I love that "Donki Oote" is a parody of the actual convenience store chain named "Don Quixote"

2024-01-25 21:49:25 +0000 UTCI don't think your opinion is inherently wrong, but it's may be premature. In fact, I think it touches on one of the core reasons the Villains are written the way they are, the thing you're feeling in these moments is what Shiggy and them feel. But, if you continue further down into the story, that gets addressed!

2023-07-25 16:06:59 +0000 UTC@JHow Even tho I somewhat agree with some of your points, like the main characters in this arc being selfish and irresponsible, I don't agree with your overall conclusion that the show is presenting their behaviour as heroic. The exploration of what it means to be a hero is one of the main themes of this show and it's examined through the lens of heroes-in-training that are gradually faced with increasing challanges to their views on heroism. In introducing characters like Endeavour and Bakugo (that are trying to claw their way to the top simply so that they can be the guy on top) the show is validating the critique that the villans are aiming at society, even if that critique is often made in bad faith and does not justify their acts of terrorism. Thay being said what makes someone enjoy a show is completely subjective and you dont't deserve any hate just because you have an unpopular opinion. Unfortunately some fanbases tend to turn their passion into toxicity.

2023-07-24 13:50:51 +0000 UTCIt's basically an argument between idealism and pragmatism. On one hand if "heroes" are compensated for their work it corrupts the ideological meaning behind the word, and by extension the hero community at large. On the other hand if "heroes" don't have to worry about putting food on the table they can spend more time and energy doing heroic things. Both arguments are valid in their own way.

2023-07-23 18:08:39 +0000 UTCTo an extent in with you on the compensation thing. But at the same time, they are out there risking their lives and saving people. Does the fact they are doing it for money really matter to the people they save? And shouldn't someone doing that be able to provide for themselves and their family?

2023-07-23 17:43:47 +0000 UTCTo add on to "they are teenagers, of course they are acting based on their emotions rather then logic. " In Deku's case, dude as a complex about saving people that would make Kaladin Stormblessed tell him he taking things too far. The fact that Deku will rush into things without thinking to help someone has been both one of his greatest strengths, but also something he constantly gets in trouble for due to being so laser focused on a single target he fails to consider anything else that might get messed up from him doing this the way he is

2023-07-23 17:41:06 +0000 UTCthe kids dont know about any clear plan to rescue bakugo. They know that the police and heroes have a tracer, that is attached to a Nomu. The Kids where never told, when the heroes are going on the rescue mission. Or how far they are on finding bakugo. Even the press conference was made to muddle the information that the heroes have on the league. Yes it is selfish, but not entirely. They want to safe Bakugo, because he is in serious trouble, and a friend / classmate. Is it a good idea? Not really, but teenagers overestimating their abilities? 100% true They think they can sneak in, and out. i would like to know what other situations you mean that are close to this

2023-07-23 17:34:07 +0000 UTCI agree with you in theory, but this is a show about teenagers (Not exactly the most emotionally mature/stable people) who are obsessed with becoming heroes, which in this world has basically became another word for vigilante. The perfect example of this is Bakugo, who acts like a complete asshole but still thinks he can be a hero like that, because the only thing he thinks a hero has to do is beat up bad guys. Stain's whole thing was about how the word "hero" has lost all meaning, and these kids see that as completely normal. Now this might not have been intentional and I'm just seeing what I want to see, but I think these kids acting selfishly thinking they're being heroic completely fits in with the overarching theme of the title "hero" being twisted and corrupted.

2023-07-23 14:30:40 +0000 UTCThey're teenagers with super powers and righteous hearts, of course they're gonna act against the letter of the law to save their friend, and even then they make a point to avoid fighting and getting in the way of the pros. It'd be a pretty boring show if the main kids had to sit on the bench for their own safety while the adults went to deal with all the real issues.

2023-07-23 13:56:33 +0000 UTCthis is a bit of a difficult topic to talk about. i'm not necessarily the best at putting my thoughts into words and this is quite an unpopular oppinion, so much so that i've almost always received nothing but universal blind hatred for bringing it up, but i just can not not talk about it... this arc is the moment where I really started to dislike most of the characters of the show and the show in general. i can simply not ignore the fact how absolute selfish and immature theses people are acting moving forward. selfishness is one of my absolute biggest pet peeves and the one trait i'm the least likely to forgive in a person, especially in so called "heroes". oh sure, in the context of the show their actions are framed as heroic, and, as the main characters of the story, everything is gonna work out for them at the end, but let's put the rose colored glasses away for a moment and look at what's actually going on. these guys know that the heroes and police are working together to try and safe bakogou. they know that they spent who knows how long to come up with a plan to try and save him, that requires teamwork and perfect coordination from everyone involved. and yet, despite knowing all of that, these "heroes" decides to barge in anyway, potentially ruining all the efforts all the pro heroes and police put into creating and executing their plan to save bakogou, by throwing in an unknown factor that could mess with the plan in a myriad of ways. and for what reason are they doing this exactly? do they actually have a good reason to be there? do they know some important secret knowledge that they absolutely needs to share with the heroes/police right that moment? do they have some unique ability that absolutely requires them to be there for the plan to work? no, they don't. all the reason they have is "I'm really frustrated because I failed to save bakogou" and that's enough reasoning for these "heroes" to disregard and potentially ruin the efforts of everyone else, simply because they lack the ability to deal with their emotions. they aren't being heroic in that moment, they're just selfish pricks. all the care about is to make themselves feel better about themselves, no matter how that's gonna effect anyone else around them. it's a pattern that unfortunately repeats itself over and over again going forward in the story. the group encounters something, can't emotionally deal with the situation and forces everyone else to bend backwards to accommodate them. not because their skill are absolutely needed or it would make sense for them to be involved - quiet the opposite actually, as most situations realistically, without the power of plotarmor to make everything work out well for the main characters in the end, would only suffer from having a bunch of untrained amateurs present, who only slow down everyone else because they haven't had the proper training to deal with those situation yet, putting everyone around them at risk as they have to compensate for their lack of knowledge and training -, but simply because they can't emotionally deal with the situation and feel really, really bad. it's not heroic, it's just being selfish af and i'm glad tsuyu actually called them out on it. i guess there is reason why she is my favourite after all. (i guess so did ida and momo to some degree, yet not only are they not doing anything about it, they are even enabling their bs with their actions.) i don't know, maybe i'd be more forgiving if this wasn't a show about heroes, but, as far as i'm concerned, due their actions here and in the future almost everyone in this show absolute fails at being a hero and should have been kicked out of UA trice over for all the selfish and irresponsible bs they pulled. but hey, that's just my take. if you still manage to enjoy the show despite all of that, good for you.

2023-07-23 13:52:18 +0000 UTCMan I cannot wait for the next two episodes. The artwork and cinematography are so beautiful; I think Alicia will have a lot of fun analyzing them after recovering from the actual nonstop anxiety attack of the show.
