i keep seeing people saying that they killed izzy for shock value a la game of thrones and i just— not every character death is there for shock value?? just because you don't expect it doesn't mean it's specific purpose is to garner shock value.
izzy very clearly represented piracy. he was steadfast and staunch in his ways and he held onto the traditions of piracy with a TIGHT fist throughout the first season and the start of the second. not to mention, s2 was ALWAYS leading to this theme of "the end of piracy". the clues were there the whole season!!! and by that logic, if izzy = piracy, then end of piracy = end of izzy.
im not happy about his death!! im disappointed hes gone!! i loved him, he was probably my favorite character this season!! BUT i do understand why djenks did it. and it was NOT a "for shock value" kind of thing.
some people are reeeeal quick to like get super defensive and jump onto this "omg it was for shock value! there was no other purpose! what bad writing! what a bad writer!" bandwagon when things they don't personally like or agree with happen on their favorite shows, but honestly not everything you don't like is "bad writing" or "just there for shock value" or "purposeless". maybe take a couple minutes to think critically about it and to like analyze the choice within the frame of the whole season and the whole show and its themes before making those kinds of (oftentimes baseless) accusations?
it's one thing to be upset with something that happened and to not like it, and it's another thing entirely to then blame it on bad writing or a clueless, vicious writer who doesn't care about their characters or their story or their audience.

Pookie 2 cause Olibear (get it?.. oliver and bear) anyways, they'll be so cute. Pookie x Pookie and honestly even though Carlos is a gentleman I can see him bringing little stark down cause the media is constantly talking about her and their family unlike before it was the sainz and SAINZ ONLY. He'll talk bad things about little stark but then like Carlos Sr is going like "we can't fight them they have more power" resulting to Carlos being more mad iyk. Then, we have olliee the pookiest of all pookie..he's so cute, protective but not possessive, will definitely brag to his friends that the girl she's dating is out of his league but chose him anyways. When little stark wins the race he has that little smug on his face like "yes, that's my girl no one else's". Even before they dated he's talking about her constantly so when news came out that they were seen together people just assume they're the best of friends and stuff. because of this Ollie is sulking cause everyone thinks he's just friendzoned and no one actually has faith in him that he can bag a girl like little stark
smitten in love Ollie x shining little stark
-🧸❤️
referring to this post
OLIBEAR!!!! OLIBEAR YES YES YES (this is now little stark's pet name for him, thank you sm anon) also welcome hehe, i assume you'll be the 🧸❤️ anon?
pookie x pookie fr, because they're each other hype(wo)men, they're so down for each other it's almost disgusting but it's just cute
also carlos. carlos has an ego and unlike ollie, he will not admit defeat or that someone is better than him who he thought previously is worse (not that ollie would ever think that but you get what i mean) i just know he gets the scolding of the century from his father because he can't help but talk shit about little stark
ALSO YES!! ollie would brag about little stark sm!! to his friends, his family, his team, ANYONE! it's always "my gf this, my gf that" and there are two reactions: 1. they think ollie is the biggest simp, 2. they think his gf is imaginary because he never told anyone WHO exactly his gf is
in an interview he gets asked how he will celebrate his podium and with the biggest grin and without shame he will say "with my gf" thinking innocenct thoughts like eating out with their families, cuddling to sleep and just enjoying their time. WHILE everyone else just goes "HUH?? DID HE JUST SAY THAT" because they all assume little innocent ollie bearman is doing the deed with his infamous gf
little stark gets asked for a comment and she will fluel the rumors abt them being best friends with a blinding smile and "i really hope he enjoys his time with his gf, very happy for him and his partner"
just you wait until it finally gets revealed that it's little stark
smitten in love ollie x shining little stark.... so beautiful. so so beautiful

forcing aki to become my sugar baby/stay at home wife
i WILL treat him good
no because I need to make him my wife so badly and no-one understands
stay at home housewife aki... you spoil him so much and make sure he never has to worry about a single thing. he spends his time at home cooking or doing chores or learning and enjoying all of the hobbies he never got to when he was a devil hunter. sometimes he's almost overwhelmed with how much love and care you give him. he was certainly confused at the beginning of your relationship when you'd constantly shower him in gifts and presents and things he doesn't even know what to do with. but he's so grateful for you, he loves you and appreciates everything you've given him more than anything in the world. hopefully, he'll be able to give you a comfortable home and lots of love in return.
he's just so cute and husbandly I must put a big shiny ring on his finger at ONCE

In BLT Jamie’s really jumping from Roy will murder me if he finds out about the guy at the gay bar even though Keeley was fine with it and he has no reason to get to have a say in it when it first happened
To Roy can’t find out about the guy at the gay bar because I panicked and lied and pretended I hadn’t kissed a guy as an excuse to kiss him later on
To now bitchily responding to a tweet whining about Keeley with “yeah she makes out w roy in front of me. and??? whats ur point??? i made out w a guy she helped pick out in front of her too. what fucking of it????? r u gonna cry abt that too?????”

my best friend and i keep disagreeing on this and i wanna hear other people's thoughts on it. let's say two hetero people, both financially stable, go on a date at a restaurant or something, they're interested in each other and maybe the date goes well.
please reblog and elaborate if you'd like!
her point is that the guy should provide for his date and pay for the whole thing, especially if he's the one who asked her out.
we both agree that it's a nice gesture and it's not really about the money.
where i lose her, however, is that i think it's fine to split the bill. and if things get serious and the two are that interested in each other i think it's fine for the woman to pay the whole bill as well

Honestly I think the saddest thing in bnha is that we don't really know when does canon diverge from our time. Like...
What if it was when people were waiting for a game to come out and then it didn't since quirks were more important and then in was more important to promote heroes
There's definitely some games that survive that we know it from LoL reference from Tomura, but what about other games?
Maybe indie games are the ones trying to be "like in the old times" before quirks exist, but then authors get canceled for making a person use abilities that look like usual quirks while the protagonist doesn't have any and that's bad since players can't associate themselves with the main character
Because yeah they clearly don't have quirkless people anymore
I'm really curious what is considered old in this manga in terms of games. Like afo and Yoichi clearly had some 60-70s style comics, soo?
