I saw your post about Bones missing canon details about Bakugo. I don't watch the anime though. What did they do?

It's subtle, and were it not for the weird filler leading up to this I wouldn't have bothered to make note of it.

I feel like the manga made a very specific point of drawing Katsuki as having a separate reaction from all the other students. His reaction in the manga is one of fear and apprehension, whereas in the anime now he’s just as confused about Izuku’s words as the rest of them. Maybe the anime felt like this highlight would be too much of a giveaway, but to me this moment has twofold significance:

1. It underlies the subtle hints that Katsuki stands as one of Shigaraki’s main opponents (if not THE main opponent).

2. It builds on the arc of how Katsuki is the only one in on the One For All vs All For One secret.

This change makes him look clueless and incompetent, when we all know he’s FAR FROM those things.

Like I said, it’s subtle. I wouldn’t normally care on this level. But it’s there and it’s compounding with all the other weird little things the anime has done so far...

PLEASE let it just be a one-off oversight. PLEASE.
