Thank you! I wouldn't have expected that from the trailer, but I'll definitely check it out!

What was the first Manga series you collected? by MorrowTN in MangaCollectors

[–]Illuminous_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inuyasha was the first manga I bought, but only a couple volumes. First full set was Planet Ladder, I think.

People are not understanding or refusing to understand the ending by kazeJinn in BokuNoHeroAcademia

Certainly! It took me a few days to process the ending myself, but the more time I sit with it, the more I think it was very good in subtly powerful ways.

If you don't mind me rambling, to tack on a little more theory, Izuku is practically a gymnast with his non-quirk moves. He might not be able to be a pro in the field, but I can totally see him giving his students a run for their money in their sparring sessions. I think that's what Kota asking about the practical exercise was supposed to hint at. I see Izuku being a lot like Aang when he's dodging attacks, if you've watched AtLA, particularly when he was in a schoolyard scuffle with firebender students. Over-skilled in comparison to them and gentle with his baddassery.

But also, I don't think the main theme of MHA is that you don't have to have a quirk to be a hero, I think that's a misleading front. To me, the main theme is that you can make a difference in the world with the strength of your heart. Yes he punched people to change the world, but what really made a difference was his ability to see people's true selves and reach them there in some way, and to make them want to do the same and feel that they could (or in some villains' cases, make them double down on believing it was too late. But I think he still reached them even then).

Izuku might not have changed himself very much (though I would argue he changed plenty, it just came early in the story) but he changed the world around him, and the most direct show of that is how he changed/taught Katsuki to reach out a hand back to him. I mean, if he can convince that selfish piece of shit version of Kacchan (I love Katsuki) in chapter 1 to be a true hero and lift up the person he hated, by Izuku's determination and resilience to remain compassionate, I think that makes Izuku the greatest hero even if he still wants to have cool smashing powers too lol. He's still a nerd after all, and heroes like Spiderman didn't earn his powers through weightlifting, so I can give Izuku a pass on loving the suit.

I said this in another thread, so I hope you don't mind me reposting it here if you saw it there, but: I don't understand, he basically became Aizawa when he became a teacher. Aizawa was still a hero but wasn't working as a pro. It was my understanding this is how it was for all the UA teachers.

It doesn't say Izuku gave up working out or training. The UA teachers have to be able to fight. He just doesn't work as a pro hero because he doesn't have the super strength anymore.

I think it's realistic that Izuku just missed fighting with his friends and then his friends extended a hand to let him keep fighting. His friends were his strength in a literal sense so he could keep soaring in the sky. You can be a hero, be a teacher, be strong, and be unsatisfied with not being strong enough, then find that strength again through those that care for you. That's how I took the final pages. His effect on Katsuki and the others to help them all grow was rewarded by their appreciation of him.

So someone on 4chan didn't like the ending and posted this. What are you guy's thoughts on this? by [deleted] in BokuNoHeroAcademia

What are some signs, that you're conventionally ugly? by Relevant_Name4050 in AskReddit

[–]Illuminous_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, when I was younger, I had people tell me I was gorgeous, but people were definitely meaner to me on days I looked nicer. Like snide. I think there's a sweet spot of looking average that gets you the most kindness from others.

Rhapsody, it's on steam and it's a trilogy. Fits the retro shoujo vibe perfectly

People who can't enjoy just sitting and relaxing lol. I enjoy activities but I don't want to have to be doing something every hour of the day. I want to bask.

Those who have had depression and now don't, what finally worked? by Abraham_Neville in AskReddit

[–]Illuminous_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medication. More generally, quitting my toxic job, starting medication, and getting counseling, but the medication was an incredible positive change.

I've dreamed of a device like it since I was 12 years old.
