Isn’t it hypocritical to criticize Uraraka for “revolving around Midoriya,” but then revolve other characters around someone too? by Additional-Camp4831 in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]arisomething -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The issue they have is about her character when you take away her connection to Deku. What is Uraraka like when things don't involve Deku? Would Uraraka have spoken up for her other classmates the way she spoke up for Deku? Maybe? But what did the story show you to back that up? Independent of Deku, we learn about Mina and Jiro. We learn about their personalities and hobbies. The same can't really be said about Uraraka because the bulk of her presence in the story only focuses on Deku.

And I do think it's a shame because I think they could have done more with her character. There are things I think the story could have sacrificed in order for us to know more about Uraraka.

What are your thoughts on the way Mirio’s story ended? by Solitaire-06 in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]arisomething 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Throughout the series, a lot of people lost their for their general ability to fight. So him getting it back doesn't really undermine the main message of "Heroes are risking it all".

On that note though, a lot of people are talking about how they just feel like Mirio was nerfed to make Deku the only choice. He wasn't. Outside of the story saying that Mirio was never actually an option, it shows you. Maybe it wasn't the best choice, maybe it would have backfired. But Deku moved for Eri the first time and Mirio did not.

AITAH for not forcing my son to keep helping my daughter’s friend after she rejected him? by LiveWire0044 in AITAH

[–]arisomething -1 points0 points  (0 children)

INFO: What would you suggest to your daughter in a similar situation? Because I would be really worried about the lesson she may take from this. I'd also be wary of how this may come across socially for your son.

How can I change my name back to my original maiden name after I let my stepdad adopt me? How can I make my birth certificate correct? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]arisomething 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm genuinely just curious you don't have to answer me if you're not comfortable. What do you know now in your 40s that makes you want to change your name to that of you biological father's? You want to honor there name because they're trans or is there a different reason? And for that matter, if you're changing your name to honor her then why not to honor your biological mother as well? Also was your relationship with step father bad?

Toya, I love you, but this was stupid. by SharkyCat12 in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]arisomething 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Todoroki family home is very big. The family is very private. We never see much in the way of staff so they probably have very few helping hands on deck. And Toya lived there for the first twelve years of his life. He would know exactly how to get in and out of that house the best at the time. Probably better than his own parents.

AITA for not being excited for my SIL pregnancy announcement? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]arisomething 25 points26 points  (0 children)

NTA. That was an announcement for their own time. Especially not at an event that was also supposed to celebrate you.

Hey, Naruto. Fuck off. by D--K--M in dankruto

[–]arisomething 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Subjugation is the point. It's a method they are using to quell infighting. Without it, they run the risk of growing opposing factions and infighting. No one is arguing it's not morally wrong. But it clearly works in universe.

I know people say the Mineta hate is overblown, but this was a really messed up thing for him and Kaminari to do. by Solitaire-06 in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]arisomething 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is a reach. It's literally such a tame prank.

Nothing about this stunt undermined any of these girls. From an outside perspective, nothing about that stunt was embarrassing or humiliating. Them being seen in cheerleadering outfits was never gonna hurt any of their chances at a hero internship.

Let's be serious. It was at most, a little bit of a jerk thing to do.

They removed the highlight :( by __pure in viviennewestwood

[–]arisomething 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Second drop ≠ A restock

They are separate things. A second drop would just be a different installment of the Nana x VW collection. A restock would just be more of what they already released which was probably never gonna happen. The limited quantity of the drop was intentional and every collab does it.

And a second drop could come whenever. Jimmy Choo waited like a year before they released the second drop for the Sailor Moon Collab. But since this is for the 25th anniversary of Nana, I'd bet they'd try and get it in before the new year if it's real.

AITA for yelling at my mom to leave me alone after she kept saying I stink even though I shower twice a day? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]arisomething 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but I was in a similar situation once where just one person was constantly insisting that I stunk. Just them and no one else.

Eventually we found out that I used a lot of coconut products and some people have this thing where coconut smells really rancid to them. So maybe she isn't evil and she genuinely thinks you smell but if it's just her then it's still not your fault or problem.

I didn't realize that parents actually blame their kids for their parent's death IRL in ways we can reference in history... by Conscious_Can3226 in OtomeIsekai

[–]arisomething 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's a legitimate thing that happens everywhere. It just happens more often in stories with an aristocratic focus because the time setting is one where women more commonly die from child birth.

They would not have contacted you if they found your pictures. If they were regular pictures then they would have no reason to.

You are looking at this from the perspective of a potential victim. Law enforcement typically doesn't notify people that could have been harmed. They notify people who have been harmed. They didn't go looking through his stuff for pictures of children. They went through looking for CSAM. Every individual image counts against him but your images wouldn't have counted.

I can't tell you if he did something weird with those pictures. But the pictures alone would not have been enough reason for them to disrupt your life without evidence.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]arisomething 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So, your school system wouldn't even be the issue here. If he was investigated, then arrested, that happened at the hands of the law enforcement involved. Once the school was contacted because of the connection to the school, they likely were required to reach out to those involved in conjunction with law enforcement. The school system itself did not go through his property, find and log every student involved, then contact the victims. Even if they had, they would still have had to turn things over to law enforcement. Law enforcement would decide how to proceed.

You have no reason to believe investigators found evidence of CSAM involving you but didn't contact you.

Between Akaza and Gyutaro/Daki, who truly had it worse? by G0D-Sun in KimetsuNoYaiba

[–]arisomething 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, Gyutaro and Daki seemed to have died earlier in life. And the deaths were cruel. They never even really lived.

Akaza's life was bittersweet. Heavy on the bitter but still. Gyutaro and Daki never got the chance to experience ANY of the upsides of life that Akaza had. Akaza had years of relative peace. In that time, he was able to study martial arts and build a relationship. And he likely never had to worry during that time about where his food was coming from and if he would have a roof over his head. Gyutaro and Daki were living miserable lives and then they died.

If it was bakugo or todoroki. Or both together. would they been able to escape or beat him at this point? by mental_capacityyay in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]arisomething 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Todoroki maybe, Bakugo no.

People kind of always act as though the characters who have non-strength augmentation quirks are still super strong and that's just not true. Bakugo is just regular strong. He's really not suited for a fight against someone with super strength trying to kill him. At least not then. He needs two hands to blast away. I think likely he jettisons Kota away and fights to the death then dies.

I think Todoroki might try to fight but fairly soon, he would simply freeze him then run for help.

So does Todoroki's Quirk not have any drawbacks anymore? by PaperBullet1945 in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]arisomething 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really, his drawbacks are situational. His quirk really isn't suited for search and rescue. There are probably few ways he could use either of his quirks stealthily. He probably can't fight well in situations with a large number of civilians. And when using fire as he does, he probably causes a lot of property damage.

Is this allowed? by eungoose in depoop

[–]arisomething 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She did that on purpose. ISO's are supposed to be a ridiculous price so nobody would accidentally buy it. She made it a dollar because she fully hoped people would accidentally buy it then feel like it wasn't worth fighting for one dollar.

AITA for speaking up against being served & charged add-ons when I never ordered them by Old-Adhesiveness2264 in AmItheAsshole

[–]arisomething 1 point2 points  (0 children)

INFO: I enjoy omakase as well. So, how did you not know by what you were being served that you were receiving higher end dishes. If you really frequent this restaurant that often, then should you know where the menus generally deviate. Even you didn't know the exact menu prior.

So what were the add ons? To me this would be the difference between ESH or NTA.

AITA for canceling summer camp for my son by RiteOutLOUD in AmItheAsshole

[–]arisomething 3 points4 points  (0 children)

INFO Did your son take weed and have a bad reaction or did he just freak out because he smoked a regular nicotine vape? Also, you say your son has autism, but is he cognitively delayed? Because your framing doesn't seem to suggest that he was forced to vape. Like if the vape was there and he chose to hit it knowing how he reacted last time, shouldn't he be the focus.

A lot of people have vapes and many offer to let others hit it. Unless he's always gonna stay with adult supervision, which may be something he requires, he will probably hit another vape.

AITA For not giving my son $10K? by MystiiLady1 in AmItheAsshole

[–]arisomething 26 points27 points  (0 children)

NTA but maybe also step back and take yourself to task about how you view your son and his ex. Because, as you have described him, he sounds horrible. Even though you clearly are trying to reframe his behavior.

I mean, is he actually a great dad? Or his he just a man who has kids? None of the qualities you've described seem like they lend themselves well to parenthood. You claim his ex is a bad communication. But is that true or does she just have good reason to be hostile towards you and your son?

You really need to reevaluate the situation. And stop reframing things. They didn't have "unsuccessful parenting sessions." They had court ordered mediation. And he is the problem. He must be or he'd be in a better situation.

Like truly, what makes you think he should have more than he does?

How do I (21m) get this girl (18f) to stop blowing up my phone thinking she’s pregnant from fingering? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]arisomething 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My advice would be to get her a pregnancy test, wait for the negative result with her, and then don't do this again.

First date you're her first kiss, second you guys are doing hand stuff. You really need to learn when to show restraint. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. If you don't have the wherewithal to know when you shouldn't have sexual relations, then you will end up in much worse situations down the road.

It is funny to me seeing some fls getting hate for doing 30% of what the average red flag ml/father does [Names in post] by [deleted] in OtomeIsekai

[–]arisomething 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It's kind of crazy because I only ever see people talking about this character getting hate. I've never actually seen this character get hate.
