    Actually, I like that even All for One and All Might aren't as one-dimensional as you can think at the beginning. All Might can't protect every single person that is in danger and basically just creating an illusion that everyone are safe, and All for One cares for Tomura and ready to sacrifice himself for him.

    As far as I'm concerned, MHA is all about the protagonist (Deku), antagonist (Shigaraki) and rival (Bakugo)'s growth and conflicts.
    They are not perfect to leave room for their growth and them slowing learning to become the heroes and villains of legend is a big part of what's charming about this series I'd say.

    I enjoy that the line of heros and villians values blur the line of what is right and wrong. There is more of a grey area in ideology where it is hard decide who really is on the right side of the argument. Conflict breeds change and can force someone to rethink their position.
    As always, thank you for the great content. Look forward to the next episode.

    I think another big thing in my hero academia world is the whole idea of ranking heroes. Let's look at All might his idea is to be a symbol of peace NO. 1 hero of course it has an amazing effect on scaring villains and motivating new generation, but when you create a ranking system and then you but an unbeatable boss on top of it it will also cost some problems just look at Endeavor. No. 1 hero is supposed to inspire new heroes while No. 2 hero is supposed to strike fear in villans. When you spend filling that role for two decades, of course, it starts to effect your personal life. Endeavor spend his whole life on improving his quirk and body (maybe even more than All might just look at the size of his body it is almost equal to All mights) but sadly the difference between their quirks was too great. He was the only one trying to surpass him and you know how the public reacted to his endeavors? They were laughing that he is even trying. So Endeavor to fulfill his goal of surpassing All might did the only thing he could find a wife with a quirk that could get rid of his weakness and train his child. And they kinda said that at the beginning it was an actual love they had, but after three failure he had to be getting pretty desperate after all he put like ten years of his life into this instead of trying some other way.
    A lot of people hates Endeavor but nobody actually tries to imagine them selfs in his position.

    I mostly just love how (it's similar to Attack on titan in this regard and thats my favourite manga) that its not straight up good versus bad. The Villains are shown to not be purely evil, a lot of their beliefs and ways to crime are "justified". There's so much criticism of hero society and heroes, We are made to sympathise with both parties for different reasons. Many other series give us barely a glimpse of the villains side and focus purely on the heroes while we know the thoughts, developments of personalities, ideals and changes within them of the villains. We get to make up our own minds on who we love rather than being forced to just love the heroes. Especially love how much more intense the characters are and how realistic they are regardless of things like quirks and strengths. At first MHA is easy to just ignore as a typical shounen with no depth but then you realise that its reflective of irl in many ways especially with discrimination and hatred still being one of the biggest problems in their universe despite nearly everyone having abilities. The heroes and training are not completely superhuman, quirks have their advantages and disadvantages. Most can permanently damage the holder, some are basically useless.
    And how you can see Horikoshi's storyline developing from basic to well thought out and intense.

    The difference between stain "creating a strong society without false heroes" and shigaraki "creating a world without all might"
    (who reminds me the difference between pain "A world where everyone shares the same pain" and tobi "creating a world where the hatred doesn’t exist" in terms of ideals)

  • @BelieveIt1051
    @BelieveIt1051 6 років тому +1

    I have a remark about mid/late-season 2, because this might help answer the question of what makes a hero or villain. Dog-face just visited Izuku, Shoto, and Iida in the hospital, and he tried saying they were all at fault for using their quirks to injure Stain. Apparently there's some law that says you can't use your quirk to injure others unless you're a pro, and I was thinking such a law would only apply to cases in which ANYONE harms another with their quirk intentionally, and especially for the purpose of causing harm. Unintentional harm would be addressed by a different law.
    However, none of this should apply to cases of self-defense or saving others. Also what about all of them having provisional hero licenses? Also, I don't remember All Might's cop buddy giving this speech to any of the students who fought villains at the USJ.
    Native and Iida are alive because the three students decided to use their quirks. A murderer is off the streets because the three students decided to use their quirks. I doubt the law restricts that, but any law that does isn't one worth having or following because it's no law at all. Does that make a hero a villain? So what decides who is a hero or villain? The screwy laws, probably. Beyond that, it's intent of the individual.

    This is exactly what I have been notice about My Hero Academia not everyone is one dimensional they all have negative and positive sides to them. I feel empathy for alot of the Villians in the series well of course I dont always agree with there actions for example i wasnt happy when he went on a hero killing spree but i did agree with not wanting Heroes in the society who dont care for the lives of others only money.
    Endeavor in my opinion is my second favorite character I feel empathy for him he has worked harder than All Might to get where he is now and is still trying to top him and spent pretty much most of his life doing so. I really do think that Endeavor does care about Todoroki, of course i didn't agree with how he treated him as a kid but i think Endeavor does love and care about Todoroki.
    Stain
    okay I know alot of people might not agree with me on this one but I feel empathy for Stain I mean i didn't like how he handled ridding the world of fake heroes by going on a killing spree but I did get that he was one of the people to notice that there are alot of heroes in the MHA society who care more about money than saving people another that noticed societies problems was Bakugo's mother Mutsuki. But in My Hero Academia Vigilantes i think it was volume 2 but we see that Stain is still aware of problems around him I dont like how he handles these things but im kinda glad that he was one of the villians in this series to notice stuff like this and that.
    And also I not very happy with ranking heroes I just think it causes problems in the MHA community.
    In my opinion I don't think there is such thing as Good and Evil in the world (besides All for One) I think its just that people look past there positive intentions and focus on the negative things that there doing like how alot of the Heroes at the UA Sports Festival Arc when Bakugo went on a rage and people assumed he would be a villain he is just misunderstood, Also when Bakugo was captured and Aizawa stuck up for Bakugo when the Media said "Kidnapping him with deceitful words and dyeing him with the path of evil, what evidence do you have for saying that he has a future?" then Aizawa tells him that Bakugo works harder than anyone in pursuit to becoming the top hero and basically tells them that they are fools for short sighted.

    Especially considering today's ridiculous political climate, I wish I had gotten into My Hero before graduating, so that I could enjoy writing about 20 pages worth of the ethical ideologies explored in this franchise, tbh.

      @@TruthHero I know omg especially considering how popular MHA is (and is still becoming) in the US. I definitely wrote a paper for an aesthetics course where an example from My Hero would've totally been relevant.
