Not y'all still popularising this idea that Deku always fought alone and doesn't know how to work in a team
Deku WAS working with endeavour and the other heroes until erasure shut off and Shiggy was about to dust them, that's when he took Shigaraki up to the sky.

No one is saying deku isn't flawed but y'all are revolving this entire opinion around bkg getting hurt and not Deku's low self esteem + self destructive tendencies- which is what those chapters were battling
And you wonder why it pisses people off when you bring up this take
And you wonder why it pisses people off when you bring up this take
When bkg followed him he literally did NOT object or send him back, you wanna talk about them fighting alone?? Why is no one criticising bkg for not notifying the heroes despite *knowing* that deku was going to fight the most dangerous person in japan at that moment??
Didn't even try to stop him just followed him and even encouraged him to move faster with the intention of also getting one in with shigaraki but none of yall ever mention this
gee I wonder why
gee I wonder why
The first thing "mr. I always work alone" did was to contact who?? ENDEAVOUR and literally ASK to stay in contact, he told endeavour everything even shiggy being after him.
And his original motive was not to fight but to lure Shigaraki away from his friends and the civilians
And his original motive was not to fight but to lure Shigaraki away from his friends and the civilians
Deku was trying to protect people and he KNEW he couldn't do this alone and he contacted his mentor knowing they'd be in close range
He stayed down when gran torino told him to UNTIL aizawa was in danger then he AND bkg went forward and said it was their turn
He stayed down when gran torino told him to UNTIL aizawa was in danger then he AND bkg went forward and said it was their turn
They both moved to protect Aizawa, Sick of y'all criticising Deku and removing bkg from the narrative cus he got uwu impaled, tell me which one was the lone wolf who usually refused to work in teams? Cus somehow Deku was the only one being reckless and doing stupid shit
After that all their attempts were LITERALLY, deku coming in with the assist for Endeavour. Endeavour packing all his fire power into his punches while Deku restrained Shigaraki
They were all working together while erasure was keeping Shiggy at bay, Deku was not doing it alone
They were all working together while erasure was keeping Shiggy at bay, Deku was not doing it alone
He was LISTENING, he was taking ORDERS, he MOVED back when they told him to
His PRIORITY then wasn't defeating Shigaraki it was protecting everyone, including the heroes who were in battle with Shigaraki at that moment until everyone got hurt
His PRIORITY then wasn't defeating Shigaraki it was protecting everyone, including the heroes who were in battle with Shigaraki at that moment until everyone got hurt
Even after they lost erasure the first thing he did was ascertain the state of his teacher because he was worried AND he was leaving it to others cus Shoto entered the battle field at that moment
Gran torino has literally gotten impaled too, he was already under so much stress
Gran torino has literally gotten impaled too, he was already under so much stress
THIS was when Deku finally STARTED fighting alone, when Shigaraki was about to set off a new wave of decay that would've k1lled all of them and made him untouchable cus trying to get into his space while he decayed everything was a su1cide mission, then he took him up to the sky
The circumstances? Aizawa was down, erasure was gone, Ryukyu was unconscious and injured, Gran torino was dying (mf should've d1ed
), bakugou's explosions weren't doing nothing if Endeavour didn't follow them up and endeavour was overheating- if Shoto didn't follow them
), bakugou's explosions weren't doing nothing if Endeavour didn't follow them up and endeavour was overheating- if Shoto didn't follow them
Chances were He would've been out of commission, what was rock lock and manual gonna do?? Parkour?? And Shoto just joined in, he was the only one with first aid and THATS what they prioritized him for
So YES, Deku had no choice, y'all wanted him to run?? And then what?.
So YES, Deku had no choice, y'all wanted him to run?? And then what?.
Cus you bring up this argument over and over again and don't give him any alternatives, if He ran- Shiggy sets off a new wave of decay the heroes d1e and then Shigaraki follows him cus Deku can't hide from his radar
If he stayed and did nothing everyone d1es!
If he stayed and did nothing everyone d1es!
Everyone dy1ng was the conclusion no matter what he did and he made his choice then and there under the extreme pressure + stress he was already feeling coupled with the fact that he never takes himself into consideration- and that's why what he did was dangerous
It was never just the fact that he did it alone or was trying to get all the smoke, it was terrifying because deku did not give a shit about himself in that moment
Bkg was worried cus Deku was prepared to D1E if that's what it took, and he knew it. Rock lock too, they ALL saw it
Bkg was worried cus Deku was prepared to D1E if that's what it took, and he knew it. Rock lock too, they ALL saw it
And even then the first thing he did was to take them all of the ground and then he set the heroes down on the ground cus even then he was prioritizing their safety over everything else but lets ignore this shall we
He NEVER gave into his rage UNTIL AFO made those comments
He NEVER gave into his rage UNTIL AFO made those comments
He wasn't wrong, WHO ELSE could've done it? Shiggy was about to set off decay again, what could they have done? What plan could they have come up with in that moment of insane stress? Y'all wanted him to stay floating discussing battle strategies until shiggy found his bearing??
Y'all bring this up every time and never bring up any counters to his words, you say he did have a choice but don't bring up the choices he did have, so WHAT, what exactly was the right choice in that moment? He should've stayed floating with a quirk he just unlocked??
He should've left Shiggy on the ground & increased their already staggering casualties?? He should've discussed battle plans with the heroes that were already down?? Exactly WHAT, what should he have done, what was the alternative choice
Who else could've kept Shigaraki at bay?
Who else could've kept Shigaraki at bay?
Shoto with the ice that Shiggy could decay or is it the fire that regen could battle? Bakugou and his fireworks that's off shiggy's radar? Endeavour and his overheating body? Rock lock and manual parkour buddies? The unconscious trio Ryukyu, Aizawa and Torino?? WHO?????
He didn't do it alone until he had no choice but y'all erased the entire battle up until chapters 284 and 285 and centered everything around bkg's words cus of course explosion king could not have been biased and his injuries are the center of everything that happened infight
Deku does have a problem with relying on people, that's a bloody fact you cant lie about but yall erase the cause of it- the bullying and water it all down to it just being "deku stubborn and deserves consequences"
When the entire thing should be centred around
When the entire thing should be centred around
His self-destructive tendencies, piss poor self preservation and His overwhelming insecurities, the big 3- inferiority complex, imposter syndrome and low self worth/ esteem
Which was what was outlined in those chapters and the true cause of everything that happened
Which was what was outlined in those chapters and the true cause of everything that happened
But y'all never like pointing it out cus it would mean accepting that the bullying did affect him and for various stupid reasons yall always be reluctant to
Y'all reduced the entire thing to a "rage moment" when it was never fueled by rage but the desperation to protect
Y'all reduced the entire thing to a "rage moment" when it was never fueled by rage but the desperation to protect
All the stress and even his rage came from his inability to efficiently protect the people around him not his powerlessness against Shigaraki
He didn't lose his mind and wasn't punching blindly, even while he was up there he made sure all his 100% smashes DID NOT

Affect that people that were on the battle field, he was constantly thinking and taking everything into consideration until he was not
and that did not happen until AFO said all the bloodshed was meaningless. It's irritating how y'all constantly water down

Deku's actions or the circumstances around his actions and only pick the narratives that suit whatever you wanna push
The whole Deku vs Shigaraki fight that was also a battle of Deku's flaws and insecurities watered down to the rage moment of a stubborn boy
The whole Deku vs Shigaraki fight that was also a battle of Deku's flaws and insecurities watered down to the rage moment of a stubborn boy
And you wonder why people get pissed off when y'all bring these things up
Its cus y'all never take Deku's characterisation into consideration and only focus on the 'flaws' your favorite character points out but then again, y'all never understood his character to begin with
