Finding content about Tomoyasu Chikazoku was hard but tumblr gave me this satisfaction
(epic music)
I expected less content since a lot of people in the fandom care a lot about the characters physical appearances and he isn't the classical "beautiful anime guy".
But why mini ranting about him? Yeah chapter 378 gave me chills and also I find a lot of rants about main characters but it is difficult for side ones, that's why I'm here!
Chapter 378 left me with a bittersweet sensation: Skeptic deserved prison but I wanted him to be more a real threat as a villain, I didn't feel him a believable antagonist even if he is a side character and I think the heroes are winning to easily.
To be honest he is not even believable as the director of an important it corporation as FGI since La Brava was able to beat him twice, how can be this a great company?
perhaps one of the most common human fears failure seems to be present as an intrusive thought: Skeptic never failed, he did only once until my villain academia and yet in that arc he was so scared to not succeed in his goal, even if he always never did things that brought him to a real failure except La Brava haking his servers for the first time and the current bnha story. So, why he should be so scared about that? Of course he has a big insecurity or he wouldn't behave like this. If you are secure or self confident you shouldn't be so scared of life, not in that way, not like he is. And this realistic: a lot of people don't have a real reason to think that they are a complete failure but they still are scared and anxious to fail generally in the things of life.
It is a detail but I really found realistic some of his behaviors, because every time he fails, everytime things don't go according to his plans he seems to feel an incredible rage and anxiety, what got me was his first reaction to problems.
He immediately throws on others his responsibilities, he tries to accuse others for what went wrong trying to find reassurance from that, and it is a mental compulsion, he repeats that a lot obsessively sometimes. Also he tends to have physical rituals and specific postures(yeah the dexterity with the hands in mha ultra analysis).
Ah yes he throws on others a lot of frustration, also he doesn't like when a person immediately understands what he wants and means. I saw a lot of people doing that and sometimes it is frustrating a lot. These kind of people sometimes have really high standards on themselves and others.
So, end of the mini rant I'm just loving the wrong characters but we know, some of them were treated even worse than him(Stars and stripes I'm mourning you).
I'm supposed to be "one and done" making stupid videos and posting then before I go to bed but you know I can't resist posting another one sometimes.
Anyway, do you think they'd get high together?
I like a headcannon/theory that I'm gonna share. It's simple with not much to it but here we go.
I personally believe that before the Meta Liberation Army commanders, became commanders, that they had different personalities completely, or were much more shy/nervous/not really knowing where they fit in the world, but the MLA or Redestro gave them confidence and they adapated new personalities.
My main example of this is Chitose "Curious" Kizuki
This is younger Kizuki, from what I see she seems alot more nervous and shy (I blame this on the facial features and the blush) then the older and outgoing Curious we saw in the manga/anime-
I presume younger Curious was before she was officially a commander or hell even completely in the MLA. But the older Curious we see is a commander of the MLA.
Also we know from how Rikiya talked to her, that she originally wasn't good at capturing emotion. But she later tells Toga she "threw away all restraint long ago". This made me think that Curious changed because of Rikiya, and developed a bit of a worse personality. To me her discussion and how far she went with Toga made me think she'll do anything to get what she wants/needs, and this doesn't make me think of younger Curious at all.
Another idea I had for this that I don't have much evidence for is Tomoyasu "Skeptic" Chikazoku. We know that Tomoyasu has an intense fear of failure, and has only failed once it his life according to him (as far as I know thanks to a post, his failure was a failed IT security system for Feel Good Inc.)
I believe that before joining the MLA and/or becoming a commander, Skeptic didn't really have confidence with himself at all. I've seen some people say his upbringing must have been not to well for him to see everything as a possible failure/react so badly to failure. He's even gone close to crazy to prove he didn't fail:
This makes me feel that perhaps Rikiya saw Tomoyasu's success and wanted him in the MLA. And I believe Skeptic took it quickly as a chance to not fail again, since Rikiya praised his success and didn't criticize his failure. Hence his personality coming through as the person he is now, determined not to fail again whereas old Tomoyasu may have just accepted he was failure. This may also be part of while his personality changed, a part of his old self (his fear of failure) stayed with him.
In conclusion: This isn't a really deep headcannon/theory, but I do believe Rikiya made the members of the MLA into brand new people then what they may have been before.

The gang’s all here!
From season 5 character guide book. The stressed out CEO himself. I love him your honor.
They’re talking about their favorite things
they dancing
Finally decided this year I’d sit down and draw Valentine cards for the first time. Please take these MLA members from me. I can’t seem to focus on anything else at the moment
(I couldn’t come up with a good enough phrase for Curious ahhhhh)
fuck it homebrew boop button. reblog this post to boop the person you reblogged from.
Thr change of warren from a puppet worm to a monster to a real worm was kinda disturbing-
Yeah, watching him and Yellow have an almost Insideous-like chase scene inside the void of Yellow's mind was. A mix of terrifying and genuinely hilarious.
The transition of monster Warren to real life worm Warren is, what I imagine, an analogy of what toxic friends are really like.
They start out all weird but seemingly friendly, like Warren did, and then progressively turn into an awful monster you feel you can never be rid of.
An awful monster in your brain.
But, in reality, that person is just some pathetic little worm with a podcast that you can easily get rid of with the right help.
