Would YOU like a casual hangout/rp server with a focus on BnHA OCs?

Come join my server! It's all about casual RP and accepts both canons and OCs (dupes are okay, literally no issue with those) and strives to provide a place for anyone to just vibe in!

Tetsu: For the most part, everyone in 2-B gets along well! 

You know, an interesting tumblr transformation that's happened gradually, and which I've seen no one talk about: ask-culture has essentially dropped off to nothing.

By which I mean, asks used to be WAY more of the tumblr economy. They used to be more common to send, and receive, and see. They were integral to the collaborative, forum-like behavior of old tumblr communities, not even to speak on the HUGE number of ask-blogs that used to exist to only be interacted with in ask-form.

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

「 The radio faded into white noise and Shimi stands alone in the family store. Surely, she just heard wrong. It wasn’t UA students attacked by villains, right?」

// Explanation of what’s going on below the cut! 

// This takes place during the Forest Training Arc, the Summer Camp! For some extra context, Shimi and Tetsutetsu have known each other for a month or two now. Following the Sports Festival, they met properly (it was answered before, but it was when Shimi and Tetsutetsu both wanted to buy the last copy of a game) and due to the circumstances became gaming buddies.  Over that time, the two have grown closer over a shared love of video games until something akin to best friends and Shimi also got to meet a few of the students in 1-B!

Come time to the Summer Camp, Shimi knows they’re all going off somewhere for some kind of Hero Course-related thing. So, when she hears about the incident in the forest in the few days after, she understandably, freaks!

there is also things to be said about these people being her first real friends since basically elementary school

So like any emotionally stunted 16-year old when they hear their friends may or may not have been hospitalized, Shimi bolts out from her house, full of concern and basically bumbles around the area in an attempt to find the hospital they are all in, to like properly wish them good recovery and also figure out if she needs to mourn a death.

on bakugous hero name

[ SPOILERS FOR MY HERO ACADEMIA CHAPTERS CHAPTER 293 maybe beyond ]

Okay so like I said I was going to write that post about Katsuki Bakugou’s hero name some time ago, anyways I’m getting around to doing that right now! So we need to address something vitally important that I should’ve done earlier but now is an apt time as any. 

“Ground Zero” as a fandom hero name for Bakugou is something I am personally chill with. It is, however, no longer chill with it when people say things like “Bakugou’s hero name should have canonically been ‘Ground Zero”. 

I really don’t think I need to get into the reason why, but I’ve been proven wrong already so we have to do this now. 

My Hero Academia (Boku no Hero Academia) is a JAPANESE anime and manga series.

“Ground Zero” is defined as “the point on the Earth’s surface closest to a detonation“ when used in relation to large bombs and nuclear weapons

For those who do not already see where “Ground Zero” maybe being an issue as a canonical hero name I will go more in-depth.

Japan suffered two nuclear bombings in August of 1945 at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Furthermore, as a result of the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, the cooling system at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant had a meltdown causing everyone within 10km to have to be evacuated (at the time of writing, I do not believe people have been allowed back into this area). 

Alright now lets get into the meat of this.

“Ground Zero” is a term highly, highly associated with nuclear weaponry and other weapons of mass destruction when discussing bombs and such. Guess which country has actual generational trauma relating to the destruction of their cities and home via bombs? Japan!

Guess which hero name would be the WORST name that has bombing connotations to give to an audience that in recent history of having to live through horrible nuclear events, and have a horrible history regarding bombing and nuclear bombing in particular? Ground Zero!

And before anyone! Brings up the prototype design sheet of Bakugou, this picture! 

Just because this prototype design says “CODENAME: 爆心地” which does indeed translate to “center of explosion; hypocenter; ground zero”, that does not give you any reason to not consider the emotional impact that it potentially has towards a full on generationally traumatized society. 

Unless, of course, you truly do not care about people for who this media is directed towards because you know insensitive western-centric mindsets who don’t actually care about people other than themselves and their own enjoyment topped with a likely, extremely U.S. mindset that nukes are just “good”. 

Frankly, I would like to also discuss the implications of this mindset possibly stemming from anti-Asian discrimination or a fetishization of some sort or general disrespect for the literal people that this work of media is intended for, but I don’t quite know how to word it nor do I have the patience to make it easy for everyone to understand. Hopefully people still understand it anyways.

tl;dr: it’s a highly self centered and culturally ignorant thing to say that “Ground Zero” should’ve been canon for Bakugou’s hero name, which takes absolutely no care for the generational trauma of the Japanese who have suffered due to horrific bombings. fandom name? a-okay by me. Bitching that the name isn’t canon? leave!

🌌Favorite alternate version of the muse?

//M mmm. … I gotta say, I really really love my Married Life AU for Shitetsu. Technically it’s my canon for where I want the two to end up, but it’s just SO GOOD!

If there had to be a second choice, it’d be my Monster Hunter AU!

Let’s Have a Talk, I’m Sorry 👊🔥💧

⁣An exploration of trauma, from a pretty happy-go-lucky guy!

There is no exploration or anything of the fight between Shouto and Tetsutetsu not to mention the ramifications of it! Needless to say, Shouto came near to killing Tetsutetsu, and I as a creator who loves a good ol’ trauma exploration am not going to pass this chance up to explore the physical and mental ramifications that fight had!

⁣Note: This is based on the manga, as this was months before the airdate of Episode 96, and thus addresses things differently than may have been if it were finished after the airing.

⁣Shouto in this case does not tell Tetsutetsu only, “Get away.” (anime only) But tells him instead, “Get away, unless you wanna melt.” (manga translation) 

⁣These comics are based on an exploration of real world science applied to the world of Shounen in BnHA and its ramification.

pt. 1 (not really, but in my oc timeline, they are connected)
