honestly what cracks me up about the latest mha ep is the fact Deku was apparently watching Bakugou and Kirishima closely enough to know Bakugou Actually Likes Him, a fact Kirishima himself did not actually seem to be fully aware of
I know the answer for WHY Deku knew this is he’s emotionally perceptive and it was very noticable to someone who’s grown up with Bakugou even if you weren’t paying too much attention
but his whole breakdown of them was so specific and passionate and detailed- SINCE THE BEGINNING OF SCHOOL YOUR RELATIONSHIP HAD BEEN SLOWLY BUILDING-that the idea he’s been tracking this development with intense interest is really funny to me and honestly not too out of character.
he saw this unfolding and was SO FASCINATED to see Bakugou actually liking somebody this much, like it was this PHENOMENON he couldn’t help be riveted by both as someone who never thought this day would come and from a scholarly nerd perspective. he even took notes on their profiles in his nerd notebook. It’s something so bizarre and at odds with everything he’s known about this kid for ten years he simply must document it and attempt to understand it.
log date 847: they went on multiple study dates and Kirishima came back from them not only alive but completely unharmed. WHAT IS GOING ON . what is his secret. Must keep an eye on future developments.
He’s also got a personal stake in this because “MAYBE IF KACCHAN DATES SOMEONE NICE HE’LL CALM THE FUCK DOWN AND STOP FREAKING OUT AT ME SO MUCH. MAYBE THIS WAS THE SOLUTION ALL ALONG. I’VE HEARD IT CAN HAPPEN”.
he has hopes. he has dreams. he has a relationship chart for them and it’s a little weird.
The one thing I hate about people shipping Deku (usually with todoroki or bakugo) is that I see a lot of people make Deku kind of a wimp and a crybaby? Like ok yes deku IS a cry baby, but he also stands up for himself (and others) and is really heckin strong physically and strong willed! He’s not a scared waifish little maiden and I wish people would stop writing/drawing him that way, it’s seriously a disservice to his character.
the thing that gets me most about Kirishima’s hero outfit is that. like. he really doesn’t need one
especially not one as ridiculous as that
b/c his skin is basically armor
but no. he wants to look super manly. he wants to wear the weird face mask and the bigass shoulder gear things and whatever that thing is that goes across his chest and that ass-cape thing (that i imagine would easily get caught on stuff) and he wants to look half like he’s hiking in the snow and half whatever the fuck the upper body part of his outfit is supposed to represent
like he really doesn’t need any of this, he just wants to look cool and his idea of looking cool looks absolutely ridiculous
