The ending could only suck. It was either Hori gives up on the romantic subplot with Uraraka completely which is bad because he set it up and never resolved it or he makes it go somewhere and it's also bad because Dekuraka sucks ass.
I just didn't expect Hori would do both by making a jump only ending that hides the romantic resolution away from jump readers and put it in his finished volume like he's hiding a pornmag from his mom, which is somehow even more flaky than commiting to either solution kek.

>>284544309
It's pretty straightforward if you think about it on a larger scale. Basically the cuck posting, the fast food shitpost and all of that revolve around the same basic concept which is irrefutable: at the end of his story, Deku still lacks agency in his own life.
You can see from the epilogue that adult Deku still really wants to be a hero and he still has a massive crush on Ochako but not only he couldn't get either on his own, he didn't even try over the course of 8 years. This is a parallel to how he gave up on joining UA at the very start of the series, only to be handed a glimpse of hope by AM when, by absolute chance, he showed him he had potential. Right there Deku lacked agency, was too timid to try and grasp his dreams but once given that one chance he learns to struggle with all he has to achieve those dreams and uphold his sense of justice.
However at the end, once he's depowered, he reverts to the same character he was at the beginning, basically undoing his personal growth and leaving him settle and cope with a much less than he hoped for.
He might've had a happy ending but once again it is not because he grew more confident and steadfast but only because Bakugo worked hard to get him a power suit and Ochako approached him romantically when she felt she was finally ready. These two people make him the happiest yet, on a narrative pov, they completely rob him of his agency at the very end of his journey.

>at the end of his story, Deku still lacks agency in his own life
>>
>>284548798
If he became a teacher and found himself a girl to settle down with, that WOULD be a decent ending. But that's not how the story ends, is it. You can't just pretend that he moved on from his crush instead of moping for 8 years and that what happened after the time skip doesn't exist.
>>
>>284548903
You're projecting anon
>>
>>284548798
This would be OK if that's what he wanted but it isn't. He still wants to be a hero.
>>
>>284548903
>finding a girl and settling down with her is the sole measure of success in a man's life
This is why girls don't want anything to do with you anon. You don't want to be a couple and settle down because you want to but because you were told that's what succesful men do.
When did Deku ever mention finding a girl and settling down was a goal of his?
>>
>>284549080
>>284548798
Yeah I agree. You could definitely believe him if Hori had focused on his current work and how it fulfilled him but instead he says that it fulfills him while he looks longingly at pictures of his friends living the hero life he wanted. As a result the message is undermined and it sounds like cope. It's probably not intentional too.

>>284549109
The point is that he should be the proactive agent at this point of the story. This was just one example of a conventional way to do it, there are many other that would do just as well. Being handed the happy end prize by someone else after 8 years is the issue. Just cutting that out and not changing anything else would be an immense improvement by itself.

I love how the anime made this even more explicit but we still had autists saying otherwise. Unbelievable
>>
>>284549632
My gripe is not the fulfillment Deku feels in his career. As I said, in the end he IS happy.
What I don't like is how he lacked agency in all of it. He found out he loved teaching after he had to retire as a hero and settled as a teacher. Throughout his whole journey he never even considered a teaching career but right at the end, when his preferred career got out of his reach, he simply had to change course and give up on his childhood dream.
Now, as an adult, he has found a new passion and thanks to Bakugo he gets to entertain his childhood dream too. Again, that's a happy ending but not one of his own making.
>>
>>284549610
It is. Which is why I said that it would be way better if that was the ending, instead of whatever happened after an 8 year time skip. These aren't isolated events, they're parts of a story. You can't just throw something at the end and act as if whatever came before will be unaffected.

Who are you quoting? That's the point I'm trying to illustrate that Deku was proactive even knowing that he had a time limit. The last chapter of the manga was just to illustrate that the cast needed to branch out in pursuit of what to do with their lives after hero work with Deku's teaching and Shoto going into pottery work being among the things brought up

tldr; Horikoshi is telling you to touch grass and get a hobby

The teacher job is just a cope that turned 360 degrees and walked away as soon as you see the cuck mech suit at the end of 430, then in 430.5 Dekuck is the only one capable of reprimanding the villains with his synthetic blackwhip and finally in ultra age he becomes the #4 hero and will probably end up #1. Hori completely cucked out, just let the cope go.

I hate it because instead of embracing his role as a teacher he gets a new source of power handed to him by others.
Not only it's limp dicked as fuck because it implies being a teacher is not a heroic profession, it also shows that he has zero real drive towards his goals even 10 years later.
Absolute wet fart of a "hero". Koichi completely BTFOs him in every regard both as a human being and a hero.

Cope harder. There were three possible endings:
1. The buildup in 405, 406 and 423 to Dekuck having a warrior's death and Bakugo becoming All Might 2.0
2. The chapter 1 Dekuck becomes All Might 2.0
3. Dekuck being a coping wagie with chronic pain from breaking every bone is his body for a year and a half
Hori chose the 3rd option, but he couldn't stick to it. Not only did he got the cake and he ate it too, but he ended up eating the whole damn thing because there were no consequences. It doesn't matter that Dekuck lost OFA, it doesn't matter that he was coping for 8 years and it doesn't matter because all the pros suck and Dekuck is a quirkless pro now.
>>284552023
He was inactive for 8 years and he just instantly caught up to everyone because everyone else sucks and being a teacher is actually a wagie cope for someone who peaked in high school after defeating Shiggy.

because the whole final arc was bad but also chapter 430 (the official ending, 431 is a bonus chapter) is 90% social commentary about how we live in a society and 10% likeable characters. The problem being that Hori is good at making likeable characters interact with each other and terrible at social commentary

Chapter 431 was a nice addition but it was too little too late

Deku becoming a teacher was a huge mistake, and I feel like it was only forced that way because Hori felt he needed to tie things back into UA at the end.
Deku shouldn't have become a teacher. He should have founded a Hero Agency, playing leader/dispatcher to other heroes from his class and doing everything he can to make a difference even when he (usually) isn't in a position to take to the field himself. This lets him be much closer to the action and work as a "hero" even though he can't punch gooder, lets him get support gadgets sooner, and allows him to be an inspirational figure even in his de-powered state.

Like, imagine if Deku himself never ranks because of his lack of quirk, but every time there is a crises he is on the scene helping coordinate things and pulling people out of the rubble or evacuating them to safety. Things that he CAN do, even as a normal guy. You can even choose to end on a high note saying that between Deku and his friends, their hero Agency ranks #1 in the nation. Basically sharing the #1 spot as a team instead of as a solo act.

Dispatch was an okay game, but I would gladly erase it from the timeline if it meant that I could say the truth of how MHA should have ended without people assuming I'm a low-IQ retard regurgitating the latest meme.

>>
>>284559098

The authors didn't care about the romances that led to point, they only cared about the father son story they were going to tell. The romance is utilitarian to that objective. Honestly Deku and Ochako is way less utilitarian because it's about them overcoming distance.

The point is that the author did not need to heel turn the manga into a 3DPD humiliation ritual for the ending, the rest of the manga wasn't like that and it came out of nowhere. It's clear that he based Deku and Uraraka's "relationship" off of some relationship he had in real life, or at the very least wanted to have, and lost interest in fulfilling that relationship in the manga and even tried outright sabotaging it in the ending. Of course he walked it back like a cuck, but he still tried it.

>That means Hori doesn't understand the simplest of subtext that his writing might convey
Considering all the discussion I had with people about mha this wouldn't even surprise me. Then again, we should have seen it coming from a guy who thinks a good solution to "I'm not special so I can't be a hero" is "hello shonen, here, a free "get super special" ticket, which you totally earned by the way, I'm saying this because it's true, also nepotism isn't real, viva la meritocracy!"
>>
>>284560561
Deku's dreams DID come true though. He became a hero and found a way to continue helping others like him and got the suit as a symbol of friendship and as AM's equal.
And so Hori could end the series on a "and the adventure continues" thing with a splash page of Deku and his friends as adults leaping into action that judging by original reception backfired.
>>
I believe its stupid that two adults that clearly feel attracted to each other act like shy teenagers and express their feelings just by shaking hands I mean lmao the japanese truly are fucked
>>
>>284548711
>Ochako approached him romantically
But she didn't? Deku had to ask her out despite his feelings not being explicitly romantic like hers. Blame it on the idea that women who initiate are whores or her characterization, all she did was reciprocate his advances.

if he wasn't a pitiful crybaby and actually wanted to do the teacher instead of being waiting for an handout he would be held in high regard as well

How else could he use his knowlege to help others?
This isn't Dispatch
>>
>>284572029
the problem isn't that he is a teacher, the problem is that he actually always wanted to be a hero and not a teacher and so being a teacher its just a job that he never wanted

As said before he DID become a hero and being a teacher allows him to continue AM and OFA's predecessors wishes.

Being a symbol of peace (Even though after the final war people learned to finally get off their asses and help others instead of waiting for a hero to solve everything for them.
>>
>>284572460
Deku failed then. He's not considered a symbol of peace at all.
>>
>>284572481
He did inspire everyone to help each other AND use his status and knowledge to guide others.
>>
>>284572497
Did he though?
>>
The thing with the series is that due to it's slowburn nature (Compared to something linear and more fast-paced like Demon Slayer), Hori usually took too long to properly establish significant elements to the story (Seven quirks, Deku choosing a position that allows him to guide others like his predecessors did, the UA traitor) to the point of when they DO happen, people accuse them of asspulls.
I wouldn't place him on the level of George Lucas (Has his head in his ass) or Tetsuya Nomura (Introduces random shit out of nowhere waaay to late into the series to the point if fucks up the worldbuilding and setting.) though.
>>
>>284572370

>>284572735
>AM just sacrificed his powers to put a major dent in AFO.
>Given how Deku is his successor is essentially telling him to continue his legacy of inspiring and helping others.
Deku should've said something along the lines of "I will always help others even if I lose One For All!" after his next speech with AM afterwards. Wouldn't make the teacher thing see like an asspull as much.
Same thing with how the Seven Quirks thing needed to be properly established earlier or giving better hints at who the UA traitor was (And not a nothingburger character) and at a time that would allow for it to feel more emotional instead of right before the final battle.
>>
>>284572405
Logical failure. AM is not telling Deku "Rise, young man, and take my place as a homeroom teacher at UA!" He is saying that AM's time as the wielder of OFA is now truly over, and Deku is going to have to do what he can't any more.

For AM, that meant being the Symbol of Peace, and taking on the burden of protecting the world from AFO. Importantly, AM's concept of the Symbol of Peace was well-meaning but deeply flawed, the hero system creates as many problems as it solves and carrying the stability of society on the shoulders of one dude makes for a glaring single point of failure.

Deku giving up his powers to defeat AFO is fine, that neatly closes out the AFO vs OFA conflict by removing both quirks from the board. But him becoming a teacher doesn't follow from anything AM asked of Deku. If anything, Deku becoming a teacher is him running away from the responsibilities of reforming the society that AM unintentionally created. Hawks is doing more to fix the hero system than Deku is.
>>
>>284572825
>Same thing with how the Seven Quirks thing needed to be properly established earlier

It could have been established earlier, yes, but from the MOMENT we got the backstory on what One For All actually was, the fact that Deku and Allmight *didn't* have multiple quirks was weird. Based on the explanation we were given, One For All having multiple powers rolled into one was always logically how it should have worked.
The problem isn't that Deku had seven quirks. Its that Allmight *didn't*.

Personally, I would have explained that away by simply saying that AM and Deku always had multiple quirks, but it was non-obvious. Allmight's super strength, his extremely long jump distance, his durability, etc were all distinct individual quirks that only LOOK like one quirk when you add them all together. Likewise, Allmight could have had Danger Sense the whole time and no one else would have known.

Then what you do is reveal a new quirk that is more complex and weird, like blackwhip, and have Allmight say "Yeah I had that power too, but I was really bad at it so I never used it." Because Allmight is a meathead who would rather just punch things and punching things never failed him so there was never a strong motivation for him to focus on what he considered his weakest power, leaving Deku the room to do something better than Allmight did.
>>
>>284572833
>"Rise, young man, and take my place as a homeroom teacher at UA!"
It's more "Rise, young man, and continue passing the torch (With after sacrificing OFA Deku being able to contune to guide others like AM and his predecessors did in the only option he had besides stalking kids like a creep and asking if they want to be a hero)!"

430 and 431 made it abundantly clear that even if things are more peaceful, heroes are STILL needed IE Deku and his friends stopping a landslide, stopping a robber in 431 (Though thankfully just a petty thug and not a destructive misanthropic psycho like the LOV) and being a teacher at a school for training superheroes is essentially a bootcamp.

There's also a MAJOR difference between someone teaching dopey kids about reading and math (Along with useless shit like sciense they'll likely never use, biased history lessons, boring-ass books you're gaslit into think are god's gifts to man, gender) and training the next generation of pretty much cops dealing with issues regular people can't.
Hell after the "meme" panel, Aizawa is telling Deku WHY he needs to be more strict on his students in the next panel (But burgers ignore that because they automatically means teaching is on the same level as working at Mcdonalds and the series doesn't end with everyone worshipping Deku as a god while Ochaco is sucking his dick).

>his friends bankrolled iron man suit so he can beat up some loser and THEN hit the girls
Besides he is quirkless manlet in super man society he is better off as sex buyer
>>
I know people threw a shitfit about Jujutsu Kaisen ending with Sukuna flipping off the reader, but was there any backlash about Demon Slayer's ending?
I mean except for actually having sex, Deku DID end up better than Tanjiro (Not crippled, life isn't limited, all his friends are alive, still gets to go on adventures with his friends given they're still needed and will continue to spread his experience and knowledge to future generations).
>>
Unrelated, but has anyone else started getting capchas with 5 options instead of 3? I don't know what it wants from me, because theres always multiple exceptions now instead of just one so its always unhappy with my answer.
Like, if it has 3 images with black text and two with white, the fuck does it expect me to pick?
Or "circle, circle, semicircle, rectangle, triangle". There's no pattern there!

not even accounting for Clayface the city-sized mud monster and Poison Ivy the nature goddess, who are smaller threats than just the nonpowered villains. Hell, Knuckleduster regularly btfoed Quirk users because 99% of all hero and villain quirks are weak as shit and only do 1 thing, unlike Deku's easylife nepoquirk

You can get away with your protagonist never growing or changing.
You can get away with your setting never changing or being fixed.
But for that you need a protagonist who is cool and likeable and interesting from the very start. And a setting that is perfect and needs no fixing.
Deku started off an obnoxious, spineless, pathetic MC, and he just stayed that way forever and is the exact same way at the end. Hori spent every single arc describing out loud a new way in which the MHA setting sucks and needs to be fixed, then just never fixed any of it.
like there's an excuse for Ch1 Deku never trying. He's a wuss who was always told he would never succeed without a quirk. But by the end what is his excuse? 20 years after he finds out he has no quirk and he's still a pussy who is nothing without All Might's quirk carrying him. Nothing about him as a person is special or likeable at all, just the quirk that All Might stockpiled for him.
>>
>>284586582
You do realize that the entire fucking message of the last few chapters/episodes was that there's more to being a hero than beating people up and hitting things right? Notice how in the epilogue Deku and his friends are doing things that involve helping others without hitting things?
>"Why is Superman teaching kids about fire safety?"
>"Shouldn't he be beating people up?"
>"What a fucking faggot!"
Ironically, that's usually how Marvel civillians act.

It's certainly a different feel giving up power to attain your central goal vs giving up your power to give up your central goal outside of a moment, only to get plot armored by your allies literally two panels later. We could have had Sekiro Deku at least. Or at the very very least, a quirkless guy rocking gadgets or an exoskeleton, and not an 8 year long cold shoulder with no training so he can be surprised by it followed by the suspension of disbelief of near-immediate mastery

>>284544309

>>284595003
All Deku had to do was reject the suit or take it but only because it would help with his lessons. Then you'd have a guy that actually feels fulfilled with teaching the next generations instead of a loser trying and failing to cope with no longer having a quirk

The lizard woman at the start of the Dark Deku arc. Were you even paying attention or just skipped chapters?

You do realize one of the whole fucking points of the DD arc was his friends dragging him back into traditional heroing right?

Did people really think Deku was going to keep OFA? That one movie even used one of Hori's ending ideas (Deku passing it off/sharing it to someone else like Bakugo).
