It's me Lady, it's been a while. ;) I hope you're doing amazing! Having beautiful days and peaceful evenings, sleeping well, and staying hydratedππ
I hope you don't mind if this message feels too personal, and if it bothers you, please do ignore it.
I don't know if you've seen anything about the final chapter yet. And I, of course, do not want to spoil.
And I do sincerely hope you see the official chapter before this, so that my words makes sense. I guess I just want to say I'm feeling very overwhelmed about MHA ending, it's the most precious show to me . And especially Izuku's conclusion and how Horikoshi went about it. Again, I won't spoil of course but I guess I'm a bit disappointed.
I don't know, but something in me wanted your opinion and thoughts on the ending and Izuku's story's conclusion. Since, through reading your In another Life series fanfictions, I felt more connected to my favs (Izuku and Katsuki). Your writing gave me a new way of looking at their dynamic, story, and what a future for them entails with everything that they are and aren't.
I was actually avoiding the leaks because I wanted to at least read the official chapter when it's out since it is the last. So that I can honor it on a way. But one thing led to another by a simple scroll through tiktok.
Anyways, when I saw the panels I guess I thought "I would like to write him a hundred other happy endings". I say "other" because he's clearly happy in the conclusion, even with everything that happened (OFA and Tenko's conclusion mostly). But still, the thought came up.
And then I actually remembered your drabble of Izuku and his child, the "he will be your husband's biggest heartache" one, and I don't know, I guess I really wanted to ask you.
Thank you for staying with me. I hope you have a day filled with happy wishes. ππ
It's me Lady, I half-hope you see this ask before my other previous one that I sent. This one might be long too, so sorry in advance. And thank you for taking the timeβ₯οΈ.
It has been plaguing my mind. I was really emotional about the ending and had alot to get off my chest, I ended up writing all that to you. I feel so embarrassed, and I could have worded it better.
I really just want to clear out a few things π
. If you don't mind. I am not the kind of fan to put dirt on the author her/himself no matter how unsatisfied I am with a part of their story. I hope I didn't imply that in my previous ask about the ending and Izuku's conclusion (I barely remember much of what I said π)
Secondly, while 8 years is a huge gap, getting to see pro-hero class A was so surreal, in a "proud parent" way π₯Ή. I think I implied I wanted ur thoughts on the could-be-considered unsatisfactory parts of the ending. But I actually meant as a whole. Eri grown up also had me so proud and happy! She deserves to live a normal teenager girl life π©·.
Bonus points pro hero Bakugou looking gorgeous as always π€. Kind of fills the picture for me now whenever | read pro-hero au fanfiction.
And the way he paid the most out of the class A alumni for Izuku to have a hero suit so that he could he a hero, and they could compete with one another again is so sweet.
But again, to make my point clear. I would love to hear your thoughts personally on everything that the ending, please.
I hope you have a wonderful day ππ
Lady! Lilium. Lady Lilium. π₯Ή Hi!!! Please donβt feel embarrassed!!! π₯Ί Your asks actually let me feel relieved, lmao, because it meant I wasnβt alone in theβ¦ idk! topsy turvy feelies that the leaks had caused. π₯Ή If thereβs one thing I wonβt miss itβs the entitlement that causes leaks to breach containment and ruin everyone elseβs day. π But!! Lili, how are you feeling on the other side of the official release??? For me personally it was likeβ¦ a sense of relief, lmfao, like no matter my nitpicks about things (I do think the epilogue in general was rushed, and iβm kinda like πππ over class aβs decision not to tell their friend about their goal to fund his iron man suit, lmao. thereβs surprises and then thereβs making life-altering decisions for someone LOL) i think the ending is sweet. π₯Ή The last page does a lot of heavy lifting, emotionally, for me, and iβm wondering if itβs the same for you and others?
An account I follow on twitter said something about how as a reader they werenβt really happy with the ending, but they could see why fic writers would be, because everythingβs so open-ended and it kinda startled me, because of how immediately i agreed? LOL. like, i like the ending for the same reason iβve liked the series: it is open-ended, thereβs enough world building that you can build on top of it, as a fic writer, and work with the lore Hori like, hints throughout it. But as a reader I could see how someone could be unsatisfied. We rush through the groupβs remaining years at UA. The Billboard rankings are still a thing, despite Hawkβs grand speech in making an effort to include non-traditional heroes. Hero commercialism is still running rampant and if anything, the pro hero world sounds like itβs gotten more enclosed and harder to be apart of? Whichhhh I guess you could argue it shouldβve always been that wayβthey are extreme first defenders in a lot of respects so sure, you need the best of the bestβbut idk. I keep thinking about the league, lmao, and all that change they carried on about wantingβand what they got was most of them killed in action and also no change LMAOO. No, wait, Shoji ends mutant racism and Ochako compels more Quirk counselling π₯Ή (Iβm not mad at that, I think itβs touching they both end up spearheading movement/efforts for ending discrimination/encourage understanding, itβs justβ¦ those are a big fights, you know? Big undertakings π₯Ί).
Idk idk idk. Iβm trying to think of something that I, as a reader and not a fanfic writer, am unsatisfied with and I guessβ¦ Iβm not unsatisfied with the ending moreso than I am with my biggest and most constant complaint: that Horiβs a coward whoβs cowardice undermines his emotional beats LMAOOO. I think heβs a coward for letting Edgeshot live. I think heβs a coward for not confirming a shipβlike, any of them. Heβs a coward for not daring to imagine significant change in the pro hero system. But even with those criticisms, I still enjoy the series, and love it for what it is. π₯Ί
My original reaction to the final chapter leaks, tbh, was likeβto get the ick LMFAOOOOOO. i was like, what is this. what have u DONE TO MY BOYYY. idk it gave me the ick for both deku and bakugou and i canβt really explain why??? now that we have the official chapter out, i think it was definitely a deadly combo of likeβfandom making up their own minds about things and running it into the ground within the space of hours. π thatβs on me, i shouldβve gone underground, i knew this fandom would skirt close to ruining the entire series for me like the clowns in the clown car they are. but this is why i was so relieved to get your asks, Lili!!! π₯Ί Because it was like, omg, itβs not just me, like, weβre processing what we know about it together. π₯Ί eight years!!!! i feel the sameβlike a proud parent. π₯Ή The montage panels showing us the bits and pieces of everyoneβEri deserves to live her best high school musician life!!! π But all of them, all of them made me emotional in some way. Aizawa and Mic visiting Oboroβs grave. π₯Ί mirko with her insane prosthetics. π love her. Endeavour losing his family, but being surrounded by the heroes from his agency. π₯Ί Izuku seeing Shigaraki, at the end. So much of it was bittersweet, or satisfying to see in action. The kids competing in the sports festival!! Bakugou being cheerled as he rehabs his arm!!! Izuku, smiling, as he holds the last embers of OFA. That part actually devastates me lmfao. I love that MHA likeβshows that anyone can be a hero, that the thing that makes one is the compulsion to help others first, and that now thereβs like, accessibility, butβ¦ idk. I wanted him and OFA to stay together forever. π₯Ή But maybe this is for the bestβ¦ now the past users really are at rest, and Izuku can be a hero on his own strength.
I love that Class A worked together to fund the suit. I know the βBakugou paid moreβ thing was popular, in the wake of the leaks, and I could see him funnelling more into it but one of the things I hated the most with the leaks/that gave me the biggest ick (lmao) was how everyone was turning it into a shipping thing, and not an incredible statement on just how much Class A love each other, and love Deku. π₯Ί All Might mentions in his fight with AFO, with his own hero suit, that it took his lifeβs savingsβso for them to be able to fund Izukuβs with only, what, six years of pro hero salary? Thatβs an incredible group effort. And they did it because they love him!!!! π Because he worked hard and deserved it and they all knew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Because the golden generation doesnβt leave anyone behind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love them, iβm obsessed with their pro hero designs, concerned about the potential rat tails bakugou has tho and i donβt want to talk about the facial hair that sero and mineta have, lmfao. Shinsou, however, can absolutely get it. π
idkkkkkkk liliβwhat do you think, now? Overall iβm still emotional about it, lmao. i think the endgame had weak spots and that hori has strengths and weaknesses (like we all do) as a storytellerβbut that he delivered. π₯Ή i think ultimately he did what he promised us heβd do: told us the story of how they became the greatest heroes.
