Analysis of Chitose Kizuki (Curious): Past, MLA Recruitment, and Heteromorphic Status

Curious's Past and Early Career

Journalistic Background

Chitose Kizuki began her career in journalism during her early days in the industry, where she developed her core philosophy of never backing down from a good story. This foundational period shaped her aggressive investigative approach and her belief that face-to-face interviews were superior to rumor-based reporting.

Pre-MLA Professional Life

As Executive Director of Shoowaysha Publishing (a parody of Shueisha, the real-world publisher of Weekly Shonen Jump), Curious held significant influence over public media distribution. This position provided her with:

Extensive resources for information gathering

Access to intelligence networks without government suspicion

The ability to shape public opinion through published content

A legitimate cover for her later terrorist activities

Joining the Meta Liberation Army

The Recruitment Process

The document reveals that Curious met Rikiya Yotsubashi (Re-Destro) at some point and subsequently joined the Meta Liberation Army. The specific circumstances of their initial meeting aren't detailed, but their relationship appears to have developed through shared ideological alignment.

Rikiya's Influence on Her Methodology

A crucial moment in Curious's development occurred during a meeting with Rikiya, where he critiqued her journalistic approach:

He read one of her articles and told her that writing based on rumors wouldn't interest readers

He advised her to conduct direct interviews with subjects

He emphasized that "an article to guide public opinion must contain human heart"

This guidance fundamentally transformed her approach, leading to her obsessive interview style that she later employed even during deadly combat situations.

Integration into MLA Leadership

Curious became one of the top commanders of the Meta Liberation Army, which consisted of over 100,000 members. Her role combined her journalistic expertise with military leadership, making her valuable for both propaganda operations and tactical command.

Heteromorphic Characteristics Analysis

Physical Appearance

Curious possessed several distinctive physical traits that set her apart from typical human appearance:

Pale blue skin - A clear heteromorphic trait

Black sclera with green irises - Unusual eye coloration

Lilac hair - While unusual, this could be natural or cosmetic

Comparison to Other MLA Leaders

The document explicitly states that "Chitose was the only woman amongst the Meta Liberation Army executives," but more significantly for this analysis, her physical characteristics suggest she was the only heteromorph among the leadership.

Theoretical Reasons for Her Unique Status

1. Representation and Legitimacy

Having a heteromorph in leadership positions could serve several strategic purposes:

Inclusive optics: Demonstrates that the MLA welcomes all types of Quirk users, not just those with "normal" appearances

Broadening appeal: Attracts heteromorphic individuals who might feel marginalized by mainstream society

Living propaganda: Her presence reinforces the MLA's message about Quirk liberation and acceptance

2. Personal Experience with Discrimination

Heteromorphs in the My Hero Academia universe often face discrimination due to their appearance. Curious's blue skin and unusual eyes would have made her stand out in society, potentially creating:

Personal understanding of societal rejection based on Quirk-related appearance

Motivation to join a movement promoting Quirk liberation

Authentic connection to the MLA's anti-discrimination message

3. Professional Advantages

Her heteromorphic appearance might have actually benefited her journalistic career:

Memorable presence: Her distinctive look would make her recognizable and potentially more effective at networking

Disarming effect: Her unusual appearance might make interview subjects underestimate her or feel more comfortable opening up

Authority through difference: Her success despite her appearance could have enhanced her credibility within heteromorphic communities

4. Strategic Value to the MLA

The MLA would have recognized several strategic benefits in recruiting a heteromorphic leader:

Diverse skill set: Her journalism background provided unique capabilities for propaganda and intelligence gathering

Community connections: Access to heteromorphic networks and communities

Symbolic importance: Her presence demonstrates the MLA's commitment to true equality among Quirk users

The Significance of Her Death

Impact on MLA Representation

Curious being "the only executive of the MLA to have been killed in battle" carries additional weight when considering her status as potentially the only heteromorphic leader. Her death represents:

Loss of heteromorphic representation in leadership

Elimination of a unique perspective within the organization

Reduction in the MLA's ability to appeal to diverse Quirk communities

Symbolic Implications

Her death during the battle with Himiko Toga symbolically represents the vulnerability of those who are "different" in society, even when they achieve positions of power and influence.

Conclusion

Chitose Kizuki's journey from journalist to MLA executive represents a complex intersection of personal ambition, ideological alignment, and potentially, lived experience as a heteromorph in a discriminatory society. Her unique position as the only heteromorphic leader (based on her physical characteristics) suggests that the MLA strategically valued diversity in their leadership, both for practical and symbolic reasons. Her recruitment by Rikiya appears to have been based on mutual respect and shared vision, with her journalistic skills proving invaluable to the organization's propaganda efforts.

Humarise with All MacGuffins: Analysis

Overview

In this speculative scenario, Flect Turn and his global cult, Humarise, successfully acquire all necessary “MacGuffins”: an unlimited supply of Trigger Bombs, sufficient chemicals (Ideotrigger) to produce them indefinitely, and complete control over their worldwide network of 25 branches without interference from the World Heroes Association, Pro Heroes, or internal betrayals (e.g., Alan Kay or Eddie Soul). Humarise’s mission, driven by the Quirk Singularity Doomsday Theory, is to eradicate Quirks globally, sparing only the Quirkless and loyal Quirk-using followers. This analysis explores how these resources enhance Humarise’s power, alter their strategies, impact the My Hero Academia narrative, and affect their internal dynamics, focusing on Flect Turn and key members like Beros, Sidero, Serpenters, Leviathan, and Claire Voyance.

Enhanced Capabilities

Flect Turn

Quirk: Reflect

Base Ability: Reflects any attack or effect back at its source, storing energy for later use (e.g., redirecting laser turrets via mirrors on his Arachne Exoskeleton). His Quirk has a limit, overwhelmed by sustained high-power attacks (e.g., Izuku’s 100% One For All barrage).

With MacGuffins: Unlimited Trigger Bombs allow Flect to deploy them strategically across cities, wiping out Quirk users en masse while preserving Humarise’s Quirk-wielding elite. Unhindered chemical supplies ensure continuous bomb production, making his plan sustainable. His Reflect Quirk, enhanced by upgraded exoskeleton tech funded by cult resources, can store and redirect larger energy outputs, such as hero team assaults or heavy weaponry.

New Potential: Flect can create “Quirk-free zones” by detonating Trigger Bombs in targeted areas, neutralizing heroes before engaging them with reflected attacks. His exoskeleton’s mirrors could integrate Ideotrigger gas dispensers, combining his Quirk with bomb effects to disorient and kill opponents instantly.

Strategic Impact: Flect becomes a near-invincible commander, using his Quirk to fend off heroes while Trigger Bombs eliminate their powers globally. His control over Otheon’s police and global branches ensures coordinated strikes, making him a world-ending threat.

Key Humarise Members

Beros (Archer Quirk):

Enhanced Role: Beros’ ability to transform her body into a bow and fire high-speed arrows is amplified with Ideotrigger-enhanced arrows that release Quirk-destroying gas on impact. She becomes a sniper capable of neutralizing heroes from a distance.

Narrative Impact: Beros’ precision strikes cripple hero reconnaissance teams, preventing early detection of Trigger Bomb locations.

Sidero (Iron Ball Quirk):

Enhanced Role: Sidero’s ability to generate and fire iron balls is upgraded with Trigger Bomb-infused projectiles, allowing him to disable Quirks in wide areas. His betrayal-prone nature is curbed by Flect’s absolute control, ensuring loyalty.

Narrative Impact: Sidero’s bombardment overwhelms hero defenses, forcing retreats and exposing civilians to bomb effects.

Serpenters (Twin Snake Quirk):

Enhanced Role: Serpenters’ twin-headed snake arms, now equipped with Ideotrigger venom, can paralyze and kill Quirk users in close combat. His durability, which challenged Bakugo, is bolstered by cult-funded armor.

Narrative Impact: Serpenters becomes a frontline juggernaut, decimating hero squads in urban combat zones.

Leviathan (Water Manipulation Quirk):

Enhanced Role: Leviathan’s water-based attacks, capable of flooding entire areas, are infused with Ideotrigger gas, creating deadly mists that kill Quirk users. His massive size and strength make him a mobile bomb delivery system.

Narrative Impact: Leviathan’s floods disrupt hero operations, isolating teams and amplifying bomb effects in coastal cities.

Claire Voyance (Clairvoyance Quirk):

Enhanced Role: Claire’s ability to see through objects and track targets globally is enhanced with cult tech, allowing real-time monitoring of hero movements. She coordinates Trigger Bomb detonations with pinpoint accuracy.

Narrative Impact: Claire’s surveillance neutralizes hero ambushes, making Humarise’s operations nearly undetectable.

Strategic Shifts

Global Genocide Campaign: With unlimited Trigger Bombs and Ideotrigger, Humarise can execute simultaneous attacks across all 25 branches, targeting major cities to maximize Quirk user casualties. Flect’s plan to lure heroes into bomb zones succeeds, eliminating top Pro Heroes like Endeavor and Ryukyu.

Quirkless Supremacy: Humarise establishes Quirkless enclaves, recruiting survivors to bolster their ranks. Flect uses propaganda, amplified by his charisma, to convert Quirkless civilians into fanatical followers, creating a new societal order.

Corrupted Institutions: Flect’s control over Otheon’s police and connections with Trigger smugglers expand to other nations’ law enforcement, allowing Humarise to infiltrate governments and sabotage hero agencies.

Psychological Terror: Claire’s clairvoyance and Flect’s public broadcasts (e.g., announcing bomb detonations) instill global panic, eroding trust in heroes. The threat of Quirk loss forces some heroes to defect, joining Humarise to preserve their powers.

Defensive Strongholds: Humarise’s hidden headquarters, fortified by Leviathan’s water barriers and Sidero’s iron defenses, become impregnable. Flect’s Reflect Quirk ensures he can personally repel any hero assault.

Narrative Impact

Hero Society Annihilation: The mass detonation of Trigger Bombs kills 80% of the world’s Quirk users, including most Pro Heroes and U.A. students, dismantling hero society. Survivors like Izuku, Bakugo, and Todoroki face a world where their Quirks are liabilities, forcing reliance on quirkless tactics.

Izuku’s Struggle: Izuku, targeted as “diseased” by Flect, must overcome Reflect’s defenses without One For All’s full power, as sustained 100% attacks risk his life. His leadership inspires a resistance, but the loss of allies like Ochaco tests his resolve.

Global Chaos: The collapse of hero-dominated governments leads to anarchy, with Humarise positioning itself as the new world order. Quirkless civilians, spared by bombs, are coerced into supporting Flect, creating a divided humanity.

Moral Conflict: Rody Soul’s arc intensifies, as his family’s ties to Humarise (via his father Eddie) force him to confront Flect’s ideology. His betrayal in the original film suggests he could become a key resistance figure, rallying Quirkless allies against the cult.

Villain Rivalries: The League of Villains, sidelined by Humarise’s global reach, either allies with Flect to survive or wages war to reclaim dominance. Shigaraki’s Decay Quirk becomes a counter to Trigger Bombs, setting up a villain showdown.

Internal Dynamics

Flect’s Tyrannical Leadership: Flect’s charisma and Reflect Quirk ensure absolute loyalty, but his dismissal of subordinates like Beros as “expendable” breeds resentment. His hypocrisy—using his Quirk while condemning others—could spark dissent if exposed.

Member Roles: Beros and Claire handle reconnaissance and targeted strikes, Sidero and Serpenters lead offensive operations, and Leviathan fortifies defenses. Their Quirks, spared by Flect’s selective genocide, make them elite enforcers, but their loyalty hinges on survival privileges.

Potential Fractures: Sidero’s willingness to betray Humarise suggests he could defect if offered a better deal by heroes or rival villains. Beros’ suicide in the original timeline indicates fragile morale, which could resurface under Flect’s ruthless demands. Claire’s clairvoyance might uncover Flect’s personal motives, leading to internal rebellion.

Cult Fanaticism: Humarise’s rank-and-file, driven by the Quirk Doomsday Theory, remain devoted, but the inclusion of Quirk users creates tension. Non-elite members may question why they’re targeted for eradication, risking schisms.

Conclusion
