The last chapter on its way to kill me...
Can we please look at his expression while he's asking about Deku and the others?
When, and I repeat, WHEN have we seen Bakugou make that face in regard to someone?
He's concerned, but not in a twisted way. He's caring. He doesn't even think about himself and his injuries. Hell, one second ago he was attached to an oxygen tube and now he's on his own feet worrying about other people. Please, let me repeat it: WORRYING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE.
Don't get me wrong, I know we've already had proof that he cares about others in his own way, it's just that I'm not used too see him with this kind of expression. It's almost as looking at Deku.
I've been impressed with his growth as a character, especially in the last arc, but what Horikoshi sensei is doing here is fantastic. It doesn't feel forced, Kacchan is growing gradually accepting more of the outside world while remeaning who he is and I'm all for it.
This panel is so important.
#this chapter is so important#look how serious he is while he's saying what he was rejecting since not so long ago#this is some introspection here#i'm so proud of my boy#and it seems that he was annoyed by the fact that deku didn't realize how special he has always been#pure gold#my boy keeps growing#i love his character development#bakugou katsuki#kacchan#deku#midoriya izuku#bakudeku#katsudeku#my hero academia#mha#boku no hero academia#bnha#manga spoilers#bnha 284#i repeat myself: this chapter is so important#bakugou still hasn't mastered the courage to say sorry directly#but he's trying to make deku forgive him through his actions#i hope we will arrive to the direct apologize sooner or later
BAKUGO YOU GUARD DEKU BAKUGO YOU GUARD DEKU BAKUGO YOU GUARD DEKU BAKUGO YOU GUARD DEKU BAKUGO YOU GUARD DEKU
From this...
...to this.
He immediately knows what is the right thing to do, but imagine how emotionally wrecked he must feel.
You can't possibly know? Please, allow me to show you.
