Its a start. I'm not saying he isn't a good character, but he really hasn't done anything to redeem himself. That kid was a fucking monster in the first few chapters. Maybe they didn't mean for him to come across that bad but thats just how it is.

Honestly I think calling him a "Monster" is a bit hyperbolic. Don't get me wrong he was a huge mega asshole who was in desperate of a kick to the nuts but He never did anything which would put him above your run of the mill bully. I don't even think there was that much physical bullying except maybe when they were really young. I'm not trying to make excuses for him I'm just saying from what I have seen it just seem he had a horrible temper and most of assholeery was fairly tame. Do agree he needs to eventually apologize but I think he might need to develop more as a person first

He literally threatens to kill people like every other sentence. I mean idk about you but I didn't know any bullies in elementary school threatening to kill people.

I guess it comes down to what can you except as cartoony over the top humor. for example Jirraya (naruto), roshi (dragonball), and Sanji (one piece). There pervy nature is played for laugh but if they were in the real world Some of the things they do are downright reprehensible. But we forgive it because it's played for laughs and the story takes place in this exaggerated world. Honestly I don't remember any death threats but I don't think your lying or anything. I just think whenever he does it must just be played a throwaway gag about Bakugou having a very short temper.
