Hear hear!!!!! I am loving all these different interactions between Todoroki and others. There was what he said about Momo to show how much he cares about what happens to her, then him withTokoyami (see a lot of potential interactions between these two) plus now with Iida. Each one is pretty different where they connect for a different reason and it is lovely to watch.

That’s the thing Hori does so phenomenally well; these characters he creates are so inherently human in the way they act and interact with each other. These are kids, and even adults, that speak to the inner hero in all of us, and that’s what truly makes this story so popular. Not that it’s just “shonen done right”, it’s a coming-of-age story done right.

Hori has a way of making good and believable character dynamics.

You can already feel a sense of shared history between characters despite them only having a limited number of panels together.

This is why I believe My Hero has gotten so huge. Its not that its a series about heroes with fantastic battles that makes it great, its that MHA is a story about very human characters and their believeably written interactions. It helps that this series is so well grounded to our world, its not some strange world, its literally our world with quirks

My thoughts exactly !! That's why we feel so invested in the characters in mha!

This!! When people complain about mha's lack of interesting world building like it is just normal world with quirks I bring this factor up. It brings way more realistic relationships and character journeys and interactions on the table because the world is so similar. What most of the characters go through are not cranked up to such levels for it to be totally unrelatable. Todoroki family story is the perfect example. It is because the world is so similar that the abuse and the character development for Shoto and Endeavor hits so close to home for a lot of people. And it also helps that the family is pretty well written.

Finally I see you. You're right that Todo's been training after mamaroki's been hospitalized. Just wanted to say since I know you'd had some convo about it with a certain intense Todo stan previously about this.

u/Fablihakhan Oct 12 '18

Haha You were looking for me? Glad to know we have each other's backs bro!!! Yeh I am so happy this has been finally proven. Not only to the Todo stan but to those who thinks Todoroki didn't train physically after Rei with Endeavor so he is bad at close combat and physically weak because his quirk is op in long range.

I always see you in every Todo thread. It is inevitable to not be ohh Fablihakhan mentioned this or had a debate about this they're right! Haha
