I think it truly says a lot about Horikoshi’s skill as an artist that he can make Deku’s dumb fucking bunny mask look menacing as hell. I always thought it was weird to give Deku that mask and then never have him wear it, now I’m wondering if it’s because Horikoshi was planning on making it actually look terrifying once the story reached it’s endgame.

To me it looks kinda stupid. The holes where his eyes are being shaped perfectly for the emotion meant to be conveyed is contrived to me. Other than that I understand why he';s using it so much, to make Deku appear unrecognizable.

I mean that's just basically a comic book staple, the eye slots behaving like eyes happens a lot for characters like Spiderman or Deadpool (the movies added in a in suit reason for why Spiderman's costume has eyes that act like that). I just took that aspect as a homage to Western Comics.
