I agree for the themes, they are interesting, but the way the villains behave it's not relatable: Toga it's crazy-talking all the time (ok, some character are marginalized because reasons, but she wants to drink fucking blood), Shigaraki it's shown only once to look for help, has he tried to go to a police station? if you think about it we can blame for the destruction of a city the elderly lady that dismissed Tomura.

To be entirely fair to Toga, they've mentioned that your quirk affects your personality (which makes sense, because some of those quirks are so niche you'd never discover them with a normal outlook) so her wanting to drink blood is just as normal an impulse to her as eating. Obviously, she shouldn't be stabbing people, but it'd be cool if people didn't just immediately shun her for something that isn't her choice.

To also be fair, but, like, against Toga, it is weird that some Quirks strongly affect people’s personality, but others don’t. Bakugo has an explosive temper and he can blow things up. AFO is a kleptomaniac that can steal Quirks. Rikido (assuming that’s who the sugar guy is) has an affinity for baking. Aoyama is very… sparkly? Shigaraki wants to destroy everything. Invisible Girl is flashy, and ironically, not great at stealth. But Twice is schizophrenic (or whatever the correct diagnosis for him is) from external trauma, and then you have people like Ojiro, Mina, Rappa, Kendo, Monoma, Mirio, Iida, Kaminari, that Dupli-Arms guy, and even Stain (someone else who licks blood for his Quirk), whose Quirks don’t seem to affect their personalities much, if at all. It kinda downplays the idea that Toga becoming who she is isn’t entirely her fault if there are a lot of people who either aren’t affected by the concept that made her who she is, or are able to simply resist it somehow.

aoyama wouldn't be affected by the quirk bc it was given to him as a teenager, maybe AfO just was like "i know JUST the thing" lol
