I know I don’t post much anymore, but I need to talk about this.
Why the hell does everyone immediately JUMP on Katsuki’s death like we haven’t known about it for the last two years?? It was in the manga and nobody would shut up about it when it happened. I’m seeing edits and reactions left and right and it’s just annoying. Like, we are fully aware he’s gone for the next several episodes—hell, maybe until the next season—but he isn’t permanently dead and we know it. It just kills me watching people make content solely to get his death out there or to possibly get views for it when it’s Horikoshi’s work. I knew that it was going to happen, I was fully aware and I accepted it because I knew what would happen, but looking at all these videos on YouTube—not actually watching—and seeing people caption them “Bakugo fighting Shigaraki to the death” and knowing it’s literal just kills me. The worst part is knowing it was going to happen and finally being prepared enough to watch the new season only to realize nothing could have prepared me for the way it was colored… In the manga, it was just as bad, but seeing that because somebody else posted it…. seeing how pale he was… it hurts like hell for an empath and a heavy simp for this man. I know I shouldn’t be so attached, but even if I didn’t simp for him, I’d still be struggling to handle that after everything that happened in season six. So why does everyone have to jump on it like it’s this big thing rather than just leave it the way it is and spare the people who haven’t caught up yet or whatever? It just hurts… Why.
