One Piece Academy Quick Translation Index

Zoro going to Chopper about this strange reaction Zoro has been having. His hands get sweaty, his heart races, he feels flushed, his tongue feels too big for his mouth...

Chopper confirms that its probably an allergic reaction and Zoro should avoid whatevers causing it!

So Zoro starts trying to avoid the Cook.

so i saw some posts about how izuku too easily overcome his quirklessness after receiving ofa, right? mostly people in and under those posts say that it's a shame that we don't see the difficulties of re-thinking his identity and this situation is kinda unrealistic. well i can understand the upsetting feeling of not receiving an interesting point of character's self-discovering and stuff but i have a thing to say about how this thing will make sense (possibly).

so let's make an assumption that quirklessness in the world of bnha is some kind of disability. as far as i know we don't have clear statement in canon but it make sense, right? like if you search the word "disability" you will find something along the lines "the experience of any condition that makes it more difficult for a person to do certain activities or have equitable access within a given society". sooo in REAL world quirklessness isn't a disability because... well non of us here superpower, right? BUT on bnha world quirks are seen as an extension of human being like leg or hand. so it will be logical to assume that person without quirk can't be seen as fully capable as quirked one within society.

let's not bring the paranormal liberation front stuff because it's a topic for different post and I'm already getting far from point of this one.

so izuku is disabled in the beginning of the story, yeah? then why the hell he overcome his disability with a simple snap of fingers and why did it make sense?

now i will be coming from my perspective. I'm disabled and was like this for good chank of my life. and what usually come with it? disability becomes a part of person's identity. not only for people around disabled person but for them too.

now my rambling make even less sense but wait I'm getting to the point.

from interaction between izuku and bakugo + tone of voice of izuku's teacher in aldera we know that deku suffered from bulling BECAUSE of quirklessness. moreover when izuku asked all might can he become a hero, all might didn't ask him about his skills or why he feel a need to be a hero, no. all might just write him off solidly because of izuku's quirklessness and let me be honest: i believe that that wasn't the first time deku was given such "reality check".

can you smell that? oh yeah the good old ✨trauma✨

why did i wrote that i'll view this situation from perspective of my personal experience? well, i was bullied because of my disability back in school and guess what? most of the adults in my life didn't give me a chance to prove myself before they decide that I'm useless.

and that's the main reason why my disability become the thing that I'm activity trying to hide and don't let this abomination become a part of what make me who am i now.

can you see where I'm getting? izuku viewed his quirklessness as a thing that made his life harder and what made other people see him less of a human. so when The Miracle happened izuku just signed with relief and went ahead leaving behind the thing that made him miserable.

the last part of this ungodly long post: why do i believe that izuku doesn't let quirklessness become part of his identity and rather ignored it? well this is the part where i stop pretending that i have some Absolutely Logical Conclusions and become delusional. so we all remember that for the good part of plot izuku keep telling that he's gonna be hero like all might. well make sense because of ofa and all this razzle and dazzle with all might's successor, right? BUT this also can be applied to quirkless izuku. he WANTED and WAS GOING to become hero like all might, and i see it as if he didn't come in terms with his inability to become Just Like All Might. according to this statement izuku was ignoring differences between him and other (quirked) people. this make me believe that deep down he refuse to accept disability as part (or ex-part according to canon events) of himself.

is it healthy? no.

does izuku have a healthy image of himself? probably not.

did i just come up with unshaped pile of thoughts at night before bed and decide to vomit it straight into the internet? yes, i did.

projecting my height diff obsession onto sanji? absolutely

i love when curiosity drives me to see what's going on in the more obscure hypothetically Problematique ship tags of a fandom (incest pairings and the like), and almost invariably i find very little fic but the fic that does exist is always like, over a dozen works written singlehandedly by one Extremely Dedicated Pervert. we need to cherish these people. support your fandom's local pervert today they're a load-bearing part of the ecosystem

kageyama this hinata that

okay i get it

but what about ukai what about my boy

i love him more than anything and i will die on this hill

Shanks, still conversing with Mihawk on a snail call: So, Hawkeyes, this baby of yours? Tell me about it! Is it cute!?

Mihawk: My child's name is Dracule Talon. He looks just like me. He will be quite handsome when he grows up, but to answer your question, right now he is very cute.

Talon: *gags*

Shanks: Does he have your eyes?

Mihawk: Yes, quite so.

Shanks: Sweet!

Mihawk: He also has my hair.

Shanks: Aww!

Mihawk: And his feathers are quite soft.

Shanks: ....his uh, what?

Mihawk: His dagger-like fingers are impressive as well.

Shanks: Umm, okay...

Mihawk: He loves to eat tuna meat, fresh caught from the sea. I blend it with grapes and nuts, so we both enjoy it.

Shanks: *slight gagging noise*

Mihawk: He's also already very good with a blade. When I first carried him, I never thought I could be a father. Yet, here we are... *notices Buggy accidentally splashed him with a drink while setting a glass down* Oh Buggy, you did this to me.

Shanks: *choking on the other end* B-Buggy!?!? Your son came from Buggy???

Mihawk: Technically, Buggy alerted me to Talon's existence. However, the child did come from an Egg-oh, Talon, save some of that for Crocodile later, would you?

Shanks: E-Eg-EGG!? .....*line goes quiet*

Mihawk: My apologies, Shanks, where was I? ....Shanks?

Buggy: *yelling at the receiver* Benn, are you there? Did he faint?

Benn: Yep. Out cold. *looooong sigh* Talk to you later, I guess. *hangs up the call*

Continuation of this post. XD

Some AU where Shanks raises Luffy and Mihawk gets involved if only to see that Luffy makes it into adulthood in relatively good health, because he's apathetic but doesn't approve of infanticide, and then years later when Luffy goes off by himself it circles back around to the duel at the Baratie, (Mihawk got sent over to round Luffy up for a family dinner) except instead of agreeing to Zoro's challenge, Mihawk pulls out the bluetooth and asks Shanks exactly when Luffy was allowed to start dating? And that no, it's Shanks that Luffy takes after. Yeah. Some brooding boy who's a swordsman. Yeah. He's got green hair and three swords. And I'd approve if this wasn't making me feel weird. Oh, fuck yourself, Red.

wait a minute... did bones... did bones finally started to draw aN ASS FOR MIC!? god bless, i was waiting here for years

idk if that's just me but i ADORE all might in canon. like he's generally a good dude who dedicated his whole life to other people. he's trying his best to bond with his students and become good teacher. he didn't stop helping people even after been injured. he made sure that people were as secure and protected as it was possible.

listen i can see why so many kids in mha are inspired by him

AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH MELISSA SHIELD--

(i love them so much)

but on the other hand (in fanon) I HATE THIS FUCKER SO MUCH YOU HAVE NO IDEA

author on ao3: all might pass his power to middle schooler not having previous experience with tutoring and did not run this decision with his guardiand and did not inform his teachers in ua

me: FUCK HIM

author on ao3: all might crashed izuku's dreams and left him alone on the rooftop

me: THIS BASTARD

author on ao3: all might didn't stop bakugou during training even when he almost killed izuku

me: SHITFACE

autor on ao3: all might watched how izuku crashed his limbs while using OFA and didn't ask other teachers for help

me: gimme knife I'm going to dismember some old men

i know that these are all canon events and all might doesn't have to be always right i understand that. BUT when it happens in fics (even without all might bashing) this shit hits different you know

I find it interesting that over time, Luffy began to clearly divide the people around him into his own and others'.

The East Blue saga is different from all the others, so we don't take it into account, but the rest of the major arcs are fundamentally similar to each other and the main similarity is that there is always some character of the location who will interact with the crew.

so, the first such character is Vivi, and, in fact, everything goes as usual: acquaintance, a request for help, the way to the villain of the arc, a fight, and everyone is happy, BUT Vivi is literally the only character of the location who was accepted by the Mugiwaras into the team as an equal member (even in the pauses in the middle of the episodes, she stood among them) and who later did not become a member of the team, but retained this connection.

neither Luffy nor the rest of the team showed such willingness to accept a location character into the team, no matter how close they got (neither Connis, nor Rebecca, nor Yamato, although the situations were quite similar)

my take: Mugiwaras and Luffy in particular began to grow up long before water 7 and timeskip, this process began after the first big adventure on the grand line
