My Hero Academia 51 recap- all the married gays are in a dorm together now

In comparison to the last one, this one was really soft and cutesy, fine call, we needed a breather ep after all the intensity

-All Might saying Inko reminds him of Nana, his master, then flexing his little stick arm and saying its cuz they’re both strong (and have similar hairstyles, v, important).- MAXIMUM AWWWWW.

-why does mineta have to endure and ruin every scene he’s in he’s been gone for a while so i forgot how bad it was but now he’s back and i’ll never realize peace until someone murders him

-Bakugou not only was watching Kirishima closely enough to see he’s upset, but he explodes Denki to find out Kirishima blew all his cash on nighttime vision goggles for the rescue-Bakugou mission...then gives him a huge wad of cash and aggressively tells him to cheer up. Bakugou is both paying attention to feelings and being pleasant when it comes to Kirishima, they must be in love, only explanation, i call it like I view it.

-WACKY ROOM TOURS. And I’m so glad to notice the guys completely uninterested in seeing the girls rooms include exactly who I thought it would be:

Gay son #1

and

Gay Son #2

All the canonically LGBTQ+ characters in ‘My Hero Academia’

In the last several years, My Hero Academia grew to become one of the most trendy battle shonen in the world. As most manga and anime aficionados recognize, this genre is not typically the one you depart to for wonderful LGBTQ+ representation. When searching for homosexual content, folks naturally gravitate toward the Boys’ Love and Girls’ Love subgenres, of which the main focus you can probably speculate just by reading those words.

All that said, LGBTQ+ advocacy has been growing in other types of content, and while My Hero Academia is by no means the pinnacle of that, it’s always kind to see gender non-conforming characters in such a popular series. People deserve to see themselves on the screen, no matter what genre of content they’re consuming, and luckily for My Hero Academia enthusiasts, the series has provided us with a few LGBTQ+ characters. Look, I won’t sit here and pretend that Kohei Horikoshi deserves a pat on the back for including three queer characters in his series, two of them being minor, but it’s something.

Granted, there are a not many more characters in My Hero Acade

My Hero Academia's LGBTQ+ History and Future, Explained

Mineta is one of the most hated characters in My Hero Academia, not just by several of the characters on the exhibit (especially the female ones) but also fans. He is lecherous, perverted, and a bit of a coward. A subset demographic of fans now detest him more because Mineta would be a crass representation of a bisexual person. Mineta potentially being fluid plays into the trope that bisexual people (particularly bisexual males) are promiscuous predators who are not to be trusted.

There is little solid evidence of Mineta being bisexual. Most of the speculation comes from the My Hero Academia manga Chapter #321, where Mineta says to Deku, "I fell for you." This is hardly a case for his sexuality. Still, more hinges on the evidence that English translations are not always solid, whereas looking into a more accurate translation from Japanese has Mineta stating that he "admired" him. For those living in the West, the reaction to Mineta being perceived as bisexual may feel the similar as what happened to the latest iteration of Superman coming out as bisexual. Jon Kent, son of Clark Kent, came out in Superman: Son of Kal-El #4.

Anonymous asked:

do you think horikoshi's level of "not giving a fuck" its high enough for making a canon gay couple? (ships aside)

Yes, It’s Possible For Boku no Hero Academia To Have a Canon Gay Couple

Horikoshi is at least aware of LGBT rights based on this moment with Magne.

and based on him creating a canon gender non-conforming character.

Horikoshi is a progressive journalist and handles a lot of mature topics better than most shounen authors. He reminds me a little of Togashi, the shounen author of HunterxHunter. Togashi and his wife both help LGBT rights, and Togashi has made a prominent character gender non-conforming, and there are a lot of characters in HunterxHunter whose sexuality or gender are shrouded in mystery. The reason why I think these two authors are so similar is because both handle sensitive material rather maturely and both have confirmed LGBT characters.

Plus, if Attack on Titan can have a canon gay couple, then Boku no Hero Academia should be competent to get away with having a canon gay couple with time. LGBT rights keeps enhancing in Japan every year, and Boku no Hero Academia still has years to go before concluding. LGBT rights most likely will hav
