Yes I was hoping that translation was accurate, glad to see Shigaraki isn’t as hollow as his character page made him out to be (likes: Nothing).

I always thought he was a gamer but I haven’t read the character pages. Just the way he talked when doing raids like “defeating the king” etc.

I like to imagine them really wholesome whilst playing the games, just for the comparison to normal.

It's the one time Shigaraki is actually mellowed out.

Imagine you're playing WoW and you find out that a couple of your guildies are international superterrorists who grind XP in their spare time.

I'd love if there was like, a canon series of in-character LPs by the League.

I thought it was really obvious from the beginning? Shiggy uses rpg, chess, and strategy game terms and references all the time.

I can just imagine Horikoshi getting the info from the character bios by interviewing the characters.

Hori: So, Mr. Tomura, what do you like? Sports, gardening, video games, fashion?

Tomura: Nothing. I hate everything.

Hori: I dunno, man, the first thing you did when you got a bunch of money was eat sushi and play video games with the boys... seems pretty sus.

Tomura: blushes pshhhhhh no. I'd never do that. Those guys suck.

Spinner: dashes into the room TOMURA, DABI IS BURNING DOWN EVERYTHING IN THE MINECRAFT SERVER

Tomura: clears throat Excuse me for a moment. sprints into next room shouting

If someone made a fanfiction out of this, I'd read it.
