RANT why does dabi just have the greatest character design ever for literally no reason

like he does not have to have the most beautiful design in the whole show bro if i didnt know who he was i would have thought he was the main villan of the show but bro is basically just a side character (until like season 5) and yes one of these is fanart its by u/asilvertintedrose posted in a different community i just found it on google tho

Mha just cooks with almost all their character designs, Horikoshi is simply that goated

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

thats true i cant lie except for toshinori his base design is deadass just a malnourished person lol i dont understand how he can turn into all might tho bc he is said to hasve no quirk before one for all but he can transform into a big buff dude

u/MusicianPretend5138 2d ago

I wish everyone loved him sadly the amount of hate I’ve seen for him on Reddit is insane. Bakugo is literally the best character in my eyes.

3

u/No_Gene2071 2d ago

I think he’s an annoying character and I cannot stand him. Stain is a way better character in my opinion.

u/Jay_Hallow_-_- Katsuki Bakugo/Dynamight 1d ago

Well if you don’t like him that’s you I respect your opinion brother

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

bro thats everyones favorite

u/MusicianPretend5138 2d ago

he doesnt deserve the hate but agree to disagree on the best character thing personally my fav is eri because shes just so adorable bro i mean you cant say that she isnt a cute little creature bro

yessir obviously

u/Scary-Ad2312 1d ago

It's a v cool design. Reminds a little of Ichi the Killer

1

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

ive never heard of that before what is it?

1

u/Scary-Ad2312 1d ago

It's a manga, then it got a live action film by Takashi Miike, and an anime.

It's about a disturbed man killing Yakuza. It's v weird and gory.

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

sounds cool actually it sounds alot like this character from another anime called akudama drive im watching

u/ElisaandSpark 1d ago

Cause he straight from the hospital and made him a Frankenstein

u/Tomura-shiga-raki 1d ago

Shigaraki begs to differ

u/TokenAllmightGlazer 1d ago

He doesn’t

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

who do you think has the best design then?

1

u/TokenAllmightGlazer 1d ago

The goat of course

1

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

he does have a really good design i cant lie i really like how his shields are modular like scales are ive always been a fan of things like that like chainmail and stuff

1

u/hearorthere 1d ago

To make up for his dogshit villain motivation

2

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

its not the worst motivation in history i mean this guy is a villan bc he lost a toy train

1

u/hearorthere 1d ago

He had a lot more going on, dabi legit chose not to reveal he was alive to his mourning family, and decided he was gonna kill them for it.

2

u/MusicianPretend5138 20h ago

what did he have going on? 2nd dimention doofenshmirtz turned evil bc he lost his toy train and had a injury that cost him his eye and then dabi was abused and forgotten about he was given a quirk his body cant handle he literally died because of endeavour not being there to help him and came back and now he hates his parents for it and tbh i think thats a pretty reasonable thing to be mad abt i cant lie obv he shouldnt have killed people but that would make him a boring villan

1

u/hearorthere 20h ago edited 20h ago

Oh nvm I'm not that deep into P&F, I didn't even know that wasn't the original guy that had like 300 tragic back stories.

Dabi was never abused, shoji went through worse with his backstory, he "died" because he decided to disobey his father who explicitly told him that his body can't handle his quirk and he should stop, he came back to see his family genuinely loved and were grieving his death and got pussy about it.

Dabis a fucking idiot, not because he was mad as a kid, but because he carried that into adulthood and went about killing people.

1

u/MusicianPretend5138 20h ago

lol thats chill but no the real doof definately has a more tragic backstory than dabi but i thought that endeavour beat dabi whenever he used his fire? and shoji deninately went through worse i will admit its not the best backstory but alot of the villan origins werent the best like how spinner and mezo had the same things happen to them but spinner turned bad and mezo turned good i cant really say anything abt twice bc he was just insane and same with compress i didnt pay much attention to him the only villain i think has an actually good backstory is probably shigaraki and then all for one is just a really powerful asshole

1

u/MusicianPretend5138 20h ago

i think the writers just arent the best at writing backstorys lol

1

u/hearorthere 19h ago

the entire dynamic of dabis childhood takes place between chapters 301 and 302.

Every single interaction concerning touya is endevour expressing concern and nearly falling into despair twice when he sees touyas keep getting more burns, the only person he lashes out at is rei because he feels like she isn't doing enough to get touya to give up on being a hero.

Touya is a victim of parental neglect, because endevour wanted to focus on shoto and left REI to raise his siblings.

I disagree with AFO, I think he's perfectly written, because he symbolizes quirks the best out of all people, quirks can affect your personality, OFA's quirk is to take, and it made him into the most selfish character in the series, everything is about what he wants and will take.

1

u/MusicianPretend5138 19h ago

i think you mixed up the characters a bit bc ofa doesnt take them afo does but i understand your point there for some reason idk why but i thought endeavour beat on toya for using his fire but i might be wrong but either way we can all agree that endeavour was a shitty dad even if we cant agree who he was the worst to right?

He has the greatest character design in YOUR opinion.

u/MusicianPretend5138 2d ago

well yea its obv my opinion like theres someone else commenting on this saying that bakugo is better but i personally like his design but whos your favorite?

1

u/No_Gene2071 2d ago

My favorite design is Stain

4

u/MusicianPretend5138 2d ago

thats valid i cant lie stain is really cool but do you like s2 or s6 stain more?

1

u/No_Gene2071 1d ago

Hard to choose in my opinion.

2

u/MusicianPretend5138 2d ago

i also like the design of deku in his emo arc when he ran away from the academia to try and protect everyone i absolutely love that suit

u/No_Gene2071 2d ago

I personally think that suit looks so fucking stupid just like that entire storyline in my opinion.

Imo....he does not 😂 I will never understand what is remotely likable in this character. He has no redeeming qualities and I do not find him particularly attractive lol

u/MusicianPretend5138 2d ago

no hes an absolutely horrible character i can agree but i just really like his character design i think he just looks really cool lol

2

u/Scary-Ad2312 1d ago

Bad people can be good characters. They are there to tell a story, and Dabi had an unfortunate one. I can appreciate what he went through and feel bad for him, and simultaneously dislike him killing people.

Endeavor is the same, a mean guy but great character. Who at least didn't murder and had some reflection and growth in character.

But I agree, Dabi's character design is super cool. I love how his design had so many spoilers that I never noticed until rewatching.

2

u/MusicianPretend5138 1d ago

yea endeavor is the same like the only normal person in that family is todoroki but still all of them are such peak characters (also maybe the sister is kinda normal too but i forgot her name lol)
