However, personal attacks, naming other users, linking stuff as an example/reference for salt, brigading, and blanket negative statements (e.g. all shippers of X do/are Y) are still NOT allowed.
  • 5. Follow Reddiquette - Do NOT downvote posts/comments because you disagree with someone or dislike a ship/character. Respond civilly or ignore the post/comment and move on. Downvotes should only be used when content does not follow the posting guidelines. Use the flairs to see/hide content you are interested in.

    Ship Or Dip?

    Credits to horikoshi (from the anime) (if I’m wrong my bad!!)

    Ship: you like the ship and ship it! Dip: you don’t really like the ship and you don’t ship it!

    Either way I respect everyone’s opinion! Have fun! :)

    Let’s Play Ship Bingo! What Do You Think of OjiToru?

    Hi everyone! I tallied the results from the EraserMight and CloudMic posts. The results were Red/Dislike for EraserMight and Yellow/Neutral for CloudMic.

    I’m continuing the two posts at the same time thing for now on since the template I’m following is big and it would take a long time if I continued posting one at a time.

    If anyone is curious on what template I’m following, here’s the link: https://jp.pinterest.com/pin/896568238336609493/

    Anyways, in case anyone doesn’t know, the game is basically you comment the outcome for each ship.

    For example, if you love a ship you would either comment that or the color associated with loving a ship.

    Here are the colors:

    Purple 🟣 = Love

    Blue 🔵 = Like

    Yellow 🟡 = Neutral

    Red đź”´ = Dislike

    Note: I will ONLY count comments that mention the color. Likes will not be included. Only ONE answer will be accepted.

    Analysis: Did the izuocha become canon at the end?

    With all that Horikoshi put at the end, there have been many confusions and dramatizations (as usual), but after reflecting on it, I think I came to a convincing conclusion

    First the context, in this chapter, Tsuyu talks to Ocha and Baku to Deku and both recognize that deep down they feel something in particular, at the end at a dinner of class 1A, Deku runs to Uraraka (who was walking alone regretting not having talked to Deku) after the dinner was over, in which he tells Uraraka that, although he thinks that everyone is special, he wanted to talk to her a little more today and wants to do it from now on, Ocha remembers a dream she had in which Toga pushes her to tell her what she feels (since they both knew what she felt); so Ocha tells him that she was thinking the same thing, and it ends with both of them blushing and holding hands, and implicitly both of them in the future, talking more to each other

    With this as the only thing we can see, did Izuocha become canon in the end? Short answer: Not exactly

    But MAYBE it's the most appropriate and the best thing that could have happened, here I explain why

    One thing we have to accept, especially those of us who like Izuocha, is that in the end, it would be very hasty for it to become canon, since they never had personal moments or an intimate connection beyond interactions, even though they grew up with each other's help, but it would still be very strange; Even in the timeskip, giving it can't be justified either since it doesn't show us that they don't coincide much in schedules, but this new ending keeps us with something implicitly that perhaps gives a solution

    And it is that, for the izuocha to be canon they should have shared more special moments, have dates and talk from a personal point of view, something that we have never seen, until now

    And it is that we have to know something, Hori couldn't have put these scenes just for nothing, there would clearly be a goal beyond just leaving them the same as they were before, and it is that with this ending we are left implicitly that both decided to get to know each other better, perhaps having dates, but definitely having moments together alone, something that, if done correctly, would justify that both became a couple, since these encounters are what could justify it, since it makes the relationship grow to the special, then to the personal, and finally to the intimate

    Something that was not seen in the original story because it had already ended, so it was impossible to justify coherently, but with this ending, implicitly, It is possible that in the future they really became something, since again, this scene would not be put in just for them to end up the same

    That is why this ending for both of them, despite its open ambiguity, is perhaps the best, by introducing an ending that leaves in the subtext we are told that in the end both of them have the intention of getting to know each other better, something that gives an open door for them to be something, and honestly it is strange to think that Hori put this ending just for them to end up only as "best friends who now know each other better", it would be something strange, especially with the conversation with Tsuyu and Baku, in which it is seen that there is introspection on the part of both of them on this subject, but knowing that these encounters are a good justification for a relationship, it is impossible to think about it

    So, seeing it this way, the izuocha TECHNICALLY became canon, but that is already entering into the assumption, but I read you

    In the end I think that this is what one can take, and given the circumstances I think that it is what Better for both, it's sad that no ship has become canon, some with great moments of development together like Kamijirou and Kirimina, but with this ship I think it ends in a good way, somewhat implicit, but done in the best way.

    Hot take that shouldn’t be a hot take

    Ships aren’t what ruin the fandom, it’s people that let ships ruin their day and bash other people’s preferences that ruin it.
