i absolutely adored how he was more than willing to put his pride down, and that this wasn’t done on a whim to bring deku back. he’s been thinking about this for a while now and it really shows. THIS is how you successfully add show don’t tell without glorifying the bully
taking a moment to appreciate the whole bakugou apology thing again cause as someone who spends a long time dealing and talking to kids/teens with bullying issues(doing and receiving end both) apologies and owning up to your mistakes NEED to happen.
convince the viewer that the abusive person has “changed”, and “developed”, but the thing is that these type of subjects? they need to be told. directly and straightforwardly. right at the victim. and that’s why i’m so glad bakugou’s apology was something cannon.
