MHA: A Perspective On Nighteye

 





Nighteye wasn't always that strict. He was one of All Might's biggest fans,admired him,and became his sidekick for until 6 years. During his battle against All For One,he got critical injuries. Nighteye begged All Might to retire and told him to look for a One For All successor at the U.A School,particularly Mirio Togata. After their dispute,they went their separate ways. Even if we know Nighteye's strict and cold personality,he actually do in fact have a soft side and values humor. He believes that a world without smiles and humor has no bright future. The point of him is that he was designed and meant to represent the intention of invoking the stereotypical image of Japanese men. That's why he was so strict,cold and had authority. Despite All Might choosing Deku as his successor instead of Mirio,he wasn't that happy,since Deku was Quirkless when All Might found him. By the time,Nighteye didn't know that a Quirkless person was required. He's quick and very open whenever he would make mistakes. Nighteye became very fearful of his own Quirk,scared of any visions he would see,pretty much made him paranoid. He soon met Mirio and took him under his wing. He became his pride and joy. Nighteye was a special person to Mirio. He wasn't just a mentor to him. He was the one who managed to improve Mirio's abilities and turned him into the number one studant at the U.A. At first,Nighteye only saw Mirio as the most suitable candidate to replace All Might,but during the time he was training him for that role,he learned that Mirio holds a deep respect and admiration for him and understands his behavior,becoming his most treasured student. During the Shie Hassaikai raid,he hugs his seriously-injured pupil after rescuing and protecting Eri from Overhaul. A proud Sir Nighteye praises and congratulates Mirio for everything that he has done,but is devastated to learn that Mirio had lost his Quirk when he was hit by a Quirk-Destroying bullet while protecting Eri. Nighteye literally tried to protect Mirio,Deku and Eri until he got badly hit. And you think he's being a dickhead? You don't even know how much respect and honor Sir Nighteye is. He's a true hero. If you don't think he is and that he's an assole,screw you. You don't know what a real hero like him is. In the hospital,Mirio rushes into the room to plea to him to hold on to teach him more,reminding him that he only became strong thanks to his help and training. Nighteye comforts Mirio,using his Quirk one final time to see into his future. Sir Nighteye passes away peacefully and smiling,after assuring Mirio that he will become an outstanding hero. That's when Mirio burst out crying. Pretty much later on,Nighteye received a funeral. That shows how much he got respect from everyone. Later on as well during the School Festival when Class A was doing their performance and Eri started smiling for the first time,not only was Mirio felt happy about it,he claims if only Nighteye was there to see this,with tears falling down on him. Nighteye's death truly was impactful. I remember crying my head off uncontrollably when it happened and I still cry even nowadays. I also used to dislike his strict attitude at first when he first debuted,but when I found out he truly is a real hero and sacrificed himself to save not just his student,but Deku and Eri as well,I started crying and he has deserved my whole respect. So when he died,a part of me also died. We know what they say,it's better to learn on who someone really is before judging them. Thanks to Nighteye's courage,I learned to take care of myself and to continue on not giving up no matter how hard life gets. He's my hero and always will be.

My Review on My Hero Academia Season 6

 

**This is my review of Season 6 episode 16 from My Hero Academia**
Hello there. Today's review is episode 16 of My Hero Academia Season 6. Warning. This contains spoilers,so read at your own risk. If you don't want to be spoiled,look away.

                                    The Most Heartbreaking Episode Yet

This episode really heartbroke me. I can't even watch Hawks' past fully because it was way too much. And yeah,his past shall enter the ''Things you shouldn't be searching for'' iceberg. I cried a whole fountain today and i'm not even kidding. Really,do NOT search it up. Glad Beast Jeanist is staying next to him as his bodyguard. The whole situation with Endeavor is heartbreaking as well. All the remorse he's feeling right now and the regret. Something about him crying like that is hard to watch. Rei taking her time to see him is really wholesome. It shows that she still cares about him even after what the whole family and herself has been put through during all this time prior to the series. Shoto is.. Well he's Shoto.
Some good details went into this episode. We get to see Hawks' little Endeavor toy and how he even got it in the first place. This little toy glowing to him,it's just cute. In truth,his mom bought him the toy in the marketplace in order to keep him quiet. In exchange,she told him he can become as strong as him someday. There is a scene from an older episode of Season 6 where little Hawks talked to two older people and encouraged him to become a hero. This time here,they extended it and explained further on how this came to be. The flower Rei is holding behind her is a notch to the flowers that Endeavor made her see long time ago. The fact she's having one right now to visit him is genuine from their part. And... Of course we get to see about Dabi. Umm.. I mean Toya. We got the flashback from Dabi's dance and as well as the famous hug scene where he hugs Shoto. Not only that,but Hawks remembers the time when Toya called him by his real name. It brought me chills. Oh and yes,Hawks' past did reveal that his real name is indeed Keigo Takami.
Well,we got yet another ''said character is abused as a child'' trope. How many characters in MHA have this trope already? Not only that,but Hawks' mom reminds me of L from Death Note. Same kind of speaking.. Hell,she even sits just like him. Unfortunately,she saved her husband from the authorities when he committed murder. Despite this,their relationship was extremely stressed and this affected poor little Hawks. Because of all this,her relation with her son is negative and had to do anything her husband commands her to do and even as far as when he physically abuses poor Hawks,it goes to the point his mom had to not give him any short of emotional support. However,it was revealed Hawks received a letter from his mom after all these years following his recovery. She states she apologize for everything and causing trouble while telling her son how proud she is of him. Little Hawks watches Endeavor and All Might on tv. How cute! Endeavor defeating an elephant guy villain? Awesome! Oh and she eventually told about his father at some point,which got him caught by Endeavor. Awww.. Hawks' hero to the rescue,I guess. 
Now,i'm not gonna go in further details from Hawks' past because this is way too much. But,it is surprising that Endeavor has finally redeemed himself after all the incident. He eventually made a proper apology as well as for his entire family. Toya/Dabi really did affect him a lot and we can't blame him. Shoto closing the door on his was kinda funny. Nonetheless,the whole family made Shoto see him,which he finally accepted afterwards. The whole Endeavor apologizing to his family and crying got me into tears. He also promised to be a better person. It's a good thing for someone like Endeavor to finally gets development and getting the respect he deserve. Yes,we all hated on him and I don't blame anyone for it,but he's one of the few people who agrees on changing his ways and that's a good thing. He also has accepted being responsible for  what happened to Toya and him becoming a villain,in which the latter haunts him. Endeavor received support from his family ever since and came to the public about his past and promised to do anything he can to defeat the villains.
Now you may notice something. Why I haven't talk about Susugi's situation? It's mainly because the amount of abuse this episode has given already broke me.
