@Hikari_Owari How does that disprove my point? Just because these people had more complex, morally grey motives doesn't automatically make them good people or justify their actions.

My point is that's easier to cheer for the villains.
At least those had motives to be like that, while the heroes just impose their way because, well, they're heroes. (sound of mind-blowing realization)

They in any moment so far bothered in knowing what happened for them to turn into villains.
Why fix the root if I can just punch the result.

Endeavor is the standpoint that'll show if it's a good story or not, everyone now knows that Dabi is the result of Endeavors toxic treatment with his children.
He made Dabi, imposed his selfish desires on him, told him he wasn't good enough and made a new toy (shouto) to play with while neglecting him until he burned himself alive.

Stain is the closest thing to a hero the series had, the only who saw the big picture and Identified what needed to change.

A society saturated with heroes and still can't prevent situations that would give birth to a villain.

In no point I said they were good people.
That's you trying to prove something nobody argued against.
But neither are some of the heroes, so why they're still... heroes?
The villains have reasons to justify they being like that, the heroes just completed a course and take it as a job.

I just want to see what they'll say to Toga to justify Twice's death when Hawks could've just restrained him further, but I guess killing is fine as long as the villain is the one dead...

Edit: added parts into spoiler

@Hikari_Owari Twice was too dangerous to stay alive, he could just make an army of all for one for example, sure they would be more fragile but the destructive power and quantity were already very scary

That's a lame excuse because it assume jailing him wouldn't be enough of a solution, but every other villain got jailed if not killed in combat.
Heck, by that logic even heroes with powerful quirks should be killed then, by the chance of them turning into villains at some point.

See how that excuse is lame?

My two cents regarding chapter 305:
Actually got me close to tearing up.
When they spoke of murdering Shigaraki, I felt a little bit let down, because it felt like leaning towards putting Shigaraki in the position of 'ultimate unredeamable evil'. Granted, he's probably the closest to being unredeamable among all characters in this story. (I don't count AfO here, because as of right now that guy is just absurdly evil, as if there wasn't ever even a speck of humanity within him to begin with, until we get a proper backstory.)
What got me close to tears was Deku's resolution for the murder proposal. It's not 'muh, but I wanna save everyone.', it's that he goes in with the goal of saving him, but is aware of what needs to be done if it's not feasible. There's something really humane about that decision. Killing should only ever be the back-up plan, not the first solution. In such a crazy quirk filled world, chances are way higher that there's chance for redemption through super-natural means. Abandoning that avenue right from the start would be a mistake in my opinion. But there is the chance that it's not possible, so Deku mentallly preparing for that possibilty is what makes his resolution work for me.

if they were going to have shiguraki die in the end he should have just been killed so deku could keep his quirk, all that was managed was giving him a few more moments to live and realize all for one ruined his life. now his story will inspire the next generation of villian while the guy that took him down is relegated to support work since he no longer has a quirk. (or they will extend this 'remnant' bullshit to last a career somhow)

i hope in the remaining epilogue they reverse the quirk removal from deku. eri maybe? even if one for all has to die with deku he should still get the hero career he deserves

I dropped it after the villain arc since it was one of the most boring arcs I have ever read. Now the author means to tell you that the series that started with the concept of someone who is not born with the advantages of his peers tries to achieve greatness through effort.....ends up conforming in the shadows of the ones who were born gifted.....I kinda see why people are a little mad at the ending.
