Why do people like him so much? He's a loser who got groomed by a maniac to fuck with his arch nemesis. His backstory is getting beat by his dad and killing his family. He had no motive beyond "I want to upheave society because "???". It's been almost 300 chapters and the audience and the main cast have no personal grudge against him except that time he forced Bakugo into a sleepover.
AfO and Twice were more interesting characters so why are we stuck with this chump as our lead antagonist?
He's sexy
He's handsome and i wanna see him fuck Deku
Because we enjoy it, that's all. Stop searching for deeper meaning.
Well that's not the worst reason but it's not a good one either.
because "i want to destroy everything" is way better than a shit load of unnecessary reasons that so many antagonists in animes already have.
he just wants to destroy, why are you so butthurt OP?
Because he's still a worse version of the guy he's replacing
I see your exposure to bad writing has made you think that the most generic possible "bad guys" now amounts to good writing
the guy hes replacing got ass fucked by all might, if he stole shigarakis power that wouldnt have happened but Afo is a retard and wanted a successor
Lol, if it werent for villains having sad sappy stories trying to get me to feel bad about them I would like them. A villain with no reason is the best villain, chump
Read this
Okay that's fair honestly
A villain backstory doesn't exist solely to make you feel bad about it, it exists to give him more character and solidify his motives, a proper villain background doesn't need to be sad, it needs to be good and Shiggy's backstory isn't neither.
>Why do people like him so much?
anyone who wants to kill Deku can't be all bad
The entire plot of mnha is what happens after a better series ends and it shows
He's hot in a crusty goblin sort of way
>muh motives
not every villain has to think that he's doing the right thing and make the world a better place, retard
Like how All Might works as a symbol of peace, Shigaraki works as a symbol of evil. A symbol is simple enough that practically everyone understands it. They don't need to know All Might's backstory or his training with Gran Torino or his college years. They need a broad back, strong positive colors, an indomitable grin, and unyielding strength.
Shigaraki may not be as physically robust as AFO or All Might, but he wears dark colors. He has incredible power. He has a huge, gleeful grin masking murderous intent. You watch society crumble around him as he erupts into laughter. His lanky appearance and thin limbs make his attacks seem erratic and unpredictable. He exudes a fearful aura. And no longer does he follow. He now leads an army, with him as the overwhelmingly powerful figurehead.
In short, watching Shigaraki jump into the fray at this stage in his development is like watching All Might appearing in a battle, but on the evil side. You just know the entire tide is about to change.
What are you even going on about Spic? Proper backstories aren't there to make villains sound righteous, even fucking Joker, you know the guy that coined the "Crazy for the sake of Crazy" villain archetype had a backstory which is something this wave of Le wacky villains lack.
Also just for your info, again, Shiggy has a backstory and it's just not good.
>joker
>good villain
fuck off faggot
I'm sure if you try hard enough you'll find The Killing Joke translated in spanish.
>sad backstory
>no motives
by your logic, he would be shit
Joker has multiple backstories so really hard example to compare. Really for me I just don't find shiggy final boss material, interesting or that entertaining.
Shitty villain, shitty mc, shitty manga
Yeah he has a backstory and it made him become Mr Destroy-everything and that villain is pretty cool
That’s the point he’s aimless.
It’s almost the point of the story to me.
All might took a person with no means and good intentions and gave them an opportunity to play the game because he saw he could craft him to his liking, but part of this is all might wants him to be his own hero.
Shiggy as seen by AFO is similar take someone with good intentions and put them in a vulnerable state. Show them that “good” isn’t necessarily “good” while simultaneously doing the same with moral “bad”. He’s a complete puppet, AFO is obviously a god in his eyes and he knows that the gift of his power will bring absolute loyalty.
Shiggy is a puppet
This would be all right, if not for the fact that his justification isn't "I want to destroy everyting" but "I want to destroy everything because I'm butthurt that people didn't help me after I murdered my own family and a villain brainwashed me".
I agree with this user here, Shiggy have way to much motives which ironically make him really bland, like the author couldn't settle for one and keep adding stuff on, making him unnecessary complicate. this combine with his lack on charisma or anything that made him stand out make him a really bad villain.
is this the guy in every my hero thread crying about izuku seems like its something he would do
>Why do people like him so much?
>people

>"I want to destroy everything because I'm butthurt that people didn't help me after I murdered my own family and a villain brainwashed me".
He had some kind of attempted forgiveness /redemption arc, where he basically said "Fuck this. I' do what I want."
He doesn't care about his own back story. His character is honestly the only reason I still read this.
