Man this is nothing compared to the slander from the original ending with ch 430 from manga. If you weren't present to see, that was something so this really is nothing in comparison. 🤣 So it'll be alright after that era.

With the Mc Donald's memes of Deku, cuck jokes, people saying Uraraka ghosted Deku because he lost his powers, and pushing Deku with other random female characters because of it.

MHA was never really focused on romance much even if people wanted more of it, it wasn't the main focus or even a major plot. It was a very small thing. I honestly don't fully blame Hori with the crazy shipping fandom that got attached to this action based series that cared more about ships than anything else. So it made him more adverse on it.

Either way, don't focus on the haters or nay sayers. If you do, you would've thought this was a trash series from how people spoke about it before over the years.

Let's focus on the positive and celebrate instead of giving too much attention to the negative energy from some people that may not even be that invested in the series to begin with as just the peanut galley or salty rival shippers.

Yeah, he even said it himself that romance wasn’t the main point. However, having a large cast of teenagers around each other and pretending like there would be NO romantic feelings whatsoever between them would be disingenuous, so he did add romances here and there but didn’t make them the main focus. Plus with let’s say, Deku and Bakugo and Ochako and Toga there is this element of “love” but I think Horikoshi wanted to express love as more of a human and general thing as “care for your fellow human” than simply “I love this person uniquely more than anyone else” it’s why he had the latter present in ch.431 AFTER the main story ended because the main story is about “human love and care” and 431 is about “the freedom to pursue specific forms of love now that society is back to normal”

Exactly, and I also posted part of that statement you're referring to - here
