      While we’re on lgbt issues, MHA introduces a trans character as a villain and then kills them, they are the first named character in the show to die.

      It’s been so long since I watched the early seasons that I’d completely memory holed that part.

      Tbh I really can’t believe I’m defending BNHA, because I do not like it and it’s such a flawed story with incoherent themes and bad pacing (I mean like half the story is drawn out shonen tournament arc bullshit which has always been bad in every series to ever do it, most of which is even lower stakes and is just the class doing war game exercises) or bad worldbuilding ideas (like the “no quirk use without a hero license” thing that IIRC the author later regretted and sort of retconned in the notes that accompany the volumes) and other series do its whole thing better, but it is absolutely not as bad as Harry Potter either thematically or in terms of actual quality.
