AsdfGHJKL OMG GAB!! GAB!! I Read This Earlier In The Discord And Rushed to Come And Reblog It Because

what is ur inspiration

Okay, so!! Pretty much, even before all the Katsucrew and KariBaku was on my mind, I was obsessed with the idea of Katsuki like. having a whole separate life than we see in canon. I mean, it's not that hard to imagine, considering we've seen next to nothing about his personal, outside-of-UA life in canon. It would make sense to some people, since it's kind of accepted canon at this point that Katsuki's whole life revolves around Heroics, but I just never vibed with that thinking, y'know? I mean. Katsuki's a teenager, he's got to have some sort of outside life, right?

And when I started thinking about that, it kind of just combined with my personal HC about Katsuki being gay, and my mind immediately went Secret Boyfriend! Secret Boyfriend! Secret Boyfriend!

That thought alone was enough to get me pumped up, but before KariBaku I was a pretty staunch KiriBaku shipper, so all I thought of was perhaps making up an OC. But none of the ones I made seemed to fit the bill, and I kind of just ended up with this half-thought out concept that was just. going nowhere.

And then. And then. Oh my god, dear lord, I miraculously found what was, at the time, the one and only KariBaku fic out there in English, on AO3. Let me tell you, @pyrrhicwildfire was an absolute genius because that fic dragged me into rarepair hell and I have yet to leave. It was just something about the vibes of that fic, the banter, it stuck to my brain and refused to let go.

And because I was absolutely obsessed, after far too many rereads to count, I put my detective hat on and went searching. And I struck gold. I found this little corner of Japanese, and an even smaller corner of Korean, BNHAtwit and it was. It was phenomenal. I came across too many fantastic artworks, and in search for more, I learned the hashtags, learned the shipnames they used for KariBaku on the Asian side of Twitter, and I just kept finding more and more. And then when there wasn't more? I turned to Pixiv, overturned that for any scrap of content I could find, and then to Pinterest I went.

I really did become obsessed with this ship within a week. It was the greatest thing I'd ever found, and I was so fucking determined to share it!! And now we have a whole server, and amazing content that I look at every day of my life.

This whole thing was such an experience. And the fact that people actually love the 'verse I created out of a character once virtually unknown outside of those little corners Japanese and Korean anitwit, and a bunch of cobbled together OCs I thought up from low-res screenshots I took of the Aldera classroom, it's just. There's no words for how grateful I am to all the people who support this little monster of a concept I created, and the journey this ship took me on was just simply amazing.

I know I kinda deviated from your original ask, but yeah. In general my starting inspo was just the thought of Katsuki with a secret boyfriend, and then pyrrhicwildfire became my ultimate inspiration in writing this ship, and now all my friends in the KariBaku server are what keep me loving this ship <33

Wow, I am just. I legit can’t. You know that feeling where you’re so shocked you can barely think? This. This right here, oh my God, I am amazed. I just?

I love this. Holy fuck, I love this so freaking much. You know, I’ve always had a bit of trouble imagining what Kariage would do and how he’d act after the Sludge Incident, especially towards Katuski but this? This takes the cake, because I was actually tearing up. Literally tearing up because I just love this so much.

Just?? Kariage on his knees apologizing and crying because he thinks he’s such a coward for not trying to help Katsuki, the person he loves, even if he couldn’t have done anything at all?? Katsuki acknowledging that Kariage valuing his own life was smart and basically telling Kariage he has nothing to apologize for?? Absolute perfection, I love it so much.

And, just?? Katsuki round-a-bout saying that Kariage’s actually brave for facing him, telling Kariage he can make up for his self-perceived sin by choosing Katsuki?? I am deceased, I am sniffling as we speak, this is so freaking adorable.

I love how you have Kariage be so stupefied by Katsuki’s annoucement, like he’s just so legitimately shocked because Katsuki’s choosing him? And their adorable interactions make my heart squeeze so much because they’re just so cute?? Katsuki telling Kariage he’s an ugly-crier, the two having their first kiss, Kari telling Katsuki they’re gonna have so many dates because he’s gonna romance Katsuki right?? The Bakugou’s already knowing their son is crushing hard, Kari knowing Katsuki’s a secret romantic at heart, and the fucking “I’ll make you happy, Katsuki. I promise.” has got me crying from the cuteness overload, I’m just sdsfghjkdlkjhgfgshj

You’re literally one of the best content creators out there for KariBaku and it shows.

“…I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Katsuki.”

Katsuki stares at Kariage’s ugly, crying face, then huffs out a breath.

“Running away was the smart thing to do, don’t be an idiot,” he says, crossing his arms over his chest. He watches as Kariage tries, and fails, to wipe away the tears flowing from his eyes. He looks pathetic like this, kneeling before Katsuki in Katsuki’s bedroom, begging for forgiveness for a sin that Katsuki never regarded as one anyway.

Why would Katsuki be angry at Kariage for running away when he’d been captured by the sludge villain? Why would he hold it against him that he prioritized his own life, when Katsuki damn well knew that Kariage didn’t have the strength or power to fight back in the first place?

Katsuki didn’t blame him for anything, and yet, here he was.

Kariage says weakly, “I left, I could’ve at least tried—”

“You’re not strong enough to save me, and I never wanted to be saved anyway,” Katsuki says.

“Is that enough?” Kariage says, frustration written into his knit brows, his clenched jaw, his shaking fists resting over his lap. “Can you honestly say that’s enough, Katsuki? It’s not a matter of saving you, it’s a matter of being a coward.”

“I never said you weren’t. You were a coward.”

kariage my beloved <3

if katsuki’s cheeks spark when he’s flustered, does kariage’s ears smoke when /he/ is?

asdfghjk I am looking at this so freaking hard. Like, the cheek sparking thing is not going to be canon in my version of the ‘verse, but the absolute ingeniousness of having Kariage’s ears literally fucking smoke when Katsuki’s being far too cute for his own good?? Immaculate.

Like?? Imagine Kariage literally fucking smoking when Katsuki does anything. Katsuki wears Kariage’s huge ass hoodies? Katsuki curls up in a little ball when he’s sleeping? Katsuki training or working out his backyard? Katuki initating hugs and kisses? Katsuki smiling? Katsuki existing? This all results in Kariage getting so flustered that his ears start smoking and he coughs out smoke, and it’s the cutest, most unexpected thing ever.

asdfghjkl!! This is just absolute perfection, in my honest opinion <33

i saw ur title in my recommended and i came as fast as i could

♡ Daikikou Seika Art ♡

Here’s my first artwork for the Undercut-verse!! It took awhile only because of the sheer complexity of Seika’s character design (i.e. the patterns and her facial features), so hopefully I’ll be able to design the rest of the Katsucrew girls faster! 

It might take me a bit to draw Kariage and Yasushi, mainly because I have difficulty drawing males, but the whole crew will be done eventually! Seika’s character profile is also going to be the next one I’m going to post!!

In comparison to how she was drawn in the anime:

does the katsucrew apologize to izuku?

Okay, so, I hope you don’t mind, but I’m going to preface this answer with a bit of a warning: some people might not necessarily like my answer to this, however, I’m taking from my own experiences of being bullied, so please know that this has influenced how I’m answering this ask. Thank you for understanding!!

So, the thing is, the only two of the group that canonically bully Deku are Katsuki and Yasushi. You can have different opinions on whether Kariage was a bully or not, but I don’t actually consider him one! Thus, I don’t think he’d necessarily owe Deku an apology.

As for the rest of the Katsucrew: I think, overall, it’d vary.

For example, while Seika was shown to be one of the classmates to laugh when it’s revealed Deku wanted to go to UA, her character in the Undercut-verse is that of someone who’d be at least a little bit nice to even people she doesn’t like or care about. I’m considering whether or not I want her to apologize, but know that if she does, it’d be more of a general apology about what Deku went through rather than any one specific instance involving her.

Mito, another one of the crew canonically shown to laugh at Deku, I feel would contribute more in teasing Deku rather than outright bullying him. Because of this, she probably wouldn’t view her actions as being all that bad, especially in contrast to how other people treated him and most likely wouldn’t even think that it’s worth apologizing about.

Hifue would 100% call Katsuki out if he ever went too far, as would the rest of the crew. However, as someone who understands emotions in a rather distant way and regards Deku rather neutrally, she’d probably be one of the ones to not really care about the whole situation, especially since she doesn’t consider Deku a friend.

Henshuu, I feel, wouldn’t like Deku. She’s portrayed as someone who respects those that put in work and actively pursue their goals, so Deku’s complete lack of work ethic in regards to his dreams would most likely grate at her nerves. I know that she wouldn’t be on Katsuki’s level, but she was one of the gang who probably pushed Deku around a bit when they were younger. As for an apology, I don’t think she’d give one, as she’s someone very prideful and stubborn, but who knows where the ‘verse will take us?

However, out of the whole crew, I think the only one Deku would actively dislike would be Yasushi, who may or may not apologize and was, from what we’ve seen, nearly just as much of an asshole to Deku as Katsuki was. He’d also have a very neutral view of Kariage, someone who never outright bullied him but stood by while it happend. However, he’d probably harbor some jealously of the boy, considering his close relationship with Katsuki that was formed in half the time Deku knew Katsuki.

Please note that these interpretations might change come the actual story, but this is what I have for right now!!

tch.

Hello and welcome to the official KariKatsu Week Post! This event was put together by so many lovely people in the KariBaku discord server, and will take place February 8th to February 14th, focusing on any and everything Kariage and Katsuki-centric!

For those unaware, Kariage is Katsuki’s old middle school friend with the curly undercut. A niche interest and a rarepair, true, but crazier things have been shipped, haven’t they?

For those curious or wanting to participate, this event will be very casual, mostly due to the time frame. No money will be made off the content created for the week, and all submissions are accepted from full-on chaptered fics and drabbles to sketches and fully rendered artworks. As long as Kariage and Katsuki are the main focus and relationship, whether romantic or platonic, then you’re good!

As for the prompts, here they are!

These are just places to start, though! Feel free to take these and run, tear them to shreds, or set them on fire and dance on the ashes. Stick to these prompts, create your own, or do a mix of both, as long as Kariage and Katsuki are front and center!

I can't wait to see all the amazing things you guys will make! Happy creating!! ♡
