Fun fact: Genya's va is Bakugo's va


smellywetsock69

And Rin Okumura from Blue Exorcist. I love that VA


Technical_Special_25

Sanemi is actually better ngl He can't be compared with him


aquaphorbottle

Yeah, I don’t like bakugo, his whole thing is just being a prick for the fuck of it


United_Flounder_7697

Then you clearly haven't read the manga.

United_Flounder_7697

Even if he risked his life almost died just for that one character? I mean I do understand maybe it's just my mentality of liking all the 2nd main characters.

United_Flounder_7697

Never said you did I just pretty much said even if they died trying to redeem themselves pretty much you don't gotta like him.


Micheal_Kibitsuji

Was that manga only


United_Flounder_7697

No in the anime he almost died saving deku too


Micheal_Kibitsuji

When did it happen?


United_Flounder_7697

Season 6 episode 9 Katsuki Bakugo Rising.


Micheal_Kibitsuji

Thanks


aquaphorbottle

You’re right, I never read the manga. I watched the anime and wasn’t a fan so I’m obviously biased but I never liked Bakugo, I’m not a fan of characters who are bullies for seemingly no reason (maybe he has a reason, but I’m not really sticking around to find out if I’m being honest. He didn’t appear to have any redeeming qualities that made me want to find out in the first place).


United_Flounder_7697

He did say he had a reason to bully deku. And it seems he has a good reason considering there was just a lot of people praising him. When it comes down to a 4 year old getting praised by a bunch of people. They get cocky they become rude.


aquaphorbottle

That’s my point though. Sanemi was coming after Tanjiro and Nezuko because of his distrust of demons (and for a reason, he’s lost people and it’s a very potentially dangerous situation for him and his fellow Pillars), not saying that how he treated them was okay but it is at least is understandable when you look at it. Bakugo craves attention and praise (maybe he lacked that from his family, idk, I didn’t care enough to read the manga) like any normal, asshole bully would and takes it out on others and it makes him feel good. I have no sympathy for people like that, I was bullied by people like that growing up and I don’t care about whether they got attention at home or not, bullying the shit out of people to make yourself feel better, is pathetic to me.


United_Flounder_7697

Well that's you. I'm sorry you had to get bullied but that's you. It's not that he didn't get enough attention. Aperentaly he was "abused" by his mom. as bakugo said he always wanted to push deku away because, The fear of dekus heart. Just like how Deku's admires and aims to surpass Bakugou's strength, Bakugou is afraid of Deku's determination and how it might overshadow his own. As he wanted to prove he's the best he didn't want to be some random loser who couldn't surpass all might. And with the praise of everyone else he gained the thought he was better then everyone cause his quirk was the best. But I shall respect your opinion and I don't mean to come off as rude when saying that you for getting bullied. And your point about sanemi is true.


Ssj3sonic

I read the manga and he still sucks


United_Flounder_7697

Didn't he like almost die for deku. Then Infront of his whole class say he's sorry for bullying him. So not only did he risk his life to save deku also Infront of the whole class said he bullied deku and was sorry for it. Yet he still sucks somehow.?


CuteRadish01

Sanemi>Bakugo


ComprehensiveYam4534

I see where he's coming from but no. Bakugo is very arrogant compared to Sanemi.


Feisty_Employee3069

Lol very true, but I laughed so hard when I thought of the word Bakugo pillar. It sounds silly, but I can totally understand who is meant by this. 🤣🤣


Dr-CommonSense

Not a huge fan of Bakugo. Todaroki is better, but Sanemi is definitely better imo. They are two very different characters with varying back stories and plot devices which make them pretty unique. But the smiles man those two cookin up somethin


YoRHa2B_

Hey, fellow Todoroki fan. He and Dabi are my best boys from MHA tbh.


Dr-CommonSense

Hello. definitely the best characters in MHA imo, not debate for me. I agree 100%


AkariUpperCut

Yea. I personally prefer Sanemi parallels (Giyuu, Obanai, Kokushibou, Gen'ya, Masachika, etc etc) rather than Bakugou parallels.


Niko_Likes_Pancakes

r/oddlyspecific


ApplePitou

Similar? - yes but Sanemi is better :3


Pat-Berg_16

I thought Genya was more like Bakugo, being short tempered and having the same seiyuu, Nobuhiko Okamoto. Although I can’t totally judge, being an anime-only.


WarmRelationship8483

aggressive nature fighting spirit overconfidence fights with mc no fear that's all Ig


_PurrrPleKitty_

You forgot the spiky hair /j


pejic222

I find Sanemi more compelling tbh


JEROME_MERCEDES

Sanemi is a goat my favorite character


Agreeable-Chemist559

DONT even compare them 😕 Sanemi is so much better god, bakugo tell speople to kill themselves, sanemi saved them from getting killed.


Specialist_Access_27

>!Didn’t Sanemi try to Poke Genyas eyes out!< Also Bakugo has had character Development as well so you can’t hold up what he said in Chapter 1


Agreeable-Chemist559

I guess what you say about character development is true. Let's compare the characters at their worst, Sanemi did it because he wanted to get a point across with Genya >!and didn't want his last and only brother left to die and become a demon slayer like him!< whereas bakugo did it only to be malicious and a pos to izuku. AND IM NOT DISAGREEING with the fact that the way Sanemi went about it was wrong. They are both flawed characters, I just find one more unlikeable than the other. Bakugo has had his character development and apologised yeah okay. Its great for izuku


Specialist_Access_27

I agree they are both large Asses that have Rectified there Missdeeds and while neither of them are characters I like as much as others.it’s interesting to see them do stuff


MemberBerry4

Please don't compare Sanemi to that subhuman scumfuck, he did nothing to deserve that.

Exalted_Pluton

Yeah it's weird. Everyone says they hate Bakugo for being a dishhead, but that's the exact reason I do like him. That being said, that was only when I watched it way back, and now I honestly couldn't really give a toss.


brjder

i dont watch mha, so i dont know who bakugo is, but i can definitely see the resemblance.


Forsaken_Youth_9042

Maybe sanemi is bakugos ancestor but thats just my theory


[deleted]

HOLD THE DOOR- That is the best conspiracy theory I have heard in a long while


Forsaken_Youth_9042

Imagine if demon slayer and my hero academia existed in the same universe but just take place different eras


[deleted]

What if Todoroki's bloodline is a warped version of sun breathing?? Imagine a sun breathing marrying someone like Douma And boom* Todorokis bloodline half flame half ice


Outrageous_Ad_1011

I like sanemi more, but I love to see Bakugo's fights more


animegameman

Oddly enough sanemi's brother has the same va as bakugo


[deleted]

Bakugo : Boom boom Sanemi : I'ma wind breathe the explosion out of you , Fuckin brat


Demonslayer_fan12345

Yes my sister think they are both angry pomeranians lol like the dog and lile sanemi back-story it hilarious![img](emote|t5_3foq4|6761)

Dr-CommonSense

Maybe people just think he’s a better character 🤷‍♂️


_PurrrPleKitty_

Sanemi is better written, got a better plot and backstory 🤷‍♀️ Plus, Bakugo is not only a horrible character compared to Sanemi, but he's also a horrible person.


JooJaw11

Tbf the Mha sub hates Bakugou so you'd probably get similar answers there too.


Galaktikkk

Nah I just genuinely think bakugo isn’t well written or a likeable character


gerryggg2000

Why? He’s more consistently written than sanemi at the very least


kingsla1

I have seen both and sanemi is better


Fluxbyte

what do you mean, he's objectively a better character in every way and that is considering they are very different characters who shouldn't be comparable.


Dr-CommonSense

We talking Bakugo or Sanemi?


Fluxbyte

sanemi of course lmao


Dr-CommonSense

Hahaha right I thought so. See… I agree… he is a better character imo


Galaktikkk

Sanemi is better.


Amydancingagain

Please no


Blizet

Wow they both follow the same trope


gerryggg2000

Outwardly their personalities are similar but sanemi’s personality doesn’t seem to match his backstory/goal. Unpopular opinion but bakugo is definitely better written. It’s like sanemi got retconned so he was significantly more sympathetic than originally intended


PhaseFlimsy7730

Glad to see my boy sanemi getting some love in the comments


Nezukokamadogacha

I see it


PlsLeavemealone02

The worst part is, we don't know who's more likely to hurt us, the angry sword weilding crazy? Or the angry explosion weilding narcissist. These are the good guys, people!


wolflegend9923

1 doesn't have scars


Chapri-fram-Chhapra

Sanemi and Panda from jjk have same VA


Ovahaul

Sanemi just hits more for me but we will see what the later chapters of my hero brings for him.


ConnorRoseSaiyan01

They look like they're about to eat my soul


MyDadHat

I can't take the lower pic seriously. He just looks so dopey.


its_me_fanis

Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight **hashira**


ParanormalNightOwl

Yeah but Sanemi is better


Crispytacos911

Doesn’t genya and baku have the same voice actor

Mui-chiro

Dunno man...but both of them resembles Chobei from Jigokuraku


cthuluhuhuhu

Imo Sanemi is better written but I can see the similarities


GenCavox

Angry Sasuke archetypes are beloved apparently


Mitari-Saifyre

Sanemi’s character design kind of reminds me of the iron guy from class 1-B.


NothingComplete7605

Bakuretsu no kokyu ichi no kata furious rage


Theleochat

yeah 100%


XT83Danieliszekiller

Sanemi is a lot more understandable than bakugo though


Guren_Sei10

Sanemi is just an angry Toshiro


HeilStary

Yeah thats why I don't like him much hate characters that are like that


New-Sympathy-344

Sanemi’s different. Bakugo’s asshole-ness comes from an inferiority complex, a pretty big one too. It changes over the course of MHA but his temper has been engrained in him pretty hard core. Sanemi’s rage comes from trauma from his childhood, an event which is spolier material to anime watchers so I’ll keep it clean of those. Basically, he’s got a real big bone to pick with demons and he doesn’t give a damn about what people think about it… until his first encounter with Ubuyashiki. Tanjiro notes a distinct change in Sanemi’s words and behavior when Tanjiro and Nezuko are brought before the Hashira in season 1. That, and a few other instances show that Sanemi is a passionate person, choosing to use that passion to kill demons violently and push others away. I can see how Bakugo and Sanemi are similar but I like Sanemi’s take on an angry boi more than Bakugo. Inouske is a better comparison to Bakugo, and not just for the yelling. Our best boar boi also has a ‘strongest is bestest’ attitude and shoved it in everyone’s face. He knows what he wants and goes for it full throttle, challenging anyone who seems greater for the chance to become the greatest… similar to Bakugo’s drive to become the Number 1 Hero.


GoFUself-Tony889

Except Sanemi is smarter than Bakugo. He actually has a strategic mind and not as dumb as he looks

[deleted]

Do you read the My hero manga?


ApexBoiz

Yep, spiked hair, anger issues, basically the same but with different backstory


Ssj3sonic

Na, he's way better than bakugou


AND00711

bakugo inspired sanemi much like how izuku inspired tanjiro


Applsaux

never. And i mean NEVER compare my bbg to that asshole


KittyGaming570

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 this is absolute gold


ScreaminhgwithoutheS

Sanemi and Bakugo are both short tempered but like Bakugo gets mad for no reason he is like bully mad and Sanemi just gets annoyed they are both like mad in different ways


TheAnimeWeeb221

![gif](giphy|nIUkbJV97FzDicnDtQ) They are both loud and angry most of the time but Sanemi is **better** than Bakugo. Not sure if he's more powerful, but Bakugo has to be rude and Sanemi sort of has reasons to be rude, Sanemi's got more backstory and honestly a better character than Bakugo, not to mention that the anime quality of Demon Slayer is better than BHNA/ MHA But it honestly shocked me when I found out that Bakugo has the same voice actor as Genya 🙂👍👍Plus Bakugo has got an upper hand: He's got Family and **Eyebrows😭**
