SHY - Vol. 2 Ch. 8 - Heartless

I like this subversion in how his attitude is unchanged in the new revelation of Shy's powers.

Usually, when a newbie/weak hero(ine) shows off their new skill, the cold hard-as-nails teacher is slightly impressed, cracks a rare smile, admits there's potential, et cetera. Take Aizawa-sensei from MHA. We all know the scene: Midoriya doesn't impress him with the new 'Super Power' Quirk he has and how it destroys his arm. When Midoriya uses only his finger instead of his whole arm, Aizawa is rather impressed with this and doesn't expel him from UA.

But Kira here? No, his reaction is a mere "Oh. Okay. You can use fire." and continues beating her down as if nothing happened. He's hardly fazed by revelations, and even during the Heroic BSoD(?) he isn't shaken enough for her to get a good hit him and shock him. I don't know why, but the fact that he's tougher than the tough guys really appeals to me.
 
Their power is derived from emotions which means she and most women would be strong as women are more emotional even in their logic they favor subjective over objective. This does not mean all women are like that nor does it mean that one is always using subjective reasoning all the time.
 
I can kinda relate to Stardust, but in a different way, in the moment, yeah I can fall to my emotions and understand others' in a deeper way, but through hindsight and foresight, I am completely puzzled at the actions of others when due to emotions, or I project myself as (I guess what might be) my ideal version of myself, I guess I've maybe learned enough about how my emotions to accurately predict my actions in relationship to my emotions to be talking about them in this way.
 
"She used too much power"
-the guy who pushed her to use all her power


Man, this guy's shades must be completely opaque because he can't see more than two feet ahead
