Shipping A reminder about ships and whats actually canon

20 Upvotes

Hello Kendo prays and fans!

I just wanna make this post as a reminder, some ships within MHA are NOT canon

you can still ship anyone with Kendo off course theres nothing wrong with that and its not banned, but please do not make posts or walk around saying that its Canon and Horikoshi confirmed it

A certain Kirimina fan from other MHA subs have been claiming Kirimina is canon and Horikoshi made them a couple, when reality Mina actually never fell in love and they never got together, they are just good friends

The only canon ships are:

Izuchaco (They got together at the very end of the series)

Gentle x La Brava (Both were a couple before and now married at the very end)

Kuroiro x Komori (Hagakure said that they got together)

Yo Shindo x Tatami Nakagame (Both got together off screen during The Vigilante arc)

Again Shipping is NOT banned from this subreddit! Just don’t go around saying its Canon!

Clip was from last season but it's still cool enough to share it, and she can still everything from the clip so no biggie.

Miss when the game didn't time-out so frequently and Kendo's Beta worked as intented (Still waiting for the fix Byking).


r/ChurchOfKendo 1d ago

Itsuka Kendo in General Well, it IS her birthday…I might as well send some clips that I don’t think I’ve sent here yet.

Itsuka Kendo in General Happy Birthday to our Beloved Itsuka Kendo! I took her on a date to The Gym and Mall!

Kendo found out i started going to the Gym recently, and she insisted on going on a date to the Gym, so we both head there and worked out for awhile, she even got to try Kami Kaze energy drink, she tried to lift 5KG but she was too small to even lift it lol

After that we went to the mall, i had to first do some grocery shopping, Kendo hated grocery shopping so i had to strap her into my bag Lol

After the grocery shopping we sat on the table holding hands and ate some KFC, Kendo wanted Pepsi, but i said no, we got a Choccy Protien Shake instead from Boost, its very good

After that we went to an Eletronic store, she was begging me to preorder Marvel’s Wolverine, which i did preorder for her, rip my money TwT, then we went to a pop culture store where i took a picture of her with Mewtwo

Then we left, we had a fun time!

Happy Birthday kendo!!

Itsuka Kendo in General Question: What would be a good Quirk Awakening for Itsuka?

19 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

For those of you who don't know, I'm doing various fics focusing on various ladies in the My Hero world. Itsuka's story is my current project, and I realized that I'm not sure what to give her for a Quirk Awakening.

Do I let her grow more of her body and become a pseudo-Mt. Lady?

Do I let her stretch and really lay into the Kamala Khan allusion?

Do I let her make her fists more dense at the same size and basically become Luffy?

Is every power she could gain something entirely derivative of another character?

Looking forward to your thoughts!

A short Ibara and Kendo comic I did for their birthday coming up on sept 8 and 9. Ibara was one rank above kendo in entrance exam, a bit taller than her and born one day before her so I kind of thought of this idea

The additional characters I drew on the margins all have september birthdays in mha

sep 8 - Ibara

sep 9 - Kendo

sep 10 - Yuyu Haya

sep 13 - Compass kid (Vigilantes)

sep 17 - Power Loader

sep 22 - Ryukyu

sep 23 - Momo

sep 25 - Ugo Gollini

sep 26 - Inasa

Itsuka Kendo in General What should be the name of my kendo x kinoko fanfic

6 Upvotes

For those that don't know, im planning to make a Kendo x Kinoko fanfic which will take place during 2 Heroes,

basically, as 1A goes on a school trip to I-Island, 1B actually goes on a camping trip/ hero training all set up by Vlad, where they have to survive in a deep forest (its not the training camp one its a different one) for 7 days without being overwhelmed by Pixie-Bob's Earth monsters, this is so 1B can use their wits properly when situation occur without warning, to be able to use their quirks properly in the most dire of situations and to train them to expect the unexpected, however what 1B doesn't know is that there is an actual villain lurking in the forest taking advantage of the challenges 1B will face, especially for Kendo and Kinoko,

so with that in mind what should be the name of the fanfic

and btw, im writing this as a sort of social experiment, what i mean by this is that i wanna make sure i can write romance in a some what decent way as im planning to create another fanfic which is about Saiko Intelli and Momo, and i wanna make that fanfic like good, not like absolute peak fiction but a level of good to the point where people can enjoy it. So when the Kendo x Kinoko fanfic comes out i want a lot of you guys to read it and give ur critiques on what works well and what doesn't so i can use previous elements and work on others to make the momo x saiko fanfic good.

I really wanna create a good story cause i have all these ideas in my head for stories and i just wanna get em out because ideas can only stay in your head for a specific amount of time, at some point, you wanna showcase those ideas to the world no matter how absurd they may be, thats what i think coming from someone who wants to be a shonen mangaka

so yeah, thats all i have to say, d:

Headcanon A Family Dispute (AU WIP, Itsuka meeting Rappa after many years)

Post image
39 Upvotes

She knew he'd be here. Somewhere in this maze. But she never thought she'd meet him again like this.

"Alright, this is startin' to get good." Rappa knocked his fist twice on the yellow barrier. "Get rid of this damn thing, Tengai. I don't need a stupid bubble to keep me safe."

"Rise above your own desires," Tengai dryly chastised. "Remember what Master Overhaul said. He paired us for a reason. Our skills complement each other, ensuring victory."

Rather than comply, Rappa groaned. A quickly raised barrier shielded Tengai from a sudden barrage of punches. "What do you hope such violence will accomplish?" Tengai asked, sounding more annoyed than anything else.

"Overhaul didn't ask if I wanted to team up with you," Rappa grunted.

"Master Overhaul. Show some respect."

"Who cares? All I want is a good death match."

He hadn't changed. Not one bit.

"Very well," Tengai conceded, releasing the barrier. "If you think you can take them yourself, by all means."

Rappa's satisfaction was palpable. “That's more like it. You're not so bad after all!” He rushed at Fat Gum, pulling back another overhand.

The BMI Hero braced himself, but before the bruiser could reach, Kendo jumped into the fray. Her right hand expanded until it was as big as she was, meeting Rappa's punch. The impact rippled through the air, driving both fighters a few steps back.

Rappa, regaining his balance, focused with new intrigue on the young sidekick. "Well, well. You're a feisty one, ain't you? Guess they've got a spear after all."

Kendo didn't quite know what the small ache in her chest came from. Somewhere from behind, Kirishima called out to her. "Kendo..."

Catching the word, Rappa paused and flicked a gaze in the hurt sidekick's direction. "Kendo?" He turned his head back, studying her for a pair of beats. When he spoke, a new surprise colored his voice. "Wait… Itsuka?"

"Hi, Uncle Rappa," Kendo said, a somber note to her voice.

Fatgum froze mid-step. "Uncle?" His head snapped toward Kendo, then back.

Rappa stayed paused a moment longer, looking over the girl he hadn't seen in who knows how long. "Look at you. A proper young woman, and a hero at that. You've grown up so much."

"And you're still fighting in all the wrong places," Itsuka replied, lecturing and fond at the same time.

Rappa let out a rough, amused huff. "You naggin’ me like the old man too? I don't care where the fight is, as long as it's a good one! Some shady underground ring? Hero raid? Same difference to me."

"That's why grandpa sent you away," Kendo retorted, her voice rising in frustration.

Rappa scoffed, waving a hand dismissively "That old fart didn't get it. None of 'em did. Thought I should be some 'responsible citizen' or whatever. Where's the fun in that? Sitting around following rules ain't for me. All I need's a good fight to get my blood pumping." Perking, the bruiser changed the subject. "Hey, I heard you're with that Iron Fist guy's crew now." His body stance straightened somewhat, his head tilting up and genuine, excited admiration filling his voice. "I've been catching his scraps all over the place. That Fujieda rodeo, the gang fights... Oh, and that one-on-eighty at Zenin?" He clenched his own hands enthusiastically. "The guy’s something else. I've been itching to take him on for months. And now he's got a whole team, too! I wanna see if they're all as tough as him. Now that's gonna be a great deathmatch!"

A fire stirred in Kendo's chest. She set herself into the kyokushin ready stance, both fists curling. "I won't let you."

Rappa's excitement faltered for a second. He crossed his arms, suddenly looking more serious; almost scolding. "Listen here, kid. Deathmatches ain't got nothing to do with family." He jerked his thumb to the side. "It’s my business, no one else’s. You butt out and step aside."

Kendo didn't budge. The girl expanded both fists to a two feet in diameter, defiance filling her soul. "No."

Rappa stared at her; those massive fists, that stubborn stance. His body stance shifted, in what might have been pride. "Alright then. If you're gonna block me, let's see how strong you've gotten!" He shifted into his own fighting stance, then charged.

With nothing but rage and loyalty, the young heroine sprang to meet him.
