Shigaraki Diary Entry:
This story? 5 stars. It’s about my life, after all…
But it's certainly not five stars because of its cleanliness or refinement.
No, it's because it tears into my life, gnawing away piece by piece until only the truth remains.
Sometimes, I even wish I could return to my childhood, to a time before things went… wrong. Why does life always feel like it’s marked by tragedy? Why does it relentlessly diminish even the things you believed to be secure?!?
And her… we were destined to unite like two chaotic forces that comprehended each other in ways no one else could. She-
(No. Stop. This isn’t about her…)
As I was saying, this story doesn’t center on happy endings, or at least, that’s how I see it, So if you came for those heroes everyone desperately clings to, you have come to the wrong side of Zaun, Piltover is the other way… Heh, always determining what is justice, they think because they call themselves enforcers, they become the good guys…
If I were to define myself at this moment, In my old world I could be called a villain. However, it feels like I didn’t really have a choice in the matter.
You see, in a place like Zaun, being a hero would only leave me tired and exhausted. There were too many problems and too few people to care. Yet I still remembered a group. They flew around on hoverboards, seemed to want to protect things, and then the one with Pink hair…
(Again, Shigaraki, you are getting sidetracked…) “I know!!! Shut Up!!!”
Finally, where was I, oh right this story claws into all the deceptions, betrayals, and decisions that have shaped me into the person I am today. From the moment I killed my family to the time I stepped onto the streets of Zaun, to every happy or sad moment that has taken place until now will be exposed to you raw.
So, if you came to see my life, read it. I can’t give you a simple answer; after all that would be too impartial and complex.
But I hope you can understand my position and the reasons behind my choices.
Maybe that way I will feel less guilty for what I am about to do next…
