Up until now, the idea of Compress being a big underworld ruler just came across as silly to me - he’s an entertainer, and no one seems to bat an eye at him. This information has just come out of nowhere with nothing to base it on - or has it? Until One’s Justice 2, of all things, decided to do it for him, and drop THIS bomb on all of us. Horikoshi unfortunately hasn’t given him anything thus far to make him compelling enough (not saying that people don’t like him though, I know that he has plenty of stans). On the surface, Compress has always seemed like someone just coming along for the ride, similarly to Spinner, but with even less reason to do so, and this lack of character motivation is largely the reason why Compress isn’t among the most popular villains. So, given all that, what exactly is his reason for being in the League? He is the only one in the whole group whose motivation we still don’t know - hell, even with Dabi we know that he at least despises false heroes. He doesn’t like being on the front linesĪnd…that’s pretty much it. Let’s give a run-down of everything important we know about him so far in canon: But what separates Compress from Dabi is that we’re given a tremendous amount of screentime and hints alluding to who Dabi really is, many of which include very personal ties and connections to some big-name characters.
Over the course of bnha, Mr Compress has proven himself to be one of the few characters that we know jack all about, even going so far as to give Dabi a run for his money in the mystery department. So I was recently talking to a friend about the possibilty of when Compress’s backstory might be revealed, and I ended up having a massive brainwave in the midst of it in regards to just what said story might actually be. Connecting the dots on Mr Compress’s backstory (slight manga spoilers ahead)
