Rap do Shigaraki - o Novo Simbolo do Medo

Takeru's 'Rap do Shigaraki - o Novo Simbolo do Medo' delves deep into the psyche of Tomura Shigaraki, a character from the popular anime and manga series 'My Hero Academia.' The song explores Shigaraki's transformation from a neglected and abused child into a formidable villain, driven by a deep-seated hatred for heroes and society's injustices.

The lyrics begin by highlighting Shigaraki's disillusionment with heroes, who he perceives as hypocritical figures that abandon their families for the sake of others. This sentiment is rooted in his traumatic childhood, where his father despised heroes and subjected him to abuse, while his family remained passive. This neglect and violence shaped Shigaraki's worldview, leading him to embrace destruction as his only means of expression and power. The line 'Com apenas um toque eu matei' (With just one touch, I killed) signifies his awakening to his destructive abilities and the twisted sense of satisfaction it brings him.

As the song progresses, Shigaraki's isolation and inner turmoil are evident. He wanders aimlessly, seeking help but finding none, which only fuels his hatred and desire for vengeance. The recurring itch and craving for destruction symbolize his growing madness and the irreversible path he's chosen. The hands he carries, remnants of his family, serve as a constant reminder of his past and his mission to annihilate heroes. The chorus, 'Só basta um toque' (Just one touch), emphasizes his lethal power and his intent to become the ultimate villain, instilling fear in heroes and society alike.

The final verses depict Shigaraki's alliance with All For One, a powerful villain, and his determination to attack U.A. High School, a symbol of heroism. His confrontation with heroes like Eraserhead and Izuku Midoriya underscores his resolve to expose the fragility of justice and the hero system. Shigaraki's declaration to become the 'símbolo do medo' (symbol of fear) encapsulates his transformation into a figure of terror, challenging the very foundations of heroism and society's moral fabric.
