|With that in mind, let's get to the question!|
Did the Hero Killer Stain's overarching message outfactor the forty professional heroes he slayed? TLDR: Is he more justified than not?
This goes out to all the anti-hero lovers.

My personal opinion with the situation of Stain is that he... well, to start off with; he has a sense of justice.
He went out of his way to save Deku during their first encounter against the flying nomu. Along with that, he praised All Might which is something he has uncommon with the criminals of MHA.
They all despise him and/or fear his aura. Whereas for Stain, he wants more people to be like that. His methods are unconventional, but I think it's better he did what he did. It creates a message and serves as a story for the generations of heroes to not own up to their costumes mainly for the showbiz.
The people he killed will not be in vain.
He is more justified than not, in my opinion.

Interesting, I don't think I've ever thought he was right or wrong in his actions. However if I had to pick a side, I'd say he was justified in doing them. However that doesn't mean every victim that died deserved it per say.
He had good..morals? Ykwim
But bro executed those horribly :fire:
He was more justified than not.
While Stain is no hero, considering his Interaction with the League it's clear he's no villain, either. He believes in justice, and he also believes that those who's duty and motivations lie solely in the people and justice deserve the title of hero. Often times those people are lower down the ladder, outshined by flashier heroes who would ignore a child in danger if nobody was watching. Given the nature of his quirk, as well, Stain took to overhauling the system the best way he could.
He had the right idea, but he went about accomplishing it the wrong way.
At the end of the day he was a murderer. The climate in mha is suffocating at the beginning and there is a clear problem with the hero system, something drastic did need to happen and I agree with that 100%, but because stain was a criminal the wrong organization usurped his message and ended up spinning it into something that was a far cry from his ideas.
In the end, I don't think people deserve to die for being a bit corrupt. He was harming people, and putting onlookers in danger, there are other ways to solve problems and violence wasn't the answer.
Imo his message was good, but his actions were not justifiable. He should have been aiming for the hero commission, not pro heroes like Iida’s brother who are out on the streets protecting civilians lol
