    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku is just getting settled into life in the dorms, as a rising hero, comfortable in his knowledge of Eri-chan's safety.

    Then someone collapses the roof of the dorms, and Aizawa-sensei shows them the newly-rewound identity of All For One.

    And he has freckles.

    Summary

    Izuku watches his childhood and current best friend get murdered by the sludge villain while the heroes hold him back.

    They say there was nothing they could have done, they didn’t have “suitable quirks”.

    Izuku’s anger fuels his need to show them that your quirk, or lack there of, shouldn’t stop you from saving a life.

    He loses more and more of himself as he speeds towards the next fight, the next villain. All in the hopes of keeping his dead friends dream alive.

    Will it all come crashing down around him? Will he lose himself completely and become nothing more than a shell of his former self? Or will he find people in this life who are willing to help him back to the surface before he drowns?

    Summary

    Atlas is the greatest thief of all time, not evil enough to be a villain, not good enough to be a hero. Izuku Midoriya knows all too well that he was in danger because of his secret identity. Of course he doesn't make it easy for himself when he somehow lands a job at Endeavours agency filled with heroes that after him and keeping company with his neighbour Toshinori Yagi that has a direct link to All Might. It does not help that he has a supervillain organization out for his blood either.

    or

    Izuku Midoriya just sets himself up for failure on purpose.

    Summary

    Opinion Editorial • Tokyo Times
    Hero Intern Deku: Our Next Savior, or the Catalyst of Hero Society’s Downfall?
    By Yumoto Ryobe
    Like • Comment • Share

    It’s been a month since Hosu City was rocked with attacks from the newest villain group, the League of Villains, and Hero Intern Deku’s (unranked) takedown of the serial killer Stain, his first S ranked villain arrest. Pro Hero media is a mess of differing opinions on Deku, ranging from idolization to condemnation. Fan clubs and hate clubs alike have popped up online. Despite his rousing speech in Hosu and his call to action, Deku has been notably absent from the public eye in any meaningful way.

    With tensions high and no word from the one at the heart of all the chaos, the question must be asked: just what the hell is Hero Intern Deku doing?

    (Honestly? His best.)
