Summary
"If you were to ask a thirteen-year-old Izuku whether he thought he’d be able to survive on the streets for months with nothing but his brain and the few thousand yen he managed to scrape up before running away, you’d probably get a resounding no. (In all honestly, you’d actually get an ‘uh-I mean, hypothetically, possibly? But realistically, taking external factors in to consideration, I’d probably not survive very long. I mean, I’m…’ which would almost certainly devolve into a mumbling session that’d last at least fifteen minutes, but potato-potahto.)
But here he is; fifteen years old, homeless and positively thriving – and by thriving, he means surviving without having been fatally stabbed or shot or, well, you get the point.
He’s still alive.
Therefore, the first point definitely applies. And considering this is the third time he’s been cornered by a vengeful person with a knife due to his hero complex this week? The second point is unquestionably applicable too.Midoriya Izuku is human – stronger than most would think, dumber than his IQ would suggest."
Or, Izuku has long since realised he's incapable of saving anyone, even himself. A bunch of pro-heroes don't agree with that conclusion.
