Canon & Timeline Disclaimer
While this story is based on the My Hero Academia universe, it takes creative liberties with the timeline of events, character interactions, and even some canon outcomes.
I’ve tried to stay as faithful to the spirit of the source material as possible, but certain details have been altered or restructured to fit the story’s emotional and thematic arc.
Think of this fanfic as a “canon-adjacent AU” — grounded in the MHA world, but following its own narrative rhythm.
Original Characters Disclaimer
All original characters, storylines, and concepts introduced in this fanfic — including but not limited to Nozumi, her family (Homura, Hikari, Itsuka, Ren, etc.), and other Kitsune elements — are my original creations.
These characters and ideas are part of my intellectual property. Please do not reproduce, repost, or use them in other works without my explicit permission.
Fanfiction is about sharing creativity and love for a story — I’m thrilled to share this world with you, but please respect the effort and originality behind these characters.
Content & Trigger Warning Disclaimer
This story may include themes such as discrimination, fear, emotional trauma, violence, and injury, consistent with the tone of the MHA universe.
Sensitive topics will be handled respectfully, but please read responsibly and check chapter notes for additional warnings when necessary.
Characterization & Interpretation Disclaimer
Character voices, reactions, and relationships are based on my personal interpretation of the source material.
They may differ from canon or from how other writers portray them. This is intentional — it serves the story’s emotional arc and character development.
Cultural Inspiration Note
The Kitsune mythology and elemental traditions in this story draw inspiration from Japanese folklore but are fictionalized for narrative purposes.
This version of Kitsune culture is unique to the story and not meant to represent any real mythology, culture, or belief system.
Reading Order & Tone Note
This fanfic follows a character-driven narrative with a mix of action, introspection, and emotional world-building.
If you enjoy slow-burn character development, complex relationships, and themes of identity and belonging, you’ll feel right at home.
Romance & Character Dynamics Disclaimer
This story features a slow-burn, character-driven romance woven into the main narrative.
While the emotional focus remains on Nozumi’s personal growth, her relationships with several characters play important roles in her journey.
There will be multiple romantic dynamics explored throughout the series — some fleeting, some complex — all contributing to Nozumi’s development and emotional arc.
For transparency:
- The main love interests include Katsuki Bakugo and Keigo Takami (Hawks).
- Hawks appears later in the story timeline (as he does in canon), but he will make earlier cameos and narrative appearances woven in before his major entrance
- Additional subplot: Brief romantic tension with Shoto Todoroki later on the story (not endgame)
Please remember that these relationships are written with respect to all characters’ personalities and emotional growth, and not as competition or fanservice.
