History Fanfic / DekuInClass1B

** The rest of Class 1-B also become much more stronger than they were in canon after going through Izuku's Quirk analysis notes.

** Unlike in canon, Aizawa planned on expelling Izuku on the spot the minute the latter enters his class without even giving the boy a chance to prove he earned his spot in the Hero course, believing that Izuku's lack of control of his Quirk is due to him being arrogant due to having such a powerful Quirk.
** While he was already bad in canon, Bakugo's behavior here is even worse and treated more seriously. He doesn't seem to ''grasp'' that what he's doing is wrong and believes that Izuku and all [[UnSorcerer Quirkless individuals]] [[FantasticAbleism are the scum of the Earth]] and sees nothing wrong with putting the green-haired boy "in his place"(as in tormenting the boy for his own amusement). He even rejoices in the fact of hurting the 1-B students during the Sports Festival just because they are friends with Izuku. His continued shitty behaviour eventually leads to him [[spoiler: be put on probation with the threat of expulsion if he doesn't start improving his behavior]].

** Even Shoto falls into this since he never got his canon pep-talk from Izuku due to losing to Tetsutetsu. As a result, his unhealthy mindset of not using the fire side of his Quirk only causes his behavior to get worse. During the fight against Stain, Shoto provides little to no assistance to Izuku and Kamakiri, using his ice to block and attack them whenever they tried to attack Stain so that they don't get in ''his'' way of beating Stain on his own with just his ice ''just to prove a point'', he was so bad that Izuku and Kamakiri were forced to knock out Shoto so they can fight the Hero Killer without any disturbances. This only causes him to develop a grudge against the two 1-B students, glaring at them whenever he sees them and blaming them for getting "in his way". During the Final Exam, when he was paired with Izuku against All Might, he deliberately blocks the entrance of the exam site so that he can take down All Might on his own just to prove a point to Endeavor that he doesn't need to use his fire to win fights despite knowing that Izuku might fail his grade.
** Kirishima, of all people, also gets this treatment. [[spoiler:Once it becomes clear that Bakugo is put on probation and removed from the Hero course and that Iida and Shoto were injured during the fight against Stain, based on what his [[UnreliableNarrator two classmates]] told him, Kirishima believes that Izuku is a BitchInSheepsClothing trying to remove all of 1-A's best students just to get the spotlight on his class. After he told his theory to his classmates, all the girls think he's crazy while half the boys believe it to be true, so Kirishima remains wary and glares at Izuku whenever he gets the chance.]]

* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Izuku's analysis of Quirks and how they can be improved is so great that when Vlad noticed his notes, he was surprised how it included ways of using his Blood Control Quirk that he never thought about. Even Nezu and the rest of the U.A. faculty was impressed, so much so that they took Izuku's advice on how to use their Quirks to heart during their mock battles against the students during their Final exams. Many students from 1-B and even 1-A come to Izuku for advice on how to further improve themselves.

* BreakThemByTalking: Mandalay pulls this tactic on Kinoko and Tokoyami during their final practical exam by poking at their insecurities. Vlad King was actually against this, stating that it was too much even for a practical exam while Aizawa deems it as necessary as they will be facing these kind of villains in the future once they go pro. Luckily, both Kinoko and Tokoyami were able to power through, find their opponent, and pass their exam.
* ChildhoodFriends: Both Kendo and Monoma knew each other since they were in kindergarten.

** [[spoiler: A combination of Iida and Shoto spreading misinformation and his own personal bias makes Kirishima come up with the theory that Izuku is a BitchInSheepsClothing trying to get his class in the spotlight while removing all of Class 1-A's powerhouses.]]
** Setsuna's mom being a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter, sees Izuku as a troublemaker who is a bloodthirsty BloodKnight who is just looking for trouble seeing after watching the way he [[spoiler: brutalised Bakugo]], as well as his run-in with psychotic villains like Stain and Muscular, and the incident on I-Island. This is without going into depth, knowing the context of his relationship with Bakugo, or that him running into villains where beyond his control.

** [[spoiler:When Katsuki's actions as a bully are revealed, Masaru lets his son know how disappointed he is in his son and calls Katsuki out for not admitting to his faults. He even lets Katsuki know he even blames himself for believing in his son, which shocks Katsuki into silence.]]
** After hearing from the faculty of U.A. regarding his brother's behaviour, Tensei lets Iida know that he wasn't happy, especially how he behaved during his final practical exam, yelling at Reiko for "getting in her way".
* DisproportionateRetribution: When Katsuki learns that his first opponent during the one-on-one matches of the Sports Festival is Setsuna, one of Izuku's closest friends, he immediately smirks at the thought of beating the crap out of her. While Setsuna hides it, she internally notes that Katsuki really wants blow up anyone who even so much as ''smiles'' at Izuku.
* TheDreaded: Gran Torino has become this for the entirety of Class 1-B after their training with him for the Sports Festival. When they learned that he would showing up at the training camp to train them again, they all shivered in fear and even warned Class 1-A of what he is capable of. Aizawa even went as far as to say that Gran Torino makes him look like a saint.

** [[spoiler:Aizawa may be an ApatheticTeacher but even he is disgusted to find out about the extent of [[{{Jerkass}} Bakugo's]] behaviour, especially after hearing about the SuicideDare he gave to Izuku out of ableism for being Quirkless. He was wondering why the faculty were even bothering about coming up with a lighter sentence for the blond bully as he doesn't want to defend a student who has done such deplorable actions.]]

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: [[spoiler: After Bakugo is put on probation and removed from the Hero Course when his past actions back at Aldera came to light, Kirishima is convinced that Bakugo is "not as bad" as Izuku is putting him out to be and comes up with the [[SarcasmMode remarkable theory]] that Izuku is a BitchInSheepsClothing trying to remove all the powerhouses of 1-A from their class after finding out that Tenya and Shoto have been temporarily placed in Gen Ed after their reckless actions against the Hero Killer. This is especially after the fact that he witnessed Bakugo give a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to Setsuna during the Sports Festival, burying her in rubble and decided to paint Izuku as the bad guy after getting some unreliable info without getting any information from Izuku directly.]]
* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: When Bakugo entered U.A., he was fully expecting to be the new top dog of the school, only to be overshadowed by other students in his class, who possessed Quirks that are just as strong or stronger than his own. After his assault on Izuku in the cafeteria, he was sent to Principal Nezu's office where he learns that he won't be receiving any special treatment at the school and that if he freely assaults Izuku or anybody with his Quirk again, he will not only be expelled but will also be sent to Tartarus. This all culminates in him [[spoiler: showing his horrible attitude in the Sports Festival during the one-on-one matches, and has prompted the teachers to look into his previous school and found out how much of an abhorrent and remorseless bully he is, resulting in him being put on probation and sent to an orphanage to look after Quirkless children with the condition that if not one of them says that he has what it takes to be a hero, then he'll be expelled from U.A. permanently.]]

** When Aizawa calls Shoto out on blocking and attacking Izuku and Kamakiri when they were trying to fight Stain, the fire and ice user's defense was that they were getting in his way of taking down the Hero Killer. However, the opposite is true as Shoto blocking the 1-B boys from attacking Stain for the sole purpose of ''proving a point to Endeavor'' shows that ''he'' was the one getting in ''their'' way. It got so bad that they were forced to knock him out so they can focus on Stain without any interferences.

** Iida blames Izuku and Kamakiri for the injuries he received from Stain as they "[[ComplainingAboutRescuesTheyDontLike got in the way of his revenge]]" and holds a grudge on them. This is without even acknowledging the fact that Izuku and Kamakiri saved him from a serial killer who has killed and crippled many Pro Heroes and that his injuries are the result of ''his'' shortsightedness.

* NotSoSimilar: At first glance, Tetsutetsu and Eijiro's Quirks may seem similar, but that's only in terms of function. As Monoma pointed out, Tetsutetsu's Steel Quirk gives him a resistance to various elements, while Eijiro's Hardening does not. This made him a [[ManOfKryptonite perfect counter]] to Todoroki during the Sports Festival, made even easier as Todoroki refused to use his fire.

* PyrrhicVictory: Tetsutetsu feels like his victory against Shoto is due to the latter only fighting with his ice and refused to use his full power. Though Kendo managed to cheer him up about it.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: In stark contrast to Aizawa's SinkOrSwimMentor methods, Vlad King handles his class by gently guiding them but also pushing and encouraging them to be the best that they can be. His teaching methods are a huge reason why Izuku was able to improve very quickly compared to canon as he was able to help and guide Izuku when he needed it most, gave credit where credit was due, and praise his strong points.

* SecretKeeper: [[spoiler: After Izuku and Setsuna get a RelationshipUpgrade, Izuku decides to tell her about the secret of One For All and All For One after a brief conversation with All Might. After the two explain everything to her, Setsuna promises to keep everything a secret as well support Izuku as much as she can.]]

** Due to the sensory nature of their Quirks, Shishida, Jiro, and Shoji were able to overhear the conversation going on between [[spoiler:Izuku and Katsuki during the Sports Festival Finals and found out that the relationship between the two boys is that of a victim and bully. Needless to say, they were pretty disgusted to find out how much of an asshole Bakugo is. After the match, none of them told anyone what they heard out of respect for Izuku. [[LaserGuidedKarma When Bakugo is put on probation for his actions]], Jiro said that [[AssholeVictim he deserved it.]]]]

* StockholmSyndrome: Both Hound Dog and Setsuna deduced that Izuku suffers from a case of Stockholm syndrome due to the way the green-haired boy sees Bakugo as a friend with rough issues despite being a massive BarbaricBully. [[spoiler:He eventually snaps out of it during his match against him in the Sports Festival Finals, where he sees that Bakugo is completely unrepentant and shows no remorse for his past actions, this effectively causes Izuku to stop seeing him as his "image of victory" and instead sees him for what he truly is: an [[JerkAss extremely selfish]] and [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered]] [[TheBully bully]].]]

* WasItAllALie: When Katsuki learns that Aldera Junior High is connected to the [[spoiler: Meta Liberation Army, he is shocked beyond belief and wonders to himself if all the praise he received from his teachers where nothing but lies to make him join their organisation.]]

* WomenAreWiser: [[spoiler:While half the boys believe Kirishima's theory on how Izuku is trying to get rid of all of 1-A's powerhouses by battling Stain just to get his class on the spot light, the girls didn't believe it for a second and looked at the red-haired teen as if he was crazy. Even Mina, Kirishima's close friend, told him that he sounded like a crazy conspiracy theorist.]]

*** At the end of their final exam, Iida angrily accuses Reiko for not staying put like he was and even ''blames her'' for him getting knocked out despite it being [[LeeroyJenkins charge head on strategy]] that caused him to get knocked out by Reverb. Both Reiko and Reverb call him out on this.

* AdaptationalVillainy: While the teachers of Aldera were already worse in canon due to their FantasticAbleism towards Izuku due to his [[UnSorcerer Quirklessness]]. Here, after doing some digging and peeking through their camera footage, Nezu learns that the school has ties to the [[spoiler:Meta Liberation Army and were planning on converting Bakugo into their ranks by inflating his ego and making him adopt their prejudices of the Quirkless.]]

* WeUsedToBeFriends: [[spoiler:After Katsuki mocks his mom and sees how much of a self-centered prick he is, Izuku effectively cuts all ties with him and gives up on trying to reconcile with his bully. This is made clear when Izuku stops calling him "Kacchan" and instead starts calling him "Bakugo".]]

* NotSoSimilar: At first glance, Tetsutetsu and Eijiro's Quirks may seem similar, but that's only in terms of function. As Monoma pointed out, Tetsutetsu's Steel Quirk gives him a resistance to various elements, while Eijiro's Hardening does not. This made him a [[ManOfKryptonite perfect counter]] to Todoroki during the Sports Festival, made even easier as Todoroki refused to use his ice.

* RelationshipUpgrade: By the end of Chapter 61, both Izuku and Setsuna confess their love for one another and become a couple.

* ThatManIsDead: A variation. Iida believing that Tenya is feeling overwhelmed by the pressure of inheriting his hero name decides that the hero, Ingenium, died for good after he got permanently crippled by Stain and told Iida that he's free to be his own hero.

* {{Demonization}}: [[spoiler: A combination of Iida and Shoto spreading misinformation and his own personal bias makes Kirishima come up with the theory that Izuku is a BitchInSheepsClothing trying to get his class in the spotlight while removing all of Class 1-A's powerhouses.]]

** Kirishima, of all people, also gets this treatment. [[spoiler:Once it becomes clear that Bakugo is put on probation and removed from the Hero course and that Iida and Shoto were injured during the fight against Stain, based on what his [[UnreliableNarrator two classmates]] told him, Kirishima believes that Izuku is a BitchInSheepsClothing trying to remove all of 1-A's best students just to get the spotlight on his class.

Many students from 1-B and even 1-A come to Izuku for advice on how to further improve themselves.

* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Momo is this for Monoma, firing a knock out dart at him whenever the Copy user tries to do his crazy talk routine.

* CurbStompBattle: Subverted. During the Sports Festival, many people thought that Shoto would easily take down Tetsutetsu due to how powerful his Quirk, only to be surprised to see Tetsutetsu break through Shoto's ice attacks as his Quirk can handle temperature changes. That said, it wasn't an instant win as Shoto's rapid ice attacks and Tetsutetsu's resilience turned the match into a battle of attrition with Tetsutetsu ultimately winning due to Shoto collapsing from the extreme cold.

* DemotedToExtra: Downplayed. Despite a majority of the fic's focus on Class 1-B, the fic also tends to show what Class 1-A do from time to time.

** [[spoiler: When Katsuki's actions as a bully are revealed, Masaru lets his son know how disappointed he is to his son and calls Katsuki out on not admitting to his faults. He even lets Katsuki know he even blames himself for believing in his son, which shocks Katsuki into silence.]]

* HeelRealization: After the events at I-Island, Tenya has a heart-to-heart conversation with his brother, Tensei. After explaining the errors that Tenya made during the exam, how his brother didn't asked to be avenged, and how he unjustifiable yelled at Reiko, Tenya realizes how much of an asshole he was and wishes to make amends with Izuku and the rest of Class 1-B.

* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: When Bakugo entered U.A., he was fully expecting to be the new top dog of the school, only to be overshadowed by other students in his class, who possessed Quirks that are just as strong or stronger than his own.

* {{Irony}}: Katsuki, who used to bully his former friend, Izuku, for being [[UnSorcerer Quirkless]], [[spoiler: is put on probation and sent to an orphanage to look after Quirkless children with the condition that if at least one of them says that he can be a hero then he'll be allowed to return to the Hero course. After spending so many years tormenting his former Quirkless friend, Katsuki's hero career now rests in the hands of Quirkless children.]]
* TheLoad: Rikido Sato of 1-A was this to Yui during their team-up at the Final Exams, due to Kirishima and Kaminari [[spoiler: spreading the rumor that Izuku and his Class are planning on removing the powerhouses of Class 1-A just to get their class on the spotlight]] causes him to hesitate a lot during their exam against Gran Torino. During the whole fight, Yui was the only one who was putting in the effort while Sato kept second-guessing himself, which resulted in a failed grade for the both of them. Needless to say, Yui was [[{{Understatement}} not happy]] that all her efforts went down the drain because of some [[spoiler: rumor]] and [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech she made Sato know it]].

** After being threatened with expulsion or worse from Nezu for assaulting Izuku in the cafeteria, Bakugo ''immediately'' [[BlamingTheVictim blames Izuku for it, thinking that it was ''his'' fault]].
*** When he was called out on pulling a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on Setsuna during their match at the Sports Festival and learns that he may be in danger with her parents, who are highly-professional lawyers. Bakugo ''once again'' internally blames Izuku for everything. Even though the green-haired boy had absolutely nothing to do with it.
*** [[spoiler: During their match in the Sports Festival Finals, Izuku hits his RageBreakingPoint and has had it with Bakugo's [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered and selfish attitude]]. Bakugo, for a lack of a better word, doesn't accept any of it and tells Izuku to not blame him for his problems, even though he played a '''huge''' part in Izuku's problems, he even said that Izuku ''deserved'' all the horrible things he did to him]].
*** [[spoiler: Even after his past behaviour and actions were exposed and he's put on probation, he ''still'' blames Izuku for everything, yelling that had he kept his mouth shut none of this would have happened. It had to take Masaru to yell at Katsuki that nothing was Izuku's fault and that he only has himself to blame. He even warns Katsuki to not call Izuku, "Deku", or he'll pull him out of U.A. entirely. ]]

** [[spoiler: Once Katsuki finally made Izuku hit his RageBreakingPoint during their final match in the Sports Festival, Izuku becomes ''livid'', and effectively cuts all ties with the explosive teen, made evident by how he stops calling him "Kacchan" and starts calling him "Bakugo", something that causes Katsuki to visibly flinch.]]
** [[spoiler: Once the truth of their son's behavior is revealed to them, both Mitsuki and Masaru change considerably. Mitsuki has gone from being loud and bombastic to being quiet with a haunted look on her face and Masaru goes from an ExtremeDoormat to an angry parent to show how [[DisappointedInYou disappointed]] he is with his son's behavior. Katsuki is quite shaken by this development.]]

** [[spoiler: Bakugo is put on probation and removed from the Hero course for his actions during the Sports Festival and after the teachers found out about his behavior back in Aldera.]]

* PyrrhicVictory: Tetsutetsu feels like his victory against Shoto to be this due to the latter only fighting with his ice and refused to use his full power. Though Kendo managed to cheer him up about it.
* RageBreakingPoint: [[spoiler: After Bakugo mockingly mentions how he felt sorry for Inko having to deal with a Quirkless son who "tricked Bakugo and everyone out of pretending to not have a Quirk", Izuku ''snapped'' and had enough of Bakugo's bullshit. The green haired boy then proceeded to unleash a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown onto Bakugo while angrily calling him out for his [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered attitude]] and the torment he had put him through despite only showing him kindness.]]

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: In stark contrast to Aizawa's SinkOrSwimMentor methods, Vlad King handles his class by gently guiding them but also pushing and encouraging them to be the best that they can be. His teaching methods are a huge reason why Izuku was able to improve very quickly compared to canon as he was able to help and guide Izuku when he needed it most, gave credit where credit is due, and praise his strong points.

** Setsuna uses her Quirk on Izuku and Shoto when the latter wishes to speak in privately with the former, which lead to her learning about Shoto's DarkAndTroubledPast.
** Due to the sensory nature of their Quirks, Shishida, Jiro, and Shoji were able to overhear the conversation going on between [[spoiler: Izuku and Katsuki during the Sports Festival Finals and found out that the relationship between the two boys is that of a victim and bully. Needless to say, they were pretty disgusted to find out how much of an asshole Bakugo is. After the match, none of them told anyone what they heard out of respect to Izuku. [[LaserGuidedKarma When Bakugo is put on probation for his actions]], Jiro said that [[AssholeVictim he deserved it.]]]]
* SelectiveObliviousness: According to Momo, Kirishima is hit hard when Bakugo was [[spoiler: put on probation and his past actions come to light]], and deep down is aware that he isn't a good person. However, he refuses to accept that as that would be admitting he befriended a bully, so without even getting the full story, he blames Izuku when more of his classmates get in trouble.

* StockholmSyndrome: Both Hound Dog and Setsuna deduced that Izuku suffers from a case of Stockholm syndrome due to the way the green-haired boy sees Bakugo as a friend with rough issues despite being a massive BarbaricBully.

This is made clear when Izuku stops calling him "Kacchan" and instead starts calling him "Bakugo".]]
