History Fanfic / Dekugate

* [[KickTheSonOfABitch Kick the Bitch]]: Toshinori gives a well-deserved chastising to [[spoiler:Nitta Mari after he catches her spying on his family again while bringing up all the ludicrous and despicable acts she and her friends have done in the name of Dekugate]].

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/39303069/chapters/98352987 Dekugate]]'' is a ''{{Manga/My Hero Academia}}'' FanFic by [[{{Creator/Aconstantstateofbladerunner}} aconstantstateofbladerunner]]. Izuku, his parents, and his class decide to continue their stay on the Nabu Island community to help restore things after [[Anime/MyHeroAcademiaHeroesRising Nine's destructive presence]]. But everything takes a turn for the worse when the Little Prince discovers an unconventional antagonist who proves to be more dangerous than Nine himself.

* BittersweetEnding: The story ends on a happy note with only a dash of bitterness. [[spoiler:Dekugate still exists and its followers will continue to harass the Mighty Family for a long as the sun is shining. Despite their existence, Izuku has decided not to let their influence tarnish his road to heroism as he can instead focus on the more positive aspects of his life. Such as his loving parents to his reliable friends. Also, Toshinori and Inko manage to record Nitta Mari for illegally recording minors along with her online crimes so she may be doing some jail time for her antics]].

* DemotedToExtra: Despite playing a prominent role in stopping Nine, Bakugou has little to no relevance in the story[=/=]restoration process as he keeps to himself to recover at the agency.

* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: When [[spoiler:Toshinori]] casually identifies Nitta's online handle, she gleefully gasps that "You've read my blog!" He then bluntly reminds her that she [[spoiler:prayed for his wife and son to die]] on that blog.

** The Dekugate community might be a really toxic segment of the Internet, but not everyone is on the same page regarding what behavior is "acceptable" in pursuing their theories. [[spoiler: When Omori Aimi, aka "@redroverrover," actually posts online to [[NeverMyFault complain]] how "Deku" had ruined her chance to [[LoonyFan spend a few hours stalking All Might]] and [[EntitledBitch playing with him disguised as a dog]], she receives ''massive'' backlash from her peers that sends [[FairWeatherFriend her former friends]] scrambling to delete any evidence that they had ever supported her]].

** As much as Izuku would love to lash out and potentially hurt Dekugaters, he admits to feeling uncomfortable when [[spoiler:his father utterly destroys Nitta Mari to the point that she's breaking down in tears. His parents would later commend him for being better then the two]].

* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: One of the first posts on Dekugate criticizes how All Might explained to her daughter in real life about how he and Inko got together and fell in love, describing the setup and dynamics like something out of worldbuilding for fanfiction.

* LoveAtFirstSight: All Might admits to have fallen head over heels when meeting Parakeet for the first time. Inko, on the other hand, brushed him off as a showboating chump and needed more time to truly love him.

* {{Manchild}}: In all honesty, [[spoiler:[[LoonyFan Nitta Mari]] is so petulant and illogical that you have to feel sorry for the way she embarrasses her actual child when they're out in public. At one point she confronted [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence Izuku]] by saying "You never answered my question" in the middle of a soup line- when ''she had never had the chance to ask said question'', due to an emergency evacuation. After she finished harassing her [[WouldHurtAChild fifteen-year-old]] nemesis, she immediately went online to complain about him. And all the while, she publicly "worries about the future", if a couple of "brats who have no idea what harassment is" are the heroes they have to look forward to!]]

** Since All Might and Parakeet kept their social media posts on Izuku to [[DotingParent gushing about what a good boy he was]], the whole situation is officially "too good to be true." From the very start, children are loud, messy, and aggravating, so if they really had a son, they'd have some choice remarks to make (and no, it's not possible that they might have occasionally been annoyed at Izuku and simply chose to keep those moments off the Internet.) On the other hand, any moment that could conceivably imply that All Might is unhappy with his wife or child is taken dead seriously as the Dekugaters mourn the [[DomesticAbuse pain]] he's no doubt going through.

** Zigzagged with Izuku's lineage. The public knew about All Might getting together with Parakeet and bearing a child, but it wasn't made clear as to who the child was until Izuku entered Yuuei. Some of the 1-A kids had no idea until sometime during their first year but others (like Shouto or Tenya) knew to some degree.

* TheyJustDontGetIt: Dekugate has existed for 18 years and remain insistent that All Might's relationship with Parakeet is staged by his higher-ups. [[spoiler:Even after Toshinori makes a public post chastising Dekugate for harassing his family while proclaiming his love for his wife and son, the fanatics continue their work believing that he's being forced to say those horrible things just like in the past]].

* YokoOhNo: The main reason why the Dekugate fanbase abhors Parakeet is because she got together with All Might, indirectly sinking their beloved ships like [=MightyShield=]. Their hatred of her prompts them to not only spew venomous insults and threats at her and her son, but also craft a conspiracy theory about the HPSC forcing All Might to make a fake family with her and keep him away from his so-called "true love" David Shield.

** The effects aren’t actually that different, but at the very least the Dekugaters’ [[IRejectYourReality disconnect from reality]] means that they generally don’t literally want Izuku to ‘’die’’ to end Dekugate. Since they regard all his battles as publicity stunts, “dying” would simply mean that the actor playing Izuku would move on to other projects- just like “Mary Shield” moved to Arizona after she “died of cancer.” [[DeconstructedTrope However]], this doesn’t apply to Inko, who was clearly a Pro Hero before even “meeting” All Might- the community really does anticipate the possibility of her dying. And as Inko explains, the concept of “forcing the end” means that fanatics like this community will only wait for the “fated” end of Dekugate for so long before attempting to [[SelfFulfillingProphecy bring it about themselves]], so Izuku wouldn’t necessarily be safe.

** The Dekugate community might be a really toxic segment of the Internet, but not everyone is on the same page regarding what behavior is “acceptable” in pursuing their theories. [[spoiler:When Omori Aimi, aka “@redroverrover,” actually posts online to [[NeverMyFault complain]] how “Deku” had ruined her chance to [[LoonyFan spend a few hours stalking All Might]] and [[EntitledBitch playing with him disguised as a dog]], she receives ‘’massive’’ backlash from her peers that sends [[FairWeatherFriend her former friends]] scrambling to delete any evidence that they had ever supported her]].

* FemaleMisogynist: Dekugaters, comprised mainly of women, hold a strong hatred for Inko, believing that she's setting back feminism because of her shameful performance as a Pro Hero mixed with her hooking up with their cherished Number One Hero. They also post many unflattering comments about the 1-A girls.

* ImproperlyParanoid: The Dekugate community believes that they are bravely defying a shadowy conspiracy to tell their “truths,” so suspicion towards outsiders is the norm. This reached its peak after Sir Nighteye was killed, as

* DieForOurShip: The more rabid MightyShield (and NightMight and EndMight) shippers hate Inko for being an obstacle to their favourite ship and openly pray for her death. There are also numerous death threats and at least one actual attempt on her life.

* DramaticIrony: Izuku constantly frets that Nine is still out there and will strike again, yet he's unaware that the weather-manipulating villain was already taken care of by [[BadGuysDoTheDirtyWork Shigaraki]].

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/39303069/chapters/98352987 Dekugate]]'' is a ''{{Manga/My Hero Academia}}'' FanFic by [[{{Creator/Aconstantstateofbladerunner}} aconstantstateofbladerunner]]. Izuku, his parents and his class decide to continue their stay on the Nabu Island community to help restore things after [[Anime/MyHeroAcademiaHeroesRising Nine's destructive presence]]. But everything takes a turn for the worse when the Little Prince discovers an unconventional antagonist who proves to be more dangerous then Nine himself.

* AmbiguousSituation: A heart-wrenching example. Izuku is a fifteen year old boy who has just discovered that there is an entire Internet community [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence dedicated to hating him]], and it’s obvious that [[HeroicBSOD he isn’t equipped to handle it yet]]. Over the course of the story, he tends to vacillate between understanding that the Dekugaters are a vocal minority of [[LoonyFan crazy people]] that [[BiasSteamroller could never be talked out]] of [[IrrationalHatred their views]], knowing this but still wanting to be “perfect” so he can protect his loved ones from [[GuiltComplex suffering at their hands]], or believing that the Dekugaters [[VillainHasAPoint actually have some valid criticisms to make]]. This can make it hard to get a precise reading of Izuku’s mindset at a given moment; when his thoughts call him a SpoiledBrat who only got where he is [[{{Nepotism}} because of his father]], is he merely “workshopping” the way the Dekugaters [[TheoryTunnelVision will spin certain events]], and feeling crushed by their baseless hatred? Or has his self esteem been damaged enough from the online assault that he actually believes that about himself?

* BaitAndSwitch: In Chapter 3, Izuku wakes up in the middle of the night hearing noises and is worried that someone is breaking in their agency to attack them. When he goes to stop the perpetrator, [[spoiler:it turns out to be Jiro who came down to investigate some noises herself]].

* BeachEpisode: The last chapter has Izuku and his friends and classmates enjoying a well deserved break at a local beach while his parents supervise them.

* BittersweetEnding: The story ends on a happy note with only a dash of bitterness. [[spoiler:Dekugate still exists and it's followers will continue to harass the Mighty Family for a long as the sun is shining. Despite their existence, Izuku has decided not to let their influence tarnish his road to heroism as he can instead focus on the more positive aspects of his life. Such as his loving parents to his reliable friends. Also, Toshinori and Inko manage to record Nitta Mari for illegally recording minors along with her online crimes so she may be doing some jailtime for her antics]].

* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: Subverted by force. Inko mentions that she grew up in foster care. But through the power of Dekugate, [[spoiler:they found her true father who's revealed to be a deadbeat, smalltime, gangster-wannabe doing time in Thailand just to slander her]].

* EasilyCondemned: The Dekugaters might be singleminded in their efforts to tear down [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence Izuku]] and Inko, but they’re just as willing to place people on pedestals. Since they [[TheoryTunnelVision assume]] that it’s an OpenSecret among heroes that “Deku” is an actor who’s being [[EngineeredHeroics molded into a figurehead for the Commission]], they’re quick to assume that anyone who fought Izuku in the Sports Festival or joked about him being a “big target” in the License exam is an “ally” who hates the situation as much as they do. The trouble is, these “fans” are just as quick to condemn these “allies” for [[CategoryTraitor “selling out”]] the instant they say anything positive, or even neutral, about Izuku.

** The Dekugate community might be a really toxic segment of the Internet, but not everyone is on the same page for what behavior is “acceptable” in pursuing their theories. [[spoiler:When Omori Aimi, aka “@redroverrover,” actually posts online to [[NeverMyFault complain]] how “Deku” had ruined her chance to [[LoonyFan spend a few hours stalking All Might]] and [[EntitledBitch playing with him disguised as a dog]], she receives ‘’massive’’ backlash from her peers that sends [[FairWeatherFriend her former friends]] scrambling to delete any evidence that they had ever supported her]].

* FemaleMisogynist: Dekugaters, comprised mainly of women, hold a strong hatred for Inko, believing that she's setting back feminism because of her shameful performance as a Pro Hero mixed with her hooking up with their cherished Number One Hero. They also post many unflattering comments of the 1-A girls.

** When Izuku browses through the comments of an All Might x Parakeet fanvideo, he finds one comment which bitterly remarks "imagine unironically supporting this propaganda". In Chapter 5, [[spoiler:a recurring conspiracy post in Dekugate is that the Hero Commission ''forced'' All Might to marry Parakeet and have a child in order to push the idea that the Number One Hero is "heteronormative"]].

* HappilyMarried: Toshinori and Inko prove to be this. They're openly affectionate, trade jokes and light-hearted bickering with one another and are very blessed to have the other in their lives.

* HostileWeather: In Chapter 8, a sudden typhoon forces everyone to take shelter and prepare for the worse. [[spoiler:But after worrying that his mom is still out on patrol along with the fear of the Dekugaters getting to witness the death of "Inkstain", Izuku escapes the shelter and feels the unyielding wrath of mother nature]].
* HumbleHero: Parakeet isn't as powerful or well-recognized to be on Top Hero Rankings like her husband and she rarely works in other areas unless necessary. But the Green Avian Hero doesn't mind as she's more interested in using her abilities to support her small community which was in desperate need of a hero.

* [[KickTheSonOfABitch Kick the Bitch]]: Toshinori gives a well deserved chastising to [[spoiler:Nitta Mari after he catches her spying on his family again while bringing up all the ludicrous and despicable acts she and her friends have done in the name of Dekugate]].

** Apparently the whole reason why it's called Dekugate to begin with is because [[spoiler:the fans who learned of Izuku's pregnancy when his name was released misread it as "Deku", just like Bakugou]].

*** Going even farther than that, if All Might ''mentions'' his son on social media, the Dekugaters resent the obvious effort to [[EngineeredHeroics raise Izuku's stock]] among the public. Focus on other things instead, and the fanbase will once again point out [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness how out of character it would be]] for All Might to ignore his own son.
** If Izuku doesn't maintain a stellar record against villains, the Dekugaters would scoff at how they're supposed to believe that such a weakling is the son of [[WorldsStrongestMan All Might]]. But when he triumphs against [[TheDreaded high level villains]], they point out how [[ContrivedCoincidence ridiculous]] it would be to have one teenager run into such dangerous threats, and lambast the Hero Commission for putting people in danger just to [[EngineeredHeroics set up their new "golden boy"]].

** When Izuku interacts with fans, there's just no way to win where the Dekugaters are concerned. If he [[NoSocialSkills fumbles in any way]] due to having less than a year’s experience in public speaking, then [[InsaneTrollLogic what more proof do they need]] that he can’t be the son of [[TheCape All Might]]? Show [[OcularGushers any sign]] that he’s an overwhelmed teenager? That triggers a ''field day'' of people [[KickTheDog comparing him to a sulky toddler]]. If he manages to get his act together enough to honestly say that [[HumbleHero he has a lot to learn, but is doing his best]], with [[ThePowerOfFriendship the help of his friends and rivals]], the Dekugaters just sneer at how transparent [[BitchInSheepsClothing his act]] is, to the point of teaching others how to “see through” him. If he [[OutOfCharacterMoment somehow]] became self-assured, eloquent, and socially adept overnight, ''that'' would just trigger another round of outcry over [[AttentionWhore how much he loves the spotlight he’s leeching from All Might]]!

* MovingTheGoalposts: Basically the crux of the "Dekugate" theory is that the [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain hidebound]] [[OmniscientCouncilOfVagueness Hero Commission]] has spent years separating [[StarCrossedLovers All Might and David Shield]], since it would be unprofitable to have [[LovedByAll the Number One Hero]] be anything but heterosexual. The thing is, both David and All Might are already openly bi- it apparently [[NoBisexuals just doesn't count]] unless they're currently in a relationship with a man!

* PapaWolf: After being informed about [[spoiler:Nitta Mari being a Dekugater who harassed his son]], Toshinori becomes alot more proactive in ensuring that [[spoiler:the dumb bitch and her cronies don't try to harass his family again]]. This is best shown in the last chapter where [[spoiler:he gives Nitta a well-deserved TheReasonYouSuckSpeech after catching her trying to illegally film his son]].

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Toshinori gives two of these in Chapter 11. The first is to [[spoiler:Dekugate via public post where he spells out how all of their conspiracies are full of baloney and that he hates them all for the horror they inflicted onto his wife and child out of pettiness]]. The second is to [[spoiler:Nitta Mari for openly hoping for Inko's death and her compliance with the other acts of depravity she was involved in. He also points out that she's setting a terrible example for her own children]].

** Certain segments of the Dekugate community are absolutely unconcerned with the "narrative", because they're convinced that ''they're'' All Might's largest source of income, and if the Hero Commission ever actually pushed them away, they'd lose their jobs shortly afterwards.
* SpoiledSweet: Gender-inverted with Izuku. His parents are professional heroes, with his father being the Fairest in the Land, and is treated with never-ending adoration from the two of them. And yet, Izuku's heart remained humbled and he constantly thinks to himself of how lucky he is to have two of the greatest parents in the world.
* SurprisePregnancy: Izuku was conceived much sooner then what Toshinori and Inko were expecting.

** The story is a hardcore critique at fans who engage in RealLife shipping and bully others for not agreeing with their over-the-top or even ludicrous beliefs.
** Chapter 7 has Izuku discovering [[spoiler:[[FoeRomanceSubtext Bakudeku]] and is slightly disturbed with how the fans portray him as a [[{{Uke}} fragile, effeminate wimp]] who needs to be dominated by his [[{{Seme}} aggressive rival]]. That and the fancontent which features the boys in ''very'' [[{{Ephebophile}} intimate situations]]]].

* TearsOfJoy: In Chapter 10, [[spoiler:Izuku cries this after his father cracks a joke on the livestream about a stupid conspiracy about Izuku not being his real son. Toshi, Inko and the Yuuei kids laugh it up leading to the little prince to laugh at how absurd the whole thing was]].
* ThereAreNoTherapists: Subverted. [[spoiler:Inko considers assisting Izuku look for a therapist to help him with his feelings over Dekugate. And it's suggested that she herself has her own therapist given the hate she's been forced to live through for 18 years]].
* TheyJustDontGetIt: Dekugate has existed for 18 years and remain insistent that All Might's relationship with Parakeet is staged by his higher ups. [[spoiler:Even after Toshinori makes a public post chastising Dekugate for harassing his family while proclaiming his love for his wife and son, the fanatics continue their work believing that he's being forced to say those horrible things just like in the past]].

* LackOfEmpathy: One of the most appalling things about the various fandoms shown in-story is that since they [[IRejectYourReality refuse to acknowledge]] that the situations reported by the media are real and not a "narrative" constructed by the [[OmniscientCouncilOfVagueness Hero Commission]], they have no problem dismissing, or even rooting for, major personal tragedies that befall their idols. One fan actually became offended by people calling them out for [[SpeakIllOfTheDead insulting Mary Shield, who had died of cancer years before]], since it's been "proven" that Mary's actress simply went to Arizona when her contract was up. Omori Aimi actually [[spoiler:outlined an "ideal solution" for Dekugate that involved [[DeathOfAChild Izuku "dying" against Nine]], All Might and Inko "splitting up" out of grief, and Yagi finally getting together with [[StarCrossedLovers David]] after "realizing things about himself" in the wake of his loss]]. She simply assumes that the public would just move on from "Deku", and All Might would be able to finally reveal how ridiculous the whole act was several years down the line!

** If Izuku emerges from a tense battle [[AngstWhatAngst acting just as usual]] while around the cameras, the Dekugate community pounces on that as "proof" that the whole thing was staged, and he was never in any danger. React with [[HeroicBSOD understandable nervousness]], however, and the community calls him too [[SketchySuccessor spoiled and fragile]] to ever succeed All Might- or else too lazy to be a pro hero, since [[TheoryTunnelVision a simple video shoot was enough to exhaust him]].

** On a much darker note, the Dekugate community ''assumes'' that the entire conspiracy must be common knowledge among everyone involved in the hero industry. As Izuku notes despairingly, the theorists [[TheoryTunnelVision use any "evidence" they can find]] to label the hero students who interact with him as [[MortonsFork either]] leeches who [[AttentionWhore care more about fame than in exposing the truth]], ''idiots'' who [[GoodIsDumb simply can't pick up the obvious]], or "true heroes" who are [[ThisIsUnforgivable every bit as furious at the situation]] as the Dekugate fans are.

* HappilyEverAfter: In Chapter 2, Toshinori uses this phrase to wrap up the tale of how a Mighty Hero and Princess Parakeet fell in love and had a beautiful baby boy. But as we all know, [[AndTheAdventureContinues the end is just the beginning]].

* BittersweetEnding: The story ends on a happy note with only a dash of bitterness. [[spoiler:Dekugate still exists and it's followers will continue to harass the Mighty Family for a long as the sun is shining. Despite this, Izuku has decided not to let their influence tarnish his life as he can instead focus on the positive aspects of his life. Such as his loving parents to his reliable friends. Also, Toshinori and Inko manage to record Nitta Mari for illegally recording minors along with her online crimes so she may be doing some jailtime for her antics]].

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Nitta Mari casually stalked Izuku and filmed him without permission, sneering about how he couldn't do anything about it. Her HumiliationConga is CaughtOnTape, doubling as an AccidentalPublicConfession of her crimes.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: Subverted. [[spoiler:Inko considers helping Izuku look for a therapist to help him with his feelings over Dekugate. And it's suggested that she herself has her own therapist given the hate she's been forced to live through for 18 years]].

* EveryoneHasStandards: The Dekugate community might be a really toxic segment of the Internet, but not everyone is on the same page for what behavior is “acceptable” in pursuing their theories. [[spoiler:When Omori Aimi, aka “@redroverrover,” actually posts online to [[NeverMyFault complain]] how “Deku” had ruined her chance to [[LoonyFan spend a few hours stalking All Might]] and [[EntitledBitch playing with him disguised as a dog]], she receives ‘’massive’’ backlash from her peers that sends [[FairWeatherFriend her former friends]] scrambling to delete any evidence that they had ever supported her]].

** When Izuku interacts with fans, there’s just no way to win where the Dekugaters are concerned. If he [[NoSocialSkills fumbles in any way]] due to having less than a year’s experience in public speaking, then [[InsaneTrollLogic what more proof do they need]] that he can’t be the son of [[TheCape All Might]]? Show [[OcularGushers any sign]] that he’s an overwhelmed teenager? That triggers a ‘’field day’’ of people [[KickTheDog comparing him to a sulky toddler]]. If he manages to get his act together enough to honestly say that [[HumbleHero he has a lot to learn, but is doing his best]], with [[ThePowerOfFriendship the help of his friends and rivals]], the Dekugaters just sneer at how transparent [[BitchInSheepsClothing his act]] is, to the point of teaching others how to “see through” him. If he [[OutOfCharacterMoment somehow]] became self-assured, eloquent, and socially adept overnight, ‘’that’’ would just trigger another round of outcry over [[AttentionWhore how much he loves the spotlight he’s leeching from All Might]]!

* LovingAShadow: As the story demonstrates in detail, this is one of the perils of fame. All Might may have close to a OneHundredPercentAdorationRating, but not every fan is going to take his actual emotions into account. For instance, one fan complains about All Might's post-Kamino haircut "triggering their depression" without considering the emotional fallout their "idol" was dealing with at the time. More seriously, the Dekugate community [[IRejectYourReality adamantly refuses]] to see him as anything but TheWoobie InUniverse. They have built an entire narrative around him being [[StarCrossedLovers tragically separated from his true love, David Shield]], and feel justified in spewing hatred towards [[HappilyMarried his real-life wife]] for standing in the way of their fantasies.

* MovingTheGoalposts: Basically the crux of the "Dekugate" theory is that the [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain hidebound]] [[OmniscientCouncilOfVagueness Hero Commission]] has spent years separating [[StarCrossedLovers All Might and David Shield]], since it would be unprofitable to have [[OneHundredPercentAdorationRating the Number One Hero]] be anything but heterosexual. The thing is, both David and All Might are already openly bi- it apparently [[NoBisexuals just doesn’t count]] unless they’re currently in a relationship with a man!

* HatedByAll: Deconstructed with Inko. As she explains in Chapter 10, [[spoiler:she grew up with 18 years worth of criticisms and unreasonable hatred from strangers who loathed her just because she was involved with their favorite hero. This has led to the poor princess developing paranoia over her actions along with an eating disorder as many of them took shots at her physical appearance. This was what led to Izuku being born premature and having to stay in a hospital during the first days of his life]].

* HonoraryUncle: Izuku considered David Shield to be this, especially since the king would care and watch over Izuku throughout his childhood.

* HomeschooledKids: Izuku was home-schooled until he was ready for middle school due to his parents' fears of being [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal picked out by potentially perilous pariahs or pestering paparazzi]].

* HistoryRepeats: To Inko's horror, [[spoiler:she had to witness the two most important people in her life be stuck in hospital rooms with the possibility that they couldn't make it. The first was when Izuku was born premature, and the second was after her husband's fight against All For One]].
