History Fanfic / IDontWantToGetHurtSoIllBecomeTheUltimateDefensiveHero

*** A lot of Quirks Kaede has gotten offscreen, in general, tend to be references to other media. As of the current chapter, her inventory includes references to ''Manga/MedakaBox'', ''Film/SuicideSquad'', ''Manga/ChainsawMan'', ''Manga/NayutaOfTheProphecy'', ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', ''Manga/{{Shy}}'', and ''Anime/ReCreators''.

''[[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/i-dont-want-to-get-hurt-so-ill-become-the-ultimate-defensive-hero-mha-x-bofuri.831269/ I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Become the Ultimate Defensive Hero]]'' is a crossover fanfiction, between ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' and ''LightNovel/BofuriIDontWantToGetHurtSoIllMaxOutMyDefense''. It is written by Creator/{{FoxOnPie}} who also wrote ''Fanfic/NeitherABirdNorAPlaneItsDeku''.

** Kaede's aversion to pain is also exaggerated to the point of AmbiguousDisorder.

->"I don't think this is how Quirks are supposed to work, but this is Maple, who can break the rules completely by accident, so I'll let it slide."

->"[[ArtisticLicense I don't think this is how Quirks are supposed to work]], but this is [[BadassAdorable Maple]], [[ComicallyInvincibleHero who can break the rules]] [[AchievementsInIgnorance completely by accident]], [[JustifiedTrope so I'll let it slide]]."

* AmbiguousDisorder: Kaede has an extreme revulsion to the idea of pain to the point that she claims to have [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatophobia traumatophobia]]. While the story always makes a point of how she was never officially diagnosed with anything, the way she reacts to the mere idea of pain is still abnormal.

* BrokenAce: Kasumi shows some signs of this in her introduction, as her obsession with being the best at everything comes from a fear of being shunned by her family for not being perfect at something. She gets better about it after befriending Kaede, though.

* CharacterExaggeration: Mii's charismatic personality is exaggerated to make her into a full-blown {{Chuunibyou}}.

* HiddenDepths: The swords Kasumi creates with her Quirk glow purple if she has an attachment to them, and except for Yukari, all the swords that glow purple are replicas of historical and mythological weapons, implying Kasumi to be something of a history buff.

* {{Crossover}}: In addition to the main crossover, the story is also a minor one to ''Manga/HeroSanAndFormerGeneralSan'', with Hayate and Honey being reworked into Kaede's cousins.

The world has seen a great many powerful Heroes: All Might, Endeavor, Best Jeanist, Mirko, the list goes on. However, none have ever been-or ever would be-more or a monster than the deadliest Hero ever to be born: a cute little girl named Maple.

* RealityEnsues: Without a provisional license, Kaede is technically breaking the law whenever she sets up her business for getting more Quirks and has to stop whenever a police officer tells her to, but she's only ever given a small warning about it.

* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Syrup and Oboro are not artificial creatures from a video game and are full-blooded animals that have quirks.

* GoodCounterpart: Kaede is one to [[BigBad All for One]], as she's has a Quirk that lets her use multiple Quirks and is regarded as one of the strongest people around.
