* AdaptationalVillainy: Bakugo is a big {{Jerkass}} at the beginning of canon, but somewhat mellowed out - particularly as he got hit by several events that showed him he was no longer at the top. Here, he never goes through those events, and becomes unhinged enough [[spoiler:that he deliberately fires a lethal attack through Izuku just to hit All Might during the end-of-term examination -- all so he can claim victory for himself]].

* AdaptationalBadass: Thanks to Izuku's analysis, Ochako realizes that her Quirk isn't just negating gravity, but being able to modify an object's inertia, and that the nausea she suffers from negating gravity is because she diffuses the energy through her own body. With training, she ends up being able to affect bigger objects, increase an object's weight, grant herself pseudo-SuperStrength (by putting more force into her punches) and even fly.

* BatmanGambit: Izuku's plan for the Heroes vs Villains fight partially hinges in knowing just how [[UnwittingPawn Bakugo]] will react to the situation. Tenya later thinks that Izuku is conducting Bakugo like a symphony orchestra playing the 1812 Overture.

* ChekhovsGunman: One of Izuku's bullies turns out to [[spoiler:work at the laundromat where Ochako washes her clothes, and his reveal of what he, Bakugo and the others at Aldera did to Izuku ensures Ochako's earlier dislike for Bakugo grows into hatred]].

** Ochako ends up renting the same apartment where Aizawa lived in when he was an U.A. student.
** After finding a box that belonged to Aizawa, the discovery and the scare from the situation ends up shaking Ochako so much All Might suggests her to spend the weekend at Izuku's house - and that same weekend her apartment is destroyed in a fight between Mt. Lady and a giant villain.

*** When, during a no-Quirk spar, Izuku struck him in exactly the right nerve cluster to make him open his hand and release an explosion, Bakugo explained what happened... and admitted it could only have been an accident because, as he himself points out, there was no way Izuku could have known beforehand, since he too had only found after Izuku moved to Tokyo.
*** During his tournament match with Ochako, Bakugo opened with what everyone assumed was lethal force. [[spoiler:It later turns out that it was his AP Shot, used in such a way that it would have simply thrown Ochako out of the ring almost unharmed had she not been able to fly. And during the rest of the fight Bakugo took ''extreme'' care to not use any sort of excessive force even by accident in spite of being on the receiving end of a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown]].

* {{Foil}}: Endeavour and Bakugo: they both have highly destructive Quirks, enormous pride and terrible tempers and feel a one-sided rivalry toward an One for All bearer, but Endeavour knows when to put his pride and temper aside and is an excellent Hero while Bakugo lets his rule him to the point he [[spoiler:tries to ''murder Izuku'' to try and pass the end of term exam]]. Also, [[spoiler:All for One is messing with both of them through powerful gifted Quirks in different ways: with Endeavour he created Half Hot-Half Cold and put it into his son but hasn't apparently manipulated him, while with Bakugo he gave him a copy of his Quirk and made sure it came attached with a vestige that is directly responsible for increasing his hatred of Izuku and pushed him in the attempted murder]].

** Instead of All Might's unwillingness to retire, the cause of the break between All Might and Sir Nighteye is because the former picked Izuku as his successor.

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Bakugo may have suffered a traumatic experience [[spoiler:when Toga assaults him]], but, as pointed by pretty much everyone else, that doesn't give him leave to act out or attack Izuku just because he believes he had something to do with the attack.

* HeroicSacrifice: Hisashi Midoriya used his fire breathing Quirk to save Izuku from All for One, but cooked his own chest from the inside through overuse and died as a result. All Might has him posthumously declared a Pro Hero to honor him and ensure Inko receives a pension.
* HiddenDepths: Bakugo reveals in Chapter 60 that he's studied the effects of explosions extensively, especially in relation to his own Quirk, to the point where he believes he can match Power Loader in knowledge of safely handing explosives. Therefore, despite looking like he's just setting of blasts with no regard for his surroundings, his explosions are actually calculated to take down his opponents with minimal injuries and collateral damage. He also points out that he didn't kill a single civilian bot during the Entrance Exam, which wouldn't have been possible without knowing his own Quirk inside and out.

* HoneyTrap: [[spoiler:Himiko Toga]] sets herself up as one for heroes she encounters, as part of [[spoiler:Stain's "crusade" against "fake" heroes. He kills Death Arms this way, but since Manual instead rejected Toga's advances, offered to buy her food and then to take her to a shelter for homeless teens, Stain decided to spare him]].

** Tenya doesn't have a reason to go after Stain in this fic, and considers doing so the height of foolishness.

* LaymansTerms: PlayedForLaughs. All for One really likes to speak in chess metaphors and analogies. Too bad for him, Shigaraki has no idea of chess, and Kurogiri has to translate it to videogame terms.

** During that same trek, each student has five flags that can be stolen by the teachers (only two per teacher and student), Pixie-Bob's beasts (one) or each other, and if a student loses a flag, they can't get it back. When All Might steals two of Izuku's flags, Ochako steals them back and lets Izuku take two of her flags.

* MamaBear: Inko Midoriya is a mother that will do anything to protect her son. [[spoiler:When Nezu calls her to tell her about Bakugo nearly killing Izuku and admits he was the one that pressured to put them together in the same team, Inko makes it obvious that, if Izuku doesn't survive, Nezu is going to be next.]]

** [[spoiler:Nezu gave one to the only two people that treated him well in the Pripyat lab that 'created' him, because he didn't want them to suffer from the FateWorseThanDeath he had planned for everyone else.]]

* NormalFishInATinyPond: While Bakugo might have been the best at Aldera Middle school, things are different at UA. While his Quirk is powerful, there are many other students (including Izuku) whose Quirks are as strong, if not stronger, than Bakugo's. This is also {{lampshaded}} by Kirishima in chapter 19.

* OldShame: InUniverse. When All Might was just graduated from U.A., he signed a deal to allow a film-maker to create a movie based on his life. The result was such a horrible mess that All Might made it a mission to track down every reel and video copy of the movie, in order to ensure no one else gets to see it. [[spoiler:Gran Torino has a copy he keeps around as a GuiltyPleasure.]] [[spoiler:So does Izuku - who lets his classmates watch it.]]

* PoorCommunicationKills: When a reporter asks Endeavor about his opinion of a Diet Act that is being currently debated, Endeavor, unwilling to either remain neutral nor admit he does not know what it is about, gives his support to the Act under the belief it's meant to provide aid to Quirkless people. He learns too late that said law intends to force Quirkless people to be sterilized unless they somehow show signs of not being Quirkless.

** During the ''Brawl Knight'' watching, one of the boys will look at the girl they like, admire their beauty and admonish themselves for looking.

*** The examinees are told about Villain points (for beating the villain robots) and Civilian points (for helping and rescuing civilian robots). They are not told about Hero points, awarded for showing heroic spirit. These can be earned in several ways: by helping other examinees, showing kindness to civilians and mercy to villains, co-operation, etc.

** Eraserhead, Midnight and Present Mic make two about Izuku's turn at the written exam. Midnight wins the first (she bet that it would take him less than an hour to finish), but Aizawa wins the second (he bet he would need more paper for writing the essay).

* ThrowTheDogABone: After he begins to grow as a person and stops acting like a pervert, Mineta begins to see things turning around for him: he gets a suit that improve his ability to use his hair, makes a deal to create an artificial version of his hair's adhesive for construction, and Kinoko Komori asks him out on a date. After the end-of-term test, Aizawa and Present Mic praise him for his willingness to go beyond and ensure he gets full marks for the test.

* VillainRespect: What spares Manual from Stain. The fact that [[spoiler: he didn't take Himiko's bait and instead tried to find her help along with not even carrying about his spot on the rankings, instead focusing on helping people made Stain considering him a True Hero.]]

** Aizawa calls Ojiro out for his actions during the end-of-term practical exam, because he chose to stay and watch Present Mic leave Mineta almost dead instead of helping him or at least get the target to the door.

* ThreeAmigos: Izuku forms this relationship with Uraraka and Iida, naming their group 'The Three Musketeers' (with Kendo joining in as an honorary member, fulfilling d'Artagnan's role) and it is implied that they will become the future Big Three. There is also the canon Big Three of Mirio, Tamaki, and Nejire and finally the group known as the Three Stooges: Shota (Eraserhead), Nemuri (Midnight) and Hizashi (Present Mic), with Tensei Iida (Ingenium) as an honorary/part time member.

* LaymansTerms: PlayedforLaughs. All for One really likes to speak in chess metaphors and analogies. Too bad for him, Shigaraki has no idea of chess, and Kurogiri has to translate it to videogame terms.

* LaymansTerms: Played with. All for One really likes to speak in chess metaphors and analogies. Too bad for him, Shigaraki has no idea of chess, and Kurogiri has to translate it to videogame terms.

** When Tenya encounters Nezu, he paraphrases [[Film/{{Ghostbusters}} Ray's speech to Gozer]], while Nezu replies by stating [[Series/{{Firefly}} "Mine is an evil laugh."]]

* AdaptationalJerkass: Endeavor is even worse than in canon. [[spoiler:During the fight with Stain, he reveals that Shoto is actually a DesignerBaby that he commissioned just for the sake of his ambition - as far as he's concerned, Shoto's not even his biological son.]] [[spoiler:When Toya died, he bribed the registry officials to erase his name from the family registry, and took out his tombstone so no official trace of Toya's existence remained. He would later threaten Natsuo with the same thing after the latter attempted to denounce Endeavor's abuse of Shoto.]]

* NeverLiveItDown: When Izuku first uses One for All, he rips a force plate off the floor, sending it out the window of the fortieth floor and crashing to the ground. No one was hurt, but everybody keeps on bringing this up to Izuku, who is embarrassed by the whole thing.

** [[spoiler: Now invoked on Katsuki by All For One, who used his behind-the-scenes control of Aldera to create opportunities to swap Katsuki’s Quirk out for a copy, switching them back and forth, before merging them together to ensure that a fragment of his consciousness has been permanently embedded within Katsuki, quietly manipulating his thoughts and influencing his feelings, and being able to assume direct control at times, which he uses to launch an attempt to kill Izuku that Katsuki is now being blamed for. Furthermore, All For One makes it clear to the heroes that, thanks to spending so much time inside Katsuki’s head, the fragment of All For One’s consciousness can imitate Katsuki’s behaviors perfectly, so they can never be sure whether Katsuki is in control or All For One is.]]

* OldShame: InUniverse. When All Might was just graduated from U.A., he signed a deal to allow a film-maker to create a movie based on his life. The result was such a horrible mess that All Might made it a mission to track down every reel and video copy of the movie, in order to ensure no one else gets to see it. [[spoiler:Gran Torino has a copy he keeps around as a GuiltyPleasure.]]

** Hisashi jumped into the fight against All for One to save his son.

* PoorCommunicationKills: When a reporter asks Endeavor about his opinion of a Diet Act that is being currently debated, Endeavor, unwilling to either remain neutral nor admit he does not know what it is about, gives his support to the Act under the belief it's meant to provide aid to Quirkless people. He learns too late that said law intends to force Quirkless people to be sterilized.

** The 1-A students also make one on Izuku and Ochako hooking up. ''Koda'' ends up winning the most.

** [[spoiler:Then played straight at the end-of-term exams, where Bakugo becomes so unhinged he deliberately fires a lethal attack through Izuku just so he can "win" the practical exam against All Might.]]

** Chapter 124: [[spoiler:All for One has been manipulating Bakugo for most of his life by swapping his Quirk with a copy and back, to the point that he's pretty much a secondary personality in Bakugo's mind.]]

** As Kyoka notices how Ectoplasm creates his clones (singing certain notes), she drops the relevant ''Film/TheSoundOfMusic'' reference ("Sol, a needle pulling thread" and "Re, a drop of golden sun") and counters with "[[Music/BonJovi Blaze of Glory]]" and "[[Music/{{Queen}} Under]] [[Music/DavidBowie Pressure]]".

** [[spoiler:In spite of all the proof put in front of her, Fuyumi persists in sticking to her father's side out of a (possibly misguided) hope of fixing him.]]

* IgnoredEpiphany: At one point, Bakugo begins to have doubts about his hypothesis that [[spoiler:Izuku had something to do with Toga attacking him]], but it doesn't take him long in shedding the idea and latching back on his baseless theories.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Bakugo is convinced that Izuku is extremely dangerous and has plans on how to kill everyone in the class, and had the habit since he was eight... because when they were both eight, he spotted some of Izuku's notes having the heading "Things that can kill Kacchan". While he didn't want to murder anyone, Izuku himself admits his social failures as a kid, including his bluntness in writing his notebooks, could be the origin of Bakugo's hate as he talks with Ochako [[spoiler:during their first date]], noting specifically that part.
