History Fanfic / OnePunchDeku

* AbusiveParent: Hisashi Midoriya: Izuku only exists because Hisashi was ''paid'' by the US government in the attempt of fathering a telekinetic as powerful as his first daughter (that being Tatsumaki), only to abandon him and tell Tatsumaki her brother had died in childbirth and her mother didn't want to see her upon finding out he was Quirkless from an X-ray done ''at birth'', while not telling Inko anything. And at some point he renounced both his and Tatsumaki's Japanese citizenship without telling the latter. Needless to say, Izuku fears he'll ''kill him'' if he ever met him again, and upon finding out everything Hisashi did Tatsumaki almost ''did'' kill him.

* BerserkButton: Because Izuku was forced into absolute self-reliance out of FantasticRacism and did nothing but work in order to make it into UA, he ''hates'' it when people try to blame him for their own misfortunes.

* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Having no quirk of his own, Izuku put in a workout routine that pushed himself to the limit daily "until [his] whole body burned and [he] puked blood." By the time he makes it into UA, he has unlimited stamina, SuperStrength and SuperSpeed that surpasses All Might's in his prime, invincibility, an IdealIllnessImmunity and a KillingIntent aura.

* GagPenis: [[spoiler:Izuku seems to have one. After all of his clothes get destroyed from his fight with Todoroki in the Sports Festival Tournament, pictures of his naked form become a meme online, most of the girls in the Hero Course gawk at a poster copy of his physique and Izuku gets regularly accosted and groped by fans he happens to meet on the train. If it weren't for his KillingIntent, it would have only gotten worse.]]

* KillingIntent: A side-effect of Izuku's overwhelming power is that he gives off an aura of danger that affects anyone that touches him. He has no means of turning it off and it usually happens by accident, the first time it happening being when he was giving money to the register in a convenience store.

--> '''Izuku''': I want you to listen to me for a moment. Can you honestly say, without a shadow of a doubt that you gave it your all, trying to get into this place? Did you not care what the world thought of you, did you push yourself to the limit daily, until your whole body burned and you puked blood? Because that's what I did to get into U.A. I relied on no one but myself. I broke through the limits set onto me by society. Did you do the same? Tell me, yes, and I will walk out of this ring right now, and resign. Then you can have my spot in the hero course. I don't care if you lie since you'll be only lying to yourself, and be weeded out before the end of the semester. And don't you start wallowing in self-pity. If you spend even a minute thinking, you'd realize how amazing your quirk is. Of course, you'll never be like All Might. But if that's what made you want to become a hero, then give up right now. But, if you want to become a hero, to prove the world wrong, to do good, then you better be prepared to give it your all. If you have a dream, then you must be prepared to do anything, even become deaf to the screams of the world, telling you you'll fail.

* ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself: Having spent his whole life with no real support to achieve his dreams, Izuku has developed a knee-jerk opposition to having other people do things for him or helps him get an edge up, declining All Might's offer for One For All when offered.

* TookALevelInCynic: While Izuku used to be the CryCute idealist his canon counterpart was, by the time he gains his CharlesAtlasSuperpower he has developed a sarcastic sense of humor and a loner attitude very similar to Todoroki.

* KillingIntent: A side-effect of Izuku's overwhelming power is that he gives off an aura of danger that effects anyone that touches him. He has no means of turning it off and it usually happens by accident, the first time it happening being when he was giving money to the register in a convenience store.

* ICantHearYou: During the Sports Festival, two students talking at normal volume in the middle of the arena will not be heard by most of the audience. Such as when [[spoiler:Shinso makes Izuku reveal his quirklessness]]. The only ones who could understand them are Midnight (who's standing closest), Aizawa (who can read lips), and Ryukyu (who has super hearing).

* RealityEnsues:
** Izuku pulls the same "bite a sword apart" move that Saitama uses against Speed O' Sound Sonic. He is immediately concerned that he may contract a disease from the blood that contaminates the sword.

* DefeatByModesty: [[spoiler:Izuku's defeat at the sports festival is due to his clothing being completely destroyed. He literally runs out of the arena to get dressed, giving Katsuki the win.]] Bakugo is ''not'' happy to win this way.

* ScrewDestiny: When Nighteye uses his quirk on Izuku to see his future... he sees nothing. If either of them were to die, then he would at least see ''that''. Izuku concludes that this is because has "no destiny, no fate, no determined path for [him] to follow".
