* AmbiguousDisorder: Midoriya is shown at the beginning to have some signs of schizophrenia and anxiety, and while some of it is due to his fractured nature, a fair bit of it could be chalked up to one of the two.

Oyasumi Midoriya is somewhat known for being both an incredibly confusing work, as well as a frightening one. Much of it's horror comes from how much of [[MindScrew what exactly is going on is unknown.]] The other half of the horror comes from the fact that in this fic there is [[NoFourthWall No Fourth Wall]], and it is most certainly [[PlayedForHorror Played For Horror.]] Tread lightly, as it does contain quite a bit of disturbing content.

fear.

* MindScrew: Oh, ''so much.''
** Midoriya's very existence is a mind screw in itself. He seems to break every convention of both his world and the world of the fic itself.
** The scenes in the fic often change and warp dramatically to a disorienting degree.
** At the end of every chapter, there is often an encoded link to something, usually story related, that comes from all corners of the internet. The interactivity of that in itself can get pretty screwy when ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou there start being links inserted into the text itself.]]'' Spooky stuff.

* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: It starts with simple encoded links at the end of each chapter, but slowly and surely ''your own presence'' as a reader is taken into account, as the fic starts encoding links directly into the words of the chapter itself, switching to first person to directly address the reader, as well as addressing the fictional reality of it all.

* ShoutOut: Plenty, though there are three main ones:
** To start, the whole fanfiction is inspired pretty heavily by [[Anime/SerialExperimentsLain Serial Experiments Lain]], which also deals with themes of identity through the lens of technology and fiction.
** [[Anime/AngelsEgg Angel's Egg]] is also referenced, having links to it in the notes, and referring to some of the same questions that it asks about God.
** Near the end, [[Anime/MawaruPenguindrum Mawaru Penguindrum]] is also refrenced quite a bit, the fate of Midoriya almost paralleling the ending of the show.

Midoriya Izuku has a quirk. And yet, he doesn't know what it does.

All he knows is it's something bad.


[[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm Really bad.]]


[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/16237514/chapters/37958840 Oyasumi Midoriya]] was a [[Manga/MyHeroAcademia My Hero Academia]] fanfiction that ran from October 18th, 2018, to June 4th, 2020. The story loosely follows the manga's plot,[[spoiler: at least at first]], with most of the changes in the story stem from Midoriya's quirk, which he isn't quite sure of what it does. What follows is his quest to find out what exactly the true depths of his power are, and finding out some sinister secrets about his classmates along the way.

Sound straightforward enough? [[ShmuckBait Yeah, right.]]


Oyasumi Midoriya is somewhat known for being both an incredibly confusing work, as well as a frightening one. Much of it's horror comes from how much of [[MindScrew what exactly is going on is unknown.]] The other half of the horror comes from the fact that in this fic there is [[NoFourthWall No Fourth Wall]], and it is most certainly [[PlayedForHorror Played For Horror.]] Tread lightly, as it does contain quite a bit of disturbing content.


!!''Oyasumi Midoriya'' Contains Examples of:

* AdaptationalAbomination: As has become a bit common with some Hero Acadamia fics, Midoriya's quirk is shown to posses monstrous abilities. [[spoiler: Taken one step further, when it's revealed that he actually is [[HumanoidAbomination something other than human.]]]]

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Bakugou, Momo, and Todoroki, the other three main characters, are all hit with this.
** Bakugou: While he starts out the same pompous jerk that he was in the show, overtime he becomes a bit kinder to those around him, probably in no small part to the sobering trip that was the [[WhamEpisode USJ exercise.]]
** Momo: She's still a kind honors student, but is given a [[AscendedExtra much bigger role.]] [[spoiler: She's later fleshed out as having known all along about Midoriya's true nature, as her parents sent her to UA to spy on him.]]
** Todoroki: While he arguably changes the least out of the three, he still has some development. He goes from the stoic and aloof prodigy that is dead-set on beating Midoriya, to arguably the most emotionally stable of the three, as well as lightening up a significant amount.

* CosmicHorrorStory: Most certainly fits the category, with the mystery surrounding Midoriya, and the sinister things that unfold around him.
**Leans into [[SurrealHorror Surreal Horror]] quite a bit, especially in the animatics.

* CloningBlues: [[spoiler: Midoriya, slowly coming to realize that there are more of them out there, starts to have a decay of his own identity and existence, so much so that he starts going barefoot in order to ground himself in reality.]]
** [[spoiler: Two doesn't seem too happy about being a clone either.]]

* EvilTwin: [[spoiler: More like evil ''septuplets''. Although some are more benevolent than others, such as Four, who is the most helpful out to the seven.]]

* LiteralSplitPersonality: Big time. [[spoiler: One is the cornerstone, Two is emotion (not sympathy, keep that in mind), Three is desire, Four is empathy, Five is intellect, Six is Anger, and Seven is fear.]]

* TheSoulless: [[spoiler: Midoriya/One, due to his powers causing his soul to fracture into pieces.]]
