* WillfullyWeak: During the Heroes Vs. Villains Excersize, Izuku is voted to be the test's MVP for his impressive fighting skills and strategies winning the match. Izuku declines, pointing out that he was holding back and that if he were to hold back in a real life situation, it would be both dangerous and unproffessional. It is not until the USJ attack does everyone -- to their horror -- realize exactly what he was talking about.

* RealityEnsues: When Momo tests bladed weapons on Izuku, he informs her after each attack that she hit something vital and would kill anyone without regeneration. Momo gets exasperated and asks where a ''good'' spot to stab non-lethally is, then realizes that there isn't one. A human body is full of vital organs and large arteries are in each limb, so getting stabbed anywhere is potentially lethal. Izuku, who hadn't actually thought of that, then admits bladed weapons are only good when your opponent can regenerate, you are skilled enough to intentionally miss vitals, or you want to kill someone.

* ComboPlatterPowers: Izuku's hunter abilities quirk seems to be [[DimensionalTraveler the ability to move himself and connection objects between his own world and the Hunter's Dream (and by extension Yharnam) on a whim]]. His exposure to the dream give many horrors and wonders of both worlds however has given him this.a massive arsenal of skills, weapons, items, arcane knowledge and a slew of other things.



* DeathIsCheap: Having [[ConditionedToAcceptHorror grown desensitized to death and gore from his time in Yharnam]] and his connection to the Hunter's Dream giving him ResurrectiveImmortality, he doesn't even blink at the thought of killing people or being outmatched by the murderous Nomu. If anything, he's more upset that his own fellow students had resorted to killing in self-defense out of protective obligation.
* EverybodyHasStandards: While Bakugo is still the prick that he always was, it isn't until he sees Izuku cut down villains like wheat with his scythe does it sink in that something ''horrible'' happened to Izuku and worries that he might be responsible in some way.



* InvisibleStreaker: Here it is confirmed that Hagakure's default hero outfit is just a pair of gloves and shoes. Because Izuku's high insight allows him to see the unseeable, his first reaction is to give her his coat, not wanting to take advantage of her state of undress and get distracted.
