* BadBadActing: Bakugou Katsuki is a boy of many talents, but ''acting'' is not among them. This becomes clearer the more we hear about [[NoodleIncident the performance of]] ''[[NoodleIncident Hamlet]]'' he starred in at Aldera. Twenty people were ''hospitalized,'' the drama teacher had to be carted off in a straightjacket, and during the ensuing quirkism lawsuit, the judge took one look at the recording and agreed that there was ''no way'' Katsuki earned the role on merit.

* ThatMakesMeFeelAngry: Nezu casually drops this exact line when talking about how [[AbusiveDad Hisashi Midoriya]] seems to think that he's going to [[KarmaHoudini get away with]] decades of preying on sixteen-year-old girls, neglecting his child, and [[spoiler: collaborating with All For One]]. The effect just emphasizes how [[TranquilFury very badly]] things are going to turn out for the man.

* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: {{Play|ingWithATrope}}ed with. Due to fearing All For One would kill anyone who becomes his friend, Izuku pushes away Tenya and Ochaco on the first day when they offer to be friends, acting CruelToBeKind even though it visibly hurts them. This causes them to be nowhere near as close with him as canon, Ochaco even rebuking Izuku during the Sports Festival while throwing his words right back at him. Only after Izuku saves Tenya from Stain at Hosu do things start to change, Ochaco apologizing for what she said and being more open towards Izuku, and once Izuku reveals his circumstances to everyone after All For One is arrested, the two decide to start over with Izuku, it all but said their relationship will become more like it was in canon now.

Izuku Midoriya was only a kindergartner when his parents purchased a quirk for him and indebted him to the Symbol of Evil. When All for One comes to collect his due, he takes Inko hostage and gives Izuku less than a month to get into the top hero school in Japan.

At U.A., Izuku finds himself torn between his morals or survival, and his hero friends or his bonds with the villains.
