History WebVideo / MyHeroAbridged

** Todoroki may have been fairly aloof but he never directly harmed people [[spoiler: unlike Chili who tortures Scott into forfeiting by burning him. He also killed his mother, albeit accidentally.]]

** [[spoiler: Rei Todoroki was accidentally killed by Chili when he was too young to control his powers.]]

** [[spoiler:Six students die during the attack on the training camp.]]

* {{Deconstruction}}: Of ''My Hero Academia'' and its world, primarily hero society, heroes, and what is expected of them. No one is perfect, and no human can shoulder society alone. [[spoiler:Both Nana and All Might break under the weight of society's expectations of them, leading the former to give up her power and the latter to become bitter and self-loathing.]]

* DidNotSeeThatComing: All Might is genuinely caught off guard when Midoriya decides to risk his life to save Bakugo, the reason he's living on burrowed time.

* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Scott becomes [[spoiler: ''President of the United States'' after leaving UA. Tsu lampshades this trope while talking to him. He would later resign and return to school upon realizing the restrictions of power that go with the position.]]

* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Scott becomes President of the United States after leaving UA (though he resign later and returns to school upon realizing the restrictions of power that go with it). Tsu lampshades this trope while talking to him.

** Episode 7 has one aimed at Website/YouTube with him/it not caring about whether or not Midnight actually is as "family friendly" as she claims. To compound matters, this happens [[RefugeInAudacity right in front of it as well]]. Then there's it's Quirk's description:

* ChildrenAreInnocent: This series is decidedly nicer with it's interpretation of children than [[KidsAreCruel canon]]. Midoriya isn't ostracized for not having a Quirk because the kids are focusing more on his personality than a superficial power. While Bakugo is shown fighting because of his destructive Quirk, he also seems to have genuine friends as opposed to canon, where they were only friends because he had a powerful Quirk.

* TheAntiNihilist: Midoriya during season one. He's already living on burrowed time so he decides he might as well use every second he has doing heroic behavior.

** Endeavor is Australian, Momo is Russian, [[spoiler: as is her father Yuri, aka Overhaul]], Mina is French, and Aoyama is fake-French. Everyone else is American instead of Japanese.

** [[spoiler:Stain is killed by Todoroki.]]

* BiTheWay: Froggy has made passes at both Midoriya and Uraraka though she seems to prefer girls in general.

** Mineta has none of the perverted traits his cannon counterpart is infamous for (he claims he's saving himself for marriage)

** Chili's (Shouto) reluctance to use his fire quirk has a very different source than in canon: [[spoiler:due to his own irresponsibility in using his flames, he accidentally killed his mother, tore their family apart, and is implied to be the source of (his brother) Dabi's scars]].

** Uraraka starts getting this treatment after she reveals [[spoiler: her role in the incident that gave Midoriya cancer.]] Everyone except Bakugou thinks she's crazy, and nobody is willing to believe a word she says anymore. It tones down as she gets CharacterDevelopment.

* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Even years later, people are still not willing to let go of the fact that Bakugou was the one who gave Midoriya cancer.
* OnceMoreWithClarity: The first episode has a flashback where Bakugo attacks Izuku and says he had this coming. In season two, the audience is shown the flashback again with the additional context that [[spoiler:Uraraka put Bakugo up to it by claiming Midoriya bullied her, called her an inferior [[FantasticSlur Quirky]], and said [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Smash Mouth would go out of style in a few years]].]]

---> [[spoiler: '''Midoriya, while punching Bakugou:''']] Leave All Might alone, you Villain!

* ReformedButRejected: Nobody in 1A is particularly happy about having Iida around, despite his HeelFaceTurn in the previous season and his help saving Bakugou in the movie.

* SwappedRoles: Tenya's first conversation with Izuku is interrupted by Bakugou, mirroring Bakugou's first conversation with Izuku at U.A. Lampshaded by Tenya, himself:
---> ''Crap! Am I the Bakugou now?''

''My Hero Abridged'' is complete. Its sequel series ''My Hero Alternative'' is in the works. The prologue is available on [=JoyRide's=] Patreon. A preview was released in February 2020 and the full episode will be released on Youtube in Spring 2020.

** In the movie, Yomama tells Chili that he needs to get professional help after it's revealed that he's fantasized about raising kids with her, all because of a single conversation they had during their exam with Aizawa, all but blatantly taking a dig at the TodorokixMomo ship sparked by the canon equivalent of that moment.

* DrJerk: Subverted with Midoriya's doctor in the final episode. He acts like a jerk because he's stressed and tired and his patient is crowded by visitors who are stressing him out. Once he and Midoriya are alone, he's much calmer and [[spoiler: tries to give Midoriya a HopeSpot by telling him that with quirk-related research, they might find a cure for Midoriya's cancer before it's too late.]]

** Surprisingly, Uraraka. After she reveals [[spoiler:her obsession with Bakugo and hatred for Midoriya]] in the Sports Festival, everyone except Bakugo stops trusting her, and he tells her to her face he doesn't love her. Then [[spoiler: Iida tells her the truth behind his traitor status, knowing that nobody will believe her and the stress of this pushes her to start becoming a better person, in the hopes that people will find her more trustworthy.]] But thanks to her very public reveal of her crimes, [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg everyone she tries to prove herself to keeps pointing out her negative attributes and why they don't trust her]]. This forces her to confront those failings and she slowly begins genuinely improving. Then she starts developing a crush on Midoriya, because without her jealousy there's nothing to fuel her hatred and she can't help but start seeing his positive traits, and ultimately realizes [[spoiler:she was only ever in love with the ''ideas'' of Bakugo and Midoriya, not who they are as people.]]

* NeverLiveItDown: InUniverse. Even years later, people are still not willing to let go of the fact that Bakugou was the one who gave Midoriya cancer.

** Considering Zapper was on Jiro and Koda's team and it's explicitly stated that the only people who failed the exam was Bakugo and Scott, this means Larose/Ashido managed to beat Nezu all by herself, which is quite a lot considering she failed even with Kaminari helping her in canon.

* AdaptationalJobChange: In canon, Tsukauchi is a police officer. In the abridged series he is a lawyer.

** Characters from Webcomic/OnePunchMan get their nationalities changed as well. Child Emperor is American, Flashy Flash is British, Watchdog Man is Canadian, and Metal Bat is Russian [[spoiler:and also Vasily Yaoyorozu.]]

* AlternateUniverse: The series diverges so much from the anime that it can hardly be compared to canon. This is acknowledged by [[spoiler:the fifth season’s title: ''My Hero Alternative''.]]
* AmbiguouslyRelated: [[spoiler:Tomura and Momo might be half or full siblings.]]

* BlackComedy: Episode one opens with the tale of the Glowing Baby… which was promptly thrown out into the street. Also, Deku has a Quirk!... It's cancer. That's his Quirk. That should say enough about the series' tone [[CerebusSyndrome at least at first]]. The tone becomes much more serious after All For One shows up.

** Aizawa [[spoiler:was promised One For All by Nana Shimura but she ditched him in favor of Toshinori. This caused Aizawa to turn his back on UA and become a villain. During an attack, he erased Nana's Quirk, which caused the deaths of several people. He has worked to atone ever since.]]

* DarkHorseVictory: Episode 6 spends so much time focusing on the race between Bakugo and Todoroki. Episode 7 reveals that it's not either of them but rather [[spoiler: Iida who wins the race]].

* TheDogBitesBack: During the movie, [[spoiler: Tomura has enough of his grandfather belittling him and throwing him under the bus. He recruits the league on the spot and abandons All for One in his fight against All Might.]]

The upcoming sequel to the first series.

* AgeLift: In the manga, Overhaul is 20. In ''Abridged'' and ''Alternative'', he is much older considering he is Shigaraki and possibly Yaoyorozu's father.

* YoureNotMyFather: Shigaraki refuses to consider Overhaul his father and calls him a stranger to his face.
