Reviled as 'The Mustafu Firestarter', Izuku Midoriya has had a hard life ever since his Quirk first awakened and destroyed a third of his city, killing his parents and countless others by pure accident. Even after being rescued from a lifetime of torture, Izuku still believes himself to be nothing more than a monster and a villain, despite what everyone tells him otherwise.
- Always Someone Better: To the Todoroki Family and any Elemental Quirk user; with his Quirk fully manifested, he leaves them all in the dust.
- Awesomeness by Analysis: It wouldn't be Izuku if he didn't delve into all the aspects of a person's Quirk and how they could improve with creative fever.

- Heroic Self-Deprecation: Due to the Firestarter Incident, Izuku has basically become convinced he is a mass murderer and a villain despite the whole thing starting over a complete accident.

- Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Decides to help fight the COVERS even after being told to stand down.
- Superpower Lottery: Basically what his Quirk gives him after it fully awakens. Originally, he could only create, control, and manipulate fire but thanks to the experiments done on him, he can now do the same for just about every element in existence.
- Transmutation: He was infused with a second Quirk that allows him to manipulate matter with a touch ala Fullmetal Alchemist
- What Is This Thing You Call "Love"?: Struggles to understand his funny but welcomed feelings for Ochako.
- What You Are in the Dark: During the USJ attack, many are quick to recognize the Nomu as Izuku's rapist and work towards getting a traumatized Izuku out of the yeh area as quickly as possible.

- An earlier example is when he freed Himiko. Despite all the pain and suffering that he went through, he still helped her break out and even gave her his All-Might toy...because she needed help.

- Ascended Extra: Was originally just a part of Tomura Shigaraki's backstory and one of the casualties of his Quirk awakening. Now, she is given a second chance at life and at being a Hero.

Downplayed in that Masato will regenerate the eye in a day or two.

- Reformed Criminal: He was once a high-ranking member of the White Clad before his brother and Endeavor saved him.
- Time Stands Still: Downplayed. Sho can superheat the area around him to such a degree, that time moves faster for him compared to everyone else, allowing him to catch even someone like Tenya Iida off-guard.
