"5: Reposition"


Tropes That Appear In This Chapter:

  • Chekhov's Gift: As an olive branch, All For One gives Izuku Eri. It isn't entirely in good faith, since the Eight Precepts of Death are now looking for her and they will eventually try to kill Izuku and his loved ones to get to her.
  • Distinction Without a Difference: Tachibana points out that in spite of Izuku's insistence to the contrary, his tendency to rush into hostile situations to save people and chasing down a literal supervillain because people could get hurt otherwise is the definition of a hero.
  • Entertainingly Wrong: All For One himself confronts Izuku under the belief that he is the current holder of One For All. If this were the canon series he would be right, but here all he accomplishes is letting Izuku in on All Might's big secret.
  • In a Single Bound: Kābā convinces Izuku to jump ten stories to his apartment on the false premise that it was being attacked.
  • Shout-Out: This little line ripped from How to Train Your Dragon.
    Tachibana: Maybe if you want this to stop being about you. You should stop being this.
    Izuku: You just pointed to all of me.
    Tachibana: Yes. You need to stop being all of you.
  • Story-Driven Invulnerability: Izuku admits that while he is invulnerable, it is possible to draw blood only when he wants too.
  • Super Zeroes: Izuku points out his unwillingness to wait for a hero to come and do his vigilantism in his place is because he has been lectured five times by the same hero (likely referring to Death Arms), twice for getting shot and once for being held hostage.
