* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In this universe, Izuku's dad, Hisashi Midoriya, was a Pro Hero going by the name Salamander. He dies during a villain attack after his teammates get scared off and abandon him. Several years later, Izuku's grandfather dies as well, once again during a villain attack with five Pro Heroes present. These events cause Izuku to [[TookALevelInCynic become much more jaded]] than his canon counterpart, leading to his negative view of the Hero Industry.

He also takes to wielding One For All much easier than in canon, being able to utilize up to 80% of it almost right off the bat.

* AdaptationalBadass: And how. Even before receiving One for All, Izuku's been saving people from falling objects, pulling them out of the paths of speeding vehicles, or driving bullies off for them. As these incidents grow more dangerous, he enrolls in a dojo to learn self-defense - as such, by the time that All Might finds him, he's more than proficient in hand-to-hand combat.
** Class 1-A, during the attack on the Unforeseen Simulation Joint. Izuku's original quirk keeps them from being teleported away by Kurogiri's portals. Because of this, they're all able to assist Aizawa in fighting the villains, at least until Kurogiri warps them away for real.
* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In this universe, Izuku's dad, Hisashi Midoriya, was a Pro Hero going by the name Salamander. He dies during a villain attack after his teammates get scared off and abandon him. Several years later, Izuku's grandfather dies as well, once again during a villain attack with five Pro Heroes present. These events cause Izuku to [[TookALevelInCynic become ''much'' more jaded]] than his canon counterpart, leading to his negative view of the Hero Industry.

Before receiving One for All, Izuku Midoriya played the role of a hero without flashy superpowers or such. Or; the one where Izuku is blessed with the most heroic quirk in existence.
The problem is, [[ReluctantHero being a hero's the last thing he wants to be.]]
[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/14569902/chapters/33667527 the curse of the anime protagonist]] is a ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' fanfic by masterdipster. In this story, Izuku manages to manifest a Quirk before ever meeting All Might, but it is both useful and a liability to him; it inflicts him with ChronicHeroSyndrome, pushing him to intervene in situations ranging from easygoing to dangerous. While he can't help but try to help those in need no matter the danger, his actions catch the eye of a certain hero...

!!the curse of the anime protagonist provides examples of:
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Izuku's Quirk invokes this: it basically signals to his body that someone nearby needs help, ranging from saving them from disasters, to defending them from the most dangerous criminals and villains, to [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers saving a cat on top of a tree]].
* DisappearedDad: Izuku's father and later grandfather are dead by the first chapter. [[TookALevelInCynic This unhealthily gives him a more jaded look in life.]]
* IceMagicIsWater: Yashiro's Quirk is manipulating the forms of water and even moisture, either solidifying them into ice or evaporating it. As time goes on, he's able to skip a few steps to get the results quicker.
* RefusalOfTheCall: Initially, Izuku refuses One for All because he [[IJustWantToBeNormal only wants to live a normal life without the spotlight of heroism]], but after Katsuki declares that he's not running from his role to save people, Izuku realizes that he ''can't'' run away because his Quirk can't turn off, and he doesn't want to ignore the people who desperately need saving either.
* SpiderSense: Izuku's Quirk in a nutshell, as it tends to lead him to danger that is happening or will happen soon, along with the people he has to save. Aizawa even states it's one of the most useful Quirks for any hero to have.
* TookALevelInCynic: Let's just say that the deaths of Izuku's two family members haven't done well to his mentality, as he blames the heroes for not being able to save them. This view of reality is more of the opposite of his canon counterpart.
