Their childhood growing up at the institute, how they come to see each other as a precious person when their lives revolved around pain and frustration, and their tragic falling out and final conversation after the PLA arc, are well-paced and provide good characterization for both leading characters.

| 188 | ** Synopsis: When Midoriya Izuku is 13 years old, he is kidnapped on his way home from school by a villain. One year later he is found and returned home with some scars, no memories of the events he went through, and a latent fire quirk. Izuku has to live a double life if he and his loved ones are to survive, even if that means lying to everyone and committing deeds that he's not sure the heroes would forgive him for. He just needs to come up with a plan to defeat one of the most powerful men in the world, maintain both of his covers in the presence of enemies and allies alike, and hopefully not forget the "real" him. Bakugo Katsuki is certain that Izuku has been lying to everyone since the day he had been rescued. And he's going to figure out his secret. |

| 638 | This morning, they woke up in either A) an abandoned building, B) unfamiliar apartments with unfamiliar school uniforms, C) a plush bedroom nicer than their entire house... or D) the League of Villains' headquarters, because of COURSE Izuku still manages to draw the shortest straw even when others are screwed over too.\ |
| 639 | UA tries its best to prepare its students for anything, but one topic it never covered: what to do if you wake up in an alternate dimension. Six students suddenly find themselves in an unfamiliar world where the balance between Heroes and Villains is more unstable than ever and they have no idea how they got there or to get home. All they know is that this world is horribly wrong, and they're largely on their own. (Well, except Izuku, but he thinks he'd prefer that.) |

With his appearance bringing new points of view and evidence to light, it's up to him and the older versions of his classmates to finally crack the case once and for all. An unknown time limit hanging over his head, coupled with the residual emotional trauma that his friends experience at his reappearance are just a few bumps in the road that they have to get over, lest the case remain unsolved forever. |

| 781 | ** Synopsis: "Deku" is a hero whose strength seems limitless, with a quirk to topple mountains and the most powerful of foes. He is a symbol of peace, and carries the wishes of lost friends and the legacy of a past mentor on his shoulders. But Midoriya Izuku is also a quirkless boy of eleven years, with the name "Deku" being nothing more than a juvenile insult. Time and place don’t really matter though—because regardless of what he appears to be, he knows exactly what he fights for. |

| 939 | It's how the face and the hair were the same but the person hiding behind his eyes was different. What were once bright, lively eyes full of energy were now alight with something deceptive and sinister and wrong, hiding among familiar ruby red like a snake in the grass. The sight of that angular face, not darkened by its usual frown but smoothed out by eerie, unnatural, uncharacteristic calmness set the hair at the back of his neck on end.\ |
| 940 | Kacchan then smiles. It's a soft grin, as pliant and serene as the look in his eyes. It's the smile of someone who has all the time in the world. Someone who could do anything they wanted and they were confident that the world would bend to their will.\ |
| 941 | It's at that moment that Izuku understands that the person behind those eyes wasn't Kacchan at all.\ |
