| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) | comment |
A My Hero Academia fanfic by AboveTail.Everybody thinks Izuku Midoriya is Quirkless. They're wrong; he has a very powerful Quirk that has given him skills far beyond his age.He would prefer being Quirkless.Every once in a while, Izuku gets caught in a time loop, where he will die in brutal ways until he figures out what he needs to do in order to escape. This has left him with a very blase attitude towards life and his peers, and he is generally described as "weirdly confident".He still wants to be a hero, however, and he still manages to catch All Might's attention. With both One For All and Death by Design, he begins his time at U.A., aiming to become the top hero.Can be found here. | |

Heroic RRoD | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_1440584e | comment |
Heroic RRoD: Izuku gets past this issue much faster than in canon, since he is able to run the practical exam twenty times until he figures out how to make One For All work, with no worry about permanently injuring himself. However, he does still have problems. When he fights the zero-point robot, he activates Parallel Flow at 100%—meaning that instead of just breaking his legs and arm, he breaks every bone in his body. He's in a coma for five days. Blackwhip's power has severe backlash as well, meaning it takes a while for Izuku to get used to it. And he can't rely on the time loops too much, since One For All is getting stronger with every loop. | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Right before the second event of the Sports Festival, Izuku thinks to himself that the events aren't truly random, but thinks that it isn't a problem as they can't really change them on the fly. Cue a scene with the staff discussing what event to do next with what rules designed specifically to handicap Izuku's ability to tip the odds in his favour as he did in the first event. | |

Conditioned to Accept Horror | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_1b465242 | comment |
Conditioned to Accept Horror: Izuku's blase attitude becomes extremely disturbing once the full context of the time loops becomes apparent. After the USJ attack, he casually tells All Might that he died at least a thousand times, which even with the short loops means he was trapped for approximately three days. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Discussed. During the combat trial, Bakugo was paired with Hagakure as the villain team. Since she's invisible, he ordered her to defend the objective while he went on ahead to attack the enemy (Jirou and Kirishima). Without her around he didn't have to worry about his wide area of effect attacks, and he targeted Jirou first because her Super-Senses were the best counter to Hagakure, so if Kirishima managed to take him down Hagakure should be able to handle Kirishima on her own. They won, but since Bakugo didn't bother telling Hagakure any of this, the class assumed he was just an asshole who thought she was useless, and Hagakure admits she almost abandoned her post to attack the enemy and "prove him wrong", which would have been a disaster. Aizawa tells Bakugo to pay more attention to his leadership style, and Bakugo actually takes it to heart. | |

Resurrection/Death Loop | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_1db5ec6c | comment |
Resurrection/Death Loop: Izuku's Quirk is this. Once in a while, the universe or fate decides according to certain unknown requirements, that he's on the wrong "path", and he'll die and return to a previous moment in time. And then he'll keep dying, over and over again until he takes the "right" path. | |

Parents as People | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_20989d05 | comment |
Parents as People: Inko admits to Jirou that she was this during Izuku's childhood. When Izuku's Quirk first manifested and he told his mother what it did, she refused to believe him, dragging him from Quirk specialist to specialist and telling him that he shouldn’t make up horrible stories, all the while thinking that she was the reason his Quirk was that way. Even after she eventually accepted the truth and tried to support him, there was no real way for her to help him and by that point Izuku had already decided to hide his thoughts and feelings so as to not worry her, leading him to becoming a Stepford Smiler. | |

Flashback Echo | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_2e9641d7 | comment |
Flashback Echo: Izuku has a traumatic flashback in the USJ, where looping multiple times and being unable to escape causes him to remember one of his earliest loops as a child, in which he was trapped for so long and tormented so many times by Bakugo that it finally made him snap and murder Bakugo over and over again. This flashback causes Present day Izuku to freak out. | |

Thou Shalt Not Kill | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_2f94135c | comment |
Thou Shalt Not Kill: Heroes in general try to avoid killing, but Izuku absolutely refuses to do so under any circumstances. Partly because he knows he can keep trying until he gets it right, but also because he knows how terrible dying is. This is also because he doesn't wish to return to the mentality he used to have as a child, as in one of his earliest loops, he finally snapped and beat Bakugo to death with a rock. And then he kept killing him. Over and over and over... | |

Chivalrous Pervert | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_30de7a51 | comment |
Chivalrous Pervert: Kaminari takes Mineta's place as the class pervert, but the girls immediately note that he's not as bad. Even Uraraka says that his flirting would have been fine, but they were in the middle of a combat test so it was hardly the time. Izuku is chivalrous enough that Ashido initially thinks he's gay. He is a healthy heterosexual teenage boy, though, so when Todoroki freezes the arena and a certain part of Ashido's anatomy gets cold, Izuku is very insistent that she wear his jacket. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: While Mineta appears briefly, he is quickly expelled. Since Izuku placed higher in the tests, Mineta placed last, and unlike Izuku he didn't show any real promise for Aizawa to justify keeping him. His absence becomes important during the USJ, when without his Quirk there's no easy way for Asui and Izuku to handle the villains without killing them. Izuku is trapped in that loop for a long time. Later turns out to be subverted. Regardless of Aizawa's proclamations, teachers don't get to just expel students whenever they want. They can however eject them from their course and put them in the General Studies course, meaning Mineta was bumped down to there, and as such, returns for the Sports Festival as a part of that class. | |

Split Personality: Downplayed, but in one of his time loops at USJ, Izuku meets his own mental representation of his darkest and most violent desires, who tries to urge him to simply kill the villains to end the loop. | |

Blessed with Suck | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: Izuku's Quirk causes him to revive at a predetermined point whenever he dies. While it does give Izuku infinite attempts to get things just right, he also has to be careful not to give out information he shouldn't have. Also, because Izuku doesn't know what point he'll revive at beforehand, he can be tripped up if he revives later than expected, such as when he kills himself early in the villain attack on the USJ, only to revive just a few minutes before he died. On top of that, his Quirk has given him serious psychological issues both from being unable to prove it's real, even to himself, and from being forced to die and repeat a loop too many times. It's made worse by the fact he can't get professional help since not only would he sound crazy, but the level of danger needed for a hero/hero-in-training to have their psychological history released is considerably lower than it is for normal civilians, meaning speaking to a therapist would tank his career. | |

Doom Magnet | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_3c7d0418 | comment |
Doom Magnet: This is how Izuku's resets work, basically railroading him into doing things the "right" way by killing him if he does it wrong. In one of the earliest demonstrated loops, he saves a child from getting hit by a car but gets hit himself. When he tries again, he keeps the kid from running into the street, but the car careens onto the sidewalk and kills him there. All of this because his Quirk was trying to force a conversation with All Might. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: The Battle Trial between Izuku and Ashido as the villains and Todoroki and Asui as the heroes was one in the villain team's favor. Asui couldn't even enter the building because Todoroki froze the whole thing and had to scout from outside, and when he goes inside alone thinking he could handle both his opponents, it only takes Izuku and Ashido a few minutes to incapacitate him by splashing his face with a weak acid and then sucker-punching him. Of course, it would have gone differently had Todoroki used his full power, something that Izuku later calls him out on. | |

Not What It Looks Like: Bakugo sees Jirou coming out of Izuku's apartment in the morning and overhears her complaining about how he "worked her too hard" and now she can barely walk. Bakugo yells at Izuku for endangering his enrollment over a fling (U.A. has a policy against student relationships), and it takes Izuku a moment to realize what Bakugo is thinking. After he gets over his embarrassment, he points out that in addition to other reasons, he wouldn't bring a girl over to have sex in his mother's apartment. | |

The Leader | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_60e49895 | comment |
The Leader: Izuku becomes a cross between the Mastermind and Charismatic types. His high intellect as well as his experience with the timeloops means that he's very capable of analyzing situations quickly to come up with optimal plans that make use of his teammates' strengths, and despite his slightly more aloof nature, he has a magnetic presence and a level of intensity and focus that draws others in and inspires confidence in them. He combines both of these traits to come up with a plan that turns his classmates into a singular fighting force that allows them to dominate the first event of the Sports Festival. | |

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_72ce3f54 | comment |
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Izuku's relationship with Bakugo is slightly better, as Izuku's unconcerned attitude makes him difficult to bully. Likewise, when Bakugo confronts him about "lying" about being Quirkless, Izuku is able to calm him down by pointing out that Izuku did tell him he had a Quirk, Bakugo just never believed him. By the time of the Sports Festival, Bakugo sees Izuku as an actual rival rather than just a stepping stone, and Izuku reciprocates. Izuku's rivalry with Todoroki gets accelerated when Izuku and Ashido beat him in the Combat Test, and then Izuku gives him a tongue-lashing for not using his full power. | |

Armor-Piercing Question | |

Armor-Piercing Question: When most of his classmates refused to follow his plan to act as a unit during the obstacle race (admittedly, they did have good reasons), Izuku tells them that as long as the festival lasts, they aren't students, athletes, or even heroes; they're products to be sold, and asks them not if they could beat Bakugo or Todoroki in a competition, but if they could manage to make a bigger impression than them. Other than Aoyama (who is promptly ignored) everybody admits that they couldn't, and agreed to follow Izuku's plan. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: After Izuku and Ashido beat Todoroki and Asui in the Battle Trial, Izuku gives the other boy a heavy tongue-lashing about how he purposely handicaps himself. | |

The Generic Guy | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_80d0d980 | comment |
The Generic Guy: In-Universe, that's how people who don't know Izuku see him, something he's aware of; he's neither ugly nor good-looking, has a polite, pleasant but low-key personality, and his Quirk isn't that visually spectacular. Many characters use words like "plain" and "unremarkable" to describe him, somebody who doesn't stand out for either good or bad reasons. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Jirou tries to ease Izuku into the idea of her knowing about his original Quirk by joking he should "Try not to die on the way home" in passing. They realize their mistake when Izuku's heart rate skyrockets and he activates One For All, but it's not until Izuku finally corners them over a week later that they learn how serious the situation is for him. | |

| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_9a3b7208 | comment |
The Needs of the Many: While One For All can't be stolen, if people knew about it they would take hostage everyone who Izuku ever met in an attempt to get him to give it up. Izuku likens it to a nuclear bomb (he actually calculated All Might's power and figured he was at least as powerful as a nuke) and says that he would have to refuse to give up the power no matter what. He makes Jirou say it aloud to make absolutely sure she understands. | |

Adaptational Jerkass: Played with. Bakugo's personality is more or less the same as in canon (and in some instances, he's even a little nicer). However, his language is WAY more vulgar than in canon. For example, after Iida praised one of Izuku's ideas, Bakugo asked him if he enjoyed the taste of Izuku's dick inside his mouth. | |

Pragmatic Hero | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_aec63727 | comment |
Pragmatic Hero: Countless times dying has given Izuku a very pragmatic approach to life. Unlike in canon, he doesn't use the hero costume his mother made for him because it was too cheap to be suitable in real combat; he feels guilty but refuses to compromise. He also gives Uraraka a very frank assessment of her costume along these lines, specifically informing her that high heels are never appropriate for hero work. During the Battle Trial, Izuku kept resetting using a suicide pill specifically so he could be partnered with each of his classmates during different loops and interrogate them on their Quirks, making special note of their weaknesses. He then plants bugs on the opposing team to justify having this knowledge. | |

"Groundhog Day" Loop | |

"Groundhog Day" Loop: How Izuku's Quirk works. Every once in a while he gets caught in a loop and has to figure out what he has to do to escape it. The loops are usually only a few minutes long and are reset by his brutal death. He puts a suicide pill on his hero costume so that he can reset at will. | |

Berserk Button | |

Berserk Button: Izuku hates whenever anyone implies that anything serious is a joke. His entire life has been nothing but a long, cruel joke, so he snaps at anyone who doesn't take things seriously enough. The first time he activates One For All is when Iida chastises him for muttering during the explanation of the exam and accuses him of not taking it seriously. This also makes him even more annoyed at Todoroki's attitude than in canon. Kaminari implies that Bakugo is gay for Izuku. That doesn't go well for him. | |

No Social Skills | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_bd0d6395 | comment |
No Social Skills: Zigzagged with Izuku. While he's charismatic enough to make friends and inspires confidence in people, his past of being bullied by his peers also means that he doesn't really trust his classmates and sometimes flounders in social settings, like when Ashido invited him to karaoke the day after the USJ attack. It also takes him a while to understand how Jirou having spent the night in his apartment would be interpreted by people, not helped along by his poor choice of words. | |

Rage Breaking Point | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_c819533b | comment |
Rage Breaking Point: When Izuku was five years old, he kept replaying the same afternoon in a park over and over, where no matter what he said or did, the result remained the same — within a few minutes of his encounter with Bakugo and his cronies, something would inevitably kill him and send him back to when Bakugo decided to "play hero" by bullying another boy. Absolutely nothing he tried would stop Bakugo from tormenting that boy, with Izuku's death occurring a short while later. And then Bakugo decides to use All Might's catchphrase, "I am here", to justify his bullying. Hearing the words of his idol, which had become a lifeline to him after his Quirk manifested, being twisted in a fit of childish cruelty by his bully makes Izuku finally snap, and he beats Bakugo to death with a rock. And then he kept murdering him. Over and over and over... | |

Dude, Not Funny!: When it looks like Izuku and Jirou had sex, Ashido immediately starts teasing them. Jirou puts her foot down since U.A.'s policy on student relationships means this could get them expelled. Ashido tries to brush it off since "everyone knows" all the upperclassmen are hooking up, but Izuku counters that while the administration can ignore general rumors like that, especially if no names are known, rumors about specific students would have to be investigated. He does give her permission for more light-hearted teasing, though. | |

Hope Bringer: Izuku is already starting to become this to his classmates. During the USJ, he is impressed with Asui's courage, but when he stops being strong, she quickly breaks down. Part of what gets him to recover from the trauma his Quirk causes him is the idea of all his classmates counting on him. | |

Training from Hell: U.A. has this as standard. And then there's Izuku's, which is even worse than it was in canon. He trains for hours every morning, to the point that he needs Recovery Girl's help just to be functional for the rest of the day. Jirou does a "light workout" with him, skipping some of the worst parts at the end, and after she gets a chance to rest she falls dead asleep and can't be woken. The next day, she can barely walk. | |

Drama-Preserving Handicap | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_efacc623 | comment |
Drama-Preserving Handicap: While Izuku can learn to handle One For All better using the time loops, he can't increase his capacity. That is based on the strength of his body, and it's impossible to increase his physical power through time loops. Worse, One For All's power does increase through the loops, so if Izuku loops too much it will outstrip his training. Invoked in the Sports Festival. Izuku does such an excellent job organizing his class the first round (every single one of them places in the top twenty) that the teachers realize he'd dominate the planned cavalry battle. They do a King of the Hill-type match instead and change the way teams are chosen so that he can't control the outcome too much. | |

Suppressed Rage | |
| Heroes Never Die (Fanfic) / int_f1f8ca6 | comment |
Suppressed Rage: Although Izuku comes off as calm and self-controlled to others, he actually has a deep well of hidden rage and resentment that sometimes slips out, such as when he got angry with Ashido for interrupting him when he was trying to explain his plan during their Battle Trial, and more prominently, how he reacts to Jirou eavesdropping on his conversation with All Might and finding out about his original Quirk. He usually apologizes immediately for his outbursts, but it doesn't stop him from being very intimidating in those moments. | |
