Worthless Necessity by Kirityu_Ryukaro

Summary
Quirks aren't everything in this world, nor is your family status.
Animals are treated less than humans, even though they have the capacity to feel emotions and think for themselves. They're pushed away, merely because they're not human. Nezu? Heck, he's so smart, everyone's scared of what would happen if they got on his bad side. Half the society, at the very least, still think that he's just an animal.
Midoriya? No quirk, he's ranked even lower, less than human. At least Nezu still had a quirk.
At least, that's what they thought.
Warning: This fic contains depression, suicide, self harm, etc.

For as long as he could remember, Izuku has always wanted to be a hero, right next to his best friend. But when he finds out that his Quirk isn’t combat-based and it’s a healing type power, things start to go downhill. First, he loses his best friend, then he is bullied for basically being Quirkless and is constantly told that he can’t become the type of Hero that he wants to be, and lastly, the death of his mother when he turns thirteen.

Summary
Izuku’s quirk is venom. Like from the movie.
He is found by Eraserhead while he was on patrol fighting people trying to mug a woman. Eraserhead tells the police and they decide to force Izuku to go to the hero course because if he became a villain, he would be too dangerous. He never wanted to be a hero and he hates them. Izuku isn’t allowed to leave the campus because the heroes are afraid he’ll run. Chaos ensues- Language:

Death of a hero, Rise of an era by Sailurean

Summary
It can take years to become a hero, and minutes to become a villain. Izuku has always wanted to help others, and his quirk status has never deterred him from his path. Other people may want him to give up, may think he's too weak to pursue the path he has chosen, but he will become a hero despite that, even if that means bending the law. Becoming a villain takes minutes, and Izuku, hero or vigilante, will always strive to step in before that happens, no matter the cost.
Izuku has been helping others for as long as he can remember. What's helping a few villains after all that?!

Summary
He hadn’t thought about it in years. It was easier that way, pretending Izuku didn’t exist; that Katsuki hadn’t done what he’d done. But now Izuku was back. Back in the same town, the same school, the same class. Right in front of him, mere feet away, was the object of every fucking feeling Katsuki didn’t want to feel. The source of his problems, his hatred, his anger, his regret, sorrow, self-doubt, insecurity--everything he didn’t know how to feel was back, and Katsuki couldn’t escape any of it now.
Or,
Katsuki's childhood friend moves back home after living with his dad in California for five years, and now he has no choice but to face old feelings.

Build Me Up! by L3opard_Sp0ts
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
11 May 2026
Tags
Summary
After his internship with Gran Torino and the Stain Incident, Izuku is stuck with one lingering thought: he can’t be another All Might. Gran had said his admiration was a shackle but what did it mean to not emulate All Might? Who was Izuku anyway if you stripped the All Might from him? Could little quirkless Izuku really be a hero? There’s only one thing to do really. If he needs help with being himself, then he’ll go to the one person who has never bowed to society’s expectations of her: the R-Rated Hero, Midnight!
It’s painfully obvious to Nemuri that Izuku Midoriya is about as awkward and anxiety riddled as possible but she’s never backed down from a challenge before. And if this bone-breaking nervous wreck needs a little self-confidence, well then she’ll just have to build him up one brick at a time.
Sometimes just a little confidence can change the whole world.

Summary
His tenth birthday, something that should have been a rather normal occasion. It is forever changed when Midoriya Izuku learns what it means to lose everything that he holds dear. What it means to be utterly powerless.
Pulled from a train, covered in blood, and voiceless. Unable to save himself or those that he held closest. That day, Izuku starts to understand what it means to face death and what the finality brings. Forced to face his new reality, he struggles to do things no one else thought he was ever capable of. Forced to grow to become a monster that no one believed he was able to be.
Midoriya Izuku, raised by Shie Hassaikai after months of being on his own, and left behind by the one person he let in after Kacchan left and his mother died. He comes to learn that family is little more than who you place faith in. Who you chose to stand beside. No matter the cost.
Forever shifting the fates of those around him and becoming a brother, son, and nephew to those he so chooses. Izuku reforms Hero Society, changes the Shie Hassaikai yakuza group, and takes down those who would harm those he cares for with little more than a gun or gall to do so.

Summary
An expanded look into the life of Izuku Midoriya the devil child who everyone loves to hate.
Or rather, Izuku has a Fallen Angel quirk allowing him to manipulate darkness at will and looks like a devil with those sharp teeth, slit-pupiled glowing eyes, pointed ears and black leathery burnt wings. When being kind doesn't work against his bullies, Izuku learns to manipulate others via flirting. And maybe gets a little too good at it. While he's at it, maybe he'll prove people wrong. Someone with a villainous quirk can be a hero. Along the way, he'll make real friends, maybe break some hearts, and scare someone to death.
An expansion of my one-shot, Daisy.

Summary
The Sludge Villain doesn't find Bakugo after escaping All Might, but some other random civilian. There's no series of explosions to draw All Might to the scene of the second attack. It's by pure luck that Izuku stumbles upon them. And Izuku does what he always has when he sees one person hurting another: inserts himself between the aggressor and victim. He finds this is significantly harder to do when one of the parties is a sentient slime.

Summary
Maybe that was why, when he woke up in a windowless room he didn’t recognize, on a couch he didn’t recognize, in clothes he didn’t recognize, Deku didn’t panic. His first thought had been “someone must have saved me” and he felt the warmth of the blanket that covered him seep into his chest.
His second thought was “would getting kidnapped really be that bad compared to how I was living before?”
Loneliness did strange things to a person's psyche.

Summary
The cheering crowd circled the makeshift ring at the center of the warehouse floor, fists in the air and gaping mouths screaming obscenities at the two idiots in the ring.
Izuku was one of those idiots.
“Kid - get the hell up!” Izuku snapped his attention to Giran
“You wanna fucking tag in, Giran?”
“Fuck no, but if you throw this match I’m out a lot of fucking money.”
Izuku’s opponent was a big fucking bastard, the biggest he’d fought to date, actually.

OR: Izuku is an underground fighter, when the heroes raid his fight, slap a villain rank on his name, and force him into a reform program at UA, will he find a way to keep fighting, to prove to the world (and to himself) that his value doesn't lie in how much blood he can spill?
