His Leading Light by Emotional_Logic
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
01 May 2025
Tags
Summary
Midoriya Izuku was 4 years old when an x-ray at the doctor's office gave him the diagnosis of quirkless.
Midoriya Izuku was 6 years old when his quirk finally came, and he found out he was a rare "false negative". And at the same age, he learned that having a quirk meant nothing if said quirk didn't stand out more than his red shoes.
Midoriya Izuku isn't quirkless.
He has a quirk.
It's just that no one cares enough to believe him.(Future Dadzawa coming)

Deku D.O. by Bephacrixion, HebrewShira (Bephacrixion)

Summary
“You work as a surgeon for an illegal underground clinic?”
“It just so happens that this clinic here is only MOSTLY illegal. There’s big difference between mostly illegal and all illegal. Mostly illegal is slightly legal.”
“Problem child…”
Izuku secretly spends his nights working for an underground hospital which serves quirkless patients, people without insurance, and those who would prefer to avoid the eyes of the law. However, after years of hard-work keeping his nighttime activities a secret, his hero work and night life start to collide.
Or: what happens when I watch BNHA when I’m in the mood for a medical drama.

The Hidden Butterfly: Sasakia by RoseBloodCat
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga), Miraculous Ladybug
28 May 2026
Tags
Summary
Sasakia is a Vigilante Informant based in Musutafu and not affiliated with any agency or group. Despite the large number of cases he’s been involved in, no one has ever met him in person. Instead, he feeds information to heroes and police through the use of telepathy via glowing yellow and purple butterflies. He’s a highly valued anonymous source, though there are a few Underground Heroes who are looking into his true identity.
Midoriya Izuku is a shy but friendly quirkless student aiming to join UA’s Management Course to become a Quirk Profiler for a Hero Agency. (Limelight or Underground, he’s not very picky.) He dutifully attends school, takes self-defense classes at the local gym alongside his mother, and never goes anywhere without his lucky butterfly brooch.
Despite both having a vested interest in Heroes and their success and both living in the same area, there are no other visible connections between them. And that is exactly how Izuku and Nooroo want things to stay.
But something is stirring in Musutafu and making it very difficult for the young wielder of the Butterfly Miraculous to keep his lives separate and secret.
Izuku just hopes he doesn’t end up in prison at the end of the line.

Summary
Inko Midoriya dies in an unfortunate accident, leaving her son to navigate the foster-care system as a quirkless kid. Growing tired of quirk-prejudice and abuse from foster families, Izuku decides to run away. He's only free for a few hours before he's kidnapped by the League of Villains.
The League quickly realizes what potential Izuku has to be their weapon, and Izuku is thrust into a life of villainy and lies.
At fourteen, Izuku reunites with Bakugou Katsuki. Slowly, they rebuild their friendship. Katsuki is concerned for his friend, not oblivious to Izuku's suspicious behavior. What is Izuku hiding from him?
(basically: my excuse to write dadzawa, vigilante izuku, kidnapped izuku, traitor izuku, sassy izuku, and bkdk at the same time)

Deku And Death by LivinLucky

Summary
“So… you’re basically the Grim Reaper?”
“Sort of…”
“But now… you’re retired?”
“Indeed.”
“And now that’s my job?”
“Yes.”
“Do I get a choice?”
“Not really.”Join Midoriya and the recently retired Death, Gami, as they learn to travel hero society together. With some newly acquired powers and a desire to help as many people as possible, Midoriya is ready to dive head first into heroism. But he must first learn how to use his deadly abilities for good, as well as fool everyone else that he does indeed have a quirk.
Basically the Grim Reaper AU that no one asked for. Definitely more of an emotional rollercoaster than I was planning but we're running with it anyway.

Summary
Kintsugi: The Japanese art form of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with gold. It represents the idea that broken doesn't mean unfixable. That even something shattered can be made into a stronger, more beautiful piece of art.
Izuku knows that life will always be unfair to people like him. He knows that he can't bring his mother back from the dead or make his father love him. He knows he's destined for a life of loneliness and pain. Knows that his goal to be a quirkless hero is nearly impossible.
Izuku knows that he's broken.
But can the people that come into his life help put him back together?
Will Izuku let them?Series

Summary
Shouta gripped the phone tight enough to make the phone case groan. “So it’s true. Midoriya was Quirkless.”
“Until soon before the entrance exam,” Nedzu confirmed. “That’s not relevant now, though, because—“
“Relevant?” Shouta hissed. “Midoriya is barely functional, socially. He doesn’t trust any adult. He thinks the whole world hates him. He apologizes for everything except breaking the law, and I’m sure I can trace every single one of those things back to his Quirklessness. You call that irrelevant?”
Aizawa visits Aldera Junior High and finds out some disturbing truths.

better luck next time by nauticalwarrior

25 Dec 2022
Tags
Summary
As he falls, he lets himself think about it. He lets himself think that if he wakes up, if things go back again, it means that he does have a quirk. It means he really can take a swan dive off a roof and hope for better luck in his next life. It means that all along, he’s been useless and worthless because he hasn’t died yet.
He hits the ground.
And then he opens his eyes.

Summary
“Aizawa hates kids,” Jirou remarked. “Why would he take the time to give someone extra training?”
Ashido sighed dramatically, hanging her head. “I don’t know why, I just know that he is! He threw knives at us!”
“He threw knives at you?” Kirishima repeated a bit nervously. Who was this guy, going around flinging knives at people’s heads?
“Not at us,” Sero corrected. “He threw the knives at Aizawa. Then Aizawa told us that he would throw the knives at us next if we didn’t scram.”
“So we scrammed!” Kaminari chimed in brightly.
OR
Aizawa is training someone in secret, and Class 1-A has plenty of theories about what kind of person it might be. Needless to say, a Quirkless kid isn’t the type of guy they’re expecting.
But Izuku is nothing if not a master at subverting expectations.

Complicated Creation by Elemental
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
09 Sep 2020
Tags
Summary
Midoriya Izuku is medically quirkless, not technically homeless, perpetually exhausted and doing his damned best despite it all. He also sees spirits, which might be cool if not for the fact that a) no one else does, b) they really don't like him very much, and c) he's pretty sure the heroes now think he's a villain working for the League.
Aizawa Shota just wants to take down Overhaul, rescue Eri, keep his students alive, get some rest, and find out how this Deku kid knows things he absolutely should not know about his personal life and the Shie Hassaikai case.
Unless Nighteye's right, and the kid really is a villain.

Summary
This is a dream, right? It can’t be anything else. Even if Izuku is so endearing and intelligent and delightful and multifaceted and real that sometimes she weeps at the thought that he doesn’t really exist. Because it just can’t be real life—no matter how fiercely Izuku insists it is.
A girl finds herself in the universe of a shounen manga and, believing everything to be a figment of her imagination, proceeds under the assumption that none of her actions have consequences.
Unfortunately, they do.
