Voices of the Dead (Schizophrenia Quirk/Street Fighter AU) Slightly unhinged Izuku will forever be my favorite interpretation of him.

I still think it's really crazy that Horikoshi did Midoriya so dirty by having him murder the boy he wanted to save, and, now that he's lost his Quirk, is stuck being lonely for like eight years feeling like a husk of his former self, only feeling like himself again when he gets an Iron Man suit. I'm not a big Dekuhead, but I'm asking around to see what Deku fans think of the writer's choices concerning his conclusion. I'd love to hear your thoughts!! did you like this? did you not? why? etc
as a dekuhead, i agree that killing shigaraki was confusing and i still don't know what the thought process is behind that. like, saving him has always been deku's plan and everything was pointing towards shigaraki rehabilitation but then ... we didn't get it???
so yes, shigaraki should have lived (it aligns with deku's goals and the narrative's goals) and toga also should have lived for similar reasons. i also agree that deku's conclusion should have been expanded upon more — i really wanted to see how killing shigaraki, losing his quirk, etc. truly affected deku, and we were kinda left hanging. but also i sorta just equate that with lack of time / horikoshi being rushed to finish his manga
but i fundamentally disagree with the rest of your ask. it feels like you've developed this opinion based on the 430 leaks and not the actual official chapter; it's just misleading. which i don't blame you for, because the mha leaks scene is fucking awful and has ruined an entire reader base's reading comprehension, which has consequently been perpetuated by the fandom
#you make so many good points here#I ususally dont reblog stuff but here I am#I love people who understand Deku's character#dont get me wrong I still love those angsty fics but the amount of people who confuse it with canon is frustrating#people have to understand Deku is basically working at the Harvard for superpowered people#I heavily doubt UA underpays its teachers Deku is NOT struggling lmao
Villain/AFO Izuku AU (ft. Villain Denki)
And yes, I'm giving Izuku an actual design instead of the suit/vest trope. I'll probably still include it sometimes it's just not very practical. Also, as much as I love sadistic Izuku AUs this will probably be leaning towards a calculated and meticulous part of him. I just find it much easier to keep him more in character that way (at least as much as he can be as a villain). It's also super fun to write.
