Hello Again everyone, I thought I would make a very special article that peeks my own opinion on Izuku Midoriya aka Deku, one of the Main Protagonists of the Superhero franchise My Hero Academia!
After reading some chapters and watching the Anime, It has me believe that Izuku could in fact be the first Anime Superhero in-Training who has High-Functioning Autisim.
So here are my guesses and opinoins regarding and describing his Personality..
- Hero Special Interest/Subcategory: All Might special interest meltdowns where he hits himself and cries (All Might is huge help during these, more on this later.)
- Stims include: rocking, working out, muttering, watching heroes, interactions with girls and others
- Hyper-empathy!
- Good With Patterns!
- Bad with unexpected touches
- Bullied since childhood (also because he was born without powers)
- Strong sense of right vs wrong, bad with the grey areas, Awkward in social situations!
- Clothing is somtimes often mismatched or worn wrong
- Becomes Inspired and Encouraged by the Good People in his life
- writes Notebooks about His Favorite Heroes, including notes about his Classmates, special traits and Quirks
Izuku also acts nervous socially with others from the start, and is Awkwardly shy talking to Girls (mainly love interest Ochako Uraraka for example) but slowly accepts these new changes.
Makes me believe Kohei Horikoshi made Izuku a Very Special Hero who always has Heart, needs support and Never gives up on his Dreams and Friends no matter how many times he loses focus or loses some battles.
I would love to wish Kohei Horikoshi (if he reads this too) the best of Luck with what he’ll do next for these Amazing Characters….
Remember this is only my opinion and guesses.
