Who is Izuku Midoriya?

Izuku Midoriya, known as Deku, is a boy born without superpowers in a world where most people have one, and who inherits the power of the greatest hero, All Might. Kōhei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia began in Weekly Shōnen Jump in 2014 and ran until 2024, and it blends Japanese school stories with American superhero comics, which helps explain its large following in the United States. Deku's appeal is effort: he studies heroes obsessively, fills notebooks with analysis and gets hurt learning to control a power too strong for his body. Daiki Yamashita voices him in Japanese and Justin Briner in English. His green costume, red shoes and messy green hair are the design fans wear.
