* AdaptationalJerkass: All Might is revealed to have [[spoiler: cheated on Inko in the past]] and has been an absent father for six years after he stopped having a good reason. He is also a huge asshole throughout the story.
** Inko also [[spoiler: cheated on All Might]].

Further complicating things is that a blood test meant to determine Izuku's parentage ends up being inconclusive, due to Izuku's DNA containing genetic markers from every person he's taken Quirks from, of which there are several-dozen.]]

* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: All for One paints Yoichi as naively idealistic, hating him for using his Quirk to protect metahumans, not caring that the quirkless were murdering metahumans left and right with the authorities not helping, even encouraging the slaughters. To the point Yoichi sold out his organisation, leading to the death of All for One's friends, wife and child. That said, we only have All for One's word for it.

* DePower: A lot of Quirk users voluntarily give up their Quirks to Izuku for various reasons such as the Quirk being highly inconvenient to, in at least one case, to throw law enforcement of their trail.
** [[spoiler: In the process of his vigilante activities, Izuku takes the Quirks of Endeavor, to punish him for his abuse of his family, and Dabi, whose usage of his Quirk was gradually killing him. He also goes on to take Himiko Toga's Quirk, due to it causing her issues with her addiction to blood.]]

* ForWantOfANail: Instead of being Quirkless, Izuku is the son of All Might, with the coincidental combination of All Might and Inko's Quirks giving rise to a Quirk that is functionally similar to All For One, which causes several major changes to the plot.
** Izuku's first accidental use of his Quirk results in him taking Katsuki's Quirk, rendering Katsuki Quirkless, which results in Katsuki aiming to become the first Quirkless pro-hero.
** Izuku winds up accidentally killing the Sludge Villain, due to taking his Quirk while his body was scattered, which results in Izuku getting arrested for vigilantism, by his own father no less, and sent to prison, where he's subsequently broken out by All For One, with Izuku coming to the conclusion that All For One is his actual father, due to the similarities between their Quirks.
** Instead of training to receive One For All and enter U.A. through the regular exam, Izuku instead becomes a vigilante and seeks to enter U.A. through the Vigilante Rehabilitation Program.
** In the process of his vigilante activities, Izuku winds up destroying several villainous organizations, [[spoiler: including the Shie Hassaikai, which results in Eri being rescued before Izuku even comes to U.A.]]
** To help Izuku succeed as a vigilante, All For One [[spoiler: reveals that he's still alive to All Might well ahead of canon, and subsequently plans an attack on All Might at a charity event specifically for Izuku to thwart, so that Izuku can firm up his public support by standing up to his father, while simultaneously creating the impression that Izuku is severing ties with him.]]
* HiddenInPlainSight: One of Izuku's favorite Quirks is Chair, a Quirk that allows him to...turn himself into a chair. It actually proves quite useful, as Izuku can alter his appearance to blend in with the furniture of wherever he happens to be, which causes the Quirk to be extremely useful for hiding and eavesdropping.

** All for One ends up taking All Might's son under his wing and bonds with him as a father figure. Aside from the role-reversal of canon, All for One would adore the opportunity to do this to torment All Might, but his bonding with Izuku is genuine and he has no knowledge of Izuku's parentage.

* SmashCut: Izuku is introduced to Melissa Shield, [[spoiler: who might be his half-sister via All Might and David (David is trans). Upon meeting her, Izuku attempts to explain how they might or might not be related, which only serves to confuse her as he explains his family situation (four different father-figures, two adopted siblings, and Melissa herself)]]. The scene then immediately jumps to Melissa having made a diagram on a whiteboard in an attempt to make sense of everything.

* CallingTheOldManOut: When Izuku finally speaks with All Might again after [[spoiler: getting into U.A. as part of the vigilante rehabilitation program, Izuku viciously rebuffs All Might’s attempts to justify what he did, by pointing out that several heroes have children whom might be targeted by their enemies, and that there are systems in place to help mitigate that risk, which All Might didn’t take advantage of in favor of just up and leaving.

*InSpiteOfANail:
** Despite having been accidentally rendered Quirkless by Izuku’s Quirk, Katsuki is still Izuku’s bully, due to him playing up his victimhood and capitalizing on the prejudice the teachers have against Izuku’s “villainous” Quirk, allowing him to beat Izuku, while Izuku is unable to fight back without getting expelled as a consequence.
** Izuku’s conversation with All Might on the rooftop still takes place, with All Might telling Izuku that he can’t become a hero, though, in this case, it’s because he thinks that someone who’s unwilling to use their Quirk would not be able to accomplish anything.



* PersonOfMassDestruction: All For One and All Might are this, as per canon. But Izuku also qualifies, due to possessing dozens of Quirks that, while individually weak, can be used in devastating combination with one another. One notable example is a Quirk that allows Izuku to shoot EyeBeams, which he can combine with a Quirk that allows him to create an [[FacelessEye eye in the sky]], which he then combines with a Quirk that creates ExtraEyes, which he ''then'' combines with a Quirk that allows him to transform his eyes into [[AnimalEyes the compound eyes of an insect]], allowing him to create a [[BeamSpam beam spamming]] KillSat, which is capable of decimating a small city…and that’s just ''one'' combination Izuku has come up with so far.



* SuperpowerLottery: Izuku is a clear winner since his ability to take Quirks from a distance caused All for One to treat him as a potential threat before they came to the wrong conclusion they are family.
