Trivia / Mischief (MHA)

• Ascended Fanon: KageNekem has no problem incorporating ideas from his readers into the story.
  • Tenko's official hero name after the I-Island arc, Cheat Code, was an idea from reader Magnus_616. According to the author, up until that point he had several ideas for Tenko's possible name, but it wasn't until Magnus' suggestion that he decided to make it official. Later, on Chapter 66, for the bonding moment between Kyoka, Momo and Shoto, KageNekem liked the suggestion for the song the trio to be listening being "Africa" by Toto, and promptly linked it days after the chapter was released.
  • Most of the opening dialogue from Chapter 60, when Izuku reveals his alien status to his classmates and teachers, was based of off this post, by reader Stormbreaker42. In fact, several dialogue ideas from the reviewer made into the story, such as Bakugo and Groot's argument in Chapter 63, Thor and Aizawa's talk in Chapter 66 and the students discussion about Santa Claus being Real After All in Chapter 68.
• Creator's Favorite: When asked about his favorite characters to write about, KageNekem had a very elaborate response: Izuku, due to him being a trickster smartass; Loki, whom KageNekem has been a fan since the first time he watched Thor and all the foreshadowing and double entendres he allows Kage to write; Eri, because Eri trolling people is adorable; Hirona, whom he is particularly proud of and Tenko, even if it is a pain to search for gamer lingo for all his dialogue.
• Hypothetical Casting:
  • When asked about his choice for Hirona's hypothetical voice actress, KageNekem's personal choice were Chiwa Saitō for Japanese, and Ashley Johnson for English, saying both manage pull dark and tragic characters but also manage to be excitable and funny.
  • Later on, when questioned over possible voice actors for Daken, KageNekem liked the suggestions of Akira Ishida for Japanese and Ray Chase for English, saying Chase has the disturbed young man voice down pact while also having the range to make himself sound either darker, or more innocent, something Daken needs as he constantly manipulates people.
• Meaningful Release Date:
  • The first chapter of the story was released on April's Fools, 2022, fitting for the story's mischievous theme.
  • Chapter 65 was released November 17, 2023, one week after the Loki (2021) Season 2 finale.
• Trolling Creator: While clarifying who won the fight between Thirteen (the hero) and Thirteen (Izuku's clone), KageNekem said the winner was Thirteen.
• What Could Have Been:
  • The events of the I-Island arc were originally going to be told in flashbacks during meetings with Hound Dog, each scene being told from a different character's point of view, before the author ditched the idea.
  • Reiko Yanagi and Twice were candidates for the mantle of Moon Knight before KageNekem settled with Fumikage.
  • Amongst the story's original ideas was Izuku becoming Doctor Strange's apprentice, but the author dropped it because of how limitless Strange's power set is. Their Wizard Duel in Chapter 62, however, incorporates elements from this idea.
  • All Might and Thor's fight was supposed to happen after Izuku and Denki's match at the Sports Festival, but KageNekem decided to delay it to the Final Exams to not overshadow the kids.
  • There wasn't going to be an actual villain attack during the Trainning Camp arc. The kids were supposed to have an ordinary Summer camp, and when the time for the test of courage to happen, a interweave of scenes with villains seemingly getting ready to attack at any second but eveytime it seemed like it would be the case, it would just be a hero kid.
• Word of God:
  • Izuku's "Quirk" is officially listed as "Chaos Sorcery", while Hirona's is titled "Force Field Manipulation".
  • KageNekem ended up liking Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 so much that it prompted him to change pretty much all of the story's outline, starting with a rewrite of the ending for I-Island, to the Trainning Camp, Kamino, the Shie Hassaikai and making several changes for the Invasion of Asgard.
