So, what if Mic’s quirk gives him an insane amount of control over his voice? Not only volume, but he can also alter sound frequences and tones, and therefore he’s capable of imitating other people’s voices pretty well? It’s not as perfect as the result you’d get with Shinsou’s device, but he’s definitely GOOD at it.
So, naturally he’d be the one to help and teach Shinsou how to use the support item ♫✨ I like to think that this is how it went down
Today, Hori shares an interesting fact through his author’s note:
The poem is called Ame ni mo Makezu in Japan, written by Japanese poet Kenji Miyazawa, and it is a very famous poem. The verse Horikoshi is referring to is [ミンナニデクノボートヨバレ] (originally written in katakana) or “minna ni deku-no-bō to yobare”. Translated straight, means “Called useless by all.”
I’ve always wondered why Izuku never really gets credit or widespread acknowledgement whenever he wins villain fights, of how he doesn’t seem to be known more than being ‘the boy who broke his bones during the U.A. Sports Festival.’ The shared victory against Stain was credited to Endeavor, his personal fight against Overhaul was never televised, and his defeat of Gentle Criminal was never relayed to his classmates.
Even now, he’s known as ‘the cryptid who saves people.’ In the span of the entire manga, Deku never really sought popularity nor money. The closest he did this was when he was told by All Might to announce his presence to the world via the Sports Festival, but even then, he prioritized saving his classmate over winning and wasn’t recognized for his previous victories. He didn’t even receive a single internship offer aside from Gran Torino. Plus, Deku doesn’t exude a natural charm when it comes to scripted interviews.
The poem:
The poem illustrates a person who lives simply, who helps those who are in need of help, and doesn’t get praise for it (nor desires to be praised.) So aside from it’s other meaning ‘dekiru’ or ‘I can do it!’, Deku as a hero name means that he doesn’t seek credit for doing what should come naturally.
But since Izuku choosing it for a hero name is yet another statement: he still hopes to become someone that everyone aspires to. That is, by asking people to call him Deku, he becomes a ‘No One who can save everyone.’
And that is the theme of BnHA. Izuku is supposed to symbolize the turning point, the revolution against the broken Hero Society, the society which is built upon the self-interests of “Heroes” barring a few. Izuku choosing Deku as a name means to impart that anyone who ‘helps/reaches out a hand to those who needed saving without expecting anything in return’ is already a hero.

hope is a skill
I read your meta posts about Izuku and I loved them! Do you do manga spoilers and if so, any thoughts on 322?
You've heard of white-pupiled Izuku. Now get ready for...
White-eyed Zombie Izuku.
Such a haunting look. 10/10 would cosplay for Halloween. Along with a tattered hero costume.
hoping that you’re thinking of me by awake atnight
I’m writing this because I can’t help what my heart longs for.
A cramp shoots through his hand and Hitoshi drops his pen. Grimacing, he tries to soothe the throbbing pain by rubbing circles into his hand. He’d gone through about a page and a half, and that one half of non-writing were the practice equations he was attempting before all of this.
Dear Midoriya, it starts, and the rest is an utter word vomit of venting about feelings and fighting and Hitoshi’s fucked up self doubt, and most importantly a—a—
Hitoshi squeezes his eyes shut and pinches the bridge of his nose.
He wrote a confession letter. - Hitoshi, stressed out by exams and also new found romantic feelings, writes a love letter that no one else will see.
Someone ends up seeing it.

CHILD OF THE STARS
This gotta be one of my faves for the Jolly Duck Club market!
🌻3 in/7,5 cm charm with Gold Hot Stamp stars at the front!
The collector is just too cute and I wanted to give them a more harlequin sleepy vibes. He is just too fun to draw💖💖
