About Quirkless AU
A My Hero Academia alternate universe where Izuku Midoriya never receives One For All — or where quirks don't exist at all. Quirkless Deku fics explore heroism without power: vigilante arcs, support-gear genius routes, and stories about worth in a society that measures it in abilities.
Canon's premise is that Deku gets the power; the AU asks the sharper question of who he is without it, and the answer — still a hero — is the point fans keep coming back to prove.
Common scenarios: A quirkless Izuku becoming an underground vigilante with nothing but analysis and salvaged gear, or earning a support-course spot at U.A. and outbuilding everyone.
