★ - Izuku Midoriya.

Izuku Midoriya, also known as Deku, is the main protagonist of the manga and anime series My Hero Academia.

Even though Izuku was born without a gift, he managed to catch the attention of the legendary hero All Might and has since become his close student, as well as a student of Class 1-A at the UA Academy. All Might transferred his gift to Izuku, making him the ninth and current user of One For All.

After the Paranormal Liberation War, with Tomura Shigaraki and All For One actively targeting him for his Quirk, he decided to leave UA before finishing his first year to keep his classmates out of danger.

After encouragement and support from his friends, he returns to school and leads the heroes against the villains in a desperate final battle to save the world.

Izuku Midoriya is a 16-year-old teenager of medium height, he has freckles, messy hair, and in the colored illustrations of the manga, he and eyes are also teal, while in the anime they are dark mint green. He is slim but has a toned body thanks to his training with All Might. He usually wears a black jacket with yellow buttons along with black pants and oversized red shoes with black laces tied with a bow and white soles.

Izuku is a polite and calm young man. In addition to this, when he was younger he used to be very shy due to being constantly bullied since childhood for being born without a Quirk, especially in front of Katsuki Bakugo. Initially he is shown as an insecure, reserved and unexpressive person. However, after being accepted into the UA Academy and facing Bakugo during combat training, he has become more confident and brave, to the point of developing leadership skills.
