One thing I really adore about the BNHA fandom (from what I’ve seen, I’m new here) is that they remember that Deku is strong even if he’s small.
I remember being in fandoms where small characters were immediately wilted down (particularly in yaoi pairings) even if in their respective series, they were strong as hell.
Deku did a ton of strength training and continues to do so throughout the series. This was before getting One For All, too, so I really appreciate when fic writers remember that he’s strong. Like this is the kid who raced through a forest with two broken arms. Just because you write him as a bottom doesn’t mean he’s weak, it just means he’s on the bottom. He can still punch out a robot and bounce off of walls with ease. And from the fics I’ve read writers remember that, which is awesome.
Basically thank you for treating Izuku Midoriya like the strong person he is even if he’s small.

Like just because Deku’s nice doesn’t make him a doormat. Just because he’s small doesn’t mean he can’t punch a wall.

im curious as to where you found these people because every second post I find in this fandom makes Deku out to be some weak, meek doormat.
