Which My Hero Academia Character Are You?

In a world where most people are born with a superpower, Izuku Midoriya was born with nothing. My Hero Academia starts right there, with a kid who fills notebook after notebook with hero analysis and gets told, over and over, that he can't be a hero. Then All Might, the greatest hero alive, looks at him and says he can. The manga wrapped up in 2024 and the anime aired its final season in late 2025, so this is a great moment to look back at Class 1A and figure out where you'd sit in that classroom.

Starting From Zero

Izuku, better known as Deku, inherits All Might's power and spends most of the series learning how not to break his own bones using it. He mumbles to himself when he's thinking, cries constantly and runs toward danger without a second thought. Deku types are analytical, deeply kind and willing to throw themselves at a problem until it gives in.

Explosions and Ice

Katsuki Bakugo is Deku's childhood friend turned rival, and for a long time he's honestly kind of awful to him. He shoots explosions from his palms, yells most of his lines and wants to be number one more than he wants anything else. His growth over the series, including finally owning up to how he treated Deku, is one of its best threads. Bakugo types are competitive, talented and loud, with a loyal streak they rarely show.

Shoto Todoroki can make ice with one side of his body and fire with the other. He enters the school refusing to use the fire half, because it came from his father, the hero Endeavor. He's calm, a bit awkward and accidentally hilarious, and his love of cold soba became a fan joke. Todoroki types keep their cool under pressure and are slowly learning to accept every part of themselves.

Gravity and Rules

Ochaco Uraraka can make anything float by touching it with her fingertips. She wants to become a pro hero partly so she can help her parents, who run a struggling construction business, and that grounded goal makes her one of the most relatable characters in the cast. Uraraka types are warm, cheerful and tougher than they look.

Tenya Iida is the class president, the student with engines in his calves and the person most likely to chop the air with his hand while explaining a school rule. He takes everything seriously, from the hallway speed limit to his family's hero legacy. Iida types are responsible, organized and much more caring than their formal manner suggests.

The Symbol of Peace

All Might is the reason most of these kids wanted to be heroes in the first place. He arrives with a booming "I am here!" and a smile that never cracks in public. In private, he's thin, injured and running out of time, and he chooses to spend that time teaching. All Might types are natural mentors who stay positive for everyone else, even when they're carrying something heavy.

Go Beyond

The school motto at U.A. is Plus Ultra, which roughly means going beyond your limits. Every character in this lineup does that in a different way. Deku studies, Bakugo competes, Todoroki confronts his past, Uraraka works for her family, Iida holds himself to his rules and All Might keeps showing up long after his body says stop.

The questions ahead ask about your first day at hero school, how you bounce back from failure, what power you'd pick and what role you play on a team. There are no wrong answers, and there's no quirk test at the end either.
