Izuku's Relationship with the Quirk
Despite having a father with a powerful fire-based quirk and a mother with a minor telekinetic ability, Izuku Midoriya was born without a quirk. This was a significant point of distress for young Izuku, who dreamed of becoming a hero.
Interestingly, as a small child, Izuku was seen trying to breathe fire himself, mimicking his father's quirk. However, these attempts were to no avail, as he simply did not inherit the Fire Breath quirk or any other supernatural ability. This reality underscored his initial journey as a quirkless individual in a superpowered society.
