Hisashi Midoriya

**Hisashi Midoriya** (緑 (みどり) 谷 (や) 久 (ひさし) , *Midoriya Hisashi*?)

### **Description**

Hisashi, the father of Izuku Midoriya and loving husband to Inko Midoriya, has always been a dedicated supporter of heroes.

From a young age, much like his son, he was captivated by the world of heroes and idolized their courage and strength. However, Hisashi faced a different reality as an asthmatic with a fire breath quirk. For reasons unknown, he discovered that smoking had an unexpected curative effect on his asthma, seemingly related to his fire breathing ability. This revelation allowed him to manage his condition effectively and pursue a different career path, leaving behind his dreams of becoming a hero.

To provide better support for his family, Hisashi made the challenging choice to move to America, where he found work as a businessman.

Although he had no formal training or prior experience as a hero, Hisashi has recently found a way to channel his admiration for heroism by taking on the role of a vigilante. Balancing his daytime job with his vigilante activities, Hisashi manages his asthma carefully, ensuring he can contribute to the safety of others while maintaining his own well-being.

While living in America, Hisashi has made sporadic visits home throughout the years, although his visits have become less frequent. Recently, he only made it back for New Year's celebrations. During one of these visits, Hisashi learned that Izuku had been training to enter U.A. High School's hero course. Seizing the opportunity, he took Izuku aside and shared valuable advice: to find happiness, Izuku must first accept and embrace himself for who he is.

Upon discovering that Izuku not only gained admission to the hero course but also manifested a quirk, Hisashi's joy knew no bounds. As a devoted fan and proud father, he founded and presides over the unofficial American branch of the Deku fan club. Hisashi avidly keeps up with the happenings at U.A. High School, eagerly watching every video and update released by the school. His enthusiasm for his son's heroic journey is evident in the increased volume of emails and fanmail he sends, even if it means waiting a bit longer for Izuku's responses.

Hisashi made surprise trips back home to Japan when Izuku completed his first and second years at U.A. While initially slightly awkward due to the knowledge that Hisashi had been closely following Izuku's heroic endeavors, their reunions quickly blossomed into warm and gratifying moments. Hisashi's unwavering support and pride in his son's achievements were met with Izuku's humble gratitude and newfound confidence.

Despite the distance that separates them, Hisashi longs to spend more time with Inko and Izuku. Recognizing the positive impact his son's work studies have had on their financial situation, Hisashi has been sending money to Inko regularly. With the family's improved circumstances, Hisashi is contemplating the idea of moving back to Japan to be closer to his loved ones and actively participate in their lives once again.
