Toshiro Midoriya

**Toshiro Midoriya** (緑 (みどり) 谷 (や) 十 (とう) 士 (し) 狼 (ろう)  *Midoriya Tōshirō*) is a second year student at U.A. High School currently training to become a Pro Hero in the future. He is also the eldest son of Izuku, better known as Deku, and Ochaco, better known as Uravity.

Due to self-esteem problems, he presents himself as **Toshiro Uraraka** (麗 (うらら) 日 (か) 十 (とう) 士 (し) 郎 (ろう)  *Uraraka Tōshirō*), making people not recognize him as Deku's son.

## Appearance

Toshiro has an average height but is shortest among his acquaintances (except for Hitoka Midoriya and Shizuka Kaminari); besides that, he has a quite muscular build and is somewhat strong. Toshiro has short, brown hair with relatively long bangs that cover his deep, green eyes. He is usually with a neutral almost bored expression.

## Personality

Toshiro is a quiet, somewhat timid person who has difficulties with sociability; he cannot talk with new people that easily and is constantly pushed by Arisu to put aside his shyness and negative thoughts, but is not that easy for him to forget it. He clearly has some self-esteem problems that is implied to be Hitoka's fault, due to her talent and heritage of One For All. He does not believe in his own abilities even if he is strong enough to win against many villains alone. He just thinks that he is not enough and doesn't deserve to be part of the Midoriya family, and that is why he hides the fact that he is, indeed, his son and uses his mother's unknown last name instead of his true surname.

Although Toshiro is reclusive and closed with people that he doesn't know or do not trusts, he presents a very different behavior with people that he truly likes, just like Arisu or her little sister, even if he is jealous of her talent. He is very gentle and kind and does not have any evil desires, he just want to be like any other person and make people trust him like they trust in his father to save the day. Even with more arrogant or antisocial people, such like Hibiki Bakugo, he does not abandon his calm and polite manners.

## Synopsis

Toshiro entered the living room of the Class 2-A building in Heights Alliance, finding Arisu Todoroki there. He asks what she was doing and she just responds that she was trying to draw the landscape outside by pointing to the window. Arisu pointed out that he had arrived early for someone doing internships with Mirio Togata. Toshiro replies that Mirio had sent him away to rest after he had arrested a villain with a quirk that transformed his body hair rigid; he was wounded up in the process, but nothing so serious, showing Arisu his arm with some bandages.

As soon as she saw Toshiro's bandages, Arisu quickly stepped off the couch where she was sitting, setting aside her draw, and groping Toshiro's body for any injuries. She complained that he was too careless and hurt whenever he went off duty. He, in turn, told her to relax, reminding her who his father was, but Arisu replied that he and his father were both crazy and thanked that Shoto Todoroki, her father, always kept him (Izuku Midoriya) in line, commenting that in extreme cases, trigger the Momo Todoroki security level. They both laughed at the mention of her.

### Arisu Todoroki

Arisu and Toshiro are childhood friends and classmates; as they study together, they are also in the same building as the Heights Alliance and their internships are also considerably close together. Although Arisu often worries about the times he gets hurt from his internship tasks with Mirio Togata, Toshiro doesn't care so much about it and ends up acting arrogantly reminding her that he is the son of Izuku Midoriya, or Deku.

## Trivia

* His name has the ideograms for "green" (緑), "valley" (谷), "ten" (十), "chief, gentleman, samurai, warrior" (士) and "wolf" (狼).
	+ He was supposed to be the tenth One For All wielder (that is why his name has "ten" in the composition), but since he was born with a quirk–something that did not happen with Hitoka, he did not receive it from his father.
