Deku is a character I always resonated with as a autistic person. And is a character who I will always defend
The first thing that resonates with me is his awkwardness and hyper fixation with superheroes. Story of my life lol
Another thing I wanted to point out is I know he’s canonically not autistic Because that’s not what the author attended. My point is that there is traits in him that resonate with me as an autistic person
The second thing that resonates with me is how far behind everyone else. Im 19 and still in the special needs program for education. So when he finally cashes up and learns and improves, I get excited. And in the beginning, when all might saw something in him and knew he had potential then got proud of him every time he learns and improves is something I love. I’m lucky that my family are like that as well.
Anyway, he might not be everyone’s favorite MC but he’s a character that means a lot to me because I see myself in him
