Inheritance of Giants

Izuku Midoriya learned early that the world was stranger than most people admitted. The skies were too loud. The shadows moved wrong. And sometimes cities vanished off the news, only to reappear in whispers and scars.

Kaiju exist - not as legends, but as headline-making, skyline-swallowing facts. A global task force exists to protect the world from them, the SSSP. Their agents are always watching, but rarely seen. Their work is public, but their methods are not. Most civilians are told: if a monster comes and no hero can stop it, pray someone from the Science Patrol is listening.

But the real danger, Izuku realizes, isn't always found in the things that tower above buildings. It's in the people who tower over others. In the way society rewards strength, quirks, and control - and forgets to look back at what was sacrificed to get there. The world is full of ambition dressed as heroism, history turned to smoke, and power built on silence.

And so Izuku holds onto what matters. His mother. His home. Because in a world that forgets too much, the only way to live is to remember the ones you can't afford to lose - even if the world says they were never there.
