OtapediaIzuku Midoriya (Deku) Plushies My Hero Academia - Merchandise

My Hero Academia is an incredibly popular manga and anime series that was originally written and illustrated by Kohei Horikoshi. After the manga had found a great amount of success amongst its readers, an anime adaptation produced by studio Bones was announced and began airing in 2016. Since then, the anime series has had a total of four seasons, two theatrically released movies, and a number of OVAs (original video animations). The success of both the anime and manga has also led to a wide range of merchandise inspired by the series to be created. Due to its large and diverse cast of characters, character-based items like figures often sell incredibly well. Another type of merchandise that also does well, however, are plushies. While there are a number of different plushies that recreate the likenesses of several of its popular characters, the lovable protagonist Izuku Midoriya (also called by his nickname/hero name, Deku) has quite a selection to choose from in terms of plushies. The top 3 Deku plushies have been selected and will be showcased below. These plushies are the “My Hero Academia Midoriya Plush”, the “My Hero Academia 5” Plush”, and the “Mochibi My Hero Academia Izuku Midoriya: Hero Costume Plush”.

My Hero Academia Midoriya Plush

This plushie manufactured by Great Eastern Entertainment features Izuku Midoriya in his classic hero costume, which is mainly colored a bright turquoise with white accents along the sides. In this plushie, Deku also wears a pair of white gloves, a red utility belt, a silver respirator that he wears around his neck, and the same pair of red shoes that he wears no matter where he goes. Aside from the outfit, this plushie features Deku’s characteristic green hair and black freckles, as well as a pair of big, bright eyes and a beaming, happy smile that show off his endearing, cheerful personality. Although this plushie can make a great addition to any other collection of My Hero Academia plushies, its soft, squishy texture can allow its user to bend its arms and legs around, making it an adorable plushie doll as well.

My Hero Academia 5” Midoriya Plush

This plushie is also made by Great Eastern Entertainment and is very similar to the previous plushie, but comes in a smaller size and has a keychain attached to it. Features like Deku’s turquoise hero costume, red utility belt and shoes, and silver respirator all appear just like they did, though there are some aspects of this figure that separate it from its larger counterpart. One of the most notable differences this figure has come from the face. Although the previous figure featured Deku’s green eyes and eyebrows and had a cheerful, open-mouth smile, this figure simply turns his eyes and eyebrows black while Deku flashes a close-mouthed, yet still cheerful smile. His eyebrows are also slanted, giving him a confident and determined look. The lobster clasp on this plushie also allows it to be used as a large charm for a backpack, though it could simply be used as a simple decoration as well.

Mochibi My Hero Academia Izuku Midoriya: Hero Costume Plush

This plushie changes things up by taking many features from Deku’s character and turning them into an adorable, round plushie. Like the previous plushies, this item has Deku in his blue-green hero outfit with his red utility belt and shoes, though most details of the outfit are lost in the rather simplistic art style of this line of plushies. That said, some of the finer details like his metal respirator are still present. This plushie is shaped much like a cylinder, where Deku’s face is on one end while the rest of his body takes up the rest. The cute, yet simplistic art style recreates many parts of Deku’s design like his green hair and eyes, black freckles, and his friendly smile. The shape of this plushie also allows its owner to stack it on top of other My Hero Academia plushies from the same line, making an adorable pyramid of cute plushies inspired by characters from the series.

About Plushies

The term “plushies” often refers to decorations or toys that are made with a soft, squishy type of fabric that gives it a cuddly feel. Many plushies, like those mentioned above, are based on specific characters from a series, though this is not always the case. Plushies have a wide range of uses as well and can be used as anything from simple decorations and charms to attach to one’s backpack to things like pillows and toys for a younger audience. The use of a given plushie often depends on the plushie’s shape. Manufacturers will sometimes also create a collection of plushies of characters from a given series and release them at once. This allows customers to pick and choose which specific characters they want while the more avid collectors can purchase the whole set at once.
