When they introduce Deku as a kid in a world with superpowers who desperately wants to help people, I really wondered what he was going to end up becoming to make up for the fact that he had no powers. In my mind the worst case scenario would be him having some latent OP powers, and it turns out to kind of go down that route when he gets his powers from the #1 hero of all time.
In my mind it would have been much more interesting and empowering if Deku never got powers and his struggle was figuring out human/ingenious ways to keep up with the superpowered people around him. AKA he would be the ultimate underdog. Instead he's got the most OP shit ever and yeah sure it sometimes hurts him to use it and "this time im serious if you push it again your bones will break and im not healing you again OK no THIS time if you push it again..." but I really thought they could have done more with him.
TL;DR I thought it would be better as a Batman origin story not a Superman origin story.
