Izuku Shigaraki (死柄木出久, Shigaraki Izuku), real name Izuku Midoriya (緑谷出久), is a villain from the Mirror Universe, the acting leader of that world's League of Villains, and an alternate universe version of Deku.

He, alongside the alternate All for One, are main antagonist of the Mirror Universe Saga.

Appearance
Izuku Shigaraki has the same physical features as his prime universe counterpart.

When he's not fighting he tends to wear black dress pants, a white long sleeved shirt, usually with a black tie, and either a black jacket or a black vest.

Abilities
Keen Intellect: much like his counterpart, Izuku is exceptionally intelligent and resourceful. He is brilliant at observing and analyzing his opponent and formulating strategies. He is good at coming up with creative ways to utilize his quirks and exploit weaknesses.

Quirks
All for One ( オール・フォー・ワン Ōru Fō Wan): allows him to steal other people's quirks and render them his own.
 * Explosion ( 爆破 Bakuha) : a quirk stolen from his world's Katsuki Bakugo. This is one of Izuku's favorite quirks both because of it's incredible destructive power and versatility, but also because it's a reminder of his victory over his childhood bully.
 * Engine( エンジン Enjin ): a quirk stolen from his worlds Tensei Iida.
 * Springlike Limbs: enhances his physical prowess and agility, it can be used
 * Air Cannon: a quirk given by All for One, provides Izuku with an answer to his counterparts air pressure attacks.

Personality
Izuku Shigaraki is a vindictive and calculating boy. Due to being bullied since childhood for being born without a quirk, Izuku developed an intense hatred for the society in which he was born and he eventually grew to hate the heroes who upheld that society.

Izuku is also very dilligent and strong willed. His dream of becoming a hero drove him to develop a habit of writing down notes about everything he knows in regards to their quirks. He continued this practice long after he gave up on becoming a hero and even after becoming a villain. Because of this practice Izuku has developed a great analytical mind and is easily able to form complex battle plans in a matter of seconds, taking advantage of his allies and enemies quirks to put them in motion. Izuku externalizes his observations through endless mumbling, a habit which annoys or scares his henchmen but which they never mention to him.

Izuku started out idolizing All Might just like Bakugo, but as time went on and Izuku was tortured by Bakugo and his freinds, Izuku identified more and more with the criminals who All Might beat up and sent to jail. He began to see the world as operating in terms of "might makes right" and heroes as only being considered that because they won.

In terms of henchmen, Izuku mainly trusts people who were born quirkless or had useless/weird quirks until Izuku gave them cool quirks.

No matter how many people Izuku hurts, maims, tortures, kidnaps, steals from, and abuses Izuku will stubbornly insist on seeing himself as being the real victim or else always viewing himself as the nerdy underdog.

Izuku Midoriya
Izuku Shigaraki refers to himself as Alpha Izuku and the counterpart as Beta Izuku.
