I feel like the main problem about Midoriya is he's literally treated as play dough. He's still playdough but like he's changed so easily and tainted so easily. He's molded to what they currently need or want for the story to progress. I would blame All Might since he's all about being kind and never really told Midoriya that Bakugo treated him horribly, but basically everyone sucks to him. No one really snapped him out of his admiration for Bakugo and Shoto never got mad at Midoriya for telling him he can probably forgive his father because he's kind.
No one ever tried to truly help Midoriya either, specifically his mental health, it got worse through the rundown of the show which twisted his view so badly, he believes that anyone trying deserves better despite not having faced the consequences of their actions, examples are Bakugo and Endeavor. He even managed to defend these guys like huh??
Also, I thought he was supposed to be more sympathetic and empathetic to the villains, but all he's tried is to change them, never understand them. If he understood them, then he wouldn't feel the need to change them since that choice is up to them, not him.
If Midoriya truly were empathetic, he'd suggest to Shoto to forgive his father, not to repair their relationship, but for him to move on with a lighter heart. If he really was empathetic, he would've understood Kota and never tried changing his mind, just supporting the kid because he obviously needed one. If he was empathetic, he wouldn't want Eri near her abuser. If he were empathetic, he would've gotten mad at the HSPC and Lady Nagant as well as different kinds of heroes for putting them in situations like that. He would've defended people mocked by Bakugo because he knows what that feels like. He would've immediately tried joining Uraraka with Quirk counciling as it's similar to Shigaraki's problem. And he would've cried with Uraraka during her breakdown and made sure everyone was okay after the war.
He supposedly cares a lot about other people but when it comes to the victim of a bad person trying to be good, it gets thrown out the window. And he was supposed to care more about himself in the end, why couldn't he cut Bakugo off? He should've realized that he was a piece of shit and kept a professional relationship with him but no.
Also for Bakugo's end, If he really felt sorry and didn't want to get in Midoriya's way, he would've left UA like Aoyoma.
I love him so much but I really hate that he's basically a doormat placed wherever he is convenient.
