Isn't this literally the plot of the gameboy game?

Honestly I always thought Midoryia and Pit were pretty similar in the context of their respective series.
- Both started out with a huge setback (Quirkless/Unable to fly by himself)
- Both are mentees for the highest rank whom they also idolize (All Might/Palutena)
- Both have lovable and dorky moments
- Both are often teased and bullied (Although with Midoryia it was mainly Bakugou while Pit was teased by literally everyone in the game)
- Hell, even their English voices sound rather similar to each other.
