In my opinion from reading the manga and watching the anime:

Izuku Midoriya does not have romantic feelings for anyone during the first 430 chapters of MHA.

He doesn't have time.

This hurts me as a BKDK shipper, but I think it's obvious throughout the manga that Izuku does not have the time nor the mindset to be able to think about a relationship or a crush.

Does he have some initial romantic feelings for Ochako? Yeah, but I don't necessarily think those are for her specifically. Ochako is the first girl who's ever paid attention to him, and he notices, and as any 15 year old would, he freaks out.

(I could also go into how the very next panel is Bakugo, and how Ochako and Bakugo are constantly contrasted with each other, but that's an essay for another day).

However, it doesn't only happen with her. We get similar reactions when Hatsume falls onto him and when he sees Nejire at the beauty pageant.

Even when Toga admits she wants him to be her boyfriend, he's completely clueless and flustered.

Izuku being clueless is just a part of his character, but more than anything, it's important to emphasize the point that he is not interested in something like this right now. He doesn't partake in conversations about girls nor is he obsessed with them like Mineta and Denki (i.e. when Toga-as-Cami appears naked in front of him).

He doesn't fawn or pine over any of them like Ochako does with him. We're all well aware that Ochako has a crush on him, but where is the return? There isn't any, because he doesn't have time for that. And if it was important for the story that the two of them have a mutual romance, she would have been given a lot more room to interact with him in stereotypically-romantic scenarios. Think about it:

Ochako is not the one who is kidnapped, which causes Izuku to wallow in guilt and immediately participate in a rescue.

Ochako receives the same letter as everyone else when Izuku leaves UA.

When Ochako is mortally wounded and about to die, Izuku is nowhere nearby.

It comes down to the fact that Izuku is concentrating solely on improving OFA so that he could defeat AFO, and he prioritizes the people who will help him achieve that. He spends his time with All Might, Shoto, and Bakugo - his mentor and the people who are the best in his class and can push him. Ochako is not the person who can train him and push him to be better - Bakugo can. Shoto (both on his own and by way of his father) can. He only turns to Ochako for help when he receives his float quirk, and even then we see them interact for one chapter before he's back to normal.

To summarize: Izuku is a teenage boy being exposed to girls for the first time, but immediately prioritizes his dream to be a hero.

I know a lot of autistic people can easily pick out autistic traits in fictional characters (myself included), but I swear Shoto Todoroki is the most autistic character to ever exist

“i’ll make sure you won’t become a hero.”

“you’ll become a hero?”
