Also I just came up with this, but in My Hero Academia, Isn't Inko Midorya's quirk a really weak and less useful form of Chibaku Tensei?
I refer to it like that, and suddenly she seems like the most overpowered character in the show, but the reality is that, well, she's not.

Chibaku Tensei allows you to attract things to a point away from you, meaning you can avoid having rocks thrown in your face. Plus it just attracts a lot more stuff towards you, and at a faster rate.
Inko's quirk does none of these things. As a result, I can't see any possible way for it to be useful in a fight.

Would you Magically change your own Sexual Orientation to get your

Izuku is not Green Naruto.
That Title belongs to Bakugo. Except Bakugo doesn't wear green.

So adding Swordmen to a setting dominated by Machine guns and Pistols... Giving the average human the potential to react to and parry bullets, making Swordplay useable in a gunfight.
A Decent Swordsman in a setting dominated by guns would have to be able to deflect bullets as if they were second nature.
If we want to add Swords, then the Story has to be Sci-Fi or Fantasy. In real life, Swords are invalidated by guns completely. Military men use guns and bombs. In Close Combat, most people use knifes and their hands. But in Fiction, we aren't constrained by physics.
Final Fantasy and Metal Gear games starting in the Shadow Moses time period do it regularly.
Who knows, maybe we'll eventually find a metal that is strong enough to withstand gunfire regularly, and humans will evolve to the point that we can move and react faster than the Speed of Sound. But I doubt anyone who posts on this website will be alive to see it.

Also, the world of My Hero Academia doesn't have a self defense clause?
In Harry Potter, you aren't allowed to use magic outside of school. But if it's in self defense, like Harry and the Dementors in the 5th book, then you can break that law.
But in My Hero Academia... yeah, even though their lives were technically in danger, Shoto Todoroki, Izuku Midorya, and Tenya Iida could still have faced legal trouble for knocking out the "Hero Killer", because they weren't licensed. It was only due to the police's help that they got off the hook.

If we're applying real world laws then I'm pretty sure everyone should've still been fine since could've argued that Iida was attempting to help Native (the Pro Hero Stain was about to kill when Iida showed up); same for Midoriya with both Iida and Native and todoroki with all three of them.
Anyway, there most likely is a self defense clause, you're just not allowed to use your Quirk for self defense. the whole point of that affair was that the system is heavily flawed. Politics just kind of collectively shat itself trying to somehow deal with Quirks.
