In My Hero Academia, it takes more than Quirks and punches to win the day, even if pro heroes like All Might and Mirko rely heavily on sheer force to win the day. There's also the matter of smarts and creative thinking, which allows many other pro heroes, student heroes, and villains to shine. Brainwork is the best Quirk, sometimes literally, and it can even help some characters outfox the likes of All For One.

It's true All For One is one of My Hero Academia's smartest characters of all, but his intelligence is geared for long-term planning, while he's more vulnerable in the short term. As fans saw in Season 7, it's possible to deceive and outwit All For One in brief bursts, and certain My Hero Academia characters are up for the job. They haven't beat the great villain just yet, but if they need one good trick to throw him off-balance,...

My Hero Academia and Marvel Studios just teamed up for something special. The official Japanese accounts for both announced a crossover on February 6, celebrating the upcoming movie Captain America: Brave New World. This collaboration highlights two winged warriors: Hawks from My Hero Academia and Sam Wilson, the new Captain America.

The My Hero Academia account shared a fresh visual featuring both characters, while Marvel Studios dropped a special video narrated by Yūichi Nakamura. He’s the voice of Hawks in the anime and also dubbed Chris Evans’ Captain America in several Marvel films like The Avengers and Captain America: The First Avenger.

The video was later uploaded to Toho animation’s YouTube channel, showing moments from My Hero Academia, past MCU films, and Brave New World, linking the two characters through their flight-based abilities.

This isn’t the first time these two worlds have collided. Back in 2018, My Hero Academia...

Anime villains are beloved by the anime community, and have become important figures in pop culture. Villains come in all different forms, and since their characterization varies by series, it is nearly impossible for fans not to find a villain they like. From tragic villains such as Dabi Todoroki and Ulquiorra and anti-heroes like Itachi Uchiha and Light Yagami, to those classified as pure evil such as Griffith and Ryomen Sukuna, there's a villain to match everyone's preferences.

Sukuna is the main antagonist in Jujutsu Kaisen, and he is widely regarded as one of the most evil anime villains ever. In universe, Sukuna is known as the King of Curses and he certainly lived up to the title by committing some of the most cruel acts in Jujutsu Kaisen. Sukuna’s ruthlessness and sadism are reasons he is widely considered as one of the most evil anime villains. However, there...

Exclusive: Studiocanal has revealed a first image for Vincent Maël Cardona’s tense behind-closed-doors thriller No One Will Know as it launches sales on the title at the Unifrance Rendez-Vous in Paris this week.

The huis close follows the clients and bar staff of a shabby cafe outside Paris in the early hours of the morning, who enter into a deadly pact when an elderly regular comes in and wins €294 million in the lottery.

My Hero Academia's All Might is one of the most iconic characters the anime industry has produced. Embodying the classic traits of Superman, All Might stands as one of the strongest characters, representing hope and strength unparalleled in the medium. While All Might's role as a beacon of hope and his unmatched power set him apart, Naruto has long embodied similar hopeful traits, even before All Might's time.

Starting as an orphaned child who was hated and feared by others, Naruto never strayed onto the wrong path. With crucial support from Iruka Umino, he transformed his feelings of hatred into determination, striving to become Hokage to earn respect and recognition. Through relentless effort, Naruto achieved remarkable feats, and at just 16 years old, he defeated Kaguya, saving the world from the threat of global genocide. This highlights his unparalleled strength, and at his current age, he should have been the strongest in the sequel,...

Most characters in the world of My Hero Academia are born with a single Quirk, but All For One is an entirely different matter with his own Quirk of the same name. He was born into the early era of Quirks, back when few people understood or appreciated these supernatural gifts, and All For One made the most of that confusing era. He had the ability to transfer Quirks between people, including himself, and no one in his era could stop him from abusing his remarkable ability.

Over many decades, All For One amassed an incredible number of stolen Quirks to use. It's impressive not just that he has so many Quirks, but that his body can withstand the strain of having so many superpowers at once, making him a one-man army who has defeated a succession of One For All users. This is a perfect time for My Hero Academia...

2024 was a more successful year for both Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia than ever before, as both of these series concluded this year. Additionally, each series put out an epilogue that properly tied the story to a close, giving the characters fans have grown to adore over the past few years the send-off they deserve.

These two shonen mangas rank among 2024's bestsellers, but only one title can reign supreme, achieving the highest sales. The question of which series is the most popular, Jujutsu Kaisen or My Hero Academia, finally has an answer, laying the debate to rest with finality.

The superhero story of My Hero Academia may have a generous cast of characters on both sides of the heroes vs villains struggle, but only a select few of them could be called seriously important for the plot. Most students in classes 1-a and 1-b are just filler, and the same is even true of some pro heroes and villains, while certain characters are indispensable to the story. These plot-centric characters make all the difference between the things they say and do, and they usually appear in the most critical plot twists, too.

It's a given that protagonist Izuku Midoriya/Deku is the most important My Hero Academia character, since the entire plot happened thanks to him getting One For All and fighting as a hero. Something similar can be said about the symbol of peace, All Might, who made Deku's rise to power possible. If fans don't count those obvious inclusions,...

In a shonen anime like My Hero Academia, many of the main characters are in their teens, meaning they need parental figures to protect them, guide them, and support them as they grow up. While there are a few notable mother figures in My Hero Academia, like Inko Midoriya and Nana Shimura, the anime focuses even more on father figures, men who either supported their own children or served as a father figure to someone else.

The anime has a notable collection of father figures, biological and otherwise, who range from abusive monsters to exemplary parental figures, and everything in between. Sometimes, the characters might not consider themselves father figures first and foremost, but that is still one of their major roles in the story all the same. Some of those men wouldn't call themselves parental figures, but for certain youths in their lives, that is absolutely what they are.

All For One and Bakugo Katsuki are two of the most important characters in the My Hero Academia manga. Despite how little they interacted, their actions were vital for the story to advance. From Bakugo inspiring Deku to keep chasing his dream of being a hero to the Symbol of Evil controlling the criminal world of Japan, the manga could never have worked without them.

Despite them often being associated with Izuku and not each other, many fans have noticed the importance All For One had on Bakugo’s arc. When analyzed closely, the series clarifies that the main villain served as Bakugo’s nemesis during the final arc. Their moments together might have been few, but they were extremely important for Dynamight to grow as a person.

Anime enthusiasts the world over — from shojo lovers to shonen junkies and everything in between — couldn't get enough of the unforgettable stories and iconic moments that aired this past year. Filled to the brim with explosive battles, emotionally charged encounters and plot twists that left audiences reeling, the anime from 2024 has offered legendary moments that will be talked about for years to come.

Yet even amidst all the dynamic scenes, a few series delivered standout episodes that excelled past every other episode that aired this year. From the Todoroki family finally achieving some semblance of closure during the seventh season of My Hero Academia to Arcane offering League of Legends fans an emotional bombshell when Ekko visits an alternate timeline in its second season, these episodes stand in the upper echelons of the anime world for 2024.

My Hero Academia Season 7, Episode 19, “I am Here” Mha Gives The Todoroki Family Closure...

My Hero Academia starts as a lighthearted superhero series, but as protagonist Izuku Midoriya and his friends strive to become true heroes, they realize how dark and brutal the hero world can be. Being a pro hero is dangerous work, and many heroes die when trying to save others, especially when faced with murderous villains. It's to be expected since heroes are committed to shielding the innocent with their very lives, but that may be of little comfort to the people they leave behind.

That said, even deceased villains might leave behind a heartbroken friend or lover who misses them. In other words, it's not just the heroes who have lost people. Villains, heroes, and civilians have lost loved ones thanks to All For One and his comrades who work to destroy history and society to enact a new world order. There aren't many notable deaths in Mha, but the...

In a world overrun by heroes and villains, each person has their own separate motivations for why they chose their path in life. Although some have good intentions, these motivations could be rooted in traumatic experiences from their past. Some are born with quirks that cause destruction and others are born with no quirks at all.

Depending on the person's outlook on life, it can cause them to live through incredibly disheartening experiences and circumstances. My Hero Academia is primarily joyful, but there are heart-breaking episodes that make it hard not to shed a tear, especially when the series hits season seven.

Ten years after the release of its first chapter, the My Hero Academia manga came to an end with a spectacular final chapter, #431. The epilogue of the series, which allowed fans to see a glimpse of the protagonist’s life eight years after All For One was defeated, did a magnificent job of bringing the series to a close. Kohei Horikoshi, the creator of this beloved franchise, gave it his all to give fans a satisfying conclusion.

This monumental occasion was celebrated by the author with a moving and memorable afterword in which he addresses his readers. The letter thanks fans for the many years of support they gave him, revealing how the continuous support of the fandom helped him alleviate his anxiety.

The My Hero Academia manga series is well known for its complex and compelling villains. Throughout the series, fans were able to meet antagonists whose backstories or motivations made them question the nature of good and evil. Among these incredible characters, Toga Himiko stands out for being one of the most tragic. Most of the time, the vampire-like villain would present herself as a hardened criminal.

Yet, her interactions with Ochako Uraraka gave readers a chance to see her more human side, revealing a girl whose only desire was to feel accepted.

With the recent worldwide spark in interest for anime, series like My Hero Academia are receiving more attention than ever before. From merchandise collaborations with franchises like Jujutsu Kaisen and Dragon Ball to events like Crunchyroll's Anime Awards, anime is making a noticeable real-world impact. According to an Anime News Network article, My Hero Academia is the latest series to receive one of these exciting real world accolades.

Despite being lauded for its compelling storyline, Kohei Horikoshi’s My Hero Academia has received lots of criticism regarding its ending. Fans still can’t accept the fact that Deku has embraced a role as a teacher at the end of the series instead of becoming the number one hero in a traditional sense. However, looking back on a particular chapter from My Hero Academia, this future might have been predetermined by Horikoshi; which many fans may have overlooked.

The fight between Endeavor and All For One in chapter 357 of My Hero Academia offers not just a breathtaking display of combat but also a profound commentary on legacy, hope, and the future of hero society. Within this intense battle, Horikoshi may have dropped a subtle yet powerful hint about Deku’s ultimate destiny.

Endeavor’s Vision in My Hero Academia:...

My Hero Academias Deku had one of the most divisive endings in chapter #430 of the manga series. After his intense battle against Shigaraki and All For One, Izuku sacrificed his Quirk, being forced to leave the life of a hero behind for seven years. Thanks to the help of his amazing friends, he was given a new chance to chase his dream by utilizing an advanced suit of armor that could replicate his lost abilities.

For many fans, this ending seemed to come out of nowhere, as most of the fandom imagined that he would go on to become a world-famous hero. Yet, a small detail found in chapter #357 might have hinted at this being Dekus destiny years in advance. While Kohei Horikoshi is not known for his massive use of foreshadowing like One Piece's creator Eiichiro Oda, this small hint could have been a nod to the finale...

My Hero Academia first introduced the #1 pro hero, the symbol of peace All Might, then introduced his greatest rival, the flaming pro hero Endeavor. As the ambitious #2 pro hero, Endeavor named himself after his determination to fight his way to the top and make it his personal mission, a lifelong endeavor to become someone incredible. Over the course of his arc, Endeavor largely succeeded, but not in the ways he expected or even liked.

Endeavor's character can be assessed on a superficial level, such as the design of his hero costume and his Hellflame Quirk, but the true essence of this character lays in who he is and the effect he has had on the people around him. That includes Endeavor's strained relationship with his wife and children, his role as an antihero mentor for My Hero Academia's young protagonists, and the ongoing question of whether Endeavor even deserves redemption...

Despite how fascinating and enjoyable the world of My Hero Academia can be, it still has many flaws that were addressed as the series progressed. From prejudices against individuals with heteromorph Quirk to discrimination against people because of villainous powers, the society created by Kohei Horikoshi draws heavy similarities to the real world.

One of the most problematic and horrifying issues shown in the series is the idea of Quirk Marriages. This taboo and frowned upon practice consisted of a wealthy family or individual buying a person to make them their spouse in the hope that their power could combine to create a powerful child. This horrid topic was not only mostly ignored by the often corrupt and uncaring Hero Society at large, but it was also completely forgotten once the ending of the series began.

Ideally, the heroes and villains in anime will stick around exactly long enough to have a proper character arc and do what they must do, then bow out of the story. If a character lingers and overstays their welcome, their character arc will stall out, and they might even end up feeling downright redundant. In other cases, a character may overstay their welcome simply because they're annoying to watch and a little of them goes a long way.

That is sometimes the case with certain anime villains, who stubbornly keep fighting the heroes even after they've lost their most important battle. Some villains keep coming back for more even when they no longer stand a chance against the heroes, or they're so unbearable, anime fans want them to go away after their first battle or conflict. Such is the case for ten particular anime antagonists who felt like they were...

Many pro heroes in My Hero Academia's world have long and illustrious careers, and that includes the famed symbol of peace himself, All Might. He regularly appears in the anime as a major supporting hero and even showed up in some flashbacks, allowing fans to piece together a chronology of All Might's life. While some phases of his life are merely glossed over in the lore, there's enough exposition for fans to know what each phase of All Might's life was like.

As of the 7th season of My Hero Academia, All Might is in his late 50s, meaning he has experienced and done plenty of incredible things in his lifetime as Japan's greatest hero to ever live. Despite his dazzling smile and legions of fans, All Might often had a tough time in his life and faced many hardships and insecurities, but he always longed to make others happy,...

With My Hero Academia currently airing and the last few movies for Demon Slayer announced to come out in theaters, fans of both anime are relishing the last animated moments of their favorite series of the new generation.

My Hero Academia is about a quirkless kid named Izuku Midoriya who wants to become a hero and take down the villains. Demon Slayer revolves around Tanjiro Kamado, who is determined to take down all the demons to turn his sister, Nezuko Kamado, back into a human. Both series have standout moments, but overall, Demon Slayer surpasses My Hero Academia. These are ten areas where Demon Slayer shines.

As My Hero Academia's seventh anime season draws closer to its end, it's more clear than ever that this season remains the series' best to date. It's not only the bombastic Quirk battles that make it stand out, but just how much heart is in every fights. The best shonen anime battles have a strong emotional and thematic core to give the action more weight, and Episode 19, "I Am Here," delivers with the battles against Dabi/Toya and All For One. In each case, the heroes only have hope because of what is in their hearts, and that hope is stronger than any Quirk.

On a physical level, all is lost for the remaining pro heroes and hero students, despite the recent arrival of the Shiketsu students to even the odds. All...

My Hero Academia is a franchise that constantly introduces new and exciting characters to its extensive roster. From Izukus fellow hero students to obscure pros that help the protagonists in their fight against the villain, the series never runs out of new cast members to entertain fans with.

This fact also applies to the franchise's several incredible movies, as each one has introduced many amazing new friends and enemies to the heroes. While they have been considered non-canon for many years, episode 156 of the My Hero Academia anime adaptation may have just confirmed that they have always been an official part of the series.

Related My Hero Academia's Ending Makes The New Movie Even More Important

My Hero Academia is set to end around the same time its new movie premieres, and that makes the movie even more important to the franchise.

My Hero Academia Episode 156 Proves the Movies...

My Hero Academia's seventh season is nearing its finale, and if the season's latest episodes are any indication, then the long-awaited battle to defeat All For One is preparing to reach its climax. As the series' terrifying supervillain slowly ages backward, his raw power grows stronger and stronger, leaving a trail of devastation in his wake that threatens to not only upend Japanese society, but also unravel countries all over the world. Only Deku and his allies stand between All For One and world domination, and if Season 7, Episode 18 titled "It's a Small World" is any indication, this is much easier said than done.

Although My Hero Academia Season 7 won't conclude the series' narrative, "It's a Small World" makes it painfully apparent that the show is rapidly approaching its endgame. Unlike some lackluster episodes earlier in this season, Episode 18 oozes urgency that emphasizes just how dangerous the fight against...

My Hero Academia's current battle isn't just a physical fight to see which side will emerge triumphant to reshape the future. Survival is on the line for every hero and villain in Season 7's final war, but there are more intangible and resonant stakes, too. Plenty of characters are fighting for a chance at redemption, with some deserving a second chance more than others. The series has often doled out second chances, but isn't naive enough to believe everyone deserves redemption.

Endgame battles hinge on hope, which is the perfect reason to title Episode 17 "Hopes" for many reasons. On a more personal level, the episode lends hope that wrongdoers can get a second chance to become someone wonderful and impact the world positively. Showcasing hope on every level, including for those who feel its absence,...

Warning: Contains spoilers for chapter #268 of Jujutsu Kaisen.

Jujutsu Kaisen has finally revealed Sukuna's true form in his final moments and though it has shocked fans, it actually makes perfect sense. Despite being the ultimate final antagonist of the series, Jujutsu Kaisen has given Sukuna a rather pathetic ending with his final form following a growing trend in shonen manga.

After a long brutal battle, Sukuna is finally defeated in chapter #268 of Jujutsu Kaisen which also sees him finally forced out of Megumi's body. Surprisingly, without a host, Sukuna takes the form of an amorphous slime with only a single bulging eye and mouth. This form does not last very long and quickly disintegrates away, making Sukuna's final moments especially pathetic, especially given his pride until the very end.

Sukuna's final form was quite shocking as many fans perhaps expected the King of Curses to go down in a...

My Hero Academia's villains have certainly given the series' heroes a run for their money over the years. With incredible Quirks, conniving plans, and a desire to watch heroes fall from power, these villains are not to be underestimated. Although most My Hero Academia villains despise heroes, they each hate them for vastly different reasons.

For example, Shigaraki hates heroes because he blames them for not saving him from a tragic childhood event, while Stain hates heroes because he disagrees with Pro Heroes being paid and adored by society for their efforts, believing that they should not accept material rewards and praise for their work. Additionally, these villains' Quirks are just as varied as their core beliefs. These evildoers are capable of truly atrocious acts using the powers they wield, including everything from burning enemies with flames to disintegrating living and non-living things.

Eri's absence from All for One's knowledge spared her from becoming a target, altering the course of events.

My Hero Academia's big villain, All for One, is known for stealing the Quirks of others which he finds useful or interesting. However, there's one truly fascinating Quirk which All for One never even learned about, much less had the chance to steal: Eri's Rewind.

Deku's heroism goes beyond saving Japan, as he reunites broken families and helps them heal from past trauma. His selflessness and kindness give hope to those who have suffered, like Tenko and Nana Shimura's family. Deku's actions show that true heroism is not just about defeating villains, but also about bringing peace and forgiveness.

My Hero Academias Deku is undoubtedly one of the most noble and empathetic characters of recent years. The young man is the embodiment of heroism, willing to sacrifice himself to save anyone in need. Nowhere is Dekus sacrifice and heroic nature better exemplified than during the final battle against All For One and Shigaraki.

Besides saving Japan from the Symbol of Evil himself, Deku accomplished a feat that no other Hero in the series did; reuniting a dead family and helping them overcome their trauma. During the fight, Deku not only saved Tenko from All for Ones control,...

The best Bakugo-centric episodes focus on his character development and his growth as a hero. Others feature his immense strength and skill prominently. Since Bakugo has been a fan favorite for so long, its natural that his episodes are some of the most beloved. Bakugos best episodes never fail to bring a lot of emotion and action into the story.

Expectations can set an audience up for failure, for their desires to be met, or for a series to go beyond viewers' imaginations.

There's also the problem of Butcher being terminally ill, while head-exploder Newman is even closer to the White House than before.

Mild Spoilers for My Hero Academia

The hit anime series My Hero Academia is reaching its most climactic moments, meaning that the major conflicts tied to the villain All For One will be faced head-on by Deku and his allies. As the major villain, All For One Afo for short has become more integrated into each episode, but sadly, his important role has fallen flat. Not every villain is meant to be exactly the same, but compared to another similar character, Afo missed some critically important details.

As his role in the story grows, it becomes clear that All For One isn't the most effective villain. Similar in villainous approach and style, the character Orochimaru, from Naruto, is the best example of what Afo should have been all along.
