The revelation of All For One’s return and its implications for Tomura Shigaraki in Chapter 419 left ‘My Hero Academia’ fans in awe. The manga had previously established that Shigaraki, also known as Tenko Shimura in his youth, was born with the Decay Quirk.
Nevertheless, the latest chapter has significantly transformed the narrative of this incident. Leaks suggest that All For One played a crucial role in Shigaraki’s decline and had a hand in nearly every significant event in his life.
Despite the multitude of questions that may arise in our minds, rest assured that we have them all covered.
1. All For One Bestows Shigaraki with Decay
It is common knowledge that Shigaraki possesses the ability of decay, but are you aware that he has had it since childhood? He, along with his parents, were under the manipulation of All For One from the moment he was born. This allowed All For One to establish a strong connection with the young Shigaraki and lay the foundation for his eventual defeat.
All For One revealed that Shigaraki’s Quirk had been taken from him since birth and replaced with the Decay Quirk. Originally possessing both decay and healing abilities, All For One altered the Quirk to only have destructive powers.
The Shimura household was destroyed as a result of this power’s manifestation. All For One proceeded to take in Shigaraki, leading him down a destructive path. This realization left Shigaraki devastated as he came to understand that he was simply a pawn for All For One.
2. Is the Decay Quirk Originated from Deku?
Despite the misconception that Deku’s ‘Decay’ Quirk was stolen, it was actually gifted to Tomura Shigaraki by All For One. Shigaraki then learned how to replicate and modify it from Overhaul.
Despite widespread belief, a fan theory proposes that Shigaraki’s Quirk may have once belonged to Deku. According to this theory, Deku’s Quirk was taken from him as a baby by Dr. Kyudai Garaki, an ally of All For One who had diagnosed Deku as Quirkless. It is speculated that the Quirk was later kept in reserve until it could be transferred to someone who could be manipulated, such as Shigaraki.
3. What is the Nature of Shigaraki’s Original Quirk?
According to Chapter 419, Shigaraki’s original Quirk is not explicitly mentioned. However, it can be inferred that All For One took away Tenko’s original Quirk and replaced it with a version of the Quirk used by another villain, Overhaul, which eventually manifested as Shigaraki’s decay Quirk.
Interestingly, as Shigaraki’s decay Quirk manifested, his hair began to gray, which serves as a clear indication that it was not a natural ability he obtained.
4. What happens to All For One and Shigaraki after their defeat?
The series finale now features All For One as the ultimate villain. Although he has taken control of Shigaraki’s body, there was a brief moment where he had to prevent the remaining consciousness of Shigaraki from resisting. This provides a glimmer of hope that Shigaraki may make a comeback in the upcoming chapters. The primary concern is how this unexpected turn of events in chapter 419 will impact the overall narrative.
Despite many readers anticipating Deku to redeem Shigaraki, this chapter proved to be a revelation as it showed that Deku may not do so. However, there is still a possibility of Deku redeeming Shigaraki by sacrificing himself to defeat All For One.
Additionally, this chapter not only validates a popular fan theory but also foreshadows potential conflicts in the future. Overall, it was a captivating chapter that left readers with numerous inquiries and great excitement for what was yet to unfold.
