Recently, a leaked chapter of My Hero Academia (423) hinted at the series coming to an end as All For One was finally defeated by the combined efforts of the heroes. With Deku losing the One For All Quirk, his companions all rallied to aid him in his ultimate showdown, ultimately leading to the downfall of the villainous overlord.
Despite signaling the end of the War arc in the My Hero Academia manga, the upcoming chapters will primarily focus on resolving various character arcs. Chapter 423 marked the conclusion of the final battle in the series, and the following chapters will serve as an epilogue to author Kohei Horikoshi’s story.
This article includes spoilers for the series, so please proceed with caution.
Possible End of My Hero Academia Series in Chapter 423
The latest installment of Chapter 423 was released this week, revealing the ultimate downfall of All For One. Deku, with the assistance of his comrades and fellow heroes, delivered the final blow to end the fierce battle. Additionally, Tomura Shigaraki, aided by the remaining One For All users in the vestige world, also took down the villain in that realm. Deku and Tomura exchanged a few final words before the conclusion of the conflict.
Overall, the primary conflict of the series, which involved stopping All For One, has been resolved and other threats, including Tomura Shigaraki and his League of Villains, have also been dealt with. All character arcs have concluded, with characters such as Deku, Katsuki Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, Ochaco Uraraka, and All Might reaching their respective closures in their journeys throughout the manga.
After the final battle has ended, the upcoming chapters will primarily serve as an epilogue. It is highly likely that author Kohei Horikoshi will use these chapters to tie up loose ends for other important characters and to seamlessly transition into the seventh season of the anime, possibly even the first few episodes.
Possible Events to Expect in the Upcoming Chapters
In the upcoming chapters of My Hero Academia, it is expected that the aftermath of the final battle will be addressed. A highly debated topic among fans currently is whether characters such as Dabi and Himiko Toga have survived, as the manga has not officially confirmed their deaths despite their critical conditions.
Additionally, there will be a strong focus on Deku due to his role as the protagonist and to definitively address the question of whether or not he has lost his Quirk. This may spark differing opinions within the fandom. In a recent statement, author Kohei Horikoshi expressed his desire to incorporate the sky illustration featuring Uraraka and Deku from a few years ago into the narrative, possibly signaling an end to the character arcs of others.
Final Thoughts
With the conclusion of My Hero Academia chapter 423 and the final battle with All For One, it is highly likely that the upcoming chapters will act as an epilogue. As such, it can be said that the main conflict of the series has now reached its end.
