The significance of the Dabi vs. Shoto showdown
During the conflict between the heroes and the Paranormal Liberation Front in season 6, fans were treated to a brief Dabi vs. Shoto showdown. This was also when the Dabi dance was first seen and the shocking revelation of the villain’s true identity as Toya Todoroki, the eldest son of Endeavor Todoroki. Some fans may recall this iconic moment.
The showdown between Dabi and Shoto in the final war is eagerly awaited by fans, as it will showcase Dabi’s long-suppressed anger towards his family for abandoning him after the forest fire. Thankfully, Shoto will have the support of other heroes such as Ingenium (Iida), Kamliji (Endeavor’s side-kick), and a few students from U.A. High School.
What to Expect in Season 7 of My Hero Academia
Upon learning about All Might’s predicament, Star and Stripe, the strongest hero in the US, hurried to aid her master in his battle against the villainous Tomura Shigaraki. Despite being unaware of Tomura’s transformation into TomurAFO, the hero suffered consequences and ultimately lost her quirk to the villain. However, the New Order, now without its previous wielder, fought against TomurAFO from within.
Despite her passing, it was eventually discovered that Aoyama, who had been training for the upcoming war, was actually the traitor of U.A. High. This revelation was shocking as it was revealed that Aoyama had been driven by his quirkless status to commit such treacherous acts. After exchanging heartfelt sentiments, the heroes devised a secret plan to draw out All for One by utilizing Shinso, and their strategy proved successful in initiating the war.
Despite the heroes’ efforts to divide the villains across Japan and weaken their unified force, the war began with Deku being separated from the battlefield by Toga’s interference. Nevertheless, the war continued without delay and fans eagerly anticipate the outcome of the final battle. The question remains: which side will ultimately prevail?
