The climactic battle in My Hero Academia has escalated dramatically, with Izuku Midoriya facing off against Tomura Shigaraki in a showdown that fans have been eagerly anticipating.
The stakes were raised even higher when All For One’s ultimate form was revealed, marking a pivotal moment in the series’ final arc.
In an unexpected twist, Midoriya and Shigaraki’s minds merged, allowing Deku a rare opportunity to understand the true motivations driving his adversary. This moment of clarity, however, was short-lived.
All For One’s Final Form
Midoriya’s attempt to connect with Shigaraki on a deeper level seemed to initially pay off, offering a glimmer of hope that Shigaraki could be swayed from his destructive path.
This breakthrough, however, was swiftly overshadowed by the revelation that All For One’s consciousness lingered within Shigaraki, biding its time.
Despite the destruction of All For One’s physical body, his presence within Shigaraki remained potent, awaiting an opportunity to seize control. That moment arrived when Shigaraki’s defenses were down, allowing All For One to assume total command of his body.

The narrative took a darker turn in Chapter 419 of My Hero Academia, with All For One exploiting Shigaraki’s vulnerabilities to solidify his takeover.
All For One confessed to orchestrating Shigaraki’s evolution into the villain he has become, from bestowing the Decay quirk upon him—after removing his original quirk—to manipulating events to ensure Shigaraki’s birth. This manipulation was a final straw for Shigaraki, enabling All For One to dominate him completely.
As All For One assumed control, the transformation of Shigaraki’s body was evident, though traces of his consciousness persisted.
All For One symbolically silenced these remnants, showcasing a redesigned appearance for Shigaraki that subtly but unmistakably indicates All For One’s supremacy. This change signals All For One’s resurgence as the series’ ultimate antagonist, setting the stage for an epic conclusion.
Yet, the challenge that lies in defeating him is monumental, hinting at the epic battles that await as My Hero Academia approaches its thrilling climax.
