Summary
My Hero Academiachapter 430 dropped recently and, as fans know, this was the last chapter of the entire series. Fans were dreading this chapter, and at the same time, anticipating it as well, which is understandable, given that every fan wants to see their series conclude properly, but at the same time, they all hoped that it would continue forever.My Hero Academiafans were very emotional this week because of their Heroes finally setting out on a new adventure in their lives, and with that, they got to see them succeed in the Hero world.
However, things were very different for Deku, who wasthe hero of the Final Warof My Hero Academia. Of course, in this war, Deku became the greatest Hero, however, at the same time, the sacrifices that he ended up making were absolutely immense.
The Loss Of One For All During The Final War Arc
Deku Lost The One For All In MHA’s Last Arc
Deku became the ninth andthe final user of One For Allin My Hero Academia. He inherited this quirk from none other than All Might, who inherited this quirk from his own master, Nana Shimura. After gaining this incredible power, Deku trained his mind and body in ways that pushed them beyond all their limits. Deku had to become a worthy wielder of the One For All, and he certainly worked immensely hard to gain control of this power. The One For All wasn’t easy for him to control. However, with time, Deku certainly got a hold of it. In fact, it can be said that he became the best user of One For All in all of theMy Hero Academiaseries.
Goodbye, One For All! – Deku During The Fight Against Shigaraki
Not only did Deku gain the powers of the One For All, but at the same time, he had the powers of the vestiges as well. These powers made him the strongest Hero of all time, and he could do things that even All Might could not in his prime. Deku could even gohead to head against Shigaraki, despite his super regeneration, durability, and strength comparable to All Might himself.
However, despite all that power that he had, he could not defeat him. In order to do that, Deku had to probe into his deepest of memories, damage him from the inside out, which is why he ended up transferring the vestiges inside Shigaraki one by one. When that happened, Shigaraki was damaged from the inside, and forced to see his own past. This is when All For One took over, and the final fight of My Hero Academia finally began. By this time, Deku had already transferred all of One For All to Shigaraki and he held this power inside of him. All he was left with were the embers of the Quirk, and he utilized those embers to defeat All For One for good.
My Hero Academia fans were hopeful that the Deku would continue to hold those embers for a significant portion of his life. This certainly was the case for a short while after the war. Deku still held on to the power of the embers of One For All, but, these embers were not always going to be there for him. Essentially, Deku was already Quirkless, only, he was on a timer. His powers were slowly running out with the usage of the quirk, and eventually, they ran out in My Hero Academia chapter 430. It was clear for the fans to see that by the time Deku graduated, the One For All had already been lost. Sadly enough, this is also the time when all of his friends started becoming Heroes and made a great name for themselves in the world, leaving him behind. Their contact with Deku was minimal, and for him, a different life was up ahead.

Following theburning out of the embers of the One For All, Deku chose a new path in life for himself. He was no longer a Hero, because he did not have enough strength to be a Hero anymore. Instead, Deku chose to be a teacher at UA. According to him, he lived out his dream to the utmost fullest. A dream that he considered to be impossible was fulfilled by him at the end of the war. However, with the conclusion of this massive battle, his dream came to an end as well. Deku ended up becoming the greatest Hero, and paid a huge price for it, as the One For All ceased to exist.
My story, which started when my body moved before I could even think, came to an end alongside the embers of One For All. – Deku
Now, Deku believes that his job is to make sure that the next generation gets to live out their dreams, which is what makes him very special. Deku was not resentful or sad. He can still aid Heroes without actually being a Hero, and that is something that goes to show his resourcefulness.
Deku aided students in the UA and passed on his wisdom, and his experience to them on a daily basis. This is precisely why he is one of the greatest Heroes of all time. But, at his core, Deku did miss being a Hero and seeing all his friends succeed doing the job that he wanted badly as a kid must not have been easy.
Deku Gains A New Armor
My Hero Academia chapter 430 essentially confirmed that Deku had lost the embers of the One For All and that he did not have this power anymore. However, that certainly did not mean that Deku could not gain any other power. Towards the end ofMy Hero Academiachapter 430, it was clear for the fans to see that Deku was set on the path of becoming a Hero once again. And this was made possible by none other than All Might and his fellow friends. Thanks to All Might’s friends in the US, and effort from Mei, an armor similar tothe one All Might wore during the Final Warwas crafted. Only, this armor is much stronger, given that science has advanced greatly over the course of the last 8 years. This armor essentially sees to it that Deku can become a Hero once again and live out his dream, alongside all the other Heroes that he befriended during his time in the UA.
The main reason this armor became a reality was none other than Bakugo, and in his own way, this was another apology that he believed that he owed to Deku. He took care of the core of the funding required for this armor, but all the other friends chipped in as well. Eventually, this masterpiece was completely developed, and offered to Deku. In the final panel ofMy Hero Academia, Deku donned this armor once again, and went about being a Hero alongside the rest of his friends once again. That truly was a fascinating ending to the story. Deku now has a new power,even though the One For All doesn’t exist, and that just goes to show that anyone can truly become a hero.
My Hero Academia is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and theManga Plusapp. The release date for the final chapter of My Hero Academia, My Hero Academia chapter 430, is set to be May 30, 2025.
