In both series, we witness protagonists navigating their respective worlds filled with heroes and villains, albeit with distinct tones and approaches. While My Hero Academia delves deep into the journey of aspiring heroes, grappling with themes of growth, friendship, and sacrifice, One Punch Man takes a more satirical stance, exploring the ennui of an overwhelmingly powerful hero who seeks a worthy adversary.

The notion of parallels between the two series is attracting, prompting fans to speculate on potential narrative intersections or thematic resonances. Could Midoriya’s journey echo Saitama’s in some unforeseen manner? Will the impending clash with Shigaraki bear semblance to Saitama’s search for fulfillment amidst his effortless victories?

With All For One’s defeat, all attention shifts to Izuku Midoriya, who risks everything in his battle against Tomura Shigaraki. His fate, whether in victory or defeat, seems destined to mark the end of the manga series.

Midoriya’s current strategy revolves around overloading Shigaraki with the accumulated quirks of One For All, aiming to allow the vestiges to infiltrate Shigaraki’s consciousness. The success of the plan hinges on the possibility of persuading Shigaraki to relinquish his current course through the intervention of the vestiges.

In the lead-up to My Hero Academia chapter 416, Shigaraki manages to gain the upper hand, overwhelming Midoriya by stealing a quirk. However, the recent chapter showcased Midoriya’s resilience and combat prowess, instilling fear in Shigaraki. The entire world bore witness to Midoriya’s heroic endeavors, with readers relishing the spotlight on the main character. Yet, the leaks for My Hero Academia chapter 416 have the entire fanbase buzzing with anticipation.

The excitement stems from Midoriya utilizing his quirks to deliver a devastating punch to Shigaraki. The rendering of this punch by Kohei Horikoshi bears a striking resemblance to Saitama’s famed Serious Punch from One Punch Man.

In the One Punch Man series, Saitama rarely employs the Serious Series: Serious Punch. When he does, the sheer size of his fist and the overwhelming presence of his attack are emphasized, often accompanied by the Kanji for death.

Although the raw scans of My Hero Academia chapter 416 lack Kanji symbols, the angle and composition of the frame evoke memories of Saitama’s iconic attack. Naturally, fans were ecstatic upon witnessing this particular panel, as Midoriya channeling the essence of Saitama sparks immense excitement.

Some fans speculate that this moment could signal the impending end of the fight. However, it remains for the fanbase to await the release of My Hero Academia chapter 416 to ascertain whether the battle will indeed reach its climax in the forthcoming chapters.
