My Hero Academia delves into Shigaraki’s origin in a gripping turn of events, teasing a major theory that may redefine his character and justify Deku’s controversial decision.
The decision to redeem Shigaraki has ignited passionate debates among My Hero Academia fans, given the magnitude of his crimes.
However, the latest chapter, #415, introduces a game-changing revelation that hints at the possibility that Shigaraki’s infamous Decay quirk might not be his original power.
A prevailing theory speculates that, akin to Deku receiving One For All, All For One bestowed Decay upon Shigaraki, potentially altering the narrative trajectory.
Chapter #415 unveils glimpses of Shigaraki’s childhood memories during his intense battle with Deku. One pivotal scene involves a mysterious man leading a young Tenko by the hand.
Initially appearing inconsequential, this memory gains significance as it resurrects suspicions from chapter #235, suggesting that the mysterious man could indeed be All For One.
The theory proposes that All For One, harboring grudges against previous One For All users like Nana Shimura, targeted Tenko, Nana’s grandson. This revelation hints at a strategic move by All For One, finding Tenko at his lowest point after the tragic murder of his family, thereby grooming him into a perfect pawn for his sinister plans.
All For One’s role as the first person to reach out to Shigaraki after his orphaning becomes a crucial aspect of his manipulation.
The theory gains further credibility as Tenko’s development of Decay coincides with meeting the mysterious man, implying a calculated orchestration by All For One.
The chapter meticulously addresses the fact that Decay did not run in Tenko’s family, dispelling assumptions about his quirk’s hereditary nature.
The coincidences surrounding Tenko’s encounter with All For One raise questions about the intricacies of their connection and the potential depth of All For One’s influence on Shigaraki’s tragic trajectory.
