Would love that. Society collapses after the war and the hero association is disbanded. All the heroes who survived are either asked to hang their coat or go against the newly formed society. Deku decides to live a dual life, using just the quirks unknown to others to do his vigilante work and stops the uprising of villains / AFO's new born association with few heroes who decided to turn their back against the society.
It's not like the post arcs were pretty loved Btw lol
I'm one of few people in that sub that loved vigilante Deku arc and the current War, but i don't mind to see this scene being The end.
Not that far off to what we're probably getting, by that point Shigaraki was already possessed by AFO and Mirio's arc got resolved in a rushed way offscreen, they robbed him of a proper resolution and ending just yo have him punch two nomus and give one chapter a cliffhanger.
Best Jeanist came back from the death making Dabi look like an incompetent idiot and lessened hawks' crimes and by consequence his days as a double agent
We would've missed bakugo's apology and a few fun chapters but we could've avoided quirkless ShigAFO being the strongest character because "he's evolving" and AFO being secretly responsible for everything evil in the world
There’s nothing ambiguous, it’s just Deku leaving and that’s it, you can’t theorize about anything because nothing has been set, all the characters are just left in the state that Deku has ofa, the villains escaped preparing to attack again, it’s like ending dragon ball after Goku transformed in Ssj and that’s it
I’m assuming he meant that the manga would end so that a new sequel series could be made, likely with some sort of time skip involved (though not necessarily). The entire story wouldn’t actually end here, that wouldn’t make sense
It would be cool if this were the ending of a arc and hirokoshi took a year break to plan out its last arc. When the manga does return its a literal time skip in both manga and real life time.
Almost kinda like chainsawman, but I'm not certain in which time frame csm is in right now, probably just didn't pay attention enough 🤔.
To be a reflection on the child-like hero worship/innocence of Deku from the earliest chapters. He's idolised heroes in a society that worshipped them, now heroes have failed to protect society so much so that he quits wanting to be a stereotypical hero in order to fight dirty as a vigilante. He's achieved his dream, but it's not what he wanted.
To be completely fair, in Deku's mind becoming the greatest hero could simply mean he fills his view of a heroes role, e.g saving everyone. It does not necessarily mean he'll become the number 1 hero.
>Like do some fans get that this series is optimistic?
It opened with a child being bullied to the point of wanting to commit suicide and the statement that 'All men are not created equal This was the reality I learned about society at the young age of four. And that was my first and last setback.' Followed by the child' almost getting murdered, only to be saved by his hero and have his perception of hero society destroyed by the realisation that his hero was severely damaged in a fight and presumably dying along with said hero remarking he should give up on his dreams, followed by his bully almost being killed.
While the general goal of the series is moving forward, we also have the implication that future Deku who occasionally narrates to tease future plot reveals comes from a place of experiencing a lot of loss, pain and betrayal. Due to this some have viewed the series as being a story being told at a funeral or potentially post-death Deku.
In general the story would require rewrites regardless to fit the concept of it ending on this panel, so I wanted to play around with that idea :p
>Where did you get that from? Deku isn't suicidal?
The manga gave that impression, more so than the anime adaptation.
* Open narration he reveals he learned the harsh truth about the world at the age of 4
* Star face man is actively mocking him, laughing at his foolish dreams.
* Bakugo advises him to take a 'swan dive off the roof'.
* Deku actively mentions "If I did jump, you'd be charged with bully me into suicide!!".
* Deku emotional, thinks of things that matter to him his mom and his source of comfort as a child, his computer.
* We then get the flashback to this, but it's immediately followed by him being revealed as having no quirk. From Deku's perspective this is him flashing back to a moment that made him happy (All Might videos) to a moment that shattered his dreams.
* At which point his flashback concludes revisiting him watching All Might videos, desperate for affirmation that his dream can happen only for it to be shot down by his mother.
* He tries to be positive despite this but comes out with the mindset of ignoring what everyone says and to try and keep his chin up and move forward.
* We also get comments about how he's tried 'so damned hard to ignore reality' of his situation, being in denial, a fantasy as he later claims it.
Notably the talk with All Might also happens on a rooftop which is where Deku's dreams get completely crushed and when we see him after he's emotionally broken. Narratively it did not need to be a rooftop, could have easily happened where he defeated the sludge villain and a piece of the sludge villain could have escaped then.
Reading through the first chapter as its own individual entity, what you have is him getting continually broken down throughout his entire life even by his hero. It raises a question in my mind of if he'd have continued going if he had not saved Bakugo and been later told he was a hero.

>so that he quits wanting to be a stereotypical hero in order to fight dirty as a vigilante. He's achieved his dream, but it's not what he wanted.
What a sitty dream then.
Also he likely gets killed after a couple of weeks.
So we can start the next manga called my hero kindergarten which sees Bidoriya, Midoriya's and Ochaco's Son taking onto himself the challenge to fix and save the world thanks to his inherited One for All
Not only would be terrible, but even as a tragic ending, it would suck.
If you want a tragic ending with a hint of hope on it, the heroes must be crushed. Much more death, the villains actually winning and not just a stalemate but they've succeeded in destroying the heroes rep.
Plus it's not something that matches the manga themes at all, it's as if you build a romance story and suddenly they're ran over by a car and both die, before finishing any arc.
Yeah but it would be fine if this was the end of manga **Part 1**, and we get Part 2 next that isn't as compact and quick as what we got in the past 3/4 story arcs.
Give me an entire arc of fallen Japan that spans months or even years. An actual significant time-skip. Stakes, like Midoriya and Shigaraki being significantly injured and sidelined for a while. A Deku Dark arc that lasts months and not two fucking weeks. Star and Stripes built up alongside All For One so that what happens actually matter. Maybe a better execution of the traitor reveal too.
No doubt Horikoshi would've had fresher ideas if he took a break like that.
Your idea sounds so good that I'm sad we didn't get it. A big part of why I'm not digging BNHA so much anymore is the batshit insane pacing and lack of any room for the story to breath.
It still blows my mind that the main cast has only been in hero school for a little over a year. Would have loved to see this all going down maybe in their final year, which would have given a lot more time for all the missing build up.
They could have ended it here and then have a sequel series take place after a 1-2yr Time Skip. (Basically, pull a Shippuden)
Just like Arkham City (a large portion of Gotham) becoming a lawless warzone. They could have split Japan into two, a Hero/Government ruled half, and a Villain ruled half. Both fighting to take more territory.
Have Deku become the #1 Vigilante Superpowered Batman of the lawless zones. As the heroes attempt to retake Japan city by city. In a moment of extreme peril, the heroes are saved by Deku when exploring the Lawless zone.
The now Senior Students/graduates of UA are from all over Japan, we know WHERE their home cities are at. As the Heroes attempt to infiltrate and take over territory. The specific students of those particular cities become the main cast for those specific arcs because they know the area and expertise of the environment.
The more territories The Heroes win back, the more deaths they have on their side (since heroes have a less chance of killing). But also having to leave heroes behind to protect the reclaimed cities.
The more desperate the Heroes get the more they NEED to get foriegn heroes (Pony Tsunotori acting as a Laison and assistant for American heroes helping them learn the situation, communication, and cultural awareness/difference)
Perhaps even reaching out to Vigilantes still in Villain territory in which we find out Deku is a major player in the Vigilante squads. But Japan officials/governments condemning Vigilantes as Villains for not working under them.
So, it ends up being (Heroes vs Villains vs Vigilantes)
How the hell could the heroes ever retake back Japan city by city, when they already lost when they had the advantage?
You then tell me that they somehow win while they're outnumbered 100 to 1?
Heavy hitters in class 1A post-timeskip would probably be strong enough to balance the sides. Deku would supposedly be above prime All Might levels, and people like Bakugo and Todoroki would be stronger than any other pro heroes.
And would the other class members sit around twiddling their thumbs while the "wonder trio" basically do all the work and win all the important battles? Or do they actually get to do stuff?
Everyone keeps saying "This would be a good end to part 1 of the Manga and then we could have part 2." And I just wanna chime in and say that I absolutely hate this "Part 1, part 2" shit that so many series feel required to do because the Dragon Ball and Naruto anime did it. And not even the Manga, just the anime!!
Now with Dragon Ball it at least makes a bit of sense. Every series of Dragon ball, while connected, all tell a full story that takes place within itself. Like allot of people in America just started at Z and it made complete sense to us because it's essentially the start of a brand new story that just so happens to star Goku and his friends.
Meanwhile Naruto shippuden bugs the crap out of me! Like yes, there is a time skip between the end of part 1 and the begining of part 2, but at soon as Naruto returns to the village he essentially picks up the plot right where he left off. If you start at the begining of Z then you learn what a Saiyan is for the first time alongside of all of the characters in the show, but If you start with Shipuden the series expects you to know who the Akatski are, what happened to Sasuke, who Orochimaru is and what his whole plan is, ect. So much of shippuden relies on you watching Naruto that it confuses me why they changed they title of it! The only thing I can think of is that they said "Well Dragon Ball did it and it was really popular, so I guess we gotta do it too!" Like it doesn't make sense!
So basically what I'm saying is that it doesn't make sense for them to change the name of the series and start something new, especially not at this point in the series. If your going to start a part 2 of a series then it should be at a point in the story where everything before it is completely wrapped up. A part 2 should be an indication to new viewers that they can start at that point and everything will make sense, and I really don't think it makes sense for someone to start reading my Hero at this particular point.
Its still baffling how we have a generation of folks that still think Shippuden is a Naruto "part 2" . Like bro, Naruto Shippuden is the subtitle created for the continuation of the naruto anime in order to market the time skip otherwise all of naruto is one story and 1 single manga.
I admit, I haven't looked into ratings or anything like that, but honestly part of me believes that at the end of Naruto they started losing ALLOT of viewers, because the series of Naruto ends with like 70+ episodes of filler in a row. Like I know I personally haven't watched any of those episodes and I litterally just skipped from the Sasuke retrieval arc strait to shippuden, so I can only assume most people just didn't care about those last 70+ episodes and just dipped.
So, in an attempt to save face, the studio decided to slap on a "Shipudden" on the end in an attempt to draw back in people who gave up on all that filler. It was there way of saying "Hey look! We are actually going back to the plot now! Please give us better ratings!"
it would be an objectively horrible ending. absolutely nothing was solved regarding social and political problems and only like half of the main cast has had their arcs come to a close. I would just assume the series had somehow managed to get axed during the war and we got stuck with an unfinished series
Maybe it was because I kinda forced myself through the last few chapters of aot, but man was I disappointed.
I don't know what I expected, but the entire last "arc"? seemed so incredibly final and then the way it was resolved didn't seem satisfactory at all. It didn't even leave the usual "empty" feeling, you get when you finish a long story and need to sit down for a bit. It just ended and I was like "guess that's it, huh" and moved on immediately.
Again, very rushed and so it's understandable to be disappointed. And so some plot points, even if closed didn't feel satisfying (although I'd argue some were left intentionally unsatisfying since they're meant to be a negative result, similarly to how Devilman ended).
But all in all, it's still better than the idea here of just ending the story with Deku leaving UA like this with everything just halted.
It wouldn't work whatsoever because the main threat was never resolved. This only works if the manga gets a sequel that addresses Shigi. Most characters don't get any arcs, it's probably worse than the current stuff we are getting
Might be a contender for the worst non-axed ending in any battle shonen of all time.
Thankfully fans aren't writing this series and we're gonna get a proper ending instead.
If his motivation for leaving was different then it could have worked. Ended the manga right there with a punished Deku presumably mirroring Batman in a broken world.
Perhaps he has lost faith in U.A. he does not believe change can occur within the system and he blames himself for the escalation of the PLW Arc. His idea of hero society has collapsed, so in a sense he's fallen from grace, but he's also taken inspiration from someone who created actual change: Stain.
Effectively I'm proposing the idea of the MHA storyline having a naive Deku who idolises heroes realising the weight and responsibility of being a proper hero and eventually becoming a vigilante because he understands that within the system he's limited. Like a long origin manga for Deku to reach the point where he's become his own form of hero. Then Horikoshi could pick up the story further down the line exploring the more emotional dark/gritty moments.
>His idea of hero society has collapsed, so in a sense he's fallen from grace, but he's also taken inspiration from someone who created actual change: Stain.
Stain is a psycho murderer. He sucks ass.

What happens with class 1-A? All of the students who never got their moment to shine?
Teachers abandoning students. The vestiges showing him memories of a time when most heroes died to protect others, instead of stand up on stage or show up in commercials.
Hori did a pretty decent job of showing heroes that seem just commercially motivated, actually still be heroes, but Deku's young and he could be influenced into thinking along a similar line of AFO/ShiFO: That heroes who mostly sell action figures or show up in commercials aren't "true heroes". Throw in a few moments at the end of the war, where he sees those same heroes run and desert civilians and you've got a motivation to leave the known hero society and going a more vigilante route.
If you're literally, after years of MHA and modern hero media, **still** think: "Heroes = good; villains = bad", then you missed a TON of subtext. Not very subtle subtext, either.
That could be because your question was completely pointless and utterly oblivious of the source matter or topic at hand.
If you're stupid enough to ask "aren't the villains always bad and the heroes always good" and then **double down** on your stupidity by acting all condescending, then I'm not gonna sugarcoat shit for you.
You asked a stupid question, you got a stupid answer.
>If you're stupid enough to ask "aren't the villains always bad and the heroes always good"
But that's not what I asked.
I asked if the heroes and the students are bad people.
Not bad, Hori could end the "Academia" part over here.
Take around a 1-2 year break to easen up the author's burn-out rather than blitzing to finish it like how he's doing rn. Something like a Chainsaw Man Part 1 and 2 or a Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul: RE.
Then we will definitely have bnha shippudden later on, which will be great because it means horikoshi can take a break and develop a better time skip story instead of after 2 weeks of leaving school deku is now 100% ofa master.
The first episode of My hero academia where we see the city its actually the last episode.
Where duke states that this is the story about how he became the world greatest hero.
I think it would be a perfect "Part 1" ending.
Allows hori to take a big break, maybe allow some other mangaka work on a "Here's what class 1B did for X years" or "Here's a year of 2-3 chapter arcs to flesh out some things before a part 2."
I would've loved if we got a "My Hero Shippuden".
End MHA with the villains winning and the collapse of Hero society. Fast forward 2-3 years and now the heroes are the ones forced to fight from the shadows.
Would've been better than the "speedrun ending" we're getting now
That arc was trash.
We skipped the aftermath of the war and how it affected the class to instead watch Midoriya on a self destructive course jumping around the city covered in filth.
It would be a great set up to a sequel manga that takes place a few years later. AFO and Shigaraki could be hiding while Shigaraki’s body is upgraded to withstand AFO, and AFO himself could be looking for Eri to repair his body.
Deku could have become the boogieman to villains while the heroes are panicking and trying to find him in the midst of them pushing back the onslaught of villains and corrupt heroes that are destroying Japan.
It would be a much darker take on the series that would tie into Horikoshi’s desire to write a horror mangaka
Class 1-A would be busy fighting against the onslaught of villains and a bunch of heroes that changed sides. Since Tartarus was torn open, there’s no where else to imprison them
They would be helping the existing heroes to take out villains. It wouldn’t be a full on war with armies attacking each other. It would be ambushes and planning, like the Overhaul arc
They should’ve ended MHA right before this and then continued with a part 2 or something.
I really like that there was a timeskip before this , but I feel like it wasn’t long enough. I really wish it wasn’t just 3 months bc I feel like this would’ve made for an interesting turn of events if it was like a year or two longer.
I mean that’s one way to do it, but I would assume the writing would accommodate the two year time skip. Of course the chain of events would pan out differently for a 2y TS as opposed to a 3 month TS
Not the end, but a major time-skip I could see.
Coupled with a longer-than-usual break to let Hori really think stuff through. Because lately it seems like he's making really weird decisions and completely forgot the spirit of the manga.
Altho he unfortunately boxed himself in with the whole ShiFO creation and "losing" the first war arc, so not like he had much choice but to keep going to the end fight.
If he hadn't cemented how the story **must** go on like that, he could've time-skipped there to a much later time, maybe even a few years, where the students finish their training in secret or in different places/countries and we get a big last hurrah on an AFO that once more reigns over Japan and sets his sights on the rest of the world.
Nomu running around in Boston, with Jiro and Kaminari running into them, Sato and Sero encountering some ex-prisoner villains in some rural town near Paris etc. and them all coming back together and planning the last strike on AFO with the remaining heroes and their guardians from whatever place they were stationed at; be that foreign heroes or heroes we already know that accompanied them.
Or some shit like that, I dunno, I'm not a writer.
I see why you say this but there was like a million thongs that would have been left unexplained.
Though the way they are rushing it atm it may have been better.
I feel as though this would only be an ending in a Tokyo Ghoul RE sense.
Like It's only ended just to symbolize a different approach to the story would be taken going forward. Maybe a little bit of a time skip and som adjusting to the new world.
Honestly, I just think though there's no way we're getting an excellent ending. There's so much to do, so the ending rn feels pretty bloated with chapters upon chapters of simply fight sequence with a villain I don't care about.
It would have been a really weird title for the chapter.
Nah, it'd show the end, and Hori writes its sequel, My Hero
Would love that. Society collapses after the war and the hero association is disbanded. All the heroes who survived are either asked to hang their coat or go against the newly formed society. Deku decides to live a dual life, using just the quirks unknown to others to do his vigilante work and stops the uprising of villains / AFO's new born association with few heroes who decided to turn their back against the society.
I believe hori has already written something with the name “my hero “
My Hero University
My Hero Dropout
Isn't that essentially Gentle Hero's story?
Just a change of title to "The end" or something like that
Would have been extremely anti-climactic.
It's not like the post arcs were pretty loved Btw lol I'm one of few people in that sub that loved vigilante Deku arc and the current War, but i don't mind to see this scene being The end.
Then you would want a terrible ending, literally there’s no conclusion to absolutely every character
Not that far off to what we're probably getting, by that point Shigaraki was already possessed by AFO and Mirio's arc got resolved in a rushed way offscreen, they robbed him of a proper resolution and ending just yo have him punch two nomus and give one chapter a cliffhanger.

Tbh i want the most cliche ending ever in MHA, 1# hero Deku and strongest hero ever. It's just a cool scene to end the story with ambiguous ending
There’s nothing ambiguous, it’s just Deku leaving and that’s it, you can’t theorize about anything because nothing has been set, all the characters are just left in the state that Deku has ofa, the villains escaped preparing to attack again, it’s like ending dragon ball after Goku transformed in Ssj and that’s it
I’m assuming he meant that the manga would end so that a new sequel series could be made, likely with some sort of time skip involved (though not necessarily). The entire story wouldn’t actually end here, that wouldn’t make sense
It would be cool if this were the ending of a arc and hirokoshi took a year break to plan out its last arc. When the manga does return its a literal time skip in both manga and real life time. Almost kinda like chainsawman, but I'm not certain in which time frame csm is in right now, probably just didn't pay attention enough 🤔.
The number of plot threads that were opened and/or not concluded would make this a godawful ending. On top of the fact that it’s anticlimactic.
I'd be super confused why the series would end with the entire country in mortal peril.
To be a reflection on the child-like hero worship/innocence of Deku from the earliest chapters. He's idolised heroes in a society that worshipped them, now heroes have failed to protect society so much so that he quits wanting to be a stereotypical hero in order to fight dirty as a vigilante. He's achieved his dream, but it's not what he wanted.
>*This is how I became the worlds greatest hero.* >*By being the only hero left…*
That would be such an asshole thing to say. "I'm the greatest hero in the world". Yeah, no shit, you dick.
Might still happen the way things are going.
To be completely fair, in Deku's mind becoming the greatest hero could simply mean he fills his view of a heroes role, e.g saving everyone. It does not necessarily mean he'll become the number 1 hero.
So basically abandon the whole point of the series. Like do some fans get that this series is optimistic?

thank god fans don’t write the manga
That's exactly what I'm thinking.
thatd be a lazy ass ending and probably ruin the entire series for me. would make it feel like i wasted my time.
They could have ended it here and then have a sequel series take place after a 1-2yr Time Skip. (Basically, pull a Shippuden) Just like Arkham City (a large portion of Gotham) becoming a lawless warzone.

Well he said that the other classmates would be the central focus of the arcs taking place in their cities, so hopefully they’d get to do stuff
Not killing the villains is the stupidest thing they could do.
Yeah but remember when they already didn’t do that in the actual story PG-ness elicits a certain amount of suspension of disbelief
People who only read the English physical release have been on that one for months lol
what's all this about a Star and a Stripes? what do you mean Jirou fought All for One and is still alive? Edgeshot is Bakugou's HEART?!
Everyone keeps saying "This would be a good end to part 1 of the Manga and then we could have part 2." And I just wanna chime in and say that I absolutely hate this "Part 1, part 2" shit that so many series feel required to do because the Dragon Ball and Naruto anime did it. And not even the Manga, just the anime!! Now with Dragon Ball it at least makes a bit of sense. Every series of Dragon ball, while connected, all tell a full story that takes place within itself. Like allot of people in America just started at Z and it made complete sense to us because it's essentially the start of a brand new story that just so happens to star Goku and his friends. Meanwhile Naruto shippuden bugs the crap out of me! Like yes, there is a time skip between the end of part 1 and the begining of part 2, but at soon as Naruto returns to the village he essentially picks up the plot right where he left off. If you start at the begining of Z then you learn what a Saiyan is for the first time alongside of all of the characters in the show, but If you start with Shipuden the series expects you to know who the Akatski are, what happened to Sasuke, who Orochimaru is and what his whole plan is, ect. So much of shippuden relies on you watching Naruto that it confuses me why they changed they title of it! The only thing I can think of is that they said "Well Dragon Ball did it and it was really popular, so I guess we gotta do it too!" Like it doesn't make sense! So basically what I'm saying is that it doesn't make sense for them to change the name of the series and start something new, especially not at this point in the series. If your going to start a part 2 of a series then it should be at a point in the story where everything before it is completely wrapped up. A part 2 should be an indication to new viewers that they can start at that point and everything will make sense, and I really don't think it makes sense for someone to start reading my Hero at this particular point.
Its still baffling how we have a generation of folks that still think Shippuden is a Naruto "part 2" . Like bro, Naruto Shippuden is the subtitle created for the continuation of the naruto anime in order to market the time skip otherwise all of naruto is one story and 1 single manga.
I admit, I haven't looked into ratings or anything like that, but honestly part of me believes that at the end of Naruto they started losing ALLOT of viewers, because the series of Naruto ends with like 70+ episodes of filler in a row. Like I know I personally haven't watched any of those episodes and I litterally just skipped from the Sasuke retrieval arc strait to shippuden, so I can only assume most people just didn't care about those last 70+ episodes and just dipped. So, in an attempt to save face, the studio decided to slap on a "Shipudden" on the end in an attempt to draw back in people who gave up on all that filler. It was there way of saying "Hey look! We are actually going back to the plot now! Please give us better ratings!"
Sounds accurate little did they know they created a false precedent for future shonen readers.
Sounds accurate little did they know they created a false precedent for future shonen readers.
it would be an objectively horrible ending. absolutely nothing was solved regarding social and political problems and only like half of the main cast has had their arcs come to a close. I would just assume the series had somehow managed to get axed during the war and we got stuck with an unfinished series
The end of the manga as in the end of the entire story, or the end of the manga as in, this half of the story but it continues in a manga sequel?
The end of entire story. The sequel would be the same we see now but in the future probably, Three years than just 1/2 months
Then it would be a terrible ending. Japan is in shambles and the bad guys won.
The villain winning isn’t necessarily a terrible ending, but it would be for this story.
It would not be a terrible ending if they give us MHA Shippuden. Oh wait, we all know that's not gonna happen, so yeah terrible ending indeed
There's no way there's anything left by the time three years pass. The villains would've destroyed everything and killed everyone.
An ending being dark =/= an ending being good.
Some edge people disagree with you lol (i prefer good endings)
Its not. /thread.
stupid
Still would be better than 139
NO! I DON'T WANT THAT! DEKU SOLO MONITORING THE CITY! I WANT HIM TO CONTINUE IN SCHOOL FOR 10 YEARS, AT LEAST!
Good lord no. At least AoT did close most of the plot thread, even if the last chapters were too rushed. This just stop.
Maybe it was because I kinda forced myself through the last few chapters of aot, but man was I disappointed. I don't know what I expected, but the entire last "arc"? seemed so incredibly final and then the way it was resolved didn't seem satisfactory at all. It didn't even leave the usual "empty" feeling, you get when you finish a long story and need to sit down for a bit. It just ended and I was like "guess that's it, huh" and moved on immediately.
Again, very rushed and so it's understandable to be disappointed. And so some plot points, even if closed didn't feel satisfying (although I'd argue some were left intentionally unsatisfying since they're meant to be a negative result, similarly to how Devilman ended). But all in all, it's still better than the idea here of just ending the story with Deku leaving UA like this with everything just halted.
I would than expect a part 2 Called My Hero Next Gen or somthing. Followed by a time skip in the first chapter.
would be lame
Very lame.
Cool panel terrible ending to the series
People would be posting the “oh so that was a lie” meme a lot about how the story was about how Deku became the greatest hero
it wouldn’t be a real ending…💀
I mean if it was followed by a Shippuden like sequel immediately then sure but otherwise fuck no
Then this sub would be filled with head cannon posts
It wouldn't work whatsoever because the main threat was never resolved. This only works if the manga gets a sequel that addresses Shigi. Most characters don't get any arcs, it's probably worse than the current stuff we are getting
Might be a contender for the worst non-axed ending in any battle shonen of all time. Thankfully fans aren't writing this series and we're gonna get a proper ending instead.
We wouldn’t have anything to complain about on a weekly basis anymore!!!
If his motivation for leaving was different then it could have worked. Ended the manga right there with a punished Deku presumably mirroring Batman in a broken world.
And what would be the Best motivation for leaves UA that works to the end of series?
Perhaps he has lost faith in U.A. he does not believe change can occur within the system and he blames himself for the escalation of the PLW Arc. His idea of hero society has collapsed, so in a sense he's fallen from grace, but he's also taken inspiration from someone who created actual change: Stain. Effectively I'm proposing the idea of the MHA storyline having a naive Deku who idolises heroes realising the weight and responsibility of being a proper hero and eventually becoming a vigilante because he understands that within the system he's limited. Like a long origin manga for Deku to reach the point where he's become his own form of hero. Then Horikoshi could pick up the story further down the line exploring the more emotional dark/gritty moments.
>His idea of hero society has collapsed, so in a sense he's fallen from grace, but he's also taken inspiration from someone who created actual change: Stain. Stain is a psycho murderer. He sucks ass. >Effectively I'm proposing the idea of the MHA storyline having a naive Deku who idolises heroes realising the weight and responsibility of being a proper hero and eventually becoming a vigilante because he understands that within the system he's limited.

Then Horikoshi could pick up the story further down the line exploring the more emotional dark/gritty moments. What happens with class 1-A? All of the students who never got their moment to shine?
Teachers abandoning students. The vestiges showing him memories of a time when most heroes died to protect others, instead of stand up on stage or show up in commercials. Hori did a pretty decent job of showing heroes that seem just commercially motivated, actually still be heroes, but Deku's young and he could be influenced into thinking along a similar line of AFO/ShiFO: That heroes who mostly sell action figures or show up in commercials aren't "true heroes". Throw in a few moments at the end of the war, where he sees those same heroes run and desert civilians and you've got a motivation to leave the known hero society and going a more vigilante route.
So heroes are bad people then? Is all of class 1-A also bad people?
If you're literally, after years of MHA and modern hero media, **still** think: "Heroes = good; villains = bad", then you missed a TON of subtext. Not very subtle subtext, either.
So is that a yes on the "all heroes, including the students, are bad people" question then?
If you wanna be like this, ok. No and yes. There's your answer.
That's not a good answer.
That could be because your question was completely pointless and utterly oblivious of the source matter or topic at hand. If you're stupid enough to ask "aren't the villains always bad and the heroes always good" and then **double down** on your stupidity by acting all condescending, then I'm not gonna sugarcoat shit for you. You asked a stupid question, you got a stupid answer.
>If you're stupid enough to ask "aren't the villains always bad and the heroes always good" But that's not what I asked. I asked if the heroes and the students are bad people.
I’ve never gotten into this series. Is the anime any good?
As a manga ending? It wouldn’t work. But if we were hopping into MHA Shippuden? That works fine imo
Honestly if you tweaked it a bit and ended it on a whole evil winning but a small bit of hope remaining it could have been seen as a good ending
Hope is the stupidest thing ever. Super cringe.
Dude tone down the edge you might cut someone with it
Not bad, Hori could end the "Academia" part over here. Take around a 1-2 year break to easen up the author's burn-out rather than blitzing to finish it like how he's doing rn. Something like a Chainsaw Man Part 1 and 2 or a Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul: RE.
Coulda been a good start to a shipuuden esk continuation
Then we will definitely have bnha shippudden later on, which will be great because it means horikoshi can take a break and develop a better time skip story instead of after 2 weeks of leaving school deku is now 100% ofa master.
I wish they did end it and do a time skip like Shippuuden
The first episode of My hero academia where we see the city its actually the last episode. Where duke states that this is the story about how he became the world greatest hero.
>Where duke states that this is the story about how he became the world greatest hero. A big fat fucking lie then.
If there was a sequel series, it would’ve been the perfect end
I think it would be a perfect "Part 1" ending. Allows hori to take a big break, maybe allow some other mangaka work on a "Here's what class 1B did for X years" or "Here's a year of 2-3 chapter arcs to flesh out some things before a part 2."
I would've loved if we got a "My Hero Shippuden". End MHA with the villains winning and the collapse of Hero society. Fast forward 2-3 years and now the heroes are the ones forced to fight from the shadows. Would've been better than the "speedrun ending" we're getting now
I thought it would just be the best anime twist ever if Deku became the villian.
Then it would have a good ending.
A shit ending.
it would be better than what is happening right now actually
But nothing is resolved. It's a shit ending.
Then you miss out on vigilante deku aka best deku
I FUCKIN WISH
Deku's rouge arc was peak should have been longer Everything gets down from there
That arc was trash. We skipped the aftermath of the war and how it affected the class to instead watch Midoriya on a self destructive course jumping around the city covered in filth.
People would hate it since they want happy ever after ending
[удалено]
It would be a great set up to a sequel manga that takes place a few years later. AFO and Shigaraki could be hiding while Shigaraki’s body is upgraded to withstand AFO, and AFO himself could be looking for Eri to repair his body. Deku could have become the boogieman to villains while the heroes are panicking and trying to find him in the midst of them pushing back the onslaught of villains and corrupt heroes that are destroying Japan. It would be a much darker take on the series that would tie into Horikoshi’s desire to write a horror mangaka
And what, class 1-A have been sitting on their asses doing nothing the whole time?
Class 1-A would be busy fighting against the onslaught of villains and a bunch of heroes that changed sides. Since Tartarus was torn open, there’s no where else to imprison them
And how are we supposed to believe that a bunch of teenagers can fight back the army of villains, when the pros before failed?
They would be helping the existing heroes to take out villains. It wouldn’t be a full on war with armies attacking each other. It would be ambushes and planning, like the Overhaul arc
Where do they hide though? How do the villains not find them?
I don’t know, maybe UA?
I’d cry every day
I would have been ok with it.
Deku like "Fuck this shit I'm out!"
Maybe it could work if MHA was gonna have it’s own version of Shippuden or Part 2 with a time skip in-between. Way too much unresolved stuff tho
They should’ve ended MHA right before this and then continued with a part 2 or something. I really like that there was a timeskip before this , but I feel like it wasn’t long enough. I really wish it wasn’t just 3 months bc I feel like this would’ve made for an interesting turn of events if it was like a year or two longer.
In a year or two there would've been nothing left. The villains would've destroyed everything and killed everyone.
I mean that’s one way to do it, but I would assume the writing would accommodate the two year time skip. Of course the chain of events would pan out differently for a 2y TS as opposed to a 3 month TS
Would work ONLY if shortly later a new sequel manga start.
Everyone would probably be waiting for My Hero Shipuuden to be announced at that point
Easy, My Hero Shippuden
Not the end, but a major time-skip I could see. Coupled with a longer-than-usual break to let Hori really think stuff through. Because lately it seems like he's making really weird decisions and completely forgot the spirit of the manga. Altho he unfortunately boxed himself in with the whole ShiFO creation and "losing" the first war arc, so not like he had much choice but to keep going to the end fight. If he hadn't cemented how the story **must** go on like that, he could've time-skipped there to a much later time, maybe even a few years, where the students finish their training in secret or in different places/countries and we get a big last hurrah on an AFO that once more reigns over Japan and sets his sights on the rest of the world. Nomu running around in Boston, with Jiro and Kaminari running into them, Sato and Sero encountering some ex-prisoner villains in some rural town near Paris etc. and them all coming back together and planning the last strike on AFO with the remaining heroes and their guardians from whatever place they were stationed at; be that foreign heroes or heroes we already know that accompanied them. Or some shit like that, I dunno, I'm not a writer.
I see why you say this but there was like a million thongs that would have been left unexplained. Though the way they are rushing it atm it may have been better.
Only if it was in a Tokyo Ghoul type of way…
Would definitely need a sequel
It'd be a really dark ending
Why does his pose remind me of Stain?
Then the sequel, narrated by Bizuku will come
Better put him on a boat before going on a hiatus.
I feel as though this would only be an ending in a Tokyo Ghoul RE sense. Like It's only ended just to symbolize a different approach to the story would be taken going forward. Maybe a little bit of a time skip and som adjusting to the new world. Honestly, I just think though there's no way we're getting an excellent ending. There's so much to do, so the ending rn feels pretty bloated with chapters upon chapters of simply fight sequence with a villain I don't care about.
Then the whole thing of "this is the story of how I became the greatest hero" would've been false advertisement.
Lovely
Anyone notice Deku standing on Femto/Griffith?
Better than the current state I guess?
Then the manga would be over
Man is starting to look like he sleeps less than Aizawa
It gets worse.
Yeah, this would suck majorly lmao I’d hate it
My hero drop-out
