Children like Bakugo, Shoto, and of course the protagonist of the story, Izuku, looked up to and idolized All Might as they grew up. He was the reason generations of aspiring heroes joined the prestigious Hero Academy to become heroes, and he was the spark that started everyone's favorite protagonists on their own journey. However, as the story progressed, All Might's journey itself became quite cumbersome. He eventually lost most of his powers, and eventually all of them.

How could everyone lose their powers?

All Might transferred his powers to Deku.

All Might was known as a hero strong enough to take first place at the beginning of the story. However, it was soon revealed to fans that All Might was actually very underpowered. Especially after All For One was injured during the fight and ended up winning. Due to serious injuries, All Might was no longer able to fight at his best for long periods of time. Because of this, he began looking for a successor and initially turned to Mirio. However, through a twist of fate, Deku proved his selfless hero nature and became the next user of One For All.

When All Might inherited One For All, whispers of this power remained in his body, and he eventually burned all his power on Kamino, where he fought All For One for what seemed to be the last time. Standing tall as the greatest hero in history, All Might surpassed all his limitations to end All For One's tyrannical reign, sending him to Tartarus in the process. This brought the end of his era, causing him to lose all his powers, which meant that Deku now had to shoulder the burden of the Hero Association.

All Might in the final war

All Might challenges All For One.

After losing his powers, All Might was crippled to the point where he was unable to fight even the weakest villains. His level of strength was nowhere near what it was before and even his stamina was severely damaged. His injuries left him unable to perform the most basic combat-related activities, and it became clear that he would never be able to play the role of a hero again. Before that, Endeavor, who was the number 2 hero, eventually rose to number 1 and tried to fill All Might's place. He did reasonably well, but he wasn't All Might.

For All Might himself, the sense of helplessness became more evident as time passed, and for someone who carried the entire Hero Society on his back and saved everyone with a smile, this sense of helplessness was clearly a big blow. All he could do was leave everything to the next generation of heroes and hope for the best, and that's what he did for most of the story, from when he lost his powers until the Final War Saga. Even as All For One and Shigaraki rioted on the battlefield and heroes were dying left, right, and center, All Might could do nothing but observe. But this turns into the climax of the arc where he finally takes action.

All Might's new power

Armored All Might Comes In

After hearing that All For One was growing stronger and had even surpassed his prime, All Might couldn't sit back and watch. He was seen ordering Shoto and Iida to go after Dabi and leave All For One to him. He sets out to fight All For One's most powerful form despite having no Quirk, and does so with great confidence in his own abilities. In the end, Deku, once a wayward boy, ended up becoming his hero. In his whimsical state, Toshinori could not help but admire the boy who tearfully asked him if he could become a hero that fateful day.

All Might, who asked himself the same question, goes into battle with All For One. Fans might think he's going to get hurt or even die in this fight, but it's important to remember that All Might isn't empty-handed. He seems to be carrying around some sort of hero gear. This equipment was most likely created by Mei Hatsume, and if we had to guess, it could be a full-body suit created for All Might to regain a reasonable level of strength. From what fans saw in the previous chapter, Toshinori was carrying a briefcase as soon as he saw All For Ond. It's possible that this briefcase contains armor that surrounds his body and allows him to fight All For One as best as he can. Either way, All Might doesn't go into battle helpless and defenseless. He has a power-up that he wants to use, and considering that he, like Deku, wants to change fate for good, All Might will do more than just stop All For One without dying.

My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 21 is scheduled to be released on October 12, 2024. MHA Season 7 Episode 21 is available to stream on Crunchyroll and airs at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.
