by

This article contains spoilers from My Hero Academia‘s Epilogue.

Kohei Horikoshi’s “My Hero Academia” remains a beloved series among its followers, a year after wrapping up the main storyline. The story concluded with the Final War arc, offering an exhilarating clash between Izuku Midoriya and Shigaraki Tomura, who was eventually possessed by All For One.

As anticipated, Izuku emerged victorious in the battle and subsequently saved the world, transforming into an extraordinary hero. Yet, unexpectedly, Izuku also forfeited the power of One For All. Frequently, fans ponder over how powerful Pro Hero Izuku Midoriya truly is. Although he hasn’t demonstrated his full potential, Kohei Horikoshi has provided readers with a sense of his prowess as a Pro Hero, several years post the war’s conclusion. In this context, “power level” refers to the extent of his abilities and strengths as a hero.

Izuku Midoriya’s Power Level Is Comparable To Before According To Horikoshi

Izuku Midoriya Is The Number 4 Hero In Japan

  • Izuku Lost The One For All Against Shigaraki
  • He Gained A Hero Armor In Exchange

Based on the narrative by Kohei Horikoshi, it’s evident that Izuku Midoriya possesses extraordinary power even in adulthood. Despite losing the power of the One For All Quirk, his strength remains formidable.

Stand proud, young Midoriya! You’ve earned this too. — All Might

primarily for two significant factors: one being his extraordinary physical power, a trait that remains formidable even after losing access to One For All. This strength is something that will not diminish and since he’s still growing, it can only grow stronger with time.

One significant factor behind this is that Izuku Midoriya received an armor, akin to the one All Might donned during the Final War of “My Hero Academia”, which has substantially improved due to technological advancements. As stated by Horikoshi himself, this hero armor mirrors the abilities of the One For All Quirk and enables Izuku to merge diverse abilities, making him an incredibly powerful Pro Hero.

And now, in Number 4, the One For All Hero, Deku! — Horikoshi

To put it simply, being the Number 4 Pro Hero in “My Hero Academia” at this moment demonstrates that Izuku is incredibly powerful. Notably, he has surpassed Bakugo Katsuki, a character often compared to Mirio, suggesting they are equal. This means that if Izuku has moved ahead of Bakugo, they must be on par and if they’re at the same level, it implies Izuku should rank among the strongest characters globally.

Izuku Still Aims To Get Stronger In My Hero Academia

Deku Could Be The Number 1 In The Future

Technological advancements are consistently making strides each day, and Izuku is steadily becoming stronger as a result. Currently, he ranks as the Fourth Hero, but it’s likely that his potential will take him to even greater heights. What’s surprising is how quickly Izuku ascended to the position of the Fourth Hero within only a few months. This suggests that he is rapidly climbing up the hierarchy, and there’s a high probability that he will continue to rise in the future.

Ever since I’ve admired All Might, my hero, I’ve been yearning to emulate his greatness. And with that dream burning bright within me, there’s a strong possibility I’ll ascend to the zenith of Japan’s rankings in the forthcoming months. All it calls for is us fans to be patient and enjoy the thrilling ride as Horikoshi continues to unveil more one-shot masterpieces.

I’ve just wrapped up a thrilling journey with the My Hero Academia manga, spanning an impressive 431 chapters that are all accessible via Manga Plus. As for the anime adaptation, fans like me are eagerly waiting for its final season, set to drop later this year. If you haven’t already, you can catch up on it all on Crunchyroll.
