Eri’s narrative in “My Hero Academia” is profoundly sad due to the harsh childhood she endured because of her Quirk. Born with an extraordinary ability called Rewind, she can revert a living being’s physical state up until their death. A tragic incident occurred when she accidentally erased her father from existence as a young child. This event led to her mother viewing her as a curse and abandoning her, leaving her in the care of her grandfather who is the leader of the Shie Hassaikai yakuza organization.

In due course, Eri’s grandfather entered a coma, leaving her under the guardianship of Overhaul, or Kai Chisaki, a man who exploited Eri for cruel experiments. Overhaul extracted Eri’s cells and harnessed her quirk’s abilities to produce bullets capable of suppressing quirks. In this process, he subtly controlled Eri, making her believe she had no choice but to cooperate.

Eri experienced prolonged periods of mistreatment, often feeling lonely, terrified, and convinced that her hardships were indispensable. That was until Deku and Mirio saved her during the Shie Hassaikai operation. Following her rescue, she found refuge at U.A. High School under Aizawa’s guidance, initiating a healing process for both her body and mind. Under their watchful eyes, she learned to manage her Quirk, experiencing a youth that had previously eluded her.

Eri’s Role During The Final War

How She Sacrificed A Part Of Herself

In the climactic battle, all our protagonists gave their utmost to vanquish the antagonists. It was far from simple, with many of them sustaining severe wounds, even Midoriya. Throughout this conflict, Eri’s presence was relatively minimal as most citizens and non-professional heroes stayed securely out of harm’s way.

In chapter 420, it’s Eri who shows up at the end of the war. She courageously removes her horn to rescue Izuku from his wounds, even though she understands that this act could potentially harm or take away her quirk. This selfless action is a result of her deep gratitude towards Izuku for rescuing her from Overhaul earlier on.

The strength for her peculiarity lies within her horns, which Aizawa harnesses to reverse Deku’s physical state, restoring his arms and mending some of his wounds. Additionally, Aizawa reminds Deku that he is not permitted to perish until after he listens to Eri sing.

Eri’s Life After The War

Living A Normal And Peaceful Life

Following the great war, Eri comes under the protective custody of Mandalay, her previous savior, who officially takes on the role as her guardian. Fast forward approximately eight years, when the story concludes, viewers find that Eri has blossomed into a typical middle-schooler. She dons a school uniform accompanied by a guitar case and is depicted cheerfully conversing with companions in the school music club. Her aspirations lie in becoming a talented musician.

Due to the assistance provided by U.A. High and Mandalay, Eri has successfully healed from her previous emotional wounds and is now living a carefree, childlike life. Contrary to expectations, Eri shows no intention of becoming a professional hero or engaging in any heroic endeavors, even though her horn has reappeared.
