My Hero Academia Reveals New Power System Beyond Quirks!

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

Summary

  • Support equipment now crucial in MHA
  • Deku gains powerful Hero armor suit
  • Future villains likely to have armor suits

Last year, the popular series known as “My Hero Academia” came to an end following the culmination of the Final War. The conclusion saw a fierce battle between Deku and All For One, reshaping the world in its aftermath. It’s undeniable that there are new powers emerging within the universe of “My Hero Academia”.

Towards the conclusion of the series, Deku may have forfeited his inherent quirk, but he acquired an incredibly intriguing talent through a state-of-the-art Hero suit instead. By the series finale, it’s apparent that a remarkable power is emerging, and it turns out to be technology itself. The world has undergone significant advancements, leading many fans to anticipate further technological developments in upcoming standalone episodes or films, should they materialize.

How Support Equipment Became The New Power System

  • Support Equipment Are Way More Important Than Ever
  • Full Body Armor Can Help In Battle

In the Final War saga of “My Hero Academia,” the narrative shifted when readers were introduced to Armored All Might. During this storyline, All Might, despite no longer having access to One For All, expressed his desire to keep fighting. Consequently, he used an expensive armor, granting him remarkable abilities. The creation of Armored All Might was depicted in the final arc of “My Hero Academia,” where Yagi Toshinori engaged in combat with All For One.

Despite numerous individuals, including Tsukauchi, anticipating that All Might would be overwhelmed in combat, he instead demonstrated exceptional performance. He not only managed to significantly weaken All For One but also his combination of quirks proved to be impeccable. This impressive showing wasn’t merely significant due to its role in thwarting All For One, but it also served as a model for many in the realm of technology, offering insights into the real might of science and paving the way for its integration within the Hero world.

8 years following the end of the war and after Deku had already lost his powers, fans witnessed Deku receiving an armor suit from All Might. This suit was later disclosed to have been created by Melissa Shield, in collaboration with Hatsume, and predominantly funded by Bakugo, together with their Class 1-A classmates, and possibly All Might as well. Known as a Hero suit, it was significantly more powerful than the one All Might used. Essentially, this signified that technology had advanced considerably in MHA since the war’s end, implying Deku regained his overpowered status.

Future Villains Will Have New Armor Suits

In the universe of My Hero Academia, Deku’s armor suit significantly alters the power dynamics. With abilities being the primary focus in this world, it is now clear that armor suits can also be significant assets. To illustrate its impact, Deku, who doesn’t possess a Quirk, ranks as the Number 4 Hero in Japan, surpassing characters like Bakugo. Clearly, these weapons are potent and even the creator, Horikoshi, has confirmed that Deku’s armor replicates the One For All in every aspect, suggesting a dangerous level of power.

In the future of My Hero Academia, it’s quite plausible that individuals with such powers will emerge. Admittedly, these abilities aren’t widespread due to their high cost, but among the affluent global populace, there are those who are morally compromised. It wouldn’t be surprising if they seized this technology for themselves, aiming to exert control over the world.
