We don't know if Izuku 's dad is the man in 9:06 , 1- His name is confirmed to be Hisashi Midoriya 2-His quirk is confirmed to be Unnamed Fire Breath

[@miles12pega]

Ngl this chapter brought tears to my eyes. I’m so glad my boy is finally becoming who we all knew he was

[@jf3028]

I'm not caught up with the manga and just watching this vid brought tears to my eyes.

[@Sjono]

Can we just appreciate that long after All Might was rendered Quirkless that he’s still saving lives I despise people who say he’d be better off dead or that he still needs to die

[@rafaelperalta1676]

All Might was a hero at heart long before he got One for All. Being quirkless or not doesn't really matter.

[@eternalcountelliott3225]

Like how Deku is seen in the words, "do your best" as it's a great parallel to All Might's, "I am here". All Might was there on various occasions, but had provided the falsity of safety. Deku does what he can and doesn't give false hope. Only hope that he might give you a chance.

[@scarecrowbfc6700]

We’re standing proud of our boy truly becoming a man 😭😭😭

[@JustaThinkr]

It would have been even more awesome if they showed all of Deku’s old middle school classmates watching this unfold. They deserve to have a little dirt rubbed in their faces for belittling Izuku like they had.

[@Rjay0922]

Agreed

[@Ch4rlz_ThA_Princ3]

Revenge has never been a theme of the heroes in MHA. Grow up

[@JordanACG]

@@Ch4rlz_ThA_Princ3 What? What he commented was a totally valid statement. Telling someone to grow up for saying that is petty. It would be cool to see Deku's middle school classmates in awe of how he is right now

[@Ch4rlz_ThA_Princ3]

@@JordanACG in awe or admiration is one thing. OP is talking about rubbing it in their faces though.

[@CrimsonGold-pq8xy]

@@Ch4rlz_ThA_Princ3 He didn't say anything about revenge He's talking about how they deserve to have a bit of salt in the wound, He doesn't want Deku to find them & take revenge He wants to see the look on their faces reacting to what's currently going on, The wound is that Deku's a hero ,the salt is that he's about to save the world, and he wants to see the look on their faces That's not revenge, It's Karma

[@sammcfarlane2494]

Maybe Deku’s Father is an American hero?

[@marvinglinogo9839]

Fan theory on MHA *Koichi of vigilante will join the battle *Kid Tenko is with Nana and trying in the other side to find way to retrieve the OFA and give back to Deku *The President is the Father of Deku *Bakugo will launch a final blast to protect Deku *Deku will retrieve his true quirk and awaken the OFA to 100 percent *Unstoppable quirk god AFO vs Izuku Midoriya with OFA plus New order plus his True quirk

[@ArthurKings10]

New order destroyed itself inside of AFO with other quirks

[@Rjay0922]

I say Bakugo lunches his final gauntlet while being escorted by Best Jeanist and Mirio who’s also escorting Nejire, Amajiki and Mirko that’s my thoughts 💭 and Edgeshot will be escorted by USA pilots since All Might is escorted by them

[@vector0420]

im happy, If AFO sees Koichi again because he's the reason why AFO makes a lot of nomu because of him.

[@sethwandji9543]

Bakugo and todoroki finna slide out of no where and post up for deku

[@alexjackyperson101]

​@@ArthurKings10 no, new order was given to someone, idk if that person die or not, probably not

[@Kaempfdog]

Deku getting covered by everyone where this HAS to be one of if not the final You Say Run moment in the show. And AFO acknowledges something about Deku that’s just an overall trait of most Empaths. AFO has been taking advantage of his empathy and care for others ever since he escaped prison and called him a mistake to hold OFA as the result of such an exploitable weakness. And Yoichi told him “He’s not at all worthless. He struggles for others. And that is something that is quite literally unimaginable to you.” And now AFO sees not the weakness but the strength in an Empath carrying the weight of everyone around him and standing just like anyone else. And with everyone supporting him, he’ll only do better. And right now he is quite literally the best of the best. Charging full quirk AFO head first and getting in his face not as the Symbol of Peace. But as his own symbol he’s built. I’d like to call him the Symbol of the Heart. As that is his emblem. And what has gotten him into every selfless decision and his willpower to go forward is what keeps casualties at a minimum wherever he goes. And All-Might acknowledges he knows Deku has surpassed expectations. He is SO proud of his son. And Iida realizing what Uraraka had given him by maintaining the name in this way. With Uraraka just saying it quietly to herself as she’s taken to the hospital. There is SO much love in the air for what Deku has become. I’m just so happy to see this all go down. Deku is on the embers according to him, but considering his vestige in OFA is his own and complete, he should still have stockpile in his own variation as he winds down the prime power of the 9 holders to what I assume is just Deku’s contribution. You know. If he keeps the quirk. Which we will see if he does or not. We’ll be confirming that next chapter I assume

[@justinukah7441]

As much as I love You Say Run, I hope they actually used Jet Set Run. I usually associated that with Deku

[@kernbarrios650]

I would imagine that if deku cant get the best punch first we gonn see the power of 2 duo hit the hardest most reckless *X-CATAPULT* to ever come forth added in with an ice spire from todoroki, gosh that would rock

[@xfiremhyoutube]

I image something from a kingdom hearts tune specially from the Days game. think of the saddest emotional tune you can think of. For me, this feels like a U-might moment in my case, but in a way that fits the scene. They better not screw this up in the anime.

[@joshuacoons9517]

I doubt it. Now I love my hero. It looks like she is going for the hero will ultimately loose in the end. Will he defeat AFO. Yes. But he will not only loose his power, but his body is going to be completely broken and won’t be able to do hardly anything (if he survives). She is making this up to the ultimate hero sacrifice. I REALLY HATE ENDINGS LIKE THIS!!! But it is the only endings we get nowadays. One of the main reasons people checked out of superhero movies. If I am wrong. I will be estatic. But, if I am right it would be a great shame.

[@ThomasHadu-jn8ek]

Definitely a You Say Run moment, but imagine they actually use the first OPENING when this gets animated ❤

[@anime_wonderland2425]

Yeah exactly bruh I don't understand how their emotions for the fandom affect the show.

[@Rjay0922]

Almost everyone from Class 1A are helping Deku to reach towards to AFO but some is unable to help him but will be cheering for him to win 0:07 Aoyama falling behind trying to help Deku 1:56 Hagakure deflecting the laser beam away from Deku 2:06 2:16 Yaoyorozu creates a Railgun to let Kaminari fires 2:49 Sato, Sero, Ojiro and Koda along with Kaibara, Shishida and Shiozaki from Class 1B blocks the tentacles for Deku 3:18 3:50 Shoji and Tsuyu wraps around Deku and helps him charge towards to AFO 3:57 Kirishima, Ashido and Fat Gum blocks the attacks by pushing it for Deku 4:26 Jiro uses her one remaining Earphone Jack left along with Present Mic’s voice and Mineta just watches 5:36 7:11 Iida helps Deku runs to AFO (5:25 Tokoyami along with Hawks wishes Iida good luck while unable to join but to wait for his medical treatment) and he tells the truth about Ochaco giving Deku his hero name 6:27 9:07 All Might finally gets rescued by Star and Stripe’s soldiers and raises his hand for Deku 7:06 Melissa and Rody and his siblings from MHA movies made their appearances to cheer for Deku 7:35 Ochaco finally wakes up and cheers for Deku silently as she’s okay but now she’s about to get her medical treatment 8:24 Everybody is cheering for Deku (Gran Torino, Eri, Tiger and Kota and Shoto who’s in so much injured after he and Endeavor did their parts) 9:24 9:40 Deku’s mom cheers for her own son to win with Deku landing a blow against AFO So far Bakugo is not here but I doubt he’ll be rescued by taking him to the hospital after his fight against AFO

[@cStatE95]

I realized what afo was talking about deku inspiring others to act was a callback to the ending of vigilantes. From what i remember koichi quirk wasnt anything special and that it manage to make afo to struggle and was afraid of something insignificant to him be what takes him down

[@Animegamespublishing]

Everyone is cheering for deku even ochako who is seriously injured. His mom and father figure all might are doing the same. Deku has come this far and he cannot fail now. Afo has a weakness and that is a lack of friendship. Glad to see the rest of class 1A fighting alongside him to achieve this final victory. This is the best you say run moment. Afo has taken advantage of the empathy that deku has right now. Besides calling deku worthless and not capable of holding OFA deku has other means in his power to end afo. I sincerely hope shiggy will get his revenge on Afo soon. Thid chapter brought tears to my eyes

[@Rjay0922]

Everybody from Class 1-A got their chances to fight AFO except Ochaco she’s is the only one not here due with so much injuries she’s in but if Deku vs AFO gets dragged another longer like 2-4 chapters perhaps but let’s see and in a meantime she’ll need medical treatment first on next chapter and after 2-4 chapters pass like if Deku still having trouble against AFO even after landing a blow that should be a chance for Ochaco return to help him like illustrations that Hori made then that’s where all Class 1-A got their chances to fight AFO

[@ebukaanaso9712]

Yeah yeah they're all cheerleaders, who cares, honestly this just spoils it for me, I'm tired of watching another Dragon ball retcon where the MC needs help from others to win when in truth, he has the potential to do it by himself. Ever wondered why Naruto v Pain was cinema? It's because Naruto only got helped from Hinata, he beat the final pain by himself, watching Deku get help from every single person makes me just realize how pathetic he became, we want Dark Deku not this weakling

I got an idea of what Deku’s final smash to AFO will be! If America’s sending all their heroes, & the world sides with Midoriya I have a feeling Deku’s final smash will be more explosive than United States of Smash. I’m calling it “World Wide Smash.”

[@alexandrubalescu636]

It's interesting that in one pannel, when the president of the USA hits the table, you can see him almost knocking out a picture that looks like a family type of picture, maybe he is deku's dad, that's why he was so desperate. Idk, fun to think about. Not to mention that his body and face aren't revealed. which is curious.

[@spicyisa123]

[@lenabach3047]
