All Might is the best hero in the history of My Hero Academia, a man worthy of being number one in both popularity and ability. This time, we will focus on All Might, a central character in "My Hero Academia." We will thoroughly analyze everything about All Might!

Who is All Might!?

What is his charm point?

It's got to be that smile. He's a giant, 220cm tall and weighing 255kg, with blonde hair and bangs styled in the shape of the V for victory. His very existence is a deterrent to crime, making him a true "symbol of peace." He's also the one Deku and Bakugo look up to, and the one who gave them the dream of becoming a hero. In the story, All Might is the only one who has a more dramatic touch, which makes him stand out even more (lol). His costume is also reminiscent of an American comic book hero. Whenever he appears, he is cheerful and cool, saying, "It's okay now. Why? I'm here!" Contrary to his appearance, he is also quite frank, using American jokes to lighten the mood, and has a bit of a girly element, so his character is explosive, which is also his charm. (lol)

Actually...?

His muscular appearance during hero activities is a limited appearance called "muscle form". And this is his "true form", that is, his original appearance. He is quite sickly and spits blood if he tries a little too hard (lol) This is not original, but goes back 5 years before he met Izuku. In a battle with All Might's nemesis, All For One, he sustained some serious injuries and underwent multiple surgeries, which resulted in his current frail constitution. His maximum time as a hero was three hours, but now he is even weaker than that due to overdoing it on villains and transferring his powers to Izuku. This is outrageous, and it must be kept a secret from the world. After all, he is the "symbol of peace." It makes you worry when you see it (lol)

Unbelievable! ?

All Might, with this costume, this face, and the ability to use American jokes. His real name is Yagi Toshinori. It's not confirmed, but he seems very Japanese (lol) It's surprising, isn't it? He looks like an American comic, so I thought he was American. I feel a sense of familiarity with him (lol)

What is All Might's Quirk?!

What is the world thinking?

All Might's quirk is a secret and a mystery. His quirk is "One for All". It's a simple muscle-enhancing type, but it's powerful. If you strengthen yourself to the maximum like All Might, you can exert the power to change the weather with just one fist swing. Furthermore, with this quirk, he is able to overpower intangible liquid-based villains, who are weak against this quirk, as well as villains with shock-absorbing quirks. As expected. Even though his physical condition is not the best, his unwavering strength, anchored in his own sense of justice, remains intact.

What is the true meaning of this power?!

One For All is a very simple and ordinary quirk, but it has one important secret. It is said to be more important than All Might's frail True Form. It can be transferred to anyone you want to give it to, and its power can grow. It has been passed down through history with a will of justice. The way to transfer the quirk is to have the person you want to transfer it to take your genes. Since you have to want to transfer it, it can't be taken by force. However, it is a perfect target for blackmail and other threats, so it is top secret.

In the name of justice...!

So why does it have to be inherited? The first One For All was All For One's younger brother. What an incredible connection! The younger brother was originally thought to be quirkless, but he had a quirk that allowed him to transfer powers. All For One, not knowing this, gave his younger brother a quirk that allowed him to store powers, and the combination of these two quirks created One For All. He was originally heartbroken by the actions of All For One, who reigned as the ruler of the underworld. One For All was the power that the younger brother had been secretly cultivating to suppress his real brother All For One! It all started with a feud between brothers. It must be a relief to think that he was finally able to clear his mind in All Might's generation!

All Might's end...!?

All Might's final battle!

At the secret training camp for U.A. High School, Bakugo Katsuki from Class A was kidnapped by the Villain Alliance led by Shigaraki Tomura. The reason is that Bakugo's rough background makes him a good villain. Starting with this incident, the heroes and police were able to corner the League of Villains one after another, but in the end, their boss, All For One, appeared. And just then All Might appeared. This was the battle they had both been waiting for. Although neither of them were in top form, this is where a battle of wills begins!

As the greatest hero...

Last time, All Might and All For One fought in secret, but this time it was even broadcast on TV. They fought as hard as they could, and it was a nearly equal battle. Even though their powers have weakened, they are still powerful. They have enough power to destroy a city. Furthermore, All For One can instantly render those currently at the top of the pro hero rankings unable to fight, which shows just how terrifying he was in his prime. All Might also repeatedly used smashes to overpower All For One, showing his true strength. In the end, All Might's special move, United States of Smash, delivered a stunning victory.

All Might's future...

Due to the battle with All For One, All Might used up all the little light of One For All he had. This will be the end of All Might's hero activities. Will he be the center of instruction for Izuku from now on, or will he be active as a hero again? I'm really curious to see where All Might goes from here!

What did you think? A thorough analysis of All Might from the manga My Hero Academia! We have delivered it to you.

Even if All Might retires, All For One is still planning something. Let's keep an eye on the two of them in the future. With the biggest battle in history coming to an end, Deku and the others are in a rush to grow even more. As the best heroes, they have a lot more to work on. I think they themselves have realized the huge difference between them and professional heroes. I hope they continue to work hard with the Plus Ultra spirit!
