Chapter 400 recap

Chapter 400 of My Hero Academia kicked off with a brief focus on Yuga Aoyama and Toru Hagakure. Hagakure revealed that her Quirk had glitched and accidentally made her visible due to an adrenaline rush. Aoyama, determined to tackle the challenge at hand, acknowledged his stomach pain caused by his Quirk but insisted on soldiering forward as today marked his final day as a U.A. student.

The chapter then focused on the epic battle between All Might and All For One. All Might cleverly utilized Quirks inspired by Kyoka Jiro, Minoru Mineta, and Momo Yaoyorozu to effectively subdue his opponent, keeping him restrained for a substantial amount of time. While the fight unfolded, a young boy in a foreign land quietly observed, fervently supporting All Might despite the fact that the outcome of the battle held no significance in their own life.

Subsequently, the chapter depicted the explosive demise of the laser-firing bike, revealing a very young All For One emerging from the wreckage, emitting a luminous glow akin to the baby depicted in the first chapter. Strangely, he appeared to possess a mysterious appendage growing from his back. However, his movement abruptly halted when Stain, utilizing his unique ability to lick blood, intervened by consuming his blood from nearby debris. The chapter concluded with Stain ardently encouraging an exhilarated All Might to deliver the final blow to All For One.

What to expect (speculative)

Content must be written in English:

My Hero Academia chapter 401 is expected to explore two possible storylines following the downfall of All For One. It is likely that both narratives will begin with a flashback from the self-proclaimed Demon Lord, delving into his origins as a young man during the emergence of Quirks, as well as his past battles with All Might.

In My Hero Academia chapter 401, there are two main paths that the story could take. The first scenario would involve All Might successfully defeating All For One, securing a victory, albeit at the cost of his own life due to his injuries. On the other hand, the second possibility would see All For One finding a way to overpower Stain's Quirk, leading to the potential demise of All Might as the chapter concludes.
