The Resurgence of New Order
In My Hero Academia chapter 413, the resurgence of the New Order Quirk took center stage as the form of Star and Stripe made a significant appearance within Tomura Shigaraki's vestige world. This pivotal moment, where Star and Stripe conveyed crucial information to All Might, served as a compelling indication of the Quirk's continued existence, albeit in a modified state.
The intense clash between Shigaraki and Star and Stripe further unveiled the resilience of the New Order Quirk. Despite Shigaraki's attempt to abscond with the Quirk, the vestige of New Order retaliated by dismantling several of Shigaraki's abilities, showcasing a defense mechanism embedded within the Quirk.
Although the confirmation of New Order's survival hints at its diminished influence in the ongoing narrative, the lingering possibility of Shigaraki neutralizing the Quirk's vestige adds an element of uncertainty to its future role in the series.
Star and Stripe's Impact
Star and Stripe's portrayal in the My Hero Academia series left a lasting impression on fans, albeit with mixed sentiments. Regarded as an underutilized character by many, the introduction of heroes from different nations raised expectations for Star's role in the overarching narrative.
Despite her formidable strength and valiant confrontation with Shigaraki, Star and Stripe's fate sparked disappointment among fans. Her untimely demise and perceived utilization as a mere plot device to weaken Shigaraki left a sense of unfulfilled potential and missed opportunities, evoking a sense of dissatisfaction within the fandom.
