My Hero Academia chapter 402 sets up exciting finale to All Might vs All For One, full focus on Deku vs Shigaraki
My Hero Academia chapter 402: Plan B
My Hero Academia chapter 402 opens with the police confirming the successful completion of Shoto Todoroki and Ochaco Uraraka's missions. As a result, the Twice clones vanish from the descending U.A., allowing the school to regain its ability to float, as observed by Mei Hatsuume.
However, the police confirm that All For One is now within close proximity of Shigaraki, able to utilize his Gloop Warp Quirk. Tsukauchi expresses concern over the apparent standstill between Shigaraki and Deku. The focus then shifts to All For One, who takes pleasure in accomplishing his objective of reaching Shigaraki and transforming him into a more formidable version of himself, which is why he initially employed Rewind.
In chapter 402 of My Hero Academia, All Might shouts out to All For One, taunting him in hopes of regaining his attention. However, All For One disregards this and stresses the importance of preventing Midoriya from interfering, as the process of transition must proceed smoothly. Employing the Gloop Warp Quirk, All For One commands Shigaraki to approach, causing a viscous, tar-like substance to spill from his mouth.

Shigaraki, however, abruptly ceases the warping process, asserting that All For One is hindering his progress. In response, All For One elects to implement Plan B, as his authority over Shigaraki has diminished, which entails forcefully dragging All Might by the leg towards the ongoing confrontation between their respective apprentices.
In My Hero Academia chapter 402, All For One antagonizes All Might, mocking his current state and blaming him for encouraging the dreams of others. Meanwhile, Shigaraki informs Deku that All Might will soon require help, while he plans to seek revenge on those who have harmed him by returning to U.A. Academy.
Reflecting on past interactions with his mentor, Deku recalls All Might's advice to stop being emotional all the time. The narrator reveals that Deku had previously suppressed his tears to become an impeccable student. However, it is surprising to discover that the vestige of All Might within Deku, known as One For All, has inexplicably vanished.

In My Hero Academia chapter 402, Deku is seen crying while desperately calling out for All Might. All Might reflects on his first encounter with Deku and finally finds the courage to say the words he couldn't say before - that Deku has the potential to become a true Hero because of his relentless efforts and unwavering dedication to his dream. All Might also reaffirms his own determination to never give up on his dream of being the Symbol of Peace, as he grabs All For One by the neck with his last armor gauntlet.
All For One, in response, recollects the final moments of Nana Shimura, who sacrificed herself to save All Might. He questions why he is reminiscing about her death now, dismissing her as a foolish woman who prioritized ideals without the power to support them. However, he is reminded of Nana's belief that All Might would ultimately defeat him.
My Hero Academia chapter 402: In summation
All Might faces a pivotal moment in My Hero Academia chapter 402, as All For One's intentions are questioned. Nana's lingering words resonate, emphasizing her belief that All Might's insanity will be his ultimate weapon for victory. In the present, All Might reflects on the consequences if All For One perishes once again, revealing a striking tidbit - a potential return to his childhood self. Unfazed by this revelation, a determined smile graces All Might's face as he unleashes his final explosive move, bringing the chapter to a thrilling conclusion.
My Hero Academia chapter 402 is an incredible addition to the series, delivering a breathtaking resolution to the epic clash between All Might and All For One. Fans unanimously agree that this showdown stands as one of the best in the final arc, and the latest installment further cements the remarkable storytelling of their ultimate duel.
This creates an ideal setup for the Deku versus Shigaraki confrontation, as Deku no longer has to worry about saving his mentor (assuming All Might perished in the explosion). Regrettably, fans will have to wait a little longer to verify whether All Might is truly deceased or if the story will now center on Deku's battle against Shigaraki.
