As Kohei Horikoshi's epic masterpiece nears its conclusion, the intense showdown between Tomura Shigaraki and Izuku Midoriya, also known as Deku, reaches a pivotal moment in My Hero Academia chapter 411. With Shigaraki stealing Deku's Danger Sense Quirk in the previous chapter, he now faces a significant disadvantage.
After Katsuki Bakugo's victory over All For One in the previous chapter, My Hero Academia chapter 411 centers on the ultimate battle of the series - Izuku Midoriya facing off against Tomura Shigaraki once and for all.
The chapter began by demonstrating how All For One's successor managed to steal Deku's Danger Sense Quirk. It was revealed that Hikage Shinomori, the fourth wielder of One For All and the original user of the Danger Sense Quirk, sacrificed himself to prevent Shigaraki from obtaining the other Quirks.

Explaining the reason behind Hikage Shinomori's vestige sacrificing itself in My Hero Academia chapter 411
In chapter 410 of the manga, Tomura Shigaraki catches up to Izuku Midoriya's speed and briefly touches his face, stealing Midoriya's Danger Sense Quirk. This Quirk proves to be extremely helpful in battles, allowing Midoriya to keep attacking Shigaraki without falling behind.
Chapter 411 of My Hero Academia begins with the selfless sacrifice of Hikage Shinomori's vestige, who senses impending danger and pushes the other vestiges out of the way, preventing Shigaraki from acquiring them as well.
However, Shinomori's vestige ended up disappearing when the villain successfully stole the Danger Sense Quirk. Losing the Quirk proved to be a significant disadvantage for Deku, who had relied on it to avoid danger.
Although the reason for the vestige's sacrifice is unknown, fans have already begun discussing potential reasons for its heroic actions in My Hero Academia chapter 411. One possible explanation could be connected to Shinomori's origins, which is one of the character's most intriguing aspects.
The fourth user of the One For All Quirk, Hikage Shinomori, made a different choice from the others. Realizing his inability to defeat All For One, he dedicated his life to solitary training. Shinomori is unique among the users of One For All for avoiding confrontation with All For One and instead focusing on strengthening the Quirk for the rest of his days.
Shinomori proved to be just as brave and deserving of the legendary Quirk as the other users, and his decision not to recklessly fight All For One prevented the villain from obtaining his Quirks. In My Hero Academia chapter 411, Shinomori's vestige displayed his heroic and compassionate nature by sacrificing itself to protect Deku's Quirks from Shigaraki. Even in death, the vestige continued to guard the One For All Quirk, reflecting Shinomori's lifelong dedication to its protection from All For One.
Final thoughts
In My Hero Academia chapter 411, the absence of the Danger Sense Quirk has put Deku at a significant disadvantage. Without the ability to foresee attacks, he is now more vulnerable, while Shigaraki's senses have been greatly heightened, giving him a considerable advantage in the fight. It is possible that Shigaraki will continue to strip Deku of his Quirks until he only has One For All left, but whether this theory will come to fruition remains to be seen in the upcoming chapters.
Editor's P/S
As an enthusiastic fan of My Hero Academia, I am deeply moved by the ultimate sacrifice made by Hikage Shinomori's vestige in chapter 411. Shinomori's selfless act to protect Deku's Quirks from falling into the hands of the villainous Tomura Shigaraki showcases the depth of his heroism and unwavering dedication to the cause of justice. His willingness to give up his own existence for the greater good is a testament to the indomitable spirit that defines the heroes in this captivating series.
The loss of the Danger Sense Quirk has undoubtedly dealt a significant blow to Deku's abilities, leaving him more vulnerable in the face of Shigaraki's relentless onslaught. However, I believe that this setback will only serve to fuel Deku's determination and push him to new heights of strength and resilience. The upcoming chapters promise to be even more intense and emotionally charged as Deku confronts the challenges that lie ahead, and I eagerly await to witness how he overcomes these obstacles and emerges victorious in the final battle against Shigaraki.
