My Hero Academia chapter 419 reveals devastating news about the series’ hero, Deku. In recent chapters, Deku has been valiantly battling Shigaraki, putting everything on the line as the entire world watches his brave actions.
Meanwhile, chapter 418 shifted its focus to the happenings within the Dreamscape, where AFO made a surprising comeback in the manga.
This unexpected turn of events disproved fans’ assumptions that he had been permanently removed from the narrative. His return demonstrates the unyielding nature of his malevolence, as the new spoilers shed light on his continued evil deeds within the story.
Amidst the online buzz, there’s growing speculation among fans about a critical development: the possibility of Deku losing his arms in My Hero Academia. To thoroughly understand this speculation, a detailed look at the spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 419 is necessary.
Did Midoriya Lose Both His Arms in My Hero Academia Manga?
Yes, during the intense battle with Shigaraki, Deku did indeed lose both his arms. This tragic outcome unfolded within the dreamscape, following the build-up of events leading to All For One’s dramatic entrance, which had been teased in the preceding chapter.
Within the confines of the dreamscape, Deku was exposed to the memories of Shigaraki, particularly the initial activation of his Decay quirk. It became evident that Shigaraki’s deep-seated hatred and his philosophies could be traced back to that pivotal moment.

In a poignant scene within the dreamscape, Deku, undeterred by the danger of the quirk, reached out with his hands, hoping to divert Shigaraki from his destructive path.
Deku’s efforts seemed to be making an impact, touching something within Shigaraki’s heart. However, it was at this critical juncture that All For One intervened. He took this opportunity to disclose the true origins of the Decay quirk, revealing it to be an ability not innately possessed by Shigaraki.
Return of the Greatest Villian
This moment stands as a pivotal revelation in My Hero Academia, challenging the long-held belief among fans that Shigaraki’s quirk was innate. The truth revealed by All For One (AFO) shed light on a critical turn of events:
AFO bestowed the Decay quirk on Shigaraki as a young child, under the guise of assisting him across the street. This act set the stage for the quirk’s sudden activation shortly thereafter.
AFO’s manipulation extended beyond the mere transmission of a quirk; he engaged Shigaraki in a conversation where he criticized Shigaraki’s decision-making skills, effectively casting an illusion of autonomy over him. This interaction highlighted AFO’s deep-seated control over Shigaraki’s life, steering him at every turn.
The psychological of Shigaraki by AFO was complete, culminating in their emergence from the dreamscape into reality.
At this point, the entity known as TomurAFO (the fusion of Tomura Shigaraki’s body with AFO’s consciousness) made its appearance. Proclaiming the end of Shigaraki, TomurAFO advanced on a gravely injured Deku on the battlefield.
In the critical scenes revealed by chapter 419 spoilers of My Hero Academia, Deku was depicted as having lost both his arms. He was severely bleeding and immobilized by the injuries sustained during the confrontation. Thus, the manga confirms the loss of Deku’s arms following the dramatic events within the dreamscape.
