My Hero Academia chapter 423 brought the curtain down on the epic battle between All For One (AFO) and One For All (OFA). Amidst the intense confrontation, a crucial detail emerged regarding Deku’s desire to complete the OFA quirk, leading to intriguing speculation among fans.
Throughout the series, the enigmatic nature of OFA has remained a focal point, especially after the revelation of its ability to store multiple quirks. It was revealed that AFO’s fixation on his brother, Yoichi, prompted him to forcibly bestow a stockpiling quirk upon him.
This quirk, combined with Yoichi’s dormant transferring ability, gave rise to OFA. Despite housing seven vestiges, the core of OFA originated from Yoichi himself, imbued with his resolve for justice.
Deku May Reclaim One For All Again
In the climactic moments of the battle between AFO and OFA, Deku transferred the quirk back to its original owner, resulting in AFO’s demise as his body disintegrated. During this encounter, AFO encountered a vestige of Yoichi, sparking cryptic dialogues. While these exchanges were intended as a final moment of salvation for AFO, Yoichi also hinted at Deku’s desire to complete the OFA quirk.
This revelation suggests that Deku may ultimately become the final user of OFA, acquiring its ultimate form. Such a development would align with the overarching narrative, as Deku has been positioned as the symbol of peace and the greatest hero since the series’ inception.
Soooo, you’re telling me:
– No Yoichi goodbye
– No Banjo goodbye
– No last affirmation from AM’s vestigeYeeeeeah, no, OFA is CLEARLY not done. And since it isn’t done, it’d feel contrived for Deku to remain quirkless as a result. This is setting up Deku “completing” the quirk. pic.twitter.com/gOLnn4B8S8

Speculation abounds regarding how Deku will attain this final version of OFA. Some fan theories suggest that Deku may awaken his dormant quirk, hinted at throughout the series. Alternatively, OFA itself may evolve to its ultimate form, designating Deku as its ultimate wielder.
With the purpose of OFA fulfilled, passing it down through generations seems unlikely and may exacerbate the quirk singularity theory. As the series approaches its conclusion, Deku’s acquisition of the completed OFA could signify the culmination of his hero journey.
My Hero Academia chapter 423 effectively concluded the series’ main storyline, paving the way for subsequent chapters to serve as epilogues, offering closure to readers. The possibility of Deku obtaining the completed OFA adds an intriguing layer to the narrative, potentially marking the conclusion of his heroic adventures.
