My Hero Academia stands as one of the leading superhero series today, thanks to creator Kohei Horikoshi’s masterful world-building in his manga.
As a self-professed superhero aficionado, Horikoshi often pays homage to his favorite franchises. Recently, My Hero Academia chapter 419 concluded with a striking nod to Avengers: Endgame.
Following a tumultuous chapter, where fans endured a series of intense events, including All For One’s resurgence and Izuku’s severe injuries, readers were treated to a heartening moment involving Aizawa.

In the final pages of chapter 419, Aizawa, akin to Captain America, brings reinforcements to aid Izuku in his battle against All For One’s ultimate form. Class 1-A students, guided by Aizawa’s portals, rush to assist Izuku, with Aizawa apologizing for his tardiness.
This scene mirrors a pivotal moment from Avengers: Endgame, where, during the climactic battle against Thanos, various heroes join forces through portals to turn the tide of the war.
My Hero Academia appears poised to replicate this heroic convergence in its current narrative arc.
For those not up to date with the manga, My Hero Academia continues its ongoing serialization, available on the Shonen Jump app. Meanwhile, anticipation builds for the upcoming seventh season of the anime, while viewers can catch up on seasons one through six on Crunchyroll.
