Though imprisoned for much of the My Hero Academia storyline, the character of All For One has had an enduring, influential presence throughout.
As the foremost antagonist, he has shaped the young Shigaraki into carrying on his evil purposes.
Despite physical defeat and disfigurement in an earlier confrontation with All Might, All For One continues to evoke apprehension and dismay.
The manga recently provided a backstory on All For One’s origins. Identified as potentially the first person gifted with special abilities, or “Quirks,” he disturbingly concluded that all people and things existed for his control and manipulation.
However, All For One’s decision to bestow a Quirk upon his brother unexpectedly enabled his sibling to develop the opposing power of One For All.
While this specific history may not appear in My Hero Academia’s upcoming seventh anime season, fans will likely find animated portrayals of these foundational events very compelling.
