Chapter 414 recap
My Hero Academia chapter 414 began with the One For All Vestiges admiring Deku’s respect and admiration for each Quirk Factor within the ability. Deku, meanwhile, is focused on creating a plan, deciding to transfer Gearshift via his blood landing into one of Shigaraki’s wounds. Shigaraki, meanwhile, quickly deduced that Deku was up to something given his expression and the funny feeling he had about the last attack Deku launched at him.
This prompted Shigaraki to proclaim once more that he’ll just destroy everything, with the two then charging at one another. Deku then used En’s Smokescreen, prompting Shigaraki to dive to the ground and begin spreading Decay. However, it was revealed Deku used Black Whip to rip a chunk up out of the ground, isolating Decay’s spread. Shigaraki’s search then reacted to something behind him, which was Gran Torino’s scarf with some blood on it.
Realizing Deku’s plan, he turned around and said it was too late, but Deku was already starting his attack from point-blank range. Deku also explained that En’s Smokescreen was integral to this plan as Shigaraki’s finger armor started appearing. Deku was able to land the punch, transferring Gearshift and allowing Kudo to start their assault, which clearly had an effect. The episode ended with the two’s memories beginning to merge as Deku continued his assault.
What to expect (speculative)
With Deku and co more motivated than ever to move forward with their plan, My Hero Academia chapter 415 should begin with the young Pro Hero pressing the advantage as Shigaraki recovers. Unsurprisingly, Shigaraki will respond by trying to create distance, likely proving successful in this endeavor given how synergistic this goal is with his Decay Quirk’s functionality.
My Hero Academia chapter 415 should then focus on Shigaraki, who’ll likely have an internal dialogue while trying to figure out what the point of that last attack was. It’s unlikely he’ll fully comprehend Deku and co’s plan here, instead deciding to go all out in an attempt to end their fight before any other major damage is sustained.
