My Hero Academia finale chapter is set to be released on August 5, 2024, but the spoilers for the chapter have already been unveiled. After the chapter put an end to the series, the post-chapter started with an enthusiastic All Might who wanted to give Deku a new suit that utilized the data of the fight between Armoured All Might and awakened All for One.

This suit had unexplored yet overpowered potential that utilized a big budget and research from the top researchers of the U.A. High School. Unfortunately, after Deku accepted the suit, the chapter ended, which brought the heat to the internet where people wanted to see a sequel where the main protagonist would utilize his new suit and explore its capabilities.

According to the spoilers of My Hero Academia chapter 430, an 8-year time skip took place, after which most of the heroes from Deku's class had found a place where they belonged. On the other hand, Izuku had found his place in U.A. High School as a teacher.

After the chapter concluded, a post-chapter started that featured All Might enthusiastic about meeting Deku, whom he had called before on urgent notice. The former Symbol of Peace pulled out a suit that was constructed by one of All Might's friends (David or Melissa) and Hatsume from Class H-1.

Moreover, it was funded by someone from Deku's class. had the essence of Bakugo's quirk in it, and the data of the fight from the time when All Might fought All for One in his Armoured suit during the final war. As Deku also had some embers of One for All, just like All Might, the former Symbol of Peace didn't want his student to retire at a young age.

Although Deku was hesitant about accepting such a luxurious gift, All Might encouraged him to embrace it as he had earned it through hard work. The chapter ended with no announcement of a possible sequel.

Reactions from the fandom

Just like the X user, other fans were also enthusiastic about the new suit of Deku, which was left unexplored after the climax of My Hero Academia. Some fans wanted Horikoshi's series to have a movie like The Last Naruto where, instead of focusing on romance, the narrative would focus on Deku's new suit. This suit used All Might's Armoured one as a reference, it could be stronger than the former.

"Dude fr it left me wanting to see what that suit is capable of" a fan said

"MHA definetly needs the Naruto: The Last Treatment" a fan claimed

"This suit is definitely way stronger than the one all might has so atleast he will be able to fight even top tier villains plus with dekus battle iq he could use the suit in really versatile ways" another fan said

On the other hand, some fans explored other possibilities for the future, one of which was where the side character could finally get a spotlight. Another interesting possibility a fan spoke of was Deku becoming a Batman-like hero who could advance his newly-gifted suit by himself. Another fan lamented over the theory about Shigaraki having a conscious inside Deku to look over the protagonist.

"All I want is for the now adult heroes to have good screen time" a fan said

"I need a sequel series of Deku becoming a Batman type vigilante bruh. Advanced martial arts training + battle iq and possibly even him learning how to add his own advancements. Should be a more grounded street level series about him teaching and doing hero work at night" another fan said

"I was kinda hoping that theory that Shigiraki left his vestige inside Deku to keep one for all and to see what kind of world he builds post fight but meh" another one said

Final thoughts

Realistically speaking, Kohei Horikoshi can take a break, or possibly retire, as a manga artist and become a winter for some future projects like Masashi Kishimoto.

The Naruto writer stopped as an active manga artist after his magnum opus concluded and acted as a supervisor for canon movies like The Last and Boruto movie. He is also the supervisor of his series' sequel, so Horikoshi could also be a supervisor of some future projects regarding the after events of his series.
