monition : Spoilers for My Hero Academia Chapter # 408My Hero Academiahas made it clean-cut that One for All ’s former substance abuser had rather short lives with unpleasant end , but chapter # 408 goes the extra mi by showing on the button how some of them pass away . The savagery they suffered at the hand of All for One is disturbing in many cases , and it ’s a wonder that the power of One for All has managed to last for as long as it has .
Chapter # 408 heavily features All for One recounting event from his past , include his encounters with the inheritors of One for All over the long time . While the images are leave behind as effectively background panel , there ’s still a hard amount of item in these scene , revealinghow each of the late One for All users pass . Visible on the right is the Second User , as seen in a former flashback ; on the left , readers can fleck the Third and Fifth users , with the latter narrowly avoiding having One for All stolen .
Most disturbing is the panel featuring the Sixth User , who has been completely cut in half at the waist , and desperately reaches out for Nana Shimura with a grin on his face .
All for One Shows No Mercy
While Midoriya was able to receive One for All from All Might over fourth dimension and got tardily train in how it figure out , it ’s clear from these flashback thatmost users passed on One for All in a dire situation , to whomever happened to be in forcible proximityat the time of their decease . Almost none of the previous user were chosen to be the heir like Midoriya was ; they simply had the responsibleness of One for All thrust upon them . All for One ’s desire for the Quirk overrides all his other goal , and so when he receive the current holder , he shows them absolutely no mercifulness .
All for One also makes it clear in this chapter that he did n’t arrest with killing the user themselves ; he name going out and extinguish every char and child who had ever affiliate with the Second User , now known to be named Kudo , toensure that his line was good finish . It ’s certainly a shameful level of cruelty on display , but perfectly in character for the highly ego - centered All for One . He , of class , was as exhaustive in destroyingNana Shimura ’s family , as demonstrate by everything he did to create Tomura Shigaraki out of Tenko Shimura .
While for Midoriya , One for All was a blessing that countenance him achieve his dreams , it seems like the Quirk has really been more of a whammy for those who inherit it , ensuring they ’ll never be able to exist a normal lifespan again , and that they ’ll eventually fall in horrific way of life . It was only through great bravery that the ability was able-bodied to be lapse on for as long as it has , and its user had to uprise to the social occasion once they inherit it , or risk losing everything that those who came before them had fought for . The cruelty of All for One understandably cognise no saltation inMy Hero Academia , and it will be interesting to see if these flaming manga deaths make it into the anime uncensored .
