The mysterious person running alongside him might play a crucial role in unveiling a hidden truth or power within the younger brother.

My Hero Academia Chapter 408: Previous chapter recap

The title of Chapter 407 of Boku No Hero Academia was ‘An Exceptional Child.’ In this chapter, we see the backstories of Yoichi Shigaraki and the origins of All For One. In a time before Quirks, a sex worker, unaware of her pregnancy, dies giving birth to twins by a riverbank. The Luminescent Baby, one of the twins, develops a lethal power, “Spearlike Bones.”

As Meta Abilities emerge globally, society faces chaos. The Luminescent Baby’s older brother, All For One, inherits the deadly ability and becomes a ruthless force, fueled by possession and power. Meanwhile, the younger, frail brother dreams of being a hero inspired by comic books.

Three years later, All For One, having killed millions for power, reveals his selfish dream for a world under his control. Shocked, the younger brother leaves, prompting a tragic confrontation. The narrative delves into the complexities of power, family dynamics, and the clash between dreams and unchecked ambition in a world grappling with the consequences of evolving abilities.

All relevant updates will be mentioned in this section as they come. Thus, keep an eye on Pinkvilla.
