Final War

The world remembers the Final War as the darkest moment in hero history—a conflict that shattered nations, ended thousands of lives, and pushed every hero, student, and civilian to the brink. It began when All For One launched his last great campaign, using decades of hoarded power and influence to destabilize governments and break hero society at its core. With the League of Villains scattered across multiple strongholds, the world entered open chaos.

Class 1-A and the top heroes were thrust into the heart of the conflict. Cities burned as villains seized control of key regions. Prisons were emptied, nomu swarms flooded the streets, and quirk-erasing weapons reappeared in enemy hands. Heroes were forced to divide across the continent, fighting on multiple fronts as citizens fled for safety.

The first major victory came when heroes succeeded in cornering and defeating the remaining fragments of All For One’s influence, but it came at a high cost—many retired heroes fell, and countless students experienced real battle for the first time. Yet even with All For One’s destruction, the true threat remained: Tomura Shigaraki, whose evolution had transformed him into something beyond human.

Shigaraki’s final form possessed near-limitless destructive force. His decay stretched miles, his regeneration became monstrous, and his hatred burned hotter than ever. He was a living apocalypse, carrying the weight of All For One’s twisted legacy and his own unbearable past.

The final battle against Shigaraki took place on a battlefield engineered to save as many lives as possible—a floating frontline created by the combined forces of international hero agencies. Class 1-A fought not as students but as equals to the pros. Every member contributed: some shielding civilians, others disabling Shigaraki’s support lines, and a few facing him directly in the air, where the sky itself tore apart from the force of their clashes.

Shigaraki fought without restraint, destroying everything he touched, screaming his rejection of the world that failed him. Heroes battered him from every angle, pushing past their physical limits, refusing to let him break the world again. In the end, it was the unity forged through years of shared struggle—the bonds, the training, the sacrifices—that allowed the heroes to finally overwhelm him.

With his fall, the League of Villains collapsed. Their ideology shattered, their members scattered, and their era came to an end. But the scars of that war remained etched into the earth, the cities, and the hearts of those who survived.

The Final War became the turning point that reshaped hero society. It marked the end of one generation’s struggle and the beginning of a new era—one still haunted by the memory of Shigaraki’s scream and the ruins left in his wake.

When the Final War erupted, the young heroes of U.A. Class 1-A stepped forward not as students, but as the last line between civilization and annihilation. Every member played a crucial role in the collapse of the League of Villains and the defeat of both All For One and Shigaraki.

At the front of the storm stood @Izuku Midoriya, whose evolving power and conviction made him the spearhead of the entire operation. He fought Shigaraki directly, engaging him in the air where their quirk-shattering blows cracked the sky itself. Fighting beside him was his lifelong rival, @Katsuki Bakugo, whose relentless explosions tore apart Shigaraki’s defenses and kept him from overwhelming the frontline.

On the ground, @Shoto Todoroki unleashed waves of flame and ice to contain the battlefield, preventing decay from spreading and shielding evacuation routes. His mastery over both elements became one of the only reasons entire districts survived.

@Ochaco Uraraka rescued countless civilians trapped in collapsing zones, lifting debris, vehicles, and even entire buildings to clear paths for survivors. Her presence stabilized the chaotic frontline where even pros struggled to maintain order.

@Tenya Iida became the movement backbone of the hero forces, racing through battlefields to deliver intel, supplies, and reinforcements. Without his speed, several critical units would have been wiped out before backup arrived.

@Tsuyu Asui and a covert team infiltrated villain tunnels beneath the battlegrounds, capturing escape routes and cutting off Shigaraki’s underground support lines. Her reconnaissance saved hundreds from ambush.

On the tactical side, @Momo Yaoyorozu manufactured emergency weapons, medical equipment, and anti-decay countermeasures in real time. Her mobile command station became the literal brain of the operation.

@Eijiro Kirishima fought in the thickest melee zones, shielding injured heroes with his unbreakable defense and holding lines that should have collapsed. His endurance became legendary—soldiers say they heard him shouting “Stand your ground!” through dust and fire.

@Mina Ashido used her acid to neutralize structural decay and cut through corrupted terrain, carving safe paths for evacuations and counterattacks.

@Denki Kaminari overloaded entire battalions of nomu, frying their control systems and giving heroes precious moments to regroup. His long-range lightning strikes disrupted Shigaraki’s movements.

Above the battlefield, @Fumikage Tokoyami and Dark Shadow fought against airborne nomu swarms, creating a shield of darkness that prevented them from overwhelming the sky teams.

And through every moment of terror, panic, and destruction, the class fought as one—interlocking abilities, covering each other’s weaknesses, and turning their years of training into battlefield instinct.

Their unity, forged through hardship and stubborn hope, became the keystone of the war effort.
Without Class 1-A, the Final War would have ended not in victory, but in extinction.
