Episode 7 Story

Having transferred the Quirk One For All to Shigaraki, Deku delves deep into his inner world and comes face-to-face with the child that once was Tenko Shimura. Learning the tragic origins of Tenko’s destructive Quirk “Decay,” Deku grasps the small hand of the boy who caused so much pain, desperately trying to reach the part of him that still weeps inside.

Even though Shigaraki is a villain who has destroyed so much, Deku’s unwavering resolve pushes him to extend his hand. What will this encounter bring about between the two? And from this emotional confrontation, the final battle takes an unexpected and dramatic turn.

The released preview stills highlight the tears of Deku, Shigaraki (Tenko Shimura), Present Mic, and Eri—each holding a deeper meaning yet to be revealed.
