My Hero Academia: Shigaraki destroys his "hands"

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Few series are bold enough to have an entire arc where the villains are cast in the role of protagonist, but My Hero Academia managed to pull it off in an incredibly exciting way. The arc was definitely a risk, as Japanese fans had indicated that they didn't much care for a focus on the villains, but the resulting arc is up there with the series' best.

Shigaraki's development is particularly important, as we get flashbacks to his childhood and explanation as to his start of darkness. Shigaraki's situation is a tragic one, as his Quirk manifests spontaneously, causing him to kill first his dog, then his sister, and mother, all by accident, but finally striking out on purpose with the intent of killing his father. Given his treatment by his father, it's almost understandable that a child might make such a move.

The Meta Liberation Army is Underutilized Close Of course, the introduction of an entirely new faction of villains is a major element of this arc, and it helps to explain how the League of Villains so rapidly becomes a nationwide threat. As an ideologically driven group, the Meta Liberation Army is very interesting; of course there would be people arguing for the free use of Quirks, and in some ways it mirrors the controversies over mutants in Marvel's X-Men.

My Villain Academia is an Exciting Challenge for the Series' Villains Despite the unrealized potential that the arc had, what fans did get is an incredibly exciting series of battles that pushed the villains to their limits, causing them to improve in ways that usually only heroes get to do. It added a lot of depth to the main villains, like Shigaraki and Toga, by revealing their pasts and motivations, which was much needed for those characters to become more than flat, unchanging enemies.
