My Hero Academia Chapter 430 brings the entire story to a close. We see Deku and his fellow Class 1-A students for the last time in a touching epilogue from creator Kohei Horikoshi. The My Hero Academia ending has fans picking out particular details from throughout the narrative, and one that\u2019s gotten traction is a slightly odd stat involving the baddies. Only one of them actually kills a main character, and it\u2019s not Shigaraki. Overhaul has that particular blood on their hands, from taking out Nighteye, All Might\u2019s former sidekick. Nighteye is killed in Chapter 161, during the Shie Hassaikai Arc (or Season 4, Episode 14 of the superhero anime). That\u2019s the most prolific death on the side of the heroes \u2013 on-screen at least, as Midnight died off-screen. Shigaraki\u2019s biggest kills are Gigantomachia and Stain, a pair of antagonists. \u201cMy Hero Academia is not really that big on killing off characters,\u201d one Reddit comment states. \u201cGrand Torino had an arm-sized hole punched through his torso. He somehow lived despite not serving the story in any way another character couldn\u2019t have,\u201d says another, pointing out the plot armor Kohei gives characters. If you look through the best My Hero Academia fights, you\u2019ll find some heinous injuries, but almost no executions. Sure, Star and Stripe meets her end, but she was a one-off bit part. \u201cDidn\u2019t even last 10 chapters, had a (maybe) major impact but not even a major character in the slightest, everyone calls her a plot device,\u201d a Redditor says of Star and Stripe, really placing her existence in context. Ultimately, Kohei\u2019s work exists in league with the MCU. Villains die left and right, but meaningful deaths on the good side are few and far between.
