The world of My Hero Academia is anything but black and white. The manga\u2019s characters are humanely flawed, with both good and evil within them. While we see villains with traumatic pasts, we also see otherwise lawful citizens doing cruel and heartless things. An example of both of these can be found in Shigaraki\u2019s backstory. Abused by his father all through childhood, little Tenko Shimura\u2019s life became a living hell when his Quirk awakened, killing everyone in his family. In his dire emotional state, he ran away from home. But nobody on the streets helped the lone child. When an old woman did ask about him, she was instantly freaked out by his appearance and left in a hurry without a care for the child. Little did she know, this young person would one day become Tomura Shigaraki and attempt to destroy the whole country. After Shigaraki\u2019s death and the end of the war, the old lady appeared again in My Hero Academia Chapter 427. She was one of the citizens who hated Shigaraki and questioned whether the heroes couldn\u2019t have stopped him sooner. The irony is that she could\u2019ve been the one to prevent Tenko from being Shigaraki if only she helped the child on the street. But she didn\u2019t and instead criticized the heroes who put their lives on the line to protect civilians like her. After this, fans unanimously believe her to be one of the worst characters in My Hero Academia. As one Reddit user wrote, \u201cAnyone else notice these two ladies are the same? Ironically, she wonders if he could be stopped sooner when she\u2019s one of the ones who didn\u2019t help him in the first place.\u201d Another joined, \u201cButterfly effect, you never know what consequences your actions, or lack thereof, might have even years in the future. I wonder what she\u2019d say if she knew Shigaraki was once a small boy she didn\u2019t help.\u201d \u201cI think that\u2019s the point of putting her again, to show that you can also be part of the problem and etc.,\u201d commented a third, explaining the role of the lady in the story. Shigaraki\u2019s past is one of the most heartbreaking parts of the story. The old lady\u2019s comeback reminds readers that he was not born evil, instead was created from people\u2019s cruelty and All For One\u2019s schemes.
