My Hero Academia makes a promise it couldn't keep.
My Hero Academia is one of the most successful manga/anime franchises of the past decade, but if it stayed true to the premise of its first chapter it could have become an unrivaled masterpiece. In the series' world, the majority of the population has a Quirk that gives them superpowers.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Being able to overcome superpowered enemies through sheer hard work and determination could have been so much more conceptually interesting. There are so many other directions the series could have gone by focusing on a powerless Deku working to become a hero without a Quirk. He could have learned to fight with his wits rather than powers like Batman, or built a super-suit like Iron Man.
Deku Should Have Remained Quirkless In My Hero Academia Suddenly, Deku is bequeathed All Might's One for All Quirk. While there is no denying that author Kohei Horikoshi built a captivating and entertaining saga from there, Deku gaining All for One is the least interesting direction My Hero Academia could have possibly taken. It feels like a betrayal of the premise that was established in the first chapters.
Deku gaining All for One may be conceptually boring and thematically inconsistent with the previous episodes, but at least he has to earn his new powers. It's not as interesting as Deku being powerless, but it is admittedly still in-character.
My Hero Academia Betrayed Its Initial Promise Deku going from the kid with no Quirk to wielding the most powerful Quirk feels like a betrayal of the promise established by the series. It's a testament to Horikoshi's storytelling abilities that he not only managed to still make My Hero Academia so interesting, but also kept developing Deku in a compelling character that remained inspiring despite immediately getting what he wanted.
