About this Collection
The forty-first volume of the My Hero Academia manga series continues the climactic final arc, as the battle against All For One and the remnants of the Paranormal Liberation Front reaches its decisive conclusion. This installment collects the chapters that follow the heroes' desperate struggle to protect society and the students of U.A. High, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance.
In "History's Greatest Villain," Midoriya faces a chilling revelation as All-For-One, fully in control of Shigaraki, exposes the long-buried truth behind Shimura’s fall and the origins of his own power. With his forearms destroyed and banished from Shigaraki’s mind, Deku must confront the full weight of a plan that stretches far beyond the present battle. Written by Kohei Horikoshi and Caleb Cook, with art by Horikoshi and inks by a team of master craftsmen, this pivotal issue sees the cover by Horikoshi capturing the intensity of a moment that reshapes everything.
