Yes, Deku had one of his quirks, Danger Sense, stolen by Tomura Shigaraki during their final battle, though a popular theory suggests his original quirk might have been stolen by Dr. Garaki (Ujiko) as a baby, leaving him "quirkless" before receiving One For All. Shigaraki's theft of Danger Sense was a major plot point, allowing him to use it against Deku, but the idea of Deku's inherent quirk being stolen remains a strong fan theory, not confirmed canon, but supported by the suspicious circumstances surrounding his quirk diagnosis.
After encouragement and support from his friends, he later returns to the school and leads the Heroes against the Villains in one final battle to save the world. After the Final War, Izuku managed to defeat Tomura and All For One, but at the cost of rendering himself Quirkless once more.
Decay was something that AFO created (a modified version of Overhaul's Quirk) and put to Tenko Shimura as a part of a long con to use Nana's own familial trauma (her son/Tenko's father's resentment) to create the perfect vessel for him. Tenko's Dad has been meeting up AFO before and helps him every now and then.
He can actually copy the quirk, he just can't use the stocked up power. So he'd essentially have the same quirk the first One for All user had, its basically useless without any stocked up power. The stocked up power likely included black whip so he would not be able to use it.
Yes, in the manga's final chapters, Deku does lose the power of One For All, becoming quirkless again after the power fulfills its purpose of defeating All For One, though faint "embers" remain temporarily before fading, allowing him to transition into a new phase as a teacher inspired by his journey. The power's will was to end, not be eternal, making his final state a deliberate, poetic conclusion to its generational cycle, freeing him from the burden.
Many would argue that All For One is the rarest of all the Quirks, but we believe it is New Order. Cathleen Bate, known as Star and Stripe, once wielded the Quirk until Tomura Shigiraki stole it.
Deku Awakens His Second Quirk: Black Whip!
January 29th (1/29) is "Izuku Day" for fans of My Hero Academia because the numbers 1-2-9 can be read as "I-zu-ku" in Japanese (1=Ichi/I, 2=Ni/Zu, 9=Kyū/Ku), creating a playful phonetic pun for the protagonist, Izuku Midoriya (Deku). It's an unofficial fan-created celebration, similar to December 9th (12/9), based on Japanese number-reading traditions.
The actual first person with a quirk (before the term quirk was even used) was the glowing baby in this image, who was around a good deal earlier than Destro and his mother.
My Hero Academia: Deku's Unique Quirks Unveiled
Eventually, even the original One For All Quirk is transferred, succeeding in destroying Tomura's mental scape, while also destroying the Quirk itself, leaving Izuku Quirkless once again, with just the embers remaining. At long last, the will of One For All vanquishes All For One for good.
Bakugo feels that Deku looks down on him, and since Deku has some of the characteristics of a hero like his persistence and intelligence and want to save people, Bakugo is secretly afraid that he might surpass him.
Though upon Yuga discovering the truth about One For All and Izuku having been Quirkless just like him, Yuga is thrown even deeper into despair, seeing just how much Izuku has fought for his beliefs and to protect others, while Yuga aids his mortal enemy. Yuga's guilt of being a traitor.
Anime Debut
Decay ( 崩 ほう 壊 かい , Hōkai?) was the Quirk used by Tomura Shigaraki, given to him by All For One.
My Hero Academia features several canonically LGBTQ+ characters, including Himiko Toga (confirmed bisexual by creator Kohei Horikoshi) and two transgender characters: Magne (transgender woman) and Tiger (transgender man) from the Wild, Wild Pussycats, who have received official confirmation and in-story representation.
Yes, the My Hero Academia anime's final season (Season 8) concluded in late 2025, with the final episode airing around December 13, 2025, bringing the entire anime series to an official end after its run since 2016. The final season adapted the manga's conclusion, providing closure to the epic story of heroes and villains, and was met with high ratings and positive reception.
It's probably a reference to the Apollo 13 moon mission where a bunch of stuff went wrong but the crew made it home safely.
There's no single "worst" quirk, as it depends on the criteria (uselessness vs. self-harm), but strong contenders are Gecko (Spinner's weak wall-clinging), Self-Detonation (a one-time-use death sentence), and Pop Off (Mineta's sticky balls), though Mineta's clever application makes it surprisingly versatile. Other contenders include Quad Arms (extra limbs with minimal power) and Poison Gas (harms the user).
In My Hero Academia, Ochaco Uraraka is canonically confirmed as Izuku "Deku" Midoriya's romantic partner and future wife, with the series epilogue (Chapter 431) showing them start a relationship after the final war, where Deku acknowledges her as his personal hero and they openly commit to each other. While other characters like Melissa Shield were potential love interests in movies, Ochaco is the main character who shares a mutual, evolving romantic journey with Deku, culminating in their confirmed future together, as depicted in the manga's time skip.
THE QUIRK CALLED GOD GIVES THE USER THE ABILITY TO CREATE GODS WITH DIFFERENT POWERS.
Ghost refers to the Quirk's ability of translucency, permeability, and levitation of ghosts. His ability of interrupting the workings of electrical devices is based on supernatural activities involving spirits.
IQ ( IQ アイキュー , Ai Kyū?) is the Quirk used by Saiko Intelli.
