Spoilers for the latest My Hero Academia chapter reveal that Deku's dramatic loss of arms is swiftly undone in the following chapter, removing much of the tension. Deku receives a rewind from Eri's horn, restoring his arms and powers almost immediately. While necessary for the story, this quick resolution erases the potential consequences of Deku's actions. The rapid recovery robs the story of potential drama, as seen in Bakugo's earlier arc. Deku's role in the final battle against All for One may now involve reaching out to Shigaraki emotionally, given his lack of arms and powers. Despite the disappointing lack of impact from Deku's loss, there is still potential for drama as the series progresses towards a final confrontation. My Hero Academia follows Deku's journey from a quirkless fan to inheriting the powerful One-For-All quirk and training to become a hero at UA.
