Last week, we got access to an early MHA leak that confirmed the chapter would be just seven pages long and battle focused. However, the translations were hard to understand and left many fans confused about what was happening in the intense fight between All Might and All For One. Thankfully, the usual MHA leaker just leaked Chapter 397 with better translations!
Here’s a complete breakdown of MHA Chapter 397 spoilers, the latest installment of the epic manga series by Kohei Horikoshi.
MHA 397 Spoilers Explained: All Might vs All For One continues.
The battle between All Might and All For One reaches a new level of intensity in MHA chapter 397. The former Symbol of Peace is determined to stop the villain’s rampage and save his successor, Deku, from his clutches. However, All For One is not an easy opponent to deal with, as he has a vast arsenal of quirks at his disposal.
- The chapter begins with All Might saying that he feels bad for beating up a young man when he’s over 50 years old. He then notices that All For One is pretty frustrated, so he decides to take advantage of it by trash-talking him. He tells him that he isn’t a demon lord, since even a quirkless man can fight him.
- All For One gets angrier and unleashes a devastating combination of quirks: Springlike Limbs + Physical Boost + Air Cannon + Rivet Stab + Dark Ball + Light Dust. The resulting explosion sends All Might flying, but he manages to survive thanks to the automatic guard of his Utility Cloak – Dark Shadow. He realizes that the taunting is working and that he has to keep provoking All For One.
MHA Chapter 397 Spoilers: All Might remembers Nana
Hercules, the AI system of All Might’s armor, says that the cape and various parts of the armor’s arms have been seriously damaged, but All Might asks him to activate “support mode” on maximum capacity. He then charges at All For One with full speed and power.
All For One says that All Might got it all wrong, this isn’t even a fight: he’s just taking out the garbage. He mocks All Might for relying on support items and says that they will never be enough to defeat him. He then prepares another attack with his quirks.
- All Might remembers what he said to Deku during the cultural festival, that he had seen many pro heroes being defeated because they relied too much on support items. He also thinks back to his first meeting with Nana Shimura, his mentor and the one who gave him the One For All.
- She was floating on top of several defeated villains and asked if Toshinori was really planning on fighting all of them with just the metal pipe he had in his hands. She then told him that he has to train hard and master One For All, because it’s not just a power, but a will that connects all the users.
Cuts back to the present and All Might delivers a powerful punch to All For One. He says that he doesn’t need any fancy gadgets or quirks to beat him, because he has something that he doesn’t: the spirit of One For All.
The chapter ends as All For One laughs and says, “I didn’t fall for your pathetic bait. My victory is guaranteed, so I decided to stop and take out the garbage.” All Might replies, “Could you stop making excuses? It’s honestly hard to watch.”
