Fans know All Might is the Symbol of Peace and the greatest in the entire series. After Kamino, All Might’s character dwindled quite a bit due to having lost the powers of the One For All. However, now, it appears that the character is resurgent once again and is fighting against death as well as his fate itself, as he tangles with All For One in combat. This could either result in the greatest victory of All Might ever, or, the end of the line for his heroic character.
The Rise Of All Might
All Might is a brilliant characterand quite possibly one of the very best written by Horikoshi in his entire story. He is the one who was responsible for raising Deku to be the way that he is currently. He maintained peace in Japan and became a Symbol that no one ever expected. Above all, he fought against the tyranny of All For One and gave the people hope with a smile on his face. All Might was born a Quirkless boy yet, his fighting spirit as a Hero was ever-present. Recently, fans got a look at his past when he met Nana Shimura for the very first time. Yagi was already fighting against some thugs with a metal pipe in his hand, however, he lacked the power to pull through. Yet, his conviction was always there. This conviction got through to Nana and she ended up taking him under her wing.
Nana trained him in the art of fighting, as did Gran Torino, and eventually, the One For All was passed on to him as well. All Might engaged in a fights with All For One and then moved to America, where he grew further as a Hero. He returned to Japan and conquered the Villains, becoming the Symbol of Peace in the process. All Might’s story is nothing short of incredible and one that fans hold very close to their hearts, especially given how it concluded in Kamino, where he used the last bits of his power to overwhelm All For One and put him down for good.
All Might’s Death Foreseen
All Might is the strongest Hero of all timein the series and that means he also ends up fighting against the most dangerous enemies. The most villainous entity in the entirety ofMy Hero Academiais none other than All For One himself. This particular character has terrorized Japan since Quirks were born and it was inevitable for All Might to end up fighting against him. Given that he had killed every vestige of One For All prior to All Might, it was only fate that these two would end up trading blows. They ended up clashing on several occasions and All For One certainly left his mark on All Might.

In return, All Might also defeated him twice and put fear in him. During their penultimate fight, which happened before Kamino, All Might defeated All For One in what was very thrilling combat. In this fight, he defeated All For One, however, this came at the expense of a very terrible injury that he received himself. A big portion of his torso was destroyed and so were his lungs. He needed extensive surgery to be fixed and even when he was, his dear friend, Sir Nighteye, advised him to not continue as a Hero again. This was down to the fact that Nighteye had the ability to see the future. Upon seeing the future of All Might, he could only see darkness. According to him, All Might would die a very terrible death against a powerful villain that he did not recognize at the time. It was fate and it was unavoidable, which meant that the clouds of death would always loom over Yagi Toshinori.
All Might Vs All For One
At the time, fans did not know what fight this was going to be. Initially, it was believed that this villain could notbe All For One, given that Nighteye was not able to recognize who this person was. However, in the Final Saga of My Hero Academia, things finally got clearer. All Might decided to take a stand once again in this war and play his role as a Hero here as well. While everyone else was fighting, it did not sit right with them to just do nothing. His Hero instinct kicked in and he decided to join the battlefield once again. His enemy was, once again, All For One. When it comes to All For One, the villain had risen to completely new heights by using the Rewind power. He had reached a state beyond his prime and, just as he demonstrated, his powers appeared to be on a completely different level altogether.
With the Rewind Quirk, it also makes a lot of sense why Sir Nighteye was not able to recognize who this person was. This version of All For One looks much younger in comparison and almost unrecognizable to the monstrous being that he was before. Yet, he is much stronger, given that he is in his prime state. Regardless, this is the fateful battle where All Might is destined to die and his death could potentially be knocking at the door already.
All Might’s Fate
Fans have seen quite a lot of the fight between All Might and All For One already. These two characters have been fighting for the past few chapters. Much to the surprise of everyone, All Might is actually doing quite well. Thanks to Melissa, he has gained access to incredible Hero Equipment in the form of an armor that lets him channel the power of various Quirks of his own students. All Might also has his incredible battle experience, using which he has shocked all the fans. It goes without saying that he has done brilliantly, given that he has managed to land some blows on All For One. Despite being Quirkless at this point, All Might has injured his nemesis to quite a great degree. From stopping him from regenerating to forcing him to Rewind a lot faster – he has a plan and he is certainly making it work. However, one misstep could prove to be fatal for him.
All Might himself has also taken quite a lot of damage. In fact, he has received a very gruesome injury and is coughing up blood already. His armor is severely compromised and he cannot put up a fight for an extended period of time. This only means that the fight will conclude very soon and fans will find out who is the victor here. The fact is, a big theme when it comes to All Might has been to twist fate itself and conquer it. Furthermore, All Might simply cannot afford to let All For One get to Deku as that would lead to utter destruction and, essentially, losing this war.
What that means is All Might will either twist fate and survive after managingto defeat All For One, or, he is going to sacrifice himself while achieving a victory. It remains to be seen which path Horikoshi takes with the Number One Hero, however, it can be said with confidence that All Might is going to win here. Regardless of whether he dies or not, he will cement himself as the Symbol of Peace forever.
