Chapter 427 of My Hero Academia continues to explore important character developments and endings, shaping the plot as it nears its conclusion.
Titled “Who is Tomura Shigaraki?”, this chapter delves into emotional moments and answers for key characters in the series.
This chapter opens with a television program that reflects the public's perception of Tomura Shigaraki, portraying him as a feared and misunderstood figure.
Meanwhile, Deku visits Spinner at the hospital, bringing Shigaraki's final message. Spinner, initially hostile, is moved by the message and reflects on his conflicted feelings towards the former leader.
This interaction further deepens Spinner's determination to commemorate Shigaraki through literary work, initially proposed by Deku as a manga.
At the same time, Kai Chisaki faces the consequences for his actions, recalling his past when he was confronted by the boss Shie Hassaikai.
#mha427 #mhaspoilers This page breaks my heart. The way Izuku lets Spinner take his pain out on him, the way he's mature and serious, showing a sense of authority by telling the people working in the facility to back off and let him handle it….this fight has aged him 20 years. pic.twitter.com/D0aPIWYwGi

Despite Chisaki's remorse and attempts to atone, the boss remains unmoved, showing the unchangeable nature of his choices.

Chapter 427 deftly balances closure on past conflicts and characters while still setting the stage for the future. It's a testament to Horikoshi's storytelling talent and the emotional depth that has resonated with fans throughout the series.
