After a week-long hiatus, My Hero Academia is set to return with Chapter 422. Here are the release dates and some spoilers for what to expect.
One of the biggest twists in My Hero Academia was revealed when Deku Quirkless reappeared. The would-be hero met a grisly end when he lost both of his arms to Shigaraki in addition to losing One For All and the quirks of the past users.
Eri’s Rewind allowed him to regain his arms, but he appeared to have lost all of his quirks. But, Deku has Aizawa and his classmates, as well as the other Pro Heroes who are still capable of fighting, on his side, so all is not lost.
Deku is prepared to face the greatest villain with the support of his companions. The best part of My Hero Academia Chapter 422 is how, after losing his quirks, he manages to accomplish that.

Spoilers for My Hero Academia Chapter 422
SHUEISHA/KOHEI HORIKOSHI
Chapter 422 of My Hero Academia is titled “Izuku Midoriya – Rising.” The chapter’s main theme, as the title implies, is Deku’s ascent to heroism in spite of losing his quirk.
As the chapter opens, Aoyama is shown supporting Deku while he stands, but All For One’s tentacles cause him to fall behind. Still, he orders Deku to run. Aizawa requests that Shirakumo open a different portal, but the erstwhile antagonist has used up all of his quirk.
But the other heroes and the pupils of Class 1-A all contribute to keeping All For One occupied and ensuring that Deku approaches the villain unscathed. “Full release of all Quirk factors” is what All For One claims to employ. However, as he is no longer swayed by emotions, this fight will be stronger than the one he had against Bakugo.
As everyone applauds Deku, Hagakure, Shoji, Tsuyu, Momo, Kirishima, Mina, Gentle Criminal, and others assist him. Even though Ochako is hardly conscious when in a helicopter, she still wants Deku to give it his all. In another scene, All Might is being treated for his wounds by US pilots while he recalls the moment he saw Deku sprinting ahead.
When All Might saw Deku sprint ahead, he was motivated to follow suit, and that’s when Deku turned into his all-time favorite hero. As Inko Midoriya applauds her son, Deku strikes All For One with the final remnants of One For All in the opening scene of My Hero Academia Chapter 422.
