6. Heroic Murderers

With stakes getting higher and higher, it becomes less of a surprise to see how far heroes are willing to go to save others, even if it involves cold-blooded murder. The most shocking instance, however, involves a fan-favourite hero murdering a fan-favourite villain for the greater good.

Twice, perhaps the most humanised member of the League of Villains, is also one of its most dangerous, with his infinite doubles making him a one-man army. This forces the undercover Hawks to target him the moment he refuses to give up, with Hawks murdering Twice with his blade-sharp feathers. It's a shocking turn, when many were rooting for Twice or Jin to get a redemption arc or a happy ending.

Hawks isn't the only assassin hero raised by the Hero Public Safety Commission, however.

Lady Nagant was a famous and beloved sniper hero with pink and blue hair who was, behind the scenes, tasked with multiple hits by the Commission. She eventually became disillusioned with the work, traumatised by the blood on her hands, and went against the former Public Safety chairman and murdered him. She escapes during the Tartarus jailbreak arc and faces down Deku at All For One's behest.
