My Hero Academia: 10 Insane Events Coming To The Anime

4. Americans And Zombies

In one of the series's greatest fights with its main cast of heroes surprisingly absent, America superhero Star And Stripe - a self-proclaimed student of All Might who followed his legacy after he rescued her family when she was a kid - fights a dangerously overpowered All For One (AFO) Shigaraki.

Star is America's top hero for good reason. Her quirk, "New Order", allows her to change reality by touching a person or object and saying their name. Though she has a limit on how many she can affect at once, she's made impossibly powerful by her ability to turn the atmosphere unbreathable, or her ability to kill with just a touch and a word.

Another reason she's so dangerous is that she doesn't hesitate to go in for the kill, putting her all into destroying AFO Shigaraki, turning him into what many have dubbed "zombie Shigaraki" when most of his flesh is burned off in their heavy artillery aerial battle.

She's even able to dominate AFO within his own quirk, and though she doesn't succeed in defeating him, her actions buy the series's main heroes time to defeat the nigh undefeatable AFO Shigaraki once and for all.
