Any predictions for My Hero Academia. Somehow I don't see it as heroes beat the bad guys and lock them up yes Tartarus is gone but surely there are other places. Afo will be destroyed hopefully, he deserves to pay for what he's done and being killed by the little child he mainupilted would be poetic justice. I'd like for Shoto and Dabi to accept each other cause they are 2 of my favorites along with Miruko, Deku and Shigaraki who better live.
My overall predictions for the ending haven't changed! I don't make specific plot predictions, but overall: Dabi, Toga, and Shigaraki will be saved and help defeat AFO in the final battle; hence, they will be forgiven by society and welcomed back. Realistic or not (as in our world standards), I don't really see any other ending for them.
Specifically:
Shigaraki will probably destroy AFO in the end. The central question of his arc is what he stated in the most recent chapter: "Who am I?" Unfortunately the answer is probably going to be "a hero" instead of "Shimura Tenko" (with imo the latter being more thematically powerful but less likely as the story seems to be backtracking on its criticisms of heroes).
I also do think Touya will reconcile with his family and sit around a table with the Todorokis.... including Endeavor. As much as I don’t like it, the narrative caters to Endeavor. The idea that Endeavor won’t have that complete family around a table in the end, as much as I wouldn’t mind it or would be happy with a more tenuous "we'll work on things" openish ending, just doesn’t seem to jive with how the story is framing the Todofam. Plus at this point Horikoshi seems to be focusing Dabi's internal conflict on the Todorokis.
Toga... well she's a great character but much like Ochaco her endgame is probably helping a male character and ending up with Shigaraki and with friends. (Ending up with Shigaraki does not mean romantically--just that they'll be together and close some way in the end).
