Kohei Horikoshi bravely makes My Hero Academia Chapter 296, "Hellish Hell," true to its title. As the manga wraps up its most intense arc so far, it doesn't end with a simple goodbye but with a major impact that will significantly affect its next storyline.
With the number of deaths and the severity of destruction the city has endured after the epic battle, everyone now doubts Endeavor's credibility in My Hero Academia Chapter 296. However, it looks like the Number One hero can be in a better place despite the uncertainties with this change.
According to Comicbook, Viz Media silently changed a page in the latest chapter online, making Endeavor's future as a hero more positive. In the original text, his career is said to be finished "for sure," while the altered one noted it "might be over."
Although this change seemed small, it gave a different tone to Endeavor's fate as a Pro Hero. If the manga's future chapter would follow this storyline, he could still have the public's support.
However, it still depends if Endeavor will like to explain himself after Dabi's revelations. The latter succeeded in ruining his father's reputation. Now, the question is, will Endeavor bounce back after what happened in My Hero Academia Chapter 296?
Some are now disregarding Endeavor, while others demand his retirement, CBR noted. Now that a lot of heroes are gone, and the higher-ranking ones are rejected, who will protect the people from another League of Villains attack?
By the looks of it, there will be a rise of a new generation of heroes. Indeed, the professional heroes are greatly affected by the rubble and destruction, but the UA students' spirits remain strong.
As All For One is set to return, someone should up his game and bravely face him in another epic battle. The Sensei wants to free his "real body," so he is undoubtedly planning for something big that fans may start seeing in the next arc.
Although nothing is confirmed yet, one thing is for sure, Horikoshi is "preparing the readers" for something "hurtful" happening in the future chapters. Fans still have to wait for two weeks before seeing what will happen next in My Hero Academia Chapter 297, per Devdiscourse.
Weekly Shonen Jump is on a break, resulting in other manga series' brief hiatus. However, when it returns, fans should make themselves ready, as Twitter user Atushi teased, "the worst is not over yet."
This seems to hint at All For One's resurrection and the heroes' return despite still mourning their losses. After My Hero Academia Chapter 296, Chapter 297 may finally drop on Sunday, January 17, 2021.
