My Hero Academia Chapter 418 spoilers reveal the chapter’s title: “A Small Heart.” The chapter begins with Deku standing in front of little Tenko after his Quirk is activated for the first time and he ends up killing their dog while his sister Hana fearfully approaches him.

In a desperate attempt to stop the tragedy, Deku suddenly turns into a child and holds Tenko’s hands. Deku begins to decay but he resolutely holds on. When Tenko tearfully asks why he’s doing this, Deku answers that it’s because he’s crying.

Tenko says he chose to kill his family because that’s the only way he can bear this burden. Deku feels his emotions directly connecting through their joined hands but he keeps holding on. He feels hatred/catharsis and sadness/confusion in a balance inside Tenko. Tenko tells Deku to go away but Deku declines, saying he feels relieved when someone holds his hand and remembers Iida during the Dark Deku Rescue.

Tenko and Deku vanish and in the next panel, Tenko is seen playing with two friends who say he can play as All Might. He and Deku are back once again and this time the original League of Villains are standing beside them. Tenko’s hair begins to turn white.

In the next scene, some people are cheering for Shigaraki while a cop notices that the fingers around the Villain are disappearing. It suddenly turns dark and in the next panel, Kotaro Shimura is having dinner with a mysterious person. The person asks him if Tenko’s Quirk has manifested yet.

Shigaraki says these aren’t his memories. The mysterious person says, “You foolish vessel. This useless boy was about to make you give up? You want to become stronger, but you’ve never gotten rid of your weakness… What a fool, Tenko Shimura. To this day, you’ve never made a single decision on your own,” 

Suddenly, All For One’s giant head appears in the vestige world, signaling his return.
