Why is the Hero killer still alive?
First off, I got through the anime first and then read all chapters that happened after season 4. Now I’m starting from the beginning of the manga and I’m at ch94, lol I know totally backwards but whatever.
Anyways, I’m currently on ch94 pg17 and they just showed the hero killer???
Didn’t they say he died in the anime? In both the anime and the manga it was said that a rib pierced his lung but there he is????
Am i missing something?

    I am not a BnHA scholar, but I think I can answer your question. I get what you're saying because in the anime they were all, "though, the Hero Killer is gone, his ideology continues on," and then it panned to Toga and Dabi and stuff because he inspired them. But I don't think that they meant he died. They just meant that he is gone and his message is still here.

    And writing this out, I understand why you thought the Hero Killer died but I think that he is just being put on the back because he will come back later. This is just speculation but I think there is going to be a Prison Break Arc when all of the villains who were locked up are given another chance to cause havoc.
    Hopefully this addressed your concerns. ( ̄∇ ̄")

    He hadn't died, he had actually passed out. The police captured him and put him in prison so he was never mentioned again

    Actually he has been mentioned a lot of time...

    He is imprisoned. When All Might defeated One For All and got to see him in the jail we even can see Stain in one of the panels.

    Yes I'm aware, since that's the panel the OP referred to. I just meant he was never mentioned as an active villain. He's just been sitting in prison

It was mentioned in the manga that there is a traitor either among the faculty or the students, whose your prime suspect?

I’m going with toro hagakure. She is always so nosy and with her stealth it would be easy to relay a message to the enemy without getting caught.
I’m also heavily side eyeing cementos but that one is unsubstantiated. Mainly because I think he’s sus.

BTW, you don’t win anything, I just want to know who you think the traitor is, because this is driving me insane.

    I don't think there is one though

    I’m not satisfied with this answer ;-; I’ve been thinking about for so long now! I need to know!

    I also agree with hagakure, but shes my favorite so i hope im wrong. another possibility would have to be Denki, idk i just get a vibe from him

    NOOO, DENKI IS MY BABY. plus, there's no legit way or theory that he can be the traitor

    Lol, chill. Larry only said he’s getting a “a vibe”, just like I think cementos is sus. We’re just poking a little fun. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ but seriously I need to know who the traitor is.

    Fyro-Mean June 2, 2020 6:26 pm

    One of my favourite fanfics posited the theory that it's Vlad King, and I am inclined to agree. Though it remains to be seen if he's the leagues spy or just All For One's

    Chalian June 3, 2020 3:36 am

    Its been long since said the the author forgot about the traitor :P maybe hell bring it back

    Fujoshiotaku June 3, 2020 12:37 pm

    Lmao, it'd be great if there are multiple traitors, and none of them are my babies

    Mangaddict June 8, 2020 7:49 pm

    I actually think there is one because Horikoshi let some hints about traitors meaning he does remember there is one and it's still included in the main story. I don't think he would've brought the topic up again if he just intended to burry this subplot. Also i recently read an interview talking about Uraraka and he said about her that "she doesn't have a hidden side" with a wink so i think Horikoshi pays attention to all theories about the traitor and is trying to mislead us so we won't find out until he decides it's time for him (or her) to show up.

So I’ve been thinking about how hawks will end up from here on out now that his entire back and wings have been burnt to a crisp (chapter:272ish) and from my view I hate to say it but his quirk is PROBABLY done for. I obviously hope NOT but here’s my reasoning:

-Back when he killed best jeanist he had a conversation with him beforehand and jeanist told him “you can’t recover what has been lost” when he was talking about how one of his lungs was lost due to the battle, even though recovery girl healed him.

-back when endeavor fought the high end his FEATHERS were burned but shortly afterward he revealed that it’s ok, because his feathers can grow back within a day. Not once did he mention if his actual winged limbs can grow back if they’ve been severely damaged which if so, YAY OBVIOUSLY, but if not, then he’s pretty much out of commission.

-from what we know, Dabi’s fire quirk is even more powerful than endeavors and Todoroki’s since pretty much all of his skin has been burned off so this might mean that the damage will be too great to recover from even if recovery girl heals Hawks.

I do have two ways though that might mean he’ll be alright and able to recover his wings:

-with time Eri can rewind the damage done and give him back his wings, in which case he’ll probably do some other kind of work involving the case until another crucial battle arises and all of a sudden he’s got his wings back and swoops in to save the day

OR

-recovery girl heals him and he reveals that his winged limbs can also regrow, which is what I’m really hoping for.


What do you guys think? Thoughts? More theories? Honestly Hawks is too important of a character in my opinion for Horikoshi to kill off but who knows....

    kael2m June 1, 2020 1:29 pm

    as his undercover spying mission has been discovered this part is not I focus on because he most likely either go into hiding or relieved from hero work T_T but you do have a point... we need more info about his quirk and as his wings is main part of it with it burned he is considered crippled T_T

    Mikitatsu June 1, 2020 8:44 pm

    I actually don't believe it's over for him yet. For me it seems to be the same case as with Mirio. Both characters got a lot of attention and got crucial tasks assigned to them during their missions, the author wouldn't do so if he planned to cast them aside soon after or he would just kill them instantly. Even if he's crippled, if not Recovery Girl, then Eri can restore him just like she will restore Mirio at some point.

    I've got the feeling there's still some character developement planned for Hawks and I'm more concerned about his mental state after waking up. The fact that he killed twice (in my opinion rather once) even though he aspired to be another kind of hero will be heavy on him, it's possible that he starts doubting himself and maybe he doesn't even want to be a hero anymore. Although I don't believe that Best Jeanist is dead either, since I can't imagine them to sacrifice one of their heroes just for the cause. And Hawks was way too calm before and after that, while in Twice's case he hesitated until the bitter end. He isn't someone who goes around killing left and right just because he's forced to do so, since he has the same kind of aura around him like Deku, Bakugou, Shoto and co.

    Also, we don't know yet what the answer was that Dabi gave him regarding his question who the hell he is. Judging by his expression it was a quite shocking answer. On top of that they seem to know each other, or else Dabi wouldn't know his real name. I've got a premonition that there will be something happening between Hawks, Endeavour and Dabi.

    Jesus June 1, 2020 9:01 pm

    To be honest I'm not even sure if he will survive this battle or the wounds he has right now.
    The thing with Hawks is, he plays an important role for Dabi because:
    1) he's the only one who knows Dabi's identity, which is obviously very important later on
    2) he used to be an Endeavour fan and is now working with him. So Hawks will connect Dabi and Endeavour (Touya theory) which is also very very important if the Dabi/Touya theory is true.

    So that's actually reasons why he will survive. But on the other hand, those are also reasons for Dabi to kill Hawks.
    Dabi most likely only told Hawks his true identity because he was just about to kill him anyways. Dabi didn't expect Hawks to be saved last minute. That's why I believe Hawks will either be killed by Dabi sooner or later or die because of the burnings he suffers right now.

    Of course there's always the possibility that he dies, I don't hope so because he's one of my favorites but only Horikoshi Sensei knows.

    But there's still something odd.... Hawks and Dabi "worked together" a while back. Why going out of his way letting Hawks infilitrate them when he never trustet him in the first place? The way he just adressed him by his real name out of nowhere even though he laid down this name when he was still a child assumes that he knew him from the start. And most certainly he knew what Hawks was up to, so he could've killed him during their meeting after Endeavours Battle with the High End if this was his only intention. But no...instead he let him infiltrate the PLF and even told him his identity, just to kill him right after? No, there's something more about Dabi and Hawks than it seems. Either way Hawks will play an important role, whether he dies or not after that is another question.

    Yeah, I noticed that too but decided to leave it because we don’t know enough yet.
    I do agree though. It is extremely suspicious that he just let Hawks in despite knowing him previously. It just doesn’t make sense. Unless he wants tomura to lose so that he can take the top rank for himself among the group. We’ll see...
