Why Nessarose’s Slippers Are Silver (& Not Ruby) in ‘Wicked: For Good’

8 Seasons Later, My Hero Academia Still Refuses To Answer Its First & Most Important Question
The idea of what makes a hero is a recurring question in My Hero Academia. At the beginning of the series, Midoriya seems like an impossible candidate – he’s born without any superpowers, or ‘Quirk’. This leaves both him and the audience wondering how he could ever become a hero. While All Might encourages him to believe he can be a hero early on, he immediately gives Midoriya the powerful ‘One for All’ Quirk. This feels like a contradiction – All Might initially suggests heroism comes from within, but then provides a power boost. Even by Season 8, the anime hasn’t clearly resolved this question of whether someone needs powers to be a true hero.
