Template:Tomura Synopsis/Final Act

Star and Stripe Arc
During the next month, Tomura was forced to rest by All For One in order to wait for his body to be completed. The process, which would result in the vestiges of Tomura and All For One fusing to become one new being, ended up being expedited due to Tomura's extreme hatred and resistance toward All For One, resulting in him reaching 97-98% completion in just about 35 days.

When All For One receives word that No. 1 American Hero, Star and Stripe, is making her way over to Japan to assist the Heroes, he sends Tomura out into the field to confront her, as well as to steal her Quirk, New Order. Riding a flying Nomu, "Tomura", who due to the process is in a state where he recognizes himself as both Tomura Shigaraki AND All For One, confronts Star and Stripe and her army of fighter pilots as they prepare to do battle.

"Tomura" uses a combination of Radio Waves, Air Cannon, and Heavy Payload to release an enormous wave of electric energy toward Star and Stripe and the jets, which they manage to evade. As the two taunt each other, Star and Stripe uses her Quirk, which can impose a new rule on anything she touches and names, to make the air 100 metres in front of her disappear. This results in "Tomura" being forced to suddenly hold his breath, thinking about how it's a horrifying Quirk, but also that he wants it.

The jets then shoot lasers at "Tomura" from every angle, which he simply uses Reflect and Scatter to shoot back, while his body regenerates. "Tomura" notices the air vacuum has come undone right after Star had used a new rule to catch the laser, wondering if that is the limit of New Order. He stretches his body and blasts his way forward toward her, but she simply jumps forward as well, punching him in the face.

Star talks about when she was originally saved by All Might as a kid and that he inspired her to be a Hero, something that greatly irritates "Tomura" as no matter where he goes it's always about All Might. Now that she's touched him, Star uses New Order to declare that if "Tomura Shigaraki" were to move even an inch, his heart will stop.

However, "Tomura" thinks about how she fell for his trap, all the while the real Tomura continues to resist and fight back against the All For One vestige, who gleefully tells Tomura to let his hatred flow as it will deliver their glorious future. This fighting starts to explode to the outside, causing Star to be shocked that he's able to move, with his hair suddenly growing long, with him once again thinking back to his old family home, where his hatred grew.

After exploding to blow back Star and Stripe, "Tomura" thinks to himself about all of New Order's limitations, and how Star's rule didn't work on him due to not being completely sure of his own identity, whether he's Tomura, All For One, or even "Tenko Shimura". Nevertheless, the All For One side of his consciousness thinks about how badly he wants the Quirk to try for himself.

The fighter pilot of the plane he was standing on jostles him off, forcing him to land back on the flying Nomu. However, before he is able to do anything else, "Tomura" is sent flying backward by a giant air visage of Star and Stripe using Fist Bump to the Earth. Before he can recover, she then transforms a barrage of the jet's lasers into a giant laser sword called Keraunos, which she uses to strike down and pin "Tomura" downward into the ocean, as his Regeneration barely manages to keep up.

"Tomura" soon realizes that she's only using the lasers to keep him in place, and senses that *something* is approaching, preparing to end him once and for all. As it turns out, Star had requested an array of powerful missiles known as Tiamat, highly thermonuclear hypersonic missiles. In a desperate escape attempt, "Tomura" sends the Nomu out to distract the fighter pilots, after Star disengages the laser sword, leading them to shoot at what they believe to be Tomura. In the confusion, "Tomura" uses Decay to dig himself deep underground, just barely missing the impact of the explosion as Star's giant air visage throws the missiles directly on top of him.

Emerging from the hole a destroyed mess, "Tomura" once again gets the Nomu to distract the pilots, Bursting his way forward jumping from jet to jet toward Star, now that she's vulnerable in the sky. One of the pilots tries to get Star to crush them both in order to stop him, but unable to kill one of her friends, "Tomura" takes the opportunity to grab her face.

He proceeds to Decay Star and steal New Order at the same time, knowing that Star can only impose two rules for herself and for the other, while Star uses a last minute rule to attempt to stop the Decay, only delaying it after reaching her strength limit. "Tomura" excitedly shouts as he's successfully stolen New Order, calling Star an idiot for saving her body at the cost of losing the Quirk. He's about to use the Quirk to effect the air, when suddenly "Tomura" begins to explode from within.

In the vestige world, the fused Tomura and All For One are faced against the vestige of Star and Stripe, who before being stolen had used a rule on New Order, stating that it would revolt against other Quirks. As a result, Star begins to rampage through the inside of Tomura, tearing apart the vestiges of Tomura and All For One, as well as the many stolen Quirks, some of which she even successfully destroys like Reflect.

"Tomura" manages to take the Wing Quirk from the remains of the Nomu, and uses it to desperately escape the battlefield, to find someone to transfer New Order to, once again cursing All Might's existence. He crashlands into the hideout of prison escapee Kashiko Kashi, touching his face to take his Quirk and make him Quirkless, so that New Order can safely be transferred, allowing him to preserve it.

However instead, the Star and Stripe vestige mocks him, stating that thanks to all the Quirks she revolted against, it has resulted in the Quirk's destruction. As she starts to fade away, she declares even though she wasn't able to kill him, as long as people are willing to stand up to save each other, the will of heroism shall be passed on, and will put an end to him. Meanwhile, deep within the core of Tomura and All For One, the soul of a young Tenko Shimura, surrounded by hands, thinks about "a hero", and calls out to Izuku Midoriya.

U.A. Traitor Arc
"Tomura" makes it back to the League's secret base, still screaming over in pain due to New Order's damages on his body. All For One tells him to calm down, and that he needs to wait for his Quirk Factors to heal. However, "Tomura" just keeps yelling obscenities, screaming that as long as people remember All Might, he'll never know peace. All For One simply tells him that now that they've removed their greatest obstacle, they just need to take it easy for now, while Tomura is once again made to rest until his body is complete. During all this, Spinner tries to help Tomura up.

Sometime later, Spinner hears screaming down a dark hallway and goes to check on Tomura, only to see a monstrous mutated body emerging from the shadows, which then transforms into "Tomura" himself, crawling along on the floor, as the fingers on his broken hand also begin to regrow. All For One tells Spinner not to worry as his recovery is progressing smoothly, gradually overcoming the Quirk Singularity. Spinner asks if he's "still Tomura", which he claims he is. All For One and Skeptic proceed to convince Spinner to take the lead as the commander of the Paranormal Liberation Front, to liberate the heteromorph villains to their cause. "Tomura" manages to weakly tell Spinner to bring it all down, while he thinks about it doesn't matter what he thinks anymore, and he's only here for Tomura's sake.

Final War Arc
After seemingly fully recovered, Tomura is warped, along with the other villains, by All For One to Izuku's location so that they may finally nab One For All, only for all the heroes to be warped themselves onto the battlefield by Kurogiri's Warp Gate. As the battle begins, Tomura's about to touch the ground, but senses something strange. He calls out to Dabi to attack, who sarcastically tells his leader he isn't the boss of him. Before the fighting can escalate, metal cages from the "Troy" defense system suddenly rise up from the ground, and enclose around each villain individually, and while they only last several seconds before the villains bust out of them, it buys enough time for the heroes to successfully push them all into separate Warp Gates.

Tomura is warped to a now floating U.A. Fortress in the sky, and all alone except for Best Jeanist and the Heroes that followed him. After realizing he's in the sky, "Tomura" tells "himself" not to take over this time, decaying the ground to create a shockwave toward the Heroes. However, instead chunks of metal blast itself into the air, knocking Tomura into the electromagnetic barrier above, freezing him long enough for Best Jeanist to grab ahold of him with his carbon fibers, tossing him back onto the battlefield.

Best Jeanist explains that no matter how superhuman he may be, a strong enough current will cause his body to stiffen up momentarily, giving them just enough time to react. Breaking free from the fibers, Tomura realizes that the segment had sprung up the decayed ground into the air, causing it to disintegrate freely. Tomura mocks them by claiming sooner or later they're going to run out of terrain, but Jeanist casually comments they have plenty of material to spare, as new pieces start to emerge from the cracks, stating the arena was specifically designed to defeat him: a coffin in the sky.

Tomura attempts to try and attack them with a shockwave, only for Katsuki to mockingly remind him about what happened in Jaku. Realizing the Quirk isn't working, Tomura spots on the electricity generator Phantom Thief, accompanied by Eraser Head and Manual, using Erasure to erase his Quirks once again. Even despite the irritation of Eraser Head's interference, "Tomura" starts to sprout a monstrous blow of fingers from his left hand, sending the mass directly toward Mirko, mocking how much of a letdown Eraser Head turned out to be.

"Tomura"'s grotesque swarm of fingers continue to spread further and further throughout the arena, even destroying parts of the U.A. High building. With the Heroes confused at whether it's a Quirk or not, "Tomura" responds that it's simply just his "growth", just as is the case with his hair or nails, his body must adapt to his ever-evolving Quirks, the form leading to the next step of their superhuman society: Doctor Kyudai Garaki's Quirk Singularity. "Tomura" mocks the Heroes for sweeping everything under the rug and being ignorant to the inevitable future.

He continues to let his fingers expand endlessly, while the Heroes stand firm and declare their intention to beat him here and now, even without Deku and One For All, fearing stopping Erasure for even a few seconds would spell their immediate doom, allowing "Tomura" to execute Decay through every one of his fingers.

The battle persists as Tomura's endless wave of fingers rampage throughout the arena, destroying everything all the while taunting the Heroes for doing nothing but fleeing. Edgeshot uses his Pulp-Thread Throttle to destroy a chunk of fingers, only for more to grow in its place. He openly questions how this ability could not be a Quirk, as it should be impossible to be considered natural growth. Tomura simply responds that it's the result of the All For One Quirk settling into his body, as the various Quirk Factors combine and mold the body into its ideal form to handle it. He declares that with the body and its power, he will create a new world, either of his own or beyond him.

He continues that with the world already so split, all that awaits everyone is destruction, and all it does is give rise to incomprehension, lack of understanding, and rejection. He states that under his rule, all the exploited class will be equal, and asking if world peace isn't what the Heroes want. Katsuki responds back, saying that even though he doesn't know if he's currently Tomura or All For One, he has grown tired of hearing them talk endlessly ever since the Kamino Incident, before revealing his new item from the support course, the Strafe Panzer.

Using the armory he is able to unleash a wide range of Explosions all over the arena, destroying plenty of the fingers, and declaring they'll destroy the main body together. He proceeds to tell Tomura that he's already taken his words about "lack of understanding" to heart, so has no need for anything he's trying to say, using his Ultimate Move, Howitzer Impact: Cluster to ram right toward his body. The direct hit releases a ginormous Explosion that reverberates all around the Fortress.

Unfortunately, even despite the damage done, partially burning part of his face, Tomura recognized how Katsuki condensed his blasts to avoid widespread damage while boosting the sheer force, grabbing ahold of his right arm and crushing it. He continues to reiterate what he told him last time, that he has no more interest in him, unleashing another wave of fingers that Mirko, Best Jeanist, and Edgeshot attempt to stop. Tomura mocks them all, asking who thought it was smart to try and get up close, knocking Katsuki to the side and trouncing the three with his "All Might-level" power.

The exhausted Katsuki is forced to the ground by Tomura, who realizes that Izuku was supposed to be there as well,, expecting he'll arrive soon. Katsuki tries to resist and attack again, but is kicked up and grabbed by the throat, as Tomura says it's good his Quirks are erased since it means he'll leave a corpse behind, remembering back to how enraged Izuku became when he stabbed Katsuki during the Paranormal Liberation War, knowing it'll make a lovely present for him. As the endlessly growing fingers proceed to consume him, Tomura taunts Katsuki, telling him to face reality that even after all the time he has looked up to wanting to be like All Might, no matter how hard he tries, he'll always be in Izuku and One For All's shadow.

Nejire Chan then appears from behind, unleashing a Nejire Wave: Pike attack straight toward Tomura. He simply puts Katsuki in front of the attack, forcing Nejire Chan to alter the trajection last minute. With his back turned, Suneater stabs Tomura in the back with his Vast Hybrid: Octopus Mirage and Scorpius Toxin combo, injecting venom into the villain. However, Tomura simply grows a mouth that spits the toxin out, which is followed by even more mouths growing from the finger waves.

Tomura's taunts to the Heroes continue, telling them his body is constantly changing and adapting, and nothing will bring him down. In the chaos, Lemillion uses his Quirk to retrieve Katsuki, tossing him to Best Jeanist for safety. Tomura recognizes Lemillion from the battle in Jaku, who introduces himself as the hero in charge of messenger and bodyguard duty.

Lemillion asks Tomura why he breaks everything, which he responds is because the current systems have failed, leading Lemillion to reply back that he never had any friends, which suddenly puts him into shock. Lemillion continues that if he did have friends he'd know there's plenty worth keeping around, punching Tomura in the gut with his fist empowered by Nejire's Quirk.

Lemillion's words end up having an unexpected effect, as deep within Tomura's mind, "Tenko Shimura" reacts to the claim about not having friends, causing "Tomura" to hysterically yell out that Mikkun and Tomo like him, and that Mon always wants to go on walks with him, so he does have friends. The outburst baffles the two of them, causing Lemillion to apologize, before he's hit by another wave of fingers.

"Tomura" feels his mind splitting, that even though the body is complete and that he should be fully assimilated, he can still sense a component within that hasn't melded yet: not Tomura, nor All For One, but Tenko. Realizing he can't let everything drag out anymore, "Tomura" turns to confront Katsuki again, telling Lemillion he's not going to fight someone who's just trying to buy time. Best Jeanist prepares to protect Katsuki, while "Tomura" simply declares that they're struggling to remain conscious now, and that they ended up building their own tomb instead.

Nejire Chan and Lemillion both return to try and halt "Tomura", while Suneater prepares his Ultimate Move, the Vast Hybrid: Plasma Cannon, unleashing a massive plasma blast directly into "Tomura", who counters with his onslaught of fingers, followed by Lemillion giving giving him a hard punch to the face. Despite the immense power of the cannon, it is still not enough, as "Tomura" criticizes the Heroes for thinking that an attack like that could've killed All Might in his prime. He then turns to see Katsuki standing, who despite Best Jeanist's insistence, stands firm.

Blasting forward toward "Tomura" in an instant, Katsuki's able to quickly dodge and swerve around each of his attacks and predict his movements. "Tomura"'s movements start to get more hectic, wondering why he is getting pissed off and panicking so easily by an "extra" who doesn't possess One For All, suddenly seeing blurred visage of the Second User of One For All, telling Katsuki to die.

"Tomura" successfully punches Katsuki right in the chest, bursting his heart, despite the rest of the Heroes attempts to help and recover him. With the Heroes aghast at Katsuki's lifeless body, "Tomura" laughs that all he was doing was retracing their previous battle, that "they've" come prepared with the perfect Demon Lord body for the Final Boss, and that this is their story, the Villains' tale.

"Tomura" proceeds to taunt Eraser Head, telling him Katsuki's death is his fault for putting so much responsibility on his shoulders while standing on the sidelines, asking who of the remaining Heroes is next. Using his glob of fingers, "Tomura" grabs ahold of Mirko, asking who wants to be turned into Izuku's next welcome present, while she states that if she was just a little faster and killed him back during the War, none of this would happen. "Tomura" simply responds that there were a lot of Pro Heroes there as well, so she wasn't the only one who failed, and considering they were forced to resort to putting rookie kids on the front line to make up for many of their desertions, it only makes sense for some of them to die. He declares that despite them taking the initiative and hitting them with all they had, they didn't come with enough people or plans.

While Mirko and Lemillion attempt to keep Tomura busy, Edgeshot appears before Katsuki, preparing to use his Quirk to enter Katsuki and revive him from the inside. He calls out to Mirko to keep on fighting no matter what, while Tomura simply says there's no use. Nevertheless, Edgeshot enters Katsuki's body, causing Tomura to turn toward him and Best Jeanist, saying he already destroyed him. This causes him to remember his feelings on wanting to destroy everything, all to rid himself of his itch, and in a sudden shift of anger, pounces toward them reiterating his words.

Mirko busts in kicking Tomura in the face, with her right arm still attached to the wave of fingers. He asks if she's eager to die, but she just laughs in response, kicking him and freeing herself, even at the cost of her right arm, which is bitten off by the bodily mass. Tomura is confused by his sudden staggering, thinking about how he hasn't felt real damage with his body. However, he does state to himself that Katsuki's last attack stung more than he expected, initially believing he's taken too much damage, while also noting that it hasn't been that bad.

He then realizes what he's reacting to is Katsuki himself, and that his rage during his onslaught was because he felt a threat in him, unable to comprehend the thought of panicking because of an "extra" like him. Tomura tries to attack the charging Mirko but Lemillion appears to block his vision, as she states that people die when it's their time, and that she will make good on her promise to win. Declaring she doesn't want to regret anything when she dies, and sparking fear in Tomura's face, Mirko unleashes "Luna Rush", blasting forward right into him.

In recoil, Tomura thinks about all the Heroes still pushing themselves to win, even though he broke them, yet when he wasn't broken, there was no one there to lend a hand to him. Remembering the images of his family, "Tenko" begins to emerge from the hands, hair turning white and eyes becoming scarred, and while thinking about how nobody would even look at him, on the outside through Tomura's body mass, the visages of the Shimura Family begin to emerge.

Due to the Quirk Singularity, Tomura's body has been morphing into its optimal shape based on his mental state. His desire for destruction created the bloated mass of fingers that overwhelmed everyone, however since they were able to overcome that, and with Erasure still negating his Regeneration, the accumulated damage and the growing mental stress has gnawed away at him and unleashed his ideal form. Now, he stands with his entire body covered in fingers, with his left hand holding the five faces of the Shimura Family.

Mirko tries to retaliate, but he swiftly deals with her with one hard punch. He proceeds to quickly and viciously attack Suneater and Nejire Chan, with Lemillion desperately trying to protect them by blocking Tomura's vision. However, Tomura simply mocks him for how powerless he is, causing Lemillion to tremble in fear and rage. Best Jeanist runs forward to try and hold him down with his carbon fibres, with Lemillion once again trying to attack, but Tomura brushes it off like nothing and continues to resist Jeanist's fibres.

Tomura is about to unleash a hard blow toward Best Jeanist, when suddenly, Lemillion appears from below in front of him, mooning him with his butt. The situation stops Tomura in his tracks, confusing him, while also causing him to smirk at it. Unbeknownst to him, this was merely a distraction as just outside the now opened electromagnetic barrier, Deku has been hanging there, using Blackwhip to cling to the poles. The hero and villain's eyes meet, as he proceeds to slingshot directly into Tomura with a Smash.

"Tomura" is sent blasting backward by Deku's punch, realizing he's stronger than before, and noticing the glow around him being familiar, also recognizing it as "The Third's Quirk", just as he slams back into the electromagnetic barrier once it's closed back up. Deku turns to everyone to apologize for being late, only to be stunned into silence upon seeing Katsuki and everyone else's comatose bodies.

"Tomura" proceeds to mock him for his tardiness, figuring that Himiko had something to do with it, and asking if he has any excuses or reasons to run away from his responsibilities like everyone else. Deku starts to let his fear and rage overwhelm him, causing his Quirks to spiral out of control, with "Tomura" knowing that in this state of anger his movements will be predictable, meaning a well-placed counter-attack will easily finish him off. He begins to walk his way toward him, asking if he likes his "presents", when Lemillion reappears to Deku, attempting to talk some sense into him since everyone is still alive, including Katsuki.

"Tomura" claims it's all merely "empty talk" to avoid facing facts and reality, but Lemillion continues that as Heroes, they have to talk the talk in order to turn their ideals into reality. These words manage to calm Deku down, and now in control again, he turns to "Tomura", asking "All For One" if Tomura is still in there.

"Tomura" responds back that 'he' no longer exists; Tomura and All For One have fully merged into a new being, and supposedly due to him being older, "All For One" is currently in charge, saying that despite whatever he's scheming, he won't get his ideal ending. However, Lemillion responds back regarding the previous incident when he called him out for not having friends, which caused him to throw a fit like a child, knowing he isn't "fully merged". He continues the more he was provoked, the more unstable he became, which causes "Tomura" to irk in annoyance. Deku and Nana Shimura notice the faces of the Shimuras on his hand, realizing that he is still in there, causing "Tomura" to retaliate.

"Tomura" jumps into the air, shaking the entire Fortress with his strength, charging at Deku and angrily declaring he's taking back One For All. His smash erupts throughout the whole battlefield, but Deku is able to stop the attack, telling "All For One" he's the one who won't get his ideal ending. He uses a combination of Blackwhip and Fa Jin to create Blackchain, wrapping it around "Tomura's" arm and sending him flying. "Tomura" attempts to try and restle the chain off, not intending to fall for the same move again, only to be surprised when Deku undoes it himself.

That's when the villain notices Deku concentrating to himself, when suddenly, in the blink of an eye, Deku appears under "Tomura", blissfully punching him at such a great speed he can't comprehend, sending him flying upward. Completely caught off guard by the attack, "Tomura" realizes its strength and speed are different from the glow he was using before, figuring it is the Second's Quirk, Gearshift. Using his ability to shift and change the target's speed when touched, Deku enables Overdrive, turning his 100% into 120%, and unleashes a fully powered Detroit Smash directly into "Tomura's" stomach.

Recoiling in pain as he's sent crashing back down onto the battlefield, "Tomura" starts to see the vestiges of One For All around Deku, wondering how he can see them. Deku proceeds to use Gearshift's power to attack "Tomura" with a Detroit Smash: Quintuple, revving up all around the arena. "Tomura" notes that the attack wasn't as strong as the previous one, due to him not having his "built up glow", and despite being too fast to see, he figures he can predict his next attack based on the previous timing. However, he misses the swing, as Deku shifts into Low Gear at the last moment.

"Tomura" attempts to counter, but Deku uses his Danger Sense to detect and evade his attack, using Smokescreen to block his vision. He then uses Float to quickly rise into the air, restraining and reeling "Tomura" up with Blackwhip, preparing to combine the power stored up thanks to the Quintuple attack with Fa Jin, executing another blast of Overdrive with Gearshift, unleashing the full might of One For All.

The Second User states that their Meta Abilities were never what "All For One" should've been worried about, rather he should fear the reason why someone chooses to use their gifts; true power lies in an individual's intent, which is why people call them "Quirks". Deku declares that he's using all his power, telling "All For One" he won't let him hurt anyone else, and as "Tomura" attempts to scream out in defiance, he is pounded with Deku's ultimate smash, breaking many of his fingers apart.

As "Tomura's" body falls with a gaping hole in his chest, he laments over Deku not holding anything back and using all his Quirks, while he hasn't been able to use a single Quirk yet, unable to show the true power of his body all because of Eraser Head's Erasure, the U.A. Coffin, and all the Heroes' underhanded tricks. Just then, Tomura screams out as nine vestiges appear, showing that he is not yet finished.
