My Hero Academia Ranks Its New Top Ten Heroes
My Hero Academia season 4 has had one big shadow hanging over the events of season 4: All Might's [...]
10. Dragon Hero Ryuku
Ryuko Tatsuma has a the ability to transform herself into a large Dragon. She dropped in the ranks (from no. 9 to no. 10), but likely only because some other heroes stepped up big time in events like the Battle of Kamino. Ryuko also mentors U.A. Students ( Nejire Hado, Ochaco Uraraka and Tsuyu Asui) as their Pro Hero work-study. She also didn't think she was worthy of her ranking, needing to do better.
9. Equipped Hero Yoroi Musha
This samurai-themed hero seems to be out-of-step with the times, and is not happy that he too dropped in rank this year.
8. Wash
This laundry-themed hero now stands at no. 8.
7. Kamui Woods
Shinji Nishiya, aka Kamui Woods, can make any wood object of his imagining protrude from his body. He's ninja-cool and has been showing at some of the big battles of the series, so far.
6. Crust
This shield hero was clearly emotional that All Might's career was cut short so soon.
5. Mirko
You may not know it yet, but there's very good reason rabbit-powered heroine Rumi Usagiyama has become one of the My Hero Academia fandom's most badass best girls.
4. Edgeshot
Shinya Kamihara is basically a ninja-themed Mr. Fantastic, able to stretch his limbs into incredibly thin, sharp strands. He leads a group called "The Lurkers," whose ranks include Kamui Woods and Mt. Lady.
3. Best Jeanist
Best Jeanist was seriously injured when he threw himself into the fray to battle All For One and the League of Villains during the Battle of Kamino. Despite his injuries, Best Jeanist is still honored as the No. 3 hero.
2. Hawks
Hawks definitely makes his presence felt, when making his debut as the No. 2 hero. He knocks down Edgeshot's noble proclamation about a hero's duty, even invoking the name of Stain. He then questions the entire rankings, saying that approval ratings should've been the criteria, which would've resulted in a much different ranking order. He even questions the entire point of pretending to go on with business as usual, with All Might now gone.
In the end though, Hawks proves to be more sly than he's arrogant persona, as he has a secret meeting with Endeavor to discuss the League of Villains' next plot.
1. Endeavor
The No. 1 hero is now Shoto Todoroki's father, Enji Todoroki, aka Endeavor. It's already clear that Endeavor's fiery personality (and dark family history) make him a very different sort of hoer than All Might was. During his first outing with Hawks, Endeavor tries to act like the kind of hero he thinks the public wants to see - only to have it go wrong. But the new no. 1 hero might get to prove himself in a different way, because the League of Villains' new crop of re-combined Nomu are already gunning for him!
