While My Hero Academia’s villains can be deadly serious in their goals to destroy Hero Society and creating a world that is far more accommodating to them, the antagonist known as Twice can often be considered the comic relief in Shigaraki’s gang. With the anime adaptation’s latest episode, Twice has been given his most important moment in the series to date, so it should come as no surprise that the latest art from creator Kohei Horikoshi honors the duplicating villain.
In the build-up to season six, Hawks went undercover inside the Paranormal Liberation Front, giving the heroes an advantage in knowing the ins and outs of Shigaraki and Re-Destro’s forces across the board. During the number two hero’s time behind enemy lines, Hawks was able to forge an unlikely friendship with Twice, with the duplicating antagonist feeling beyond betrayed when the truth was revealed. With Hawks recognizing that Twice was perhaps the strongest member of the League of Villains, thanks to his ability to create tens of thousands of doppelgangers, the number two hero wasted little time in attempting to kill the villain, though his objective was waylaid thanks to Dabi arriving on the scene.

Creator Kohei Horikoshi took the opportunity to share new art of Twice, with the My Hero Academia villain appearing without his mask via this sketch which is something that you don’t see often thanks in part to the antagonist’s mania when it comes to keeping himself as a single being:
My Hero Academia said goodbye to Twice this episode, as Hawks was successful in delivering the killing blow to the duplicating antagonist. Before Twice passed from the mortal coil, he was able to have a touching moment with Toga, as the two villains had formed a strong bond between the two throughout the anime adaptation. While Twice might be deceased, Hawks has his hands full with Dabi as the fiery antagonist has burned most of his wings and is out for blood.
What do you think of this tragic new art from creator Kohei Horikoshi? What other heroes and villains do you think won’t make it out of the Paranormal Liberation War alive?
