My Hero Academia Shows Why Aizawa Could Take Down All Might

By Evan Valentine

Eraserhead has been teaching Class 1-A since the first season of My Hero Academia, with the Quirk erasing sensei becoming a major asset during the fight against the Paranormal Liberation Front as his power stops Shigaraki from accessing his full power. With the latest installment, the anime adaptation has proved that Aizawa has become a force to be reckoned with and would most likely, if it somehow came down to it, would be able to neutralize All Might in a one-on-one battle. 

All Might and Eraserhead grew up in two very different worlds, with the former routinely thought of as a great, friendly hero as he entered every battle and emergency with a smile, putting civilians at ease and earning him his title as the "Symbol of Peace". To All Might's Superman, Eraserhead was his Batman, acting as a vigilante for some time in his career, operating from the shadows and using his Quirk erasure powers for the benefit of Hero Society. While Aizawa doesn't have super strength or speed at his fingertips, his power and the skills he learned as a vigilante patrolling the city skyline make him a worthy opponent to any character, let alone All Might.

My Hero Eraserhead

One Twitter User highlighted the recent exceptionalism of Eraserhead from the latest episode of My Hero Academia, where the heroes all worked in tandem to fight against Shigaraki, with Aizawa having the most important role in stopping the new wielder of All For One from accessing his many powers:

Despite All Might's wild strength and speed, Aizawa is no slouch, and the Class 1-A teacher's agility, mastery of his "wraps", and most importantly, ability to stop All Might from accessing his full strength, would help him eke out a win. While Eraserhead might have the abilities to win this battle, the fight against Shigaraki is something else entirely, as the villain's body has been made on the same level as All Might's, meaning that Aizawa's Quirk only stops him from accessing his power of decay along with the other tricks that All For One has up its sleeve.

Do you think Aizawa would take down All Might in a one-on-one battle? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of UA Academy.
