My Hero Academia Chapter 404, scheduled for release on Monday, October 23, 2023, has already had its spoilers leak online. Fans had been concerned about All Might's fate as All For One disrupted his plans with the use of Bloodcurdle. However, it was Bakugo who returned to the scene and, with the help of Deku, rescued All Might.
In the previous chapter, All For One thwarted All Might's attack and paralyzed him with Bloodcurdle. Despite the wishes of several individuals to aid All Might, all such attempts were swiftly shut down by All For One. Just as AFO was on the verge of taking All Might's life, Bakugo made a dramatic entrance from the U.A. island, appearing to be ready for another round of combat.

My Hero Academia Chapter 404: Spoilers and Summary
The chapter kicks off with a flashback to Nighteye's foresight of All Might's tragic demise while All For One cradles him in his arms. The narrative then shifts to various people around the world, each witnessing the epic battle and living their lives. A farmer has given up hope, while others cheer. A dog-boy named Martin expresses his desire for All Might's survival. The US weather reporter, Meryl, makes a reappearance, discussing her online video about the butterfly effect.
Meryl observes unusual air currents on her computer, and a narrator mentions "the wind blows strong," featuring leaves that have appeared in previous chapters. Bakugou takes flight towards Deku, and they hold hands, spinning through the air, reminiscent of Heroes Rising. The second user cautions Deku about the exhausting effects of using gear shift, but Deku deploys it on Bakugou. All Might's vestige continues to fade.
Deku propels Bakugou, but Shigaraki smiles confidently, stating that Bakugou won't reach All Might in time. Shigaraki is aware that the All Might vestige within One For All has vanished and a new, more human-like one has emerged, resembling the other users. The new vestige is revealed, and Shigaraki remarks, "The death of the man who brought dreams to this world will bring the real world back." However, the wind intensifies, and the narrator speaks of the people who prayed and cheered for All Might. It harks back to Nighteye's words about how everyone's "wishing energy" altered the future.
Just as a butterfly's wing flap in Brazil can trigger a hurricane in Texas, everyone's prayers... A stunning double spread showcases characters watching the battle and offering their prayers as Bakugou soars through the air. He recalls his guilt for ending All Might once but resolves to change that this time. Bakugou detonates All For One's arms and rescues All Might. The vestige returns to its previous fiery state, and All Might exclaims, "Young Bakugou…!" Bleeding from his nose and mouth, Bakugou shouts, "We'll win this!!!" This is where Chapter 404 concludes, and there will be no break next week.
