"My Hero Academia" Chapter 290 Recap

The chapter, titled "Dabi’s Dance," opens with the hospital staff running toward Rei’s room to shut the TV before she could witness the carnage unfolding in the city.

However, the TV is hacked and the screen shows Dabi addressing the world. Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Gigantomachia arrives with the League of Villains. Shigaraki is in a terrible state after fighting the heroes.

Shoto is aware the heroes cannot handle both Gigantomachia and Shigaraki. He decides to take down Shigaraki since he is already in bad shape.

Shoto and other heroes get ready to attack Shigaraki, but Gigantomachia’s timely intervention saves the villain from the attack.

Endeavor regrets he failed to defeat Gigantomachia, and vows to find the giant’s weakness and strike back. However, one of Endeavor’s lungs is shot and every breath he takes is agony. "My Hero Academia" Chapter 290 shows the League of Villains climbing down from Gigantomachia’s back.

Endeavor is shocked to see Dabi on the giant’s back. Meanwhile, Dabi announces he is Toya Todoraki, the eldest son of Endeavor. He goes on to reveal his crimes and how he killed over 30 innocent people in cold blood.

During "My Hero Academia" Chapter 290, Dabi shares his origin story. He reveals how Endeavor was once a power-hungry man and when All Might surpassed him to claim the number one spot on the Hero ranking chart, Endeavor lost all hope.

Later, in order to create even stronger Quirks, Endeavor created Dabi, but the latter was a failed creation. Dabi claims Endeavor rejected him. However, Dabi survived and joined the League of Villains. Now, all he can think about is how to crush Endeavor and make him suffer. The chapter concludes with Endeavor and Shoto facing one of their own.

"My Hero Academia" Chapter 291 will be out Sunday. Fans can read the chapter online on Viz and Manga Plus.
