Summary
All Might can reach almost unimaginable speeds despite being injured, move extremely fast, and create afterimages. Deku's speed significantly improves during critical moments, allowing him to dodge bullets and create afterimages like All Might. Iida's powers allow him to surpass the speed of All Might's mentor, and he has always shown unparalleled speed and endurance.
My Hero Academy there are a number of heroes with incredible abilities, and moving at extremely high speeds is just one of the powers a Quirk can bestow. But which of the heroes of My Hero Academia is the fastest? With the lack of exact numbers, it's hard to say, but by comparing the feats of some of the fastest heroes, like Iida, All Might, and Deku, the answer can come to light.
The world of My Hero Academia does not have too many speedy superheroes, unlike Western superheroes. Tenya Iida, AKA Ingenium, is basically the only character of its kind and he has incredibly impressive speed. However, All Might was known for his ability to travel from city to city at incredible speeds during his heyday, and Deku has proven to be no slouch when it comes to using his powers. of One for All for quick acceleration.
So how can one best decide which of these three heroes is the fastest?
All Might can move at almost unimaginable speeds
All Might covers kilometers in seconds
While All Might in My Hero Academia is suffering from some serious injuries that prevent him from operating at peak performance, the prequel manga My Hero Academia Vigilantes proves that All Might is unbelievably fast when he has the strength to do so. Healthier (though still injured). In chapter 54, All Might goes from Might Tower to Naruhata in just a few seconds, covering several kilometers in that time frame. In chapter 123, All Might is shown to move so fast that it appears as if there are multiple All Mights running around due to afterimages.
Even in My Hero Academia, All Might is an extremely agile hero, despite his injuries. During the main manga's USJ event, All Might moves from the building's door to the villains and neutralizes them faster than you can blink. During the Hideout Raid, All Might was able to travel from his hideout to All for One's location in less than a minute, so fast that the villains had not finished teleporting before he arrived. All Might's innate skill in using One for All to enhance his body allows him to achieve truly incredible speeds.
Deku ran faster than a speeding bullet
Deku can reach incredible speeds with preparation time
For his part, Deku mostly moves at impressive speeds but doesn't really stand out at first glance. However, one of Deku's greatest achievements in speed occurred during the Dark Heroes arc. Witnessing Lady Nagant switch her target from herself to the unarmed Kai Chisaki (Overhaul), Deku attempts to combine the power of One for All at 45% with Fa Jin to move at lightning speed. level allows him to overcome Nagant's bullets, saving Chisaki's life. When Deku discovered this, he was able to dodge her subsequent blows, although he admitted this feat was one of All Might's most famous performances.
From this point on, Deku's speed is much greater, allowing him to move and dodge with relative ease. When using 100% of One for All's power with Eri's help, Deku was able to overcome Overhaul multiple times, allowing him to create afterimages like All Might did. One of Deku's greatest assets is his agility, allowing him to move around obstacles even at extremely high speeds. This is partly thanks to Danger Perception, which allows him to react faster than most because it alerts him in advance.
Tenya Iida's raw speed achievements are second to none
Iida's speed is unmatched when it comes to endurance
With motors attached to his legs, Tenya Iida's Quirk allows him to move at extremely fast speeds. Even in the relatively short time the story takes place, Iida has improved significantly, going through a radical process of replacing Iida's silencers with more powerful versions and enhancing his speed. him more. At one point Iida was said to be faster than Gran Torino, All Might's advisor, who could move from place to place at speeds faster than the naked eye could track.
With his ultimate Recipro Turbo, Iida can overcome his limit for up to 10 minutes, even faster than was possible before. Iida famously used this to catch up with Deku during the Dark Heroes arc, grabbing his friend's hand as he passed by to reassure him that he was not alone. In the manga, Iida even surpasses this with his “top speed,” firmly establishing himself as the fastest hero in the world. Using maximum speed, Iida can help Shoto Todoroki travel all the way from Kamino to Gunga (from Yokohama to Kyoto, over 430 km) in less than 10 minutes – more than twice the speed of sound.
Who is the fastest hero of My Hero Academia?
Circumstances can determine who is fastest
It's definitely a tough call to find out who is the fastest among these heroes. While All Might and Deku can reach extremely high top speeds, Deku at least cannot maintain these speeds for long periods of time. Deku also requires some preparation to reach its maximum speed, as Fa Jin requires repetitive movements to reach its full potential. In a race between the three characters, Iida will probably win due to his stamina, the nature of his Quirk, and its ability to function well on flat land. However, Iida lacks mobility, which is Deku's specialty and something All Might himself is quite proficient at.
In fact, All Might at his peak was possibly the fastest of the three., can launch himself forward with such force and precision that he can solve a problem in a matter of seconds. No villain has been able to resist All Might's strength and speed, with the exception of All for One, who has never actually shown any speed-enhancing Quirks. All Might's stamina (at least before being injured) is also extremely high, allowing him to move from one incident to the next at breakneck speed, even as he quickly disarms thugs. and make them helpless before the police.
Even though All Might might have the upper hand in a real-life situation, all three My Hero AcademyThe world's fastest heroes are capable of some truly crazy feats of speed that make them worthy of respect.
