- —Tomura Shigaraki to All For One and Deku
Tomura Shigaraki (born Tenko Shimura) is the main antagonist of the My Hero Academia series. He appeared in the 194th episode of Death Battle, Shigaraki VS Mahito, where he fought against Mahito from the Jujutsu Kaisen series.
History
When Tenko Shimura was a young boy, he looked up to Heroes, even wanting to be one himself one day. His father, however, detested them and abused Tenko for looking up to them. After a particularly horrendous day, the hatred in his heart suddenly manifested his Quirk, Decay, one that would make anything he touched crumble into dust. In doing so, he accidentally murdered his entire family, save for his father, whom he gleefully attacked. Now orphaned and homeless, Tenko wandered the streets, hoping for someone to help him, but everyone simply ignored him because of his disturbing appearance. They all insisted a Hero would come and save him, but none ever did.
He would soon be found by the Villain, All For One, who was the only one who came to his aid. Taking advantage of Tenko's situation, All For One convinced him that the Hero society was at fault for all of it, adopting him and grooming him into his loyal protégé with a disgust for all heroes, especially the No. 1 Hero, All Might. Now reborn as "Tomura Shigaraki", he was appointed as the leader of the League of Villains, a dangerous group set on destroying the Hero society. However, what Shigaraki was unaware of was that All For One had secretly been behind every terrible thing in his life, all in hopes of using him as a vessel one day. Even now, he was still just someone who needed saving. The only one who could do so was his polar opposite, Izuku Midoriya, but Shigaraki is far from open to receiving help. So until then, he will save himself by destroying this world, which he saw as just as rotten as the house he grew up in.
