The dust of the final battle settles, revealing a shattered landscape. Tenko Shimura lies unconscious amidst the ruins, his decayed form still and fragile. Nearby, Izuku Midoriya rests, his arms restored by Eri’s power, breathing heavily as the adrenaline fades. Aizawa stands guard, radio crackling with reports of the war’s end. The air is thick with silence and the weight of lost years. Tenko’s eyes remain closed, his face pale and vulnerable, stripped of the villainous mask. The camera pans over the crumbled fingers that once held destruction, now inert. A single drop of rain falls on his cheek. The war is over, but the trauma lingers in the quiet aftermath.
