This article contains spoilers for My Hero Academia.

In the world of My Hero Academia, only one character can be considered to be the strongest Hero, and that's All Might. Known to be an especially powerful Hero with the One For All Quirk, All Might was the only one before Izuku Midoriya who managed to defeat All For One.

His power was immense, and thanks to it, he was renowned as the Symbol of Peace. That said, All Might wasn't the strongest forever. As fans know very well, All Might had to pass on the Quirk One For All to Izuku Midoriya, who was then destined to be the next strongest. But, surprisingly enough, there is a new Number 1 Hero in the series, and it's not Izuku Midoriya or Bakugo.

Bakugo and Deku's Hero Rankings At The End Of My Hero Academia

Bakugo Is The Number 5 Hero
Deku Is The Number 4 Hero

At the end of My Hero Academia, both Bakugo and Deku are clearly among the strongest. While Deku fought against Shigaraki, who was later taken over by All For One, Bakugo fought against All For One, and both of them did brilliantly in their respective battles. It goes without saying that at their peaks, they were the two strongest Heroes of the era, with Deku, undoubtedly, being the stronger of the two. Unfortunately, things changed drastically when Izuku Midoriya had to sacrifice the powers of the One For All, and this made him a lot weaker. Years later, Izuku was given an armor suit, which has now allowed him to be a Pro Hero once again. Currently, Izuku Midoriya holds the rank of the No. 4 Hero.

Meanwhile, Katsuki Bakugo is somewhat different. Unlike Izuku, Bakugo never lost his power. However, in his case, his bad behavior ended up becoming one of the major reasons for why he never truly became the Number 1. Bakugo debuted at the No. 4 Rank, and he later went down to No. 15, before rising back to No. 5.

Mirio Togata Is The New Number 1 Hero

Mirio Is Among The Strongest In The World

Neither Deku nor Bakugo is the Number 1 Hero in the world, and the man who holds this position is none other than Lemillion, also known as Mirio Togata. This shouldn't come as a big surprise to the fans, given that Mirio was the man closest to All Might even when he was still a student. His powers are absolutely immense, and hardly anyone can match up to him.

Mt. Lady Is Ahead Of Both Izuku And Bakugo

Surprisingly enough, it seems that Mt. Lady has also gotten a lot stronger. Currently, she holds the Number 3 rank. At the same time, there is also Shoto Todoroki, who is currently the Number 2 Hero.

Clearly, Deku and Bakugo are nowhere near the top, and Mirio reigns supreme for the foreseeable future. That said, fans know that rankings don't necessarily relate to strength, and Deku and Bakugo are still up there with the strongest.
