Izuku and the Heroes Embrace a Fresh Start
After Izuku Midoriya hit All For One with the finishing blow, My Hero Academia fans know that sooner or later, the final season will shift to the recovery of the heroes, as well as the restoration of society after such a devastating conflict.

On that note, My Hero Academia Season 8 Episode 9 will likely give fans a closer look at the heroes’ downtime, whether they are resting in the hospital, reflecting on recent battles, or joining the restoration efforts. All Might and Izuku need more time to recover, not to mention Katsuki Bakugo, who nearly died due to his life-threatening injuries, making the road to recovery both physically grueling and emotionally taxing.
The same is true for the other heroes, but fans know that things will get better eventually, and the upcoming events in My Hero Academia Season 8 Episode 9 will be completely different from the last episode.

In My Hero Academia, some humans have superpowers called quirks. Izuku Midoriya, nicknamed Deku, is not one of them. Deku has always idolized heroes like the number one hero, All Might, and since he was a child, he has always wanted to be a hero. However, his lack of a quirk has always held him back, but a chance encounter with All Might after discovering a classmate in danger sets Deku on the path to becoming a true hero. My Hero Academia centers around Deku and a class of heroes-in-training at UA. This school shapes young quirk users into future heroes through fake rescue missions, combat training, and other hero-tempering tasks. With young Deku inheriting the "One-For-All" quirk, he will learn what it means to be a true hero while facing off with dastardly supervillains.
