Warning: Spoilers for My Hero Academia Chapter #427

As the epilogue of My Hero Academia's manga continues to show the war's aftermath and how the world will change from now on, the author, Kohei Horikoshi, is giving closure to the heroes and villains of the series, revealing how he sowed the seeds through the story to connect the characters journeys to a satisfying outcome. My Hero Academia's newest chapter revealed how, in the case of the villain Shuichi Iguchi, better known as Spinner, the manga foreshadowed his ending long ago.

Spinner is one of the surviving members of the former League of Villains, and in his emotional conversation with Izuku, he admits that Shigaraki was his hero and first friend. Spinner finds his purpose in spreading Shigaraki's tale by writing a book about him and the League of Villains, so the world will never forget them, and Izuku tells him that he should write a comic book instead.

This subtle comment reveals that My Hero Academia's manga had already teased this development for Spinner, foreshadowing it more than 200 hundred chapters ago in My Villain Academia Arc.

Izuku suggesting to Spinner that he should write a comic book about Shigaraki and the League of Villains is not just a thoughtless comment. This statement shows that the manga foreshadowed that Spinner fulfilled his goal of spreading the tale of the LoV, since My Villain Academia’s Arc is narrated by him. During the arc, Spinner describes the events in first person and refers to the league's actions as their 'tale' just as he said he would write, which proves that My Villain Academia is a comic written by him.

This not only explains why the arc focuses exclusively on the League of Villains but also the way it’s presented. My Hero Academia is a story narrated in retrospective by Izuku about he and his friends became the greatest heroes, but since Spinner declares that Shigaraki was his hero, this proves that there are different types of them, whose stories also deserve to be told. However, Izuku was not the right person to share Shigaraki's story; his friend and comrade Spinner was, someone who came to care about him and understand him better.

My Villain Academia, written by Spinner, gave the League of Villains the backstory they needed without redeeming them. It wasn't meant to change the villain's personalities, but to show them and give others a better understanding of who they were and their circumstances.

This was Spinner's purpose, meaning he will get to share their story with the world, showing that villains are more than what they seem on the outside. This reinforces My Hero Academia's message that everyone in need deserves help, which could avoid tragedies like what happened with Shigaraki.
