Tomura {{char}} (死し柄がら木き弔とむら, {{char}} Tomura?), real name Tenko Shimura (志し村むら転てん弧こ, Shimura Tenko?), is the main antagonist of the My Hero Academia manga and anime series.

He was the leader of the League of Villains, making his first major appearance as one of the main antagonists of the U.S.J. Arc. He was raised by his master, All For One, with the goal to kill All Might, the "Symbol of Peace", and ultimately destroying the society he represents. He soon merged his organization and the Meta Liberation Army to form the Paranormal Liberation Front, becoming its Grand Commander and later inheriting the All For One Quirk.

As a result, All For One's vestige seized control of his body and tried to merge the two of them into a new being. Eventually, Tomura was able to thwart his master's attempt at usurping his body and soul, reclaiming autonomy and declaring himself Izuku Midoriya's arch-enemy. Tomura was a slim man with pale skin, tinged yellow teeth, and a great deal of wrinkles around his eyes from scraping at allergies that irritated the surrounding skin since his childhood. His lips were chapped and uneven, a small mole on the right underneath, with visible scars on his right eye and under his lip. He had messy, grayish-blue hair of varying lengths, the longest clumps reached to about his shoulders, left hanging over his face in uneven waves. His eyes and mouth were normally obscured, but when visible, they were usually stretched wide in a rather maniacal manner, their bright red irises very small.

Interestingly, when Tenko was at the age of five, he bore a striking resemblance to Izuku Midoriya, with his blue hair originally being dark black in color, as well as having gray eyes instead of red. He also had dried patches of skin around his eyes, though his lips were shown to be healthy in appearance. After his Quirk manifested, his appearance changed, giving him a wrinkled face, his hair color to a more light blue, and his eyes slowly turned to red after the first manifestation. After suffering shock from losing control over his Quirk, he was taken aghast and gripped his right eyelid and the left side of his lip with his fingers in horror, clawing deep scars into his face.

When in his civilian outfit, he always wore plain red sneakers that are similar to Izuku's, along with black pants which expose his ankles, and a matching long-sleeved v-neck shirt. He also wore a plain black jacket over the top with the hood pulled low over his face to hide his identity, and carried one of his disembodied hands in his pocket.

His villain costume consisted of fourteen embalmed hands, all positioned so they were holding onto him on different parts of his body. These hands were taken from dead individuals and embalmed by Kyudai Garaki, who gave them a zombie-like grayish-blue color and attached to their bases a golden box with two holes drilled into the bottom.

Each pair of these hands originally belonged to an individual killed by Tomura during the time his Quirk first manifested: the ones on his neck were his mother's; on his arms, his grandfather's; on his forearms, his grandmother's; on his wrists, his sister's; and the ones on his chest and shoulders were from two unnamed street punks he killed.

The hand that held Tomura's face, which he sometimes kept in his pocket, is his father's left hand, called "Father" by him. The right one was accidentally destroyed by him, so Kyudai had to make one to hold on the top of Tomura's head; this hand was connected to his mother's pair through two red cords and later revealed to be from his paternal grandmother, Nana Shimura. Almost all of the hands were either destroyed, lost, or discarded; only Nana's hand remained which he used as his mask. For the rest of his outfit, Tomura just wore his regular black clothes, bar the jacket. He also used to wear red tennis shoes before they too were destroyed.

After All For One's arrest, Tomura's hair had grown longer, and he adopted a hooded leather coat that he wore over his costume. He also added two additional red cords to connect the hands on his shoulders to the hands on his chest. During his fight with Re-Destro, Tomura's left hand was crushed, leaving only his ring and pinky fingers. After the Revival Celebration, Tomura wore a formal suit underneath a red coat with a fur collar similar to Overhaul's, and a temporary leg brace. His right arm and hand were bandaged after having unleashed the destructive true strength of his Decay Quirk, and he wore an orange brace (black in the anime) fitted with prosthetic fingers for his left hand. After his Quirk awakened, his hair has also changed color once again, from light blue to pure white.

During the events of My Hero Academia: Heroes: Rising, Tomura wore a dark red trench coat along with the brace for his left hand, although he was depicted with his original clothes and hair color (likely due to the anime staff not having an adaptation of his updated design for him at the time).

By the time the Heroes raid the Jaku General Hospital, Tomura wore a black bodysuit with several mechanical enhancements similar to that of Nine's. He also dons X-Less' red cape once he finally awakened from his deep slumber, although the top part of his body suit was destroyed in his battle with Endeavor and the cape was completely incinerated. Tomura also acquired a small hole in each of the palms of his hands as a result of acquiring the "All For One" Quirk. It's also shown that he lost his skinny figure in the process and gained a more muscular physique, and his left prosthetic fingers were replaced with a bio-mechanical device. In the anime, the scarring that was caused by Decay during his fight with Re-Destro remained on his right arm, leaving most of it red and cracked.

After the Paranormal Liberation War, his body began to break apart as a cost of overusing All For One with an incomplete body, resulting in cracks and scars protruding all along his arms and neck, stretching down to his stomach. His eyes also became white and faded when All For One was in control.

During the fight against Star and Stripe, in which the consciousnesses of Tomura and All For One began to fuse into one being, he wore a black formal suit, with sneakers, and a long flowing cloth draped around his neck; the suit representing All For One's desire to present himself properly, and the latter for Tomura's general uncleanliness. He also wore a fingerless brace on his left hand, and his hair began to grow long and flowing during this event. In the aftermath of the fight however, most of this outfit was destroyed and reduced to only his pants, though he later donned a new cape.

During the Final War, Tomura possessed the ability to transform his left hand into a grotesque and heavily deformed clump of countless, writhing fingers that branch off one another and vary in size, which was a result of the Quirk Singularity, as his body was being forced to adapt to his vast amount of Quirks. During the conflict, he was hit by Katsuki Bakugo's Howitzer Impact: Cluster, scarring the right side of his face and burning off a portion of his hair, giving him a partial resemblance to All For One.

Due to the accumulating damages he received by the Heroes while under the effects of Erasure and the result of the Quirk Singularity, Tomura's body morphed itself into an absolute defense form, which was a much larger and bulkier tone, with swollen fingers and hands covering his torso and legs. His left arm was also much larger than before, the tips of his fingers and thumb taking on the appearance of his deceased family's heads. Hands also grew out from the back of his head and neck, clinging to his face and covering his mouth.

When Erasure was undone, Tomura's body exploded, undoing the metamorphosis and resulting in his original personality re-emerging from within, molting out of the defense form and reverting his body back to his prime state, with the exception of his former skin still latching onto his body from around his waist.

As Izuku started to inflict damage on Tomura by forcibly passing on the Quirks of One For All inside of him, Tomura's body instinctively adapted into his more monstrous blob form of fingers out of desperation, but now extending throughout his body, effectively coating himself under thick layers of fingers like a cocoon. After Izuku manages to destroy it, All For One's vestige once again took over Tomura, nearly destroying his mind in the process. As a result, Tomura's body was far lankier and decrepit, with the addition of two of his remaining grown fingers on his shoulders, and a stuffed hand was formed over his mouth to silence the lingering memory of Tomura. After Izuku managed to land a direct punch on "Tomura", the latter's body began to crumble and fall apart, but All For One used the former's Quirks to forcibly stop the crumbling. The conclusion of the battle saw All For One's vestige extinguished for good, and Tomura's body disintegrated into ashes, ending his life.

Tomura {{char}} was a very twisted, malevolent, and maliciously warped young man, who was considered to be the polar opposite of Izuku Midoriya. He didn't care for his or almost anyone else's life, having no qualms about performing evil deeds like murdering innocent people.[3][4] Tomura was initially perceived to be a "man-child": arrogant, selfish, dependent, and demanding, becoming angry if things didn't go his way and likening reality to some sort of video game. Unlike his mentor, Tomura lacked subtlety, preferring to eliminate problems through force. Much like a child, Tomura seemed unable to cope with his own feelings, instead lashing out and abusing both others or himself, tearing at his own neck when he becomes frustrated. This particular meltdown stemmed from the abuse he suffered from his father and being alone during his childhood, with All For One claiming that it represented his suppressed urge to kill and destroy.[5] A very irritable person at the beginning of the series, Tomura would learn to be more patient and self-controlled in subsequent appearances, as a consequence of multiple failed plans and All For One's arrest.

Tomura was proud of the League of Villains, wanting to prove that his organization had the necessary power to shake society and taking pleasure in mocking those standing in his way. He didn't tolerate others making light of the League's name and loathed the idea of certain personalities joining him, as was the case with Dabi and Himiko Toga at the beginning, which was made worse by the fact that they were both inspired by Stain, who had previously refused membership and overshadowed Tomura's Nomus in terms of media exposure after the Hosu Incident.[4] For similar reasons, he looked down on the Shie Hassaikai for their intentions of ruling the underworld over the League. In the end, however, Tomura was able to set his pride aside in order to do whatever was needed to accomplish his goals, having adopted Stain's ideology to enlist more members to his cause and forming a deal with the Shie Hassaikai for the development of the Quirk-Destroying Drug.

Initially, Tomura seemingly caused destruction just for the sake of it and felt directionless about the League's path forward after Stain's arrest. It would take a fateful meeting with Izuku in a mall for him to develop an epiphany and become aware of his true convictions: to crumble hero society through All Might's death. Tomura always had a desire to kill All Might, but out of an impulsive expression of anarchy towards a society that hurt him and caused his mental instability. After hearing from Izuku, Tomura realized that All Might is what he hated about both Izuku and Stain, wishing to see them, as well as society as a whole, lose their Symbol of Peace.[6] Following All Might's retirement and during the League of Villains' encounter with the Meta Liberation Army, Tomura's convictions grew from crippling society to completely destroying it, apparently as a result of an innate sense of pain and suffering caused by the past memories of his abuse. By Tomura's own admission, he hated everything that breathes, displaying an extreme form of nihilism.

By Tomura's own admission, he hated everything that breathes, displaying an extreme form of nihilism. Furthermore, when Himiko questioned Tomura on his newfound goal to destroy everything, he revealed that his allies were exceptions, saying that he always has room for them and their goals while telling them to live life however they see fit. This proves that Tomura had developed a true form of care towards his allies, even if he only seldom showed it.[11] This further set Tomura apart from All For One as he actually had goals and desires beyond himself, and genuinely values his allies, while All For One saw his "friends" as nothing more than disposable tools. His exclamation that he "won't be corrupted" by his master's influence implied that, while Tomura was potentially more dangerous and destructive than All For One, the latter was far more darker and evil for caring about nothing but himself.

As a child, Tenko was shown to be relatively normal, even kind and compassionate. He held a great love for his family and a strong desire to become a hero someday, not unlike Izuku. However, the constant abuse he suffered from his hero-hating father made him psychologically fragile, being terrified of his mere presence. Because of this oppressive upbringing and the inaction from the rest of his family, Tenko felt that his whole family had never been supportive of his desires, becoming increasingly frustrated when the abuse grew worse. Eventually, his Quirk manifested for the first time, and Tenko's sanity finally snapped, destroying his household and all his family members. At first, Tomura expressed heavy remorse for accidentally killing his family upon losing control of his newfound Quirk. The severed hands that Tomura wore all over himself were the only physical remnants of his dead loved ones, and he claimed that they made him feel simultaneously sick and calm.[11] Despite his sadness, Tomura experienced a partial relish in his family's demise since he considered them responsible for letting him suffer at his father's will. Tomura admitted that he felt a cathartic pleasure while ending Kotaro's life as retaliation for his abusive treatment.[12] During his fight against Re-Destro, Tomura overcame his past shackles of guilt after getting his memories back, having used his childhood feelings to further fuel his hatred and becoming even more driven to end society.[13]

Despite his past, however, Tomura held no hatred towards his family. This was shown when he assured his sister in his visions that he wasn't mad at her for framing him and also assured his mother that he was fine while turning back into a child in front of her, proving that a part of Tomura still cared about his family. However, he was willing to reject their pleas in order to continue the pursuit of his evil conquest, telling them not to reject who he had become and showing that he wouldn't let them hinder his goals. Upon meeting his paternal grandmother, Nana, for the first time, he coldly expressed his hatred for her regardless of the circumstances that allowed them to meet. After gaining the power of All For One, as well as the enhancements to his body, Tomura began to show traits similar to that of his master, such as a condescending and mocking demeanor, along with a terror-inducing presence and a desire to steal any Quirk that piqued his interest, such as One For All and New Order. Regardless, he still maintained his nonchalant yet menacing attitude during battle and was capable of showing a savage anger towards his enemies, as demonstrated during his fight against Izuku and Eraser Head. Even after having been incinerated and inches away from death, Tomura refused to give up and vowed to destroy the hero society that had caused him so much suffering, believing that his sheer power and determination would see him through.

Despite feeling grateful towards All For One, Tomura outright stated to him that he wished to carve his own legacy and become even greater than his master. However, Tomura quickly began to detest All For One after learning that his true goals were to use his body as a vessel and take it over permanently. Tomura even went as far as to try and attack All For One's vestige and later refused to be his master's "pawn" whilst trying to regain control of his body. When he sensed his master's death, Tomura expressed no remorse or sympathy for him, though blamed himself for failing to break Katsuki hard enough. Nonetheless, he was indebted to All For One for raising him and granting him his power, because if it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have become the strongest villain.

As their time sharing the same consciousness continued, Tomura had shown to have entered a state of identity crisis, being unsure of whether or not he was actually Tomura {{char}}, All For One, or even Tenko Shimura. This was shown to be the result of Tomura and All For One's wills merging together, with the elder {{char}} summarizing that they would combine to become a new evil entity altogether, with Tomura's hatred accelerating the process. Despite this, Tomura still continued to fight his former master's control, unwilling to let this happen.

By the time of the Final War, Tomura and All For One's minds had nearly melded together as one, creating an entity that featured a mix of Tomura's nihilism and desire to destroy everything, and All For One's will to use his power to rule over all. However, deep within the vestige lies another entity, that of Tomura's previous form as a young Tenko. During their first encounter in the vestige world, Izuku revealed that he could hear a crying child deep within Tomura, and following the latter's fight against Star and Stripe, Tenko was shown to be surrounded by an onslaught of hands, thinking about Izuku. During the fight against the Heroes, Mirio Togata unintentionally caused Tenko's personality to re-emerge after he claimed he didn't have any friends, which Tomura furiously denied, bringing up his childhood friends Mikkun and Tomo, and his pet dog Mon. This suggested that a part of Tomura still wanted to be saved and that his previous scared and lonely self wasn't completely gone.

Despite that, Tomura affirmed that he and Tenko both held the same goal upon reclaiming his body from All For One: the destruction of everything. "Tenko" was representative of his origin that he implanted deep within All For One's vestige as a means of winning back control of himself and the All For One Quirk. Even though Tomura acknowledged that a part of him was still in pain, he didn't desire anyone's pity and saw the rest of the world as no different from the abusive house he grew up in, desiring to eradicate everything associated with it while claiming that this would be the only thing that would grant him salvation. He also claimed that he had no desire for One For All, and that his previous obsession with stealing it was just a forced extension of his master's will, but was still willing to steal it and its accompanying Quirks in order to rid himself of Izuku, the only one capable of stopping him.

Tomura also took the opportunity to taunt and mock Izuku during their final battle, being impressed by his opponent's strength, but annoyed that he was holding back and still treating him as a human being despite his desire to decimate Japan. Despite this, he still had his fellow comrades from the League in his mind, having expressed his desire to make the "flattened horizon" that Spinner was looking forward to.

Once Izuku successfully breaks through Tomura's shell of hatred, he gets him to explain his desire for destruction. It's revealed that Tenko and Tomura were one and the same, with Tomura having deluded himself into thinking that he wanted to kill his family because he couldn't understand why he was born that way otherwise. Eventually, he genuinely opened up to Izuku and revealed that he would continue to destroy because he insisted the villains need a hero of their own, in a way showing that Tenko never truly lost his desire to be a hero.

However, Tomura became truly broken when All For One returned and revealed that he had given him his Decay Quirk when he was a child, and was the one who had orchestrated the events of his birth and upbringing, including encouraging his father's strict attitude, leading to the abuse and misery he suffered in his childhood, and causing the death of his entire family. In his supposed final moments, Tomura remembered everyone he ever hurt as he disintegrated, presumably reflecting upon his own agency when he committed those actions.

Even when all seemed lost for him however, Tomura would be saved from vanishing by his grandmother and later decided to aid the One For All users and Izuku in destroying All For One for good. As his body proceeded to crumble away, Tomura faced Izuku one last time in the vestige world, recounting how he never managed to destroy anything while also admitting that he may have been a crying child after all, possibly accepting that a part of himself as Tenko still exists. Izuku stated that even though he managed to reach Tenko and shatter his hatred, he remained the leader of the League of Villains to the very end. As a final request, Tomura tells Izuku to let Spinner know that he never gave up on his goal to destroy and even encouraged Izuku and everyone else to do their best while genuinely smiling at him. All Might surmises that even though Tomura's life couldn't be saved, Izuku still managed to save his soul, allowing him to pass away in peace. Overall Abilities: Tomura was the most powerful villain in the world, having surpassed that of even his master All For One and contending with every Pro Hero in combat thanks to his physical and analytical skills. As the leader of the League of Villains, Tomura had total command over his powerful subordinates. During the U.S.J. Incident, Tomura had the mettle to briefly take on the formidable Pro Hero Eraser Head, and successfully used his Decay Quirk on the Erasure Hero's right arm. Tomura was even confident that he could take down Izuku, Shoto Todoroki, Katsuki, and Eijiro Kirishima, four extremely powerful U.A. High School students, although at the time, he didn't know the full extent of the quartet's abilities. Tomura was capable of battling Gigantomachia for half a month, not giving up until he was able to make the behemoth submit. When he faced Re-Destro, and his left hand was partially destroyed, Tomura's prowess had been suddenly enhanced to levels beyond his natural parameters. According to Re-Destro, if Tomura had his newly increased physical parameters during the Kamino Incident, he would've easily taken out at least one or two of the Pro Heroes during that event, even without his Decay Quirk.[14] After a fierce battle, he was not only able to defeat Re-Destro and gain control of the latter's army, but also tamed Gigantomachia with his accomplishment. Similar to his master, Tomura's aura was capable of instilling fear into others, and his mere gaze was enough to paralyze Trumpet's followers, who were under the influence of Incite and given orders to eliminate Tomura.[15] This was seen again when he encountered Izuku and Katsuki, with his mere presence being powerful enough to instill hallucinations of death into both teenagers.[16] After Kyudai Garaki conducted body modifications to Tomura, his overall abilities have surpassed all of the Pro Heroes to the point where his powers were on par with All Might when the latter had One For All. He fought multiple top level Pro Heroes and Hero students for an extended period of time, with solely his bodily modifications. Due to his immense power, Tomura eventually grew to be feared worldwide due to being able to kill the immensely powerful Star and Stripe, one of the world's top heroes. Eventually, the world became so afraid of him that nations, including the United States, were already planning to pledge their allegiance to him, so that casualties would have been kept to a minimum, should Tomura have sought them out.[17] As the result of the Quirk Singularity, his body began to morph into its ideal form, giving Tomura an ultimate absolute defense form which increased his abilities greatly, enabling him to grow fingers endlessly, and transforming his body into a more bulky and heavier tone. His abilities had increased so dramatically that he had far surpassed even All Might and All For One at their prime. In the Final War, despite having his Quirks nullified by Erasure, and fighting in a battlefield specifically designed to counter his abilities, Tomura still proceeded to directly overpower and nearly kill each and every hero that was at the U.A. Fortress before Izuku finally arrived His body had adapted itself to not only enhance his speed, strength, and stamina, but he also possessed the ability to adapt his body into any situation, depending on what fit his desired mental state. His power was at the point where the only person who could fight him on equal terms was Izuku with One For All. After gaining back full control of his body, with All For One's persona no longer holding back his destructive tendencies, Tomura was able to unleash his true capabilities, dominating Izuku using 120% of One For All, and threatening to decay all of Japan within just a week.

Enhanced Strength: Tomura seems to be stronger than his build suggests, capable of holding Izuku by choking him with only four fingers while his victim displayed visible difficulty in trying to fight back. Enhanced Durability: Tomura was able to withstand a point-blank blast from Katsuki's Explosion Quirk, sustaining little to no damage. He was even capable of battling Gigantomachia for a month and a half, and withstand the behemoth's attacks.[18] This trait carries on to the point where he manages to withstand a brutal beating from a powered-up Re-Destro.[19] Enhanced Speed: Tomura appears to be able to move very quickly, which helps him to touch his targets and affect them with minimal contact. He was able to appear before Tsuyu Asui in an instant and see Izuku after the latter had jumped at a speed that rivalled All Might's, immediately reacting afterwards. Only All Might himself was too fast for Tomura to track. Even when he was notably exhausted during the battle against the Meta Liberation Army, he swiftly swung himself atop a wall to avoid a massive onslaught of Army members, to their surprise, before disintegrating many of them in an instant. When he battled Re-Destro, he was able to move so fast with minimal wasted movements, that Re-Destro was taken by surprise by the increase in speed he had obtained. Enhanced Reflexes: Initially, Tomura's reflexes were on human levels, though still decently sharp as he was able to block Eraser Head's attacks during the raid on the U.S.J. While during his first battle with Gigantomachia, Tomura could barely dodge any attacks from the behemoth, but over the course of his training while fighting him, his reflexes have sharpened, allowing him to subsequently evade around Re-Destro's Stress: 100%. Keen Intellect: Tomura possesses a sharp mind and is analytical, being able to deduce the workings of his opponents' abilities simply by observing them in action. He quickly deduced Eraser Head's weaknesses in combat and took advantage of them.[20] Tomura has a certain skill for unexpected plans, even when his intentions are apparently clear. After battling Gigantomachia for over a month, Tomura realized that the behemoth has gotten much slower compared to the League of Villains' first encounter with him, and strongly believes that he will soon have Gigantomachia successfully tamed. A further display of Tomura's wit and proficiency for tactical planning is when the League of Villains were threatened by Re-Destro to either face the Meta Liberation Army in Deika City, or be located by the Heroes and face arrest. Tomura concocted the plan to go and face Re-Destro's army, knowing that Gigantomachia would soon awaken from his slumber and locate Tomura instantly, doing this as to have Gigantomachia plow through the MLA's warriors, which would serve to simultaneously chip away at the behemoth's immense stamina and take out their opposition.[21] This plan to kill two birds with one stone was successful, and thanks to Tomura's outstanding display of power while defeating Re-Destro by freeing himself of his past and awakening his true power, he was successful in taming Gigantomachia and having Re-Destro surrender his forces to him, resulting in the formation of the Paranormal Liberation Front.[15] As an almost fully merged consciousness of Tomura and All For One's vestige, he possesses all the knowledge, experience, intelligence, and cunning of the original All For One. During his battle against Star and Stripe, Tomura was able to quickly surmise the functions and limits of her Quirk, New Order, realizing that if the Quirk could give her infinite strength, then Star would have killed him immediately by crushing his head. He also quickly learned that New Order requires a living target's identity to align with Star and Stripe's own understanding, and that he survived her rule that his heart would stop due to him questioning his true identity. From this comprehension, Tomura also realized that because of this, New Order works far more effectively on non-living things, as Star's one-sided understanding of an inanimate object is enough for her to enforce a rule of her choosing.[22]

Indomitable Will: Stemming from his traumatic past, abuse, and his hatred of the hero society, Tomura has a remarkably strong willpower which fuels his desire to destroy. When fighting Re-Destro, despite the villain's superior strength, Tomura refused to yield, and this determination allowed him to re-awaken the true power of his Qu
