Is Midnight Dead in My Hero Academia? Answered
Sadly, Midnight does meet her end after losing contact with the other heroes in My Hero Academia. While her final struggle isn’t shown outside of some brief panels of her engaging in battle with a group of villains, it’s revealed in the aftermath of the Paranormal Liberation War arc that Midnight was found dead after her struggle to take on said villains. She is discovered by the members of 1A left on the outskirts of Jaku City, who she contacted and instructed to take down Gigantomachia. They’re all seen shedding tears at the loss of their teacher alongside the smashed remnants of her costume and her corpse, which seems to have been lifeless for some time. About the only upside is that her sacrifice seems to have been instrumental in allowing the 1A students to dose Gigantomachia with the tranquilizer medicine created by Yaoyorozu. If she hadn’t successfully held off the villains for as long as she could, they likely would have reached the students and interfered in their efforts, if not kill them outright.
Can Midnight Be Brought Back to Life? Explained
As for whether or not Midnight might be brought back to life at a later point in the series, all signs point to a firm no. While there are a plethora of MacGuffins for healing grievous injuries or getting Quirks back after they’re lost, My Hero Academia hasn’t really had any methods for characters to return from the dead. The closest thing it has shown is souls lingering via their Quirks, but that has been limited to the previous holders of One for All and the series’ villain All for One. As such, Midnight is pretty assuredly never coming back. It’s a sad truth, but one that gives her sacrifice for the greater good that much more weight. Hopefully this cleared up whether or not Midnight dies in My Hero Academia. For more on the series, check out any of the related articles down below.
