My Hero Academia Chapter 396 Spoilers

The chapter begins 20 minutes before the clones vanish, and All Might reminisce about Nighteye's foresight, suspecting that the villain mentioned refers to All For One. He realizes that Nighteye's prophecy might still come true in this fight. In preparation, his car, Hercules, transforms into armor, covering his entire body except for his mouth. This new form is called Armored All Might, replicating his hero costume, complete with the antennae hairs and cape. He instructs Hercules to record the fight, and it reveals that the battle has already begun.

Tsukauchi expresses concern, and La Brava, looking for views, wants to live stream the fight but faces opposition. When she uses a dramatic phrase to start the stream, the cops tease her, likening it to pretending to use a Bankai (a reference to the power system in the anime Bleach). Tsukauchi recalls All Might's determination to join the fight and wonders if this is where he will meet his end, acknowledging the immense challenge of facing AFO without a quirk, regardless of support items.

Seeing All Might's smile, All For One loses control and engages. All Might activates his armor's shield to protect himself from AFO's electric beam, causing some destruction. AFO's arm gets damaged, but he quickly heals. All Might employs his quirk, Black Whip, using wires from the armor's arms.

Then, he unleashes Chargebolt, releasing lightning to slow down AFO's regeneration. He maneuvers closer using a technique called Cellophane. All Might reflects on AFO's past fighting style, focused on weakening enemies and stealing Quirks. However, this approach only works against Quirk users, which is not the case for All Might.

A new part of Hercules attaches to All Might's leg, propelling him into action. La Brava mocks Tsukauchi's previous words, but he is left speechless. All Might reveals that his armor and car were designed by a friend he made in the US after leaving Japan due to Nana's death, along with his friend's daughter, Melissa, who is watching the battle on TV. Addressing Tsukauchi, All Might declares that he has never entered a fight thinking he would lose. He delivers a powerful Shooting Style Smash kick to All For One's face, and the chapter concludes.
