'''League of Villains''' is a supervillain team that features in [[My Hero Academia]]. ==History== [[File:MyHeroAcademiaV1-24.jpg|thumb|left|200px|The League of Villains.]] The League of Villains was a criminal organization that consisted of supervillains that were brought together by the crime lord [[All For One]]. The villain was once the criminal mastermind that dominated Japan until his organisation was dismantled by [[Toshinori Yagi|All-Might]] and his body damaged by the hero. Though weakened, All For One continued to operate from the shadows where he decided to raise [[Tomura Shigaraki|Tenko Shimura]] as his successor. The boy came to be raised to have nothing but hatred for All-Might and a desire to destroy the society of superheroes that emerge following the manifestation of [[Quirks (My Hero Academia)|Quirks]]. In this time, '''Kurogiri''' was assigned as an aide and guide to Shigaraki whilst All For One developed a support base of followers for Tomura. After many years, Tomura looked to remind the hero society that the world was a dangerous place and orchestrated an ambitious attack against [[U.A. High School]]. The intention was to draw out All-Might into a confrontation with [[Nomus (My Hero Academia)|Nomu]] who was an engineered creation designed to fight the Symbol of Peace. With Kurogiri's power, the League of Villains staged an attack on the school where various villains helped in the assault. Tomura hides behind the crowd of pressers and eventually destroys the school's defensive gate. This gets the media on school grounds and prompts the school's alarms to sound and sends the students into a panic. Tomura uses this as a cover and steals the itinerary for Class 1-A. The schedule details All Might teaching Class 1-A at an off-campus training facility. The League of Villains gather around seventy petty criminals and All For One supplies a strong Nomu for their evil mission. The next day, Kurogiri warps all the villains into the U.S.J. and they begin their assault on the U.A. students. Tomura and Kurogiri are disappointed to find that All Might was not present. The former decides they should attack and draw out All Might. The Rescue Hero: Thirteen tries to evacuate the students while the Erasure Hero: Eraser Head takes on the crowd of villains at the central plaza of the facility. Kurogiri sneaks by Eraser Head and confronts Thirteen with all the students. He announces that this is the big debut for the League of Villains and demanded to know the location of All Might. Eijiro Kirishima and Katsuki Bakugo retaliate but Kurogiri evades their assault and spreads all of the students throughout the facility. The League of Villains plan to split up the students and kill them in the different areas of the arena. The League of Villains severely underestimate the U.A. students as they prove to be more than a match for the low-end criminals. Tomura studies Eraser Head's moves and attacks after finding his weakness. Together, Tomura and Nomu crushed the Erasure Hero whilst Kurogiri incapacitated Thirteen but Tenya Ida managed to escape the facility to recruit reinforcements from the main campus. Kurogiri reported on Tenya's escape to Tomura with this news deeply upsetting the young villain. In his normal sadistic fashion, Tomura tried to leave a pile of dead students behind for All Might and the others to find when they arrive. However, All Might finally arrived at the scene first in order to save the day. All Might came to save Eraser Head and defeated the remaining petty criminals, leaving only Tomura, Kurogiri, and Nomu standing. It was then that All Might and Nomu clashed, but the villains worked together to ambush and trap All Might. All seemed lost until the more powerful students in Class 1-A intervene. Shoto Todoroki, Eijiro, and Katsuki effortlessly defeated villains earlier and made their way to the central plaza to stop Nomu. Katsuki even manages to restrain Kurogiri and Shoto freezes Nomu. Tomura was impressed that the kids were strong enough to free All Might and turn the tide of battle. Nomu recovered from the student's attacks, frees Kurogiri, and engages All Might again. This time, Tomura and Kurogiri are kept out of the fight because of shockwaves produced by the intense exchange of blows. All Might defeats Nomu with a display of awesome power and this sends Tomura into a tantrum. Tomura and Kurogiri attempt to kill All Might after he's weakened by Nomu, but the Tenya returns to the U.S.J. with the other teachers. Izuku Midoriya buys All Might enough time for the teachers to intervene. The teachers defeat the recovering criminals and force Kurogiri to warp himself and Tomura away in retreat after Snipe injures Tomura. Before disappearing, Tomura warns All Might that his reign as the Symbol of Peace is coming to an end. Kurogiri returns the defeated duo back to their hideout. Tomura tells All For One that All Might hasn't weakened and Nomu was captured. All For One reassured Tomura that All Might will fall and ordered him to use this as a learning experience. The infamy surrounding the Hero Killer: Stain rises and gained the attention of the League of Villains. Kurogiri confronts him on a rooftop in Hosu City and recruits him to their hideout. The Hero Killer is motivated to rid the world of false heroes and asks what Tomura's motivations are. Tomura simply answers he wants to kill All Might and this disappoints Stain. Stain believes killing is meaningless without conviction and prepares to cull the villains in the same manner he does the false heroes. The villains come to blows and Stain pinned Tomura to the ground. Stain informed Tomura that he was a weakling because he lacked real conviction. Tomura destroyed Stain's knife and forced him to back off. He told the Hero Killer that he may not have 'real conviction' but he desired to destroy society because it praised All Might. Stain realizesd that they both agree to destroy the present and explains he attacked to test Tomura's motives. Tomura demands he leave but Kurogiri claims he can be an asset to the League. Kurogiri returns the Hero Killer to Hosu. The latter explains he must stain the streets of society with blood until people realize that Heroes should not receive payment or glory for their actions. Kurogiri confirms the crime rates have dropped wherever he has slain false heroes. Stain leaves and Tomura mocks his work. He doesn't believe they can work together and decides to destroy the Hero Killer. Irritated, Tomura requested the use of three Nomu's from All For One and had Kurogiri warp them to Hosu City. The Nomu incite chaos across Hosu and Pro Heroes respond to the threat. Lower level heroes prove no match for the Nomu as they terrorize the city. Gran Torino and Enji Todoroki arrive in the city and combat the Nomu. Together, they defeat one of the Nomu and Endeavor takes on the remaining two alone. He rescues the weaker heroes from the Nomu and burns the larger of the two Nomu's head off. The other escapes and attacks Izuku, who just defeated Stain alongside Shoto and Tenya. Stain regains consciousness and kills the remaining Nomu, upsetting Tomura. Tomura's plan was to use the Nomu to steal Stain's infamy so that no one remembers him. His plan completely backfires as the next day Stain becomes the talk of the entire country while no one speaks a word of the League of Villains. However, All For One had planned for this. Stain's powerful ideology becomes a headline that inspires villains hidden in the shadows to come out of hiding. They all moved toward the association rumored to involve the Hero Killer, the League of Villains. A criminal broker named Giran capitalizes on the League of Villains' newfound fame and recruits people to their cause. He recruits Dabi and Himiko Toga to the League's hideout and introduces them to Tomura. Tomura stubbornly refuses the new recruits and attacks them. Kurogiri stops the fight and sternly reminds Tomura their group needs to expand. Tomura storms out and goes to the Kiyashi Ward Shopping Mall. Kurogiri knows Tomura has been humbled twice and needs to grow up. Tomura mulls over why society can smile thoughtlessly thanks to All Might even though the world is so dangerous. He confronts Izuku at the mall and asks the difference between himself and Stain. Izuku reveals that Stain had real motives and didn't destroy for no reason, and he like most heroes he was inspired by All Might. Tomura makes the connection that he hates Izuku and Stain both because of All Might. He escapes the mall and finds his new conviction. Tomura decides to use Stain's ideology as a stepping stone for his new convictions: to destroy not only All Might but all of Hero Society. Tomura Shigaraki develops into a real leader with actual conviction. He takes charge of the League of Villains and brings in powerful new recruits that have all been inspired by Stain. He decides to enlist strong villains instead of petty criminals and plans to bring down the pillars of hero society, U.A. and All Might. All For One gives Tomura the location of an upcoming training camp for U.A. students. Tomura establishes the Vanguard Action Squad and sends them to attack the students with the intention of capturing Katsuki Bakugo. Katsuki has publicly displayed an angry and violent temperament that matches that of a potential villain. If the villains can capture a U.A. student and bring them to their side, they can deal a fatal blow to U.A.'s reputation. This will be their first major assault against hero society. ==Overview== In appearance, the League largely consisted of Quirk-users giving each a different form of superpower that they turned to illegal criminal activities that were the hallmark of being a supervillain.
