The man behind the massive muscle form, Toshinori Yagi, has a detailed profile, though his age remains a calculated figure. His personal timeline is the key to understanding his current status in the *My Hero Academia* universe.- Real Name: Toshinori Yagi (八木 俊典)

The Definitive Calculation: All Might's Age at the Start of MHA
The most consistent and widely accepted age for All Might at the beginning of the *My Hero Academia* story, when he first meets Izuku Midoriya, is between 54 and 55 years old. This figure is not arbitrary; it's based on the two most concrete pieces of evidence from the official canon:- OFA Tenure: All Might held the One For All Quirk for 40 years, the longest tenure of any user.
- Receiving OFA: He received the Quirk from Nana Shimura when he was in middle school, which typically occurs between the ages of 14 and 15 in Japan.
How Old Is All Might in the Current MHA Final Arc?
The *My Hero Academia* timeline is generally fast-paced, but a significant amount of time has passed since the story's inception. Izuku Midoriya and the rest of Class 1-A begin the story at 15 and are currently around 16 or 17 years old in the final war arc. By the time the events of the Final War Arc unfold, All Might's age has progressed by approximately one to two years from the initial meeting. * Age at Start of MHA: 54–55 years old. * Time Progression: The story has moved through approximately one and a half to two school years. * Age in Final Arc: This places All Might's age at approximately 55 to 57 years old during the climactic battles. This age range is consistent with the current manga timeline, where All Might is still alive and playing a crucial, albeit non-combatant, role in the final confrontation against All For One. The weight of his years, compounded by his debilitating injury and the loss of One For All, is visually evident in his emaciated true form.Key Age Milestones in the All Might Timeline
Understanding All Might's journey requires pinpointing his age at several pivotal moments that defined his life and the course of the hero society.1. Receiving One For All
* Age: 14–15 * This is the start of his heroic journey. He was a Quirkless young man who inherited the immense power of OFA from Nana Shimura, the seventh user.2. The First Battle with All For One (The Injury)
* Age: Approximately 43–44 * About six years before the start of the main story, All Might suffered his critical injury fighting All For One. This injury severely limited his ability to use his muscle form and marked the beginning of his limited time as the Symbol of Peace.3. The Battle of Kamino Ward (Retirement)
* Age: 54–55 * This is the moment All Might completely exhausted the embers of One For All in his final, iconic battle with All For One. His retirement from active hero duty officially marked the end of an era and the beginning of a new, more dangerous one. He was effectively the same age he was at the start of the story, as the events leading up to Kamino Ward happen within a short timeframe.4. The Current MHA Final Arc
* Age: 55–57 * Despite his retirement, Toshinori Yagi remains an essential figure, a strategic advisor, and a moral pillar for Izuku and the other young heroes. His longevity is a testament to his sheer willpower, even without the power of One For All.The Significance of All Might's Age and Longevity
All Might's age is more than just a number; it's a critical element of the narrative's structure. His being in his mid-fifties when he meets Izuku highlights the urgency of his mission. He was running out of time due to his injury, forcing him to rush the selection and training of a successor. Furthermore, his 40-year tenure with One For All—the longest of any user—underscores his incredible dedication and the stability he brought to the world. His longevity as a hero meant decades of peace, which ultimately made the subsequent generation unprepared for the chaos that followed his retirement. The vast age gap between him and the young heroes like Deku and Bakugo (a difference of about 40 years) emphasizes his role as a foundational figure and the last of a dying breed of traditional heroes. The fact that All Might is now in his late 50s and still actively involved in the final conflict shows that his role as a symbol is not tied to his Quirk, but to his enduring spirit.
