Summary
As much as most individuals might choose not to believe in luck, calling it coincidence, luck is still a force that happens, and some individuals might be lucky while others might be unlucky. In a world where most humans have an added advantage by having quirks—a superhuman ability—some people still manage to attract bad luck in theMy Hero Academiaseries.

There are some characters in theMy Hero Academiaworld that bad things happen to a lot, and these characters can either be heroes or villains. These characters might go through the same situation another character goes through, but they receive a more unfair result or treatment.
In this case, “unluckiest” also means “unfortunate” and “tragic,” so not just bad luck.
7Tomoko Shiretoko
Losing Her Quirk
Most heroes with a quirk never want to lose their ability because it is beneficial to them and other people around them. Unfortunately, Ragdoll becomes one of the unlucky heroes to lose her Search quirk to the greatest villain in theMy Hero Academiaworld, All For One. As a hero,Ragdoll losing her quirkis detrimental to her career because she cannot continue to be a hero without her quirk.
As much as bad things should only happen to bad people, good people still have their share of bad encounters, and Ragdoll is one of them. She is always in high spirits, and this loss breaks her down as she moves from being a hero with the Pussycatsto being a secretary. But Ragdoll still tries to be her usual self and help the other heroes when she can.
6Mirio Togata
Losing His Quirk And Mentor
A series of unfortunate events happen to Lemillion inMy Hero Academia.This pro-hero has a unique quirk that allows him to pass through any object. This Permeation quirk makes All Might consider him the next recipient of his powerful quirk, One For All. Unluckily for Lemillion, Izuku Midoriya shows up, and his encounter with All Might makes All Might reconsider using Lemillion as his successor, and he picks Midoriya instead. Even as All Might picks Midoriya, Lemillion does not let that stop him from being a hero, and he does not harbor any negative feelings towards Midoriya.

In addition to losing the chance to be the greatest hero of all time, Lemillion also loses his quirkduring a battle with Overhaul, and he watches his mentor, Sir Nighteye, die. All these events are enough to break an individual down, but Lemillion still moves around with a smile on his face, making fans feel bad for him even more. As expected, when a hero loses their quirk, Lemillon stops being a hero, but as the anime progresses, some things subtly change in his favor.
5Eri
Used As A Guinea Pig Because Of Her Quirk
In this world, there is little one can do to change or determine the type of quirk they will have. Eri just happens to be a young child witha very powerful quirk, Rewind. Her quirk reverses an individual’s body to a previous state; without control, it can reverse the person until they die. Unfortunately for Eri, Overhaul manages to get a hold of her and her quirk, and he puts her under mental, emotional, and physical trauma for his selfish and evil needs.
While other children were playing and doing silly things, Eri wasa guinea pig to Overhaulas he kept poking her to create a quirk-erasing drug which he, unfortunately, succeeded in making. Knowing that it is her quirk behind such an evil drug, Eri feels at fault, even more so when she finds out that Lemillion loses his quirk because of this drug. In addition, Eri is also responsible for the death of her father because she is unable to control her quirk, and she rewinds him till he does not exist.
4Tenko Shimura
Family Situation
Growing up, Tenko wanted to be a hero, just like most boys and girls his age, but his father was against this idea and would constantly abuse Tenko for mentioning it. Tenko’s quirk manifested a bit late, and it was quite a show wrecker. Tenko’s Decay quirk shows up and immediately wreaks havoc and destruction. He is unable to control his quirk, and he ends up killing his whole family.

Alone and terrified, his luck worsensas he meets All For One, who decides to take him in, and the young Tenko, who wants to become a hero, becomes the disciple of the greatest villain in theMy Hero Academiaworld. Good and bad cannot mix without one of them changing sides, and this is exactly what happens as Tenko becomes Shigaraki, an evil villain who wants to get rid of all the heroes.
3Jin Bubaigawara
A Quirk That Messed With His Mental Health
Twice’s quirk, unfortunately, becomes the end of him. Twice’s double quirk, just as the name implies, allows him to create a double of objects or living things. The fascinating thing about his quirk is that the duplicate of whatever he duplicates has independence and can also create a duplicate since it possesses Twice’s quirk.
Twice’s luck becomes sour when he duplicates himself, so much so that he is unsure of his real self. He struggles with so much mental stress, and when he finally manages to get over his mental stress, he dies. Twice was unlucky till his very last breath.
2Toya Todoroki
An Obsessive Father
Toya is the first son of Endeavor, the number one hero in Japan. Before Endeavor becomes the number one hero, he obsesses over overtaking All Might and birthing a child that can defeat him. This obsession makes him ignore his fatherly duties, and Toya had to beg and do all sorts of things just for his father’s love.
As a young child, Toya is not good enough for Endeavor, and the latter is quick to push him aside when he realizes that Toya cannot achieve his dreams of defeating All Might. All Toya wanted was his father’s love and attention, but he could not get it, and this pushed him to create a massive fire withhis Blueflame quirkthat supposedly took his life. Toya grows up away from his family and becomes the evil villain fans know as Dabi.
1Hitoshi Shinso
A Brainwashing Quirk
Like most individuals in theMy Hero Academiaworld, Hitoshi has a quirk which makes him a victim of discrimination. This is quite unfair for something he has little to no control over, as it is a god-given ability. His Brainwashing quirk forces people to do as he wishes, and people attribute this feature to villains.
Because of his quirk, he is unable to be the pro-hero he always dreams of becoming, and he does not have friends because they fear his quirk. He tries not to let what people say and how they act affect him, but it still does, to an extent. Regardless, he does what he can to achieve his dream of becoming a hero. It is unfair that he faces this because of a quirk he did not ask for.
My Hero Academia
Cast
In My Hero Academia, some humans have superpowers called quirks. Izuku Midoriya, nicknamed Deku, is not one of them. Deku has always idolized heroes like the number one hero, All Might, and since he was a child, he has always wanted to be a hero. However, his lack of a quirk has always held him back, but a chance encounter with All Might after discovering a classmate in danger sets Deku on the path to becoming a true hero. My Hero Academia centers around Deku and a class of heroes-in-training at UA. This school shapes young quirk users into future heroes through fake rescue missions, combat training, and other hero-tempering tasks. With young Deku inheriting the “One-For-All” quirk, he will learn what it means to be a true hero while facing off with dastardly supervillains.
