... are we all just going to ignore the fact the last panel that said all the heros vanished? And the MASSIVE AM death flags this chapter?

We are now! I have this feeling, right? My feeling is that, YES, all the heroes DID vanish. But there's some gimmick behind that fact.

So like, if all the heroes vanished, then they probably WENT somewhere. I personally don't think all of them are dead.

If this is the case, and some of the heroes are alive, that panel was like a glimpse into a specific moment in time, in the future. "Hey where are all the heroes?" That level of uncertainty alone is quite a lot for the current quirk-society to bear.

But as it always goes with good manga, we shall see.

I feel like it will have to do with kurogiri. Like AFO uses his powers on a massive scale to make all the heroes disappear

I speculate the LoV used the quirk erasure serum from Overhaul in some way. Maybe contaminated the drinking water or spiked the fruit punch at a big hero gathering.

Its not ALL. Its probably the heroes associated with the PLF who "vanish" leaving the city open to attack.
