Going through old conversations, and I still LOVE the one where we explored the parallels between Tron: Uprising

and

Batman Beyond

in their exploration of the theme: “aging hero trains a young successor to take on his name and role”

…

and how this led my brain into a delighted connection to another famous show that explores a very similar dynamic:


My Hero Academia Original title: Boku no Hirô Akademia TV Series • 2016- • TV-14 • 24m Anime Shonen Superhero A superhero-admiring boy enrolls in a prestigious hero academy and learns what it really means to be a hero, after the strongest superhero grants him his own powers.ALT


and how in that case, the role and the associated power had been passed down to multiple generations of successors before:

…

All For One This article is about the Quirk. For the Quirk's original user, see All For One. All For One（オール・フォー・ワン Oru Fo Wan'） was the Quirk used by Zen Shigaraki, better known by his eponymous alias All For One, before being transferred to his successor, Tomura Shigaraki, while keeping a duplicate. A weaker version of the Quirk was also used by Nine. ALT


…

and how


if you tried to draw a parallel to All-For-One, the original hero the Quirk is named for…

within the world of the Tron succession of heroes


there’s really only one possibility…


Alan-One, and One-in-All.
