I am DEAD.

The Beginning

I’m so normal about this

Okay so I just read MHA chapter 403 and I have some... questions? Openings for All Might surviving? Observations about odd behavior? Whatever it's called.

AFO used Blood Curdle on him, right? And then All Might proceeded to look very very dead. But. So far AFO has only held him up. What is he doing? Showing the world how he has they Symbol of Peace utterly subdued? He's stopped moving. I certainly think he looks dead. But AFO hasn't actually hurt him yet. Hold on.

In this panel, I really thought AFO was going to drop him or snap his spine.

This looks like a victory pose. "Look, world, I killed your Symbol of Peace." But... he didn't. He's doing a premature victory pose, and we all know how that goes.

Also... why not kill him the second he was done with his monologue? Why not hold up his dead body instead of his petrified one? If I were AFO, that's what I would do. Is there a reason he wants All Might to only look dead? Why? How long will you delay the killing? How long will you show him off? Are you so arrogant that you think no one will come to his rescue?

🚨BOKU NO HERO ACADEMIA CHAPTER 403 ALERT SPOILER!!!🚨

Hear me out! 👂👂

Chapter 403

Is anyone actually mad about chapter 403 of MHA?? Because i keep hearing people say that izuocha shippers are mad abt it because it's a 'bkdk chapter' but I don't see anyone complaining 😭

The chapter isn't romantic, or implied to be, so i don't get why people would be mad over it??

My Hero Academia Chapter 403: The End of an Era and The Beginning

It's been a while since I did this mainly due to being busy with Grad School (which I'm almost done with thank god). But, I don't think a chapter has gotten me this hyped since Shoto Todoroki: Rising and Ochako's chapter where she saves Toga. Since the chapter is officially released, I can scream, cry, and kick my feet with you all in these bullet points. God, I love My Hero Academia, y'all.

• First off, HOLY SHIT KATSUKI BAKUGO IS ALIVE!!!!!! Apparently, it has been over 400 days since he was initially killed and brought every Bakugo lover to their knees in tears including myself. I still remember leaks night when that happened and pretty much everyone was in mourning. Then leaks night happens for his revival and everyone is celebrating like it's the second coming of Christ or something and I'm with them!

• We all knew that Bakugo would come back to life once Edgeshot started surgery on his heart, but it was the way his resurrection would be executed that I was wondering about. I can see why the whole "Edgeshot suddenly sacrifices himself to save Bakugo" would lessen the impact of his "death", but I really don't care much anymore because the way Kohei Horikoshi brought Bakugo back was SO good!

• Think about it: All Might is on the brink of death in the hands of All For One. All the red flags are there including the flashback of baby Toshinori (SO CUTE BTW LOOK AT THAT BIG LAUGH🥺) and his mother (whom he absolutely inherited his hairstyle from) in this very chapter. Gentle wants to help save him, but he's focused on keeping UA in the air. Every pro hero, UA student, and the Big 3 are either severely injured, passed out, or too preoccupied with something else to take on AFO. And even Izuku Midoriya, his protege, is busy dealing with Tomura Shigaraki in order to prevent him from turning Japan into dust. The only other person who can possibly save All Might now is Bakugo despite probably still being seriously injured himself.

• And this is great for Bakugo because this is his chance to save All Might. Not only is All Might his idol and his hero, but he is also the man Bakugo truly believes he destroyed after being kidnapped in Kamino Ward. I still believe Bakugo hasn't truly forgiven himself for that yet and this would be his way of redeeming himself. This reason alone is why I don't think All Might will die in this final arc. And if he does, I will be devastated because I really want to see him survive until the end.

• I am going to conclude this by commenting on how incredible Horikoshi is not just as a writer but as an artist because holy shit he needed that 2 week break. We got an incredible WSJ-colored Cover Page, a chapter-colored cover page, and then 15 pages of peak fiction. Those final pages once it's revealed that Bakugo is alive will live in my head rent-free for the rest of my days. ESPECIALLY THOSE LAST TWO PAGES HOLY SHIT! THE FACES, THE TEARS, THE WAY TIME SUDDENLY STOPPED WHEN THEY LOOKED AT EACH OTHER 💚🧡 The way Horikoshi draws All Might, Bakugo, and Deku is astounding and makes me cry. Those are his adopted sons. Those boys are soulmates in some capacity whether you like it or not. It may be the end of All Might's era, but it's the beginning of a new era; a new generation of heroes with Deku and Bakugo taking the lead. I can't wait for next week!

Me after Bakugou came Alive after a gruesome year

Once a hero,

Always a hero.

Stay there, Yoojin I could give you a head.

Don't you fucking dare! You stay right there mister!

So, with the recent spoiler of the new chapter… is anyone going to make the point that The Return is supposed to happen on Kirishima’s birthday? I know it’s not much, but it makes me happy.

It’s time to listen to Francesca by hozier on repeat and thinking about bakugo coming back from the dead
