My Hero Academia's final chapter was released on August 5, 2024. Although the episode has been officially out for almost a week, the fandom has still not understood the true meaning behind the ending and still criticize the bittersweet fate of the protagonist, Izuku Midoriya. While there could be different meanings to the ending, there is certainly no bad ending.

The criticism of the fandom was that during the eight-year time skip when Deku spent his time as a teacher at U.A. High, his friends forgot about him. However, this would be a lie and Tsuyu's dialogue during the Dark Deku arc is proof, because she claimed that her friend in Class A would never leave one of their classmates do something alone.

My Hero Academia: Why Froppy's words indicate that Class A never left Deku's side even though he changed professions

My Hero Academia final chapter featured an eight-year time skip. After the time skip, Izuku Midoriya continued his journey as a teacher at U.A. High alongside his past teachers like Aizawa. On the other hand, the majority of the other heroes continued their lives as professional heroes.

Bakugo and Todoroki continued competing for the #1 Pro Hero, and Uraraka and some other students started working on a welfare program about quirk awakenings.

Tentacole also gave his best in fighting for heteromorphs' rights; unfortunately, Deku was the only one left behind.

Even though Deku's reason for remaining a teacher wasn't revealed, the truth behind this could be that he was always interested in learning about heroes, not becoming one, so teaching was the perfect profession for him.

However, the argument the fandom brought was that he was left behind in the U.A. as the other students continued their journey as heroes. In reality, this could be a lie, but as proof, we can look back at the fight when Class A stopped Deku when he was at his lowest.

During the Dark Deku arc, after cornering the protagonist, Class A tried their best to halt Izuku before he could escape. As he crossed through each one of his friends, each one expressed their feelings on how they felt for Deku being the center of attention for the upcoming war against Shigaraki and All for One.

Eventually, the turn of Froppy also came, and he called Midoriya a friend, saying that if he tried to bear all the burden of the ongoing issue onto himself, she and the rest of the Class A would never let Izuku accomplish such a selfish dream.

The meaning behind this message was that Class A would never leave Midoriya alone no matter what dream he was trying to accomplish alone.

His dream to witness more heroes like the ones he saw in his childhood might also be considered one that he is fighting alone.

So, judging from Froppy's comments during the Dark Deku arc, Class A never left their friend alone to rethink his choices and there are chances that they kept visiting Izuku at U.A.
