Chapter 392 recap

My Hero Academia chapter 392 began with Tsuyu Asui being captured by Himiko Toga, while Toga questioned what Uraraka could possibly understand about her. Toga continued by emphasizing that Uraraka never had to deal with a single inconvenience, and was born into an easy life since society’s rules were made for people like her.

This led to a flashback to Toga’s childhood, where fans saw that she was constantly told that her love was creepy, wrong, and needed to be suppressed and corrected. Returning to the present, a vestige of Curious began speaking to Toga, emphasizing how society forced her to become someone she wasn’t. Toga then swung at Tsuyu, but was only able to clip her barely before being pulled away by Uraraka.

As Tsuyu fell, Kyoka Jirou went to catch her before realizing that it was actually a clone of Tsuyu. It was then revealed that Toga’s clones were drinking the blood on the battlefield and becoming the Pro Heroes. The real Tsuyu then told Toga that Uraraka was prioritizing reaching her above all else right now, even the rules Pro Heroes must follow. However, it was too late, as the chapter ended with Toga stabbing Uraraka in the stomach as she remembered Twice asking her for her villain name.

What to expect (speculative)?

Since the previous issue ended with a focus on Toga’s villain name, My Hero Academia chapter 393 will likely begin by having her announce it “in response” to Twice’s question. This will likely lead into a continuation of her and Uraraka’s fight, especially with the two now locked in hand-to-hand combat with one another, following Toga stabbing Uraraka.

My Hero Academia chapter 393 may also even give Uraraka a childhood flashback of her own to provide narrative parity to Toga’s. After all, with the core theme of their fight being how different the worlds they come from are, now would be the perfect time to emphasize this by offering a flashback of Uraraka’s childhood.
