Comparing My Hero Academia season 7 episode 10 to its chapters

My Hero Academia season 7 episode 10 was titled Wounded Hero! Burning Bright and True. The episode adapted the remaining part of chapter 355, chapters 356-358, and a part of chapter 359. The episode started where it left off in the previous one as All for One continued his attack on Jiro and Tokoyami.

Jiro got annoyed at the villain and blamed him for making all of his friends cry, referring to Izuku and Aoyama. This was Hawks' cue to attack the villain and he did, making the previously struck wound worse than before. Hawks' attack was followed by Tokoyami's attack, which broke All for One's mask.

The villain started to deducing as to why he was struck by weaklings and blamed the stolen quirks that were rebelling against him during the fight. Until now, every scene was running parallel to the manga chapters. The production team did play with some colors and made All for One's visual more impactful, which was definitely a plus.

After getting annoyed by the heroes in My Hero Academia season 7 episode 10, All for One forcibly ate one of his stolen quirks and attacked at a 360-degree angle, hoping to hit every one of his targets. Fortunately, Endeavor bounced back at the right time, saving Hawks and the young heroes. Endeavor risked his hand and rushed toward the villain with a flame attack.

As expected, the villain evaded the attack, but Endeavor was now infuriated. He didn't stop at any cost and kept chasing the villain everywhere he went, hoping to make things right in exchange for what he did to Toya (Dabi). Fortunately, the Pro Hero was able to grab the villain and hit him with a Prominence Burn attack.

All for One was now burned to a crisp, but he still had an ace up his sleeve, the quirk-destroying drug that Overhaul synthesized. He mocked Endeavor for being so reckless, but the episode didn't show what happened after that.

This part was also faithful to the manga but it skipped the scene where Deku, traveling to the battlefield, was informed through Danger Sense about something dangerous. The reason for skipping this part could be to build suspense around the event that could possibly be 'something dangerous.'

My Hero Academia season 7 episode 10 then shifted back to the flying coffin where the heroes were struggling against TomurAFO's growth. Bakugo, on the other hand, was prepared, as the addition to his hero suit automatically collected his explosive sweat.

After an ample amount was collected, Bakugo's hero suit changed and allowed him to shoot explosive bullets. Bakugo jumped forward at TomurAFO and hit him with an improvised Howitzer Impact, combining his quirk with his explosive sweat. During the last moment of impact, TomurAFO evaded Bakugo's improvised attack by catching him.

The villain then hits Bakugo, alongside Mirko and Best Jeanist, with his grown fingers. The impact left Bakugo gravely injured and bleeding, hinting that he could be reaching his endpoint. Another scene was skipped here where some heroes were fighting outside the flying coffin. Other than that, the episode was faithful to the manga series.
