Fans are overwhelmed by the spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 367
When Izuku made his triumphal entry in chapter 366, fans knew that it was only a matter of time before the boy noticed Katsuki. My Hero Academia chapter 367 finally delivered this long-awaited moment, shocking fans on Twitter with how genuine Izuku’s grief felt. The boy was destroyed after noticing his best friend laying on the ground.
Twitter was filled with fans who became emotional after reading the spoilers about this upcoming chapter. Deku’s reaction truly caused havoc in the community, breaking a lot of hearts along the way. Fans are worried about the green-haired boy, who looks increasingly tired and stressed with each new appearance.
However, his reaction to Bakugo’s condition is what caused fans to go crazy. The fanbase is still crying over Izuku’s terrified and regret-filled face after seeing his best friend laying on the ground. The scene became even more devastating when fans noticed that Deku’s attention remained on Katsuki’s All Might card, a memento from their childhood.
Deku reacted as any human being would upon seeing one of the most important people in his life almost dead, with anger and hatred towards the culprit. This caused him to again enter berserker mode, which fans could not get enough of. Fans loved the pure fury reflected on the boy’s face and praised Horikoshi for how amazing the drawing was.
Sadly, not everyone’s reaction to this portion of the spoilers about My Hero Academia chapter 367 was as positive. Many fans chose to focus on Shigaraki’s sick and cruel taunts after seeing Deku being controlled by his anger. The villain asked Izuku if he enjoyed his welcoming present, proving once more that Shigaraki/AFO is without a doubt the franchise’s vilest villain.
After Mirio helped Deku calm down, the boy was depicted by Horikoshi in a fighting stance, with the vestiges of most previous OFA holders behind him. Fans loved the panel, with many waiting to see a full-colored version of it soon.
Yet, many other members of the fandom noticed something missing from the shot, or rather someone. A large portion of the fanbase realized that neither Yoichi, the first user of OFA, nor All Might appear in My Hero Academia chapter 367. This has raised several questions amongst the fanbase, as there is no reason for them to not appear behind Deku.
Some fans on Twitter reminded the fanbase that All Might’s vestige was last seen with Bakugo after the boy was attacked by Shigaraki. Still, that does not explain the sudden disappearance of AFO’s little brother. A few fans believe that the first holder of OFA may have taken over Deku to help him calm down or fight against his brother on his own.
A small portion of the fandom also lost their minds after seeing Monoma and Aizawa hold hands. These two characters have witnessed all the tragedies caused by Shigaraki without having a chance to intervene or save their comrades. Fans noticed how they were looking to support each other after going through such a traumatic experience.
Another group preferred to focus on the color-spread that will be released along with My Hero Academia chapter 367. In it, fans can see many Heroes and Villains eating together. Many fans believe this is Horikoshi’s depiction of a world in which everyone could coexist peacefully.
Lastly, many fans expressed their concern after seeing their favorite characters’ conditions in My Hero Academia chapter 367. Mirio, Nejire, Tamaki, and Mirko can be seen with severe injuries all over their bodies. Fans just hope they can all make it out of this fight alive, as the Heroes have already lost so much.
Final thoughts
Fans were already expecting My Hero Academia chapter 367 to be an emotional experience, as this was Deku’s first appearance in a while. Nevertheless, no one expected the chapter to be such a gut-wrenching event. Everything from seeing our favorite characters’ conditions to Deku’s reaction was intentionally done to make the readers feel the same dread as our protagonist.
There are still a few days to go before the official release of the chapter. When it is finally made available to the public, fans will better understand the events and emotions Horikoshi tried to depict in My Hero Academia chapter 367.
