Chapter 392 of My Hero Academia shows the battle between Uraraka, Tsuyu, and Toga in better detail. While Uraraka tries her best to empathize with Toga, the latter lashes out at the heroes, claiming that rules are made for those who’ve had an easier life.
Fans have become used to Toga’s outbursts, and given her past, it is understandable why she does not believe there is a better place for her. However, in the latest chapter, she gravely injured one of the few heroes who trusted she could change.
Is Ochako Uraraka Dead?
No, as of chapter 392 of My Hero Academia, Ochako Uraraka is not dead. One of the panels in the chapter shows Toga stabbing her in the stomach, and the hero spits blood due to the injury. However, she is still alive.
So will Uraraka die in the following chapter? It is unlikely to happen. Ochako is one of the main characters in My Hero Academia and the current love interest of the hero. The thick plot armor protecting her might prevent her death.
Many characters have been stabbed or faced near-death situations before, including Bakugo and Deku. All of them have survived, and no main characters have died yet; it is unlikely that Ochako will be the first to bid farewell.
In fact, this might be the perfect opportunity to show a big power boost of Ochako’s gravitational powers. She is definitely not dying before being given a big moment when her powers awaken to a new level.
Ochako is currently bleeding through her wound as Toga has pulled out the knife after stabbing her in the stomach. Her powers will be affected after this, as the injury can render her unable to fight.
Fans are betting on a big power-up for Ochako in the next chapter, and she may be able to control objects without touching them.
Another question arising from everything in the latest chapter is whether Toga wants to kill Ochako. In the flashback, you can see that Toga never killed the bird and was pushed towards her path as everyone kept identifying her as a psychopath.
Of course, she has committed many crimes after turning to the villainous path, but this is her only chance at a reversal of fate. Her past suffering has deluded her mind, and she is not ready to perceive the good in the world. Ochako has the power to bring her around, and I hope she succeeds in her mission.
Just like what Tsuyu said, arresting and beating someone up is far easier than understanding them. However, My Hero Academia has so many grey characters who can be saved despite their faulty decisions and past.
While Ochako’s death is improbable, what will happen in the next chapter is only known by Horikoshi-sensei, so all we can do is hope that sweet Ochako is spared.
