Kohei Horikoshi's popular manga, My Hero Academia, is coming to an end after an impressive decade long run.
Fans have been captivated by this series for years, and the climactic showdown with the formidable TomurAFO met all expectations.
Although the epic final battle ended with Deku and the heroes winning in chapter 423, Horikoshi revealed that the story is not over yet.
Chapter 424 moves to the Epilogue, revealing the world's recovery process after the war. This segment promises to explore the aftermath and how society is rebuilding after the intense conflict.
However, one lingering question remains unanswered: will Deku and Ochaco's relationship develop further? The future of these beloved characters continues to intrigue readers as the story ends.
Fan-favorite duo Deku and Ochaco
From the beginning of My Hero Academia, Izuku Midoriya and Ochaco Uraraka showed interest in each other.
Their relationship began as a simple friendship built on respect for each other's abilities. Over time, as classmates and comrades in battle, their relationship grew stronger.
Ochaco's feelings for Deku first became apparent during the Final Exams, when Aoyama's teasing made her blush.
This causes her to often reflect on their relationship. Similarly, Deku often blushes and becomes flustered around Uraraka.
Ochaco fully realizes her romantic feelings for Deku during the climactic final battle. When the fight ended, fans eagerly awaited the possibility of them officially becoming a couple.
Horikoshi's ending pleases My Hero Academia fans
My Hero Academia is filled with non-stop action and battles, leaving little room for a romantic relationship to develop between Ochaco and Izuku. However, the ending is a perfect opportunity for this to change.
When the war ends and life returns to normal, Ochaco is finally able to confess her feelings to Midoriya. Given their history, it seems likely that he would reciprocate.
After so much turmoil, their budding romance will be a refreshing change for fans. However, it is still uncertain whether Kohei Horikoshi will follow this path or not.
