My Hero Academia Reveals Toga's Dark Promise to the World
While it is true My Hero Academia is a shonen series at heart, that hasn't stopped the superhero tale from treading romance from time to time. Ochaco might have buried her feelings for Deku, but Toga has never been quite that skilled. In fact, that manga's final act is finally bringing her love for Deku to a head, and it has prompted Toga to take up some new resolve.
The update comes courtesy of chapter 348 as it went live this past week. It was there My Hero Academia checked in on Izuku after he was blindsided by Toga's confession. The crazed vixen admitted her love for Izuku and asked him to be her girlfriend. As you can imagine, the hero didn't t feel the same, and his response is what prompted Toga to take up a new resolve.
After being rejected, Toga decides it is time to put away the lovesick feelings that tied her to Izuku. In fact, she resolves herself to overtake Izuku entirely, and she even tells Ochaco the following: "I thought maybe I had a shot with Izuku, but nope! I'm over all that now!! The world rejected me, so I reject the world."
It seems like Toga's interest in Izuku was one of the only things keeping her grounded if you can call it that. There is no denying the villain is unhinged, but her love for Izuku did hold Toga back in some ways. This goes for Ochaco as well, but the girls had their own falling out during the manga's massive Raid arc.

Now, Toga is ready to direct her full bloodlust on Izuku and Ochaco without having crushes get in her way. This means the villain is about to fight in ways we've never seen before, but Izuku won't be the one to subdue the girl. Ochaco and Tsuyu have made it clear this job is theirs. So while the girls handle this crush gone wrong, it will fall to Izuku to get back to his real target as Bakugo fights Shigaraki back at UA High School.
