My Hero Academia chapter 429 spoilers: Uraraka reveals Toga’s fate as the mysterious character’s identity is shown

The purported spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 429 were expected to showcase the conversation between Izuku Midoriya and Ochako Uraraka on top of the hill. To no surprise, the purported spoilers lived up to expectations by not only revealing Ochako’s true emotions but also unveiling the mysterious character’s identity that was introduced in the beginning of the epilogue.

The previous chapter showed Class 2A interacting with the new first years. Despite the apparent happiness among the group, Ochako Uraraka appeared to be hiding her true emotions. Later on, she was seen going up the hill where she had previously spoken with Deku and broke down in tears while thinking about Toga. In that moment, Deku arrived to have a conversation with her.

Please note: This article contains spoilers from the My Hero Academia manga.

According to purported spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 429, the upcoming installment is titled ‘I am Here.’ The chapter commences with a mysterious character narrating their past experiences. After his family discovered his mutation, they initially treated him kindly, but eventually imprisoned him in an underground room within their home.

After being locked up in a room with his mouth tied and crying nonstop, he was suddenly given some bread to eat by his family who were shouting “this country is doomed”. Years later, they seemingly left the house and it was met with an explosion that destroyed part of the underground. This allowed him to finally escape. Throughout all these years, the mysterious character had felt alone and scared, but upon seeing the people outside happy and working together, he felt a sense of hope.

Uraraka’s thoughts drifted to Himiko Toga’s last words as she read the spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 429. She was reminded that she owed her life to Himiko’s sacrifice. Just as she was about to break down in tears, Deku suddenly appeared. She hastily wiped away her tears and asked him how he had arrived. Deku explained that he had used One For All, and since the location was where they had shared a meaningful conversation before, he had assumed she would be there.

Even though Ochako had expressed her desire not to be seen, Deku couldn’t help but pay attention to her. Her behavior had been strange ever since the entrance exam, always putting her own needs before others. As he reflected on this, Deku was overwhelmed with memories of Uraraka saving him. Tears welled up in his eyes as he recalled the moment during the Dark Hero Arc when Ochako had extended her hand to help him.

In a similar manner, the spoilers for chapter 429 of My Hero Academia revealed that Deku extended his hand to Ochako. Overcome with emotion, Ochako grasped Deku’s hand tightly and wept even more. She felt responsible for Himiko’s death and pondered different possibilities of how she could have been saved. She couldn’t help but wonder if things would have turned out differently had she and Himiko met as children.

Deku had also been considering the same thing regarding Tenko Shimura. The outcome of this conflict would undoubtedly differ from the previous one. Even All For One had cautioned him about the challenging road ahead. However, Deku remained confident that with persistence, they could overcome any obstacles that lay in their path.

At that moment, the spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 429 revealed that the rest of the class had arrived, concerned for Ochako. Tsuyu hugged Ochako while Katsuki Bakugo approached Deku to inquire about the remaining OFA embers. The rest of the class, however, was left wondering why Deku had not informed them about the embers beforehand.

Deku’s account:

“OFA was completed through the heroism of many people. Now, if we can all create something together…”

After Deku’s explanation about One For All, chapter 429 spoilers of My Hero Academia revealed that one of the U.A. statues was replaced with a statue of Monoma, who could be seen proudly showing it off. Later in the manga, Eri is shown singing at Aoyama’s going-away celebration.

The spoilers for chapter 429 of My Hero Academia then shifted to All Might, who questioned Hawks about including non-heroes in the Billboard Chart following their contributions during the war. This led to the creation of a new term, “eiyuu,”which differed from the more industrialized connotation of “hero.”

The spoilers for chapter 429 of My Hero Academia then shifted to the enigmatic figure from earlier, who observed the individuals surrounding him and questioned why he alone was experiencing torment. Suddenly, a dark substance began to ooze from his fingertips. At that moment, the elderly woman from Tenko’s memories reached out and clasped his hand.

The recent spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 429 revealed that the woman frequently reflected on the moment when she did not assist Tenko. She constantly wondered if the heroes were able to save him and this caused her to lose sleep. However, after witnessing Izuku Midoriya’s actions that day, she was inspired to take action herself. As a result, the elderly woman reassured the enigmatic figure, saying “It’s okay now, because grandma is here.”

From a distance, Deku and Uraraka observed the interaction between the old lady and the boy, feeling a sense of joy that she had reached out to him. They couldn’t help but think about how they wished someone had done the same for Tenko and Himiko. The latest spoilers for My Hero Academia chapter 429 concluded with Hawks’ statement: “A society where heroes have too much free time.”
