My Hero Academiaseason 7, episode #21is set to be the epic finale of season 7, featuring the fight between the Quirkless All Might and All for One, who’s being rewound due to a special concoction. Just how All Might plans to fight is still something of a mystery, but he was briefly seen using his briefcase, which began to transform.
Episode #20 of season 7 focused on Himiko Toga and Ochaco Uraraka, as the latter desperately tried to reach out to the former in the hopes of making a breakthrough. It certainly wasn’t easy, and Uraraka did get stabbed for her trouble, but she actually did manage to get through to Toga, getting her to open up about her past and her feelings. This happened to be right around the time when Toga ran out of Jin’s blood, bringing the Sad Man’s Death Parade to a sudden ending.

What Happened in My Hero Academia, Season 7, Episode #20?
Uraraka Approaches Toga With Compassion
The situation with Toga and the Twice doubles was only worsening at the beginning of episode #20, with Toga’s doubles consuming blood in the air and turning into heroes now in addition to villains. Uraraka had managed to locate the real Toga and attempted to draw closer to her, which largely just infuriated Toga. While Uraraka only wanted to talk, Toga seemed to be in no mood for a conversation, lashing out against her. Mixed throughout were numerous flashbacks, to Toga’s childhood and to her time with the League of Villains, showing how she’d been treated.
In her desperation to push on and get through to Toga,Uraraka underwent a Quirk Awakening, making it so that her Zero Gravity spread by touch, allowing her to lift all the Twice clones up into the air simultaneously. With a simple act of kindness, Uraraka’s sincere compliment to Toga broke through to her heart and got her to open up, finally discussing love as she’d talked about before. As Jin’s blood began to wear off and Toga lost the ability to create and control the doubles, they started to evaporate away, and the tide of battle finally shifted in the heroes' favor.

My Hero Academia Season 7, Episode #21 Battles Without a Quirk
All Might Faces Down His Greatest Adversary
Episode #21 of season 7 ofMy Hero Academiais entitled “Battle Without A Quirk,” and will be the season finale. From the title and the preview, it’s clear that the focus will be returning to All Might and his attempt to distract All for One. The preview went to great lengths to conceal exactly how All Might will be fighting, so it seems for the best not to spoil that particular aspect of the episode. What was seen in the preview was a flashback to All Might’s time training withhis predecessor, Nana Shimura, perhaps due to All Might reflecting on how he started out without a Quirk, too.
The preview also showed that the story isn’t quite done with Toga and Uraraka, either, as the two were shown laying on the ground next to each other, now that the doubles had subsided. Uraraka is still rather badly injured, so it’ll be important for her to get medical care as soon as possible. She’s already lost quite a bit of blood from her stab wound, and that’s going to catch up to her sooner or later.

While the final war ofMy Hero Academiamay not be fully over, season 7 is, so fans will have to wait a while to see how the rest of the war goes. HopefullyMy Hero Academiadoesn’t leave fans on too much of a cliffhanger, as the wait between seasons is already tough to bear, being this close to the end.
