Bakugo's Revival Made Sense: Examining Chapter 405 Closely
Fans of My Hero Academia have debated over Bakugo's remarkable comeback from what seemed to be death. But Chapter 405 clarifies Bakugo's comeback's specifics and provides possible solutions to some of the residual questions.
Bakugo's Resurgence and Edgeshot's Sacrifice
According to the chapter, Edgeshot—who gave his life to save Bakugo—was indeed still alive. He had given a sizable piece of his body. Now in a reduced state, Edgeshot says something was lacking even though he was able to heal Bakugo's ailments including restarting his lungs and heart. Here Bakugo's own strength comes in handy. Edgeshot finds a bead of nitroglycerin, the identical chemical that caused Bakugo's fatal injuries, and this bead served as the spark to reenergize Bakugo's life force.
Bakugo's power, not Edgeshot's, was really vital.
Given the two characters lacked a close relationship, many viewers questioned the meaning of Edgeshot's sacrifice. Although Edgeshot's acts were clearly admirable, some of his supporters felt letdown by his absence of close relationship. But the chapter underlines that Bakugo's comeback was finally the result of his own will and the work he put in sharping his power. Crucially in Bakugo's revival is the nitroglycerin bead, evidence of his explosive peculiarity. This is similar to Shigaraki's rebirth during the Paranormal Liberation War arc, where ultimately their own might saved both heroes.
The Continuum of Bakugo's Injuries
Edgeshot's heroic efforts notwithstanding nonetheless Bakugo's body shows the effects of his near-death encounter. Bakugo is limited to mild duty even though he was released from the hospital, therefore restricting his physical exercise. Bakugo, who is known for his fiery demeanor and propensity to push his boundaries, finds this difficult; yet, he is resolved to follow doctor's advice while, whenever at U.A. High School, actively engaging in class events.
A Touching Reunion and the Interpretive Value of Sacrifice
Bakugo and Edgeshot meet once more in the epilogue chapters during battle cleanup. Slowly regaining his body, Edgeshot tells Bakugo his sacrifice was little and he will soon be back in action. Though their relationship may not have been as firmly anchored as Bakugo's with other characters like Best Jeanist, this scenario emphasizes the link developed between the two heroes.
A divisive but fulfilling ending
Although the events surrounding Bakugo's comeback may still be debatable, some supporters have been relieved to learn that his own power was very vital in his comeback. This last line of evidence supports Bakugo's near-death experience's relevance by noting his injuries' long-lasting effects. Bakugo's comeback might be seen by some as practical, but the fact that he deals with actual consequences gives his character arc more complexity.
