Chapter 405 recap

In My Hero Academia chapter 405, All Might begins with a surreal conversation with Sir Nighteye, who confirms that his vision predicted his death. All Might then expresses concern for Bakugo's well-being. To everyone's shock, Bakugo starts vomiting blood. Edgeshot emerges from Bakugo's body and explains that he helped Bakugo by making him vomit built-up blood. Edgeshot admits that while he was able to repair Bakugo's organs and bones using his own body, it takes a toll on him as he is not built for combat. He further reveals that Bakugo's own Quirk, combined with his intense training, ultimately saved him by jumpstarting his repaired heart.
All Might bestowed upon Bakugo the formidable Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight gauntlet, serving both as a potent weapon and potential support for his injured limb. Bakugo couldn't help but smile at its name. Meanwhile, All For One contemplated pursuing Tomura Shigaraki and Izuku Midoriya, growing increasingly enraged by the unfavorable turn of events. The chapter concluded with Bakugo boldly charging at All For One, assuming the role of his ultimate adversary, triggering a nostalgic recollection of the Second User.
What to expect from chapter 406 (speculative)
The upcoming My Hero Academia chapter 406 is expected to kick off with Bakugo and All For One's intense battle, which has just officially started in the previous issue's conclusion. It is anticipated that there might be a flashback from All For One's perspective, shedding light on his connection with One For All's Second User. This encounter with the Second User in Bakugo for the second time implies that we may soon learn more about their relationship.
Regardless, My Hero Academia chapter 406 will predominantly revolve around Bakugo's clash with All For One. Although there is a slight possibility that the focus momentarily shifts to the showdown between Tomura Shigaraki and Izuku "Deku" Midoriya, it appears unlikely given the significance of Bakugo's return.

Editor's P/S
As a long-time fan of the My Hero Academia series, I am eagerly anticipating the release of chapter 406. The previous chapter left us with a major cliffhanger, as Bakugo boldly charged at All For One, assuming the role of his ultimate adversary. I am excited to see how this battle unfolds and whether Bakugo will be able to defeat All For One. I am also curious to learn more about the mysterious fear that consumes All For One and his connection with One For All's Second User.
Overall, I have high expectations for My Hero Academia chapter 406 and believe it will be a pivotal moment in the series. I am confident that Horikoshi will deliver an exciting and action-packed chapter that will leave fans wanting more.
