My Hero Academia Season 7, episode 13, is set to be an interesting one, with Deku having just arrived at the battle with Shigaraki after being teleported to the wrong location due to Toga's interference. Bakugo's fate is still hanging in the balance, and Deku will surely have some feelings about the situation as well, once he gets his bearings.
My Hero Academia Episode 12 sees the heroes do their best to protect Bakugo and heal his wounds, including a dramatic sacrifice by the pro hero Edgeshot, who uses his Quirk to enter Bakugo's body and turn his own body as thin as thread, allowing him to stitch up Bakugo's internal wounds with even greater precision than Best Jeanist is capable of. It's currently unclear what the consequences of this are for Edgeshot, but Best Jeanist seems to view this action as Edgeshot risking his own life for the boy. It's an incredible act of heroism, and with any luck, it will probably be successful.

What happened in My Hero Academia, Season 7, Episode #12?
Deku goes to battle against Shigaraki
Volume 12 examined many of the situations that occurred during the final battle. Dabi was still active, and generating even more heat than before, copying Shoto's moves. All for One was revealed to have taken a drug based on Eri's Rewind, which healed the damage to his body, even the damage done by All Might years ago, but this healing process came with a condition – All for One would continue to rewind until he ceased to exist. Possessing immense power for a limited time, All for One attempted to reunite with Shigaraki and transfer the rest of his power to his protege/other self.
Back at the Shigaraki battlefield, Edgeshot sacrifices himself in a desperate attempt to help Bakugo recover. It's a touching moment for Best Jeanist, who is also trying his best to help patch up Bakugo's wounds. Mirko, Lemillion, and the others do their best to keep Shigaraki occupied, but Shigaraki notices their attempts to heal Bakugo and they anger him. Shigaraki transforms into a new, terrifying form covered in mutated hands that protect his body like armor. With a little help from Lemillion, Deku is finally able to make it to the battle and this war has definitely reached a new stage.
My Hero Academia Season 7, Episode #13 Reveals the Battle Between Deku and Shigaraki
Deku is horrified by what Shigaraki did.
Episode 13 of season 7, titled “A Chain of Events, Across the Ages,” will focus on Deku, now that he has arrived at Coffin in the Sky, where Shigaraki is fighting. Deku will see the destruction he has caused, and how pathetic the other heroes look – especially Bakugo, who appears to be dead on the ground. If anything could shake Deku’s focus and control at this point, it would be Bakugo; Deku will certainly blame himself for not getting here in time, but there’s no time for self-pity when a dangerous enemy like Shigaraki is still active and as strong as ever. Deku will need to get his head in the game and start fighting immediately if the heroes want to stand a chance.
The preview for the next episode also shows a flashback to All for One's early reign over the world, with All for One holding someone, who appears to be the second One for All User, by the neck, threatening him. It will be interesting to see more of the period in which All for One reigned supreme, and how those who initially opposed him did so. The ending teases the reveal of One for All's final Quirk, so this episode is sure to be one that fans will love. My Hero Academia won't want to miss out.
