This article contains spoilers from My Hero Academia’s Epilogue.
Summary
- Deku sought Ochaco out to spend more time together, signaling a romantic interest.
- Toga pushed Ochaco further towards Deku, leading to them finally holding hands.
- Horikoshi confirms in Chapter 431 that Deku and Ochaco are dating, despite some fan doubt.
Fans of “My Hero Academia” were disappointed when Horikoshi didn’t provide a definitive resolution to Deku’s romantic storyline with Ochaco Uraraka at the end of the series. But, in the epilogue chapter, or My Hero Academia Chapter 431, he made up for it.
In this additional chapter from “My Hero Academia” Volume 42, we find ourselves eight years after the end of the Final War, catching up with all the hero students. This is where Kōhei Horikoshi definitively revealed to the readers that Deku and Ochaco were in a relationship. However, some fans still harbored uncertainties about the events depicted in “My Hero Academia’s” Epilogue. Recently, Horikoshi has reemphasized their relationship, causing delight among certain fans, but also stirring dissatisfaction in others.
How Deku and Ochaco Ended Up Together In My Hero Academia
- Deku Wanted To Spend More Time With Ochaco
- Toga Nudged Ochaco Further
In the anime “My Hero Academia”, it’s been clear since the beginning that Deku and Ochaco have feelings for each other, a fact well-known among fans. Fans have eagerly anticipated their romantic conclusion throughout the series. However, in Chapter 430 of “My Hero Academia”, no significant advancements were made regarding their relationship. Despite this, the chapter did provide some resolution and improvement after Shoto Todoroki’s promotion to the #2 hero position in Japan, which brought Deku and Ochaco closer together, allowing them to spend quality time with each other.
In simpler terms, after Bakugo’s words influenced him, Deku approached Uraraka Uzumaki (Ochaco) and expressed a desire to spend more time with her, indicating his feelings for her. Reciprocating these feelings, Ochaco agreed, and the two shared a significant moment by holding hands, both of them blushing in the process. This event seems to signal the progression of their relationship, and while Horikoshi usually avoids explicit labeling due to fans’ preferences, this instance appears to be a clear step forward in their bond.

Horikoshi Asks Fans To Read Volume 42 Once Again
Well, I suppose you could say they have, but it’s more about the feelings they hold deep within their hearts rather than explicitly stating them verbally.
Question: Did Ochako finally confess her feelings to Deku?
Horikoshi: Please read Manga Volume 42 and use your own imagination for that answer.
In the manga, it’s evident that Horikoshi was taken aback by the question, as it’s been established in Volume 42 that Deku and Ochaco have openly expressed their feelings for each other and are now in a relationship. However, Horikoshi encourages fans to revisit Volume 42 and use their imaginations, subtly hinting that they may already know the answer – implying that Deku and Ochaco are indeed a couple.
I’m absolutely thrilled to share that the latest installment, My Hero Academia Volume 42, has just hit shelves in Japan! If you can’t wait to get your hands on it, mark your calendars for 2025 when the English version is set to be released. In the meantime, quench your thirst for this action-packed series by diving into it on Manga Plus and the Shonen Jump apps!
