Some fans see his kidnapping as a weak plot point, but I disagree. It's essential for humbling him. His role changes from an internal antagonist to a symbol of the class's vulnerability. The fact that the whole hero society mobilizes to save one student—him—forces him to see his own value through others' eyes. He's not a lone wolf; he's part of a system that risks everything for one member. That communal responsibility is a new concept for Bakugo. Volume 15 is where that lesson is brutally administered.

The placement is straightforward: it's after Volume 12 and before Volume 14. But thematically, it's the culmination of the students' first real step into the professional world. The class isn't just reacting to villain attacks anymore; they're actively being tested on their ability to handle civilian rescue and complex combat scenarios. It's a satisfying capstone to their growth since the start of the series.

I’m fascinated by the role of Midoriya’s mother in this. Think about it: her son’s lifelong tormentor, who she’s seen cause him so much pain, is now intrinsically linked to his dangerous destiny. Does she know about the rooftop? How would she feel about this forced partnership? The series doesn’t explore it, but it’s a fascinating, unsettling layer.
For Deku, forging this bond with Bakugo might feel like a necessity of his hero’s path. For Inko, it might look like her son being forced to rely on his abuser. The change in their relationship isn’t happening in a vacuum, and an outside perspective, especially a maternal one, would likely be far more conflicted and worried than the narrative or the fans are. It adds a dose of necessary realism to the ‘shared trauma brings us together’ trope.

Honestly, I read it more as Bakugo's volume. Midoriya gets cool moments, sure, but the emotional core is Bakugo's quiet breakdown. The way he just sits there after failing, completely withdrawn... that's a side of him we hadn't seen. It's the beginning of his humility, which is the essential ingredient for any future relationship with Midoriya. Deku doesn't need to change how he sees Bakugo yet; he still idealizes him in a way. The development is almost entirely on the blonde bomber's side, and it's painful, slow, and beautifully written.

Honestly, I just reread it last week and paid extra attention to him. The frustration is so palpable. He's used to being the best naturally, but now he's hit a wall where natural talent isn't enough. He needs technique, restraint, cooperation—things that go against his entire being. Watching him struggle with that is like watching a wild animal try to solve a puzzle. It's equal parts compelling and painful.
He doesn't have the vocabulary for self-doubt, so it all comes out as louder anger. But you can tell the anger is different. It's not just arrogance; it's the fury of someone who doesn't understand why their usual tools are failing. That confusion is new, and it's the engine for any future change.

His development is painfully slow, which is why it feels real. Volume 14 isn't where he becomes a good teammate. It's where he starts to understand he needs to be one. The remedial classes are a massive blow to his pride. He's literally separated from the main group because he failed a core aspect of heroism. For someone who defines himself by winning, being labeled a 'failure' in a public test is a unique kind of hell. He doesn't accept it gracefully, but he does accept the re-training. That tiny concession—showing up and participating—is a massive step for him.

Man, that volume stressed me out. Seeing our green bean like that... rough.

Alright, let's get into it. Volume 13 covers chapters 115 through 123 of the main manga. It kicks off with the provisional license exam's big team battles and goes all the way through Deku's big climactic moment against that one guy with the wind powers. The pacing here is just fantastic—it’s pure, high-stakes exam action without any filler. I'd say it's one of the best tournament-style arcs in the series, period.
You get some real standout character moments for everyone in Class 1-A, especially Deku and Bakugo's forced partnership. The art in the later chapters of this volume is absolutely bonkers good. If you're collecting the physical volumes, this one is a must-have just for how cleanly it wraps up that entire arc.

Watching it weekly as it aired was a trip. The fandom debates after every episode where Bakugou did something even slightly decent were endless. 'Is he redeemed yet?' 'No, he's still a jerk!' The rivalry evolving in real-time split the community for years.

It sets up his hero name dilemma perfectly. Later, when he struggles to choose a name, it’s because of this exact conflict. What does being a hero mean to him? Is it just winning? Volume 8 proves that answer is insufficient. So while he doesn’t find a new answer here, the volume dismantles his old one, creating the need for a new identity. That’s foundational development.
