Your gateway to endless inspiration
I think some of you should try looking at chapter 431 with a more open point of view instead of relying on everyone's negative takes to explain it for you, because it's really not as bad as people are making it out to be, and I say this as someone who has a lot of problems with it.
The leakers purposefully spread info about the chapter in a way to garner the most chaos and to upset certain groups and rile up others. Leaks always lead to poor translations, misinterpretations, and poor opinions formed on both minimal information and high emotions. Leakers do what they do for clout and for attention, and will do whatever will get them the most attention. They've never respected the wishes of the fans and they've done massive damage to the story's reception overall -- not just this chapter.
There are a lot of good elements to 431 and I truly think it's worth reading, even if you don't want to see it as a "canon" chapter! Some of the things I really loved about it is that Katsuki and Izuku are on really friendly terms with each other and -- at least to me -- it's implied that they're very close and have been close for awhile! Deku is so much more comfortable around him and mouthing off to him and they still bicker and act like rivals. I also really like that we learn Deku isn't just teaching at UA, he goes to other schools too to give lectures and stuff to younger kids. I think this is part of the reason he declined Bakugou's offer, he finds a lot of satisfaction and value in the work he's doing outside of being a pro again and doesn't want to give that up. Also I really love that we get to see Todoroki happy and content and smiling, and that he finds joy in stuff besides hero work, he really deserves that :')
If you'd like to see translations for the chapter, pikahlua has rough/literal translations for 431 which can be found here and here. I feel like they always provide a lot of good insight on the mha chapters!
