Predictions
With the explosive final panel of the last chapter, we can safely assume that My Hero Academia Chapter 388 will feature a reunion between the Todoroki family and will be delving deep into their family dynamic.
Dabi is currently in a very unstable mental state and his resentment towards his family is as explosive as his powers.
As of yet in the manga, Dabi has expressed his deep anger and resentment towards Endeavor who had pushed him past his limit in childhood before abandoning him, at least in Dabi’s eyes.
In the villain’s flashback, his mother had been strangely passive in his upbringing and it has obviously cultivated some deep-rooted hatred in the young man’s unstable mind.
Dabi or Touya’s reunion with his mother is guaranteed to be an emotional affair as Rei is evidently remorseful of her eldest son’s condition and her role in it. As a mother, she loves him and is capable of forgiving his mistakes.
It’s very possible that the only way Dabi will find his inner Touya again will be through Rei’s love and acceptance. The appearance of his mother’s Quirk also speaks of their instinctive bond.
On the other hand, Rei also has a tumultuous past with her husband who had pushed her into a mental breakage with his treatment of her and their children.
But she also recognizes the change and remorse in Endeavor who’s prepared to sacrifice himself to correct his wrongdoings. The reunion between the estranged husband and wife will probably finally provide Endeavor with his salvation.
