I know there are several versions of fan translations for this part, with the official using the word “bolster” for “補完する”, but the definition of this word in Japanese is “to fill in an incomplete part, and make it complete.”

Once again English is not my native language, so when I read “bolster” the first thing that came to my mind was this round thing we hug when we sleep (I think it’s a Southeast asian things) and I was like YEAH, kacchan is Deku’s bolster 😭✊

And this is what the JP fandom went crazy about, because apparently this is how Todoroki’s smile looked like in Deku’s mind

He was gone for almost 4 months and the first word he said was:
クソがっ (kuso ga)
It means “shit” btw 😌

A lot of you might know this already but the chapter title for 318 in Japanese is ヤミクモ (yamikumo),, which means “dark cloud”, which is the name of Deku’s prototype.
