   Summary

   Kurogiri survives the final battle. His breakthrough on the battlefield had given people a renewed hope that Shirakumo could be restored at least in part to who he was. Through medical treatment and help from Mic and Aizawa, he is able to regain memories of who Shirakumo was. The issue is that if he wants to become Shirakumo again, he would have to give up everything he built as Kurogiri. Is it worth giving up the life he built and the child he cared for to fight for a life that no longer feels like his?

   or

   Kurogiri has to figure out how to balance the life he once lived and the friends he once loved against the relationship he built with Shigaraki
