"When I grow up, I'm gonna be a proper swordsman. One with clothes."
I guess maybe it's that Toga was talking the entire time during her match with Uraraka? No element of surprise, very little concentration -- even worse that she thinks Uraraka and Tsuyu are cute, so she couldn't stop yammering on and trying to call them by pet names and talk about love instead of doing her friggin' job. Here, she had the initiative and Lock/Aizawa are both kind of drab older men, so she just kind of stabs them.

Didn't she materialize into her clothes when the reveal happened after the end of the license exam?

Maybe her blood-draining murder-schoolgirl loadout is designed to shapeshift with her?

Another possibility for why Uraraka got the better of Toga while she's giving Aizawa trouble here: She seems like the type to play with people, and might have underestimated Uraraka. Additionally, I'd be willing to bet her focus is the hit-and-run. In a straight one on one, Aizawa would win, but tired as he is and with the environment favoring Toga...Well, you see why they're in this spot.

Or it's a manga and levels of strength and skill are inconsistent, I dunno.

It's the former. She was all smiles and happy eyes with Uravity and Froppy, happy to chat and play. She gives Eraserhead the death glare here for interrupt her splooshing over Deku remembering her name.

Being a murderous shapeshifting love-maniac certainly makes her an interesting character, even if she's a creepy nudist psychopathic yandere who makes me kinda uncomfortable.

The particulars of Toga's love-mania -- i.e. "When I love someone, I want to become them" -- and the fact that she appears to be at least somewhat correct about the nature of love (for some cases, at least) make her one of the most disturbing (and most fun) villains to me.

Also, I like her design. She always looks like she's been trying to bite through an unpeeled lemon and only partially succeeding, but is also really jazzed about it.

I hope Uraraka gets to fight Toga again this arc because their like 3 page fight back during the camp was honestly pretty lame.

I really like how prominent her wisdom teeth are, since she drinks blood and all. Or maybe they're actual fangs to make it easier.

She took off her clothes... then shapeshifted into herself wearing clothes. Guess it makes sense if she doesn't want every person she transforms into to be dressed as a schoolgirl.

Shocked I tell you
Should be noted that Toga actully came out on top with her fight with Ochaco. And after being grounded stabbed her and started draining her blood. She then instantly slipped out of Ochaco's hold in order to retreat from the reinforcements.

The technical name is canine teeth. If you look closely at page 13, you can see four diagonal lines on the bottom outline of her teeth for the incisors between.

Very healthy kid. Glass of warm milk and a good 20 or so minutes of stretching before bed. Keeps him sleeping soundly throughout the night with no issues.
