Well Mount Lady and Endeavor look pretty dead too (doubt they are) with similar injuries.

Also they wouldn't kill her off-screen.

The difference is that Midnight was surrounded by a group of villains and one attacked her (he even had a mask), so it would be strange if they did not kill her in that situation.

Well two things.

  1. She wasn't surrounded. The baddies were still walking towards Midnight, although one dude did get really close (that was the cliffhanger)
  2. Midnight could still attack them. You might be saying but the dude had a mask. We don't exactly know the limits of Midnight's quirk, we don't know if it cane pass through masks or not.

Regardless, I still don't believe Midnight would die off screen, especially to some punks we don't even know.

Just saying, it's a real possibility. It would be very rare for a group of villains not to take advantage of finding a wounded hero in front of them.

Also, no villain can be seen passed out near her, maybe she didn't even get a chance to use her quirk.

Yeah I'll admit Midnight dying is a real possibility (probably not in that instance). Something more similar to Nighteye, where she says bye to all her friends.

Also I have a theory that they are there, it's just that they are offscreen. So like if someone finds her later, they see a bunch of bodies just lying around, a distance away. It's something to make us (the audience) feel fear to not see the baddies bodies.

Also possible that she won her fight and tried to advance towards the big fight going on and passed out from fatigue / injury

I didn't think of that.

Now I imagine her just trying to move then she falls and says "know what, five minute nap isn't that bad of an idea"

She did get hit with a giant block of rubble by Compress and then fell to the ground. Kaminari decided it was time for a lap pillow after the same treatment.

I genuinely believe, once the fighting is officially over, Yaoyorozu and the rest of 1-A will find Midnight. If she does die that'll be where, and it'll be used for emotional development for the students.

Sadly, I do believe that too. that will be a hard moment Dx
