Just when Shigaraki thought he had won over Star and Stripe, Kathleen Bate had a major trick up her sleeve. She imposed a rule on her power to destroy all the other Quirks inside the body of its new holder. In this case, it was Shigaraki, and the preview for My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 3, titled Enemy <Villain>, shows the villain and his master, All For One, preparing for their next move.
You can see the trailer below:
The My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 3 trailer begins with Koji Koda, Hanta Sero, Ochaco Uraraka, Tsuyu Asui, Tenya Iida, Katsuki Bakugo, and, of course, Deku continuing their training to prepare themselves for the final battle against the villains. It also gives a glimpse of the enemies in their hideout, with Shigaraki still reeling from the attack of Star and Stripe’s Quirk. Himiko Toga and Spinner are also in the scene, looking at Shigaraki as he cries out.
This group will never be complete without All For One. The sadistic antagonist stands beside his throne and looks at Shigaraki. Dabi also appears, seemingly talking to All For One. It seems that these two are crafting their evil plans. The trailer ends with a pair of mysterious gloves and three shadows in the forest.
Alternatively, the stills for My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 3 features the villain, with Shigaraki lying on the floor while being watched by All For One, Himiko, and Spinner. Mina Ashido and Kyoka Jiro join the heroes’ training as they prepare to battle the enemies. Bakugo unleashes his strength over the sky while Shoto Todorki is surrounded by his Half-Cold Half-Hot Quirk.
Uraraka and Asui are seen talking to each other while Denki Kaminari and Minoru Mineta are watching them. Deku looks surprised and afraid in the middle of the forest. Dabi will also appear in the next episode, joining the villains in their hideout. For the last still, All For One looks happy as they prepare to face the heroes.

What to Expect from My Hero Academia Season 7 Episode 3
Though Shigaraki has stolen Star and Stripe’s powerful Quirk, New Order, it destroys the other Quirks in his body, ending up losing more powers. However, it looks like All For One doesn’t mind, and he and Shigaraki are preparing for their next move. Alternatively, there’s a traitor in Hero Society, and it disrupts their plans.
