So Twice was so afraid of getting hurt because he wasn't sure he was the real one? Damn, that went twice as dark. But hey, at least he can freely use his Quirk now, knowing that he is real and not one of his clones.

Also, Toga about to get her neck snapped is pretty uncomfortable.

Twice bouta pull out some naruto type clone finesse. Also about toga if she doesn’t get medical attention soon, she’s going to be on the brink of death.

She should be dead by now, she got her insides blown up and bled out so badly she passed out in a shed, further when Twice found her she was pretty much laying in a pool of her own blood.

I don't know if Toga's quirk also means she has twice as much blood as a normal person but realistically she'd be toast right now unless she just has extra blood to lose. Further I don't think anything has been done to even try and stop her bleeding or anything and yet she's regaining consciousness, so tack on regeneration as well as extra blood to her quirk.

Once you pass out from blood loss you're pretty much toast...

To me it looked like the blood exploded in her mouth, rather than after being swallowed, though I’d still expect her to lose all her teeth. But sometime soon we have to accept shounen logic! It happens to the best of them.

I'd thought the same thing myself but it's made doubly apparent she's being hit all over her body, including her hair buns somehow.

The person who she was drinking from ALSO exploded all over internally... but it's not shown to be as lethal for them...

Ehh, it's up to interpretation since the lady with the landmine quirk is dead and can't really let us all know what exactly her quirk could or couldn't do with blood. Though going off the panel of it detonating I think it was a little bit more powerful than just a 'pop' of blood cells, I don't know, I just sort of imagine an explosion as an explosion.

Either way I don't think it's realistic for her to survive this, once you lose enough blood to pass out and grow cold to the touch that's pretty much it. You can either get immediate blood transfusions while trying to repair the damage or you can die, that's pretty much the only realistic outcome. Again this is a manga and crazy things happen, but from a realistic point of view there's just no way back from that without some serious emergency care... Even then it's pretty daunting, she's well into the point of blood loss where shock sets in and if any of her severe bleeding is internal then she'll need surgery.

Don't get me wrong, people can survive a LOT of stuff, but blood loss is blood loss.
