Perhaps an old enemy of Deku who has a grudge against him. This antagonist might have found a way to use a powerful artifact or quirk to make Deku lose his memory. Their goal could be to break Deku's spirit and make him give up on being a hero. They might also try to turn Deku's friends against him while he's in his vulnerable state.
It could be a new villain who has the power to manipulate memories. This villain might target Deku specifically because he sees Deku as a threat to his plans. He wants to erase Deku's memory so that he can't interfere with his evil schemes in the hero world.
There could be a group of villains working together. One of them has the ability to erase memories, and the others see the opportunity to use Deku's memory loss to their advantage. They might try to make Deku believe that he was one of them all along, and persuade him to use his powers for evil. This would create a really interesting conflict as Deku has to fight against false memories and the influence of these villains.
