[00:06] ---
    That's mean, Kacchan.
[00:08] ---
    Can't you see he's crying?
[00:10] ---
    If you keep going, I-I-I'll
    never forgive you!
[00:18] ---
    Even though you're Quirkless...
[00:21] ---
    ...you're pretending to be a hero, Deku?
[00:38] ---
    All men are not created equal.
[00:46] ---
    This was the reality I learned
    about society at the young age of four.
[00:52] ---
    And that was my first and last setback.
[01:11] ---
    "Izuku Midoriya"
SIGN    "Tatooin Station"
[01:19] ---
    That's a huge villain!
[02:55] ---
    It all began in China, in Qingqing City.
[02:59] ---
    There was news that a
    baby that gave off light was born.
[03:02] ---
    "Papa"
[03:05] ---
    Ever since then, superpowers
    were discovered in various places,
[03:08] ---
    and time passed without
    the cause being identified.
[03:12] ---
    Before we knew it,
    the supernatural became normal,
[03:15] ---
    and dreams became reality.
[03:19] ---
    The world has become a superhuman society,
[03:21] ---
    and about 80% of the world's population
    now has some kind of special trait.
[03:26] ---
    In this world swirling with chaos,
[03:28] ---
    the profession that everyone once dreamed
    about and admired came into the limelight.
[03:39] ---
    That profession is...
[03:49] ---
    Oh, it's Death Arms!
[03:51] ---
    He carries out justice through
    his great physical strength--
[03:53] ---
    The Punching Hero!
[03:59] ---
    Everyone, this is dangerous.
    Stay back, stay back!
[04:03] ---
    The rescue specialist,
    Backdraft, is here, too!
[04:09] ---
    But man, turning into
    a monster's an amazing Quirk.
[04:13] ---
    What did he do?
[04:14] ---
    He stole someone's bag and
    went out of control when he was cornered.
[04:18] ---
    A Quirk like that, and he's a bag snatcher?
[04:20] ---
    I'm sorry, the train's...
[04:23] ---
    Yes, I don't know what time
    I will make it into work...
[04:27] ---
    You can do it, Kamui!
[04:35] ---
    Get away!
[04:39] ---
    Who's fighting?
[04:45] ---
    Kamui Woods!
[04:50] ---
    The young and talented rising star!
[04:53] ---
    You were the one asking,
    but you gave a perfect commentary, kid.
[04:56] ---
    You're a fanboy, aren't you?
[04:57] ---
    Uh, well...
[05:15] ---
    Illegal use of powers during rush hour
    and robbery resulting in bodily injury.
[05:20] ---
    You are the incarnation of evil.
[05:25] ---
    Oh, here it comes!
[05:26] ---
    Show us something flashy, Tree-Man!
[05:29] ---
    Pre-emptive...
[05:31] ---
    ...Binding...
[05:32] ---
    ...Lacquered Chain Prison!
[05:35] ---
    Canyon Cannon!
[05:44] ---
    Huh?
[05:50] ---
    Here it is, here it is,
    here it is, here it is.
[05:53] ---
    Today is the day of my debut!
[05:56] ---
    My name is Mt. Lady.
[05:59] ---
    A pleasure to make your ass-quaintance.
[06:01] ---
    Here it is, here it is,
    here it is, here it is.
[06:06] ---
    Sh-She's getting the credit...
[06:09] ---
    Along with the superpowers
    came an explosive increase in crime.
[06:14] ---
    As the country was stuck in the
    slow progress of drastic law reforms,
[06:17] ---
    courageous people started performing
    heroic acts from out of comic books.
[06:23] ---
    Guarding against superpowers
    and defending against evil.
[06:26] ---
    Heroes were soon accepted by the public,
[06:30] ---
    and it was established
    as an official position.
[06:33] ---
    Based on their performance,
    they are paid by the government
[06:38] ---
    and gain renown among the masses.
[06:43] ---
    Gigantification, huh?
[06:44] ---
    She looks like she'll be popular,
    and it's an amazing Quirk,
[06:47] ---
    but thinking about the damage to
    the city that'll go hand in hand with that,
[06:49] ---
    its use might be limited?
[06:52] ---
    No, but whether or
    not she can control the size...
[06:54] ---
    Hey wait, you're taking notes?
    You wanna be a hero?
[06:57] ---
    That's great! You can do it!
[07:01] ---
    Yes! I'll do my best!
[07:03] ---
    "Episode 1: Izuku Midoriya: Origin"
SIGN    "Aldera Junior High"
[07:10] ---
    Since you're all third years, it's time
    for you to think seriously about your future.
[07:15] ---
    I'll pass out handouts
    for your future plans now, but...
[07:19] ---
    ...you're all...
[07:24] ---
    ...pretty much planning to
    go into the hero course, right?
[07:27] ---
    Yes!
[07:28] ---
    Yes, yes, you all have wonderful Quirks!
[07:31] ---
    But using your powers
    at school is against the rules!
[07:35] ---
    Teach!
[07:36] ---
    Don't lump us all in the same group.
[07:39] ---
    I'm not gonna be stuck at the
    bottom with the rest of these rejects!
[07:44] ---
    "Katsuki Bakugo"
[07:47] ---
    That was uncalled for, Katsuki!
[07:48] ---
    Yeah, yeah!
[07:50] ---
    You all should shut up
    like the extras you are!
[07:51] ---
    Oh, if I remember correctly,
    you want to go to U.A. High, right, Bakugo?
[07:56] ---
    U.A.? That national school?!
[07:58] ---
    It was in the top 0.2% this year, you know!
[08:00] ---
    Their acceptance rate's
    always really low, too!
[08:02] ---
    That's exactly why you guys are just extras!
[08:06] ---
    I aced the mock test!
[08:08] ---
    I'm the only one at this school
    who could possibly get into U.A.
[08:11] ---
    I'll definitely surpass All Might
    and become the top hero!
[08:18] ---
    My name'll be inscribed
    on the list of top earners!
[08:21] ---
    Oh yeah, Midoriya wanted
    to go to U.A., too, right?
[08:29] ---
    Huh? Midoriya? No way!
[08:31] ---
    You can't get into the
    hero course just by studying!
[08:34] ---
    Th-They got rid of that rule!
[08:37] ---
    There's just no precedent...
[08:41] ---
    Hey, Deku!
[08:43] ---
    You're below the rejects! You're Quirkless!
[08:47] ---
    How can you even stand
    in the same ring as me?
[08:50] ---
    No, wait, Kacchan!
[08:52] ---
    It's not like I'm trying to
    compete with you or anything!
[08:55] ---
    Believe me!
[08:58] ---
    It's just that it's been
    my goal ever since I was little.
[09:01] ---
    And well...
[09:03] ---
    ...I won't know unless I try...
[09:05] ---
    Whaddaya mean, unless you try?!
[09:08] ---
    Are you taking the test for fun?!
[09:11] ---
    What the hell can you do?
[09:13] ---
    You're Quirkless!
[09:19] ---
    "The same city"
[09:24] ---
    Thief!
[09:25] ---
    Someone!
[09:27] ---
    Catch me if you can!
[09:32] ---
    Huh? There's no hero around.
[09:34] ---
    Normally someone would come right away.
[09:37] ---
    This guy's taking advantage
    of the chaos from this morning.
[09:40] ---
    There are tons of people around who
    don't know what to do with their Quirks.
[09:43] ---
    There's no end to them.
[09:46] ---
    There is an end.
[09:52] ---
    Why?
[09:57] ---
    Because I am here!
[10:10] ---
    Hey, let's go to karaoke!
[10:12] ---
    Sure, nothing better to do.
[10:14] ---
    The incident this morning
    is all over the headlines!
[10:18] ---
    I wanna hurry up and go home
    so I can write it down in my notebook.
[10:24] ---
    We're not done talking yet, Deku.
[10:27] ---
    Katsuki, what's that?
SIGN    "Hero Analysis for the Future"
[10:30] ---
    Huh? "Hero Analysis for the Future"?
[10:34] ---
    Seriously?
[10:36] ---
    Midoriya...
[10:38] ---
    I-It's fine, isn't it? Give it back!
[10:43] ---
    That's mean...
[10:45] ---
    What?!
[10:48] ---
    Most top first-string heroes have
    stories about them from their school days.
[10:53] ---
    I want the shine of being able to be
    called the only student to make it into U.A.
[10:59] ---
    from this mediocre city junior high school.
[11:01] ---
    I mean, I'm a perfectionist.
[11:05] ---
    He's so petty.
[11:07] ---
    So anyway,
[11:11] ---
    don't apply to U.A., nerd.
[11:19] ---
    Come on, you could at
    least say something back.
[11:22] ---
    Don't say that. He's pathetic.
    He still can't face reality.
[11:30] ---
    If you wanna be a hero that badly,
    there's a quick way to do it.
[11:34] ---
    Believe that you'll be born
    with a Quirk in your next life
[11:37] ---
    and take a last chance dive off the roof!
[11:44] ---
    What?
[11:54] ---
    Idiot! If I really jumped, that would
    mean you instigated a suicide!
[11:58] ---
    Think before you speak!
[12:02] ---
    That's not fish food, stupid.
[12:05] ---
    That's my notebook...
[12:08] ---
    Stupid...
[12:12] ---
    "Hero Analysis for the Future"
[12:13] ---
    Stupid bastard...
[12:17] ---
    Mom!
[12:21] ---
    Mom, the computer!
[12:23] ---
    Again?
[12:26] ---
    Hurry!
[12:28] ---
    Jeez, you've probably added
    ten thousand views just by yourself, Izuku.
[12:33] ---
    It's too scary for me. I can't watch it.
[12:37] ---
    That was an old video.
[12:40] ---
    A disaster that happened a long time ago.
[12:42] ---
    The video of a hero
    that debuted right after that.
[12:47] ---
    Can you see that?
    He's already saved a hundred people!
[12:51] ---
    That's crazy! It hasn't
    even been ten minutes!
[12:54] ---
    That's crazy!
[13:04] ---
    He's laughing!
[13:13] ---
    It's fine now. Why?
[13:21] ---
    Because I am here.
[13:29] ---
    He's so cool!
[13:32] ---
    Once I get my Quirk, I
    wanna be like him, too!
[13:42] ---
    You should probably give it up.
[13:47] ---
    That's... Is something
    wrong with him after all?
[13:51] ---
    Most of the other kindergarteners'
    Quirks have already manifested...
[13:53] ---
    He's the only one...
[13:55] ---
    Excuse me, but you're
    fourth generation, right, ma'am?
[13:59] ---
    May I ask about your Quirk?
[14:00] ---
    Yes, of course.
[14:02] ---
    I can pull small objects to me.
[14:06] ---
    My husband can breathe fire.
[14:08] ---
    Normally, by age four, he would
    have manifested one of those Quirks,
[14:13] ---
    or some combination of the two.
[14:16] ---
    In the past, when the superpowers
    first started showing up,
[14:18] ---
    the results of an early
    research study were published.
[14:21] ---
    It became common practice to see if
    the pinky toe was missing a joint or not.
[14:25] ---
    When parts of the body aren't used,
    they're deemed unnecessary.
[14:29] ---
    People who didn't have the joint
    were thought to be a newly evolved form.
[14:34] ---
    You can see by looking at this x-ray
[14:36] ---
    that Izuku has two joints.
[14:41] ---
    It's unusual to see that these days,
[14:43] ---
    but that means he has no Quirk.
[14:53] ---
    Can you see that?
[14:54] ---
    He's already saved a hundred people!
[14:56] ---
    That's crazy! It hasn't
    even been ten minutes!
[14:59] ---
    That's crazy!
[15:02] ---
    He's laughing!
[15:04] ---
    It's fine now. Why?
[15:07] ---
    Because I am here.
[15:11] ---
    Mom...
[15:14] ---
    He saves everyone with a smile,
    no matter what trouble they're in...
[15:20] ---
    He's such a cool hero...
[15:32] ---
    Can I... be a hero, too?
[15:41] ---
    I'm sorry, Izuku!
[15:43] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
[15:49] ---
    No, that's not it. That's not it, Mom.
[15:54] ---
    What I wanted you to say back then was...
SIGN    "Watch Your Head"
[16:05] ---
    You decided back then, didn't you?
[16:08] ---
    That's right. Don't worry
    about what other people think!
[16:11] ---
    Hold your head up high and plunge forward!
[16:28] ---
    A villain?!
[16:31] ---
    A medium-sized invisibility cloak...
[16:41] ---
    Don't worry. I'm just going
    to take over your body.
[16:45] ---
    Calm down.
[16:46] ---
    It'll only hurt for about 45 seconds.
[16:49] ---
    You'll feel better soon.
[16:52] ---
    I can't... breathe...
[16:55] ---
    You can't grab me. I'm fluid!
[16:59] ---
    Thanks for your help. You're my hero.
[17:04] ---
    I didn't think that had come to this city.
[17:10] ---
    My body...
[17:11] ---
    There's no strength...
[17:15] ---
    I'm dying... Am I dying?
[17:22] ---
    I'm dying...
[17:24] ---
    Somebody... Somebody...!
[17:29] ---
    No...!
[17:35] ---
    It's all right now, young man.
[17:44] ---
    I am here!
[17:56] ---
    Texas Smash!
[18:08] ---
    Wind pressure...?!
[18:27] ---
    All... Migh...
[18:35] ---
    Hey!
[18:36] ---
    Hey! He--
[18:39] ---
    Oh, good!
[18:45] ---
    I'm glad you're okay!
[18:47] ---
    Sorry 'bout getting you
    caught up in my villain fighting.
[18:52] ---
    I don't usually make mistakes like this,
[18:55] ---
    but I was in high spirits
    on my day off in a new place.
[19:02] ---
    But, you were a big help. Thanks!
[19:06] ---
    I captured him safely!
[19:10] ---
    The number one hero... All Might...
[19:14] ---
    H-He's the real thing...
[19:16] ---
    He looks completely different in person!
[19:22] ---
    Oh, right! An a-autograph! Where should I--?
[19:26] ---
    In that notebook--
[19:28] ---
    He already did!
[19:31] ---
    Th-Thank you very much!
[19:33] ---
    It'll be an heirloom! A family treasure!
[19:36] ---
    Okay!
[19:38] ---
    Well, I need take this guy to the police.
[19:41] ---
    See you again on the
    other side of the screen!
[19:45] ---
    Wait, already?
[19:47] ---
    Pros are constantly
    fighting enemies and time.
[19:52] ---
    Wait...
[19:53] ---
    There are still... things I want to ask...
[19:58] ---
    Well then,
[20:01] ---
    I'm counting on your continued support!
[20:06] ---
    Wait.
[20:09] ---
    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
[20:12] ---
    Let go of me! Your fanaticism is too much!
[20:14] ---
    If I... let go now... I'll... I'll die...!
[20:19] ---
    That's true.
[20:19] ---
    I... have... a lot of things...
    I want to ask you directly!
[20:27] ---
    Okay, okay! I get it,
    so close your eyes and mouth!
[20:43] ---
    Shit.
[20:57] ---
    Th-That was scary...
[20:59] ---
    Good grief. If you talk to the people
    downstairs, I'm sure they'll let you down.
[21:04] ---
    I seriously am outta time,
    so I really must go.
[21:08] ---
    Wait! Um...
[21:09] ---
    No! I will not wait!
[21:11] ---
    But--
[21:12] ---
    You should probably give it up.
[21:17] ---
    I'm sorry, Izuku!
[21:19] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
[21:22] ---
    What the hell can you do?
[21:24] ---
    You're Quirkless!
[21:32] ---
    That might be true...
[21:38] ---
    But even so, I...
[21:50] ---
    Even if I don't have a Quirk,
    can I become a hero?
[21:56] ---
    Can even someone without a Quirk be like you?
[22:13] ---
    My meeting with All Might... This miracle...
[22:18] ---
    At the time, I couldn't even imagine
[22:24] ---
    how much it would change my fate.
[24:00] ---
    "Next time"
[24:00] ---
    I am here for the next episode preview!
[24:04] ---
    What? The villain I caught escaped?
[24:08] ---
    It took a boy hostage
    and is going wild around town?
[24:11] ---
    But I can't use my powers for much longer.
[24:15] ---
    You're pathetic, All Might!
[24:18] ---
    Is there another hero around?
[24:21] ---
    Next time, "What It Takes to Be a Hero"!
[24:23] ---
    Pros are always risking their lives!
[24:26] ---
    Go beyond!
