    "9 days ago"
[00:02] ---
    "Provincial town - Deika City"
[00:04] ---
    It was the prologue to a tragedy...
[00:08] ---
    While we were still unawares,
[00:11] ---
    the seeds of disaster
    were being planted...
[02:28] ---
    You not determined enough or something?
[02:30] ---
    Of course not!
[02:35] ---
    Flashfreeze Heatwave!
[02:40] ---
    Pro-level work just 30 minutes after
    getting their provisional hero licenses!
[02:44] ---
    On today's show, we have
    two students who drove back villains--
[02:48] ---
    from U.A.'s hero course Class 1-A,
    Shoto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugo.
[02:49] ---
    "Shoto Todoroki - Quirk: Half-Cold Half-Hot"
    "Katsuki Bakugo - Quirk: Explosion"
[02:56] ---
    Do the two of you normally
    have fun training together?
[03:00] ---
    Does it look that way to you?
    You should get your eyes or brain checked!
[03:04] ---
    We're friends.
[03:06] ---
    Huh? Don't just say random stuff!
    Since when have we been friends?!
[03:10] ---
    We spent a lot of time together because
    of the supplementary classes, right?
[03:13] ---
    What kind of system is that?
[03:15] ---
    Spending time together
    doesn't mean we're friends!
[03:17] ---
    What system are you talking about?
[03:19] ---
    I don't know! You should
    get your brain checked, too!
[03:22] ---
    "Have a Merry Christmas!"
[03:27] ---
    At the end of December,
[03:29] ---
    with a few days left
    until the end of the second term...
[03:32] ---
    Do the two of you normally
    have fun training together?
[03:37] ---
    We're friends.
[03:38] ---
    You weren't scared?
[03:40] ---
    No, I was able to act without fear
    and according to my training.
[03:44] ---
    "Hanta Sero - Quirk: Tape"
    "Denki Kaminari - Quirk: Electrification"
    "Mina Ashido - Quirk: Acid"
[03:45] ---
    This is a question for Todoroki...
[03:48] ---
    They were interviewed for a whole hour,
[03:50] ---
    and Bakugo's answers weren't used at all!
[03:52] ---
    All you see of him is
    this cut-off part in the corner!
[03:55] ---
    Use my answers...!
[03:57] ---
    "Tsuyu Asui - Quirk: Frog"
    "Ochaco Uraraka - Quirk: Zero Gravity"
[03:57] ---
    They protected him in a sense, huh?
[03:59] ---
    "Kyoka Jiro - Quirk: Earphone Jack"
    "Momo Yaoyorozu - Quirk: Creation"
[04:00] ---
    It's already the third interview, too...
[04:02] ---
    The good rep he got after getting
    his provisional license went poof.
[04:05] ---
    "Izuku Midoriya - Quirk: One For All"
[04:07] ---
    They were newly minted
    but reliable provisional heroes.
[04:10] ---
    "9 Days After the Tragedy in Deika City"
[04:10] ---
    I hope they are able to work
    as pros as soon as possible
[04:15] ---
    to prevent the tragedy in
    Deika City from happening again.
[04:18] ---
    It's been nine days since the incident.
[04:21] ---
    The rioting of just 20 people
[04:23] ---
    drove Deika City to
    destruction in about 50 minutes.
[04:26] ---
    "Tenya Iida - Quirk: Engine"
    "Minoru Mineta - Quirk: Pop Off"
[04:26] ---
    I heard that the destruction in
    Deika City was worse than in Camino,
[04:29] ---
    but because it was less populated,
    there were fewer victims.
[04:32] ---
    This incident seems
    to be a ploy by villains
[04:35] ---
    to lower the public's
    estimation of heroes.
[04:38] ---
    Here's what people had to say--
[04:39] ---
    "Voices from town--"
[04:39] ---
    It's foolish to blame the heroes of Deika.
[04:42] ---
    They should discuss
    relaxing the whole system.
[04:45] ---
    Review the paperwork?
[04:47] ---
    You can only say that in retrospect.
[04:49] ---
    I want the heroes to work harder!
[04:52] ---
    Like, we'll do our best,
    so you do your best, too?
[04:55] ---
    Let's ask our commentator,
    Kuraishisu, what he thinks.
[04:58] ---
    In the past, if there was an incident
    with this many casualties,
[04:58] ---
    "Hero Critic - Aorio Kuraishisu"
[05:02] ---
    everyone would be blaming the heroes.
[05:05] ---
    But right now, I suppose you could
    say we're at a critical juncture in time.
[05:09] ---
    Criticism is turning into encouragement.
[05:13] ---
    Ever since the "Look! Boy," I feel like
    people have changed how they see things.
[05:18] ---
    Look!
[05:20] ---
    Right now, who's the man...
[05:22] ---
    ...risking his life for our sakes?
[05:25] ---
    It's because Endeavor worked hard!
[05:30] ---
    Don't be too optimistic!
[05:31] ---
    "Yuga Aoyama - Quirk: Navel Laser"
    "Eijiro Kirishima - Quirk: Hardening"
    "Rikido Sato - Quirk: Sugar Rush"
[05:32] ---
    Things might be moving
    in a positive direction,
[05:34] ---
    but behind that is a sense
    of urgency from being in danger.
[05:38] ---
    Are the cheers rooting
    for those certain to win
[05:41] ---
    actually prayers for their victory?
[05:45] ---
    Heroes have become
    more about showbiz recently,
[05:45] ---
    "Pro Hero - Midnight - Quirk: Somnambulist"
    "Pro Hero - Mt. Lady - Quirk: Gigantification"
[05:48] ---
    but now, people want them to be
    heroes in the real sense of the word!
[05:51] ---
    Mt. Lady?!
[05:54] ---
    "Pro Hero - Shota Aizawa - Quirk: Erasure"
[05:54] ---
    We've asked her to come
    as a special instructor.
[05:56] ---
    Since you all are getting
    more exposure, too.
[05:59] ---
    Midnight also came along.
[06:01] ---
    I didn't get any more exposure!
[06:03] ---
    Do your best starting next time!
[06:05] ---
    I'm not one to talk,
    but she's the most showbiz one here!
[06:09] ---
    Be quiet!
[06:11] ---
    Today will be a media practicum.
[06:14] ---
    I, Mt. Lady, active hero
    and gorgeous hot commodity,
[06:16] ---
    will teach you how a hero should behave!
[06:21] ---
    I don't know what we're gonna do,
[06:23] ---
    but let's get through this
    with Plus Ultra, guys!
[06:26] ---
    Yeah!
[06:29] ---
    This class will be...
[06:31] ---
    ...practice for a hero interview!
[06:33] ---
    So casual.
[06:35] ---
    Hero Shoto, come here.
[06:37] ---
    Okay.
[06:42] ---
    You were amazing out there, Shoto.
[06:45] ---
    What are you talking about?
[06:46] ---
    Pretend you just finished doing a job!
[06:49] ---
    --Go!
    --Right.
[06:51] ---
    Shoto, what kind of hero
    would you like to be?
[06:54] ---
    A hero that can make
    everyone feel safe when I arrive.
[06:58] ---
    That's wonderful!
[06:59] ---
    If a handsome boy
    like you came to save me,
[07:01] ---
    my heart would start racing, though!
[07:04] ---
    Do you... have heart problems?
[07:07] ---
    Oh dear, what's with this kid?
[07:08] ---
    He's so cute! I want him!
[07:10] ---
    What kind of ultimate moves do you have?
[07:20] ---
    Heaven-Piercing Ice Wall.
[07:22] ---
    It covers a wide area, can stop others,
    and can create a place to stand.
[07:25] ---
    It has a wide range of uses.
[07:27] ---
    Also, I have the rougher
    Flashfreeze Heatwave.
[07:34] ---
    Huh? What about the one he used
    during the battle with Class B?
[07:38] ---
    Oh yeah, Endeavor's...
[07:40] ---
    ...Flashfire Fist!
[07:42] ---
    "Toru Hagakure - Quirk: Invisibility"
[07:42] ---
    Flashfire Fist is my old man's move.
[07:45] ---
    Huh?
[07:46] ---
    Flashfire Fist...
[07:47] ---
    ...Jetburn!
[07:50] ---
    I'm nowhere near his level yet.
[07:56] ---
    I'm going to aim even higher.
[07:59] ---
    I'm not here to say anything
    about your personal issues,
[08:02] ---
    but if you want people to feel safe,
    it might be good to smile.
[08:06] ---
    You'll slay the ladies with your smile!
[08:10] ---
    If I smile... they'll die...?!
[08:12] ---
    That's enough!
[08:13] ---
    "Koji Koda - Quirk: Anivoice"
    "Fumikage Tokoyami - Quirk: Dark Shadow"
[08:14] ---
    We're supposed to show our moves, too?
[08:15] ---
    In the interview.
[08:17] ---
    Oh my, U.A. students.
[08:19] ---
    It's not like everyone knows who you are!
[08:23] ---
    Your ultimate moves are symbols of you!
[08:26] ---
    Let people know what
    you can do through your moves.
[08:29] ---
    For real-time teamwork with other heroes,
[08:31] ---
    warnings against villainous crimes,
[08:34] ---
    and having people trust you
    with their lives...
[08:37] ---
    There's meaning behind why heroes
    yell the names of their moves out loud.
[08:41] ---
    Until recently,
[08:43] ---
    that woman didn't think about anything
    except how she looked on camera.
[08:46] ---
    It's not just Mt. Lady.
[08:50] ---
    Right now, all the heroes
    are being pulled...
[08:54] ---
    ...by the number one hero.
[08:58] ---
    Now, let's keep the interviews coming!
[09:01] ---
    I chose "Ingenium" as my hero name
[09:02] ---
    "Ingenium"
[09:03] ---
    because I wanted to take over what
    my brother, Ingenium, stood for!
[09:07] ---
    I feel the sincerity oozing out from you!
[09:08] ---
    I'm Creati.
[09:09] ---
    "Creati"
[09:10] ---
    With my encyclopedic knowledge,
    you can leave everything to me!
[09:13] ---
    Confidence makes people feel reliable!
[09:15] ---
    I'm Uravity!
[09:16] ---
    "Uravity"
[09:17] ---
    My Quirk's Zero Gravity!
[09:18] ---
    In front of me, everything's weightless!
[09:21] ---
    Being gentle is a skill, too!
[09:24] ---
    Jet-Black Hero: Tsukuyomi.
[09:25] ---
    "Tsukuyomi"
[09:26] ---
    There is no glory for one
    who knows no darkness.
[09:29] ---
    Great! That's a great aura!
[09:31] ---
    Sturdy Hero: Red Riot!
[09:32] ---
    "Red Riot"
[09:33] ---
    No blood flows behind me!
[09:35] ---
    Oh, Boss!
[09:37] ---
    "Tentacole" "Pinky" "Chargebolt" "Tailman"
[09:37] ---
    I'll melt anything! Pinky!
[09:39] ---
    I'll make anything shocking!
[09:41] ---
    I'm Stun Gun Hero: Chargebolt!
[09:43] ---
    Oh, what? I didn't have
    to worry about you guys!
[09:45] ---
    You're better at it than I expected!
[09:48] ---
    I'm not gonna say random stuff like that!
[09:50] ---
    Just shut up and follow me!
[09:53] ---
    You're not as bad in
    an interview by yourself, huh?
[09:55] ---
    I get it now.
    You just don't see eye to eye, right?
[09:58] ---
    With the rest of humanity.
[09:59] ---
    Sorry, Bakugo.
[10:00] ---
    You were completely cut
    because I was there.
[10:02] ---
    Don't think you're so great!
[10:04] ---
    Like someone like you
    could have any influence over me!
[10:08] ---
    I see.
[10:09] ---
    Maybe we should teach Bakugo how
    to avoid the media, like you, Aizawa.
[10:15] ---
    No, there's someone else he should
    be learning from right now.
[10:21] ---
    Deku, right?
[10:23] ---
    I saw what you did!
[10:23] ---
    "Frozen stiff"
[10:25] ---
    I'm... glad...
[10:28] ---
    Really glad...
[10:29] ---
    What did you think about it?
[10:32] ---
    I'm... glad...
[10:35] ---
    When did that guy learn
    to do my Hardening?!
[10:38] ---
    He's too nervous.
[10:39] ---
    Now that I think about it,
[10:40] ---
    he doesn't do things like this much.
[10:43] ---
    Many of your moves seem
    to be based on All Might's.
[10:47] ---
    Do you admire him?
[10:49] ---
    Yes!
[10:50] ---
    So you're loud about this, huh?
[10:52] ---
    "mutter mutter mutter"
[10:52] ---
    But I didn't want to just copy him--
[10:55] ---
    I tried to customize them
    to fit myself better.
[10:58] ---
    For example, with Delaware Smash,
[11:01] ---
    I chose a state that All Might
    didn't name a move after,
[11:04] ---
    and recently, I've incorporated part
    of my training into the move,
[11:07] ---
    --He's talking too much...
    --Delaware Smash: Air Force...
[11:10] ---
    Speaking of which, after his Quirk
    got out of control the other day...
[11:16] ---
    I heard that he made progress,
    but is he okay?
[11:24] ---
    A Quirk that isn't super strength.
[11:27] ---
    One For All's new power...
[11:38] ---
    It really won't come out.
[11:41] ---
    The presence is gone...
[11:45] ---
    In the two weeks since then,
[11:47] ---
    I've been practicing
    visualizing it every day.
[11:51] ---
    It didn't disappear.
[11:53] ---
    That man said to master the power.
[11:57] ---
    It's a power that's waiting for me.
[12:01] ---
    I just put a lock on it,
    but it's still there.
[12:04] ---
    If I put a lock on it,
[12:06] ---
    it means I can choose when
    to use it and when not to use it.
[12:10] ---
    I'm past the phase of not using it.
[12:13] ---
    Now, like how I learned to control
    the percentage of One For All I use,
[12:19] ---
    with just the amount of
    that power that I can use now...
[12:33] ---
    All right!
[12:40] ---
    Just a tiny wisp came out now,
    but it's the first step to controlling it.
[12:43] ---
    Someday, this too--
[12:44] ---
    What was that?
[12:47] ---
    Don't be happy about that little wisp!
[12:55] ---
    Up all night again?
[12:56] ---
    "Pro Hero - All Might - Quirk: One For All"
[12:57] ---
    Principal!
[12:58] ---
    "Pro Hero - Nezu - Quirk: High Specs"
[12:59] ---
    It's bad for your fur if you don't sleep.
[13:01] ---
    Oh, no, I've been sleeping!
[13:03] ---
    Don't worry about me!
[13:04] ---
    You're misunderstanding
    the meaning of "gaunt."
[13:09] ---
    Hm?
[13:10] ---
    Oh...
[13:11] ---
    "Quirks of Past Wielders"
    "Notes for Young Midoriya"
[13:11] ---
    There's not much recorded
    from the early days...
[13:15] ---
    Did you need something?
[13:18] ---
    I have an announcement.
[13:20] ---
    We will be restarting
    the work studies soon.
[13:26] ---
    The hero... work studies...
SIGN    "Affiliation: U.A. High School Hero Class 1-A"
    "Birthday: 1/11"
    "Height: 176 cm" "Blood Type: O" "Likes: Soba (the kind that's not hot)"
SIGN    "Shoto Todoroki" "Quirk: Half-Cold Half-Hot" "He has two Quirks: 'freezing' on his right half and 'flames' on his left half."
SIGN    "Affiliation: U.A. High School Hero Class 1-A"
    "Birthday: 10/16"
    "Height: 170 cm" "Blood Type: O" "Likes: Meat"
SIGN    "Eijiro Kirishima" "Quirk: Hardening" "He can harden his whole body, which can be used for offense or defense."
[13:39] ---
    What is this?
[13:41] ---
    "Pro Hero - Cementos - Quirk: Cement"
[13:41] ---
    To suddenly restart
    the work studies like this...
[13:44] ---
    Principal, you have a chair, don't you?
[13:46] ---
    This is the best place to warm myself.
[13:50] ---
    Originally, we had decided to stop them
    after discussions with the agencies.
[13:54] ---
    We were going to wait
    and see how things went.
[13:56] ---
    But this time, it seems
    the public safety commission
[13:59] ---
    is requesting that all hero course
    students get on-the-job training.
[14:01] ---
    "Pro Hero - Vlad King - Quirk: Blood Control"
[14:03] ---
    Requesting?
[14:04] ---
    Are they ordering us
    to do the work studies?
[14:06] ---
    Yeah.
[14:07] ---
    Is this...
[14:08] ---
    ...them saying we're short-handed?
[14:11] ---
    Even though we're saturated with heroes?
[14:13] ---
    "Pro Hero - Ectoplasm - Quirk: Clones"
[14:14] ---
    "To learn to deal with the recent
    increase in villain organizations..."
[14:19] ---
    It definitely has something to do
    with what happened at Deika City.
[14:22] ---
    The League must be involved.
[14:24] ---
    "Pro Hero - Snipe - Quirk: Homing"
[14:24] ---
    It feels like they're
    being vague on purpose.
[14:27] ---
    The commission must
    have sniffed out a serious crisis.
[14:32] ---
    If they're not making the
    information they've gotten public
[14:35] ---
    and making things sound vague like this,
[14:37] ---
    then they must be trying
    to hide what they're doing...
[14:40] ---
    As Kayama said, them telling us
    to restart the work studies
[14:44] ---
    "Pro Hero - Hawks - Quirk: Fierce Wings"
[14:44] ---
    feels like a message from the commission.
[14:48] ---
    Well, it's not like they can say publicly
    that they want to mobilize the students.
[14:52] ---
    This is not normal.
[14:54] ---
    This has never happened before.
[14:57] ---
    In any case, being in imminent
    danger is normal for heroes.
[15:01] ---
    Let's try our best to ask heroes
    with good track records.
[15:05] ---
    It'll be winter vacation homework.
[15:07] ---
    Please tell your students
    after this meeting.
[15:10] ---
    Understood.
[15:12] ---
    "Meeting Room"
[15:12] ---
    And Aizawa, about
    the commission's other program...
[15:18] ---
    "A few days later"
[15:19] ---
    It's been four months since
    U.A. moved to an all-dorm system.
[15:23] ---
    No one seems suspicious.
[15:25] ---
    So are you saying there's no spy for
    the League of Villains among the students?
[15:30] ---
    If the League acts in the future
    and nothing happens, then...
[15:36] ---
    Principal, all the students
    in U.A.'s hero course
[15:39] ---
    have the heart of a hero.
[15:42] ---
    I know.
[15:45] ---
    By the way, are you coming back today?
[15:48] ---
    It'll be hard to make it back...
[15:50] ---
    Did something happen with Young Midoriya?
[15:53] ---
    Did you forget what day it is today?
[15:58] ---
    Ready, and--
[16:00] ---
    Merry Christmas!
[16:22] ---
    They're telling us to do work studies.
[16:24] ---
    We must be the busiest
    first years in U.A. history.
[16:28] ---
    You two are going back to Ryukyu, right?
[16:30] ---
    Yeah, what about you, Jiro?
[16:34] ---
    Christmas Eve's the best!
[16:36] ---
    Midoriya, what will you do?
    Since Nighteye Agency...
[16:41] ---
    Centipeder took over there, right?
[16:44] ---
    Then you can see him again!
[16:46] ---
    Yeah, that's what I thought, too, but...
[16:50] ---
    Oh, Midoriya, sorry.
[16:50] ---
    "Pro Hero - Centipeder - Quirk: Centipede"
[16:52] ---
    I'm ashamed to say this, but right now,
    we don't really have any time...
[16:56] ---
    "Pro Hero - Bubble Girl - Quirk: Bubble"
[16:56] ---
    Deku, it's been a long time!
[16:58] ---
    Sir did all this work by himself,
[17:01] ---
    so taking over's been hard!
[17:04] ---
    I did my internship with Gran Torino,
    but he can't do it either,
[17:08] ---
    so right now, I'm still in limbo...
[17:09] ---
    I see...
[17:10] ---
    But unlike last time,
    when it was optional,
[17:13] ---
    it's an assignment this time,
[17:15] ---
    so the school will
    introduce me to someone.
[17:17] ---
    --Oh? Oh, then...
    --What're you sneaking around for?!
[17:19] ---
    --Oh? Oh, then...
    --Huh? What are you talking about?
[17:21] ---
    Bakugo, will you go to Jeanist?!
[17:23] ---
    Huh?!
[17:25] ---
    "Best Jeanist Missing"
[17:30] ---
    I haven't decided yet.
[17:33] ---
    "Bakugo"?
[17:35] ---
    You're not choosing a hero name?
[17:37] ---
    They were all rejected!
[17:38] ---
    All the ones I'd been saving up!
[17:40] ---
    Oh, what were they?
[17:43] ---
    King Explosion Murder!
[17:44] ---
    Lord Explosion Murder!
[17:45] ---
    Explosion Murder!
[17:47] ---
    So childish.
[17:50] ---
    Your hero name is a wish.
[17:51] ---
    How you want to be, or how you should be.
[17:55] ---
    You haven't started looking
    outside of yourself yet.
[17:59] ---
    I want to show you the outside--the world.
[18:03] ---
    When you become a second year
    and get your provisional license,
[18:06] ---
    come back here.
[18:08] ---
    I will ask you your name again then.
[18:11] ---
    But you had a ton of
    people asking for you, right?
[18:14] ---
    After the sports festival.
[18:15] ---
    You can go wherever you want.
[18:17] ---
    I'm not interested in learning
    from riffraff after all this time.
[18:21] ---
    Don't put it on me!
[18:23] ---
    Come on, give in to peer pressure!
[18:27] ---
    Where to do our work studies...
[18:30] ---
    Hey! It's a holy night!
[18:32] ---
    Don't keep talking
    about school stuff tonight!
[18:35] ---
    That's a new point of view for you.
[18:38] ---
    Now, now, Mineta has a point, too.
[18:41] ---
    Let's enjoy the food!
[18:43] ---
    Sugarman can cook regular food, too!
[18:47] ---
    Sorry we're late...
[18:49] ---
    Have you started already?
[18:56] ---
    "Eri"
[18:57] ---
    Trick-or... treat...?
[19:00] ---
    No, you mixed up the holidays.
[19:02] ---
    Santa Eri!
[19:04] ---
    S-So cute!
[19:06] ---
    It looks good on you!
[19:08] ---
    Demons out! Demons in!
[19:11] ---
    No, that's not for another two months.
[19:13] ---
    Is Togata with you?
[19:16] ---
    Togata is with his class.
[19:19] ---
    Go on, have fun.
[19:20] ---
    Okay.
[19:23] ---
    So fluffy and cute!
[19:26] ---
    I painted some eggs.
[19:27] ---
    That's Easter!
[19:29] ---
    Eri, do you want a drink?
[19:31] ---
    Yeah.
[19:32] ---
    Her horn's gotten bigger again, hasn't it?
[19:37] ---
    Yeah.
[19:39] ---
    She's very positive.
[19:42] ---
    She's taking what you said to heart.
[20:20] ---
    "Manliness"
    "I want to be the No. 1 hero!! Kaminari"
[20:57] ---
    "Sticky Cut Mochi"
[21:06] ---
    At the time, not knowing anything,
[21:10] ---
    I thought, "I hope we can have such
    a fun Christmas party next year, too"
[21:15] ---
    from the bottom of my heart.
[22:52] ---
    The fun Christmas party ended,
[22:56] ---
    so our thoughts switched the problem
    of where to go for work studies.
[23:03] ---
    Midoriya, Bakugo.
[23:08] ---
    If you don't have anywhere else to go,
[23:11] ---
    wanna come...
[23:13] ---
    ...do a work study with Endeavor,
    the number one hero?
[23:20] ---
    "Preview"
[23:21] ---
    Here's the preview!
[23:23] ---
    Accepting Todoroki's invitation,
[23:25] ---
    Kacchan and I went to do our
    work studies at Endeavor's agency.
[23:29] ---
    This is your chance, Izuku Midoriya.
[23:31] ---
    What kind of hero work
    does the number one hero do?
[23:35] ---
    Learn, burn it into your memory,
    and use the experience to grow.
[23:39] ---
    Next time, "Off to Endeavor's Agency!"
[23:43] ---
    Endeavor's flames burn
    the villains to ashes!
[23:46] ---
    "Next time: Off to Endeavor's Agency!"
[23:46] ---
    Go beyond!
[23:47] ---
    Plus Ultra!
[23:50] ---
