[00:03] ---
    It all began in China, in Qingqing City.
[00:07] ---
    There was news that a baby
    that gave off light was born.
[00:11] ---
    Ever since then, superpowers
    were discovered in various places,
[00:14] ---
    and time passed without
    the cause being identified.
[00:18] ---
    The world has become a superhuman society,
[00:20] ---
    and about 80% of the world's population
    now has some kind of special trait.
[00:24] ---
    In this world swirling with chaos,
[00:26] ---
    the profession that everyone
    once dreamed about and admired
[00:30] ---
    came into the limelight.
[00:32] ---
    That profession is...
[00:38] ---
    It's fine now. Why?
[00:42] ---
    Because I am here.
[00:48] ---
    He's so cool!
[00:50] ---
    Once I get my Quirk, I
    wanna be like him, too!
[00:54] ---
    "But..."
[00:57] ---
    I'm sorry, Izuku!
[00:59] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
[01:01] ---
    I was born without a Quirk.
[01:05] ---
    I was Quirkless.
[01:07] ---
    Even if I wanted to be like him, I couldn't.
[01:12] ---
    That's right. I had to give up on my dream.
[01:21] ---
    But my arm kept reaching
    out desperately for that dream,
[01:26] ---
    and thanks to the people who
    guided me and keep supporting me,
[01:33] ---
    I am here now.
[01:40] ---
    My dream is becoming reality.
[01:44] ---
    Even the setbacks in the process are real.
[01:50] ---
    I'll say it again.
[01:53] ---
    This is the story
[01:57] ---
    of how I became the greatest hero.
[03:34] ---
    This is a follow-up report on yesterday's
    incident at the U.A. rescue training facility
[03:38] ---
    where hero course students
    were attacked by villains.
[03:41] ---
    "Follow-Up Report: U.A. High School Attack"
[03:41] ---
    According to police investigation, the criminals
    call themselves "The League of Villains"
[03:44] ---
    "At the scene -
    Unforeseen Simulation Joint (USJ)"
[03:46] ---
    and have been plotting to kill All Might,
[03:49] ---
    who has been a teacher
    at U.A. since spring of this year.
[03:53] ---
    Police have arrested 72 villains,
[03:56] ---
    but they still do not know
    the whereabouts of their ringleader.
[04:02] ---
    "Greetings. It feels like summer
    is just around the corner.
[04:07] ---
    As for you, sir, I hope
    that this letter finds you well.
[04:13] ---
    Since spring, I have been
    a teacher at U.A. High School
[04:17] ---
    and have taken on the task
    of guiding the next generation.
[04:21] ---
    I thought to find someone worthy
[04:24] ---
    to inherit my power among
    the most promising students
[04:26] ---
    aiming to become heroes.
[04:31] ---
    However, before I took up
    my post at U.A., I met a young man.
[04:37] ---
    Even though this young man had no Quirk,
[04:41] ---
    he rushed toward the scene
[04:42] ---
    in a situation where pro heroes,
    including myself, hesitated,
[04:45] ---
    using what power he had to try
    to find a way out of the situation.
[04:49] ---
    He may not have had a
    plan in mind at the time.
[04:52] ---
    Even so, he ran.
[04:55] ---
    I feel like I relearned from that young man
[05:00] ---
    the essence of what a hero must have
    in order to be worthy to be a hero.
[05:04] ---
    That is why I told him,
[05:07] ---
    'You can become a hero.'
[05:11] ---
    I proposed to transfer my own Quirk to him.
[05:15] ---
    The power cultivated by one person,
[05:21] ---
    who passes it on to another person,
    who also cultivates it and passes it on.
[05:27] ---
    The crystallization of
    power that spins together
[05:29] ---
    the voices of those who need
    help with a courageous heart--
[05:32] ---
    One For All.
[05:34] ---
    The young man inherited
    my power without hesitation
[05:38] ---
    and underwent training to be accepted
    into the hero course at U.A. High School.
[05:44] ---
    Even as he struggled with his new Quirk,
[05:47] ---
    he kept giving his all to make it his own.
[05:51] ---
    I'm proud of him.
[05:54] ---
    I don't like to toot my own horn,
[05:57] ---
    but I do not regret passing
    on One For All to him at all.
[06:03] ---
    However, I am still
    inexperienced as a teacher.
[06:06] ---
    The day may come when
    I must trouble you, my old teacher.
[06:11] ---
    I am counting on you when that time comes.
[06:12] ---
    "Sincerely yours, --Toshinori Yagi"
[06:15] ---
    Please take care of yourself
    as the seasons change.
[06:20] ---
    I will continue to keep you
    updated on my circumstances.
[06:22] ---
    Sincerely yours."
[06:26] ---
    The boy acknowledged by Toshinori, huh?
[06:31] ---
    "Episode 14: That's the Idea, Ochaco"
[06:37] ---
    The police have investigated the group
    calling themselves "The League of Villains,"
[06:42] ---
    and there does not appear to be
    anyone registered with the name Shigaraki
[06:47] ---
    in his 20s or 30s with a Quirk that
    lets him disintegrate whatever he touches.
[06:51] ---
    It's the same with the villain
    called Kurogiri with the Warp Gate.
[06:54] ---
    They are probably not citizens
    and are using false names.
[06:57] ---
    In other words, they are people
    with unregistered Quirks
[06:59] ---
    who are part of society's underbelly.
[07:02] ---
    You mean, we don't know anything...
[07:05] ---
    We must hurry.
[07:07] ---
    Once their ringleader, Shigaraki's gun
    wounds heal, they'll definitely try again.
[07:12] ---
    It'll be a pain.
[07:13] ---
    Their ringleader, huh?
[07:15] ---
    What is it, All Might?
[07:17] ---
    It was a bold attack that normal people
    wouldn't carry out even if they thought of it.
[07:22] ---
    To suddenly go on and on
    with his wild statements like that...
[07:25] ---
    Although he didn't reveal his own Quirk,
[07:27] ---
    he bragged about that Nomu's Quirk...
[07:31] ---
    And when things didn't go the way
    he wanted, he was visibly upset.
[07:36] ---
    Well, the incident with the Quirk
    was to also force my hand, but...
[07:42] ---
    Even so, it was foolish to throw
    away the advantage of having unknown Quirks
[07:46] ---
    when fighting against heroes.
[07:49] ---
    He made immature,
    wild statements with a straight face.
[07:52] ---
    He bragged about his possessions.
[07:54] ---
    He thought everything
    would simply go his way.
[07:58] ---
    Adding that to what I saw of him
    when he carried out the attack,
[08:00] ---
    the picture I get of Shigaraki is...
[08:03] ---
    ...someone who hasn't gotten rid
    of his childish sense of omnipotence--
[08:06] ---
    A man-child.
[08:08] ---
    A child with power?
[08:10] ---
    Could it be that he never received
    the Quirk counseling every child
[08:13] ---
    gets in elementary school?
[08:14] ---
    Well, what does that have
    to do with anything?
[08:17] ---
    There were 72 villains
    arrested the other day at USJ.
[08:22] ---
    They were all small-timers
    that lurked in back alleys.
[08:25] ---
    But the problem is how they all agreed
    with that man-child and followed him.
[08:32] ---
    In the current environment
    saturated with heroes,
[08:34] ---
    villainous people who have been oppressed
[08:36] ---
    may be drawn to that kind
    of simple-minded evil.
[08:41] ---
    That's true.
[08:43] ---
    There are plenty of people who don't
    know what to do with their Quirks.
[08:46] ---
    This is alarming, though...
[08:49] ---
    Well, it's thanks to you heroes
[08:51] ---
    that we are able to devote
    ourselves to our investigation.
[08:54] ---
    We'll expand our search network and
    continue to assist in arresting the perpetrators.
[09:00] ---
    A man-child...
[09:03] ---
    In some sense, he's like our students.
[09:06] ---
    He still has room to grow.
[09:08] ---
    If there was someone capable backing him,
    trying to cultivate his malice...
[09:18] ---
    I don't want to think
    about what could happen...
[09:23] ---
    The day after the
    League of Villains attacked USJ,
[09:27] ---
    school was closed temporarily,
[09:29] ---
    but it was hard to take it easy.
[09:34] ---
    Can you see that?
[09:35] ---
    He's already saved a hundred people!
[09:37] ---
    That's crazy! It hasn't
    even been ten minutes!
[09:40] ---
    That's crazy!
[09:43] ---
    He's laughing!
[09:46] ---
    It's fine now. Why?
[09:51] ---
    Because I am here.
[09:54] ---
    What I aspire to be seems so out of reach...
[09:58] ---
    During the USJ incident, the villains just
    toyed with us with their malice and strength.
[10:04] ---
    We just slowed down Mr. Aizawa and Thirteen.
[10:11] ---
    In order to oppose that evil,
[10:13] ---
    I must make this power that
    I inherited from All Might, One For All,
[10:17] ---
    more and more my own.
[10:21] ---
    Because time is of the essence...
[10:25] ---
    Because I'm the one who inherited it...
[10:30] ---
    Izuku...?
[10:31] ---
    Yes?
[10:33] ---
    The food's ready.
[10:36] ---
    Thanks, I'll be right there.
[10:41] ---
    Today, we're having pork cutlet bowls!
[10:47] ---
    Hey, did you watch the news last night?
[10:50] ---
    Yeah.
[10:51] ---
    Did you see how everyone
    in class was on-screen for a second?
[10:53] ---
    I didn't stand out at all...
[10:57] ---
    That's true.
[10:58] ---
    It's hard to stand out
    looking like that, huh?
[11:01] ---
    But man, all the channels
    made a big deal out of it.
[11:06] ---
    I was surprised.
[11:07] ---
    Can you blame them?
[11:08] ---
    The hero course that keeps
    pumping out pro heroes was attacked.
[11:12] ---
    Who knows what would've happened
    if the teachers hadn't come when they did.
[11:15] ---
    Stop that, Sero!
[11:17] ---
    Just thinking about it's
    making me wet myself--
[11:19] ---
    Shut up! Be quiet, scum!
[11:21] ---
    But man, All Might was great.
[11:24] ---
    He pushed back those crazy strong villains.
[11:26] ---
    Yes, his strength is worth wondering at.
[11:31] ---
    Everyone! Morning homeroom is about to start!
[11:33] ---
    Stop talking and take your seats!
[11:36] ---
    We're already in our seats.
[11:37] ---
    You're the only one who's not.
[11:40] ---
    Shoot!
[11:41] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[11:43] ---
    Tsu, who's...
[11:45] ---
    ...gonna teach homeroom today?
[11:47] ---
    Well, Mr. Aizawa is supposed to be in
    the hospital recovering from his injuries...
[11:53] ---
    Ribbit?
[11:53] ---
    Morning.
[11:54] ---
    Mr. Aizawa, you're back too soon!
[11:57] ---
    You're too much of a pro!
[11:59] ---
    So you're all right, Mr. Aizawa?
[12:01] ---
    Can you really call that "all right"?
[12:04] ---
    My well-being doesn't matter.
[12:06] ---
    More importantly, the fight is not yet over.
[12:09] ---
    Fight?
[12:11] ---
    Don't tell me...
[12:11] ---
    The villains again...?!
[12:15] ---
    The U.A. sports festival is drawing near.
[12:19] ---
    That's a super normal school event!
[12:31] ---
    The sports festival!
[12:33] ---
    That's a super normal school event--
[12:35] ---
    Wait a minute.
[12:37] ---
    Is it okay to have a sports festival
    so soon after the villains snuck inside?
[12:41] ---
    What if they attack us again or something...?
[12:44] ---
    Apparently, they think of it as U.A. showing
[12:46] ---
    that our crisis management system
    is solid as a rock by holding the event.
[12:51] ---
    Security will also be strengthened
    to five times that of previous years.
[12:55] ---
    Above all, our sports
    festival is a huge chance.
[12:58] ---
    It's not an event to be cancelled
    because of a few villains.
[13:01] ---
    But that's a good reason, isn't it?
    It's just a festival of sports.
[13:06] ---
    Mineta, you've never
    seen the U.A. sports festival?
[13:09] ---
    Of course I have.
[13:10] ---
    That's not what I meant!
[13:13] ---
    Our sports festival is
    one of Japan's biggest events.
[13:17] ---
    In the past, the Olympics
    were called a festival of sports,
[13:20] ---
    and the whole country was crazy about them.
[13:22] ---
    As you know, with reductions
    in scale and population,
[13:24] ---
    they're now a shell of their former glory.
[13:27] ---
    And now, for Japan, what has
    taken the place of those Olympics
[13:32] ---
    is the U.A. sports festival!
[13:37] ---
    Of course, all the top heroes
    around the country will be watching.
[13:40] ---
    For scouting purposes!
[13:42] ---
    I know that.
[13:43] ---
    "Receive Certification"
[13:44] ---
    After we graduate, it's typical
    to join a pro agency as a sidekick.
[13:45] ---
    "Pro Agency"
[13:46] ---
    "Pro Agency"
    "Sidekick (Partner)"
[13:48] ---
    A lot of people miss their chance
    to become independent after that
[13:51] ---
    and become eternal sidekicks, though.
[13:53] ---
    Kaminari, I feel like you'd be one of them.
[13:56] ---
    Since you're dumb.
[13:59] ---
    Of course, joining a famous hero agency
    will get you more experience and popularity.
[14:05] ---
    Time is limited.
[14:07] ---
    If you expect to go pro, then the path
    to your future will open up at this event.
[14:11] ---
    One chance a year--
[14:13] ---
    a total of just three chances.
[14:15] ---
    No aspiring heroes can
    afford to miss this event.
[14:19] ---
    If you understand that,
    then don't slack off on your preparations!
[14:22] ---
    Yes, sir!
[14:23] ---
    Homeroom is dismissed.
[14:29] ---
    "Lunchtime"
[14:31] ---
    Even though all that stuff happened,
[14:33] ---
    I'm getting really excited!
[14:35] ---
    If we put on a good show and stand out,
[14:36] ---
    we'll have taken the first
    step to becoming a pro!
[14:38] ---
    It was worth coming to U.A.!
[14:41] ---
    We will only receive a few chances.
    We cannot afford to miss this.
[14:44] ---
    Ojiro, I'm getting kind of nervous now.
[14:48] ---
    I need to stand out at the sports festival!
[14:50] ---
    --Hip, hip, hooray!
    --Y-Yeah...
[14:50] ---
    But the pros might not
    notice you unless you try really hard...
[14:57] ---
    Oh dear, what'll I do?
    I stand out just by standing still,
[15:02] ---
    so the scouts won't be able
    to stop looking at me, right?
[15:06] ---
    Right?
[15:09] ---
    You're lucky, Shoji.
    Your brawn stands out on its own.
[15:14] ---
    There's no point if I cannot
    show them my usefulness.
[15:18] ---
    I think you'll stand out, too.
[15:18] ---
    "*Used his Quirk too much."
[15:22] ---
    Everyone's so into it.
[15:25] ---
    You're not?
[15:26] ---
    We have enrolled here to become heroes,
[15:29] ---
    so of course we would get fired up!
[15:31] ---
    Iida, you have a unique
    way of getting fired up.
[15:33] ---
    It's weird.
[15:34] ---
    Midoriya, you don't feel the same?
[15:36] ---
    Of course I do.
[15:38] ---
    But something's...
[15:39] ---
    Deku, Iida...
[15:43] ---
    Let's do our best at the sports festival.
[15:45] ---
    U-Uraraka, your face...! It's...
[15:47] ---
    What's the matter?
[15:48] ---
    You don't look carefree at all,
    even though that's what your name means.
[15:52] ---
    PM--
[15:55] ---
    Everyone, I'm gonna do my best!
[15:58] ---
    Yeah!
[16:00] ---
    I'm gonna do my best!
[16:02] ---
    Y-Yeah...
[16:03] ---
    What's wrong?
    Your personality's all over the place.
[16:07] ---
    Now that I think about it...
[16:08] ---
    --Everyone, I'm gonna do my best!
    --I never asked Uraraka...
[16:12] ---
    "Lunch Rush's Eatery"
    "Cafeteria"
[16:14] ---
    Uraraka.
[16:15] ---
    Yes?
[16:16] ---
    Why did you decide to come
    to U.A. and become a pro hero?
[16:20] ---
    Huh? Um... because...
[16:25] ---
    For money?!
[16:26] ---
    You want to become a hero for money?
[16:29] ---
    To boil it down simply, yes...
[16:31] ---
    Sorry it's such an unwholesome reason.
[16:34] ---
    You two have such admirable
    motivations, it's embarrassing...
[16:38] ---
    Why? How is having a goal to
    support your livelihood not admirable?
[16:43] ---
    Right. But it's unexpected.
[16:47] ---
    My family owns a construction company,
[16:51] ---
    but we haven't gotten any
    work at all, so we're flat broke.
[16:54] ---
    This isn't really something
    to tell other people, though...
[16:58] ---
    Construction...
[17:00] ---
    With her Quirk, if she gets licensed,
    then it'd bring costs way down, right?
[17:03] ---
    She could make any raw material float.
    They wouldn't need any heavy equipment.
[17:07] ---
    Right? That's what I told
    Dad when I was little!
[17:11] ---
    But...
[17:13] ---
    You want to work for us?
[17:15] ---
    Yeah! When I get big,
    I'll help you and Mommy!
[17:23] ---
    I appreciate the thought, Ochaco.
[17:26] ---
    But as your dad, I'd be even happier
    if you could achieve your dream.
[17:31] ---
    When that happens,
    you can take us to Hawaii!
[17:36] ---
    Daddy...
[17:40] ---
    I'll definitely become a hero and make money
[17:45] ---
    and let my parents take it easy.
[17:54] ---
    Bravo!
[17:55] ---
    Uraraka, Bravo!
[17:58] ---
    Bravo!
[18:00] ---
    --Bravo! Uraraka
[18:00] ---
    --She's not just aspiring to be a hero.
    She's also taken reality into consideration.
[18:08] ---
    Young Midoriya is here!
[18:11] ---
    All Might?
[18:13] ---
    What's the matter?
[18:14] ---
    Lunch!
[18:16] ---
    Wanna eat together?
[18:18] ---
    He's like a maiden!
[18:19] ---
    How about it?
[18:22] ---
    I'd love to.
[18:25] ---
    I wonder what's going on...
[18:27] ---
    "Lunch Rush's Eatery"
[18:31] ---
    I wonder what he wanted with Deku.
[18:34] ---
    I heard that when All Might was
    attacked by villains during the USJ incident,
[18:37] ---
    he rushed out alone to help.
[18:39] ---
    Perhaps it's about that?
[18:41] ---
    "I see!"
[18:41] ---
    Oh, yeah!
[18:42] ---
    Remember what Asui said on the bus?
[18:45] ---
    Your Quirk is like All Might's.
[18:49] ---
    The boundless power
    they both have are similar, too,
[18:51] ---
    so maybe All Might has taken a liking to him.
[18:54] ---
    He's amazing.
[18:56] ---
    All Might... and Izuku Midoriya...
[19:00] ---
    "Lounge"
    "In use"
[19:01] ---
    Only about fifty minutes?!
[19:03] ---
    Yeah...
[19:05] ---
    That's the limit to how long
    I can use my power now.
[19:07] ---
    I overdid it too many times.
[19:10] ---
    That Nomu was also a tough opponent.
[19:14] ---
    And it hurt...
[19:16] ---
    I can just barely maintain muscle
    form for 1.5 hours now.
[19:20] ---
    About that...
[19:22] ---
    Sorr--
[19:25] ---
    You don't have to apologize!
[19:26] ---
    Man, we really are alike, you and me.
[19:30] ---
    Have some tea.
[19:32] ---
    Thanks...
[19:33] ---
    More importantly, about the sports festival.
[19:36] ---
    You still can't regulate
    One For All, can you?
[19:39] ---
    What'll you do?
[19:42] ---
    But there was one time...!
[19:44] ---
    When I aimed a smash at that
    brain villain, there was no backlash.
[19:48] ---
    Oh yeah, you mentioned that!
[19:51] ---
    What was different?
[19:53] ---
    Different...
[19:55] ---
    The biggest difference between that and
[19:58] ---
    the One For All that I'd been using was...
[20:02] ---
    ...my Quirk, Black Hole.
[20:05] ---
    I can suck up anything and turn it to dust.
[20:09] ---
    But it is a power that can kill easily.
[20:15] ---
    It was the first time...
    I tried to use this power on a person...
[20:22] ---
    Hmm... Looks like you succeeded
    in putting on the brakes unconsciously.
[20:28] ---
    Anyway, that's progress. I'm glad.
[20:31] ---
    Now, drink up.
[20:33] ---
    Oh, thank you.
[20:36] ---
    Frankly, I don't have much time
    left as the Symbol of Peace.
[20:44] ---
    No way…
[20:46] ---
    And some of those with built-up
    villainous intent are starting to realize.
[20:54] ---
    I granted you my power
    because I want you to succeed me.
[21:00] ---
    I want to be like you. I want
    to become the greatest hero, like you!
[21:07] ---
    Saving people with a fearless smile.
[21:10] ---
    You still feel the same as you did back then,
[21:14] ---
    don't you?
[21:15] ---
    Yes.
[21:17] ---
    Then, the time has come for you to show that.
[21:22] ---
    The U.A. sports festival
    is something pro heroes--
[21:25] ---
    no, the whole country--is
    watching closely. A big event!
[21:31] ---
    That is what I brought
    you here to talk about!
[21:34] ---
    The next All Might...
    the fledgling Symbol of Peace...
[21:40] ---
    Izuku Midoriya.
[21:43] ---
    I want you to tell the world "I am here!"
[23:19] ---
    "Preview"
[23:21] ---
    The preview is here!
[23:24] ---
    The U.A. sports festival is finally starting!
[23:26] ---
    The first event is the obstacle course
    race that everyone will participate in!
[23:29] ---
    There's no limit to Quirk use!
[23:31] ---
    Isn't that very dangerous...?
[23:33] ---
    Even so, aim for the top!
[23:35] ---
    Show off to the world the
    fledgling hero, Izuku Midoriya!
[23:39] ---
    Next time, "Roaring Sports Festival"!
[23:41] ---
    Young Todoroki picks
    a fight with Young Midoriya!
[23:45] ---
    Go beyond!
[23:45] ---
    "Next time: Roaring Sports Festival"
[23:47] ---
    Plus Ultra!
[23:51] ---
