[00:00] ---
    The world has become a superhuman society,
[00:03] ---
    and about 80% of the world's population
    now has some kind of special trait.
[00:07] ---
    In this world swirling with chaos,
[00:09] ---
    the profession that everyone
    once dreamed about and admired
[00:12] ---
    came into the limelight.
[00:14] ---
    Heroes of justice fighting villains
    and saving people from distress.
[00:19] ---
    Yes, this is the story of how
    I became the greatest hero.
[01:58] ---
    Midoriya.
[02:01] ---
    I'm going to beat you.
[02:08] ---
    The students from the other courses are
    aiming for the top with everything they've got!
[02:12] ---
    I can't afford to fall behind.
[02:17] ---
    I'll be going for it
    with everything I have, too.
[02:27] ---
    "In Their Own Quirky Ways"
[02:32] ---
    The U.A. sports festival
    first-year stage qualifier!
[02:35] ---
    The first game is an obstacle course race!
[02:40] ---
    It's a cruel chicken race where anything
    goes as long as you stay on course!
[02:45] ---
    Hey.
[02:46] ---
    --We'll bring you the exciting scenes
[02:47] ---
    -with camera robots set around the course!
    --You don't need me, do you?
[02:51] ---
    Now then--
[02:53] ---
    Can the golden eggs aiming to be future heroes
    get through the mass of Robo Infernos?!
[03:02] ---
    If they went through all this trouble,
    I wish they would've prepared something better.
[03:10] ---
    Since my stupid old man is watching.
[03:27] ---
    He stopped them!
[03:29] ---
    Between their legs! We can get through!
[03:31] ---
    I wouldn't if I were you.
[03:32] ---
    I froze them when they were unbalanced.
[03:37] ---
    They'll fall over.
[03:47] ---
    The first one through the first barrier
    is Shoto Todoroki from Class 1-A!
[03:54] ---
    Hey! Someone's trapped underneath!
[03:56] ---
    Wouldn't that kill them?
[03:57] ---
    Will people die at this sports festival?!
[04:04] ---
    Like I'd die!
[04:06] ---
    Kirishima from Class 1-A
    was underneath! That's crazy!
[04:10] ---
    That bastard, Todoroki!
[04:11] ---
    He timed it on purpose
    so it'd be right when they fell.
[04:14] ---
    If it hadn't been me, someone would've died!
[04:16] ---
    "Eijiro Kirishima"
    "Quirk: Hardening"
[04:16] ---
    Eijiro Kirishima! Quirk: Hardening!
[04:19] ---
    His body can get super hard!
[04:22] ---
    He can become the strongest spear,
    or the strongest shield!
[04:27] ---
    That Class A...
[04:29] ---
    ...really is filled with bastards!
[04:32] ---
    Tetsutetsu from Class B was also underneath!
[04:35] ---
    That's crazy!
[04:36] ---
    If it hadn't been me, someone would've died!
[04:38] ---
    "Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu"
    "Quirk: Steel"
[04:39] ---
    Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu. Quirk: Steel!
[04:42] ---
    His body can become like steel!
[04:44] ---
    He can become the strongest spear,
    or the strongest shield!
[04:47] ---
    Our Quirks are pretty much the same?!
[04:49] ---
    I have a hard enough time
    standing out as it is!
[04:50] ---
    Wait, you little--!
[04:52] ---
    Those guys are lucky...
[04:54] ---
    They can get through without
    being afraid of getting crushed.
[04:57] ---
    Anyway, let's work together
    for now to clear a path!
[05:03] ---
    Bakugo?!
[05:04] ---
    Like I'd let you get ahead of me!
[05:09] ---
    Class 1-A's Bakugo!
[05:11] ---
    Since the bottom's blocked, he goes overhead!
[05:13] ---
    Clever!
[05:16] ---
    You seem like you'd be
    the type to plow straight through,
[05:19] ---
    but you can go around when you need to, huh?
[05:21] ---
    I'm going to hitch a ride!
[05:25] ---
    "Hanta Sero"
    "Quirk: Tape"
[05:25] ---
    Hanta Sero. Quirk: Tape!
[05:28] ---
    He can shoot tape-like
    material from his elbows!
[05:31] ---
    He can also wind it up and use it to move!
[05:32] ---
    Or cut it off and use it as a trap!
[05:35] ---
    Land!
[05:36] ---
    Aye, aye!
[05:37] ---
    "Fumikage Tokoyami"
    "Quirk: Dark Shadow"
[05:38] ---
    Fumikage Tokoyami. Quirk: Dark Shadow!
[05:42] ---
    He's got a shadow-like
    monster living inside him
[05:45] ---
    that can materialize
    and change shape elastically!
[05:51] ---
    As expected, most of the group
    that's gone ahead is from Class A.
[05:57] ---
    Class B and the other
    courses aren't bad, either!
[06:00] ---
    It's just...
[06:02] ---
    ...Class A doesn't spend
    a lot of time standing around.
[06:18] ---
    Those who experienced firsthand
[06:20] ---
    that world above them through
    the incident at USJ...
[06:24] ---
    Release!
[06:25] ---
    Those who had fear planted in their hearts...
[06:28] ---
    Those who dealt with it and pulled through...
[06:31] ---
    They all used that experience
    to drown out their hesitation.
[06:36] ---
    I can't rely on One For All
    this early in the competition!
[06:43] ---
    It's the armor of the one Todoroki defeated!
[06:48] ---
    That robot will lock onto
    the target and track it.
[06:51] ---
    I'll make it build up momentum...
[06:53] ---
    And then--
[06:55] ---
    It won't be able to stop suddenly!
[06:58] ---
    Move! Move!
[07:02] ---
    This can be a shield, too! It'll be useful!
[07:14] ---
    Yaoyorozu!
[07:16] ---
    A piece of cake.
[07:22] ---
    The path is clear!
[07:25] ---
    She defeated those
    zero-point villains so easily?
[07:28] ---
    No wonder she got in through recommendations.
[07:30] ---
    During the entrance exam,
    they were there to be avoided.
[07:35] ---
    If you see them as things to be defeated,
    they're dumb hunks of metal.
[07:39] ---
    You'll start to see openings.
[07:42] ---
    I want you to tell the world "I am here!"
[07:48] ---
    I told him that even though
    I knew it'd be unreasonable.
[07:51] ---
    It doesn't matter if it's close!
[07:52] ---
    Just get to the next round!
[07:55] ---
    Hey, hey! The first
    barrier's a piece of cake?
[07:58] ---
    Then what about the second?
[08:02] ---
    If you fall, you're out!
[08:04] ---
    If you don't wanna fall, then crawl!
[08:06] ---
    It's "The Fall"!
[08:08] ---
    When did they build this stage?
[08:12] ---
    Tsu?
[08:13] ---
    Ribbit!
[08:15] ---
    Ribbit.
[08:17] ---
    This is like a glorified tight rope.
[08:19] ---
    She's fast!
[08:22] ---
    Glitter.
[08:23] ---
    Here it is! Here's my chance to show off!
[08:27] ---
    It's time for my support items
    to be in the limelight!
[08:28] ---
    "heh heh heh heh heh "
[08:30] ---
    Look, all you support
    companies across the country!
[08:34] ---
    Wire arrows and... hover soles! Glitter!
[08:38] ---
    You're from the support course?
[08:39] ---
    What? It's okay to bring in items?
[08:42] ---
    The hero course undergoes
    combat training regularly, right?
[08:46] ---
    In order to keep things fair,
[08:48] ---
    we are allow to equip items and costumes,
[08:51] ---
    as long as we developed them ourselves!
[08:53] ---
    Or perhaps I should say...
[08:57] ---
    ...for those of us in the support course,
[09:00] ---
    this is the place where we can show off
    our ideas and skills to companies!
[09:08] ---
    Come, take a look, all you companies!
    Especially the big ones!
[09:13] ---
    Look at my super cute babies!
[09:25] ---
    Wow.
[09:27] ---
    That's so annoying...
[09:29] ---
    I can't lose!
[09:30] ---
    That's some misplaced equality!
[09:33] ---
    Nice...
[09:37] ---
    A lot of different people are working
    hard for their chance, huh, Eraser Head?
[09:43] ---
    What are you idiots stopping for?
[09:48] ---
    And now, the leader of the pack
    is easily getting through first!
[09:52] ---
    Looks like he's getting fired up.
    A slow starter?
[09:56] ---
    Damn it!
[10:01] ---
    My older brother is probably also watching.
[10:03] ---
    I can't let him see me act uncool!
[10:07] ---
    That's so uncool!
[10:09] ---
    That guy in first place is way ahead!
[10:12] ---
    His Quirk is really strong,
[10:14] ---
    but his natural athletic ability and
    judgment are also a cut above everyone else's.
[10:17] ---
    Of course it is.
    That's the Flame Hero, Endeavor's son.
[10:22] ---
    No wonder! The blood of the
    guy second only to All Might, huh?
[10:26] ---
    There'll be fighting over
    who gets him as a sidekick!
[10:30] ---
    The lead pack is a step ahead,
    but below them, everyone's clumped together!
[10:34] ---
    They haven't announced how
    many people will make it through,
[10:37] ---
    so you can't relax! Push forward!
[10:39] ---
    Izuku...
[10:47] ---
    And now, we've quickly
    arrived at the final barrier!
[10:50] ---
    The reality here is...
[10:52] ---
    ...that it's a minefield!
[10:54] ---
    It's set up so that you can tell
    where the mines are if you look carefully!
[10:57] ---
    So you have to exploit your eyes and legs!
[11:00] ---
    By the way, these landmines are for games,
    so they're not that powerful,
[11:04] ---
    but they're loud and flashy enough
    to make you wet your pants!
[11:09] ---
    That depends on the person.
[11:10] ---
    First place is already there?
[11:13] ---
    Faster... Faster...!
[11:19] ---
    I see. This is an obstacle that puts
    those in the lead at a disadvantage.
[11:23] ---
    Trying to make it entertaining, huh?
[11:28] ---
    This doesn't affect me!
[11:32] ---
    Bastard, don't declare
    war to the wrong person!
[11:38] ---
    And now, we've got someone new in the lead!
[11:41] ---
    Rejoice, mass media! It's the
    kind of development you guys love!
[11:47] ---
    Hey, hey, hey, the rest of
    the pack is also speeding up!
[11:51] ---
    However!
[11:52] ---
    Even as they push and pull at each other,
    can the two at the top remain in the lead?
[12:05] ---
    It... It's far...!
[12:09] ---
    But there's still stuff I have to do!
[12:15] ---
    "Boom~"
[12:21] ---
    I'm gonna borrow your idea, Kacchan!
[12:31] ---
    There's a huge explosion at the back?!
[12:33] ---
    What's with that force?!
[12:42] ---
    What?!
[12:43] ---
    Was it an accident, or
    did he do it on purpose?
[12:46] ---
    Class A's Midoriya is in
    hot pursuit with that blast!
[13:04] ---
    Landmines used for games...
[13:06] ---
    The type with fuses that
    go off if you step on them.
[13:08] ---
    They're not that powerful,
[13:10] ---
    but if I lose my balance and
    set off a bunch of them,
[13:13] ---
    I'll lose a lot of time.
[13:15] ---
    If I take injuries and stamina into account,
[13:17] ---
    it'd be better to slow down and avoid them.
[13:20] ---
    The jumpers can't jump carelessly either,
[13:23] ---
    and the further ahead you are,
    the more landmines you'll have to avoid.
[13:27] ---
    They probably can't go
    very fast with all the obstacles.
[13:30] ---
    Look carefully!
[13:31] ---
    The places where those in front avoided...
[13:34] ---
    Everyone was the most
    careful around the entrance.
[13:37] ---
    There are a lot of landmines left.
[13:39] ---
    It'll be fine.
[13:40] ---
    --What's Midoriya doing?
    --Don't be impatient here!
[13:42] ---
    In the lead are Bakugo and Todoroki!
[13:45] ---
    They'll get through the last barrier soon!
[13:47] ---
    All right.
[13:51] ---
    I'm gonna borrow your idea, Kacchan!
[13:53] ---
    Super explosive speed turbo!
[14:02] ---
    That's...!
[14:04] ---
    Class A's Midoriya is in
    hot pursuit with that blast!
[14:10] ---
    Actually, he's taken the lead!
[14:15] ---
    I flew just like I'd planned,
[14:17] ---
    but there's so much force!
[14:19] ---
    And...
[14:20] ---
    I didn't think about landing!
[14:24] ---
    Deku!
[14:26] ---
    Don't go ahead of me!
[14:30] ---
    This'll give those in the back a path...
[14:33] ---
    ...but I don't have time
    to worry about what's behind me!
[14:35] ---
    The two formerly in the lead have
    stopped trying to slow each other down
[14:38] ---
    and are chasing Midoriya!
[14:40] ---
    Now that they have a common enemy,
    they've stopped fighting!
[14:43] ---
    The fight's not over yet, though!
[14:46] ---
    What are you saying?
[14:49] ---
    Oh no...
[14:50] ---
    I'm losing speed...!
[14:51] ---
    That's not surprising...
[14:53] ---
    They'll overtake me in an instant!
[14:55] ---
    Thinking about the time I'd lose landing,
[14:56] ---
    there's no way I'd be
    able to take back the lead.
[14:59] ---
    Damn it! No! Don't let go!
[15:02] ---
    Grab hold of that chance you got to get
    in front of these two, and don't let go!
[15:09] ---
    If I can't take back the lead,
[15:11] ---
    then I can't let them get ahead of me!
[15:22] ---
    Midoriya swiftly blocks those behind him!
[15:25] ---
    Would you believe it?
    He cleared the minefield in an instant!
[15:31] ---
    Eraser Head, your class is amazing!
[15:34] ---
    What're you teaching them?!
[15:36] ---
    I didn't do anything.
[15:39] ---
    They got each other fired up on their own.
[15:44] ---
    U.A. sports festival, first-year stage!
[15:46] ---
    Not listening?!
[15:47] ---
    Who could've predicted the developments
    at the beginning or this conclusion?
[15:53] ---
    Right now, the first person back
    in the stadium is that man...
[15:59] ---
    Izuku Midoriya's made a huge splash!
[16:08] ---
    Izu...!
[16:12] ---
    Hey, that kid's...
[16:15] ---
    Oh yeah. If I remember correctly,
    he's from last year...
[16:16] ---
    "Authorized Personnel Only"
[16:23] ---
    This brat is...
[16:56] ---
    This sports festival is a competition
    where they have to aim for the top,
[17:00] ---
    even if it means defeating
    their friends and classmates.
[17:03] ---
    Modern heroes depend a
    lot on their popularity,
[17:07] ---
    so they need to have that
    desire to be above all the others.
[17:12] ---
    At your core, you are a hero
    who wants to help others.
[17:16] ---
    That is why I chose you,
[17:20] ---
    but I thought that was also your weakness.
[17:27] ---
    I was worrying over absolutely nothing!
[17:29] ---
    Sorry!
[17:31] ---
    You should still try to stop
    being such a crybaby, though.
[17:34] ---
    What do you think?
[17:36] ---
    First of all, Midoriya's
    stock will climb fast.
[17:39] ---
    However, he still has not shown his Quirk yet,
    so it's hard to predict what will happen.
[17:44] ---
    If you took on management of an agency,
    how would you market him? Opinions?
[17:49] ---
    What do you think?
[17:50] ---
    His appearance is out.
[17:52] ---
    If he were particular about his abilities
    or aesthetics, we could highlight those parts,
[17:56] ---
    but without the raw material to work with...
[17:59] ---
    That business course!
[18:00] ---
    They never change, huh?
[18:02] ---
    "Business Course"
[18:03] ---
    The business course!
[18:04] ---
    There is not really any benefit to
    them participating in the sports festival!
[18:07] ---
    --Therefore, they cultivate their instincts by
    selling things or doing marketing simulations!
[18:07] ---
    --Get your bentos here! Get your bentos here!
[18:07] ---
    "noise noise talk talk"
[18:13] ---
    They've got a lot of free time!
[18:20] ---
    Again...
[18:21] ---
    Damn...!
[18:23] ---
    Damn it...!
[18:26] ---
    And now, they're finishing one after another!
[18:29] ---
    We'll make a list of the results later,
    but for now, good work!
[18:38] ---
    Deku! You were amazing!
[18:40] ---
    --Uraraka?
    --I can't believe I fell behind with this Quirk...
[18:42] ---
    --First place is amazing!
    --I can't believe I fell behind with this Quirk...
[18:43] ---
    --That's so frustrating, dang it!
    --I still have a long way to go...!
[18:45] ---
    --I-It was just...
    --I still have a long way to go...!
[18:49] ---
    I was just lucky!
[18:51] ---
    I just happened to be able to use
    something I thought I could use.
[18:55] ---
    What's amazing was my luck.
[18:58] ---
    It was a lucky punch.
[19:03] ---
    My real ability will be tested after this...
[19:12] ---
    This isn't how it was supposed to...
[19:15] ---
    I killed two birds with one stone!
[19:16] ---
    I'm a genius!
[19:18] ---
    You're the worst!
[19:22] ---
    The first game of the
    first-year stage is finally over.
[19:26] ---
    Now, take a look at the results!

[20:02] ---
    The top 42 made it through to the next round.
[20:04] ---
    It's unfortunate, but don't
    worry even if you didn't make it!
[20:07] ---
    We've prepared other
    chances for you to shine.
[20:11] ---
    The real competition begins next!
[20:14] ---
    The press cavalry'll be all over it!
[20:17] ---
    Give it your all!
[20:21] ---
    Now then, here is the second game.
    I already know what it is,
[20:26] ---
    but what could it be? What could it be?
[20:29] ---
    I just said it, and now here it is...
[20:33] ---
    A cavalry battle?
[20:35] ---
    I'm bad at those...
[20:36] ---
    --It's not an individual event,
    so I wonder how it'll work...
    --Cavalry battle!
[20:40] ---
    Let me explain.
[20:41] ---
    The participants can form teams
    of two to four people as they wish.
[20:47] ---
    It's basically the same
    as a regular cavalry battle,
[20:50] ---
    but the one thing that's different is...
[20:53] ---
    ...based on the results of the last game,
    each person has been assigned a point value.
[20:57] ---
    A point-based system
    like the entrance exam, huh?
[21:00] ---
    That's easy to understand.
[21:02] ---
    In other words, each team is worth different
    points depending on who's on the team!
[21:06] ---
    I see!
[21:08] ---
    You guys don't hold back
    even though I'm talking, huh?!
[21:12] ---
    Yes, that's right! And the points assigned
    go up by five starting from the bottom.
[21:16] ---
    So 42nd place gets five points,
    and 41st gets ten points!
[21:21] ---
    And the point value
    assigned to first place is...
[21:25] ---
    ...ten million!
[21:28] ---
    T-Ten million?!
[21:31] ---
    Ten million, huh?
[21:33] ---
    In other words, if you take down
    the first place player's team...
[21:36] ---
    ...you can stand at the top
    no matter what place you're in!
[21:41] ---
    That's right.
[21:43] ---
    It's survival of the fittest, with a chance
    for those at the bottom to overthrow the top!
[23:20] ---
    "Preview"
[23:21] ---
    Let's talk about the next episode, Deku.
[23:24] ---
    The second round is the cavalry battle!
    Usually, four people fight as a team, but...
[23:28] ---
    ...no one wants to be on my team!
[23:31] ---
    Deku, you're lonely, huh?
[23:33] ---
    Did I get labeled a loner without knowing it?
[23:35] ---
    Deku, you're lonely, huh?
[23:37] ---
    She said it twice!
[23:39] ---
    Next time, "Strategy, Strategy, Strategy"!
[23:41] ---
    Deku's tears will shoot out like a geyser!
[23:44] ---
    Go beyond!
[23:46] ---
    "Next time: Strategy, Strategy, Strategy"
[23:46] ---
    Plus Ultra!
