**[00:02] ---**
Endeavor's my old man.
**[00:05] ---**
He's been stuck as the
number two hero for forever.
**[00:08] ---**
It is my Shoto's duty to surpass All Might.
**[00:13] ---**
If you have something from
the number one hero, then I...
**[00:19] ---**
...have even more reason to beat you.
**[00:24] ---**
In my memories, my mother is always crying.
**[00:28] ---**
"Your left side is unsightly,"
**[00:31] ---**
my mother said as she
poured boiling water on me.
**[00:36] ---**
Without using my damn old man's Quirk...
**[00:40] ---**
No...
**[00:41] ---**
I'll reject him completely by
winning first place without using it.
**[00:47] ---**
No matter what you are to All Might,
**[00:50] ---**
I will rise above you with just my right side.
**[00:56] ---**
But I can't lose, either.
**[00:59] ---**
I have to live up to the
hopes of those who supported me.
**[01:03] ---**
I will beat you, too!
**[02:42] ---**
But you want to be a hero, don't you?
**[02:49] ---**
It's okay for *you* to be one.
**[02:55] ---**
Before I knew it, I had forgotten
what happened after this...
**[03:15] ---**
"Shoto Todoroki" "Izuku Midoriya"
**[03:16] ---**
The first match of the second round!
**[03:19] ---**
At this year's sports festival,
both have shown top class performances!
**[03:24] ---**
Midoriya!
**[03:28] ---**
First, he'll come at me with ice.
**[03:30] ---**
Versus--
**[03:32] ---**
Todoroki!
**[03:35] ---**
It'll be dangerous to let
him use that power as he likes.
**[03:39] ---**
It's like two great rivals
fighting against each other!
**[03:41] ---**
Now--
**[03:43] ---**
The instant we start...
**[03:44] ---**
Start!
**[03:46] ---**
Go!
**[03:48] ---**
Smash!
**[03:59] ---**
So cold!
**[04:00] ---**
Just the wind is already this cold?!
**[04:08] ---**
Just as I expected.
**[04:12] ---**
He was prepared to injure
himself to negate the attack.
**[04:14] ---**
Wow! Midoriya stopped Todoroki's attack!
**[04:20] ---**
He didn't know what scale of
attack Young Todoroki would use,
**[04:24] ---**
so he abandoned control
and fired off a shot at 100%!
**[04:29] ---**
It's true that that was the only thing
he could do against the ice attack...
**[04:33] ---**
However!
**[04:36] ---**
Smash!
**[04:39] ---**
He stopped it again!
**[04:44] ---**
Damn...
**[04:46] ---**
From what I know of Todoroki's fighting,
**[04:48] ---**
he always attacks in an instant,
so I don't have much data on him.
**[04:51] ---**
Data... During this fight,
I need to find an opening...
**[04:56] ---**
The ice he's stuck behind him is probably
how he plans to keep from being blown away.
**[05:02] ---**
Which means, I was right to use my fingers.
**[05:06] ---**
It's likely that it could even work against
a 100% smash where I sacrifice my arm.
**[05:12] ---**
I've got to look carefully...
**[05:14] ---**
Think...
**[05:16] ---**
Find it...
**[05:18] ---**
I've got six more chances...!
**[05:22] ---**
You're...
**[05:33] ---**
Five more chances!
**[05:39] ---**
It started?!
**[05:40] ---**
Kirishima, good job making
it to the second round.
**[05:43] ---**
Yeah, I'll be up against you next, Bakugo.
Let's have a good fight!
**[05:47] ---**
I'll kill you.
**[05:49] ---**
I'd like to see you try!
**[05:51] ---**
But man, you and Todoroki can both shoot off
powerful attacks that cover a lot of ground.
**[05:56] ---**
Like "Bam!"
**[05:57] ---**
And you can do it with no time lag.
**[06:00] ---**
I'm not just shooting them off.
Don't underestimate 'em.
**[06:02] ---**
Huh?
**[06:03] ---**
If you overuse your muscles,
the muscle fibers tear,
**[06:06] ---**
and if you keep running,
you'll run out of breath.
**[06:10] ---**
There's a limit to how much
power I can produce, too.
**[06:14] ---**
That's why I designed my costume
so that I could fire blasts
**[06:17] ---**
in excess of what my
body allows without any risk.
**[06:21] ---**
Quirks are physical abilities, too.
**[06:24] ---**
They must also have some kind of limit.
**[06:27] ---**
If I think about it like that,
I guess that makes sense...
**[06:30] ---**
Then, against the instant-killer
Todoroki, Midoriya wants...
**[06:34] ---**
...an endurance match, huh?
**[06:36] ---**
I'll end this quickly.
**[06:39] ---**
Smash!
**[06:44] ---**
I've used up all the fingers on my right hand!
**[06:47] ---**
Todoroki doesn't recoil from
Midoriya's power and gets in close!
**[06:51] ---**
Damn it...!
**[07:04] ---**
Oh no, he's so close!
**[07:29] ---**
That's a lot more powerful than before.
**[07:34] ---**
Are you trying to tell me... to stay away...?
**[07:40] ---**
It's not just his Quirk.
**[07:43] ---**
His judgment, application skills, mobility...
**[07:48] ---**
All of his abilities... are strong!
**[07:54] ---**
He's already better than the average pro...
**[07:57] ---**
It's like that's what you get
from the son of the number two hero.
**[08:01] ---**
What, you're that beat up just
from defending and running away?
**[08:09] ---**
He's trembling...?
**[08:11] ---**
Is that how it is...?
**[08:14] ---**
Damn it...
**[08:17] ---**
Sorry...
**[08:19] ---**
Thanks, Midoriya. That guy's face
is clouded over thanks to you.
**[08:27] ---**
Without using my damn old man's Quirk...
**[08:31] ---**
No...
**[08:33] ---**
I'll reject him completely by
winning first place without using it.
**[08:40] ---**
With your arms like that,
you can't fight anymore, can you?
**[08:43] ---**
Let's finish this.
**[08:46] ---**
Todoroki keeps attacking
with overwhelming power!
**[08:49] ---**
Here comes the finishing ice attack!
**[08:54] ---**
Where are you looking?
**[09:12] ---**
Bastard...
**[09:15] ---**
With your broken finger...?
**[09:19] ---**
Why are you going so far?
**[09:21] ---**
You're trembling, Todoroki.
**[09:26] ---**
Quirks are physical abilities, too.
**[09:29] ---**
There's a limit to how much
cold your body can take, isn't there?
**[09:34] ---**
And isn't that something you could
solve by using the heat from your left side?
**[09:44] ---**
Everyone's fighting
with everything they've got...
**[09:48] ---**
To win and get closer to their dream...
**[09:53] ---**
To become number one...
**[09:57] ---**
You want to win with just half your strength?!
**[10:01] ---**
You haven't put a single
scratch on me yet, you know!
**[10:09] ---**
Come at with me with everything you've got!
**[10:22] ---**
You want to win with just half your strength?!
**[10:26] ---**
You haven't put a single
scratch on me yet, you know!
**[10:32] ---**
Come at with me with everything you've got!
**[10:35] ---**
Young Midoriya...
**[10:40] ---**
Todoroki isn't you, either.
**[10:45] ---**
That boy...
**[10:51] ---**
Midoriya...
**[10:53] ---**
What are you planning?
**[10:55] ---**
Everything I've got?
**[10:57] ---**
Did my damn old man buy you off or something?
**[11:01] ---**
Now I'm angry!
**[11:05] ---**
His movements are...
**[11:06] ---**
...slow!
**[11:08] ---**
It's because frost fell on his body...
**[11:11] ---**
Unlike the limit to my power,
it's probably like the MP in a game...
**[11:16] ---**
Was the scale during his fight
with Flat Face the upper limit?
**[11:21] ---**
In close quarters, you won't be
able to do anything about it!
**[11:27] ---**
The instant I lifted
my right foot... This guy...!
**[11:30] ---**
Imagine... the microwave...
**[11:34] ---**
It won't explode...
It won't... It won't...! It won't...!
**[11:40] ---**
A solid hit!
**[11:43] ---**
We've got some action!
**[11:48] ---**
He got a hit on Todoroki!
**[11:51] ---**
Even though Midoriya
looks way more beat up...
**[11:55] ---**
I can't believe he went
on the offensive here!
**[12:01] ---**
Why...?
**[12:06] ---**
The ice isn't coming as fast...
**[12:18] ---**
Should I stop it, Midnight?
**[12:20] ---**
That Midoriya's probably thinking,
"Recovery Girl will heal me anyway,"
**[12:26] ---**
and is being reckless.
**[12:27] ---**
He's full of adrenaline right now,
so he probably isn't feeling much pain...
**[12:32] ---**
But, those injuries...
**[12:35] ---**
They probably can't be fully healed in one go.
**[12:40] ---**
Even if he wins, he might not
be able to fight his next match.
**[12:45] ---**
You can't keep saying you can't help it
because you can't control your Quirk.
**[12:53] ---**
His power's gone down,
but he's gained some control.
**[12:56] ---**
He's not just fighting recklessly.
**[12:59] ---**
This is the best he can do
to win at this point in time.
**[13:06] ---**
But man...
**[13:08] ---**
Even if it can be healed,
**[13:10] ---**
to be able to jump into intense pain
like that requires a lot of resolve.
**[13:16] ---**
What is stirring him up?
**[13:20] ---**
All Might.
**[13:23] ---**
I want to be like him.
**[13:25] ---**
In order to do that, I have to be
strong enough to become number one.
**[13:30] ---**
My motivation might seem
trivial compared to yours...
**[13:35] ---**
I can't make a fist...!
**[13:38] ---**
Smash...!
**[13:46] ---**
Why are you going so far?
**[13:49] ---**
Because I want to live up
to everyone's expectations...
**[13:53] ---**
I want to be able to smile...
and respond to them...
**[13:57] ---**
To be a cool hero...
**[14:01] ---**
That's what I want to be!
**[14:04] ---**
Shoto...
**[14:08] ---**
That's why--
**[14:11] ---**
Everyone's giving it their all!
**[14:17] ---**
There's no way I can know all of
your circumstances, or your resolve.
**[14:24] ---**
But for you to become number one without giving it your all,
**[14:27] ---**
to completely reject your father...
**[14:29] ---**
Right now, I think you
should stop screwing around!
**[14:39] ---**
Stand up!
**[14:40] ---**
If you're downed by something
like this, forget beating All Might,
**[14:44] ---**
you won't even be able
to take the small fry villains--
**[14:45] ---**
Please, stop! He's only five!
**[14:48] ---**
He's *already* five! Get out of my way!
**[14:52] ---**
Mom...!
**[14:56] ---**
Shut up.
**[15:01] ---**
I don't wanna, Mom...
**[15:04] ---**
I... I...
**[15:07] ---**
I don't want to be like Dad...
**[15:10] ---**
I don't want to become
someone who bullies you, Mom!
**[15:15] ---**
But you want to be a hero, don't you?
**[15:25] ---**
It's okay for *you* to be one.
**[15:28] ---**
As long as you have
a future you feel strongly about.
**[15:31] ---**
That's why... I will win!
**[15:35] ---**
I'll surpass you!
**[15:48] ---**
Don't look at that, Shoto.
**[15:50] ---**
They're from a different world than you.
**[15:55] ---**
Mom, I'm going crazy...
**[16:00] ---**
I can't take it anymore.
**[16:01] ---**
Every day, the children seem
to become more and more like him...
**[16:05] ---**
Shoto's... That child's left side
sometimes looks very unsightly to me...
**[16:13] ---**
I can't raise him anymore...
I feel like I shouldn't...
**[16:17] ---**
M... Mom...?
**[16:28] ---**
I...
**[16:33] ---**
Good grief, this is an important time, too...
**[16:37] ---**
Where's Mom?
**[16:39] ---**
Oh, she injured you,
so I put her in a hospital.
**[16:47] ---**
It's your fault.
**[16:51] ---**
You're the one who made Mom...
**[16:56] ---**
I will reject...
**[16:59] ---**
...my old man's power...
**[17:04] ---**
It's *your* power, isn't it?!
**[17:08] ---**
Yes, that's right!
**[17:10] ---**
Children inherit Quirks from their parents.
**[17:15] ---**
But the really important
thing is not that connection,
**[17:20] ---**
but recognizing your own flesh and blood--
**[17:22] ---**
recognizing yourself.
**[17:25] ---**
That's what I mean when I say:
**[17:30] ---**
"I am here!"
**[17:32] ---**
"Looking back at that time"
**[17:32] ---**
You see?
**[17:34] ---**
But you want to be a hero, don't you?
**[17:39] ---**
It's okay for *you* to be one.
**[17:42] ---**
Before I knew it, I had forgotten...
**[17:46] ---**
You don't have to be a prisoner of your blood.
**[17:50] ---**
It's okay for you to become
**[17:53] ---**
who you want to be.
**[17:57] ---**
Th-This is...!
**[17:59] ---**
The fire's here...
**[18:01] ---**
In battle...
**[18:03] ---**
...I will never use my left.
**[18:06] ---**
He used it!
**[18:09] ---**
You made him use his left side...
**[18:12] ---**
Young Midoriya, don't tell me
you're trying to save Young Todoroki...?
**[18:18] ---**
Even though you want to win...
**[18:22] ---**
Damn it...
**[18:25] ---**
To help your enemy...
**[18:28] ---**
Which one of us is screwing around now?
**[18:34] ---**
I want... to be a hero, too...!
**[18:48] ---**
Shoto!
**[18:51] ---**
Huh?
**[18:52] ---**
Have you finally accepted yourself?!
**[18:54] ---**
That's it! Good!
**[18:56] ---**
It all starts from here for you!
**[18:59] ---**
With my blood, you will surpass me...
**[19:02] ---**
You will fulfill my desire!
**[19:12] ---**
Endeavor suddenly
shouts encouragement...?
**[19:15] ---**
Such a doting father.
**[19:19] ---**
Wow...
**[19:20] ---**
Why are you smiling?
**[19:23] ---**
With those injuries...
**[19:25] ---**
In this situation...
**[19:27] ---**
You're crazy...
**[19:31] ---**
Don't blame me for what happens next.
**[19:44] ---**
Midnight!
**[19:45] ---**
If they keep going, it'll be bad--
**[19:47] ---**
His body won't hold up!
**[19:54] ---**
Try to get close...
**[19:56] ---**
...and give him everything I've got!
**[19:58] ---**
Come at me with your full power!
**[20:07] ---**
Midoriya...
**[20:11] ---**
Thanks.
**[20:20] ---**
Hey!
**[20:22] ---**
What the heck?!
**[20:24] ---**
Man, seriously?!
**[20:26] ---**
What happened?
**[20:48] ---**
Just because something is
powerful doesn't mean it's good,
**[20:52] ---**
but this is amazing...
**[20:54] ---**
What was that just now...?
**[20:56] ---**
What the heck is up with your class?
**[20:58] ---**
The air that had been cooled thoroughly
was suddenly heated up and expanded.
**[21:03] ---**
That's what created this explosion...?
**[21:05] ---**
Just how hot was that?!
**[21:08] ---**
Jeez, I can't see a thing!
**[21:09] ---**
Hey, who won the match?
**[21:31] ---**
M-Midoriya is out of bounds...
**[21:39] ---**
Todoroki advances to the third round!
**[21:43] ---**
"Shoto Todoroki: Origin"
**[23:19] ---**
"Preview"
**[23:21] ---**
I am Tenya Iida,
the class representative of Class A,
**[23:25] ---**
and I am responsible for the preview.
**[23:26] ---**
This is the same way
you started the preview before!
**[23:29] ---**
Midoriya, I swear that
I will win and advance for you, too!
**[23:33] ---**
Yeah, I'm sure you can do it, Iida!
**[23:35] ---**
Yes, now that I have come this far,
I must become number one and tell Tensei.
**[23:39] ---**
Next time, "Fight on, Iida"!
**[23:41] ---**
Hello, Mother? What happened to Tensei?
**[23:43] ---**
What in the world happened
to my brother, Tensei?!
**[23:45] ---**
"Next time: Fight on, Iida"
**[23:45] ---**
Go beyond!
**[23:47] ---**
Plus Ultra!
**[23:50] ---**
**[23:50] ---**
