[00:03] ---
    The number one hero, All Might.
[00:06] ---
    Age unknown, Quirk unidentified.
SIGN    "All Might's Super Popular!" "All Might Gum" "All Might's Adventure"
[00:09] ---
    He dashed onto the scene of the hero world
[00:11] ---
    "Textbook of Strength"
[00:11] ---
    and received unwavering
    popularity based on his ability.
SIGN    "All Might Curry" "Movie in the works!" "All Might Chips"
[00:15] ---
    Ever since he appeared,
[00:17] ---
    the once critically high rate of crimes
    committed by villains decreased year after year,
[00:17] ---
    "National Police Agency Investigation:
    Number of Crimes Committed by Villains"
[00:21] ---
    and his existence itself became a deterrent.
[00:24] ---
    He became the Symbol of Peace
    in both name and reality.
[00:28] ---
    And that man said to me--
[00:33] ---
    You can become a hero.
[00:36] ---
    --Huh? Midoriya? No way!
[00:38] ---
    --You're Quirkless!
[00:40] ---
    How can you even stand
    in the same ring as me?
[00:43] ---
    You should probably give it up.
[00:44] ---
    I'm sorry, Izuku!
[00:47] ---
    I wanted someone to tell me that.
[00:49] ---
    And then, the person I most
    admired said those words to me.
[00:54] ---
    Can anything be more shocking than this?
[00:58] ---
    More than this...?
[01:01] ---
    You are worthy to inherit my power.
[02:42] ---
    Inherit your power?
[02:47] ---
    What's with that face?
[02:50] ---
    It's just a suggestion.
    The real show starts after this.
[02:54] ---
    Listen, young man. You need to decide
[02:58] ---
    whether or not you will accept my power!
[03:02] ---
    Wh-What is All Might saying...?
[03:07] ---
    I'm talking about my power, young man.
[03:11] ---
    The tabloids called it
    "superhuman strength" and a "boost,"
[03:15] ---
    and I constantly dodged the question
    during interviews with a funny joke.
[03:21] ---
    Because the Symbol of Peace,
    All Might, had to be a natural-born hero.
[03:27] ---
    But young man, I will tell you the truth.
[03:34] ---
    My Quirk was passed on
    to me like a sacred torch.
[03:39] ---
    It was passed on to you...?
[03:43] ---
    That's right. And next, it is your turn.
[03:47] ---
    W-Wait! Wait a minute!
[03:50] ---
    "Summary of what's known
    about All Might's Quirk"
[03:50] ---
    It's true that your Quirk
    is something hotly debated
[03:54] ---
    as one of the world's greatest mysteries.
[03:56] ---
    So much so that not a day goes by when
    I don't see someone talking about it online.
[03:58] ---
    But, well, I don't really understand
[03:58] ---
    "mutter mutter mutter"
[04:01] ---
    what you mean by inheriting
    or passing on a Quirk...
[04:03] ---
    I've never heard of
    anything like that before,
[04:05] ---
    and it's never even been
    conjectured in the debate.
[04:07] ---
    Why is that? Is it because
    since the dawn of history,
[04:11] ---
    a Quirk like that was never confirmed?
[04:13] ---
    In the first place, it's...
[04:15] ---
    You always start with denial, huh?
[04:18] ---
    Nonsense!
[04:19] ---
    Wh...?!
[04:20] ---
    I may hide a lot of things, but I don't lie!
[04:24] ---
    The power to transfer power...
[04:26] ---
    That is the Quirk I inherited!
[04:31] ---
    I was crowned with "One For All"!
[04:35] ---
    "One For All"...
[04:38] ---
    That's right.
[04:41] ---
    One person cultivates the power
[04:43] ---
    and passes it on to another person,
    who also cultivates it and passes it on.
[04:50] ---
    It is the crystallization of power that spins
    together the voices of those who need help
[04:55] ---
    with a courageous heart.
[04:58] ---
    Why are you... Why are you
    giving me something so great?
[05:03] ---
    I have been looking for a successor.
[05:07] ---
    And then, I thought it would
    be all right for you to inherit it.
[05:12] ---
    You are just a Quirkless hero fanboy,
[05:15] ---
    but you were more heroic
    than anyone else back there!
[05:24] ---
    Never mind! Well, it's up to you, though.
[05:29] ---
    What'll you do?
[05:31] ---
    He said so much to encourage me,
    and even told me his secret...
[05:37] ---
    Is there...? Of course there isn't...
[05:40] ---
    There's no reason for me to turn him down!
[05:45] ---
    I'll do it!
[05:47] ---
    An immediate reply.
    That's what I thought you'd say!
[05:52] ---
    But it was no easy task to receive his power.
[05:59] ---
    "Episode 3: Roaring Muscles"
[06:03] ---
    "Dagoba Municipal Beach Park"
[06:06] ---
    "Two days later - Early morning"
[06:10] ---
    Hey, hey, hey! This is such
    a comfy fridge to sit on!
[06:17] ---
    If you could move it even a little,
    it would be a little easier.
[06:23] ---
    Well yeah, I mean,
    you weigh 274 kilograms, right?
[06:28] ---
    No, I lost weight,
    so I'm only 255 kilograms now,
[06:31] ---
    in this form.
[06:34] ---
    Anyway, why am I dragging
    trash at the beach park?
[06:41] ---
    It's 'cause, you know,
    you're not a proper vessel.
[06:44] ---
    What you're saying now is
    the opposite of what you said before!
[06:48] ---
    I'm talking about your body.
[06:53] ---
    My Quirk, One For All,
[06:55] ---
    is the fullest physical ability
    of many people gathered into one.
[07:01] ---
    An unprepared body cannot inherit it fully.
[07:04] ---
    The limbs will come off
    and the body will explode.
[07:07] ---
    The limbs will what?!
[07:09] ---
    Then... I'm picking up trash
    in order to train my body...?
[07:15] ---
    Yes!
[07:16] ---
    But that's not all.
[07:18] ---
    After some research on
    the internet yesterday,
[07:20] ---
    I discovered that part of this beach park's
    coast has been like this for many years.
[07:28] ---
    Yeah...
[07:29] ---
    For some reason, because of
    the currents, objects drift here a lot,
[07:33] ---
    and people take advantage of
    that to hide their illegal dumping...
[07:37] ---
    The local residents don't
    come near here, either.
[07:39] ---
    Heroes these days are all
    after the showy stuff.
[07:43] ---
    Originally, being a hero
    meant doing volunteer service.
[07:47] ---
    Even if people called
    that boring or whatever.
[07:49] ---
    You can't waver from those roots.
[07:53] ---
    You will restore the
    horizon for this whole section!
[07:58] ---
    That is your first step
    toward becoming a hero!
[08:03] ---
    My first step...?
[08:06] ---
    Clean... this...
[08:09] ---
    All of it...?!
[08:11] ---
    Young Midoriya, you want
    to go to U.A., right?
[08:13] ---
    Yes... Yes!
[08:15] ---
    Because it's where you went!
[08:19] ---
    So if I'm going to go... I thought...
    it would definitely have to be U.A....
[08:23] ---
    You're a go-getter fanboy!
[08:27] ---
    But I've told you this before.
[08:29] ---
    It's not something you
    can do without a Quirk.
[08:32] ---
    It's sad, but that is what the reality is.
[08:35] ---
    And U.A.'s is the
    hardest hero course to get into.
[08:38] ---
    In other words...
[08:40] ---
    In the ten months until U.A.'s entrance exam,
    I have to complete my vessel!
[08:44] ---
    That's where this comes in!
[08:46] ---
    I came up with this:
    "Aim to Pass: American Dream Plan"!
SIGN    "Daily Schedule (Weekdays)" "4/8~5/31 (Weekends on different sheet)" "Phase 1"
[08:51] ---
    It's a training plan to help you
    finish cleaning up the beach.
SIGN    "Daily Schedule (Weekends)" "Meal Menu" "Set Plan"
[08:55] ---
    I'll have you follow this
    in every aspect of your life!
[08:59] ---
    Even sleep time is included...
[09:00] ---
    Frankly, this is a super
    hard schedule. Can you follow it?
[09:05] ---
    Of course... I have to work
    many times harder than anyone else,
[09:10] ---
    or else I can't do it!
[09:13] ---
    And so began my ten months of hell.
[09:19] ---
    Carry that to the park entrance!
[09:22] ---
    Put it in the truck!
[09:24] ---
    Depending on size and shape, the muscles
    I have to use are completely different!
[09:27] ---
    I see... This is...!
[09:29] ---
    Run! Run! Ten months will
    be over before you know it!
[09:34] ---
    Let's become athletic!
SIGN    "Aldera Junior High"
[09:38] ---
    Let's see... With the
    appearance of superpowers,
[09:41] ---
    the Building Standards Act was revised,
[09:42] ---
    --and the Minister of Land,
[09:42] ---
    --This is tough...
[09:44] ---
    --Infrastructure and Transportation's...
[09:44] ---
    --Ten months of this, huh?
SIGN    "Proposed Independent Training Menu"
[09:46] ---
    It'll be hard if I don't finish
    by a week before the exam...
[09:50] ---
    Which means, there are 294 days left...
[09:53] ---
    Taking into consideration
    a sufficient recovery period
[09:55] ---
    if I rest for two days in
    between, that gives me...
[09:59] ---
    ...about 98 days of real
    training even if I'm efficient...
[10:02] ---
    "mutter mutter mutter"
[10:03] ---
    I can get in about five hours
    of training morning and night,
[10:06] ---
    so that's 490 hours...
[10:08] ---
    Also, that beach cleanup doesn't work
    out any specific parts of the body,
[10:12] ---
    if I don't work out my whole body equally,
    then there's no way I'll make it.
[10:16] ---
    Bodybuilding to create a
    body able to adapt to any situation...
[10:18] ---
    Literally intensive training
    to become a hero...
[10:20] ---
    All Might can't stay
    and watch me the whole time...
[10:23] ---
    If I don't do as much efficient
    independent training as I can,
[10:25] ---
    there's no way I can
    catch up the way I am now...
[10:27] ---
    --Anyway, I'll have to cut--
[10:27] ---
    --Midoriya, hey!
[10:30] ---
    Did your encounter with
    the villain make you go crazy?
[10:34] ---
    It's presumptuous to think
    of getting into U.A. like that.
[10:38] ---
    Plus, I have to study for the entrance exam.
[10:40] ---
    A nervous breakdown already?
[10:42] ---
    That's scary.
[12:13] ---
    Hey, hey, what's wrong?
[12:15] ---
    There are only three months left!
[12:17] ---
    You won't make it!
[12:19] ---
    Wanna give up?
    Wanna take it easy and rest today?
[12:28] ---
    Overwork...?
[12:31] ---
    The "Aim to Pass: American Dream Plan"
    was adjusted with your body in mind
[12:35] ---
    to make sure you'd make it
    in time for the entrance exam...
[12:40] ---
    You haven't been sticking
    to the plan, have you?
[12:43] ---
    Overdoing it will have the opposite effect!
[12:45] ---
    Don't you want to get in?
[12:47] ---
    I do...
[12:49] ---
    But I can't just get in...
[12:53] ---
    I have to work a lot more
    than other people...
[12:58] ---
    or I won't be able to catch up...
[13:03] ---
    I want to be like you.
[13:07] ---
    I want to become the greatest hero, like you!
[13:13] ---
    Saving people with a fearless smile.
[13:16] ---
    Like you...!
[13:20] ---
    He's looking far into the future, huh?
[13:25] ---
    You go-getter fanboy!
[13:28] ---
    I like that!
[13:31] ---
    But if that's the case,
    then you really can't rush things now.
[13:35] ---
    But I understand your feelings.
[13:38] ---
    Leave it to this old guy to adjust your plan!
[13:40] ---
    You're not old... All Might...
[13:49] ---
    "February 26"
[13:50] ---
    And then, it was 6 a.m.
    on the day of the entrance exam.
[14:11] ---
    Hey, hey, hey...
[14:14] ---
    He even cleaned outside
    of where I told him to! Seriously?
[14:18] ---
    There's not even a speck
    of dust left! Seriously?!
[14:24] ---
    He finished at the last minute!
    More than perfectly!
[14:29] ---
    Oh my... Oh my...
[14:32] ---
    ...goodness!
[14:40] ---
    Good work.
[14:43] ---
    All Might... I did it...
[14:48] ---
    I did it!
[14:49] ---
    Yeah, you surprised me, you entertainer!
[14:54] ---
    Teenagers are amazing!
[14:57] ---
    Here, take a look.
[15:01] ---
    This is...
[15:02] ---
    It's you, ten months ago.
[15:06] ---
    You did good. You really did!
[15:11] ---
    The mirage of it is finally
    just barely visible,
[15:15] ---
    but you have certainly
    become a suitable vessel!
[15:21] ---
    I feel like I'm cheating...
[15:26] ---
    You did all this for me...
[15:30] ---
    I'm too blessed...
[15:35] ---
    What're you saying after all this time...
[15:37] ---
    It was your own hard work.
[15:40] ---
    We'll have to fix those leaky eyes of yours.
[15:42] ---
    Now, it's time for the
    award ceremony, Izuku Midoriya!
[15:46] ---
    Yes, sir!
[15:50] ---
    This is something I was once told:
[15:51] ---
    "Something that you
    receive because you're lucky
[15:54] ---
    and something that you are
    given because you are recognized
[15:56] ---
    are different in essence."
[15:59] ---
    Take that to heart.
[16:02] ---
    This is power that you earned
    because of your own effort.
[16:11] ---
    I took the reality that would
    be surprising even in comics
[16:16] ---
    in my hand...
[16:19] ---
    Eat this.
[16:21] ---
    Huh?
[16:23] ---
    It doesn't really matter what it
    is as long as you take in my DNA.
[16:27] ---
    It's too different from what I imagined!
[16:29] ---
    Now, there's no time!
[16:31] ---
    You'll be late for the exam!
[16:33] ---
    Come, come, come!
[16:45] ---
    "8:40 a.m. - The same day"
[16:48] ---
    "U.A. High School Entrance Exam Location"
[16:58] ---
    I made it...
[17:03] ---
    In the end, I didn't have time to test
    out the power I received from All Might.
[17:10] ---
    Eat this.
[17:12] ---
    I swallowed the hair,
    but did I really receive his power...?
[17:16] ---
    Outta my way, Deku!
[17:18] ---
    Kacchan!
[17:20] ---
    Don't stand in front of me. I'll kill you.
[17:24] ---
    M-Morning. L-Let's both do our best...
[17:30] ---
    Hey, isn't that Bakugo?
    The one with the sludge villain?
[17:33] ---
    Oh, he's the real thing!
[17:36] ---
    Ever since that day,
    Kacchan didn't do anything to me.
[17:42] ---
    I was just scared of him out of habit!
[17:46] ---
    I'm different from before!
[17:49] ---
    Remember these past ten months!
[17:53] ---
    Take the first step...
[17:56] ---
    ...to being a hero!
[18:00] ---
    This is it!
[18:06] ---
    Are you all right?
[18:13] ---
    It's my Quirk. Sorry for
    using it without asking first.
[18:17] ---
    But it'd be bad luck if you fell, right?
[18:21] ---
    Aren't you nervous?
[18:24] ---
    Uh...
[18:26] ---
    Let's do our best. See ya!
[18:32] ---
    I talked to a girl!
[18:34] ---
    "Didn't actually talk"
[18:43] ---
    "U.A. High School Hero Course"
    "Exam Orientation"
[18:49] ---
    For all you examinee listeners tuning in,
[18:51] ---
    welcome to my show today!
[18:54] ---
    Everybody say "hey"!
[18:57] ---
    "Silence!!"
[19:00] ---
    What a refined response.
[19:02] ---
    Then I'll quickly present to you
    the rundown on the practical exam!
[19:09] ---
    Are you ready?
[19:11] ---
    Yeah!
[19:12] ---
    "Silence!!"
[19:15] ---
    It's the Voice Hero, Present Mic! Wow...!
[19:19] ---
    I listen to him every week on the radio.
[19:21] ---
    I'm so moved!
[19:22] ---
    --All the teachers at U.A. are pro heroes!
[19:24] ---
    --Shut up.
[19:25] ---
    As it says in the application requirements,
[19:27] ---
    you listeners will be conducting
    ten-minute mock urban battles after this!
SIGN    "You Are Here"
[19:33] ---
    You can bring whatever you want with you.
[19:35] ---
    After the presentation, you'll head
    to the specified battle center, okay?
[19:39] ---
    "Silence!!"
[19:40] ---
    Okay?!
[19:42] ---
    In other words, they won't
    let you work with your friends, huh?
SIGN    "Exam Ticket" "Examinee No.: 2234" "Test Location: Battle Center B"
[19:46] ---
    Y-You're right. Even though our
    examinee numbers are consecutive,
SIGN    "Exam Ticket" "Examinee No.: 2233" "Test Location: Battle Center A"
[19:50] ---
    we're assigned to different battle centers.
[19:52] ---
    Don't look. I'll kill you.
[19:54] ---
    Damn, now I can't crush you.
[20:00] ---
    Three different types of faux villains
    are stationed in each battle center.
[20:04] ---
    You earn points for each of them
    based on their level of difficulty.
[20:08] ---
    Your goal, dear listeners,
    is to use your Quirks
[20:10] ---
    to earn points by
    immobilizing the faux villains.
[20:15] ---
    Of course, attacking other examinees
    and any other unheroic actions are prohibited!
[20:22] ---
    May I ask a question?
[20:24] ---
    Okay!
[20:26] ---
    On the printout,
    there are four types of villains.
[20:30] ---
    If that is a misprint, then U.A., the most
    prominent school in Japan, should be ashamed
[20:34] ---
    of that foolish mistake.
[20:35] ---
    We examinees are here in this place
[20:39] ---
    because we wish to be
    molded into exemplary heroes.
[20:42] ---
    In addition, you over
    there with the curly hair--
[20:46] ---
    You've been muttering this whole time.
[20:48] ---
    It's distracting!
[20:49] ---
    If you're here on a pleasure trip,
    then you should leave immediately!
[20:53] ---
    I'm sorry...
[20:56] ---
    Okay, okay, Examinee Number 7111.
[21:01] ---
    Thanks for the great message.
[21:04] ---
    The fourth type of villain
    is worth zero points.
[21:07] ---
    That guy's an obstacle, so to speak.
[21:09] ---
    There's one in every battle center--
[21:11] ---
    An obstacle that will go
    crazy in narrow spaces.
[21:14] ---
    It's not impossible to defeat,
    but there's no reason to defeat it, either.
[21:18] ---
    I recommend that you
    listeners try to avoid it.
[21:22] ---
    Thank you very much!
[21:23] ---
    Please excuse the interruption!
[21:27] ---
    I see... It's like the obstacles
    you avoid in videos games, huh?
[21:31] ---
    The whole thing is like a video game.
[21:33] ---
    That's all from me!
[21:35] ---
    Finally, I'll give you listeners
    a present--our school motto!
[21:40] ---
    The hero Napoleon Bonaparte once said:
[21:45] ---
    "A true hero is someone
    who overcomes life's misfortunes."
[21:51] ---
    Go beyond.
[21:54] ---
    Plus Ultra!
[22:00] ---
    Now, everyone, good luck suffering!
SIGN    "U.A. High School Hero Course" "Entrance Exam" "Battle Center B"
[22:11] ---
    I-It's time to do it.
[22:13] ---
    It's time to give everything I got from my
    training with All Might these past ten months.
[22:21] ---
    I will become...
[22:23] ---
    ...the hero I always dreamed of being!
[24:00] ---
    "Next time"
[24:03] ---
    The entrance exam of U.A. High School,
[24:05] ---
    the famous school that turned
    out many pro heroes, is starting.
[24:08] ---
    Leaving aside the written exam for now,
    will I be able to get through the practical exam
[24:11] ---
    with the power I only
    just received from All Might?
[24:13] ---
    Let's do our best on the entrance exam!
[24:15] ---
    Huh? Who're you?
[24:17] ---
    More importantly, I talked to a girl!
[24:20] ---
    Next time, "Start Line"!
[24:22] ---
    I, Ochaco, will have
    shiny stuff come out of my mouth!
[24:25] ---
    Go beyond!
[24:26] ---
    "Next time: Start Line"
[24:26] ---
    Plus Ultra!
