U.A. High School's hero course...
**[00:03] ---**
In a world where about 80% of the population
has some kind of superpower called a "Quirk,"
**[00:10] ---**
this prestigious school was built to raise
heroes to oppose villains and their crimes.
**[00:17] ---**
I, Izuku Midoriya, am a student at this school,
working hard to achieve my dream--
**[00:24] ---**
To become someone who
can save people with a smile...
**[00:28] ---**
Yes, this is the story of
how I became the greatest hero!
**[02:04] ---**
"Summer Vacation Hero Special:
**[02:06] ---**
"All Might Becomes a High School Teacher"
**[02:06] ---**
From Number One Hero
to U.A. High School Teacher."
**[02:10] ---**
This time, we will look back
at All Might's work and his great--
**[02:18] ---**
"Villain - Kurogiri - Quirk: Warp Gate"
**[02:20] ---**
"Villain - Tomura Shigaraki - Quirk: Decay"
**[02:21] ---**
I figured it out.
**[02:24] ---**
I know why the hero killer pisses me off
**[02:27] ---**
and why those U.A. brats irritate me.
**[02:31] ---**
It's all because of All Might.
**[02:33] ---**
It's because he's always
smiling thoughtlessly,
**[02:37] ---**
as if there was no one he couldn't save.
**[02:40] ---**
Because he's always smiling thoughtlessly...
**[02:48] ---**
Izuku Midoriya.
**[02:50] ---**
He was Quirkless until
his third year of middle school,
**[02:52] ---**
but then he suddenly manifested a Quirk.
**[02:55] ---**
In April of this year, after enrolling at
U.A. High School, he distinguished himself,
**[02:59] ---**
finishing in the top eight
at the U.A. sports festival.
**[03:03] ---**
And then,
**[03:04] ---**
during the Hosu incident, he and his friends
fought against Hero Killer: Stain, and won.
**[03:09] ---**
At that time, the hero killer saved his life.
**[03:16] ---**
The boy acknowledged by the hero killer,
the man seeking true heroes.
**[03:23] ---**
The complete opposite of Tomura Shigaraki...
**[03:27] ---**
I'll make it myself--
**[03:29] ---**
A world without All Might.
**[03:32] ---**
And I'll show everyone...
**[03:35] ---**
...just how fragile that
so-called justice is.
**[03:37] ---**
"Game Start"
**[03:42] ---**
U.A. High School has finished
all classes for the first semester
**[03:46] ---**
and started summer vacation.
**[03:48] ---**
"Izuku Midoriya - Quirk: One For All"
**[03:49] ---**
But that didn't mean
I had time to play.
**[03:51] ---**
To prepare for the upcoming
training camp in the woods,
**[03:54] ---**
I continued my independent training.
**[04:00] ---**
Can you see that?
**[04:01] ---**
He's already saved a hundred people!
**[04:03] ---**
That's crazy! It hasn't
even been ten minutes!
**[04:06] ---**
That's crazy!
**[04:10] ---**
He's laughing!
**[04:13] ---**
It's fine now. Why?
**[04:16] ---**
Because I am here.
**[04:20] ---**
All Might...
**[04:23] ---**
There are still times when
I can't believe it...
**[04:26] ---**
That All Might acknowledged me
and transferred his Quirk to me...
**[04:34] ---**
"Denki Kaminari - Quirk: Electrification"
"Minoru Mineta - Quirk: Pop Off"
**[04:35] ---**
Mineta? Kaminari?
**[04:37] ---**
Hey, Midoriya!
**[04:38] ---**
Let's go to the pool!
**[04:40] ---**
The pool?
**[04:41] ---**
Yeah, before the summer training camp--
**[04:44] ---**
Let's train together!
**[04:50] ---**
Vlad, about the strength increasing
part of the summer training camp...
**[04:50] ---**
"Pro Hero - Vlad King"
**[04:54] ---**
Eraser, before that, can you confirm
the Quirks of the Class A students for me?

**[07:35] ---**
We should also look at Class B's Quirks--
**[07:38] ---**
Excuse us.
**[07:40] ---**
What is it, you three?
**[07:41] ---**
Mr. Aizawa, about the form we turned in
the day before yesterday to use the pool...
**[07:47] ---**
Oh right, the school granted permission.
**[07:49] ---**
You can use the pool until 5 p.m.
**[07:51] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[07:52] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[07:54] ---**
You said you wanted to use
the pool for endurance training, right?
**[07:58] ---**
Do your best.
**[07:59] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[08:01] ---**
Using the pool for endurance training, huh?
**[08:03] ---**
What a great idea, Mineta!
**[08:05] ---**
If we're at school,
then we can use our Quirks, too.
**[08:08] ---**
It's perfect for training!
**[08:11] ---**
We're in the hero course, you know.
**[08:13] ---**
Go beyond!
**[08:14] ---**
Plus Ultra!
**[08:17] ---**
Ultra!
**[08:18] ---**
It was the right choice to invite
the diligent Midoriya, Mineta.
**[08:22] ---**
If it had just been us, we might not have
gotten permission to use the pool, huh?
**[08:25] ---**
By the way, there's
no problem with *that*, is there?
**[08:28] ---**
Of course not. I overheard by accident--
**[08:32] ---**
After finals were over...
**[08:34] ---**
We have to refrain from
taking long trips over the summer?
**[08:38] ---**
Apparently, it's a request from the school.
**[08:40] ---**
That's too bad. I was supposed
to go to Venice with my parents.
**[08:45] ---**
How bourgeois!
**[08:46] ---**
Aw, I bought a new swimsuit, too!
**[08:50] ---**
It can't be helped.
**[08:51] ---**
We were attacked by
the League of Villains before.
**[08:54] ---**
Even so, I wanna play! I wanna go somewhere!
**[08:57] ---**
Then, do you wanna meet up at
the school pool over summer vacation?
**[09:02] ---**
Yeah, if we're using the school pool, then
I'm sure the teachers will give us permission.
**[09:06] ---**
Good idea! Then we won't have
to spend any money, either.
**[09:09] ---**
It's better than being cooped up at home.
**[09:12] ---**
Then, I'll go get permission from the school.
**[09:16] ---**
That's what I heard!
**[09:17] ---**
Then we have no choice but to go!
**[09:20] ---**
Let's find the new charm of
the girls in a different setting!
**[09:24] ---**
Come, let us go...
**[09:26] ---**
...to our paradise!
**[09:31] ---**
You're late!
**[09:33] ---**
Hey, hey, hey!
**[09:35] ---**
Why are you guys here?
**[09:37] ---**
Since we're doing
endurance training at the pool,
**[09:39] ---**
I messaged everyone
to see if they wanted to come.
**[09:41] ---**
Is that what happened?
**[09:43] ---**
You're too diligent, Midoriya!
**[09:44] ---**
Calm down, Kaminari.
**[09:46] ---**
There are definitely girls in swimsuits here!
**[09:50] ---**
I'll burn the sight into my eyes!
**[09:52] ---**
The sight of their new swimsuits!
**[09:54] ---**
Oh, Mineta.
**[09:56] ---**
Kaminari, you came, too?
**[09:58] ---**
What's with those swimsuits?
**[09:59] ---**
They should be wearing bikinis.
**[10:01] ---**
School-issue swimsuits are pretty good, too.
**[10:03] ---**
You're okay with anything?
**[10:05] ---**
Kaminari, Mineta!
**[10:07] ---**
It was a great idea to suggest
endurance training at school!
**[10:11] ---**
I'm impressed!
**[10:13] ---**
Now, why don't you come
and sweat with the rest of us?
**[10:18] ---**
N-No, wait...
**[10:19] ---**
W-Wait...
**[10:21] ---**
Wait a minute!

All right, let's take a 15-minute break!

I brought these for everyone! Drink up!
**[10:50] ---**
Oh!
**[10:51] ---**
Just what I'd expect from the class rep!
**[10:52] ---**
I feel alive again. Thanks!
**[10:57] ---**
Why are the girls playing around?
**[10:59] ---**
They got permission
to use the pool for sunbathing.
**[11:03] ---**
--It's too hard... too hard... too hard...
**[11:03] ---**
--Mineta, why did you apply
to use it for endurance training?
**[11:07] ---**
--It's too hard... too hard... too hard...
**[11:07] ---**
--We might not have
gotten permission otherwise!
**[11:10] ---**
You've been working out, huh?
**[11:12] ---**
Yeah, I've been working out ever
since summer vacation started.
**[11:15] ---**
We must do our utmost.
**[11:20] ---**
Midoriya.
**[11:21] ---**
You need to take a break.
**[11:23] ---**
Thanks, Iida.
**[11:29] ---**
What?
**[11:31] ---**
Well, I just thought it was strange.
**[11:35] ---**
During the entrance exams, I didn't think
I'd end up being such good friends with you.
**[11:41] ---**
Frankly, I didn't think
much of you back then.
**[11:45] ---**
But during the practical exam...
**[11:55] ---**
Smash...!
**[12:02] ---**
...you prioritized saving
Uraraka over passing the exam.
**[12:08] ---**
How can a hero course reject people
who save others and do the right thing?
**[12:18] ---**
Come, Young Midoriya.
**[12:22] ---**
This is your hero academia!
**[12:27] ---**
I was so happy.
**[12:29] ---**
It had always been my dream
to attend All Might's alma mater, U.A.
**[12:35] ---**
But when I was told that whoever was last
place in the fitness test would be expelled,
**[12:40] ---**
I thought it was over for me.
**[12:43] ---**
Even so, you didn't give up.
**[12:46] ---**
Not during the combat training, either.
**[12:48] ---**
Detroit...
**[12:53] ---**
...Smash!
**[13:01] ---**
What the--?
**[13:03] ---**
Improvised special move--
**[13:05] ---**
Comet Home Run!
**[13:09] ---**
You call that a home run?!
**[13:15] ---**
Retrieved!
**[13:17] ---**
This was all...
**[13:19] ---**
I could think of...
**[13:22] ---**
It's true that your methods were reckless,
**[13:25] ---**
but I could feel your tenacity, Midoriya.
**[13:29] ---**
I think that's what Bakugo and I lost to.
**[13:33] ---**
That's...
**[13:35] ---**
I'm here thanks to the
help of many different people.
**[13:39] ---**
That's why I need to work harder!
**[13:41] ---**
Of course!
**[13:43] ---**
Otherwise there's no way
I'd lose to a damn nerd like you!
**[13:48] ---**
K-Kacchan!
**[13:49] ---**
I got your message, but sorry I'm late!
**[13:51] ---**
It took some time to get Bakugo to come.
**[13:54] ---**
Is that what happened?
**[13:55] ---**
Hey, damn Deku!
**[13:57] ---**
You wanna decide things right now? Huh?
**[14:01] ---**
No... that's not...
**[14:02] ---**
It's true that just training
isn't that interesting.
**[14:06] ---**
Everyone, do you want to see which of
the boys can swim 50 meters the fastest?
**[14:11] ---**
Yeah!
**[14:12] ---**
Sounds fun!
**[14:13] ---**
Let's do it!
**[14:14] ---**
Iida, we will help, too.
**[14:18] ---**
Thanks!
**[14:19] ---**
What about Quirks? Can we use them?
**[14:21] ---**
We're at school,
so there shouldn't be a problem.
**[14:23] ---**
However, you cannot cause
damage to any people or buildings!
**[14:28] ---**
I'll crush you, Deku!
**[14:32] ---**
Of course, I'll crush you, too,
Half-and-Half Bastard!
**[14:39] ---**
Then, on your marks...
**[14:41] ---**
Get set...
**[14:44] ---**
Explosive Speed Turbo!
**[14:48] ---**
How was that, you extras?!
**[14:50] ---**
What do you mean, "How was that"?!
**[14:51] ---**
You didn't even swim!
**[14:52] ---**
It's freestyle!
**[14:55] ---**
On your marks...
**[14:57] ---**
Get set...
**[15:01] ---**
Hi!
**[15:08] ---**
You're supposed to be swimming!
**[15:10] ---**
On your marks...
**[15:13] ---**
Get set...
**[15:18] ---**
You too, Iida?!
**[15:20] ---**
One For All...
**[15:22] ---**
...Full Cowling!
**[15:38] ---**
Wow!
**[15:39] ---**
Good job, Midoriya!
**[15:41] ---**
Iida, you were so close!
**[15:42] ---**
You beat me, Midoriya.
**[15:44] ---**
Iida, you were amazing, too.
**[15:47] ---**
Midoriya...
**[15:49] ---**
If you have something from
the number one hero, then I...
**[15:54] ---**
...have even more reason to beat you.
**[15:58] ---**
By winning first place without
using my damn old man's Quirk,
**[16:02] ---**
I'll reject him completely.
**[16:05] ---**
You want to win with just
half your strength?!
**[16:08] ---**
You haven't put a single
scratch on me yet, you know!
**[16:14] ---**
Come at with me with everything you've got!
**[16:18] ---**
It's *your* power, isn't it?!
**[16:26] ---**
I want... to be a hero, too...!
**[16:37] ---**
You must be Hero Killer: Stain!
**[16:40] ---**
I am the younger brother
of a hero you attacked.
**[16:45] ---**
The younger brother of
a most excellent older brother!
**[16:49] ---**
I have come to stop you in his place!
**[16:57] ---**
You and your brother are both weak.
**[17:01] ---**
Because you're fakes.
**[17:03] ---**
Smash!
**[17:08] ---**
I came to save you, Iida!
**[17:11] ---**
You made me late.
**[17:14] ---**
The two of us will protect them!
**[17:17] ---**
Why are you two...
**[17:19] ---**
Why...
**[17:21] ---**
Please, stop!
**[17:23] ---**
I've inherited my brother's name.
**[17:27] ---**
Please stop...
**[17:29] ---**
I'm... already...
**[17:33] ---**
If you want us to stop, then stand up!
**[17:36] ---**
Look properly at what you want to be!
**[17:40] ---**
Todoroki, I vow once more
**[17:44] ---**
that I will become a hero
like my elder brother.
**[17:47] ---**
I will also become the hero I wish to be...
**[17:51] ---**
I will also become a hero--
**[17:52] ---**
A hero like All Might,
who saves people with a smile...

U.A. High School was attacked by the League
of Villains during a rescue training session
**[18:05] ---**
during what became known
as the USJ incident...
**[18:08] ---**
There were indiscriminate attacks by Hero Killer:
Stain and the League of Villains in Hosu City,
**[18:13] ---**
which became known as the Hosu incident...
**[18:15] ---**
And then, the other day,
**[18:16] ---**
Tomura Shigaraki, thought to be
the leader of the League of Villains
**[18:21] ---**
suddenly appeared before Izuku Midoriya,
a student in the hero course at U.A. High...
**[18:25] ---**
There have not been any significant moves
made by the League of Villains since.
**[18:29] ---**
However, I'm sure they
are wriggling under the surface.
**[18:34] ---**
I know.
**[18:35] ---**
The police are working with heroes to gather
information about the League of Villains.
**[18:40] ---**
"Police Officer - Naomasa Tsukauchi"

When that investigation bears fruit,

we'll be counting on you, All Might.

Is that all right?
**[18:57] ---**
Yup.
**[18:57] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:58] ---**
Hey, Half-and-Half Bastard!
**[19:00] ---**
Don't hold back like
you did at the sports festival.
**[19:04] ---**
Come at me seriously!
**[19:06] ---**
All right.
**[19:07] ---**
You too, damn Deku!
**[19:09] ---**
A-All right, Kacchan.
**[19:12] ---**
Then, the 50-m freestyle
final will begin now!
**[19:16] ---**
Go, Bakugo!
**[19:17] ---**
Don't kill the other guys!
**[19:18] ---**
Todoroki, don't lose!
**[19:20] ---**
Do your best, Deku!
**[19:22] ---**
Everyone, fight!
**[19:23] ---**
On your marks...
**[19:26] ---**
I'll fly across all at once!
**[19:28] ---**
I'll slide through.
**[19:30] ---**
I'll swim to the finish
with everything I've got!
**[19:33] ---**
Get set...
**[19:38] ---**
Wh-What?
**[19:39] ---**
Their Quirks were erased?
**[19:41] ---**
It's 5 p.m.
**[19:42] ---**
Your pool use time has now ended.
**[19:45] ---**
Hurry up and go home.
**[19:47] ---**
Come on, Mr. Aizawa!
**[19:48] ---**
We just got to the good part!
**[19:51] ---**
Did you say something?
**[19:53] ---**
Nothing, sir!
**[19:56] ---**
Damn it!
**[19:57] ---**
Stopping the race like that!
**[19:59] ---**
I know how you feel, but calm down.
**[20:02] ---**
Midoriya and Todoroki are
classmates--and friends--right?
**[20:05] ---**
Shut up!
**[20:06] ---**
No matter who it is, I won't let them
catch up to me, let alone get ahead of me!
**[20:11] ---**
Isn't that what it means
to be better than All Might--
**[20:17] ---**
To be better than the number one hero?
**[20:21] ---**
"Dagoba Municipal Beach Park"
**[20:24] ---**
You have ten months
until the U.A. entrance exam.
**[20:27] ---**
You must build up your body by then!
**[20:32] ---**
Young Midoriya?
**[20:34] ---**
All Might, why are you here?
**[20:37] ---**
What about you?
**[20:40] ---**
I'm here...
**[20:42] ---**
You can become a hero.
**[20:46] ---**
Young man, I will tell you the truth.
**[20:50] ---**
My Quirk was passed on
to me like a sacred torch.
**[20:55] ---**
The power to transfer power...
**[20:57] ---**
That is the Quirk I inherited!
**[21:00] ---**
I was crowned with "One For All"!
**[21:05] ---**
And next, it is your turn.
**[21:10] ---**
...because this is where I started.
**[21:17] ---**
Young Midoriya, the summer
training camp will be tough.
**[21:20] ---**
Do your best.
**[21:21] ---**
I will!
**[22:53] ---**
The location for the
training camp has been changed?
**[22:56] ---**
It's a measure we're taking to be cautious
**[22:58] ---**
since information may be
getting leaked to the villains.
**[23:00] ---**
Even within the school, only the
upper management is aware of this.
**[23:03] ---**
Please keep this quiet.
**[23:05] ---**
Even from the students.
**[23:11] ---**
There's something I'd like you to prepare...
**[23:14] ---**
That's right, it's the start of a new game...
**[23:20] ---**
"Preview"
**[23:20] ---**
It's the preview!
**[23:21] ---**
Summer training camp has started.
**[23:23] ---**
What appeared in front
of us eager students was...
**[23:27] ---**
...a beast!
**[23:29] ---**
Next time, "Wild, Wild Pussycats."
**[23:31] ---**
"Next time: Wild, Wild Pussycats"
**[23:31] ---**
Go beyond!
**[23:33] ---**
Plus Ultra!
**[23:35] ---**
**[23:37] ---**
**[23:39] ---**
