[00:01] ---
    The cumulative results
    for the practical exam are out!
[00:04] ---
    I can't believe he got
    first place with no rescue points.
[00:08] ---
    The faux villains acquire
    their targets and draw near them.
[00:11] ---
    In the second half,
    as others were slowing down,
[00:13] ---
    he used his flashy Quirk to keep bringing
    them close and then counterattacking.
[00:16] ---
    It's the result of his toughness.
[00:20] ---
    In contrast, there's the 7th place
    student with zero villain points.
[00:23] ---
    There have been other examinees
    who took on the large villain in the past,
[00:27] ---
    but it's been a while since
    I last saw someone blow it away.
[00:31] ---
    But to suffer such a serious
    injury from his own attack...
[00:34] ---
    It's like he's a young child
    whose Quirk just manifested.
[02:13] ---
    The night after I opened
    my acceptance letter,
[02:17] ---
    that person contacted me.
[02:22] ---
    All Might!
[02:24] ---
    Who's that?!
[02:25] ---
    All Might?
[02:25] ---
    No way! Where?
[02:28] ---
    Repeat after me. "I had the wrong person."
[02:30] ---
    Oh, I had the wrong person!
[02:33] ---
    Aw, what?
[02:34] ---
    I was hoping to see him...
[02:39] ---
    Congrats on getting accepted.
[02:41] ---
    Th-Th-Thank you very much!
[02:44] ---
    Just so you know, I didn't tell
    the school about my connection to you.
[02:49] ---
    You're the type that would
    think that's cheating, right?
[02:53] ---
    I wasn't one of the judges.
[02:55] ---
    Th-Thank you for your concern!
[02:59] ---
    But I was surprised to find out
    that you were a teacher at U.A.
[03:03] ---
    So that's why you came here, huh?
[03:05] ---
    I mean, your agency is in
    Roppongi in Minato, Tokyo at--
[03:08] ---
    Stop that!
[03:11] ---
    I couldn't tell anyone
    before the school announced it.
[03:16] ---
    I just happened to be offered a job from
    U.A. when I was searching for a successor.
[03:21] ---
    I have been looking for a successor.
[03:25] ---
    I see. He was originally planning
    on choosing one of the students.
[03:30] ---
    One of the students gifted
    with an amazing Quirk.
[03:36] ---
    My body broke with one kick
    and one punch of One For All.
[03:41] ---
    I can't control it at all.
[03:44] ---
    That can't be helped.
[03:46] ---
    It's like if you asked a person
    who suddenly grew a tail to do a trick,
[03:50] ---
    they wouldn't even be able to control it.
[03:54] ---
    Wait, did you know that would happen?!
[03:57] ---
    Well, there wasn't any time...
[04:00] ---
    But it turned out all right.
    It turned out "all might"!
[04:05] ---
    Right now, you're either
    at a hundred percent or zero.
[04:08] ---
    But once you can control it,
[04:10] ---
    you'll be able to you'll be able
    to adjust to what your body can handle.
[04:15] ---
    Control?!
[04:16] ---
    The more you train a vessel,
[04:19] ---
    the more you'll be able
    to move the power freely.
[04:23] ---
    Like this.
[04:27] ---
    Wait, is that All Might?!
[04:29] ---
    No way! When did he get here?!
[04:31] ---
    Let's go, Young Midoriya!
[04:32] ---
    Y-Yes, sir!
[04:37] ---
    The flame I passed on to you is still small,
[04:41] ---
    but in the future, it'll be exposed
    to wind and rain and grow even bigger.
[04:46] ---
    And then, I will slowly become weak
    and disappear, and I will finish my job.
[04:54] ---
    Yeah, that's deep.
[04:56] ---
    "Episode 5: What I Can Do for Now"
[05:01] ---
    "April"
[05:03] ---
    Izuku, do you have tissue?
[05:04] ---
    Yeah.
[05:05] ---
    And your handkerchief?
    What about your handkerchief? Your hanky?
[05:08] ---
    I have it! I'm going to be late.
[05:10] ---
    I have to hurry.
[05:11] ---
    Izuku!
[05:12] ---
    What is it?!
[05:16] ---
    You're really cool.
[05:20] ---
    That was the beginning
    of my high school career.
[05:26] ---
    I'm off!
[05:30] ---
    The acceptance rate for
    U.A. High's hero course
[05:33] ---
    is less than one in three hundred every year.
[05:36] ---
    Other than the four people
    admitted through recommendations,
[05:38] ---
    36 are admitted through the regular exam.
[05:41] ---
    Those 36 are split into only
    two classes, with 18 in each.
[05:44] ---
    Class 1-A... 1-A... This place's too big...
[05:49] ---
    There it is!
[05:52] ---
    The door's huge!
[05:53] ---
    Is it for accessibility...?
[05:56] ---
    The elite chosen from
    the huge number at the exam...
[06:03] ---
    I hope I'm not in the
    same class as the scary peopl--
[06:07] ---
    Don't put your feet on the desk!
[06:09] ---
    Huh?
[06:10] ---
    Don't you think that's rude
    to the U.A. upperclassmen
[06:13] ---
    and the people who made the desk?
[06:15] ---
    Nope. What junior high did
    you go to, you side character?
[06:19] ---
    The top two?
[06:22] ---
    I attended Somei Private Academy.
    My name is Tenya Iida.
[06:26] ---
    Somei? So you're a damn elite, huh?
[06:29] ---
    Looks like I'll have fun crushing you.
[06:31] ---
    "Crushing"?
[06:33] ---
    That's cruel. Do you truly aim to be a hero?
[06:39] ---
    You're...
[06:42] ---
    Oh, um...
[06:44] ---
    Good morning!
[06:45] ---
    I am from Somei Private Academy. My name is--
[06:47] ---
    I heard!
[06:49] ---
    I'm Midoriya. Nice to meet you, Iida.
[06:54] ---
    Midoriya, you realized there was something
    more to that practical exam, didn't you?
[07:00] ---
    I had no idea...
[07:02] ---
    I misjudged you!
[07:04] ---
    I hate to admit it, but
    you are better than me.
[07:08] ---
    Sorry. I actually didn't realize anything.
[07:10] ---
    Oh, that curly hair!
    You're the plain-looking one!
[07:14] ---
    --You passed, just like Present Mic said!
[07:15] ---
    --It's the nice person!
[07:16] ---
    --She looks good in a uniform...
[07:18] ---
    --Of course you did! Your punch was amazing!
[07:21] ---
    --Oh, well, um, it was thanks to you going
    to speak with him directly that I, uh...
[07:21] ---
    --Break! Break! Bre--
[07:25] ---
    Huh? How did you know about that?
[07:27] ---
    Oh, uh, that's because...
[07:30] ---
    I can't believe we have two students
    from our school matriculating into U.A.!
[07:34] ---
    Especially you, Midoriya. It's a miracle!
[07:41] ---
    What dirty tricks did
    you use to get in, huh?!
[07:45] ---
    "The first student from
    his school to go to U.A."
[07:48] ---
    My future plan has already
    been torn to pieces.
[07:51] ---
    I told you to go somewhere else!
[07:56] ---
    Kacchan.
[07:58] ---
    Someone told me...
[08:01] ---
    "You can become a hero"...
[08:04] ---
    That it was because of my own effort...
[08:06] ---
    Th-That's why...
[08:09] ---
    I'm going...!
[08:13] ---
    How dare he defy me?
[08:16] ---
    Something's definitely up.
[08:18] ---
    I wonder if today's just the
    entrance ceremony and orientation?
[08:21] ---
    I wonder what our teacher's like?
[08:23] ---
    --Aren't you nervous?
[08:23] ---
    --S-So close!
[08:24] ---
    Go somewhere else if you
    want to play at being friends.
[08:33] ---
    This is the hero course.
[08:38] ---
    S-Something's here?!
[08:42] ---
    Okay, it took eight seconds
    before you were quiet.
[08:46] ---
    Time is limited.
    You kids are not rational enough.
[08:50] ---
    A teacher?
[08:52] ---
    Which means, that person's a pro hero, too?
[08:55] ---
    But I've never seen a hero
    who looked that worn out before.
[08:59] ---
    I'm your homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa.
[09:02] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[09:03] ---
    Homeroom teacher?!
[09:06] ---
    It's kind of sudden, but put
    this on and go out onto the field.
SIGN    "Teacher Directory"
[09:12] ---
    The U.A. system does not
    follow the beaten path.
[09:18] ---
    Depending on the homeroom teacher,
    even the first day can be...
[09:22] ---
    A Quirk assessment test?!
[09:24] ---
    What about the entrance ceremony?
    The orientation?
[09:27] ---
    If you're going to become a hero,
    you don't have time for such leisurely events.
[09:33] ---
    U.A.'s selling point is how
    unrestricted its school traditions are.
[09:37] ---
    That's also how the teachers
    run their classes.
[09:41] ---
    You kids have been doing
    these since junior high, too, right?
[09:45] ---
    Physical fitness tests where you
    weren't allowed to use your Quirks.
[09:49] ---
    The country still uses averages taken from
    results from students not using their Quirks.
[09:54] ---
    It's not rational.
[09:56] ---
    Well, the Ministry of
    Education is procrastinating.
[09:59] ---
    Bakugo, you finished at the
    top of the practical exam, right?
[10:04] ---
    In junior high, what was your
    best result for the softball throw?
[10:08] ---
    67 meters.
[10:10] ---
    Then, try doing it with your Quirk.
[10:14] ---
    You can do whatever you want
    as long as you stay in the circle.
[10:16] ---
    Hurry up. Give it all you've got.
[10:20] ---
    Then, well...
[10:23] ---
    I'll add a blast to the pitch.
[10:27] ---
    Die...!
[10:33] ---
    Die?
[10:34] ---
    Know your own maximum first.
[10:41] ---
    That is the most rational way
    to form the foundation of a hero.
[10:46] ---
    750 meters? Seriously?
[10:49] ---
    What's this? It looks fun!
[10:51] ---
    We can use our Quirks as much as we want!
    As expected from the hero course!
[10:56] ---
    "It looks fun," huh?
[10:59] ---
    You have three years to become a hero.
[11:01] ---
    Will you have an attitude
    like that the whole time?
[11:06] ---
    All right. Whoever comes
    in last place in all eight tests
[11:10] ---
    will be judged to have no potential
    and will be punished with expulsion.
[11:14] ---
    Huh?!
[11:17] ---
    Aizawa, huh?
[11:19] ---
    "Name: Shota Aizawa -
    Erasure Hero: Eraser Head"
[11:19] ---
    He'll be facing a lot of
    suffering from the start.
[11:25] ---
    Punished with expulsion?!
[11:27] ---
    Oh no... This is bad... In all eight tests?
[11:31] ---
    I can only use One For All at
    either a hundred or zero percent.
[11:35] ---
    I can't control it yet...
[11:38] ---
    We're free to do what we want
    about the circumstances of our students.
[11:43] ---
    Welcome to U.A.'s hero course!
[11:48] ---
    A huge test on the first day of school?
[11:51] ---
    What am I going to do?!
[12:04] ---
    Last place will be expelled?
[12:06] ---
    But it's the first day of school!
[12:08] ---
    No, even if it wasn't the
    first day of school, this is too unfair!
[12:10] ---
    Natural disasters, big accidents,
[12:14] ---
    and selfish villains.
[12:16] ---
    Calamities whose time
    or place can't be predicted.
[12:19] ---
    Japan is covered with unfairness.
[12:23] ---
    Heroes are the ones
    who reverse those situations.
[12:26] ---
    If you wanted to go talk with your friends
    at Mickey D's after school, too bad.
[12:30] ---
    For the next three years, U.A. will do all it
    can to give you one hardship after another.
[12:35] ---
    Go beyond. Plus Ultra.
[12:41] ---
    Overcome it with all you've got.
[12:46] ---
    This is too serious to be hazing.
[12:48] ---
    However, this is the best of the best.
    There is no choice but to do it.
[12:52] ---
    This isn't all I've got.
[12:55] ---
    All right, demonstration's over.
[12:58] ---
    The real thing starts now.
[13:01] ---
    "Test 1: 50-meter dash"
[13:04] ---
    On your mark...
[13:05] ---
    Get set...
[13:11] ---
    3.04 seconds.
[13:15] ---
    For 50 meters, I can only
    go up to third gear...
[13:18] ---
    "Tenya Iida"
[13:19] ---
    Tenya Iida. Quirk: Engine.
[13:22] ---
    As you can see, his legs are fast.
[13:24] ---
    Well, he's like a fish in water.
[13:27] ---
    It'll be worth seeing what others do.
[13:29] ---
    "Tsuyu Asui: 5.58 seconds"
[13:31] ---
    Ribbit.
[13:32] ---
    Lighten up my clothes and shoes...
[13:36] ---
    "Ochaco Uraraka"
[13:37] ---
    Ochaco Uraraka. Quirk: Zero Gravity!
[13:41] ---
    Get set...
[13:43] ---
    She can nullify the gravitational
    pull of any object she touches.
[13:47] ---
    However, if she goes over capacity,
    she'll get really nauseous.
[13:51] ---
    5.49 seconds.
[13:53] ---
    7.15 seconds.
[13:56] ---
    Oh, but that's faster than
    I was in junior high!
[14:00] ---
    Everyone, you're not being creative enough.
[14:02] ---
    --On your mark...
[14:03] ---
    --I'll show you what it's like...
[14:04] ---
    --Get set...
[14:06] ---
    ...to be allowed to use your Quirk!
[14:08] ---
    "Yuga Aoyama"
[14:09] ---
    Yuga Aogama. Quirk: Navel Laser!
[14:13] ---
    He can shoot a laser from his bellybutton.
[14:17] ---
    He's limited by the amount
    of time he can shoot continuously.
[14:20] ---
    5.51 seconds.
[14:23] ---
    If I shoot for more than a second,
    I get a stomachache.
[14:27] ---
    What the heck?
[14:29] ---
    Looking at the upper limit of your Quirks
    and the room for growth in each result,
[14:33] ---
    it becomes clear what you can and can't do.
[14:38] ---
    On your mark...
[14:40] ---
    Get set...
[14:41] ---
    That will connect to the
    creativity needed for you to survive.
[14:45] ---
    Explosive speed!
[14:49] ---
    4.13 seconds.
[14:51] ---
    "Katsuki Bakugo"
[14:52] ---
    Katsuki Bakugo. Quirk: Explosion!
[14:56] ---
    7.02 seconds.
[14:58] ---
    When I use both hands, the force disperses...
[15:03] ---
    Deku is...
[15:05] ---
    There are seven more tests.
[15:07] ---
    I'm sure everyone will use their Quirks
    to produce some extraordinary results.
[15:13] ---
    On the other hand, I have this power
    that will break my body if I use it once.
[15:18] ---
    Control... Control...
[15:20] ---
    Even if I have the image in my head,
    when I have to actually use it...
[15:25] ---
    The trick to controlling it is...
[15:30] ---
    ...feeling!
[15:31] ---
    Wow, that's All Might for you!
[15:34] ---
    You've already pulled out the 100%.
[15:37] ---
    It destroyed me, though.
[15:38] ---
    But now that you have, it'll be easy.
[15:40] ---
    You should've already grasped the feeling.
[15:42] ---
    What was it like?
[15:45] ---
    It was like a "bzzt" or a "whoosh"... Um...
[15:49] ---
    I know! Like an egg put into a microwave!
[15:55] ---
    That's boring, but unique!
[15:57] ---
    If that's the image you have,
[15:59] ---
    then lower the wattage,
[16:00] ---
    or shorten the cook time.
[16:02] ---
    Anything's fine, just focus on
    the image of the egg not exploding.
[16:08] ---
    The image...?
[16:09] ---
    You have three weeks until school starts.
[16:12] ---
    Keep focusing on that image.
[16:15] ---
    It won't happen overnight,
[16:17] ---
    but I'm sure you will be
    able to do it someday.
[16:26] ---
    "Test 2: Grip strength"
[16:29] ---
    The image of the egg not exploding...
[16:40] ---
    Wow!
[16:41] ---
    540 kilograms? What are you, a gorilla?
[16:44] ---
    Oh, an octopus?
[16:46] ---
    Octopuses are sexy.
[16:50] ---
    "Test 3: Standing long jump"
[17:01] ---
    Control...
[17:02] ---
    "Test 4: Repeated side steps"
[17:08] ---
    "Test 5: Ball throw"
[17:21] ---
    Infinity?!
[17:22] ---
    That's amazing! She got "infinity"!
[17:26] ---
    This is bad. It's not something
    simple that I can just do right away.
[17:30] ---
    Everyone's leaving at
    least one amazing result...
[17:34] ---
    All that's left is this,
    the long-distance run, sit-ups,
[17:37] ---
    and the seated toe-touch.
[17:39] ---
    It's now or never.
[17:41] ---
    At this rate, I'll be last.
[17:45] ---
    It doesn't look good for
    Midoriya if he continues like this.
[17:48] ---
    Huh? Of course not.
    He's a Quirkless small fry, you know.
[17:52] ---
    Quirkless?! Are you not aware
    of what he did in the entrance exam?
[17:55] ---
    Huh?
[17:57] ---
    It's about time, huh?
[18:02] ---
    Izuku! You're really cool.
[18:05] ---
    You can become a hero.
[18:14] ---
    I'll definitely become one!
[18:21] ---
    46 meters.
[18:25] ---
    I was definitely trying to use it just now...
[18:29] ---
    I erased your Quirk.
[18:34] ---
    That entrance exam was
    definitely not rational enough.
[18:38] ---
    Even a kid like you was accepted.
[18:43] ---
    You erased my Quirk?
[18:45] ---
    Those goggles... I see!
[18:49] ---
    You can erase other people's Quirks
    with your Quirk just by looking at them.
[18:53] ---
    The Erasure Hero: Eraser Head!
[18:57] ---
    Eraser? I don't know him.
[19:00] ---
    I've heard of him. He's an underground hero.
[19:03] ---
    He doesn't like media attention
    because he says it hinders his work.
[19:09] ---
    That's right, Young Midoriya.
    He and I don't get along.
[19:15] ---
    From what I can tell,
    you can't control your Quirk, can you?
[19:19] ---
    Do you intend to become incapacitated
    again and have someone save you?
[19:24] ---
    Th-That's not my intention--
[19:27] ---
    Whatever your intention,
[19:29] ---
    I'm saying that's what those
    around you will be forced to do.
[19:34] ---
    In the past, there was an
    oppressively passionate hero
[19:37] ---
    who saved over a thousand people
    by himself and created a legend.
[19:42] ---
    Even if you have the same reckless valor,
[19:44] ---
    you'll just be decked and turn into
    a useless doll after saving one person.
[19:48] ---
    Izuku Midoriya. With your power,
    you can't become a hero.
[20:03] ---
    I've returned your Quirk.
[20:05] ---
    You have two turns for the ball throw.
[20:07] ---
    Hurry up and get it over with.
[20:14] ---
    --It looks like he received some advice.
[20:15] ---
    --Are you worried about him?
[20:16] ---
    --Probably just telling him he's expelled.
[20:17] ---
    I'm...
[20:18] ---
    ...not at all.
[20:20] ---
    Who are you?
[20:21] ---
    What should I do? Which should I choose?
[20:24] ---
    Will he incorrigibly prepare for
    an honorable defeat here
[20:27] ---
    by using all his strength,
[20:29] ---
    or become intimidated
    and settle into last place?
[20:32] ---
    No matter which he chooses,
    he has no potential.
[20:36] ---
    I still can't control my power.
[20:39] ---
    Should I let everything
    I can do hang on this one throw?
[20:42] ---
    Even All Might said that
    it wouldn't happen overnight.
[20:47] ---
    This is no good! If that's my only choice,
    then I just have to go all out!
[20:51] ---
    Zero potential.
[20:57] ---
    It's just as Mr. Aizawa says.
[21:02] ---
    At this rate, there's no
    way I'll become a hero.
[21:07] ---
    Hey, hey, is he serious?
[21:10] ---
    I have to work a lot
    harder than other people!
[21:16] ---
    That's why, with all my strength...
[21:18] ---
    I'll do what I can right now!
[21:23] ---
    Smash...!
[21:30] ---
    It doesn't hurt as much as before...
[21:34] ---
    Do you intend to become incapacitated
    again and have someone save you?
[21:45] ---
    Mr. Aizawa...
[21:52] ---
    I can still move!
[21:56] ---
    This kid...
[21:59] ---
    I came because I was worried,
    but what the heck, young man?!
[22:03] ---
    You still couldn't control your power,
    but you also couldn't become incapacitated.
[22:07] ---
    So, you propelled the ball
    at the last point of contact
[22:11] ---
    by sending the power of
    One For All to just your fingertip,
[22:16] ---
    minimizing the injury
    while maximizing the power...!
[22:21] ---
    What the heck, young man?!
[22:25] ---
    You're so cool!
[24:00] ---
    "Next time"
[24:02] ---
    Hero Basic Training, a class only
    available in the hero course at U.A.!
[24:05] ---
    Deku, let's do our
    best together in battle training.
[24:08] ---
    Uraraka...?! I talked to a girl again!
[24:13] ---
    Looks like we're up against
    Team Iida and Bakugo.
[24:17] ---
    I'm going to fight against Kacchan!
[24:20] ---
    Next time, "Rage, You Damn Nerd"!
[24:22] ---
    Deku's going to put bunny ears
    on his head! It's so cute!
[24:26] ---
    Go beyond!
[24:26] ---
    "Next time: Rage, You Damn Nerd"
[24:27] ---
    Plus Ultra!
