**[00:01] ---**
You're so lucky, Kacchan.
**[00:03] ---**
Your Quirk's so cool!
**[00:05] ---**
I hope I get mine soon, too.
**[00:07] ---**
No matter what Quirk you get,
you'll never beat me.
**[00:14] ---**
He's just a pebble!
**[00:17] ---**
Until a little while ago,
**[00:19] ---**
he was just a pebble on the side of the road.
**[00:27] ---**
You've got a flashy Quirk there, don't you?!
**[00:31] ---**
Hey! You tricked me, didn't you?!
**[00:35] ---**
Was it fun tricking me all this time?!
**[00:39] ---**
Try and get me with it!
**[00:41] ---**
'Cause I'm better than you!
**[00:50] ---**
What the--?
**[00:52] ---**
Improvised special move...
**[00:54] ---**
...Comet Home Run!
**[00:56] ---**
You call that a home run?!
**[01:00] ---**
Retrieved!
**[01:06] ---**
From the start, you were...
**[01:09] ---**
I wasn't... going to use it...
**[01:15] ---**
Because I can't use it...
**[01:17] ---**
Because my body can't handle the impact...
**[01:23] ---**
Mr. Aizawa said so, too...
**[01:28] ---**
But...
**[01:31] ---**
...this was all...
**[01:33] ---**
...I could think of...
**[01:38] ---**
S-Someone told me...
**[01:43] ---**
You can become a hero...
**[01:48] ---**
That's why...
**[01:50] ---**
I'm going...!
**[03:26] ---**
Indoor person-to-person combat training...
**[03:29] ---**
--Uraraka?!
**[03:30] ---**
--Hero team...
**[03:31] ---**
...wins!
**[03:37] ---**
What the heck?
**[03:39] ---**
The losers are practically uninjured,
**[03:41] ---**
and the winners are on the ground...
**[03:44] ---**
They lost the battle, but won the war, huh?
**[03:48] ---**
This is training, though.
**[03:56] ---**
To the nurse's office.
**[03:58] ---**
I know.
**[04:08] ---**
My right...
**[04:10] ---**
Deku predicted it...
**[04:12] ---**
On top of that... he found
a way to win the exercise...
**[04:20] ---**
You're an amazing person,
so that's why I want to beat you!
**[04:23] ---**
I want to win and surpass you, you idiot!
**[04:30] ---**
Does that mean...
**[04:32] ---**
...even if we fought all-out...
**[04:34] ---**
...Deku would completely beat...?
**[04:39] ---**
Come back, Young Bakugo.
It's time to review the results.
**[04:44] ---**
Whether you win or lose,
**[04:47] ---**
looking back and learning from
your experiences is a part of life.
**[04:50] ---**
"Episode 8: Bakugo's Start Line"
**[04:54] ---**
"Person-To-Person Combat Training"
"Battle 1 Review"
**[04:55] ---**
Well, even if I say that,
the MVP for this battle was Young Iida!
**[05:02] ---**
It's not either of the winners,
Ochaco or Midoriya?
**[05:06] ---**
Hmm, well... Why is that?
**[05:10] ---**
Does anyone know?
**[05:11] ---**
Yes, Mr. All Might.
**[05:13] ---**
That is because Iida adapted
the most to the context of the training.
**[05:20] ---**
From watching the match,
**[05:22] ---**
it appears Bakugo acted on his own
because of an obviously personal grudge.
**[05:25] ---**
And as Mr. All Might said earlier,
**[05:28] ---**
it is foolish to launch
a large-scale attack indoors.
**[05:33] ---**
In the same way, taking into
consideration the damage he received,
**[05:37] ---**
Midoriya's plan was also rash.
**[05:41] ---**
As for Uraraka...
**[05:43] ---**
She let her guard down mid-battle,
**[05:45] ---**
and her final attack was too reckless.
**[05:49] ---**
If she treated the
papier-mâché as a real weapon,
**[05:52] ---**
she would not have been able
to do something so dangerous.
**[05:55] ---**
Iida had prepared for his opponent's arrival
**[05:57] ---**
and assumed it would be
a fight over the weapon,
**[06:00] ---**
which made him late in
responding to the final attack.
**[06:05] ---**
The hero team only won
**[06:08] ---**
because they took advantage
of the fact that this was training.
**[06:10] ---**
They were practically breaking the rules.
**[06:15] ---**
Sh-She said more than I expected.
**[06:19] ---**
W-Well, Young Iida also has parts
of him that could be more relaxed,
**[06:25] ---**
but well, that was correct!
***SIGN*** "Start with the basics to develop depth of learning" "Devote oneself wholeheartedly"
**[06:29] ---**
We should always start with the
basics to develop depth of learning.
**[06:31] ---**
We must strive to devote
ourselves wholeheartedly.
**[06:33] ---**
Otherwise, we cannot become top heroes.
**[06:36] ---**
"Momo Yaoyorozu"
**[06:37] ---**
Momo Yaoyorozu.
**[06:39] ---**
One of four students admitted to
the hero course based on recommendations.
**[06:43] ---**
All right everyone, let's change
locations and start the second match.
**[06:47] ---**
Tackle this training after thinking
about what we just talked about.
**[06:52] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[06:53] ---**
"Battle Building B"
**[06:54] ---**
Match two!
**[06:56] ---**
Team B are the heroes,
and Team I are the villains!
**[07:01] ---**
Ojiro.
**[07:03] ---**
I'm going to get serious.
**[07:05] ---**
I'll take off my gloves and boots, too!
**[07:07] ---**
O-Okay...
**[07:09] ---**
Hagakure, that's the correct
decision as an invisible person,
**[07:13] ---**
but that's not great
for a girl, morally speaking.
**[07:18] ---**
You can't look, okay?
**[07:19] ---**
I can't see you even if I tried.
**[07:21] ---**
Now, let's start the second indoor
person-to-person combat training match!
**[07:32] ---**
"Mezo Shoji"
"Quirk: Dupli-Arms"
**[07:33] ---**
Mezo Shoji. Quirk: Dupli-Arms.
**[07:36] ---**
He can create replicas of his own
body parts on the tips of his tentacles.
**[07:42] ---**
One in the hall on the
north side of the fourth floor.
**[07:45] ---**
The other is somewhere on the same floor...
**[07:47] ---**
They're barefoot...
**[07:49] ---**
The invisible one is coming
to ambush and capture us, huh?
**[07:53] ---**
Go outside. It's dangerous.
**[07:56] ---**
I'm sure our opponents intend
to fight a defensive battle...
**[08:04] ---**
...but that does not matter to me.
**[08:16] ---**
Owww... My feet!
**[08:20] ---**
Th-This Quirk is...
**[08:32] ---**
You can move if you want,
**[08:34] ---**
but the skin on your feet will come off,
so you won't be able to fight your best.
**[08:45] ---**
He did not cause any damage to
his teammate or the nuclear weapon,
**[08:49] ---**
and on top of that, he weakened the enemy.
**[08:51] ---**
He's so strong!
**[08:58] ---**
Hero team wins!
**[09:08] ---**
Heat?
**[09:12] ---**
It's-It's-It's hot!
**[09:17] ---**
Sorry.
**[09:19] ---**
The difference in our ability was too great.
**[09:21] ---**
"Shoto Todoroki"
"Quirk: Half-Cold, Half-Hot"
**[09:21] ---**
Shoto Todoroki.
**[09:23] ---**
He's another one of the four admitted to
the hero course based on recommendations.
**[09:27] ---**
His Quirk is Half-Cold, Half-Hot.
**[09:29] ---**
He freezes with his right
and burns with his left!
**[09:31] ---**
The range and temperature
of his ability is unknown?!
**[09:33] ---**
What is he, a monster?!
**[09:35] ---**
W-Wow!
**[09:37] ---**
What's up with that Quirk?
**[09:39] ---**
As expected of someone who
got in through recommendations.
**[09:41] ---**
All right, everyone gather round
for a review of the second match.
**[09:45] ---**
Next, we will begin the third match!
**[09:48] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[09:51] ---**
"Battle Building C"
**[10:04] ---**
"Team J"
**[10:16] ---**
"Team H"
**[10:16] ---**
Ribbit, ribbit.
**[10:27] ---**
"Team C"
**[10:27] ---**
No, no, no, no!
**[10:33] ---**
"Team G"
**[10:45] ---**
"Team F"
**[10:54] ---**
Yahoo!
**[11:02] ---**
Sorry, sorry!
**[11:17] ---**
Good work everyone!
**[11:18] ---**
We didn't have any major injuries
other than Young Midoriya, either!
**[11:22] ---**
You guys took this on seriously!
**[11:24] ---**
You all did a good job
for your first training!
**[11:27] ---**
To have such a proper class
after Mr. Aizawa's class...
**[11:32] ---**
It's kind of anticlimactic...
**[11:35] ---**
We're free to have proper classes, as well!
**[11:39] ---**
Well then, I must review
the results with Young Midoriya!
**[11:44] ---**
Change and return...
**[11:46] ---**
...to the classroom!
**[11:49] ---**
All Might's amazing!
**[11:51] ---**
Why was he in such a hurry?
**[11:53] ---**
So cool...
**[11:57] ---**
Young Bakugo is a mass of pride...
**[12:00] ---**
...and there's nothing more fragile
than a heart that's swelled to bursting.
**[12:04] ---**
As his teacher, I must counsel him well.
**[12:09] ---**
But right now...
**[12:11] ---**
"Staff Only"
**[12:12] ---**
"Open | Close"
**[12:15] ---**
If I teach a class...
**[12:23] ---**
...I barely have enough time. Shit!
**[12:35] ---**
"Nurse's Office"
**[12:36] ---**
The school year has just begun,
**[12:38] ---**
and he's already been in here three times!
**[12:39] ---**
Why didn't you stop him, All Might?
**[12:42] ---**
I apologize, Recovery Girl.
**[12:45] ---**
What are you apologizing to *me* for?
**[12:48] ---**
On top of his total exhaustion,
he was here just yesterday.
**[12:51] ---**
I can't treat him all at once.
**[12:52] ---**
I did first-aid treatment already,
**[12:54] ---**
so after the IV is finished, we can only
wait for his body to heal slowly overnight.
**[13:00] ---**
Jeez, I know he's your favorite and
that you passed on your powers to him,
**[13:04] ---**
but that doesn't mean you should spoil him!
**[13:06] ---**
There is nothing I can say to that.
**[13:08] ---**
Because I wanted to consider his feelings,
**[13:11] ---**
I hesitated to stop the training match.
**[13:14] ---**
Even so...
**[13:16] ---**
Will you please not talk
about One For All so loudly?
**[13:21] ---**
Yes, yes, Mr. Natural-Born Hero.
**[13:24] ---**
Mr. Symbol of Peace.
**[13:28] ---**
My injury and this form
of mine are common knowledge
**[13:32] ---**
among the U.A. teachers
and a certain group of pros,
**[13:35] ---**
but the secret of my Quirk, One For All,
**[13:39] ---**
is known only to you, the
principal, a close friend,
**[13:42] ---**
and Young Midoriya.
**[13:47] ---**
I know it's not like you want
to rest on your laurels at the top,
**[13:51] ---**
but is being a "natural-born hero"
**[13:54] ---**
or the "Symbol of Peace"
really that important?
**[13:57] ---**
If I no longer am, then the
superhuman society will be seized by evil.
**[14:02] ---**
This is the responsibility
of those of us with this power.
**[14:10] ---**
If that's the case, then it's
even more important for you to learn
**[14:13] ---**
what it means to guide someone.
**[14:16] ---**
Yes, ma'am.
**[14:22] ---**
You can become a hero.
**[14:26] ---**
Will you accept my power?
**[14:29] ---**
"One For All"...
**[14:33] ---**
Smash...!
**[14:40] ---**
Come, Young Midoriya.
**[14:43] ---**
This is your hero academia!
**[14:48] ---**
I have a lot to learn from here on out
**[14:50] ---**
in order to get closer
to what I dream of becoming!
**[14:54] ---**
My "Deku" isn't always
going to mean "useless"!
**[14:58] ---**
Kacchan,
**[14:59] ---**
my "Deku" means "You can do it!"
**[15:23] ---**
It's late afternoon...?
**[15:25] ---**
Are you awake?
**[15:31] ---**
That's all for today's treatment.
**[15:33] ---**
Come back again tomorrow, okay?
**[15:38] ---**
I ended up skipping my afternoon classes...
**[15:41] ---**
Mr. Aizawa's gonna wrap me
in those bindings again...
**[15:49] ---**
Oh, Midoriya's here!
**[15:51] ---**
Good work!
**[15:53] ---**
Man, I don't know what you
were saying during the match,
**[15:56] ---**
but you were fired up!
**[15:58] ---**
I can't believe you fought evenly with Bakugo,
who was first in the entrance exam!
**[16:01] ---**
You did a good job dodging!
**[16:03] ---**
You guys did that in the first match,
so the rest of us had to give it our all, too.
**[16:07] ---**
You were far from elegant, but--
**[16:08] ---**
You did a good job dodging!
**[16:10] ---**
H-Huh?
**[16:12] ---**
I'm Eijiro Kirishima.
**[16:14] ---**
We're all going over the
training together right now.
**[16:17] ---**
I'm Hanta Sero.
**[16:18] ---**
I'm Yuga Aoya--
**[16:20] ---**
I'm Mina Ashido!
**[16:21] ---**
You did a good job dodging!
**[16:23] ---**
I'm Tsuyu Asui.
**[16:25] ---**
Call me Tsu.
**[16:26] ---**
I'm Sato!
**[16:27] ---**
Um... Er...
**[16:29] ---**
I'm Mineta!
**[16:31] ---**
--Where the heck did you pop out from?
**[16:32] ---**
--I am Yuga Aoyama.
**[16:34] ---**
--You did terrible in the training.
**[16:34] ---**
--I am a man who never stops shining.
**[16:36] ---**
--You're too loud.
**[16:38] ---**
Tokoyami!
**[16:39] ---**
That desk is not a chair.
**[16:41] ---**
Get off immediately.
**[16:43] ---**
It's not that big a deal, is it?
**[16:44] ---**
Wh--?!
**[16:45] ---**
What's with those hands, anyway?
**[16:48] ---**
You people...
**[16:50] ---**
I cannot condone actions
that disrespect the desks
**[16:53] ---**
the great men and women
who are our upperclassmen once used!
**[16:56] ---**
You're too loud.
**[16:57] ---**
Iida never wavers, does he?
**[17:01] ---**
Hey, Uraraka, wanna grab
a bite to eat sometime?
**[17:04] ---**
What do you like?
**[17:06] ---**
Mochi--
**[17:08] ---**
Wait, Deku, she didn't heal your injuries?
**[17:11] ---**
Oh, uh, it's because of
how much stamina I have, and...
**[17:15] ---**
Huh?
**[17:17] ---**
Um, Uraraka, more importantly...
**[17:22] ---**
We all tried to stop him,
**[17:24] ---**
but he went home just
now without saying anything.
**[17:28] ---**
Hey! You tricked me, didn't you?!
**[17:31] ---**
Was it fun tricking me all this time?!
**[17:35] ---**
You've got a flashy Quirk there, don't you?!
**[17:45] ---**
Kacchan!
**[17:49] ---**
Kacchan!
**[17:53] ---**
What?
**[17:59] ---**
It's a secret I didn't even tell my mom...
**[18:03] ---**
But...
**[18:07] ---**
There's one thing
I feel like I have to tell you.
**[18:13] ---**
My Quirk is something
I received from someone else.
**[18:18] ---**
Huh?
**[18:19] ---**
I can't say who I got it from, though!
**[18:22] ---**
I won't say...
**[18:23] ---**
But it's like a story out
of comic books, except it's true.
**[18:28] ---**
On top of that,
I still can't control it properly.
**[18:32] ---**
It's just a borrowed power
that I haven't made my own yet.
**[18:36] ---**
That's why...
**[18:38] ---**
...I tried to beat you without using it.
**[18:41] ---**
But in the end,
I couldn't win and had to rely on it.
**[18:46] ---**
I've still got a long way to go...
**[18:48] ---**
That's why...
**[18:50] ---**
That's why--
**[18:53] ---**
One day,
**[18:55] ---**
I will make this Quirk my own
**[18:59] ---**
and beat you with my own power!
**[19:06] ---**
I just came to tell him I didn't trick him.
**[19:08] ---**
What am I...?
**[19:11] ---**
What the hell is that?
**[19:14] ---**
"Borrowed power"?
**[19:15] ---**
You're talking nonsense.
**[19:18] ---**
What are you trying to do, make me out
to be more of a fool than you already have?
**[19:22] ---**
Huh?
**[19:25] ---**
What are you trying to say?
**[19:27] ---**
Today, I lost to you...
**[19:31] ---**
That's all it was...
**[19:33] ---**
That's all...
**[19:37] ---**
As I watched the ice guy,
**[19:40] ---**
I thought, "I can't beat him"!
**[19:43] ---**
It is foolish to launch
a large-scale attack indoors.
**[19:46] ---**
Damn it! I ended up agreeing
with what that ponytail girl said!
**[19:51] ---**
Damn it! Damn it, damn it!
**[19:56] ---**
Hey, you too, Deku!
**[20:00] ---**
I'm just...
**[20:02] ---**
I'm just getting started!
**[20:04] ---**
You hear?
**[20:05] ---**
Here, I will become number one!
**[20:14] ---**
You won't beat me again, bastard!
**[20:23] ---**
There he is!
**[20:26] ---**
Young...
**[20:28] ---**
...Bakugo!
**[20:32] ---**
Just so you know, pride is important.
**[20:37] ---**
You definitely have the
abilities needed to become a pro.
**[20:41] ---**
You still have a lot of--
**[20:43] ---**
Let go of me, All Might.
**[20:44] ---**
I can't walk.
**[20:47] ---**
I'll become a hero that surpasses
even you without you telling me!
**[20:53] ---**
Huh?
**[20:55] ---**
Uh, right.
**[20:58] ---**
He's gotten over it.
**[21:04] ---**
It's hard being a teacher...
**[21:09] ---**
What was that?
**[21:11] ---**
The fated battle between men.
**[21:13] ---**
It looked like Midoriya was just
giving excuses one-sidedly, though.
**[21:18] ---**
The fated battle between men!
**[21:21] ---**
Kacchan's fuse has been lit.
**[21:25] ---**
That doesn't change what I have to do.
**[21:27] ---**
I just have to chase after him.
**[21:31] ---**
Young Midoriya!
**[21:33] ---**
What were you talking
about with Young Bakugo?
**[21:36] ---**
Um, we were, uh...
**[21:38] ---**
Hmm... I'm so curious.
**[21:40] ---**
Why don't you tell me in detail?
**[21:42] ---**
U-Um, a-actually...
**[23:22] ---**
A few days later, we would find out...
**[23:29] ---**
...how terrifying the truly cunning villains
All Might warned us about were.
**[23:35] ---**
"All Might Becomes U.A. Teacher!"
"Closes Agency Temporarily"
**[23:36] ---**
Did you see this?
**[23:38] ---**
It says he's a teacher...
**[23:43] ---**
Hey.
**[23:45] ---**
What do you think'll happen...
**[23:49] ---**
if the Symbol of Peace...
**[23:56] ---**
...is killed by villains?
**[24:00] ---**
"Next time"
**[24:00] ---**
All heroes have their starting point!
**[24:03] ---**
Next time, "Yeah, Just Do Your Best, Iida!"
**[24:05] ---**
