[00:02] Izuku
    After the second term ended
    and we started winter vacation,
[00:05] Izuku
    we all stayed at the school dorms.
[00:08] Izuku
    None of us when home.
SIGN    "Glasses Days"
[00:11] Izuku
    Of course, there was a reason for that...
[00:17] Mineta
    It's finally winter vacation,
[00:21] Mineta
    but we're not allowed to go outside?
[00:24] Kaminari
    We can't go out to do anything fun...
[00:26] Sero
    Wanna play cards?
[00:28] Mineta/Kaminari
    I'm bored of cards!
[00:29] Mineta
    Isn't there anything fun to do?!
[00:31] Kaminari
    I wanna go out! I wanna play!
    I wanna watch a movie!
[00:34] Tenya
    Did you two forget why the school
    is having us stay in dorms?
[00:39] Yaoyorozu
    We, the hero course students, are being
    targeted by the League of Villains,
[00:43] Yaoyorozu
    and U.A.'s defense system and teachers
    are protecting us from them.
[00:48] Mineta
    I-I know.
[00:50] Kaminari
    But I can't believe we can only
    go home for New Year's Eve.
[00:55] Tenya
    That just shows that
    you don't really understand!
[00:57] Yaoyorozu
    When we go back home...
[00:59] Tenya
    ...the teachers have to escort
    each and every one of us!
[01:04] Yaoyorozu
    If there aren't enough guards,
    they'll have to ask the pro heroes for help!
[01:08] Tenya
    They're busy enough at the end of the year!
    Don't give them more work!
[01:12] Yaoyorozu
    You should be happy...
[01:14] Tenya
    ...that they're letting us go home at all!
[01:17] Mineta
    Thank you so much, teachers!
[01:20] Kaminari
    Thank you, pro heroes!
[01:22] Mineta/Kaminari
    We appreciate what you're doing!
SIGN    "U.A. Heroes Battle"
[03:01] Kirishima
    Well, there's not much we can do
    about not being allowed outside
[03:03] Kirishima
    and having a shorter visit home.
[03:06] Kirishima
    It sucks that that got cancelled, though.
[03:09] Ashido
    Oh, that.
[03:11] Aoyama
    I was so looking forward to it! To that!
[03:14] Sato
    Me, too!
[03:15] Todoroki
    What are you guys talking about?
[03:17] Ochaco
    Man, that was so cold.
[03:19] Hagakure
    Yeah, I'm freezing!
[03:22] Ochaco
    Huh? What're you all talking about?
[03:24] Kirishima
    About that! You know!
[03:25] Ashido
    U.A.'s famous New Year's party!
[03:28] Todoroki
    Oh, the big production they put on
    at the shrine every year?
[03:32] Tokoyami
    A feast to ring in the new year.
[03:34] Kirishima
    I've gone to see it before. It was amazing!
[03:37] Ashido
    I've seen it on TV before, too!
[03:40] Sero
    Aw, I've never seen it before!
[03:42] Ojiro
    Me neither.
[03:44] Ojiro
    Hey, what's the U.A. New Year's party like?
[03:47] Kirishima
    Midoriya, can you explain?
[03:50] Izuku
    Huh? Um...
[03:52] Izuku
    The U.A. New Year's party
[03:54] Izuku
    is an event for the new year
    sponsored by U.A. High School
[03:58] Izuku
    that happens every year at the Kurega Shrine
    from January 1st to the 3rd.
[04:00] Izuku
    The teachers supervise,
[04:03] Izuku
    so it's an exciting event where we can use
    our Quirks as much as we want!
[04:06] Izuku
    Those proud of their strength play giant
    hanetsuki to pray for good health...
[04:10] Ochaco
    It's bigger than I was thinking!
[04:12] Izuku
    People also wish for happiness in the
    new year by playing giant daruma drop!
[04:17] Kirishima
    That's huge!
[04:19] Izuku
    And they fight with giant tops
    to grow big and strong
[04:22] Izuku
    in the giant top-spinning battle!
[04:23] Asui
    They're big!
[04:25] Izuku
    On top of that,
[04:26] Izuku
    the Cook Hero: Lunch Rush makes
    traditional new year's food and mochi!
[04:29] Ochaco
    Mochi!
[04:30] Izuku
    And the school festival beauty pageant
    winner dresses as a shrine maiden!
[04:34] Mineta/Kaminari
    Shrine maiden!
[04:35] Izuku
    Anyway, it's just packed with fun
    and exciting activities!
[04:40] Kaminari
    Which means...
[04:41] Kaminari
    If we were to have the New Year's party,
[04:44] Kaminari
    we would've been able to see Hado
    dressed as a shrine maiden!
[04:47] Ochaco
    Mochi...
[04:49] Sato
    I think I would've done pretty well
    with the daruma drop.
[04:53] Sero
    Go, Sugarman!
[04:55] Hagakure
    Hey, what if we do the
    New Year's party ourselves?
[04:58] Mineta
    Aw, but look at all that snow. It's cold...
[05:01] Kamiari
    We don't have any of the toys, either.
[05:03] Ochaco
    Then, let's at least get Lunch Rush
    to make some mochi...
[05:06] Asui
    You really want some, huh, Ochaco?
[05:08] Tenya
    Unfortunately, we must give up
    on the New Year's party.
[05:12] Yaoyorozu
    He's right.
[05:14] Yaoyorozu
    We aren't allowed to go out,
    and we don't have any equipment...
[05:17] Togata
    No, we can do it!
[05:21] Togata
    Merry Christmas, everyone!
[05:23] Izuku
    T-Togata...?!
[05:25] Izuku
    Christmas is over, though...
[05:27] Asui
    I wonder if he's cold...
[05:29] Ochaco
    He's getting the living room wet...
[05:31] Kirishima
    You're putting yourself too out there
    for an unfunny joke!
[05:35] Togata
    Sorry, sorry.
[05:42] Togata
    Actually, the hero course and
    support course worked together
[05:46] Togata
    to create a new event for
    next year's New Year's party!
[05:50] Togata
    The New Year's party was cancelled,
[05:53] Togata
    but since we're all here, I came to see
    if you wanted to try out the new event!
[05:59] Kaminari
    A new event for next year's New Year's party?!
[06:02] Ashido
    Sounds fun!
[06:03] Kirishima
    Is it huge?!
[06:06] Togata
    It's not that big.
[06:07] Ochaco
    Would I be able to play?
[06:09] Togata
    As long as you learn the rules.
[06:11] Tenya
    Togata, what's the event called?
[06:14] Togata
    It's called...
[06:15] Togata
    ...U.A. Heroes Battle!
[06:19] Togata
    To put it simply,
[06:20] Togata
    it's a game where you use cards
    based on U.A. hero course students
[06:24] Togata
    and battle with each other!
SIGN    "Quirk: Electrification - Denki Kaminari"
[06:27] Kaminari
    Aren't the eyes kinda big?!
[06:28] Kirishima
    Don't sweat the small stuff!
SIGN    "Quirk: Electrification - Denki Kaminari" "Quirk: Hardening - Eijiro Kirishima"
[06:31] Mineta
    There aren't any numbers or descriptions
    like you'd normally have in a card game...
[06:37] Mineta
    How are we supposed to battle with these?
[06:40] Togata
    Don't worry, the support course created
    this battle board to help with that!
[06:47] Togata
    This battle board reads the abilities
    for the character on the card
[06:52] Togata
    and turns it into a 3-D figure
    you can battle with!
[06:55] Izuku
    Wow, they really went all out!
[06:58] Togata
    The battle board will tell you
    the more detailed rules,
[07:01] Togata
    so you should just give it a try!
[07:04] All
    Thank you very much!
[07:07] Tenya
    Togata went out of his way to bring this to us!
[07:10] Yaoyorozu
    Let's all play together!
[07:11] All
    Yeah!
[07:16] Tenya
    How about it, Midoriya?
[07:19] Izuku
    It looks like we just touch this...
[07:24] Hatsume
    Welcome to U.A. Heroes Battle!
[07:27] Izuku
    Hatsume from the support course?
[07:30] Hatsume
    The rules for U.A. Heroes Battle are super easy!
[07:33] Hatsume
    Just use the cards for the Class A
    students and the extras!
SIGN    "Quirk: Engine - Tenya Iida - Ingenium"
[07:38] Hatsume
    The battle board AI will automatically judge
[07:40] Hatsume
    the abilities of the character on the card.
[07:43] Hatsume
    Various effects, like attack,
    defense, and special moves,
[07:45] Hatsume
    will be dispatched automatically!
[07:50] Hatsume
    Helper heroes will appear with the extra cards!
[07:54] Hatsume
    However, you can only use them once
    before they disappear automatically,
[07:57] Hatsume
    so think carefully about when to use them!
[08:00] Tenya
    I see.
[08:02] Hatsume
    The card battle will begin when
    each player has three cards.
SIGN    "Quirk: Engine - Tenya Iida - Ingenium" "Quirk: Zoom - Mei Hatsume - Support"
[08:07] Hatsume
    Each player will take turns placing cards,
SIGN    "Ingenium - Engine" "Support Course - Zoom"
[08:10] Hatsume
    and like the finals of the sports festival,
[08:13] Hatsume
    you either need to defeat your opponent
    or throw them out of bounds.
[08:17] Hatsume
    Whoever defeats three of
    their opponent's cards first wins.
SIGN    "Out of bounds"
SIGN    "Iida"
[08:22] Tenya
    Why is my humiliation from the
    sports festival being re-enacted?
[08:25] Hatusme
    The key to winning
[08:27] Hatsume
    is being able to understand the Quirks
    of your classmates and the extra cards.
[08:32] Hatsume
    Let's play U.A. Heroes Battle!
[08:35] Sato/Ashido/Sero/Asui
    Rock, paper, scissors!
[08:38] Izuku
    After an impartial round of rock-paper-scissors,
[08:40] Izuku
    the first players of U.A. Heroes Battle
    were decided to be...
SIGN    "Izuku Midoriya" "Mashirao Ojiro"
[08:46] Present Mic
    U.A. Heroes Battle! Ready, go!
[09:01] Present Mic
    Oh, Earphone Jack noticed
    Sugarman getting closer!
[09:04] Ojiro
    Oh, no!
SIGN    Heartbeat Distortion!
SIGN    "Jiro"
[09:14] Present Mic
    Attacked from his blind spot,
[09:16] Present Mic
    Sugarman was defeated without
    doing anything cool!
[09:20] Sato
    Ojiro!
[09:23] Ojiro
    Then, how about this?
[09:25] Izuku
    Kaminari, huh?
[09:27] Ojiro
    I'll have him attack in all directions
    before he can be located!
SIGN    Indiscriminate Shock...
SIGN    1.3 Million Volts!
[09:37] Present Mic
    After getting hit with Discharge,
    Earphone Jack goes down!
[09:40] Present Mic
    But! Chargebolt's turned into an idiot!
[09:44] Izuku
    In that case--
[09:46] Izuku
    Aoyama!
SIGN    Navel Laser!
[09:55] Present Mic
    Navel Laser, full blast!
[09:58] Present Mic
    He just had to get that idiot out of bounds,
[10:00] Present Mic
    but he hit him mercilessly
    with a full-powered attack!
[10:04] Kaminari
    Midoriya... I didn't realize
    you were that kind of guy...
[10:07] Izuku
    I-I-It's not like that!
[10:08] Izuku
    I was planning to just send him out of bounds,
    but the AI did that on its own...
[10:11] Izuku
    Wait, his stomach's hurting!
[10:21] Present Mic
    How gentlemanly!
[10:22] Present Mic
    Tailman wins in a very gentlemanly way!
[10:26] Present Mic
    With that, each side only has one card left!
[10:28] Present Mic
    Just who is Midoriya's last card?!
[10:32] Izuku
    I'm counting on you!
[10:36] Present Mic
    There he is!
[10:37] Present Mic
    Half-Cold Half-Hot Shoto!
SIGN    Sorry.
SIGN    We're at completely different levels.
[10:46] Present Mic
    Tailman can't move!
[10:49] Present Mic
    Winner, Izuku Midoriya!
[10:52] Ojiro
    This is the same as what happened
    during our first combat training...
[10:54] Ojiro
    Instant defeat...
[10:57] Mineta
    Let me go next!
[10:59] Asui
    I'd like to try, too.
[11:01] Ashido
    Then let's play with teams!
[11:02] Ochaco
    Yeah!
SIGN    "Quirk: Super Power(?) - Izuku Midoriya - Deku"
[11:06] Izuku
    What does the AI of this card game
    think of me right now?
[11:12] Izuku
    I hope it thinks I've gotten stronger...
[11:27] Mineta
    Hey, hey, since we've broken up
    into teams of guys and girls,
[11:31] Mineta
    wanna battle with cards of guys vs. girls, too?
[11:33] Ochaco
    But there aren't as many girl cards...
[11:37] Mineta
    How about we tell you what cards
    we'll use as a handicap, then?
[11:41] Mineta
    We'll fight with me, Sero, and Tokoyami.
[11:45] Asui
    I can't believe he told us what they're using.
[11:47] Ashido
    Fine, let's do this!
[11:49] Ochaco/Asui
    --Yeah!
    --Ribbit!
[11:51] Present Mic
    Ready, go!
[11:53] Mineta
    We're counting on you, Sero!
[11:55] Sero
    All right!
[11:58] Present Mic
    The boys' team starts with Cellophane!
[12:04] Mineta
    We'll restrain the girls' characters
    with Sero's Tape...
[12:06] Mineta
    Show the world your writhing, sexy bodies!
[12:09] Ochaco
    Then, we'll go with this card!
[12:19] Mineta/Sero
    Mt. Lady?!
SIGN    "squish"
[12:25] Present Mic
    He was squashed!
[12:27] Present Mic
    He was squashed like a pesky bug!
[12:31] Present Mic
    But since she's an extra card,
    even if she wins, she disappears!
[12:35] Present Mic
    Both teams are left with two cards!
[12:38] Mineta
    I'll go next.
[12:40] Mineta
    I'll leave the end to you, Tokoyami.
[12:42] Tokoyami
    Very well.
[12:47] Mineta
    I'll restrain the opponent
    with my Pop Off, and...
[12:52] Ashido
    We won't let you have your way!
[12:55] Ashido
    Go, me!
SIGN    Acid Shot!
[13:02] Mineta
    I'm melting into a puddle...?!
[13:05] Mineta
    Everyone else just disappeared
    when they were beaten!
[13:08] Mineta
    Why am I the only one who melted?!
[13:10] Ashido
    It's what you deserve!
SIGN    Leave the rest to me.
SIGN    Go, Dark Shadow!
[13:20] Present Mic
    There's no stopping him!
[13:22] Present Mic
    Tsukuyomi threw Pinky out of bounds!
[13:25] Present Mic
    With that, the girls only have one card left!
[13:28] Ashido
    But we knew that they'd save the
    strongest card, Tokoyami, for last!
[13:32] Ochaco
    Tsu, use that!
[13:34] Asui
    Ribbit!
[13:37] Tokoyami
    Hagakure?!
SIGN    Warp Refraction: Say Cheese!
[13:43] Present Mic
    They're attacking Dark Shadow's weakness!
SIGN    Sorry, Fumikage...
SIGN    "Hagakure"
[13:49] Present Mic
    The AI has decided that Dark Shadow
    has lost the will to fight
[13:53] Present Mic
    and has given the victory to Invisible Girl!
[13:57] Ochaco/Ashido/Asui
    --Yay!
    --Yay!
    --Ribbit!
[13:58] Tokoyami
    I can't believe it...
[14:00] Sero
    They're not even going to fight?
    Isn't that weird?
[14:04] Mineta
    Who made this AI, anyway?
[14:07] Izuku
    N-Now, now... It's just a game...
[14:10] Kirishima
    I wanna go next!
[14:15] Yaoyorozu
    I changed the settings so that
    we could put out two cards at once.
[14:19] Kirishima
    Which means we should put out two cards
    that work well together, huh?
[14:23] Kirishima
    I'll go first!
[14:25] Kirishima
    Shoji to find the enemy,
[14:27] Kirishima
    and my card to bring them down!
[14:30] Yaoyorozu
    I accept your challenge!
[14:32] Yaoyorozu
    No matter how much you search,
    if I send out a barrage from a distance--
SIGN    Unbreakable!
[14:45] Kirishima
    I can't see anything in the smoke!
[14:48] Kirishima
    Who's the other card Yao-momo sent out?
SIGN    --Shoot! --Fly away!
[14:56] Present Mic
    Tentacole and Red Riot are blown out of bounds!
[15:00] Present Mic
    Yaoyorozu's plan wins!
SIGN    "Toru Hagakure" "Rikido Sato"
[15:04] Present Mic
    The next battle will be decided in one go!
[15:07] Sato
    Go!
[15:09] Present Mic
    Sato puts down an extra card!
[15:11] Present Mic
    And it's one of the best cards!
[15:15] Present Mic
    The great DJ Hero, Present Mic, is here!
[15:19] Present Mic
    His victory is all but decided!
[15:21] Izuku
    That AI is really sucking up! To himself!
[15:25] Hagakure
    To go up against Mr. Mic, I've gotta use this--
[15:29] Hagakure
    I'm counting on you, Koda!
SIGN    Come, little ones!
SIGN    B-B-Bugs!
[15:40] Izuku
    The AI was so scared
    that he turned off the power!
[15:44] Present Mic
    For the next battle...
[15:46] Present Mic
    Jiro's card is the extra character, Grand...
[15:52] Shindo
    Take this...
[15:53] Shindo
    Tremoring Earth!
[15:58] Present Mic
    Oh, Cellophane's been swallowed up
    by the shaking ground!
[16:03] Izuku
    That character's not even a U.A. student!
[16:05] Sero
    Isn't my card a little too weak?
[16:11] Katsuki
    Jeez, everyone's so noisy.
[16:13] Katsuki
    I can't take a nap like this!
[16:15] Katsuki
    You guys are too loud!
[16:17] Kirishima
    Oh, Bakugo! You wanna play, too?
[16:20] Katsuki
    Huh?
[16:21] Kirishima
    Togata brought over a card game.
[16:24] Kirishima
    And it's got us and the teachers in it!
[16:29] Katsuki
    Who's the strongest card?!
[16:32] Sero
    Probably the teachers, right?
[16:34] Sero
    Since they're pros and all...
[16:36] Sero
    Man, I'm getting beaten again!
[16:38] Kaminari
    Don't worry about it!
[16:39] Kirishima
    Other than the teachers' cards,
[16:42] Kirishima
    I think the strongest are Todoroki,
    Bakugo, and Midoriya.
[16:45] Kirishima
    Todoroki's win rate is high,
    but Midoriya's isn't bad, either.
[16:50] Kirishima
    Super power is a good all-purpose Quirk,
[16:53] Kirishima
    and he's good at working with other cards.
[16:56] Kirishima
    Your card's a little weak in that area, Bakugo.
[16:59] Katsuki
    No, it's not!
[17:01] Katsuki
    I won't lose...
[17:03] Katsuki
    In reality, or in a card battle.
[17:07] Kirishima
    I knew that would get him fired up.
[17:09] Kaminari
    He's so predictable.
[17:11] Katsuki
    Move!
[17:15] Katsuki
    Let's fight, Deku.
[17:18] Katsuki
    I'll beat you to a pulp!
[17:20] Izuku
    I-It's a card battle.
    You know that, right, Kacchan?
[17:25] Katsuki
    Shut up and play!
[17:26] Katsuki
    People talk about strategy and luck
    for card battles, but forget that stuff!
[17:31] Katsuki
    Deku, you put out your card.
[17:35] Katsuki
    I'll put out mine.
[17:37] Katsuki
    It'll be a one-on-one battle with just one card.
[17:40] Izuku
    Fine. Let's do this.
[17:43] Izuku
    What kind of fight will my card
    have with Kacchan?
[17:48] Present Mic
    Ready, go!
[17:50] Katsuki
    Go, me!
[17:53] Izuku
    Deku, go!
SIGN    Take this!
SIGN    Armor-Piercing Shot!
SIGN    Go!
SIGN    Air Force!
SIGN    I won't let you...
SIGN    ...get close!
SIGN    I won't...
SIGN    ...take a hit!
[18:25] Katsuki
    The explosions...
[18:27] Izuku
    ...are cancelling each other out!
[18:32] Tenya
    It's so amazing, it's hard to believe
    this is a card battle...
[18:35] Todoroki
    Yeah. The AI's good at
    recreating their fighting styles.
[18:39] Todoroki
    That's why they're both unable to score
    a deciding blow up close.
[18:45] Izuku
    Is he keeping his distance
[18:47] Izuku
    before rushing in?
[18:49] Izuku
    No, the me in this battle...
[18:53] Izuku
    ...is an old me.
[18:57] Katsuki
    I'm better than that now!
[19:03] Izuku
    This isn't...
[19:06] Katsuki
    This isn't me...!
[19:14] Present Mic
    Oh, it's a draw!
[19:16] Present Mic
    They ran out of time,
    so it ended up being a tie!
[19:19] Katsuki
    I won't accept this!
[19:20] Katsuki
    The real me would've been able to easily dodge
[19:22] Katsuki
    that damn Deku's attack earlier and fight back!
[19:25] Izuku
    B-But Kacchan, I would've
    been able to counter, too--
[19:29] Katsuki
    I'd get close and set off Explosion
    before you could do that!
[19:33] Present Mic
    It's a draw, so we'll head
    into a sudden death overtime!
[19:37] Present Mic
    In this sudden death overtime,
    you'll each draw one card.
[19:39] Present Mic
    Whoever defeats their opponent
    with that card is the winner!
[19:45] Katsuki
    Even if it's a card game,
[19:47] Katsuki
    I won't lose to anyone!
[19:50] Izuku
    I know.
[19:52] Izuku
    Let's finish this.
[19:54] Katsuki
    Here!
[19:57] Kirishima
    Look at Bakugo's card!
[20:00] Kirishima
    He's got the super SSR card, All Might!
[20:04] Kirishima
    It's the strongest card ever!
[20:06] Mineta
    There's no way Midoriya could beat this.
[20:09] Ochaco
    Deku's card is...
[20:11] Ochaco
    ...an extra card?!
[20:13] Sero
    Who in the world is it...?
[20:16] Superdog
    Woof!
[20:17] Izuku
    A-A dog?!
[20:19] Yaoyorozu
    Oh, what a cutie!
[20:20] Tenya
    Why is there a card like this?
[20:22] Todoroki
    Is this dog a U.A. student?
[20:25] Kaminari
    I don't think that's the issue here.
[20:27] Katsuki
    Anyway, I'll win this.
[20:31] Katsuki
    Get him, All Might!
SIGN    You look frightened. Are you lost?
SIGN    But it's fine now.
SIGN    Why?
SIGN    Because I am here!
[20:53] Izuku
    All Might...
SIGN    Now, let's go find your owner together.
[21:00] Present Mic
    All Might takes the dog and leaves!
[21:03] Present Mic
    And then, he goes out of bounds!
[21:08] Present Mic
    A draw!
[21:10] Present Mic
    Another draw!
[21:12] Izuku
    All Might's amazing!
[21:14] Izuku
    He even saves dogs that are in trouble!
[21:18] Katsuki
    S-S-Stop messing around!
[21:22] Katsuki
    What the hell is wrong with this damn game?!
[21:24] Katsuki
    Don't underestimate me!
[21:26] Tenya
    Oh, no!
[21:27] Tenya
    Everyone, evacuate!
[21:28] Tenya
    Evacuate!
[21:29] Katsuki
    Die!
[21:34] Izuku
    After that, our homeroom teacher, Mr. Aizawa...
[21:40] Izuku
    ...announced that card games were banned.
[21:45] Izuku
    Everyone, happy new year!
SIGN    "The End"
