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" **\[21:50\] ---**
