[MONOMA]
Look who we have here.
Relaxed and full of
yourselves as always.
Come on, Class A!
Let's see who's best
once and for all!
[IZUKU] Classes -A and -B
from the hero course at UA high
are battling it out against one
another in team combat training.
[IZUKU] For the first match,
Class A pulled off a win
with the help of Shinso,
a special participant
from general studies.
[IZUKU]
Then, in the second battle,
Yaoyorozu's situational analysis
shined, but it was Kendo's
advanced planning that ended up
being the key to success.
Class B's team managed
to take home the victory,
meaning we're currently
tied with one win each.
[TOKOYAMI coughing]
Sorry about that, Tokoyami.
You want a cough drop?
I don't need your pity.
Fair enough. At least
see Recovery Girl
and get some medicine
for your throat.
[coughing]
[TRANSPOBOT A] Humans can't
get stronger without training?
What inefficient beings.
[TRANSPOBOT B]
Why must we carry the injured?
Rescue protocol needs reform.
[SHINSO] The grounds
were completely wrecked.
It was so different
from the first match.
[AIZAWA] This is what training
in the hero course is like.
That said, they did
go a little overboard.
Fukidashi! Kendo!
Remember your surroundings.
Damage should be kept
to a minimum.
--[FUKIDASHI] Yes, sir!
--Sorry 'bout that!
[AIZAWA] Right, so, when will
Komori's mushrooms disappear?
They'll be gone in two
hours, give or take.
Then it would be logical
to change locations.
[VLAD KING]
Maybe take a break as well.
[laughing] That match was
an overwhelming victory
for the superior Class!
Just like at the
school festival,
Class B is certain
to come out on top.
It couldn't be more obvious!
Aw, you poor losers,
no need to look so frustrated.
It's not your fault.
We're just better.
Accept inferiority!
[cackles]
[KENDO]
Apologies.
He's a broken record
that needs to be set on fire.
I don't know why
he talks like that
when he knows she's
gonna smack him.
[laughs]
Dang, your class has
some heavy hitters.
You're blowin' my mind here.
I'd say the same thing
goes for you guys.
[HAGAKURE]
Fukidashi, I didn't know
you could make something so big!
[FUKIDASHI] My throat gets
scratchy when I do!
But I'm trying to learn
to power through it!
It's not just their Quirks.
You have to factor in
attitudes and mental strength,
which both contribute
to overall growth
and lead to better performances
on the b*ttlefield!
You're sure writing a lot.
You know, you've grown
a ton, too, Deku.
[IZUKU]
I hope so.
[MINETA] Nowhere near
as much as me, though.
Yeah, I don't see it.
I'm not talking about my height!
[whispering] I am here.
Without startling you.
Oh, All Might!
[ALL MIGHT] Young Midoriya,
a moment, please?
--[IZUKU] Sure!
--[ASHIDO] That's cool. Bye!
[MINETA] Feels like
Midoriya's with All Might
every other second
these days, doesn't it?
It seems that way.
I heard he's been helping Deku
with practice outside of class.
Ooh, shocker, shocker.
Of course you've got
the deets on Midoriya.
Uh! No! I just
heard it, that's all,
from somebody else, probably.
[yelps]
Ah! I'm so sorry!
Don't use your Quirk
before our match starts!
You're wasting your power!
[ASHIDO laughs]
Nice!
Clock this breakdown!
[ALL MIGHT] Young Midoriya,
have you sensed anything strange
in your Quirk since that night?
[IZUKU] No. Nothing I've
noticed, at least.
[ALL MIGHT]
Interesting. As I mentioned,
this is all new territory.
I've never heard of a
spontaneous activation before.
But I'm planning to ask Gran
Torino if he knows anything.
[IZUKU] Great! That would
be super helpful.
[whispering] Be careful
in that fifth battle.
Things could get weird.
After all, the vestiges of One
For All did first appear to you
during a match
against Young Shinso.
Right. I'll be on high alert.
--Again?
--[IZUKU] Yikes!
Kacchan, where did
you come from?
Uou two asked me to keep
your relationship a secret.
But you're always sneaking
around like this.
Are you stupid?
[ALL MIGHT gulps]
Don't you gulp at me!
Did something happen?
And don't lie.
[IZUKU]
Well... Actually...
[KATSUKI]
In your sleep?
Huh. You're so hopeless,
I can't tell if you're
improving or failing.
[IZUKU]
Honestly? I don't know, either.
[KATSUKI] When are you
gonna master One For All?
Soon? I've gotten stronger since
the last time we fought,
so you'd better be keeping up.
I'm trying. I swear.
[ALL MIGHT] Young Bakugo
is being considerate
in his own special way.
The hell're you smiling at?
I'm dead serious, ya idiot,
and that dumb look on
your face pisses me off!
[ALL MIGHT]
Or not.
[ALL MIGHT] Young Midoriya
seeing vestiges of One For All.
And he'll be fighting the person
who first triggered
their appearance.
I feel like everything
is connected somehow.
[ALL MIGHT] Master.
What are you and the other
previous users of our Quirk
trying to tell us?
How's my patient doing?
With these minor injuries,
you'll be back to normal
in half an hour.
You should be thankful
that your young body
heals so quickly.
And that skin! So supple.
[VLAD KING] The third match
will take place in an area
two blocks east of where the
previous rounds were held.
The cages have been moved
to your new bases.
This little breather is over!
Prepare for the
third training battle!
It's finally Iida's
turn to fight.
[IZUKU] This group has
Todoroki's two wide-range
ice and fire att*cks,
Iida's unmatched speed,
Shoji's superior scouting
capabilities, and Ojiro,
who excels at close combat.
Talk about a balanced team.
Lucky draws.
[MINETA] We've got Todoroki,
so it should be an easy win.
You shouldn't count your grapes
before they're grown, boys.
My grapes are huge!
[TOKOYAMI]
Todoroki.
Yeah, what's up?
Your throat feeling any better?
Yes, I took the
prescribed medication.
I will endure.
Glad to hear.
I performed shamefully
out there.
Please avenge us.
Wait, why is it up to me?
Our mentors, Hawks and Endeavor.
We studied under
the heroes who fought
the last great battle
still in people's minds.
That makes it our duty to uphold
the honor of the top two heroes.
I see.
[TODOROKI]
"The last great battle." Sure.
[ENDEAVOR]
I'll go Plus Ultra.
Prominence Burn!
[ENDEAVOR]
Shoto.
You must learn this move
if you're to advance.
Do not run from me.
Do not run from your nature!
Stand up!
Quit pretending to be weak!
Toya had the potential.
He had even more
firepower than me.
But he had your mother's
weak constitution.
He was close. Until...
It's on you now, Shoto!
It has to be.
You're the only one
who can do this move!
You can fulfill my ambition!
[TENYA]
Todoroki.
Todoroki?
Is something wrong?
You have quite a puzzled
look on your face.
Oh, really?
It's true. Are you
worried about something?
No, I'll be okay.
Thank you for asking.
He's not exactly the
most expressive person,
so I didn't notice.
That's impressive, Tenya.
It's my responsibility.
I am class representative.
I must aid any of
our troubled peers.
You seem really cheerful.
More than usual.
Yes, I am!
My brother's recovery
has been going well lately.
[OJIRO]
Oh. That's great to hear!
You know, I think the
hero Ingenium is finished.
At least for me.
[TENYA] No! You still
have so many people
to help and inspire, brother.
This can't be true.
[TENSEI]
That's why...
I want you to take the name.
Will you do that? For me, Tenya.
[TENYA] I also have the duty
to uphold my brother's honor
and live up to his name.
I'm watching everyone
closely, but that means
everyone's watching me, too.
I was third place
at the sports festival!
I'll show everybody that
I'm a worthy successor!
[IZUKU]
A worthy successor? Huh.
[TETSUTETSU] People always
treat me like I'm some kinda
hardheaded moron without a clue,
but I got accepted into UA
just like you guys.
It's not like I rush into things
without thinkin' of the endgame.
What are you talking about?
This unbalanced team
we're stuck with!
We don't have any scouts.
That's gonna spell
big trouble for us.
[KAIBARA]
You have a point.
[TETSUTETSU]
Then, what'll we do?
Huh, guys?
We just talked about our pl--
[TETSUTETSU]
I'll tell ya what.
What?
We'll have to level this place!
Terrible idea!
Come on, come on,
come on, come on, come on!
[KAIBARA]
Are you nuts?
Mr. Vlad said to keep
damage to a minimum.
[TETSUTETSU] Smashy, smashy,
smash, smash, smash!
Okay. Maybe I should start
shouting directly
in the kid's face.
[OJIRO]
What's that?
[SHOJI] I hear the screeching
sounds of metal against metal.
My guess? Tetsutetsu's loose.
Level thise whole place!
[PRESENT MIC]
Class B, Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu.
Hero name: Real Steel.
Quirk: Steel.
[PRESENT MIC] He can turn
his entire body into metal.
That means he's both a deadly
sword and the perfect shield.
[TETSUTETSU]
Take this! And this!
No cheap tricks needed!
It's a fight to the death!
A brawl for the ages!
Hold on!
The other team's
got Todoroki on it!
Don't care!
I thought you said
you were thinking!
You're just being obstinate.
[HONENUKI] Well, we can work
with this, too, I suppose.
And your thinking's
too flexible, Juzo!
Ah, jeez! You're gonna dog-gone
blow it for us, metalhead!
You hear, what you're
making Pony sound like?
Is this what you want?
[HONENUKI] Tetsutetsu
doesn't mean any harm.
In fact, his approach
even plays to our strengths.
Great, now you're the one
who sounds crazy.
[laughing] Bring it on,
ya villains!
[SHOJI]
The sound is getting louder.
Based on the reverberations,
I believe he's destroying
their surroundings.
He's a good brawler.
They must intend
to fight us head-on.
If that's the case,
I welcome the approach.
It'll make it easier
for us to deal with them.
Agreed.
[TENYA]
All right.
Time to make our class proud.
Let's go, Team !
[KIDO] The villain is continuing
to flee down route five.
[VILLAIN A laughs]
[KIDO]
Looks like we've been successful
at driving him
toward the harbor.
[VILLAIN A]
Not catchin' me.
[VILLAIN A]
E-Endeavor?
You won't escape!
[VILLAIN A]
I'll take a hostage!
[ENDEAVOR]
Get outta here! Run!
[BOYS scream]
[VILLAIN A]
Damn you. Let go of me!
I'm afraid I can't do that.
[VILLAIN A yels]
No, stop, please!
I'll go quietly!
[ONIMA]
Good work, Endeavor!
Clean arrest.
[ENDEAVOR]
Collateral damage?
[KIDO]
Little to speak of.
[ONIMA] Yeah, not many
people at the harbor.
It was a smart plan.
Of course.
[BOY C]
Um. 'Scuse me.
[ENDEAVOR]
What is it?
We just wanted to say thank you!
For saving us!
Any of you hurt at all?
[ALL]
No, sir!
[ENDEAVOR]
Best be off then.
[BOYS]
Bye!
Endeavor, sir?
We've had another hero ask
about teaming up with you.
You want me to make
the usual report?
Yes.
Just compile a list
of active requests.
[ENDEAVOR]
With Fuyumi's help.
I finally, finally got
Shoto's contact info.
[ENDEAVOR]
Shoto, there's something
I want to tell you once more.
So stop ignoring my messages!
I'm not the same person
who disregarded
what you wanted in life!
Do not run from me.
Do not run from your nature!
Stand up!
Quit pretending to be weak!
[ENDEAVOR] Now that you're
working toward becoming
your own hero, I want
to teach you that move,
like a good father.
To do that...
...you have to stop
ignoring my messages.
Shoto!
[ENDEAVOR]
Shoto!
[ONIMA] His kid's probably
in class, right?
[KIDO] It feels like
all this "Shoto" shouting
is getting worse by the day.
[sneezes]
[TENYA]
Are you okay?
I didn't think
you ever got sick!
[TODOROKI]
Yes. I'm sure I'm fine.
[OJIRO]
We're almost there.
You know the plan,
let's all spread out.
[TENYA]
On it!
[SHOJI]
Make it count, Todoroki.
[laughing]
[TSUNOTORI]
Tetsutetsu!
The other team's
not gonna show up
just because you're
making a racket!
They'll think it's a trap!
[HONENUKI]
No.
I'd head this way
if I were them.
Get Shoji to figure out
what's going on,
then have Todoroki unleash
a powerful att*ck.
If I thought the other team
was standing around
out in the open...
[groaning]
[MINETA] That's our super
strong ice master!
So cool!
And he made the ice
so it's not blocking
their line of sight.
He's gotten better!
Now we know where
Todoroki is. The others?
Can't see them!
[TENYA] Even if Honenuki
has used his Quirk
to soften the ground on us,
it won't matter if we
stick them in place.
[OJIRO]
With their movements inhibited,
we'll take them in one swoop.
[TENYA]
Reciproburst!
Come get some!
[TENYA]
What?
[HONENUKI]
Blasting ice is a cheap move.
Though if you'd been
coldhearted and used fire,
we wouldn't have been
able to trap you.
[PRESENT MIC]
Class B, Juzo Honenuki.
Hero name: Mudman.
Quirk: Softening.
He makes the things
he touches turn soft.
They go back to normal
when he touches them again.
Doesn't work on living
things though.
Thanks, Juzo!
Gotta love how flexible
that power is.
[PRESENT MIC] This relaxed
rockstar took one of
Class B's
recommendation spots!
He must have activated his Quirk
the moment the ice appeared.
A fast reaction.
I'll retreat for now
and wait for--
[HONENUKI] Found you!
I softened a bunch of random
stuff around here, so it'd
be smart to watch your step.
[VLAD KING]
Class B does an excellent job
of brushing off
Todoroki's area att*ck!
Now, to show their stuff!
[SERO] Honenuki guessed
that the ice was coming?
[SATO] That, or he
improvised crazy fast.
Is he really that good
at reading the situation?
I hope our classmates
haven't been thrown off.
Nice job, Juzo!
I'll handle Ojiro!
[OJIRO grunts]
[OJIRO] I can't guard
against this for long!
[PRESENT MIC]
Class B, Sen Kaibara.
Hero name: Spiral.
Quirk: Gyrate.
He can make any part of his body
spin like a supercharged drill!
[TENYA]
Ojiro!
Caught again?
[HONENUKI]
Your legs are only as strong
as what you're standing on.
The ground beneath
the ice is also softened.
You're difficult to deal with.
So I'll leave you trapped
in the muck for now.
[TENYA] Are you trying to keep
us from working as a team?
Villain! Your wickedness
knows no bounds!
[SHINSO]
He really gets into character.
It's going to be hard for
them to get around now.
Class B's team doesn't have
anyone good at reconnaissance.
But as long as their opponents
are trapped in one place,
that's not a disadvantage.
With his ice off the table,
Todoroki is operating
at half his power.
Correctomundo.
All that's left is
to overwhelm them.
[TODOROKI]
In this situation,
I can't use my Quirk
to the best of my abilities.
Should I go to the front?
Then there'd be no one
to guard Shoji as he scouts.
[TODOROKI]
What?
[TSUNOTORI]
I was betting they'd keep Shoji
in what they thought
was a safe place
far from where we are! Like...
...hidden behind their
so-called "ace" Todoroki!
[PRESENT MIC]
Class B, Pony Tsunotori.
Quirk: Horn Cannon.
She can send her horns flyin'!
Currently, she can control
up to four of them
once they've sh*t off her head!
She's pretty particular
about keeping them polished.
[SHOJI grunts] These are
stronger than I expected.
Tetsutetsu!
[TETSUTETSU]
Here we go.
Horn Dash Hammer!
Are my teeth chattering?
You're so freaking cold,
my brain feels like
it's gettin' frosty.
If I weren't on top of things,
you'd freeze my steel solid!
Think you can b*at me
in a hand-to-hand fight?
You don't stand a chance!
Man's been paying attention.
He's doing what Mr. Aizawa said
I shoulda done in my match.
Nah, I bet he's not
thinkin' all that much.
Honenuki seems like the one
who's calling most of the sh*ts.
What's the matter?
You keep on dodging!
Be good and stay there, okay?
[TENYA]
You are evil incarnate!
[HONENUKI]
Sorry 'bout it.
Recipro has a time limit, right?
Not so smart to use it
right at the beginning.
Anyway, I'm gonna go
help Tetsutetsu.
[TENYA]
A time limit?
That was a while ago, Mudman.
Ingenium will rush
anywhere at anytime.
That's what these legs are for!
They won't be constrained!
[TENYA]
You see?
I've been at full throttle
this entire time!
New Style. Recipro Turbo!
[HONENUKI]
Seriously?
[TENSEI]
Congrats on getting your
provisional license, little bro.
[TENYA]
Thanks, Tensei.
You're abusing your Engine
a bit much though, aren't you?
Hey, Mom.
He's getting close
to that age, you know?
Don't you think it's time?
[TENYA'S MOM]
Well, he's matured,
but I still feel like it
might be too soon for that.
[TENYA]
Tuning my Engine?
Yeah. Training is good,
but you can also pull
your mufflers out.
Do it right, and parts that
can take more of a b*ating
will grow back in their place.
It's a technique passed
down from our grandfather
so that the Iida family
can help more people
and do it faster
than anyone else.
This will be painful, though.
And it takes a lot
of dedication.
But if you want to improve your
quirk, this is the way to do it.
[TENYA]
I've raised Recipro's horsepower
and lowered fuel consumption
to the minimum!
Ten minutes!
[TENYA]
For ten minutes,
nobody can stop me!
[IZUKU]
Here's the preview!
The Class A team is being
driven into a corner
by Honenuki's flexible response.
The key to their recovery from
this dire situation is Iida's
new and improved Recipro Turbo,
and Todoroki's left side.
Burn bright, Todoroki.
You have to use that
power if you're serious
about becoming the hero
I know you want to be!
Next time:
"Match Conclusion."
It's gonna be
one intense finale.
Go beyond! Plus Ultra!
