01x08 - (S) Bakugou's Starting Line

[bunniefuu]

'Cause I'm better than you!

I can't see you even if I tried.

You're so lucky, Kacchan.

Your Quirk's so cool!

I hope I get mine soon, too.

No matter what Quirk you get, you'll never beat me.

He's just a pebble!

Until a little while ago...

...he was just a pebble on the side of the road.

You have got a flashy Quirk there, don't you?!

Hey!

You tricked me, didn't you?!

Was it fun tricking me all this time?!

Try and get me with it!

'Cause I'm way above you!

What the—?

Improvised special move—

Comet Home Run!

You call that a home run?!

Retrieved!

From the start, you were...

I wasn't...

...going to use it...

Because I can't use it...

Because my body...

...can't handle... the impact...

Mr. Aizawa too...

...said... so...

But...

...this was all...

...I could think of!

Someone told me...

"You can become a hero"...

That's why...

I'm going...!



Indoor person-to-person combat training...

Uraraka?!

Hero team...

...wins!

What the heck?

The losers are practically uninjured...

...and the winners are on the ground...

They lost the battle, but won the w*r, huh?

This is training, though.

To the nurse's office.

I know.

My right...

Deku predicted it...

On top of that...

...he found a way to win the exercise...

You're an amazing person, so that's why I want to beat you!

I want to win...

...and surpass you, you idiot!

Does that mean...

...even if we fought all-out...

...Deku would completely beat...?

Come back, young Bakugou.

It's time to review the results.

Whether you win or lose...

...looking back and learning from your experiences is a part of life.

Well, even if I say that...

...the MVP for this battle was young Iida!

It's not either of the winners, Ochako or Midoriya?

Hmm, well...

Why is that?

Does anyone know?!

Yes, Mr. All Might.

That is because Iida adapted the most to the context of the training.

From watching the match, it appears Bakugou acted on his own because of an obviously personal grudge.

And as Mr. All Might said earlier...

...it is foolish to launch a large-scale attack indoors.

In the same way, taking into consideration the damage he received...

...Midoriya's plan was also rash.

As for Uraraka...

She let her guard down mid-battle...

...and her final attack was too reckless.

If she treated the papier-mache as a real w*apon...

...she would not have been able to do something so dangerous.

Iida had prepared for his opponent's arrival...

...and assumed it would be a fight over the w*apon...

...which made him late in responding to the final attack.

The hero team only won because they took advantage of the fact that this was training.

They were practically breaking the rules.

She said more than I expected.

W-Well, young Iida also has parts of him that could be more relaxed...

...but well... that was correct!

We should always start with the basics to develop depth of learning.

We must strive to devote ourselves wholeheartedly.

Otherwise, we cannot become top heroes.

Yaoyorozu Momo!

One of four students admitted to the hero course based on recommendations!

All right everyone, let's change locations and start the second match.

Tackle this training after thinking about what we just talked about.

Yes, sir!

Yes, sir!

Match two!

Duo B are the heroes!

{and }Duo I are the villains!

Ojiro.

I'm going to get serious!

I'll take off my gloves and boots, too!

O-Okay...

Hagakure, that's the correct decision as an invisible person,

but that's not great for a girl, morally speaking.

You can't look, okay?

I can't see you anyway.

Now, let s start the second indoor person-to-person combat training match!

Shouji Mezou!

Quirk: Dupli-Arms!

He can create replicas of his own body parts on the tips of his tentacles.

One in the hall on the north side of the fourth floor.

The other is somewhere on the same floor...

They're barefoot...

The invisible one is coming to ambush and capture us, huh?

Go outside.

It's dangerous.

I'm sure our opponents intend to fight a defensive battle...

...but that does not matter to me.

Owww...

My feet!

Th-This Quirk is...!

You can move if you want...

...but the skin on your feet will come off, so you won't be able to fight your best.

He did not cause any damage to his teammate or the nuclear w*apon,

and on top of that, he weakened the enemy.

He's so strong!

Hero team wins!

Heat?

{It's-It's-It's }Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!

Sorry.

The difference in our ability was too great.

Todoroki Shouto!

He's another one of the four admitted to the hero course based on recommendations.

His Quirk is Half-Cold, Half-Hot.

He freezes with his right and burns with his left!

The range and temperature of his ability is unknown?!

What is he, a monster?!

W-Wow!

What's up with that Quirk?

As expected of someone who got in through recommendations.

All right, everyone gather round for a review of the second match.

Next, we will begin the third match!

Yes, sir!

Yes, sir!

Ribbit, ribbit.

No, no, no, no!

Yahoo!

Sorry, sorry!

Good work everyone!

We didn't have any major injuries other than young Midoriya, either!

You guys took this on seriously!

You all did a good job for your first training!

To have such a proper class after Mr. Aizawa's class...

...it's kind of anticlimactic...

We're free to have proper classes, as well!

Well then, I must review the results with young Midoriya!

Change and return...

...to the classroom!

All Might's amazing!

Why was he in such a hurry?

So cool...

Young Bakugou...

...is a mass of pride...

...and there's nothing more fragile than a heart that's swelled to bursting.

As his teacher, I must counsel him well.

But right now...

If I teach a class...

...I barely have enough time.

Shit!



The school year has just begun,

and he's already been in here three times!

Why didn't you stop him, All Might?!

I apologize, Recovery Girl.

What are you apologizing to me for?

On top of his total exhaustion, he was here just yesterday.

I can't treat him all at once.

I did first-aid treatment already,

so after the IV is finished, we can only wait for his body to heal slowly overnight.

Jeez...

I know he's your favorite and that you passed on your powers to him, but doesn't mean you should spoil him!

There is nothing I can say to that.

Because I wanted to consider his feelings...

...I hesitated to stop the training match.

Even so...

...will you please not talk about One For All so loudly?!

Yes, yes, Mr. Natural-Born Hero.

Mr. Symbol of Peace.

My injury and this form of mine are common knowledge among the U.A. teachers and a certain group of pros...

...but the secret of my Quirk, One For All,

...is known only to you, the principal, my close friends, and young Midoriya.

I know it's not like you want to rest on your laurels at the top...

...but is being a "natural-born hero" or the "Symbol of Peace" really that important?

If I no longer am, then the superhuman society will be seized by evil.

This is...

...the responsibility of those of us with this power.

If that's the case, then it's even more important for you to learn what it means to guide someone!

Yes, ma'am.

You...

...can become a hero.

Will you accept my power?

"One For All"...

Smash...!

Come, young Midoriya.

This is your...

...hero academia!

I have a lot to learn from here on out...

...in order to get closer to what I dream of becoming!

My "Deku" isn't always going to mean "useless"!

Kacchan...

...my "Deku" means 'You can do it!"

It's... late afternoon...?

Are you awake?

That's all for today's treatment.

Come back again tomorrow, okay?

I ended up skipping my afternoon classes...

Mr. Aizawa's gonna wrap me in those bindings again...

Oh, Midoriya's here!

Good work!

Man, I don't know what you were saying during the match,

but you were fired up!

I can't believe you fought evenly with Bakugou, who was first in the entrance exam!

You did a good job dodging!

You guys did that in the first match, so the rest of us had to give it our all, too.

You were far from elegant, but—

You did a good job dodging!

H-Huh?

I'm Kirishima Eijirou!

We're all going over the training together right now.

I'm Sero Hanta.

I'm Aoyama Yu—

I'm Ashido Mina!

You did a good job dodging!

I'm Asui Tsuyu.

Call me Tsu.

I'm Sato!

Um...

Er—

I'm Mineta!

Where the heck did you pop out from?

I am Aoyama Yuuga.

You did terrible in the training.

I am a man who never stops shining.

You're too loud.

Tokoyami!

That desk is not a chair!

Get off immediately!

It's not that big a deal, is it?

Wh—?!

What's with those hands, anyway?

You people...

I cannot condone actions that disrespect the desks

the great men and women who are our upperclassmen once used!

You're too loud.

Iida never wavers, does he?

Hey, Uraraka, wanna grab a bite to eat sometime?

What do you like?

Mochi—

Wait, Deku, she didn't heal your injuries?

Oh, uh, it's because of how much stamina I have, and...

Huh?

Um, Uraraka... more importantly...

We all tried to stop him,

but he went home just now without saying anything.

Hey!

You tricked me, didn't you?!

Was it fun tricking me all this time?!

You have got a flashy Quirk there, don't you?!

Kacchan!

Kacchan!

Huh?

It's a secret I didn't even tell my mom.

But...

There's one thing...

...I feel like I have to tell you.

My Quirk...

...is something I received from someone else.

Huh?

I can't say who I got it from, though!

I won't say.

But... it's like a story out of comic books, except it's true.

On top of that, I still can't control it properly.

It's just a borrowed power that I haven't made my own yet.

That's why...

...I tried to beat you without using it.

But in the end, I couldn't win and had to rely on it.

I've still got a long way to go...

That's why...

That's why...!

One day...

...I will make this Quirk my own...

...and beat you with my own power!

I just came to tell him I didn't trick him....

What am I...?

What the hell is that?

"Borrowed power"?

You're talking nonsense.

What are you trying to do, make me out to be more of a fool than you already have?

Huh?!

What are you trying to say?

Today, I lost to you...!

That's all it was...!

That's all!

As I watched the ice guy...

...I thought, "I can't beat him"!

...it is foolish to launch a large-scale attack indoors.

Damn it!

I ended up agreeing with what that ponytail girl said!

Damn it!

Damn it, damn it!

Hey, you too, Deku!

I'm just...!

I'm just getting started!

You hear?!

Here, I will become number one!

You won't beat me again, bastard!

There he is!

Young...

...Bakugou!

Just so you know...

...pride is important.

You definitely have the abilities needed to become a pro.

You still have a lot of—

Let go of me, All Might.

I can't walk.

I'll become a hero that surpasses even you without you telling me!

Huh?

Uh...

Right...

He's gotten over it.

It's hard being a teacher...

What was that?

The fated battle between men.

It looked like Midoriya was just giving excuses one-sidedly, though.

The fated battle between men!

Kacchan's fuse has been lit.

That doesn't change what I have to do.

I just have to chase after him!

Young Midoriya!

What were you talking about with young Bakugou?

Um, we were, uh...

Hmm...

I'm so curious.

Why don't you tell me in detail?

U-Um... a-actually...

A few days later...

...we would find out...

...how terrifying the truly cunning villains... All Might warned us about were.

Did you see this?

It says he's a teacher...

Hey.

What do you think will happen...

...if the Symbol of Peace...

...is k*lled by villains?

All heroes have their starting point!

Next time, "Yeah, Just Do Your Best, Iida!"

A lot of stuff happens and young Midoriya gets swept away in the crowd!

Look forward to it!

Go beeeeeeyond!

Plus Ultra!
