1. The world has become
a superhuman society,
Copy !req
2. and about 80% of the world's population
now has some kind of special trait.
Copy !req
3. In this world swirling with chaos,
Copy !req
4. the profession that everyone
once dreamed about and admired
Copy !req
5. came into the limelight.
Copy !req
6. Heroes of justice
Copy !req
7. fighting villains
and saving people from distress.
Copy !req
8. Yes,
Copy !req
9. this is the story of how
I became the greatest hero.
Copy !req
10. The U.A. sports festival is drawing near.
Copy !req
11. Of course,
joining a famous hero agency
Copy !req
12. will get you more experience
and popularity.
Copy !req
13. One chance a year.
Copy !req
14. A total of just three chances.
Copy !req
15. No aspiring heroes can afford
to miss this event.
Copy !req
16. If you understand that,
then don't slack off on your preparations!
Copy !req
17. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
18. The U.A. sports festival
is something pro heroes.
Copy !req
19. No, the whole country is watching closely.
A big event!
Copy !req
20. That is what I brought
you here to talk about!
Copy !req
21. The next All Might.
The fledgling Symbol of Peace…
Copy !req
22. Izuku Midoriya.
Copy !req
23. I want you to tell the world "I am here!"
Copy !req
24. "I am here"…
Copy !req
25. But how?
Copy !req
26. You know
the sports festival system, right?
Copy !req
27. Yes, of course!
Copy !req
28. The support, business, general studies
Copy !req
29. and hero courses come together
Copy !req
30. and fight through preliminary games
of different types by class year.
Copy !req
31. The students who make it through
face off in the finals.
Copy !req
32. It's a round-robin tournament
divided by grade.
Copy !req
33. That's right!
Copy !req
34. In other words, you can sell yourself
with everything you've got!
Copy !req
35. Right…
Copy !req
36. I mean,
what you say is absolutely correct!
Copy !req
37. But honestly,
Copy !req
38. it's kind of hard to get completely
into it right after what just happened…
Copy !req
39. Besides, All Might is already teaching me,
Copy !req
40. so I'm not as motivated
to stand out at the sports festival…
Copy !req
41. In the first place, I don't think
I can stand out in my current state,
Copy !req
42. and I did terribly in the fitness tests…
Copy !req
43. No one's better at spouting
nonsense than you!
Copy !req
44. Nonsense?
Copy !req
45. Those who are always aiming
for the top, and those who aren't.
Copy !req
46. That slight difference in attitudes
Copy !req
47. will have a big impact
once you go out into society.
Copy !req
48. I understand how you feel,
and this is more for me than for you.
Copy !req
49. I won't force you.
Copy !req
50. However,
Copy !req
51. I hope you won't forget
how you felt back at the beach park.
Copy !req
52. Wh…
Copy !req
53. What's going on?
Copy !req
54. What business do you have with Class A?
Copy !req
55. We can't get out!
Copy !req
56. What'd you come here for, anyway?
Copy !req
57. Scouting out the enemy, small fry.
Copy !req
58. We're the ones who made it
out of the villains' attack.
Copy !req
59. They probably wanna check us out
for the sports festival.
Copy !req
60. There's no point in doing stuff like that.
Copy !req
61. Out of my way, extras!
Copy !req
62. Stop calling people "extras"
just because you don't know them!
Copy !req
63. I came to see
what the famous Class A was like,
Copy !req
64. but you seem pretty arrogant.
Copy !req
65. Are all the students
in the hero course like this?
Copy !req
66. Seeing something like this
makes me disillusioned.
Copy !req
67. There are quite a few people who enrolled
in general studies or other courses
Copy !req
68. because they didn't make it
into the hero course.
Copy !req
69. Did you know that?
Copy !req
70. The school has left those of us a chance.
Copy !req
71. Depending on the results
of the sports festival,
Copy !req
72. they'll consider our transfer
into the hero course.
Copy !req
73. And it seems they may
also transfer people out.
Copy !req
74. Scouting out the enemy?
Copy !req
75. I, at least, came to say
Copy !req
76. that even if you're in the hero course,
Copy !req
77. if you get too carried away,
I'll sweep your feet out from under you.
Copy !req
78. I came with a declaration of war.
Copy !req
79. This person's bold, too!
Copy !req
80. Hey, hey!
Copy !req
81. I'm from Class B next door!
Copy !req
82. I heard you fought against villains,
so I came to hear 'bout it!
Copy !req
83. Don't get so full of yourself!
Copy !req
84. Another bold person!
Copy !req
85. If you bark too much,
Copy !req
86. it'll be embarrassing
for you durin' the real fight!
Copy !req
87. You ignorin' me, bastard?
Copy !req
88. Wait a minute, Bakugo!
What're you gonna do about all this?
Copy !req
89. It's your fault
that everyone's hating on us!
Copy !req
90. It doesn't matter.
Copy !req
91. Huh?
Copy !req
92. It doesn't matter
as long as you rise to the top.
Copy !req
93. Damnit, you bastard!
Copy !req
94. That's so simple and manly!
Copy !req
95. - Huh?
- You said it.
Copy !req
96. - Huh?
- The top, huh? There is truth in that.
Copy !req
97. Hang on, don't be tricked!
Copy !req
98. He just made more pointless enemies!
Copy !req
99. That's right!
Copy !req
100. We'll just be at a disadvantage
at the sports festival!
Copy !req
101. I'm just…
Copy !req
102. I'm just getting started!
Copy !req
103. You hear?
Copy !req
104. Here, I will become number one!
Copy !req
105. Kacchan…
Copy !req
106. Am I… an idiot…?
Copy !req
107. I'll definitely become
Copy !req
108. a hero and make money
and let my parents take it easy—
Copy !req
109. I set my sights on being a hero
because I want to be like my brother—
Copy !req
110. Time is limited.
Copy !req
111. If you expect to go pro,
then the path to your future—
Copy !req
112. That slight difference in attitudes
will have a big impact
Copy !req
113. once you go out into society.
Copy !req
114. I hope you won't forget how
you felt
Copy !req
115. back at the beach park.
Copy !req
116. The U.A. sports festival is in two weeks.
Copy !req
117. It'll be broadcast live on TV, too.
Copy !req
118. There's no doubt
Copy !req
119. that those who do well have a much better
chance of becoming pro heroes.
Copy !req
120. We won't know what events we'll
be participating in until the day of.
Copy !req
121. But I'm sure everyone
has started getting ready.
Copy !req
122. Ribbit!
Copy !req
123. Here I go!
Copy !req
124. Release!
Copy !req
125. Sparkle!
Copy !req
126. Yes!
Copy !req
127. Yesh!
Copy !req
128. Damn it! What the…
Copy !req
129. Thank you!
Copy !req
130. Time passed in the blink of an eye,
Copy !req
131. and the morning
of the sports festival arrived.
Copy !req
132. Izuku, be careful not to get hurt.
Copy !req
133. Okay.
Copy !req
134. I'll record it, okay? In high resolution.
Copy !req
135. Okay.
Copy !req
136. Do your best.
Copy !req
137. I'm off!
Copy !req
138. The bag check's taking forever.
Copy !req
139. They were just attacked by villains.
Copy !req
140. Of course they'll be more strict.
Copy !req
141. There are people criticizing
their decision to hold it this year.
Copy !req
142. Controversy equals ratings!
Copy !req
143. Class 1-A will be the ones
to watch this year, huh?
Copy !req
144. With the passion of their last chance
and the tactics from their experience,
Copy !req
145. the third years have always been
the main event in past years…
Copy !req
146. But this year, the first-year
stage is the one to watch!
Copy !req
147. Hey, did you know that Endeavor's son
is a first-year this year?
Copy !req
148. No way, seriously? Wow!
Copy !req
149. The first-year stage
is gonna be good, huh?
Copy !req
150. One order of takoyaki, please.
Copy !req
151. Oh, Mt. Lady!
Copy !req
152. No green seaweed.
Copy !req
153. - One, right? That'll be 500 yen.
- Huh?
Copy !req
154. I don't have that much
on me right now…
Copy !req
155. That's hot! It's free!
Copy !req
156. Thanks!
Copy !req
157. Have you no pride?
Copy !req
158. I had also hoped to be
able to do some scouting.
Copy !req
159. We have to work security,
so we don't have a choice.
Copy !req
160. It looks like they called pro heroes
from all over the country this year.
Copy !req
161. CLASS 1-A WAITING ROOM
Copy !req
162. Man…
Copy !req
163. I wanted to wear my costume.
Copy !req
164. To keep everything fair, we can't.
Copy !req
165. I wonder what the first round's gonna be…
Copy !req
166. No matter what comes, we have
no choice but to deal with it.
Copy !req
167. Right.
Copy !req
168. Everyone, are you ready?
Copy !req
169. We will be entering soon!
Copy !req
170. Person…
Copy !req
171. Midoriya.
Copy !req
172. Todoroki? What is it?
Copy !req
173. Looking at things objectively,
I think I'm stronger than you.
Copy !req
174. Huh?
Copy !req
175. Yeah…
Copy !req
176. But…
All Might has his eye on you, doesn't he?
Copy !req
177. I'm not trying to pry about that.
Copy !req
178. But I'm going to beat you.
Copy !req
179. Oh?
Copy !req
180. Is the best in the class
making a declaration of war?
Copy !req
181. Hey, hey, hey! Why are you
picking a fight all of a sudden?
Copy !req
182. Not now, we're about to start!
Copy !req
183. We're not here to play at being friends.
Copy !req
184. So what does it matter?
Copy !req
185. Todoroki,
Copy !req
186. I don't know what you're thinking
when you say you'll beat me,
Copy !req
187. but of course you're better than me.
Copy !req
188. I think
Copy !req
189. you're more capable
than most people…
Copy !req
190. Looking at it objectively…
Copy !req
191. Midoriya, you probably
shouldn't talk so negatively—
Copy !req
192. But, everyone.
Copy !req
193. The students from the other
courses are aiming
Copy !req
194. for the top with everything they've got!
Copy !req
195. I want to become the greatest hero!
Copy !req
196. I can't afford to fall behind.
Copy !req
197. I'll be going for it
with everything I have, too.
Copy !req
198. Yeah.
Copy !req
199. Hey!
Copy !req
200. Pay attention, audience!
Copy !req
201. Swarm, mass media!
Copy !req
202. This year's high school rodeo
Copy !req
203. of adolescence that you all love,
Copy !req
204. the U.A. sports festival,
is about to begin!
Copy !req
205. Everybody, are you ready?
Copy !req
206. It's time for the students
to enter the first-year stage!
Copy !req
207. Izuku…
Copy !req
208. I want you to tell the world "I am here!"
Copy !req
209. Roger that, All Might!
Copy !req
210. The U.A. sports festival!
Copy !req
211. The huge battle where fledgling heroes
sharpen their swords once a year!
Copy !req
212. Anyway, these are the guys, right?
Copy !req
213. The miraculous new stars who overcame
enemy attacks with their hearts of steel!
Copy !req
214. Hero course, Class 1-A, right?
Copy !req
215. There are so many people…
Copy !req
216. Will we be able
to give our best performance
Copy !req
217. being watched by so many people?
Copy !req
218. This is also part of the training
required to become a hero.
Copy !req
219. Man, he's going overboard
with that praise!
Copy !req
220. I'm getting nervous!
Aren't you, Bakugo?
Copy !req
221. No, I'm just getting more into it.
Copy !req
222. They haven't been getting as much airtime,
Copy !req
223. but this class is also full of talent!
Copy !req
224. Hero course, Class 1-B!
Copy !req
225. Next up, general studies
Classes C, D, and E!
Copy !req
226. Support course, Classes F,
G, and H are here, too!
Copy !req
227. And business course, Classes I, J, and K!
Copy !req
228. All of U.A.'s first years are here now!
Copy !req
229. We're just here to make
those guys look better, huh?
Copy !req
230. I'm not really feeling it…
Copy !req
231. Time for the player pledge!
Copy !req
232. This year's chief umpire for the
first years is the R-Rated Hero, Midnight?
Copy !req
233. What about the principal?
Copy !req
234. The principal is at the third-year stage
every year.
Copy !req
235. What is Ms. Midnight wearing?
Copy !req
236. That's an R-Rated Hero for you.
Copy !req
237. Is it okay for her to be at a high school
even though she's R-Rated?
Copy !req
238. Yes!
Copy !req
239. Quiet, everyone!
Copy !req
240. Representing the students is
Copy !req
241. Katsuki Bakugo from Class 1-A!
Copy !req
242. What? It's Kacchan?
Copy !req
243. That guy did finish first
in the entrance exam.
Copy !req
244. In the hero course.
Copy !req
245. Right.
It's obvious she hates us.
Copy !req
246. And it's all Bakugo's fault.
Copy !req
247. I pledge
Copy !req
248. that I'll be number one.
Copy !req
249. I knew he'd do that!
Copy !req
250. - What the heck!
- Stop messing around!
Copy !req
251. - Don't be so full of yourselves, Class A!
- You sludge bastard!
Copy !req
252. Why are you doing
something so disgraceful?
Copy !req
253. At least become a nice bouncy
step for me to jump off of.
Copy !req
254. How overconfident can you get?
Copy !req
255. I'll crush you!
Copy !req
256. Confidence? No…
Copy !req
257. The old Kacchan would've
laughed while saying that.
Copy !req
258. He's driving himself into a corner.
Copy !req
259. Getting the rest of us caught up in it
is just like Kacchan, though.
Copy !req
260. Now, let's get started right away.
Copy !req
261. U.A. does everything "right away," huh?
Copy !req
262. Every year, many drink their tears here!
Copy !req
263. Now, here is the fateful first game!
Copy !req
264. This year, it's…
Copy !req
265. This!
Copy !req
266. An obstacle course race.
Copy !req
267. All 11 classes
will participate in this race.
Copy !req
268. The course will be the outer circumference
of this stadium about four kilometers!
Copy !req
269. Our school's selling point is freedom!
Copy !req
270. As long as you stay on the course,
Copy !req
271. it doesn't matter what you do!
Copy !req
272. Now, take your places everyone!
Copy !req
273. All Might…
Copy !req
274. I want you to tell the world "I am here!"
Copy !req
275. Thinking about it realistically,
Copy !req
276. without really being able
to regulate One For All…
Copy !req
277. That's too unreasonable…
Copy !req
278. That's why I have to go beyond.
Copy !req
279. Please watch me!
Copy !req
280. Start!
Copy !req
281. Okay, here's the play-by-play!
Copy !req
282. Are you ready to do the
commentary, Mummy Man?
Copy !req
283. You're the one who forced me to come.
Copy !req
284. Let's get started right away, Mummy Man.
Copy !req
285. What should we pay attention
to in the early stages?
Copy !req
286. This part right now.
Copy !req
287. - Hey, hey!
- This is too narrow!
Copy !req
288. - Ouch!
- Hey, move!
Copy !req
289. I see…
Copy !req
290. This means, from the start, it's already…
Copy !req
291. The first sifting.
Copy !req
292. Sorry, but…
Copy !req
293. - Ow! What the—
- It's freezing over! I can't move!
Copy !req
294. - So cold!
- Outta the way! I can't get it off!
Copy !req
295. Take that!
Copy !req
296. Naive, Todoroki!
Copy !req
297. I won't let you get away so easily!
Copy !req
298. You half-and-half bastard!
Copy !req
299. You got me with that once.
You won't get me again!
Copy !req
300. Woah, that was close!
Copy !req
301. I can't use my special move yet…
Copy !req
302. They're used to using their Quirks, huh…
Copy !req
303. More people outside of Class A
were able to dodge that than I expected…
Copy !req
304. I've outwitted you, Todoroki!
Copy !req
305. How pathetic!
Copy !req
306. Take this! My special attack!
Copy !req
307. Gra…
Copy !req
308. Mineta!
Copy !req
309. Targets found…
Copy !req
310. Lots!
Copy !req
311. The faux villains from the entrance exam?
Copy !req
312. Obstacles have shown up suddenly!
Copy !req
313. Starting with…
Copy !req
314. The first barrier!
Copy !req
315. Robo Inferno!
Copy !req
316. Aren't those the zero-point villains
from the entrance exam?
Copy !req
317. - Seriously?
- This is what they meant by obstacles?
Copy !req
318. So this is what they used
in the general entrance exam?
Copy !req
319. I wonder where they got the money for it?
Copy !req
320. If they went through all this trouble,
Copy !req
321. I wish they would've prepared
something better.
Copy !req
322. Since my stupid old man is watching.
Copy !req
323. He stopped them!
Copy !req
324. Between their legs! We can get through!
Copy !req
325. I wouldn't if I were you.
Copy !req
326. I froze them when they were unbalanced.
Copy !req
327. They'll fall over.
Copy !req
328. Todoroki from Class 1-A!
Copy !req
329. He attacked and defended in one hit!
Copy !req
330. How elegant!
Copy !req
331. Amazing! He's the first one through!
Copy !req
332. It's, you know, practically unfair!
Copy !req
333. His actions are logical and strategic.
Copy !req
334. As expected of someone
who got in through recommendations!
Copy !req
335. He'd never fought them before,
Copy !req
336. but those Robo Infernos couldn't
get past his elite moves!
Copy !req
337. Gotta hurry!
Copy !req
338. You can't beat those.
Copy !req
339. Run…
Copy !req
340. Run away, Izuku!
Copy !req
341. I have to get past these robots
while also paying attention
Copy !req
342. to the obstacles around me.
Copy !req
343. Idiot, why?
Copy !req
344. Why can't I move?
Copy !req
345. Come on, think!
Copy !req
346. Now what?
Copy !req
347. Time for the preview!
Listen to me and listen good!
Copy !req
348. It's the preview!
Why are you so mad, Kacchan?
Copy !req
349. Listen, this sports festival
obstacle course race
Copy !req
350. is gonna end with me at the top,
you scum!
Copy !req
351. That's not a preview.
That's more like a personal wish…
Copy !req
352. Shut up, be quiet, you damn nerd!
Copy !req
353. If you're even a step ahead of me,
I'll crush you, no questions asked!
Copy !req
354. Even if you don't get ahead
of me, I'll still crush you!
Copy !req
355. It's too scary either way!
Copy !req
356. Next time, "In Their Own Quirky Ways."
Copy !req
357. In the final stages of the race,
I go "boom" in a minefield!
Copy !req
358. Go beyond!
Copy !req
359. Plus Ultra!
Copy !req
