Did you see that? All Might is so cool!
He saves everyone who's in trouble and has a smile on his face.
Even when he's cornered,
he always ends up winning in the end!
A super cool hero.
Can I be like that too?
You got that power from All Might, right?
You and I both admire All Might.
Yeah, that's right.
Before I knew it, someone that I considered as just a pebble
has been acknowledged by the person I admire.
What is it about you that made All Might make such a decision?
Let me find out.
If your admiration toward him was correct,
then does that mean my admiration was wrong?
Of course, it's not wrong!
No one ever said that your admiration toward him was wrong!
Are you okay?
Stop worrying about me!
Fight! What's wrong with you?
Why?
Why am I chasing the person who was always behind me?
A damn small fry like you became strong
and got acknowledged by All Might. You've become stronger,
but why... why am I...
Why am I...
Why am I the one who ended All Might?
No matter how many times I beat you up, you stuck close to me.
You had nothing.
But you dared to look down on me!
Because I had nothing,
your incredible talent
was just as vivid as all of your flaws.
You, who had so many things I lacked,
were someone amazing who was closer to me than All Might!
I thought you were amazing.
That's why I was always...
That's why I was always chasing after you!
After being a hero for a long time, I've realized
that being like Young Bakugo, who insists on victory,
and being like Young Midoriya, who wants to help those in trouble...
A hero cannot carry out
his own sense of justice if either of those factors are missing.
Now that the two of you honestly expressed your feelings,
I'm sure you both understand. If you can both acknowledge each other
and help improve each other,
you can win by saving people, you can save people by winning.
You can both become incredible heroes.
ORIGINAL STORY BY KOHEI HORIKOSHI
When I'm happy, I smile.
Just like how you people kiss the ones you like,
I sip the blood of the person I like.
I love people who are
beaten to a pulp and smell of blood.
That's why I always cut them up in the end.
How cute. So pretty.
Stop smiling like that!
How creepy. She's not normal.
Why can't you be normal?
Please live a normal life!
I couldn't understand...
ever since the first time I met her.
She's a villain.
I never thought
we could ever understand each other.
Ochaco, you're lovely too.
You smell like me.
You have someone you like, don't you?
And you want to be like that person, don't you?
What's with this person?
Of course, you want to be like the person you like.
That's only natural.
You even wear the same thing as the person you like, right?
But soon, that's no longer enough.
You end up wanting to become that person, right?
You can't help feeling that way.
Hey, Ochaco, this is fun, huh?
Talking about the people we like is fun, huh?
But...
when I met her again...
What do you want to do with me?
Are you going to kill me like you did Jin?
Will I get killed?
What do you want to do with me, Ochaco?
You showed up here just to ask me something so stupid?
"Something so stupid"?
You took that old lady's blood for something this stupid?
You killed her for something so stupid?
"Something so stupid"?
I...
Right now, I want to save as many people as possible!
Himiko Toga, if you're going to get in my way,
I will arrest you right now!
Ochaco.
When I think of the person that I love,
it makes me want to become that person.
I want all of their blood so much that it makes my heart skip a beat.
That's how I am.
I can't stop myself.
But everyone's not like me,
so it's difficult to live like this.
The other day, someone really terrible said that my "normal" was pitiful
and tried to kill me.
That's why, Ochaco, I used your blood and Quirk
to drop her from high above in the air.
The blood of the person I like enables me to use their Quirk too!
That moment filled me with happiness.
Toga!
I don't feel happy by dropping people.
What is it that you want to say to me?
This...
You dropped this, Ochaco.
That's...
Is it precious?
Yeah, it is!
Jin was a precious older brother to me too.
We're the same, Ochaco.
Ochaco, the person you like is Izuku, isn't it?
I figured it was him.
This belongs to Izuku, right?
We're the same, aren't we?
I can't waste any more time on her.
She'll dodge all of my direct attacks. In that case...
Zero Satellites!
It's from when she fell earlier...
That's...
That's something I'm going to put away!
Yes... I tried to hold back for a long time.
When I was little, I was told to stop,
but I couldn't stop!
When I try to stop it, it just gets worse!
Himiko Toga!
If you want to live as you please and threaten others,
then you have to take responsibility for it!
You're right.
The tears
that Himiko Toga shed at that moment
is something I can't forget.
Why did she cry?
Why does she rob people of their happiness?
I don't understand. Because I don't understand,
I want to...
get to know her better.
OCHACO URARAKA
SHOTO TODOROKI
Now that I think about it,
during the Forest Training Camp,
when he met me as Dabi from the League of Villains,
my big brother Toya was...
How sad, Shoto Todoroki.
He was sending me a sign.
Dad took down a Nomu in Kyushu called High End.
Prominence Burn!
And the person who appeared in front of Dad was...
Hey, hold on a second.
A lot of unexpected things happened.
I guess in the meantime,
I should start by saying nice to meet you, Endeavor.
Dabi of the League of Villains.
Come on, give me a break.
I just came to retrieve that Nomu.
There's no way I can win
against the top two heroes who are wounded and exhausted!
I came after seeing the news.
You're part of the League, huh? I'll kick you!
Damn it, I was just starting to have fun.
Ujiko.
Later, Number One.
There'll be another chance for us to talk.
Until then, keep doing your best.
Don't you dare die, Enji Todoroki!
Toya's Blueflame.
It's more powerful than Dad's. It's a flame powered by hatred.
His power is completely out of my league.
Get up! If you can't even handle something this trivial,
you won't be able to take down a measly villain, much less All Might!
Please stop! He's only five!
He's already five! Get out of the way!
Mom!
Wow, amazing!
Don't look at them, Shoto.
They live in a completely different world from you.
Sometimes, I can't help but hate
seeing Shoto's left side.
I can't raise him anymore. I shouldn't be raising him.
Mom...
Where's Mom?
Huh? Oh...
She hurt you, so I put her in a hospital.
It's your fault.
You did that to Mom!
I picked a fight with you in order to prove a point:
that even without my damn father's Quirk...
No...
By becoming number one without using his Quirk,
I will completely reject him!
I will win by only using Mom's power.
I won't fight using his power.
I won't...
use Dad's power...
It's your power!
But you want to be a hero, right?
It's okay to be one.
Don't let anything hold you back.
It's okay for you to become
whoever you want to be.
I want to become a hero too!
I'm where I am right now thanks to Midoriya and Class A.
But Toya is...
How can big brother Toya's flame of hatred be...
Toya, you can surpass All Might.
You possess flames that are more powerful than mine.
No! Why don't you understand?
Why can't you understand even after sustaining all those burns?
How am I supposed to understand?
I'm your child.
-Toya, you have to cool down. -You started this flame, Dad!
This flame won't die down.
I can't pretend like it never happened.
Look at me,
Endeavor.
Look! Look at me!
Don't... cry...
Dad...
I can't put it out! I can't put the flames out!
I'll burn it all down.
I'll engulf everything in flames until there's
not even a speck of dust left.
Oh, I see all of you now.
All of you look so tiny from up here. Oh?
Shoto, you're here too, huh? Nice.
Dabi!
Oh, stop that.
Don't call me by that name.
I have a great name after all. It's Toya.
Although my face is all messed up now,
I thought my own family would at least recognize me.
Oh, boy.
This is becoming really fun!
How can I make you suffer?
How can I ruin your life?
I've been thinking long and hard about it ever since that day.
I bet you don't know that I was
crying and clinging onto Natsu every day because I didn't know why I even existed.
At first,
I thought of killing you when you succeeded in grooming Shoto.
But you unexpectedly became the number one hero,
and that made me...
want to make you happy.
I was so scared you might die in Kyushu.
I even used Starservant and Ending
and sent them to you.
I bet the title of the number one hero was a heavy burden to bear.
The praise and admiration from society must have felt refreshing.
The time you spent with your kids must've reminded you of the family bond!
You thought everything would be good if you faced the future, right?
It seems like you're clueless, so I'll let you in on a secret!
You can't get rid of the past.
This is the meaning of "You reap what you sow"!
Go to Hell with me, Enji Todoroki.
Dance with me in Hell.
Toya died.
Lying like that is unforgivable.
I'm alive.
That's the unforgivable truth, Father.
Thanks for staying alive and well until today,
Endeavor!
I searched for you.
Dad! He's coming! Dad!
I believed that you were alive...
Protect Midoriya and the others. I'll fight him with the rest!
Please! Go! Save them!
Hey! Deal with everything else later!
Flashfire Fist.
Prominence.
I was responsible for Toya's death.
I couldn't turn back anymore.
All I could do was devote myself to Shoto.
It was horrible watching you deteriorate.
I started seeing resemblances of you in the children.
Although I knew it was all falling apart,
I was too scared to do anything.
All I could do was keep up our appearances.
You started all of this.
You caused this problem.
But if I had knocked some sense into you, to make you face Toya,
then Dabi wouldn't exist,
and I could've treated Shoto to soba noodles.
You're not the only one responsible for this.
No matter how broken your heart may be, we will make you stand.
You have no choice but to fight Dabi.
Are you really...
Rei?
The boy who is suffering so much more than we are
and who has every right to hate me
chose to call me "Mom" again.
He made friends at UA High School
and brought our family together.
Shoto became our family's hero.
I talked to Mom before coming here.
I thought you couldn't fight anymore,
so I thought I would have to be the one to do it.
But it seems like I'm wrong.
Once you're done crying, stand up.
Let's all go and stop Toya.
Sh... Shoto...
There's no need to forgive me.
I won't ask for your forgiveness. I want to make amends.
Dad...
Young Todoroki.
All Might.
You're really sure about this?
Yes. In fact, it's what I've been wanting.
Because if I run away,
I'll stray off track from my ultimate goal.
I see. Okay then.
All Might.
What is it?
Please help
to convince my dad.
Yeah... that'll be difficult to do.
Preview of the next episode.
I will destroy everything.
The source of anger
that burns furiously inside of me.
Everything began at that house.
Small piece of hatred that piled on little by little.
