02x15 - (D) Midoriya and Shigaraki

[bunniefuu]

Oh, I get it.

Up until now, I've just been

summoning One For All.

I shouldn't be

flipping the switch off!

I just have to leave

the power on the whole time.

Imagining the energy

that used to be focused

in one place spreading

throughout my entire body!

Wanna give it a try?

[IZUKU]

Yes! Let's do this!

[GRAN TORINO]

That's it!

Keep One For All flowing

throughout your entire body.

If you can move around

while maintaining this...

...then you'll be on a

completely different level

than you were at

the sports festival.

[grunting]

[GRAN TORINO] So, kid,

think you can handle it?

[GRAN TORINO]

We'll begin with three minutes.

Okay. For what?

That's the amount of

time you have to try

to hit me with a smash.

[IZUKU grunts]

[IZUKU]

Crap, he's fast.

[GRAN TORINO]

Pathetic.

If you can't even hold

your own against an old man,

how will you protect

those who're in need?

[IZUKU grunts]

[GRAN TORINO] Someone praised

by the Symbol of Peace

himself should be able to

complete this challenge easily.

No sweat.

[IZUKU growls]

One For Al--

[IZUKU]

I need some time to get it

going through my body again.

A single hit from him

doesn't pack much power,

but he's too fast for me

to follow with my eyes!

Come on. I just

need a few seconds.

There!

[GRAN TORINO] Don't be stupid.

I can still see you.

If you're trying to

buy time... It won't work.

[IZUKU]

Now's my chance!

[GRAN TORINO] So you were

just trying to keep me off you

for a minute. Now that

was a good idea.

[IZUKU]

One For All. Full Cowling!

Almost.

[IZUKU]

From behind!

[GRAN TORINO]

You already tried to counter

like this once before.

Remember, kid?

[GRAN TORINO grunts]

Smash!

[IZUKU]

He dodged that, too?

[GRAN TORINO]

Your time's up.

[IZUKU] Oh, man. It's hard

to keep it going like that.

I guess I still have

a lot of work to do.

[GRAN TORINO]

Nice work.

You managed to attack me

while I had my guard down

thanks to your analysis.

You must spend a lot of time

thinking about strategy

and how to fight.

You've already grown

since yesterday,

and this was just our first go

at using One For All this way.

[GRAN TORINO] It's been a

long time since I've had to

seriously dodge an attack.

This kid might turn out

to be a real monster.

[GRAN TORINO]

All right, no time to rest.

Let's keep training.

Yeah! Please! What's next, sir?

[GRAN TORINO]

Something very important.

We haven't had any

breakfast this morning.

[IZUKU]

Huh? O-Oh, you're right!

So, why don't you go and

heat up those pastries again.

[GRAN TORINO]

They're all ruined!

[IZUKU] Don't worry,

I'll go buy some more!

[IZUKU] I've still got

a long road ahead,

but I can see where I'm going!

One For All Full Cowling.

That's the next step to

making this Quirk my own!

[OCHACO, SIDEKICKS]

Right! Left! Right! Left!

[GUNHEAD] Don't just

go through the motions.

Make sure you're focusing

on each individual punch.

Remember, the most

important thing

is your basic physical strength.

[SIDEKICKS]

Yes, sir!

[OCHACO]

Look at how cute that pose is!

This is lukewarm.

Can't you two dense idiots

even make a decent cup of tea?

We wanna impress clients

who visit our agency.

Is this the kinda crap

you would serve them, too?

[KIRISHIMA, TETSUTETSU]

Sorry, Mr. Fourth Kind, sir!

[FOURTH KIND]

Jeez.

Those powers of yours sure

make it satisfying to hit you.

Right!

Thank you, sir!

[BEST JEANIST] To be a good pro,

your presence must calm

those in danger and give

them peace of mind.

You must be capable, of course,

but there are other

things to consider.

Your physical appearance, speech

and actions must

all be elegant.

You must give off

the aura of a hero.

Do you understand?

[SIDEKICKS] Another perfect

style, Best Jeanist!

[KATSUKI] Dammit I came

to the wrong hero agency.

[YAOYOROZU] After this

photoshoot, she's scheduled

to be a guest on a radio show,

and then she has a quick

magazine interview.

I feel like we're her

entourage, not her interns.

This is part of what

it takes to be a hero.

It's unavoidable given

the age we live in.

And I'm sure there's

some important lesson

we're missing here.

[YAOYOROZU]

Right? Maybe?

[KENDO]

Poor girl's deep in denial.

[TSUKAUCHI] I'm sorry

to show up unexpectedly.

Hope you don't mind.

Please, it's always a pleasure

to see you, Tsukauchi.

So, how's the investigation?

Well, there were

a number of villains

who att*cked the USJ.

But we're puzzled by one.

The one you fought

who they called "Nomu."

[ALL MIGHT]

Ah, that strong bird guy.

[TSUKAUCHI]

We went ahead and ran some tests

on Nomu's DNA.

And what exactly did you find?

[TSUKAUCHI]

First: We're not asking you

to help us with the case.

Technically, this is a leak.

I just felt I owed it

to you to let you know.

It could lead us

to the one in charge.

[ALL MIGHT gasps]

[TSUKAUCHI] After several

attempts at interrogation,

we realized that

Nomu can't speak.

He shows no reaction

to anything.

It's as though

he literally can't

think for himself.

No matter what's

going on around him.

[TSUKAUCHI]

As for his identity:

We discovered that he

used to be a low-level thug

with a record of

as*ault and extortion.

Why do you think this'll lead us

to the mastermind

behind the League?

Here's where it

gets interesting.

Our reports show that he's

been altered drastically.

When we analyzed his genetic

makeup, we discovered

four different people's DNA.

Someone combined people's DNA

to make this guy. So is

he even human anymore?

[TSUKAUCHI] The transformation

is a result of dr*gs

and other unknown methods.

To oversimplify a bit, he's

been modified so that his body

is able to hold

multiple Quirks at once.

His brain's apparent

lack of processing power

probably comes from

the burden that causes.

But we're more

concerned about his DNA.

He shouldn't have

more than one power.

Even if new DNA's introduced,

that shouldn't give a

person multiple powers.

Not unless it's completely

integrated into someone's body.

Not all Quirks work

like One For All.

But maybe...

...there's someone out

there with the power

to pass different Quirks

on to other people.

[gasps]

[ALL MIGHT]

It can't be!

Given the evidence,

I think it's a

reasonable conclusion.

S'why I came.

I had to let you

know immediately.

[ALL MIGHT]

No. It's not possible.

Don't tell me he's back again.

[STAIN] So you want me

to be a part of your

crumbling little league.

But you won't accomplish

anything if you don't

have conviction and desire.

Without those, you'll always be

an aimless weakling.

Achieving nothing.

That's how you got here.

[SHIGARAKI breathes heavily]

[SHIGARAKI]

Hey, now.

You're being a little

rough, aren't you?

Kurogiri, take this guy back.

[KUROGIRI]

I'm sorry. I can't move.

It must be the

Hero k*ller's Quirk at work.

[STAIN] The word "hero" has lost

all meaning in this society.

The world is overrun by

fakes and criminals like you

who chase petty dreams.

They must all be purged.

[SHIGARAKI]

What do you think you're doing?

If you touch this palm...

[SHIGARAKI]

...I'll k*ll you.

[STAIN grunts]

[SHIGARAKI] You sure

talk a lot, "Hero k*ller."

Conviction?

Maybe I don't have anything

as loaded as that.

If I had to choose

a desire, though...

Yeah, it'd be k*lling All Might.

If this world wants to

worship trash like him,

I'll destroy their

beloved symbol of peace,

and then crush them

while they're in shock.

[STAIN grunts]

[SHIGARAKI] The last of my

injuries was finally about to

finish healing, and now this.

You should learn not

to play with knives.

We don't have a healer

in our party, you know.

[STAIN]

I see your nature.

[SHIGARAKI gasps]

It seems our goals

fundamentally oppose each other.

However, this wasn't in vain.

We agree that we need

to destroy the present.

[SHIGARAKI] I'm over this.

Leave, drop dead.

I'm the kind of person

you hate most, right?

[STAIN]

I was testing your motives.

People always show

their true colors

when on the verge of death.

It's abnormal,

but there is desire,

a warped sprout of

conviction, inside of you.

How will it bloom

in the end, I wonder.

Maybe I'll let you grow.

If you don't turn out well,

I'll take care of you later.

[SHIGARAKI] You think <i>you</i>

could get rid of <i>me</i> ?

[KUROGIRI]

I'm free.

[SHIGARAKI]

Kurogiri.

Someone as crazy as this would

be nothing but a problem

for the League of Villains.

[KUROGIRI]

Please reconsider.

This man will be a great

asset if he joins us.

I'd say this was a success.

My business here is done.

Now, you will return me to Hosu.

There are still

several false heroes

I must attend to there.

[sighs] Well, the nice thing

about having the whole city

on alert is that no villains

will dare come out.

Oh, yeah, sure.

[TENYA]

Hero k*ller Stain.

It was obvious once I

looked at your crimes.

In the seven places

that you've appeared so far,

you've always injured

at least four pro heroes.

Maybe there's a reason

for that, or maybe I'm just

reading into things,

but it looks like a pattern.

And Tensei is the only person

you've att*cked in Hosu.

[INGENIUM]

I'm so sorry--

I failed you.

[TENYA] That means...

it's very likely that you'll

appear in this city again.

[TENYA] Good. I'll dispose

of you with my own hands.

[IZUKU grunts]

[IZUKU] Gotta keep the five

percent going and attack!

[grunts]

[sighs] We should

switch up the training.

If you get too used to fighting

against my distinct tactics,

you might develop

some weird habits.

What habits? I'm just trying

to keep up with you right now!

Please, let me fight more!

[GRAN TORINO]

No, we're done here.

Change into your costume, boy.

We're moving onto Phase .

Huh?

[GRAN TORINO]

Hope you're ready.

We're going out to

fight some villains.

Huh?! What, just like that?

If you only fight against me,

you'll be in trouble

when you come across someone

who's the complete opposite.

The key is to let

you get experience

with different types of

villains and situations.

This is an

internship, after all.

You really shouldn't

be that surprised by this.

I get what you're saying,

and I totally agree.

But I still think I need

more time to prepare myself.

From what I heard,

you've already been

in combat with

some real villains.

You'll be just fine. We aren't

gonna go after anyone that big.

[GRAN TORINO] And it won't do us

any good hangin' around here.

Because of the small

population in this area,

the crime rate is pretty low.

That's why there are

so many hero agencies

in urban areas, there's

a lot more crime there.

The higher the

population density,

the more trouble you'll find.

Now, in Shibuya,

we'll have plenty

of small fights to

break up, I guarantee.

Wait, you mean we're

going to Shibuya in Tokyo?

I'm, uh, not so sure my

hero costume is hip enough.

That costume of yours tells

everyone you're a hero.

You should be happy

to get to display it

in such a bright spotlight.

Uh-- Hold on.

Are we gonna be taking the

b*llet train toward Shinjuku?

[GRAN TORINO]

Yup.

[IZUKU]

We'll pass Hosu City.

I wonder how Iida's doing there.

I'll try to message him later.

We'll patrol Kyoto today, too.

Sorry this is so monotonous.

[TENYA]

No. It's better this way.

[MANUAL]

Hey.

[TENYA]

Hm?

[MANUAL]

This is kinda hard to ask,

but you're after the

Hero k*ller, aren't you?

[TENYA gasps]

How did you...?

I couldn't think of

any other reason why

you'd come to my agency.

Uh! I mean--

Don't get me wrong,

I'm really glad you did,

but...

You shouldn't be

pursuing personal grudges.

We heroes don't

have the authority

to arrest people or punish them.

The only reason we're

allowed to use our Quirks

is because of the

regulations put on them.

That's why, no matter how noble

the reason may be,

a hero must not

use their Quirk for themselves.

If a pro used their power

for their own selfish desires,

it would be a

very serious crime.

I'm not saying that

the Hero k*ller

isn't incredibly

guilty or anything!

You just seem like the

earnest type, you know?

I'd hate for you

to focus on one goal

and ignore everything else.

[TENYA]

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Oh, it's fine, as long as

you get what I'm sayin'.

So, we good?

[TENYA]

No.

What am I supposed to do

with this burning hatred

if I can't act?

[SHIGARAKI]

Huh.

Hosu City looks nicer

than I expected.

So, what are you gonna do?

I will reform it.

In order to do so,

blood must spill.

[KUROGIRI]

You have a clear goal.

Your dedication is admirable.

[STAIN] Ah... Finally,

someone who understands.

[SHIGARAKI] I get the feeling

you enjoy picking on me.

[STAIN] "Hero" is a

title for those who've

accomplished great deeds! This

city is full of false champions.

All they care about

is money and fame.

Until this world

realizes its mistakes,

I will continue my work.

[SHIGARAKI] He talks all

high and mighty and stuff,

but he's wasting his time

focusing on a small stage.

He's so noble I could cry.

[KUROGIRI]

You shouldn't spurn his methods.

The reality is, in all the

cities where Stain has appeared,

the crime rates have fallen.

Perhaps because heroes

are more conscientious,

or perhaps out of fear.

Regardless, he does

bring change.

[SHIGARAKI]

Oh, isn't that just wonderful.

Heroes are working harder

thanks to all those murders.

I guess you could say

our "Hero k*ller"

is also a "Hero Breeder."

This is getting boring.

It won't work.

We just can't agree

on a basic level.

And he annoys me.

Kurogiri, bring out the Nomus.

[SHIGARAKI] You think you can

get away with stabbing me?

When I get tired

of you, I'll k*ll you.

Whenever I feel like it.

Just like that, Stain.

[SHIGARAKI] But let's

make it more interesting.

How about I crush your honor

and your pride first?

What do you say,

big bad Hero k*ller?

So, um...

This train isn't gonna get

there until pretty late.

Are you sure that's okay?

That's why I picked it.

There'll be more skirmishes

then, so it'll be much more fun!

Maybe we just have

different ideas

about what "fun" is.

You kids these days.

You're constantly buried

in your cell phones.

[IZUKU] He read the

message but didn't reply.

I don't think Iida has ever

waited more than three minutes

to respond to something before.

We're almost at Hosu station.

Hey, if you ever wanna

talk or anything,

just let us know.

We're friends, right?

Yes.

[PASSENGER A]

Hey, did you see that?

[gasps]

[PASSENGER A]

A building exploded.

[gasps] Where?

What's the ruckus?

Some kind of fire?

[ANNOUNCEMENT A] Passengers,

please hold onto your seats.

[GRAN TORINO, IZUKU yelp]

[PASSENGERS screaming]

What the hell--

Nomu!

I want you to stay

back, you hear me?

[IZUKU]

Hey, wait!

[GRAN TORINO grunts]

[GRAN TORINO grunts]

[IZUKU]

Gran Torino!

[grunts]

[IZUKU]

No way...

What the heck's going on here?

[CROWD screaming]

[GIANT NOMU groaning]

[SHIGARAKI laughing]

Now this is a good game.

[MANUAL] What did you say?

Villains appeared?

Don't worry. I can

head there right now.

Stay with me. We're running.

[TENYA] Couldn't be...

This is different.

That m*rder*r wouldn't

be so flashy.

[TENYA gasps]

[STAIN] That idiot's making

a move. And he's so noisy.

I'll have to dispose

of him later.

At the moment,

I have important

work to finish here.

[NATIVE]

My body...

I-I can't move.

You bastard.

I-I'll k*ll you!

If you call yourself a hero,

you should choose your

last words with care.

[STAIN gasps]

[TENYA grunts]

[TENYA grunts]

A child wearing

a suit. Who are you?

[STAIN]

Run, run away from here.

This is not a

place for children.

[TENYA] You're carrying

blades all over your body

and you're wearing

a blood-red scarf.

You must be the

Hero k*ller Stain!

It's you, right?

I've been looking for you,

but I didn't think

I'd find you so soon.

I am--

[STAIN] Your eyes are

searing with vengeance.

Be careful what you say next.

If need be, even someone

your age can be my target.

[TENYA] Are you saying that

I'm not even a threat to you?

You listen to me, criminal.

[TENYA] I am the brother

of an incredible hero

who you att*cked.

[TENYA]

He's the best older brother

that anyone could hope for.

[TENYA]

I have come to stop you

because he can't anymore.

[INGENIUM]

I want you to take the name.

For me, Tenya.

You're going to remember my

name for as long as you live.

I am Ingenium,

and I will defeat you.

That, I promise!

[STAIN]

Then, so be it.

Die.

[IZUKU]

Here's the preview!

Hosu City is under attack

by Nomu-like villains.

[TENYA] I've found you,

Hero k*ller Stain!

I am the younger brother

of a hero you att*cked!

[IZUKU] So that's why you

chose this internship.

[TENYA] My older brother

was a valiant hero.

I won't forgive you.

I'll--I'll k*ll you!

[IZUKU]

Next time:

"Hero k*ller: Stain

vs UA Students."

[TENYA] I am Ingenium,

and I will defeat you.

That, I promise!

[IZUKU]

It's time to go beyond!

Plus Ultra!
