08x05 - (Dub) History's Greatest Villain"

[bunniefuu]

SEVERAL DAYS PRIOR TO THE w*r

Shigaraki will be warped
to the coffin in the sky.

We have to keep him there.

TEAM STOP TOMURA SHIGARAKI

If he gets to the ground,
our plan will unravel.

Relying on puns
even at a time like this.

Is it because we'd be at
a big disadvantage

in a ground fight
like they were at Jaku?

I heard how bad that was.

No.
This is a matter of intent.

Ask yourself,
what are we protecting?

We are going to evacuate
the whole area, right?

So are we protecting
the buildings?

At this point
in the fight,

we can't worry
out architecture.

After all, we picked
Kamino Ward as the site

of Di's last stand.

Our priority is saving lives,
but also the future.

Cut to the chase, man!

The issue is Shigaraki's
split personality.

It would actually be better
for the All For One persona

to dominate.

He wants to rule,
and a ruler needs sjects.

But Shigaraki
doesn't give a damn.

He won't care out
collateral damage.

Exactly.

Shigaraki's power and hatred
have been woven together.

There's a chance his
thirst for destruction

may be directed
at the Earth itself.

We must consider
what happens after this w*r.

Victory is meaningless
if there's no foundation

to ruild society upon.

We know what we must protect.

[theme music]

SHIKETSU HIGH SCHOOL
EMERGENCY EVACUATION ZONE

No, our-- our home!

That farm has been
in my family for generations.

[sobbing]

Izuku.

[suspenseful music]

[SHIGARAKI] I directed my decay
underground below the city.

In the blink of an eye, part
of Shizuoka is washed away.

Japan is out 378,000
square kilometers total.

If I wanted, I could sink
the whole country

beneath the sea in a week.

When I say I want to destroy
everything, that's what I mean.

I'll leave this world
with no hope of recovery.

[tense music]

If I use Gearshift,
Fa Jin, and Danger Sense

at the same time,

I can finally go
on the offensive.

I need a way
to stop him though.

My master is dead.

Just because I didn't
annihilate that brat, huh?

You know, in a way, I guess
I should be grateful to him.

He made me stronger.

Watch!

Now I have no problem
adapting to your speed.

Well, you were fast enough
to mutilate my fingers.

Although--

Hey, kid, it's Shinomori.

His Danger Sense.

I wonder, will you last long?

HISTORY'S GREATEST VILLAIN

OUT A DOZEN SECONDS AGO

[screaming]

No need to get emotional.

This fight has been
in our successors' hands

from the beginning.

We'll defeat Tomura Shigaraki.

At this time,
that's our reason for existing.

Yeah, but things
keep getting worse!

Whenever he's attacked,
he just regenerates.

We've gotta find a way
to break through his defenses!

[tense music]

Shinomori!

Look after the Ninth.

Hey, kid, it's Shinomori.

His Danger Sense
has been stolen.

The power that's
been passed from hero to hero

that filled my master
with so much anguish.

I'm not obsessed with it
like he was.

But I'll take it
if it hurts you.

Shinomori's chair!

How?

It happened so fast!

He was le to force
his way inside.

This place is protected
by our combined will.

But he smashed through anyway.

[SHIGARAKI] Blackwhip

and Fa Jin
plus Gearshift,

Blackchain!

Wow, now I get how you've
been so hard to catch.

He's using Danger Sense
against me.

You're my biggest obstacle.

I'll destroy you first.

[tense music]

Do you still believe you're
fighting a human being,

you idiot?

There's no scared little kid
crying inside me.

Shouldn't you stop lying
to yourself, Midoriya?

Take a good look at me.

I am something different!

If I wrap Blackwhip around
my body multiple times

and focus on defense,
I can avoid fatal wounds.

My mask.

All Might brought this
back for me.

You put it on so you could
breathe in those waves.

But you're not
in the water anymore.

Look where that
maniac's taken you.

Mount Fuji, it's so close.

Gearshift could expire
at any moment.

You may have lost a Quirk,
but that didn't affect

your physical boost.

Your strength is stockpiled
in One For All,

not the individual factors.

You're just going
to have to endure.

He's been weakened.

Isn't he better off
running away while he can?

What?

Earlier, we were spared
because we had Danger Sense.

If he's touched again,
even for an instant,

I dot that any of us
will be le to escape.

If we get taken, it's all over!

[SHIGARAKI]
I see you, ghost.

Were you discussing
how you might get away?

In the past,
running off allowed you

time to get stronger.

It's best if
I deal with you here.

I'll give you nowhere to hide.

When I'm done, there will be
nothing but a horizon.

Spinner was looking
forward to seeing that.

Hey, I know what
I'll sink next,

Mount Fuji.

[suspenseful music]

Kid, watch out.

He brought you here on purpose.

If Decay reaches
the mountain, it'll erupt.

Yoichi, this guy is no
successor of All For One.

He's the embodiment
of destruction and ruin.

[SHIGARAKI] Everything
is connected somehow.

And I know that deep
inside of your heart--

I have no idea what Toga
knows out being human.

Do you still believe you're
fighting a human being,

you idiot?

[tense music]

[MIDORIYA]
You are still...

a person.

[suspenseful music]

Earlier,
while I was immobilized

and focusing on not dying,

I forced my muscles to flex
using Blackwhip.

I stored up as much
power as possible

so I can use Fa Jin
to unleash a blast of air.

Delaware Smash!

[upbeat music]

What a move, Midoriya!

Hah, he blew away enough
terrain to interrupt Decay.

Without material for my Quirk
to advance through,

its range and destructive
power are limited.

Still, that won't stop me.

I'll touch everything
I can get my hands on.

This dust isn't scattering.

[suspenseful music]

Oh, it's you.

I applied Gearshift's
low gear to Smokescreen,

creating a cloud.

Now to deploy Blackwhip
while his vision's obscured.

Danger Sense will be
set off constantly,

giving me an opening.

I learned the pitfalls
of relying on Danger Sense

when I was fighting
Lady Nagant.

You'd go this far
just to store up power?

But Ninth,
don't forget,

Shigaraki can use Search
to locate you.

[tense music]

I'm not blind to your location
or your weaknesses.

You can't even
catch your breath.

How sad.

Gearshift has worn off.

Not good!

Those charged up attacks
are handy.

But you can't keep
launching them forever.

You're reinforcing your tendons
and muscles from within, yes?

I can see proof of that
bleeding through your skin.

A direct hit might have
caused some real damage,

even for someone at my level.

Must be real difficult having
so much to protect, Midoriya.

It might not be easy,
but I'm not giving up on you

or that crying boy!

People try to interpret
the world

based on their limited
perceptions of it.

They tell themselves stories
to try to make sense

of what they can't understand.

You're desperate to believe
that the narrative

you've created for me
is the truth.

But you're wrong.

Just like I can see
the ghosts inside of you,

you're le to use
One For All to peek inside me.

That's how you were le
to find me,

despite your clever
smokescreen.

Well, look closer.

I buried that whining boy
a long time ago.

He learned everything he could
out this cruel world

and evolved into me.

Now that he's gone, I can do
whatever the hell I want to!

I wanna save that little kid.

Give it up.

There are some people who
are beyond saving, like him.

This monster is
an insurmountle challenge

to your hero philosophy.

You won't be le to fix him.

You have to strike hard
enough to obliterate him.

Grin and bear it, Izuku.

You must find the strength to.

[MIDORIYA] No.

If he's a lost cause,
why does he hold on

to such a devastating past?

He's just pushed it down,
put a lid on it.

He said heroes pretend
we don't see those

we can't protect

and ignore the pain
that we cause people.

So I'm gonna to keep
pounding away at that lid

until I've destroyed it!

This is why I had dots.

Now we're supposed to leave
everything up to this boy

who wants to save our enemy?

It's surd.

I thought it was
an arrogant idea and naive,

but I've watched
from the sidelines

long enough to understand
what drives this boy.

The belief that even
loathsome creatures

are those who are born
without Quirks.

Deep down, they have a heart
just like everybody else.

I want that to be true.

[calm music]

There's another way
that may be worth a shot.

Do exactly what
I tell you to, Ninth.

I'm out to take a heck
of a gamble on you.

You must let go of One For All.

[gasps]

[MALE VOICE] Second.

[STAR AND STRIPE] Master.

[calm music]

Master,
there's a sad child in there.

[MALE VOICE]
All Might, All Might,

stay conscious
if you want to live.

Without comms, we don't know
what's happening.

But chances are Midoriya is
still out there fighting.

[ALL MIGHT] A dream?

No.

The sensation,
it's the same as back then.

One For All is supposed
to be out of my reach.

But I can feel it call.

Its will is reaching out to me.

That power we cultivated is--

is coming apart.

What just happened?

Why did that woman
cross my mind?

I thought I'd completely
atomized her.

[STAR AND STRIPE]
As long as people stand up

to help one another, there
will be someone who embodies

the spirit of heroism.

She's dead but still
intent on haunting me.

Young man,
you too can become a hero.

What are you talking out?

Why would I ever let go
of One For All?

That's-- that's insane.

Calm your mind,
or he'll catch on.

You've seen that dark,
leaden ball inside Shigaraki.

That ball is an amalgamation
of the anger,

discontent, and trauma
he's experienced in his life.

Those pieces have
been forged together

into one horrible mass.

You could say
it's his self-determination,

his spirit hardened by hatred.

But Yagi noticed a crack.

It's probly a scar
left behind from his battle

with Star and Stripe,

a wound to his mind,
not his body.

Even his regeneration
Quirk can't heal it.

OK, what's that got
to do with One For All?

Shigaraki became too strong
when he sorbed All For One.

If we keep trying to fight
him like this, we'll lose.

So we'll attack from within.

Transfer One For All
to Shigaraki,

and smash it into that wound.

We can pry open the weak spot
and strike his mind directly.

Transfer?

Smash?

Hold on!

We need to think
out this carefully.

If we do that,
he'll gain our Quirks.

We'll be at his mercy
like Shinomori is now.

Open your mind
to what I'm saying.

You don't get it.

Use a visual?

Fine.

Here's an easier way
of looking at it.

That childhood friend
of yours,

how does he pass things on
to you?

[SHIGARAKI]
Take this and die!

Pass something with too much
force, and it might break,

or someone might get hurt.

That's what we'll do
with One For All.

Of course, it may not work,
so I'll be the test case.

Shinomori was the only
one taken before,

which means there
must be a way for him

to do a partial transfer.

We're Quirk factors that
were bound to One For All.

Each of us are
a part of it,

and our individual powers
were strengthened

by each user as well.

If you throw me at him
so hard that I shatter,

I'll be le to hurt him
without giving him my power.

Fine, test it!

But we should use Smokescreen.

I'm the least valule
to us right now.

[KUDO] No, I'll go.

But Gearshift is pivotal
to winning this battle.

If this fails,
then Shigaraki can--

Listen, the recoil's the key.

If the Ninth part's
with me,

he'll also be free
of the blowback.

And on the off chance
that Shigaraki does use me,

it will put him in this
same paralyzed state.

Look, Boss,
I have never questioned

your orders in the past,
but this approach

is far too great a risk.

One we have to take.

We lived through
some harsh times,

and we made a lot of callous
decisions over the years

because we had to.

None of that compares to our
current situation though.

And yet, this boy's spirit
refuses to break.

I want to believe that
he's got the right idea.

You put so much time
and energy into helping me.

How did I end up so lucky?

[groans]

Look at this poor boy.

He doesn't covet this power
or fear dying.

Toshinori, no matter
how daunting a task

he's been given,
despite everything

that's happened to him,
to Izuku, One For All is--

Take that
to heart, young man.

This gift, you earned it with
your own valiant efforts.

[NANA] --a treasure
given to him by the hero

he admires most.

What's this corpse
muttering out?

Banjo, stick close
by to the Ninth.

He can't afford
to lose Blackwhip.

Watch over him.

Yes, my hero.

Now it's up to you.

What will it be, kid?

[upbeat music]

I'll do it!

[screams]

I will crush you all!

Well, damn.

[upbeat music]

What a surprise.

I'd never guess
you were a hero.

[theme music]

[MIDORIYA] Here's the preview.

The plan is to transfer
One For All to Shigaraki,

with the hope that we can
strike his mind directly.

It's the only means
of winning we have left.

We'll reach Shigaraki's
memories, his past,

and the depths
of his consciousness.

In doing so, we'll discover
what's driving him.

Next time, wrench it open,
Izuku Midoriya.

The door before you is
heavy, but it must be opened.

Go beyond, Plus Ultra.
