05x22 - (D) Sad Man's Parade
Posted: 03/27/23 10:59
[BUBAIGAWARA grunts]
No, no! Your hands are so cold!
I don't get it! You're
freezing my mind out!
Damn it, who are you?!
Are you me?
You have my face,
but I don't know you.
Do I?
[CHIKAZOKU]
Bubaigawara and Toga.
C! Make sure she can't move.
E, focus on him.
Stop it. Leave those two alone.
[YOTSUBASHI] Sorry, he can't
talk to you right now.
He's taking care of a
couple worthless villains.
His meta power
allows him to create
life-like puppets.
That's why he controls
a slew of Bubaigawaras.
Thanks to my company's
micro-transceivers
and the comm system he created,
he can control them
with exquisite precision.
We know all about
Bubaigawara's mental trauma.
Your client information
is worth its weight in gold.
Is that frustrating for you?
It must be, Broker.
Thanks to you, we'll k*ll
Toga and take Twice.
[GIRAN]
k*ll Toga?
I doubt Bubaigawara will
bounce back from that.
It's bad if I'm not wrapped up.
Please, stop it!
No! Dammit! Put her down! Toga!
That's me. I'm
trying to k*ll her.
Why would I hurt the girl
who wrapped me
in her handkerchief!
That's me! No, it's not!
Right? I'd never do that!
So who is it?
Where is the real me?
Am I a copy?
Have I been lying to
myself this whole time?
I'm gonna tear myself in two!
Am I the original?
Is this really me?
Who am I?
[BUBAIGAWARA]
People are always afraid of me
because they think
my eyes look scary.
No family. I live on my own.
[DETECTIVE A]
I see. That must be hard.
[BUBAIGAWARA] One of the most
critical moments in my life
was when I was .
[DETECTIVE A]
Bad news.
The man you hit with your
motorcycle has a broken arm.
Not my fault he jumped
in front of me.
I was driving at the speed
limit and everything.
Unfortunately, this
will be the start
of your criminal record.
Don't worry. You may
stumble in life,
but you can always pick
yourself back up again.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
Nice idea in theory.
Some people trip and just
keep on falling, though.
[groans]
Fool! Do you have any idea
who you ran over?
An executive with one
of our most valued clients!
I just got off the
phone and guess what?
They said they're
going to rethink
working with us in the future.
Is this how you repay me
for giving you a job
and a roof to sleep under?
You're a curse.
Never show your face
in this office again.
[BUBAIGAWARA] My parents died
when I was in middle school.
Got caught up
in a villain attack.
I wasn't close to any
of my other relatives.
I was alone. All by myself.
But I wanted someone to talk to.
[BUBAIGAWARA] Hey. Did I
make a mistake with you?
If you did, well... So what?
Not your fault you were born
with the crappiest luck.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
I wanted somebody around.
Someone I trusted.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
It was fun.
You know what a person who's
circling the drain really wants?
An easy life.
Least that's how I was.
Which is why I ended up
making so many mistakes.
And I didn't realize
how many wrong turns
I'd made until
I hit rock bottom.
[BUBAIGAWARA] When I stopped
being able to trust myself.
[GIRAN]
What a mess.
Watching a bunch of
yous k*ll other yous
made you go a little nuts.
So, what's with the bag?
Panic attack?
[BUBAIGAWARA] If I'm not
wrapped up, I'll split.
I won't! I'm fine!
Ah. Interesting.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
The doubles I make disappear
after receiving a certain
amount of damage.
Basically, when they get the
equivalent of a broken bone.
You can see why
I'm kind of concerned.
No worries here.
Thanks to the flashy
robberies you committed
with all those clones,
you made it
onto the nation's
most-wanted list.
You know, if you
used your Quirk right,
you could take on
the entire country.
I'm kinda surprised you're so
down and out, given that power.
[BUBAIGAWARA] Any advice
for someone like me?
Find some people
who will trust you.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
Who?
Like-minded folk.
There's been a group
on the move lately.
And I'm positive they'd
want a guy like you
to join their ranks.
Trust me on this.
There are plenty
of people in this world
who think the same way as you.
[groaning] Toga, no!
F and G. Punch him.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
Ouch! So weak! Ow!
[CHIKAZOKU]
Grab his arms.
[CHIKAZOKU]
Break them.
[screams]
Do what I say and
this stops, got it?
Resistance is pointless.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
It hurts. Damn it.
[CHIKAZOKU] Great. Toga's
regaining consciousness.
I need to increase
their strength.
[BUBAIGAWARA] The pain. My arms.
It hurts. It's bad.
But even though it hurts,
I'm not disappearing!
[laughs]
[BUBAIGAWARA] I've been careful
to avoid any real injuries.
Because I was afraid
I would disappear!
It's been like this for so long.
No matter what. I keep
making the wrong choices!
I could've figured
this out right away
if I'd just tried
to hurt myself,
but I kept falling and failing.
Until I met them.
Until I met her.
Toga! I swear I'll save you!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
Outta the way, you fakes.
I would never k*ll a comrade.
[BUBAIGAWARA]
You will fear me.
Liberation Army!
I'll show you the
extent of my Quirk!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
My Quirk is Double.
It lets me make two
things out of one thing.
I can make up to
two copies at a time.
And what I make with
my ability is more fragile
than the real thing.
The second one made
is more fragile
than the first, and I
can't make anything new
until the first one disappears.
It's no good. Sorry, Shigaraki.
I can do it. Not a problem!
I need data and something
to visualize for Double.
I don't have data for this.
I'm afraid I'm not
gonna be helpful
reproducing the yakuza b*llet.
[BUBAIGAWARA] I'm sorry
I was never of much use.
I've been holding you back.
You accepted me,
and I want to repay you.
From the bottom of my heart.
And now I can... I can do this!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
Let's go, Twice!
[BUBAIGAWARAS]
It's time for a m*ssacre!
Hurry! We'll help
Mister Skeptic!
Don't k*ll the Doubler.
Aw, damn it!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
A march of grief!
Sad Man's Parade!
Do your worst.
I'll protect my comrades!
[YOTSUBASHI]
What a surprise.
He's overcome his
psychological trauma.
It's not what you
expected from him,
huh, Mister Skeptic?
A rare miscalculation
and failure.
Failure?
What are you talking
about, Re-Destro?
I can say without hesitation
I've only failed
once in the past.
Understand? Just one time
in my entire life!
So you take it back.
This is all to plan!
I'm just prepping
for my next move.
[elevator dings]
[YOTSUBASHI]
Ah. Yes. Of course, Skeptic.
[GIRAN coughs] So, the kid's
right in the head now?
He must have one
hell of a doctor.
If his shackles are really off,
he can do anything. You'll see.
At the very least,
he can even out
the numbers on the b*ttlefield.
Quality over quantity.
Right, Geten?
Your power may be useful
in the right situation, sure.
But you've almost blown through
all the ice in the area.
[MR. COMPRESS]
If you've got a free hand,
then help me!
Why should I bother
lending you a hand?
[MR. COMPRESS]
Are you so unfeeling?
Plenty of other guys over
there who can help you out.
[TWICE]
Dabi! Mr. Compress!
Backup Twices are here
to the rescue!
[TWICES chattering]
[MR. COMPRESS]
What the hell? But your trauma!
[TWICE]
Love and courage evened me out!
[MR. COMPRESS] I don't
get it, but it sounds like
you're on a hero's journey,
even though you're a villain!
[TWICE] What? Is it weird for
a villain to save his friends?
[TWICES]
Not at all.
[TWICE]
Of course I won't let you die.
[TWICE]
I'm so cool.
[TWICE]
I don't have many friends,
so you're all important to me!
--[TWICE] Wait, am I an idiot?
--[TWICE] You said it.
Not a bad fighter, though.
Yep, check me out,
I'm a natural.
Let's give 'em a good one!
Or a good , !
I'll make more of you guys, too!
We'll be more than a "league"--
we'll have the
population of a city!
Let's go, City of Villains!
[MR. COMPRESS]
Wait, Twice!
If you annihilate the enemy,
we won't have any extra players
to throw against
Gigantomachia later.
--[TWICE] Go easy on them?
--[TWICE] Then Dabi should stop.
He burns lots of stuff.
But the m*ssacre!
How long until
the big guy wakes up?
[MR. COMPRESS]
An hour and five minutes.
[TWICE]
Then I'll stall them!
More importantly,
Toga's in trouble.
Get the location from
me and hurry over!
[TWICES groan]
[TWICES]
Oh, no, mes!
What, is there some kind of
ice factory around here?
Where's all this coming from?
[GETEN]
There's more to my ability
than simple manipulation.
[DABI]
Is that so?
[GETEN]
I can control the temperature
of the molecules, too.
So, if I call out to the water
in the pipes and lower the temp,
it freezes and
becomes my w*apon.
You could have told me
that from the beginning.
Now I'm angry.
[GETEN]
In the future we're aiming for,
the strength of someone's
power will be directly linked
to their place in society.
In other words,
increasing your meta
ability will be essential.
[TWICES]
Mes!
[GETEN] There's no value
to life other than
the amount of
strength you wield.
That's a pretty
depressing worldview.
Now, die.
[GETEN] You're the one who
will perish, blue flame user.
Your body already smells burnt.
Determining your
opponent's meta power
is the most basic of tactics.
Your scorched skin looks like
it's about to fall off.
You won't be able to fight
for long, will you?
Because your flames are
consuming your own body.
[MR. COMPRESS]
A frightening attack.
And he willingly
sacrificed his own allies.
The ice user is trouble.
He's the only one who
stands out from the rest.
He's exactly who we want
to throw at Machia.
[DOCTOR chuckles]
This hardly seems fair.
But if you die here,
All For One will be so sad.
[ALL FOR ONE]
Machia.
[DOCTOR] The master's
successor is doing his best,
but he's awfully tired.
[GIGANTOMACHIA]
The master's successor.
Shigaraki, how you
holding up over there?
[SHIGARAKI] Concerned?
Should we not have come?
Well, if we hadn't
come to this city,
then we would've been
reported and chased
by a bunch of heroes, right?
We would have been
in trouble either way.
Yes, I suppose that's true.
They had me trapped.
Look over there, Spinner.
The tower's close.
[SHIGARAKI]
And it's well guarded.
Where'd all these
people come from?
Whoa, there are so many Twices!
[TWICE]
Yo, Spinner!
A buncha me died in the ice.
I twisted my knee!
Shigaraki!
Well, this is unexpected.
You're an army now.
[TWICES]
Yeah!
[TWICE]
And since I can do this...
[LIBERATION ARMY yelling]
[TWICE] I can help the
team out, right, Boss?
[TWICES groan]
You're incredible, Twice.
Think you have enough
clones to clear a path
to the tower for me?
Someone said their
boss and Giran
are holed up inside there.
I thought that it
might be a bluff, but...
The closer we get,
the more enemies there are.
They're protecting something.
We need to leave enough
pawns to take on Machia,
but I wanna make sure
their big boss is dead.
[TWICE]
Yeah! You got it!
Why don't you go take a nap
while I trim the fat for ya.
We'll take down
the Liberation Army
with a single multiple person!
Hey, me! I'll leave
that tower to you!
Hold on, Giran! I'm coming!
So, Twice is gonna be able
to handle this by himself.
[SHIGARAKI] He does have
a real soft spot for Giran.
The Liberation Army is
playing with people's hearts.
I'll make sure they suffer
until their last breaths.
[HANABATA] You, leader
of the League of Villains!
Up to now, we have allowed
you to pursue your agenda!
The politician!
Forgot about him.
[HANABATA] We believe humans
are not frail beings,
that we all have some
sort of power.
Our revival party
will show how people
use their meta abilities
to defeat evil!
Witness the strength
of flesh and blood!
It's time. Dismantle
our guests of honor.
Crush the League of Villains!
Liberate yourselves, my friends!
Use your righteous power
to bring forth a new era!
Show the world that
everyone is a hero,
and that at the
same time, nobody is!
[TWICES groan]
[TWICE]
I'll leave the rest to you, me.
[SPINNER]
Hanabata. Damn it!
Every time he talks,
the soldiers out here
get more fired up.
What should I do?
Shigaraki is already exhausted.
We can't let him
get more worn out.
[TWICE]
There you are!
You're the jerk who crashed our
big fight and made us come here.
What a crappy move!
Oh. So you made it to the tower?
[TWICE] What's with
the weird hair, Baldy?
No, wait, I'll call
you Forehead.
Sorry, that was rude.
Bubaigawara.
[TWICE]
I can double lots of things,
but it's much faster
to make more of me.
Because I know myself
better than anybody!
Beg for forgiveness
while you pee your
pants, Forehead!
That was quite a large
number of warriors
waiting for you downstairs.
Your meta ability is wonderful,
just like Skeptic said.
Listen up, you guys!
You're just copies
of my real comrades!
So even if you die,
you won't be gone forever!
No worries,
I'll dig beautiful graves
for each of you.
[SHIGARAKI] Don't make a copy
of your leader just to k*ll him.
[TWICE]
Repeat after me!
"We're doubles, so even if
we die, we are not dead!"
That should make you feel
better about this fight.
What is wrong with you?
And who are these guys?
[TWICE] The weirdo there
is the Liberation Army boss.
[MR. COMPRESS]
Uh-- Hey, are you able
to clone yourself now?
[TWICE] Oh, right, I guess
I didn't catch you up
on the situation with my psyche.
I got over my trauma.
[MR. COMPRESS]
Wait, are you a clone, too?
[TWICE] What're you saying?
I'm the realist of the real.
No, I'm the original.
Shut your face!
It doesn't matter,
I'll put my soul on the line
for everyone's sake!
Do you feel the same or what?
[TWICE]
Holy--
See? He was totally
a fake the whole time.
Pretty fragile clone.
Also, I'm fairly certain
you don't understand
what the term "hostage" means.
[MR. COMPRESS]
Did you see what he did?
Don't ask me.
[YOTSUBASHI]
Bubaigawara.
If you make any more
copies, Giran is dead.
He's not a formal member
of your group,
so I don't really want
to k*ll him, but I will.
[SHIGARAKI]
You did good, Twice.
You made sure we outnumber him.
He's just one man.
[MR. COMPRESS]
We've got the advantage!
Get Giran back and we can leave.
[TWICES]
Wait!
[VILLAINS gasp]
[YOTSUBASHI grunts]
[YOTSUBASHI]
Useless fodder.
It's ridiculous to think
that we're even
fighting in the same ring.
[TWICE]
Giran.
--[TWICE] Giran!
--[GIRAN] Ow.
[TWICE gasps]
Your fingers.
They really took
them, didn't they?
Damn it.
And it's your right hand!
That's your smoking hand!
Aw, man. How could
they do such a thing?
I'm sorry!
I'm the one who
should apologize.
He got the info about
you guys from my files.
I'm a failure as a broker.
[TWICE]
Don't you say that!
People who haven't
done anything wrong
should never have to apologize!
You're taking this so seriously.
As long as you have a goal
as an organization,
such excessive emotion
is unnecessary.
Your little League
just can't compete.
[SHIGARAKI] Sounds like
you have a noble dream.
Oh, still alive are you?
A noble dream, I like that.
Heh. Perfect timing.
Let's test your might.
Once there was a young
woman who gave birth
to a child with a meta ability.
This was back when
people still had
strong prejudices against them,
when the world was in chaos,
a place of unending abuse
and unfettered discrimination.
She pleaded with society
on behalf of her
beloved offspring.
After all, he couldn't be
blamed for how he was born.
[YOTSUBASHI] "Please,"
she said, "make this a world
where my child
can live freely!"
But society looked
at her and laughed.
She never spoke
out for him again,
and do you know why
that is, friend?
I'll tell you.
She was k*lled by those
who opposed meta powers.
Yeah, you think I'm stupid?
She came up with
the term "Quirks."
Sorry, I heard you didn't
have any formal education.
Anyway, as heroes and vigilantes
became more popular,
the government
started trying to
reestablish order.
They dug up her appeal while
working on the political reform.
They adopted the term Quirks,
said they were natural.
It changed how people thought!
However! In actuality,
the political measures
that were implemented
suppressed meta abilities
more than ever!
There's no point just changing
what they're called.
What they wanted to squash
was the use of powers.
Some couldn't use their
powers as they wanted,
so it was freedom in name alone.
But you know what
Destro thought?
"This isn't the future
my mother wanted.
Meta abilities or Quirks--
we must use them freely."
His mother?
[YOTSUBASHI] It was an
inconvenient truth for society.
Do you understand why Destro
was wanted for so many crimes?
He sought true freedom
through revolution!
And now... I will
accomplish Destro's dream!
His blood is in my veins.
I am his descendant.
This world will change at
the hands of Re-Destro!
You're just some thugs
with the urge to destroy.
How can you possibly stand
against our glorious dream?
Heads up, Twice.
If you're gonna protect Giran,
you'll need a cushion.
[TWICE]
A cushion?
[SHIGARAKI] I was caught on the
window with that first blast.
A good vantage point.
My eyes met his down below.
He's here. The tower's in reach.
I'd touch it if I were him.
[SHIGARAKI]
The thing about humans.
They're supposed to die
when they fall from up high.
So you must be
the liberation boss.
I didn't get an answer
to my question.
Such a pity.
[IZUKU]
Here's the preview!
The League of Villains has
shifted to counterattacking.
In the middle of
fighting Re-Destro,
leader of the
Meta Liberation Army,
Shigaraki recalls a past
that he'd long forgotten.
What in Tenko Shimura's
tragic upbringing
made him run toward destruction?
Next time, "Tenko
Shimura: Origin."
Remember the feelings
that grew within you.
Where did they come from?
What did they teach you?
Go beyond! Plus Ultra!
No, no! Your hands are so cold!
I don't get it! You're
freezing my mind out!
Damn it, who are you?!
Are you me?
You have my face,
but I don't know you.
Do I?
[CHIKAZOKU]
Bubaigawara and Toga.
C! Make sure she can't move.
E, focus on him.
Stop it. Leave those two alone.
[YOTSUBASHI] Sorry, he can't
talk to you right now.
He's taking care of a
couple worthless villains.
His meta power
allows him to create
life-like puppets.
That's why he controls
a slew of Bubaigawaras.
Thanks to my company's
micro-transceivers
and the comm system he created,

We know all about
Bubaigawara's mental trauma.
Your client information
is worth its weight in gold.
Is that frustrating for you?
It must be, Broker.
Thanks to you, we'll k*ll
Toga and take Twice.
[GIRAN]
k*ll Toga?
I doubt Bubaigawara will
bounce back from that.
It's bad if I'm not wrapped up.
Please, stop it!
No! Dammit! Put her down! Toga!
That's me. I'm
trying to k*ll her.
Why would I hurt the girl
who wrapped me
in her handkerchief!
That's me! No, it's not!
Right? I'd never do that!
So who is it?
Where is the real me?
Am I a copy?
Have I been lying to
myself this whole time?
I'm gonna tear myself in two!
Am I the original?
Is this really me?
Who am I?

extent of my Quirk!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
My Quirk is Double.
It lets me make two
things out of one thing.
I can make up to
two copies at a time.
And what I make with
my ability is more fragile
than the real thing.
The second one made
is more fragile
than the first, and I
can't make anything new
until the first one disappears.
It's no good. Sorry, Shigaraki.
I can do it. Not a problem!
I need data and something
to visualize for Double.
I don't have data for this.
I'm afraid I'm not
gonna be helpful
reproducing the yakuza b*llet.
[BUBAIGAWARA] I'm sorry
I was never of much use.
I've been holding you back.
You accepted me,
and I want to repay you.
From the bottom of my heart.
And now I can... I can do this!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
Let's go, Twice!
[BUBAIGAWARAS]
It's time for a m*ssacre!
Hurry! We'll help
Mister Skeptic!
Don't k*ll the Doubler.
Aw, damn it!
[BUBAIGAWARA]
A march of grief!
Sad Man's Parade!
Do your worst.
I'll protect my comrades!
[YOTSUBASHI]
What a surprise.
He's overcome his
psychological trauma.
It's not what you
expected from him,
huh, Mister Skeptic?
A rare miscalculation
and failure.
Failure?
What are you talking
about, Re-Destro?
I can say without hesitation
I've only failed
once in the past.
Understand? Just one time
in my entire life!
So you take it back.
This is all to plan!
I'm just prepping
for my next move.
[elevator dings]
[YOTSUBASHI]
Ah. Yes. Of course, Skeptic.
[GIRAN coughs] So, the kid's
right in the head now?
He must have one
hell of a doctor.
If his shackles are really off,
he can do anything. You'll see.
At the very least,
he can even out
the numbers on the b*ttlefield.
Quality over quantity.
Right, Geten?
Your power may be useful
in the right situation, sure.
But you've almost blown through
all the ice in the area.
[MR. COMPRESS]
If you've got a free hand,
then help me!
Why should I bother
lending you a hand?
[MR. COMPRESS]
Are you so unfeeling?
Plenty of other guys over
there who can help you out.
[TWICE]
Dabi! Mr. Compress!
Backup Twices are here
to the rescue!
[TWICES chattering]
[MR. COMPRESS]
What the hell? But your trauma!
[TWICE]
Love and courage evened me out!
[MR. COMPRESS] I don't
get it, but it sounds like
you're on a hero's journey,
even though you're a villain!
[TWICE] What? Is it weird for
a villain to save his friends?
[TWICES]
Not at all.
[TWICE]
Of course I won't let you die.
[TWICE]
I'm so cool.
[TWICE]
I don't have many friends,
so you're all important to me!
--[TWICE] Wait, am I an idiot?
--[TWICE] You said it.
Not a bad fighter, though.
Yep, check me out,
I'm a natural.
Let's give 'em a good one!
Or a good , !
I'll make more of you guys, too!
We'll be more than a "league"--
we'll have the
population of a city!
Let's go, City of Villains!
[MR. COMPRESS]
Wait, Twice!
If you annihilate the enemy,
we won't have any extra players
to throw against
Gigantomachia later.
--[TWICE] Go easy on them?
--[TWICE] Then Dabi should stop.
He burns lots of stuff.
But the m*ssacre!
How long until
the big guy wakes up?
[MR. COMPRESS]
An hour and five minutes.
[TWICE]
Then I'll stall them!
More importantly,
Toga's in trouble.
Get the location from
me and hurry over!
[TWICES groan]
[TWICES]
Oh, no, mes!
What, is there some kind of
ice factory around here?
Where's all this coming from?
[GETEN]
There's more to my ability
than simple manipulation.
[DABI]
Is that so?
[GETEN]
I can control the temperature
of the molecules, too.
So, if I call out to the water
in the pipes and lower the temp,
it freezes and
becomes my w*apon.
You could have told me
that from the beginning.
Now I'm angry.
[GETEN]
In the future we're aiming for,
the strength of someone's
power will be directly linked
to their place in society.
In other words,
increasing your meta
ability will be essential.
[TWICES]
Mes!
[GETEN] There's no value
to life other than
the amount of
strength you wield.
That's a pretty
depressing worldview.
Now, die.
[GETEN] You're the one who
will perish, blue flame user.
Your body already smells burnt.
Determining your
opponent's meta power
is the most basic of tactics.
Your scorched skin looks like
it's about to fall off.
You won't be able to fight
for long, will you?
Because your flames are
consuming your own body.
[MR. COMPRESS]
A frightening attack.
And he willingly
sacrificed his own allies.
The ice user is trouble.
He's the only one who
stands out from the rest.
He's exactly who we want
to throw at Machia.
[DOCTOR chuckles]
This hardly seems fair.
But if you die here,
All For One will be so sad.
[ALL FOR ONE]
Machia.
[DOCTOR] The master's
successor is doing his best,
but he's awfully tired.
[GIGANTOMACHIA]
The master's successor.
Shigaraki, how you
holding up over there?
[SHIGARAKI] Concerned?
Should we not have come?
Well, if we hadn't
come to this city,
then we would've been
reported and chased
by a bunch of heroes, right?
We would have been
in trouble either way.
Yes, I suppose that's true.
They had me trapped.
Look over there, Spinner.
The tower's close.
[SHIGARAKI]
And it's well guarded.
Where'd all these
people come from?
Whoa, there are so many Twices!
[TWICE]
Yo, Spinner!
A buncha me died in the ice.
I twisted my knee!
Shigaraki!
Well, this is unexpected.
You're an army now.
[TWICES]
Yeah!
[TWICE]
And since I can do this...
[LIBERATION ARMY yelling]
[TWICE] I can help the
team out, right, Boss?
[TWICES groan]
You're incredible, Twice.
Think you have enough
clones to clear a path
to the tower for me?
Someone said their
boss and Giran
are holed up inside there.
I thought that it
might be a bluff, but...
The closer we get,
the more enemies there are.
They're protecting something.
We need to leave enough
pawns to take on Machia,
but I wanna make sure
their big boss is dead.
[TWICE]
Yeah! You got it!
Why don't you go take a nap
while I trim the fat for ya.
We'll take down
the Liberation Army
with a single multiple person!
Hey, me! I'll leave
that tower to you!
Hold on, Giran! I'm coming!
So, Twice is gonna be able
to handle this by himself.
[SHIGARAKI] He does have
a real soft spot for Giran.
The Liberation Army is
playing with people's hearts.
I'll make sure they suffer
until their last breaths.
[HANABATA] You, leader
of the League of Villains!
Up to now, we have allowed
you to pursue your agenda!
The politician!
Forgot about him.
[HANABATA] We believe humans
are not frail beings,
that we all have some
sort of power.
Our revival party
will show how people
use their meta abilities
to defeat evil!
Witness the strength
of flesh and blood!
It's time. Dismantle
our guests of honor.
Crush the League of Villains!
Liberate yourselves, my friends!
Use your righteous power
to bring forth a new era!
Show the world that
everyone is a hero,
and that at the
same time, nobody is!
[TWICES groan]
[TWICE]
I'll leave the rest to you, me.
[SPINNER]
Hanabata. Damn it!
Every time he talks,
the soldiers out here
get more fired up.
What should I do?
Shigaraki is already exhausted.
We can't let him
get more worn out.
[TWICE]
There you are!
You're the jerk who crashed our
big fight and made us come here.
What a crappy move!
Oh. So you made it to the tower?
[TWICE] What's with
the weird hair, Baldy?
No, wait, I'll call
you Forehead.
Sorry, that was rude.
Bubaigawara.
[TWICE]
I can double lots of things,
but it's much faster
to make more of me.
Because I know myself
better than anybody!
Beg for forgiveness
while you pee your
pants, Forehead!
That was quite a large
number of warriors
waiting for you downstairs.
Your meta ability is wonderful,
just like Skeptic said.
Listen up, you guys!
You're just copies
of my real comrades!
So even if you die,
you won't be gone forever!
No worries,
I'll dig beautiful graves
for each of you.
[SHIGARAKI] Don't make a copy
of your leader just to k*ll him.
[TWICE]
Repeat after me!
"We're doubles, so even if
we die, we are not dead!"
That should make you feel
better about this fight.
What is wrong with you?
And who are these guys?
[TWICE] The weirdo there
is the Liberation Army boss.
[MR. COMPRESS]
Uh-- Hey, are you able
to clone yourself now?
[TWICE] Oh, right, I guess
I didn't catch you up
on the situation with my psyche.
I got over my trauma.
[MR. COMPRESS]
Wait, are you a clone, too?
[TWICE] What're you saying?
I'm the realist of the real.
No, I'm the original.
Shut your face!
It doesn't matter,
I'll put my soul on the line
for everyone's sake!
Do you feel the same or what?
[TWICE]
Holy--
See? He was totally
a fake the whole time.
Pretty fragile clone.
Also, I'm fairly certain
you don't understand
what the term "hostage" means.
[MR. COMPRESS]
Did you see what he did?
Don't ask me.
[YOTSUBASHI]
Bubaigawara.
If you make any more
copies, Giran is dead.
He's not a formal member
of your group,
so I don't really want
to k*ll him, but I will.
[SHIGARAKI]
You did good, Twice.
You made sure we outnumber him.
He's just one man.
[MR. COMPRESS]
We've got the advantage!
Get Giran back and we can leave.
[TWICES]
Wait!
[VILLAINS gasp]
[YOTSUBASHI grunts]
[YOTSUBASHI]
Useless fodder.
It's ridiculous to think
that we're even
fighting in the same ring.
[TWICE]
Giran.
--[TWICE] Giran!
--[GIRAN] Ow.
[TWICE gasps]
Your fingers.
They really took
them, didn't they?
Damn it.
And it's your right hand!
That's your smoking hand!
Aw, man. How could
they do such a thing?
I'm sorry!
I'm the one who
should apologize.
He got the info about
you guys from my files.
I'm a failure as a broker.
[TWICE]
Don't you say that!
People who haven't
done anything wrong
should never have to apologize!
You're taking this so seriously.
As long as you have a goal
as an organization,
such excessive emotion
is unnecessary.
Your little League
just can't compete.
[SHIGARAKI] Sounds like
you have a noble dream.
Oh, still alive are you?
A noble dream, I like that.
Heh. Perfect timing.
Let's test your might.
Once there was a young
woman who gave birth
to a child with a meta ability.
This was back when
people still had
strong prejudices against them,
when the world was in chaos,
a place of unending abuse
and unfettered discrimination.
She pleaded with society
on behalf of her
beloved offspring.
After all, he couldn't be
blamed for how he was born.
[YOTSUBASHI] "Please,"
she said, "make this a world
where my child
can live freely!"
But society looked
at her and laughed.
She never spoke
out for him again,
and do you know why
that is, friend?
I'll tell you.
She was k*lled by those
who opposed meta powers.
Yeah, you think I'm stupid?
She came up with
the term "Quirks."
Sorry, I heard you didn't
have any formal education.
Anyway, as heroes and vigilantes
became more popular,
the government
started trying to
reestablish order.
They dug up her appeal while
working on the political reform.
They adopted the term Quirks,
said they were natural.
It changed how people thought!
However! In actuality,
the political measures
that were implemented
suppressed meta abilities
more than ever!
There's no point just changing
what they're called.
What they wanted to squash
was the use of powers.
Some couldn't use their
powers as they wanted,
so it was freedom in name alone.
But you know what
Destro thought?
"This isn't the future
my mother wanted.
Meta abilities or Quirks--
we must use them freely."
His mother?
[YOTSUBASHI] It was an
inconvenient truth for society.
Do you understand why Destro
was wanted for so many crimes?
He sought true freedom
through revolution!
And now... I will
accomplish Destro's dream!
His blood is in my veins.
I am his descendant.
This world will change at
the hands of Re-Destro!
You're just some thugs
with the urge to destroy.
How can you possibly stand
against our glorious dream?
Heads up, Twice.
If you're gonna protect Giran,
you'll need a cushion.
[TWICE]
A cushion?
[SHIGARAKI] I was caught on the
window with that first blast.
A good vantage point.
My eyes met his down below.
He's here. The tower's in reach.
I'd touch it if I were him.
[SHIGARAKI]
The thing about humans.
They're supposed to die
when they fall from up high.
So you must be
the liberation boss.
I didn't get an answer
to my question.
Such a pity.
[IZUKU]
Here's the preview!
The League of Villains has
shifted to counterattacking.
In the middle of
fighting Re-Destro,
leader of the
Meta Liberation Army,
Shigaraki recalls a past
that he'd long forgotten.
What in Tenko Shimura's
tragic upbringing
made him run toward destruction?
Next time, "Tenko
Shimura: Origin."
Remember the feelings
that grew within you.
Where did they come from?
What did they teach you?
Go beyond! Plus Ultra!
