07x01 - (Sub) In the Nick of Time! A Big-Time Maverick from the West!

Post by bunniefuu »

Izuku: How long has it been since I've done laundry?

Ochaco: Izuku Midoriya is trying to take on the burden of his power,

Ochaco: but he still has a lot to learn.

Ochaco: He's just a normal high schooler!

Ochaco: Please...

Ochaco: let this place...

Ochaco: continue to be his hero academia!

Izuku: I'm... back...

Gran Torino: Don't be too stubborn.

Gran Torino: There are times when you need to k*ll someone to save them.

Gran Torino: Don't forget that.

Izuku: It might be that the only way to stop him is to k*ll him.

Izuku: I don't know what I should do specifically yet, but...

Izuku (young): I want to save that kid.

Izuku: The final battle is approaching...

Izuku: But strangely, I don't feel afraid.

Izuku: We'll get it back together.

Izuku: Overcome despair, and go beyond--to the future.

Special Correspondent: I am here in Japan's largest city, Tokyo.

Special Correspondent: As you can see, the city is basically shut down.

Special Correspondent: It appears other cities are in a similar state.

Special Correspondent: The criminal group who brought about this unprecedented devastation to Japan

Special Correspondent: calls themselves the Paranormal Liberation Front.

Special Correspondent: Their leaders are the infamous All For One, also known as the Symbol of Evil

Special Correspondent: and the one expected to be his successor, Tomura Shigaraki.

Special Correspondent: They have released inmates one after another from prisons all over the country,

Special Correspondent: and these villains called "jailbreakers" have only been causing more destruction.

Special Correspondent: Japan's heroes are working with the police to recapture these jailbreakers,

Special Correspondent: but they are being overwhelmed in numbers.

Special Correspondent: Because of this, the Japanese government has requested the temporary dispatch of--

Villain A: What the hell are you doin'?

Special Correspondent: I-I'm just here to report the current situation in this country--

Villain A: Outsiders can't just do what they want!

Special Correspondent: Stop...

Villain B: Having fun watching someone else's problem?!

Wedge: b*stard!

Biggs: Ethan, do we have orders to attack?

Ethan: Not yet.

Ethan: The incident in Japan made villains in countries around the world more active.

Ethan: I'm sure it's hard for the White House to act with our own country in danger.

Biggs: Damn it!

Biggs: Even though it'd only take us about two hours to bring heroes to Japan!

Star and Stripe: In that case...

Star and Stripe: Will you take me, bros?

Ethan: Star...

Wedge: Don't blame us if you get in trouble, Star!

Star and Stripe: I'll be going either way.

Star and Stripe: It's just a matter of sooner or later.

Star and Stripe: Besides, it's a direct request from All Might.

Star and Stripe: My master's in trouble!

Star and Stripe: There's no reason for me to think twice!

On Top,sign: In the Nick of Time! A Big-Time Maverick from the West!

All For One: This is a critical moment.

All For One: It's thanks to the jailbreakers going wild to their hearts' content.

All For One: The police and the heroes have their hands full stopping them

All For One: and can't devote their full forces to us.

All For One: We can beat them at hide-and-seek on this small island nation.

Spinner: We could've beat them if we left the country, too.

All For One: Well, the conditions are different.

All For One: Beating them at hide-and-seek is a short-term goal.

All For One: Taking possession of One For All is a medium-term goal.

Spinner: That's not your ultimate goal?

All For One: I've got a long plan for my life.

All For One: And now, the biggest hurdle of that plan--and the biggest chance--is coming.

All For One: I have many friends all over the world, you see.

All For One: In Japan, All Might eradicated organized crime,

All For One: but that's not the case overseas.

All For One: If I have them run riot, it'll become necessary

All For One: for each country to weigh their options of helping themselves or others.

Spinner: What do you mean by a hurdle and a chance?

All For One: Star and Stripe.

All For One: The strongest woman.

All For One: The hero who reigns at the top of the land of the free, the birthplace of heroes!

All For One: Petty tricks don't mean anything to her.

All For One: It's a gamble!

All For One: Having that intervene will be worse than a pain.

All For One: But if I can steal her Quirk, then the battle will be as good as won.

All For One: Now, Iguchi.

All For One: Unlike Toya and the others, you seem devoted to guarding me,

All For One: but it's time you made a move, too.

All For One: From now on, you will support Tomura Shigaraki's fight, Spinner!

All For One: Like that name, you spin things together.

All For One: You were nobody.

All For One: As a heteromorph, you had a tough life.

All For One: You can already hear it, can't you?

All For One: There are many who sympathize with you in the shadows.

Sign: Liberate the Paranormal

Sign: Spinner is a spokesperson

Black-Hooded Leader: Because of the abominable old regime,

Black-Hooded Leader: Re-Destro was captured.

Black-Hooded Leader: But look!

Black-Hooded Leader: Our hopes are not completely dashed!

Black-Hooded Leader: The embers of liberation are still burning!

Black-Hooded Leader: We are part of the Vanguard Action Support Regiment...

Black-Hooded Leader: We were put in Spinner's regiment because we were like him.

Black-Hooded Leader: The only unhurt leader, the great Skeptic, said...

Skeptic: Liberate yourselves.

Skeptic: Clean up the vestiges of the old regime

Skeptic: and realize Re-Destro's revolution.

Skeptic: Gather warriors in the way easiest for you all!

Skeptic: I don't like them,

Skeptic: but I must do what the circumstances call for.

On Top,Sign: Himiko Toga's tragedy continues!

Skeptic: Re-Destro found hope in those guys.

Skeptic: It doesn't matter if

Skeptic: the League of Villains will bear the responsibilities of true liberators or not.

Skeptic: Worship them!

Skeptic: We will make them into the real thing!

Skeptic: In the future where Tomura Shigaraki destroys...

Skeptic: ...we will be the ones planting the seeds of new growth!

Hawks: They will enter our airspace soon.

Hawks: Once we meet up, we should start planning our strategy right away.

Hawks: Anyway, it's really reassuring to have her here,

Hawks: but with Star be okay after this?

Best Jeanist: It's because she's like that that we will be saved.

Best Jeanist: I have wanted to talk to her

Best Jeanist: about the precious vintage denim from the Gold Rush for a long time.

Tsukauchi: This is Tsukauchi!

Tsukauchi: Endeavor! Hawks!

Tsukauchi: Can you hear me?

Tsukauchi: We just received a report!

Tsukauchi: In their flight path, kilometers from the landing point!

Tsukauchi: It's him! He's shown himself!

Star and Stripe: Such a warm welcome already?

Star and Stripe: You're a free spirit.

Star and Stripe: Are you the villain called All For One?

Shigaraki: Who knows?

Shigaraki: What... am I...?

Star and Stripe: So that's All For One...

Ethan: No, Star.

Ethan: That's Tomura Shigaraki.

Ethan: According to our intel, he can destroy things just by touching them.

Ethan: He also has super strength, regenerative abilities, and can use EMP attacks.

Ethan: All aircraft, disengage autopilot!

Ethan: Deploy your anti-pulse fields!

Wedge: Roger that, Bravo leader.

Biggs: Anti-pulse field, deployed!

Ethan: I'll ask just in case.

Ethan: Engage? Or evade?

Star and Stripe: Of course...

Star and Stripe: Smash!

Ethan: Okay, Star.

Ethan: I hope at least one plane can land safely.

Star and Stripe: Battle formation!

Ethan: All aircraft, Formation Delta!

Wedge: Roger that, Bravo leader.

Star and Stripe: Now, let's get that villain!

Star and Stripe: I'll make sure to bring your remains back to your families!

Star and Stripe: So you can fight without reserve!

Shigaraki: It's a strange feeling...

Shigaraki: I can assert that I am Tomura Shigaraki.

Shigaraki/All For One: At the same time...

All For One: There's no doubt that I'm me, either...

Shigaraki: I've felt like this ever since I woke up.

Shigaraki: Radio Waves plus Air Cannon plus Heavy Payload.

Star and Stripe: Get away!

Shigaraki: I know what your Quirk is.

Shigaraki: It's a matter of who touches who first, America!

Star and Stripe: Even if you know what hand I've got,

Star and Stripe: making it so you can't counter it is what makes me the best, boy!

Star and Stripe: "Air."

Star and Stripe: "From now on, the air in the space meters in front of me will cease to exist"!

Star and Stripe: Then die with this!

Caption: Star and Stripe / Quirk: New Order

Narrator: Star and Stripe. Quirk: New Order.

Narrator: After touching something, by calling out its name, she can give it new rules!

Narrator: In this case, she touched the air

Narrator: and gave it the new rule that it would cease to exist

Narrator: to create a vacuum!

Shigaraki: That's a mean Quirk.

Shigaraki/All For One: I want it!

Star and Stripe: Well, someone who'd come all the way out here to meet me wouldn't die like that.

Star and Stripe: Laser Cannons!

Ethan: Locked on target!

Ethan: Fire!

Wedge: Yes! I brought him down!

Biggs: You're an idiot, Wedge! I got him first!

Star and Stripe: We're not done yet!

Shigaraki: Reflect plus Scatter!

Star and Stripe: "Laser"!

Star and Stripe: "The laser can be held"!

Ethan: His body's regenerating...!

Wedge: That's what Japan lost to!

Shigaraki: The vacuum's gone.

Shigaraki: Is that one of New Order's limitations?

Shigaraki: Should I go for it?

Star and Stripe: Moving through the air with super strength is just what I want to see!

Star and Stripe: "Tomura Shigaraki"!

Star and Stripe: I can only set two rules at once.

Star and Stripe: The first is constantly on myself.

Star and Stripe: It's impossible to have power as strong as All Might's, but even so--!

Star and Stripe: In the past, I was saved by an exchange student from Japan.

Star and Stripe: My family was on the way to Santa Monica Pier.

Star and Stripe: A robber on the run started attacking our car.

Star and Stripe: I thought, "If I can just save my little sister!"

Star and Stripe: and prepared for death, when at that moment--

Star and Stripe: He was there.

Star and Stripe: I will never forget those two yellow antenna bangs

Star and Stripe: for the rest of my life.

Star and Stripe: He became my master!

Star and Stripe: In order to pay tribute to the peace he brought about,

Star and Stripe: I gave myself eight antenna bangs!

Shigaraki: No matter where I go... it's always All Might...!

Star and Stripe: That's why he's called the Symbol of Peace.

Star and Stripe: By the way,

Star and Stripe: I touched you with that last tackle and called your name.

Star and Stripe: "If Tomura Shigaraki moves at all from this place...

Star and Stripe: ...his heart will stop."

Shigaraki: She got me!

All For One/Shigaraki: Ever since I awakened, there were indications...

All For One: The boundary between us was extremely ambiguous...

All For One: It should have taken two months of recuperation to become "me" completely...

All For One: You're amazing, Tomura!

All For One: Your hatred! Your destructive urges!

All For One: They are growing beyond Doctor and my expectations!

All For One: In percentages, I'd say we are at % or %!

All For One: We will be one soon!

All For One: We will be neither All For One nor Tomura Shigaraki.

All For One: We're melding together into a new person!

Shigaraki: No... way...

Shigaraki: No!

Star and Stripe: It's not working?!

Star and Stripe: Does he have a different name?

Star and Stripe: Is he not Tomura Shigaraki?

All For One: I see! That's fine with me!

All For One: Do you hate me? Hate me more!

All For One: Your hate will lead to our bright future!

Star and Stripe: His hair!

Shigaraki: It started from that house...

Shigaraki: The piling up of each and every small resentment!

Star and Stripe: His hair grew longer?!

Star and Stripe: I don't get this guy.

Shigaraki: I'm starting to understand New Order...

Shigaraki: It's super strong, but there are rules.

Shigaraki: The number one hero in the U.S., Star and Stripe.

Shigaraki: Her Quirk is closely guarded by the U.S.,

Shigaraki: and no details about it have been released.

Shigaraki: By touching her target and calling its name,

Shigaraki: she can impose any rule she wants on it.

Shigaraki: It deviates from other Quirks with its absurd power that's like child's play.

Shigaraki: But, I've figured out some things based on our fight.

Shigaraki: There's a limit to how much power you can add to a living, physical body.

Shigaraki: If there were no limit,

Shigaraki: then there's no reason she couldn't have shattered my skull with her first hit.

Star and Stripe: "If Tomura Shigaraki moves at all from this place...

Star and Stripe: ...his heart will stop."

Shigaraki: Based on that rule, there's no limit to its weakening effects.

Shigaraki: It's like setting a life meter with an upper limit to whatever to you want.

Shigaraki: On the other hand, since she didn't say something like

Shigaraki: "Whatever touches this specified block of air will die,"

Shigaraki: it seems she can't impose a rule on something she hasn't touched.

Shigaraki: Or, she can but its effect is weaker?

Shigaraki: Even so, being able to create a vacuum and hold lasers with her rules

Shigaraki: means there's a lot of freedom with non-living things.

Shigaraki: That's the essence of New Order!

Shigaraki: The difference between living and non-living things must be in the name.

Shigaraki: The reason the rule didn't work on me

Shigaraki: must be the difference in perception.

Shigaraki: Ms. Star thought of me as Tomura Shigaraki when she touched me,

Shigaraki: But right now, I'm not sure if I'm Tomura Shigaraki, or All For One,

Shigaraki: or even Tenko Shimura.

Shigaraki: When she calls someone with a sense of self by their name,

Shigaraki: their perceptions have to align.

Shigaraki: But it works on objects with no sense of self based only on Ms. Star's perception.

Shigaraki: Is there a two-target limit?

Shigaraki: What's the scope of the power?

Shigaraki: Would it work on a dog like Mon if she called out "Mon"?

Shigaraki: What's gotten into me?

Shigaraki: I have this irresistible urge to test it...

Shigaraki: It's bugging me.

Star and Stripe: Looks like he had a countermeasure ready for attacks on his respiratory system.

Ethan: What will you do, Star?

Ethan: Neither New Order nor the concentrated laser attack work

Ethan: on that regenerating b*stard.

Star and Stripe: Tell Commander Agpar.

Ethan: Don't tell me...

Ethan: Acting on your own is bad enough, but that's...

Star and Stripe: If I don't use it here, then what's the point of my special authority?

Star and Stripe: He's not just an enemy of Japan now,

Star and Stripe: he's an enemy of the world.

Star and Stripe: We will k*ll him now, in a way Japan can't.

Star and Stripe: So until we land, give me a place to stand, okay, bros?

Ethan: Jeez...

Ethan: Taking care of our number one's a lot of work.

Star and Stripe: You guys are with me starting today!

Star and Stripe: Let's fight together until death do us part, brothers!

Ethan: Wedge! Shake off that old rag on top of you!

Ethan: That spot's for Star!

Wedge: Roger that!

Star and Stripe: Just because you get how it works doesn't mean you can counter it!

Star and Stripe: "The air will harden into a shape a thousand times my size!"

Star and Stripe: Fist Bump to the Earth!

Shigaraki: I can't see it, but something feels off...

Star and Stripe: There's no point in accumulating damage.

Star and Stripe: And if I say, "Tell me your true name!"

Star and Stripe: There's no way he'd tell me.

Star and Stripe: In the end, this is the way to beat him!

Star and Stripe: By crushing him into a million pieces!

Star and Stripe: But man, he's hard to crush!

Star and Stripe: Bros, give me your lasers!

Star and Stripe: "The lasers

Star and Stripe: will all gather into one!"

Star and Stripe: United Hyper-Max Output Laser...

Star and Stripe: Keraunos!

Ethan: The continuous blast of the max laser!

Ethan: That's got to burn him to a crisp!

Star and Stripe: No, it's just keeping him from regenerating!

Star and Stripe: If this was enough to defeat him,

Star and Stripe: then Endeavor would've been able to do it already!

Agpar: Star.

Star and Stripe: Commander Agpar!

Agpar: I'd gotten used to your willfulness and let my guard down.

Agpar: You won't be able to get away with just losing your license this time.

Star and Stripe: That's fine! Is it ready?

Agpar: I'll give you a shot for free.

Agpar: And I've already informed Japan.

Agpar: They'll be there soon.

Star and Stripe: That's wonderful!

Agpar: Your willfulness and disregard for rules have made our country shine bright.

Agpar: That villain couldn't even be captured by All Might.

Agpar: It's time for you to surpass him, Cassie.

Agpar: State-of-the-Art Hypersonic Intercontinental Cruise Missiles...

Agpar: Tiamat.

Agpar: Get each and every one...

Agpar: ...to hit its mark.

On Top,sign: Preview

Izuku: Here's the preview!

Izuku: The fight between Star and Stripe and Tomura Shigaraki is getting intense.

Izuku: With the joint as*ault of Star's Quirk, New Order,

Izuku: and the Intercontinental Cruise Missiles: Tiamat,

Izuku: will they be able to stop evil?

Izuku: This is a watershed moment for the world.

Izuku: Next time, "Specter."

Izuku: That's the strong will of those who have inherited the light.

OS,sign: Next time: Specter

Izuku: Go beyond!

Izuku: Plus Ultra!
