08x10 - (Dub) The Girl Who Loves Smiles

[bunniefuu]

POLICE STATION

[GENTLE] Oh my stars. La Brava.

Gentle!

How my heart longed
for you as I toiled--

Given how much you
contributed to the battles,

you're being released.

It's because you were
so beyond awesome, my darling.

And you were
exquisite, La Brava!

VISITATION ROOM

What?

They told you you were
free to go, right?

Why are you still here?

Isn't it obvious?

I'm afraid of the outside.

What if somebody ends
up using me like before?

Dang.

I was hoping you'd help
me with a bunch of stuff.

On that day, Izuku
Midoriya showed the world

something incredible.

Until I know that
changes society,

I'm staying right where I am.

Let the taxpayers keep
footing the bill for my food

and lodging.

Ha.

You villain.

SPECIAL FEATURE
WHO WAS TOMURA SHIGARAKI?

OFFICE WORKER [AGE 35]

I'm glad he's dead.

The entire world was
terrified of him.

STUDENTS [AGE 21]

My friend died
in there fighting.

That man was a devil.

He may be gone, but he
left my life in pieces.

And my home got
destroyed too.

HOUSEWIFE
[AGE 70]

This tragedy could have
been prevented, I'm sure.

How, though?

It really makes you think.

RESTAURANT MANAGER
[AGE 30]

At first, we all thought
he was just some thug

making lots of noise.

Nobody imagined he would
pose such a giant threat.

[REPORTER] Restoration
work is proceeding

rapidly thanks to volunteers
and international aid.

Despite that fact, there
are many areas in need

of additional manpower.

Streets filled with
mountains of rubble

serve as a terrible
testament to how

widespread the damage is.

The League of Villains
was behind the acts

of terror that destroyed
the lives of so many.

But who exactly was Tomura
Shigaraki, their leader?

Find out now in part
two of our report.

THE GIRL WHO LOVES SMILES

[DOCTOR] When he got here, he
was turning into a Nomu, a side

effect of the extra quirks.

Luckily, thanks
to our ongoing research

into the Nomu and the fact that
he wasn't too far gone yet,

we were able to get his
body back under control.

You've got some nerve
showing up here, m*rder*r.

I deserve that.

We need to talk about
Shigaraki's death.

What kind of sicko are you?

Spare me the details.

I have a message, so listen.

"Tell him I tried
to destroy it all.

I fought until the bitter end."

Huh?

He told you to tell people
that before he died?

Not people.

You.

Me?

And Toga and Dabi
and Compress too.

He only said your name.

[gasps]

Shigaraki was
my shining hope.

He smiled about destruction.

And then in Deika, he showed
me what we could do together.

He was my voice,
my greatest supporter.

I was hated for being
a heteromorph.

And just when I was
about to give up on life,

he gave me a reason to live,
a dream that maybe one day I

could do something big, that I
could be somebody who mattered.

That's quite enough.

I'll call security.

Tomura Shigaraki was my hero.

Do you understand?

Wanton destruction was just
entertainment for that monster.

He threw tantrums
devoid of purpose

or an overarching message.

And he was a gamer like me.

As we learn more about
him, many are focusing

on his traumatic childhood.

When I was a shut in, video
games were my whole life.

They were all I had.

Look, it's human nature
to seek out a narrative.

But if we turn this
into some sob story,

we risk inspiring copycats.

Let's break the cycle.

He understood me,
and he played and loved

a bunch of my favorite games.

Calling him anything
but an evil b*stard

would be dangerous.

Don't sugarcoat it.

He was my best friend.

The first of my miserable life.

He told me that he still
needed to be the League's hero,

and I've witnessed how
he held each one of you

deep inside of his heart.

I think he wanted you to know
about that, because he must

have felt the same way you do.

[sobs]

[SPINNER] I got caught
up in the frenzy.

I got in so deep, I thought
there was no turning back.

I've always been slow on the
uptake and reading the room.

If I'd had the courage
to take one more step,

could I have been
able to save my hero?

[REPORTER] Who knows
if there's another Shigaraki

or All For One out
there biding their time

and waiting to strike.

We must always be looking
for the next threat.

[SPINNER] You heroes, you're
going to keep fighting, right?

All smiles, and you'll try
to forget us, Shigaraki

and his League of Villains.

But you won't, 'cause
I'm going to write a book

about Tomura Shigaraki,
the symbol of fear.

It'll be a reminder
to you people

that the League existed to tear
down everything you built.

The past won't disappear.

I'll make sure the world
knows what happened.

I hope it's a comic book.

What?

You're worrying
about nothing.

We won't forget.

Hmm.

I got a message too.

Tell your octopus
pal to keep fighting.

VISITATION ROOM

[door closes]

[SPINNER] Well, it might be
nice to have some illustrations

in the story.

Pictures transcend both
language and intelligence.

WAITING ROOM

Look who it is.

Did you pass along
your message?

Yes.

Oh, by the way, you know that

request you made about Chisaki?

[BOSS] You've seen better
days, you lost soul.

Boss.

It's you.

I thought you were in a coma.

You mean the one
you put me in?

Fortunately for me,
support items

are getting better every day.

And I'm no boss anymore.

There's no one left to oversee.

But, Pops.

You wandered from
the straight and narrow,

and look where it got you.

I always tried to offer
you a guiding hand

to keep you on the right path.

I bet Kurono never
questioned you, though.

Can you forgive me?

I'm sorry.

[BOSS] Don't bother.

Eri is the one who deserves

an eternity of your apologies.

Hopefully she'll
forget about you,

but don't you dare
forget what you did.

Never fear.

I intend to remind
you of your mistakes

until hell swallows you.

I see.

Thanks for doing that.

Of course.

I'm glad we could keep Eri
out of it, for her sake.

Is there a way to keep
this from happening again?

I'm afraid not.

We could always ask Hawks
to draft an army of new heroes.

Wait, I didn't know he
had that kind of power now.

No, kid, that was a joke.

[NAOMASA] Let's
change the subject.

The new students
start class today.

We can't let them see us
looking down in the dumps.

[IZUKU] But Hero Corps
students from different years

rarely cross paths.

I doubt we'll see much of them.

[screaming]

Oh my gosh, I'm dying!

[chittering]

Um, what is happening?

Expel every one
of these creeps.

The newbies are intense.

I watched every second
of his battle with All For One.

And I've admired Todoroki
since the Sports Festival.

Me too.

He's kind of my idol.

I feel you.

Ditto.

Admiration is one thing,

but you must show respect.

Coming after them
as a mob, that's alarming.

I'd be happy to talk
to you one at a time.

They were running
in the hallway.

Do your worst, class rep.

Indeed.

It's imperative that
we follow the rules.

Don't forget, they're
still injured.

They need peace and quiet.

What was I thinking?

Forgive us.

Something just came over me.

I thought Bakugo
would like having

a horde of die-hard groupies.

Even he can only handle
so many screaming fans.

This is kind
of new for him too.

Girls have actively avoided
Kacchan for most of his life.

Really?

Shocking.

I'm going to be
sick to my stomach.

I know he was super heroic,

but bad boys shouldn't

be getting so much love.

Punk.

Why are you still here?

We're really sorry, honest.

OK, now I'm less surprised.

Midoriya, sir, hello.

I saw your fight, and it
made me wish I was braver.

I wanted to do
something and help out.

That's why I'm here.

I just wanted to thank you.

That's it.

Bye.

[heart beating]

Oh.

Sure.

[IZUKU] This pain.

Our other classmates, fine.

I can handle them being popular
with the girls, but not you.

My soul cries in protest.

[MAN] Come on.

Those battles were epic.

And the three of them were
center stage the whole time.

Why wouldn't the kids love 'em?

[heart beating]

STAFF ROOM

I got another interview
request for Class 2A.

Delete.

I bet some of them would
be interested, like Mineta.

But some are
avoiding the press.

They take priority.

This is where you'll
be rebuilding today.

[ALL] Yes, sir.

Well, looky
here, it's Class A.

[ALL] Fat Gum.
- Put us to work.

You got it.

My sidekick, Sun Eater,

is already on the job.

Start over here.

[ALL] Yes, sir.

Let's get to it, everyone.

I'll clear out the rubble.

[rumbling]

Collect any metals here.

Sounds good.

Your seams are still frayed.

Perhaps you should have stayed
back and gotten some rest.

You're still pocket sized.

Don't sweat it.

I'm recovering gradually.

See?

Hands.

Will you ever be,
you know, normal?

I would never settle
for anything less.

[uplifting music]

[grunts]

[cracking]

[expl*si*n]

[whooshing]

Break time.

We put together some
lunch for you kids.

Ooh, onigiri.

Looks delicious.

It's a feast.

You made this for us?

My home and land were
completely destroyed

at some point in the fighting.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Oh.
Oh, no.

I wasn't really trying
to blame anyone.

Don't worry.

We just couldn't
stand here moping

while you were hard at work.

We want to help out with the
rebuilding any way we can too.

The way I see it, it
wouldn't be right to leave

everything to other people.

Let's get this job
done today so we can say

we earned this k*ller food.

I think you need a few
more workers for that.

[murmuring]

A bus?

That's unexpected.

Sorry to intrude.

My students wanted
to apologize.

We're sorry we
overwhelmed you earlier.

We weren't thinking
of how you might feel.

These newbies are intense.

Why did you bring them here?

They were very persuasive.

You upperclassmen put
your lives on the line for us,

so we want to make sure
that we're useful too.

We're new and we don't
have our licenses yet.

But please tell
us how we can help.

Find some light work
on the sidelines and stay out

of their way.

[ALL] Yes, sir.

So, like, we weren't
this weird, were we?

I'm afraid we didn't
prepare enough food for you.

[ALL] We already ate.

I don't know
the whole story, but

it sounds to me
like your diligent

work ethic is contagious.

Are you OK?

Hmm.

Things are beginning
to look up.

The world's getting
brighter every day.

It's a huge relief.

That's all.

Sorry if I worried you.

Deku, what kind do you want?

Um, you pick.

Mustard greens, it is.

Those and pickled
plum are my favorite.

Mm.

That's just what I needed.

[heart beating]

Huh?

Uraraka?

She said she's
going home for now.

Is something the matter, Tsu?

It's just that she hasn't
been reading her texts.

[gasps]

Damn it.

What?

I screwed up.

We were in a hurry
to get airborne,

and I didn't grab
a new battery.

[URARAKA] There's no
footage of the way

things played out
for us that day.

Only memories.

The city is starting
to look like it used to.

Things are beginning
to look up.

The world's getting
brighter every day.

It's a huge relief.

We were supposed
to make things better.

Ever since the USJ
attack, darkness

had fallen over the world.

But after all this
time, it's finally over.

Everything's been settled.

Isn't that great?

People can finally be
cheerful and optimistic again.

The best thing in life
is when everyone smiles.

I don't want to spoil that.

Which is why I'll push
this terrible pain down.

I'll pretend it's gone.

Ochaco, the point of your job
is to stop the deviants

and make sure we're put away.

But you care.

Despite everything I've
done, you care about me.

[URARAKA] I love seeing people
light up with happiness.

That's why I set
out to be a hero.

Yet here I am, only alive
because Himiko died for me.

What have I done?

[sobs]

Uraraka.

Deku?

Why are you-- you
knew where I was?

I had a hunch.

I leapt here using One For All.

This is where we had an
important heart to heart, so.

I talked to the others.

I told them I was going
to go home for a bit.

Which would have
been just fine

if that's what you had done.

But I had a feeling
you'd be up here.

That's nice.

I'd rather be alone, though.

Uraraka, I don't want
you to have to pretend.

You always hide what
you're going through

and focus on others.

Like before the entrance exam.

I stopped you with my quirk.

Sorry, I didn't ask.

But I figured you wouldn't
mind me catching you.

And when we found out
what the results were.

Would it be
possible to give him

some of the points I earned?

Always, every time.

Do you know what?

I like Deku.

It could make
a great hero name.

Plus, I think it
sounds kind of cute.

Please calm down!

Continue to be in Hero Academy.

[IZUKU] You prioritize
other people over yourself.

You've been that way
since I've known you.

Even at the Sports Festival,
you've saved me so many times.

That's why you are my hero.

And from now on, I refuse to
take your strength for granted.

So please hold my hand.

Sometimes that
helps ease the pain.

[sobs]

I keep thinking
about how it's all

my fault that Himiko is dead.

[sobs]

If I hadn't gotten stabbed,
or if I hadn't been

distracted by other things.

Her quirk let her share
blood with other people,

but it didn't have
to end like this.

I should have been able
to come up with another way.

If I'd only figured
her out sooner,

or if we'd met when we were
little instead of as enemies,

maybe things might
have been different.

[sobs]

[IZUKU] When a hero
is suffering,

who is there to protect
them, to ease their minds?

I've been thinking the same
thing about me and Tenko.

Or Shigaraki, I mean.

I knew that I couldn't
approach that battle

the same way as the others.

All For One made
that very clear.

He told me the path I'd chosen
to go down was a thorny one.

But still, even if we're
meddling, if we reach out,

then we can help.

I know it.
