05x08 - (S) Match 3 Conclusion

[bunniefuu]

"Class A" "Class B"

U.A. High School hero course

Class -A and Class -B's team combat training

started the third match with one win and one loss for each team.

The Class A team got a head start with Todoroki's ice attack,

but the tables were turned with Honenuki's Quirk.

The match was starting to look like it was going in the Class B team's favor.

b*stard!

Sorry.

Recipro has a time limit, right?

Isn't it bad to use it right at the beginning?

Anyway, I'm going to go help Tetsutetsu now.

Time limit?

That was a long time ago, Mudman.

Ingenium will rush anywhere, anytime.

That's what these legs are for!

I've been at full throttle this whole time!

New Style: Recipro Turbo!

Ten minutes!

For ten minutes,

no one can stop me!

Is he going to beat me with a new move I haven't seen before?

However!

So fast!

It's so fast, I can't control it completely!

Wait, this is bad...

I'm no match for him!

You're under arrest, Mudman!

"Juzo Honenuki - Quirk: Softening"

Sorry, but I'm not so stubborn that I would keep competing

in a situation where I know I'm at a disadvantage.

It's not great to leave Iida to do what he wants,

but I don't feel like I can stop him.

So, it'd be better if I hurried to Tetsutetsu and the others

to help them even a little.

"Tenya Iida - Quirk: Engine"

The ice is slowly going back to normal.

Is he hiding to counterattack?

He should already know from experience that it won't work...

Did he leave to support his teammates?

"Match Conclusion"

"Ochaco Uraraka - Quirk: Zero Gravity" "Izuku Midoriya - Quirk: One For All" "Minoru Mineta - Quirk: Pop Off"

You're so fast, Iida!

Recipro Turbo...

It's way faster than even Gran Torino.

It's 'cause you started saying stuff about "sh**t Style,"

so Iida worked hard to get his individuality back.

I need to ask him to teach me how to kick again.

"Mina Ashido - Quirk: Acid"

Forget that! Look, it's Ojiro!

"Hanta Sero - Quirk: Tape" "Kyoka Jiro - Quirk: Earphone Jack"

Ojiro's fighting is so ordinary, as usual!

And as usual, he's losing ground, but Ojiro's not the same as before, either.

You can do it!

What's with this pain in my chest?

Don't you know that you can't win if you're just parrying?!

"Mashirao Ojiro - Quirk: Tail"

Even if I attack, I get repelled.

"Sen Kaibara - Quirk: Gyrate"

Even if I defend myself,

the support items on his fingertips are so hard they'd take pieces off me.

What you're saying's brutal, Kaibara.

I've got you!

--Iida! --I'll put Spiral in jail!

I will withdraw briefly, but I'll be back soon!

Ojiro, you go help the others!

Mudman is probably also heading that way!

I'll be back soon!

Got it!

His talking gets faster, too, huh?

Iida...

Let go of me!

I haven't gotten to show off yet!

Hey, come quietly!

I won't let a villain show off!

You let Honenuki go, didn't you?

You saw how much of a pain he can be, right?

A normal person would've gone after him right away!

This isn't the place to be interfering with a one-on-one scuffle, Ingenium!

This is what my brother would've done.

I will act in the same way.

If I compromise on that during training,

then I would likely compromise during a real fight, as well.

You stick in the mud.

Yeah, I hear that a lot.

My Fist!

Thanks to his hardness,

"Denki Kaminari - Quirk: Electrification" "Eijiro Kirishima - Quirk: Hardening" "Rikido Sato - Quirk: Sugar Rush"

he can still move normally even though he's kind of frozen.

His skin won't come off or anything.

Tetsutetsu, I'll learn from your example!

"Katsuki Bakugo - Quirk: expl*si*n"

Blasting ice even though it doesn't work is something small fry would do.

"Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu - Quirk: Steel"

I'll smash the ice defense with my steel fist of justice!

"Shoto Todoroki - Quirk: Half-Cold Half-Hot"

Then,

I'll use a wall of flames!

Ouch!

Shoji! I'll leave Tsunotori to you!

Right!

Come on, back off! Put some distance between us!

You don't know why I'm your opponent, do you?!

It's because your Quirk doesn't work on me.

He's turning red from the heat...?

This time, my steel's turning red hot!

Hey!

"Pony Tsunotori - Quirk: Horn Cannon"

FIght, Hot-Tetsu!

It's part of what I did to develop my Quirk!

b*stard, have you ever spent time inside a stove?!

Tetsutetsu's got Todoroki, and he won't let him escape!

At an overwhelmingly close proximity,

he's not letting Todoroki use any of his area attacks!

Half-Cold Half-Hot

doesn't work on me!

This is the highest peak of steel I've been able to reach

after surpassing my limits!

Draw up all the heat you can from inside your body!

And then go beyond that limit!

There's no way you can't do it!

You're just not trying!

I'll keep punching you like this until you pass out!

Be aware

that there is power hidden in you stronger than any other.

Why am I...

...remembering that now?

Damn it!

Grit your teeth and bear it!

If it doesn't matter whether it's fire or ice...

You have finally become a perfect upgrade of me.

It's your power, isn't it?!

Get back.

That's hot!

More...

More...!

"Pro Hero - Vlad King - Quirk: Blood Control"

The heat's broken the camera...

Raise the temperature higher...

I can go higher...

Burn myself!

In order to become...

...who I want to be!

"Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu" "Quirk: Steel" "He can make his whole body metal. He can function even in very high or low temperatures."

"Affiliation: U.A. High School Hero Class -B" "Birthday: /" "Height: cm" "Blood Type: B" "Likes: Fighting Games, Spinach"

"Shoto Todoroki" "Quirk: Half-Cold Half-Hot" "He has two Quirks: 'freezing' on his right half and 'flames' on his left half."

"Affiliation: U.A. High School Hero Class -A" "Birthday: /" "Height: cm" "Blood Type: O" "Likes: Soba (the kind that's not hot)"

"Pro Hero - All Might - Quirk: One For All"

Young Todoroki...

Endeavor's firepower...

It's too hot...!

This heat!

It's a crazy amount of heat!

I know, Todoroki, I know!

I know, as Hot-Tetsu, holding the heat inside my body!

That's hard on your body, isn't it?

I don't think you'll be able to keep it up for long.

In that case...

I'm good at endurance contests!

Go beyond...!

You...

You won't escape with just a burn like that.

Those who don't risk their all during training

won't be able to do it in a real fight, either!

Higher ranks and limits

are there to be surpassed!

Shut up...

I'm pretty far away, but I can feel the heat even here!

I need to hurry up and go back to help Hot-Tetsu.

Sorry, Tentacole!

"Mezo Shoji - Quirk: Dupli-Arms"

At the aquarium, I never look at the octopuses. I don't like them.

I'm used to people being scared of me.

That's why I'll throw you in prison

and win the match!

Bring it on!

Thunder Horn!

Octoblow!

--I've got... --...you!

You saved me, Ojiro.

Twirling Tail Dance!

For those horns you can control,

if you can't sh**t them, then they're no threat.

Oh! The way you got me is so darn ordinary!

I'll take her to the jail.

Ojiro, you go help Todoro--

Honenuki!

I'll take Tsunotori back now.

I actually care a lot about my friends.

If you keep struggling,

then your hold on her will get looser.

You little--

Fist of the Tail: Swamp Smack Spin!

Thanks.

Likewise.

Just being repelled came with this much force...

Please tell me before you do something like that, Honenuki!

I won't loosen my grip even if you stab--

I don't need you to loosen up.

Ojiro!

With the power of four horns,

I'll send you straight to jail!

No matter how it happened,

if you're imprisoned, then you're out.

Right now, it's -.

What's wrong? You're slowing down, Todoroki!

You're getting slow, too!

I'm getting dizzy...

I can't move my body the way I want...

Even if I want to cool it down,

I need to get this guy to back off first...

...go beyond that limit!

Tetsutetsu, you're going to melt.

Hone... nuki...

Crap, I'm losing consciousness...

Harden.

I won't miss this time, Mudman!

So hot!

b*stard... Wait... I won't let you escape...

Save that guy first.

If you see a lost child, take them to the lost child department.

I think people like that are the coolest.

Stop, villain!

Rescue is my first priority!

I'm losing consciousness...

With one hit...

Even though he said he couldn't control it...

It was a huge mistake leaving Iida for later.

Man, does this mean we lost?

If I lose consciousness, the things I made soft will also go back to normal...

I couldn't even leave behind something to help like Yaoyorozu did...

I don't feel frustrated or anything.

I'd just think, "We lost."

But--

I don't want my friends to lose just because I messed up!

Tetsutetsu! Push this!

Th-This is...

Is everyone down?

But they aren't out until they're in jail!

What'll happen?

Ow! My left arm and leg...

It's heavy...

I don't have enough power with just one leg!

Todoroki... Sorry...

If only I'd been one step...

Just one step faster getting here...

Iida is still conscious but can't move?!

It looks to me like Kaibara's fighting earlier had an effect!

He fought back until right before being put in jail,

assisting in slowing Iida down!

Good job, Kaibara!

You're the MVP, Kaibara!

Your biased commentary is getting worse, Mr. Vlad!

Both Class A and Class B have one person in jail.

And four of them are down.

The ones left are...

Todoroki!

I can't let Shoji pick them up and put them in jail!

But, what should I do?

I couldn't beat Shoji even with all my horns free.

If I can't attack with all four of them, I'm even more likely to lose.

If I put Todoroki in prison, then we'll take the lead,

but carrying all three of them will weigh me down.

I'll be caught before I make it to the jail...

If I lose, then we lose...

She took them!

In that case...!

Don't tell me...

I'll go higher than he can reach and see what happens.

Even if we can't win, we definitely won't lose.

Sorry, Tentacole!

I don't want to be the reason we lose!

She took her teammates and Todoroki into the air...

Shoji can't fly with his Quirk...

She ran away.

Deku, what's the Class B team trying to do?

Probably taking the safe route.

If she left her teammates, then Shoji could put them in jail.

Why did she take Todoroki, too?

If Todoroki wakes up,

then they'll be attacked with flames or ice even if they're in the sky.

It's like insurance to make the safe route safer.

But they can't end this without putting the other team in jail.

They can't,

but they can.

Th-The time...

Twenty minutes have passed!

The third match is over!

Each team put one person in jail, so it's a draw!

It feels so unsatisfying... No fair!

"Jurota Shishida - Quirk: Beast"

In a real fight,

running away and waiting for rescue is a reasonable option.

Iida must be frustrated.

But...

He was cool.

Since there are a number of students unconscious,

they will reflect on their performances later!

Get ready for the fourth match!

"Nurse's Office"

Kiss.

"Pro Hero - Recovery Girl - Quirk: Heal"

Todoroki!

Looks like you're awake.

Here, have a CalorieBar.

Ojiro already ate his and went back.

Todoroki!

The match was a draw, but I feel like I lost the fight!

That heat was crazy!

Let's do it again!

You're too loud.

A draw...

If only I'd been faster,

we could have won.

Iida...

I'm still too slow.

I couldn't respond quickly enough to Honenuki's flexible style.

You saved me, didn't you?

I vaguely remember.

Besides, I made a mistake first.

If you came at us more coldheartedly with fire,

we wouldn't have been able to do anything.

It's become a habit to use ice as my first move.

No, it's ingrained in my body.

You're fast.

I was just slow.

Because I was slow, I made you worry.

I need to become a hero who can bring peace of mind.

No, I would never say that you're unrelia--ouch!

I will run anywhere, to anyone.

It's my conviction as Ingenium's successor.

About the flames and Recipro, honestly, I also still have work to do,

so will you fight me again?

Of course.

If you boys are all better, then hurry up and go back!

This isn't a place for chitchat!

Right! Please excuse us!

Oh, your backs are up against the wall!

Class A and B both have one win!

If you lose or draw, then you can't win anymore!

"Ahahahahaha"

"Neito Monoma - Quirk: Copy"

They're like sudden fits, huh?

Oh, I've been looking forward to this fourth match.

Why? Because that Tokage's in it.

Right, Bakugo?

All right, let's go.

Setsuna Tokage!

The other student in Class B who got in through recommendations!

She can be really nasty!

Kacchan!

Hey, wait. Are you serious?

You've gotta be kidding!

Shaddup.

Just watch, damn Deku!

We'll start when you get into position!

Fourth match, start!

"Preview"

Here's the preview!

We head into the fourth match with one win, one loss, and one draw.

From Class A, Jiro, Sero, Sato, and Kacchan are participating.

But Class B has Tokage.

Be careful. There's probably some kind of trap.

Next time, "Early Bird!"

Kacchan's fighting style's changed? No, he changed it!

"Next time: Early Bird!"

Go beyond!

Plus Ultra!
