My Hero Academia (僕のヒーローアカデミア)

Police Station

La Brava!

Gentle!

La Brava!

Gentle!

La Brava!

Gentle!

You're free to go, but only on account of your contributions.

La Brava!

It's all because you were so beyond awesome, Gentle!

You were amazing, La Brava!

Visitation Room

What?!

They said you were free to go, but you won't leave?

Just not yet. I'm still scared of the outside.

What if I end up getting used all over again?

I wanted your help with a bunch of things.

Izuku Midoriya showed something to the world that day,

and I won't go until I've seen what changes it causes in society.

I'll let the taxpayers feed me a while longer.

You villain.

Special Feature

Who was Tomura Shigaraki?

The guy was terrifying.

Office worker (age 35)

I'm so glad they got rid of him.

Students (age 21)

A friend of mine died.

Thanks to that horrible, cold-blooded killer!

I can't even. My life's all screwed up now!

And my home got destroyed.

Couldn't this have been prevented? Somehow?

Housewife (age 70)

It makes you think.

Restaurant manager

Happy Hour

BBQ

At first everyone thought he was just a thug.

Nobody imagined he was such a threat!

Restoration work is proceeding rapidly, thanks to volunteers and international aid.

But at the same time, there are areas in need of additional manpower.

The large piles of rubble are a testament to how widespread the damage was.

The League of Villains was behind the unprecedented terrorism that harmed so many people.

Just who was its leader, Tomura Shigaraki?

Find out now in part two of our report.

The Girl Who Loves Smiles

He had begun to change into a Nomu, as he couldn't handle having multiple Quirks

like Body Bulk and Scalemail.

But thanks to our ongoing research on Nomu,

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

we narrowly managed to get him under control.

What brings you waltzing right in here, murderer?

I won't deny that.

I'm here to tell you about Shigaraki's death.

You're here to add insult to injury? You're one sick dude!

You're alive, so I'll tell you.

"Tomura Shigaraki fought to destroy until the very end."

Huh?

Shigaraki told you to say that?

Yes, to you.

Me?

And to Toga and Dabi?

What about Compress?

Just you, he said.

Shigaraki... was my hope!

He smiled and said, "Let's destroy everything."

At Deika, he showed me a twisted horizon!

He was my spokesman!

I was persecuted for being a heteromorph, and just when I'd nearly given up and given in,

he showed me a dream!

Maybe I could do something big.

Maybe I could be somebody!

You don't have to take this! I'll restrain—

Tomura Shigaraki was my hero!

Destructive acts for destruction's sake?

That's nothing but a tantrum, devoid of both thought and cause!

He loved video games!

But the police investigation is ongoing, and his tragic past has come to light.

When I was a shut-in, all I did was play video games!

Getting to the bottom of things is important, but if we talk about him in sentimental terms,

someone will be inspired by him and this cycle will repeat!

And he played a bunch of the same games as me!

We have to speak plainly and firmly about the guy.

He was an evil bastard.

He was the first friend I ever had!

He was saying how he "had to be their hero."

There, deep in Shigaraki's heart, dwelled the League of Villains.

I think he wanted you to know about this

because he must have felt the same way.

I got caught up in the mania,

and lost track of the notion that there was no turning back.

I've always been so slow to pick up on things.

If I had taken one more step forward,

could I have saved my hero?

Right now, there could be a second or third Shigaraki or All For One waiting for their chance.

We have to watch for the next threat!

You heroes are going to keep fighting, right?

And, with smiles on your faces,

someday you'll forget about Tomura Shigaraki and the League of Villains.

I'm gonna write a book.

About Tomura Shigaraki, the Symbol of Fear.

It'll be an eternal reminder for you heroes that the League existed to destroy things.

The past won't fade away. I'll tell Tomura Shigaraki's tale.

I hope it's a comic book.

Huh?!

Don't worry.

We'll never forget.

I have a message too.

Tell your octopus pal to never give up.

Visitation Room

True.

It might be nice to at least have illustrations.

Pictures transcend both nationality and education level.

Welcome back, young man.

Waiting Room

Did you pass along the message?

Yes.

Oh, hey, you know that request you made about Chisaki?

You've seen better days, Chisaki.

B-Boss...

I thought you were still bedridden.

You mean, thanks to your Quirk?

But from what I hear, support items keep getting better and better.

And I'm no boss anymore. There's no gang left.

Boss!

You strayed from the straight and narrow.

Look where it's left you.

I was always willing to give you a helping hand.

To keep you from going astray.

I bet Kurono never gave you a good scolding.

Sorry...

Boss, I'm sorry...

It's too late.

Spend the rest of your life apologizing to Eri.

She'll forget about you, but don't you ever forget what you did to her.

Never fear. I'll keep on scolding you until you kick the bucket.

Thank you, Detective Tsukauchi.

No problem. It's way better than making Eri relive it all.

How can we make sure these things don't happen again?

We can't.

We could have Hawks drum up a boatload of new heroes.

Hawks has the power to do that?!

I'm kidding.

Well, let's stop dwelling on that.

The new students begin their classes today.

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

But hero course students from different years don't mix a lot, so they won't see much of...

It's Todoroki!

It's Dynamight!

Can I get your contact info?

What's happening?

I'm a huge fan of yours!

Expel 'em! Expel 'em all!

You're the greatest! Squeee!

Please snap a pic of us!

The first-years are so extra!

I saw the broadcast of his battle with All For One.

I've admired Todoroki ever since the sports festival.

Me too. He's been my guiding light.

Mine too.

And mine.

Admiration is all well and good, but they're people too.

Being hounded by a group would alarm anyone!

I'd talk to you one at a time, though.

They were running in the hallways! Running, Class Rep!

Yes, and we must follow the rules.

They're also not fully recovered yet!

Give them some peace and quiet.

I-I'm sorry! What was I thinking?

I saw them and couldn't help myself!

It's wonderful that you can admit your mistake!

I thought Bakugo liked adoring fans.

And I think it's important not to repeat said mistakes!

Even he can only handle so many at once.

Girls have always kept their distance from Kacchan, so maybe he's not used to this.

That's unexpected.

Like hell it is.

Sure, he did a great job... but I can't abide girls fawning over a delinquent!

Lucky punk!

Get outta here!

We're really sorry!

You're right, it's not unexpected.

Midoriya!

Uh, I saw your fight!

It totally gave me courage!

It really made me think... I've got to do something too!

So, uh, thank you so much!

That's all!

Um...

Sure...

This pain...

Midoriya and Todoroki are one thing!

But I can't handle it if a delinquent's popular with the girls!

My soul cries out in protest!

Well, those battles got way out of hand.

And they were right in the thick of it.

Why wouldn't those kids make a fuss over 'em?
