My Hero Academia (僕のヒーローアカデミア)

"Live till after noon!"

Live TV till after noon!

Today's topic is: "Is sexiness necessary for hero work?"

And so, we have these two in the studio today--

"Pro Hero - Mt. Lady - Quirk: Gigantification"

A rookie hero who debuted just this year, Mt. Lady, and--

Midnight, who is currently teaching at U.A. High School!

"Pro Hero - Midnight"

Thank you both for coming today.

Please, have a seat.

Now, Midnight,

"At debut"

when you first debuted, your costume was so extreme that it created a stir,

eventually leading to the "Regulations for Exposed Skin in Costumes" bill

being submitted to the National Diet.

You're known as a veteran hero who changed the country.

It's still pretty bad right now, though.

Now I'm going for the "ultra-thin" style.

Many say that because of the nature of their Quirks, clothes obstruct their abilities.

It's not a matter of whether or not sexiness is necessary,

but rather that the result of necessity became seen as sexy.

It's just what you like, right?

What's with you?

Trying to pick a fight?

Of course not! It's just, how do I put it--I think you're amazing!

For your age.

Are you trying to show that your only redeeming feature is your youth?

Even though you're not that young?

I'm saying that if the older generation tries too hard,

then it's hopeless for us younger folks!

--You little...! --Hey, watch your hands!

You, too! Oh, jeez!

"Minoru Mineta - Quirk: Pop Off"

--Stop pulling! It'll rip! --It's ripped!

What an incredible episode!

"Gear up for Final Exams"

Okay, that's it for class.

"Pro Hero - Eraser Head - Quirk: Erasure"

There's only one week left until the final exams.

You all are studying properly, right?

I'm sure you already know,

"Izuku Midoriya - Quirk: One For All" "Katsuki Bakugo - Quirk: Explosion"

but it won't just be a written exam. There's also a practical component.

"Tenya Iida - Quirk: Engine" "Ochaco Uraraka - Quirk: Zero Gravity"

Make sure you train your minds and bodies at the same time.

That's all.

"Midterm: 19th/20" "Midterm: 20th/20"

I haven't studied at all!

"Mina Ashido - Quirk: Acid" "Denki Kaminari - Quirk: Electrification"

With the sports festival and internship, I didn't study at all!

"Fumikage Tokoyami - Quirk: Dark Shadow"

It's true that we had one event after another, but...

"Midterm: 14th/20"

"Rikido Sato" "Koji Koda"

"Midterm: 12th/20" "Midterm: 11th/20"

For the midterms, we'd just started school, so they didn't cover much,

so I didn't really have a hard time with them,

but with the back-to-back events and stuff, the finals will be different...

It'll be tough since there's a practical exam, too.

"Midterm: 9th/20"

N-Ninth on the midterms?!

And here I thought you were one of us!

Guys like you are only likable if they're dumb...!

Where's the demand for this?!

The world, I guess.

Ashido, Kaminari!

L-Let's do our best!

"Midterm: 4th/20"

We all want to go to the training camp together, right?

Yes! As class rep, I also have high hopes that you'll all be moved to action!

"Midterm: 2nd/20"

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

"Midterm: 5th/20"

It's pretty hard to fail if you just pay attention in class.

Be careful with your words!

"Momo Yaoyorozu - Quirk: Creation"

"Midterm: 1st/20"

You two, I may be able to be of assistance with the class lectures.

Yao-momo!

I can't help at all with the practical, though...

"Kyoka Jiro - Quirk: Earphone Jack"

I'm not one of those two, but can I join, too?

"Midterm: 7th/20"

I'm having some trouble with quadratic functions...

Huh?

"Hanta Sero - Quirk: Tape"

Sorry, me too! How are you with classical Japanese?

"Midterm: 17th/20"

Huh?

"Mashirao Ojiro - Quirk: Tail"

I'd like to join, too.

"Midterm: 8th/20"

There's a bunch of stuff I don't get...

Please!

Everyone!

Yes, of course!

All right!

Then, let us hold a study session at my residence this weekend!

Seriously? I can't wait to see your house!

"bounce bounce bounce"

Oh, in that case, I must tell Mother and have her open up the hall!

Hall?!

What kind of tea are you all partial to?

Tea?!

In my family, we always drink Harrod's or Wedgwood,

so if you have any preference, let me know!

Of course, you can trust me to help you study, too!

I will definitely show you how I can help!

It's like she casually slapped me with the huge difference in how we were born...

Warm fuzzies... Warm fuzzies...

...but her bounciness is so cute that I don't care.

Warm fuzzies... Warm fuzzies...

What was that again? Harry's? That's fine.

Harrod's, right?

"Eijiro Kirishima - Quirk: Hardening"

"Midterm: 15th/20"

Look at the difference in virtue.

"Midterm: 3rd/20"

I can do it, too! Want me to beat it into you?

Yeah, I'm counting on you!

"Yuga Aoyama - Quirk: Naval Laser" "Mezo Shoji - Quirk: Dupli-Arms"

"Midterm: 10th/20"

Everyone's panicking now,

even though it won't do any good to cram this late in the game.

"Midterm: 18th/20"

Shouldn't you try cramming a little?

What are you talking about?

What is it?

"Lunch Rush's Eatery"

The practical exam, huh?

It's kind of scary since I can't tell what'll be on it.

I don't think it'll be anything crazy.

The written exam questions will come from what we study in class,

so I should be able to manage somehow, but...

"Tsuyu Asui - Quirk: Frog"

"Midterm: 13th/20"

You can manage, huh...?

Seriously, what'll we have to do for the practical exam?

"Toru Hagakure - Quirk: Invisibility" "Midterm: 16th/20"

"It'll be a comprehensive test of everything from first semester."

"Midterm: 6th/20"

That's all Mr. Aizawa would tell us...

Everything we did so far... So, combat training and rescue training,

and then basic training...

In addition to studying, we'll have to keep in good physical conditio--

Oh, sorry. Your head was so big that I accidentally hit it.

"Neito Monoma - Quirk: Copy"

You're from Class B...

Um... Monoma!

How dare you--

I heard you guys met the hero killer.

Just like at the sports festival,

you guys in Class A just have to have all the attention, huh?

But that attention isn't because people have high hopes for you.

It's because you keep attracting trouble, right?

Oh, that's scary.

Someday, the rest of us might also be caught up in the trouble you bring

and become victims as well...

Like getting cursed by the god of pestilence!

Oh, that's sca--

Monoma, that's not funny.

Don't you know what happened to Iida?

"Itsuka Kendo - Quirk: Big Fist"

Kendo!

Sorry, Class A. This guy's heart's just kinda, you know.

His heart...?!

You guys were talking earlier

about how you don't know what's gonna be on the practical exam for the finals, right?

Looks like it'll be combat against robots like in the entrance exam.

What? Really?!

How do you know?

An upperclassman friend of mine told me.

It's kind of cheating, though.

No, it's not cheating.

That's right, I'm sure gathering information ahead of time is also part of the test.

"mutter mutter mutter"

I see, I should've asked some upperclassmen...

Why didn't I realize?

Are you an idiot, Kendou?

We had an information advantage!

This was our chance to get ahead of the detestable Class A!

They're not detestable!

She's like the big sister of Class B, huh?

All right!

Oh, it'll be easy if it's robots!

Yeah, yeah!

You guys look like you'd have a hard time controlling your Quirks against people.

Yeah! But I can just let loose with robots, so it'll be a cinch!

And it'll be a cinch for me to melt them!

Now you just need Yaoyorozu to help you study, and you'll be set for the finals!

We'll definitely be able to go to training camp now!

You may one day have to fight against this great evil...

In order to prepare to face those words,

I have to make everything count from now on.

It doesn't matter if they're people or robots. They're the same if you beat 'em up, right?

What're you idiots talking about it being a cinch for?

--Who're you calling an idiot?! --Shut up!

If you need to control your Quirk, then control it! Idiot!

Hey, Deku!

I don't know if you've figured out how to use your Quirk a little or what,
