My Hero Academia (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 25 - Encounter - full transcript

[KATSUKI] When I was
watching that ice guy,

I realized I couldn't beat
him in a head‐to‐head fight.

Damn it! Damn it, damn it!

Enjoy that win, Deku.

You won't get another!

I'm just getting
started! Got that?

I'm gonna end up
the number‐one hero

no matter what!

[TODOROKI]
Midoriya.

Know that I will beat you.

[KATSUKI] I, uh, just
wanna say I'm gonna win.

Bastard!

Your declaration of war
was to the wrong person!

We're not done!

Huh?

We're gonna be the indisputable
champions of the game!

Die!

[KATSUKI]
Stun Grenade!

Bakugo is the winner
of this match!

[PRESENT MIC] That means
our final fight will be

between Todoroki and Bakugo!

[TODOROKI'S MOTHER]
And Shoto‐‐

That child's left side sometimes
looks unbearable to me.

All I can see is his father.

So come at me
with all you've got!

It's yours!

‐‐[tea kettle sqealing]
‐‐Your Quirk, not his!

[TODOROKI'S MOTHER gasps]

[TODOROKI]
How did this happen?

I pushed her out of my mind.

I tried not to think about her.

Then that fight with Midoriya...

[TODOROKI]
Mom...

Hey, what the hell
are you doing in here?

This is my space to‐‐

Crap, this is waiting
room number two?

[KATSUKI] All right, fine,
so I may have walked

into the wrong room.

But don't think that
means I'm not gonna be

on top a' my game, you got that?

You better bring all you
got to this, Icy Hot!

Midoriya.

Huh?

[TODOROKI]
He said the same thing.

That fool.

Instead of trying to win
the match himself,

he focused on breaking my walls.

You guys were childhood
friends, right?

Was he like that
when you were kids?

So helpful?

[grunting]

[IZUKU]
Kacchan!

I couldn't just stand
there and watch you die!

Are you all right? Are you hurt?

[KATSUKI] What does he have
to do with any of this?

It's all between you and me now.

Focus on the match.

That's the only thing
I give a damn about.

Whatever your family problems
are, whatever you're feeling‐‐

None of that crap
matters, just make sure

you don't hold back.
Use your flames on me.

I want everyone to know
I beat you at your best.

[KATSUKI] Let's see him try
and use his powers against me

when I'm bombing every
inch of the stadium.

I'll show the world what
a champion looks like.

[PRESENT MIC]
Welcome to the final battle

of the UA High School
Sports Festival!

In just a moment here, we'll see

which first years
come out on top!

[PRESENT MIC] Yes, it all
comes down to this, folks!

From the hero course,
Shoto Todoroki.

[CROWD cheers]

[PRESENT MIC] Versus his
classmate, Katsuki Bakugo!

[CROWD cheers]

[PRESENT MIC]
Now begin!

[KATSUKI]
Damn it!

[PRESENT MIC] Todoroki starts
with a crazy ice blast!

Bakugo seems to have
been completely buried!

Is it possible we've already
got a winner down there?

This isn't like when
he attacked Sero.

The ice just now
was more controlled.

He's being cautious.

[muffled explosions]

What's that terrifying sound?

It's gotta be Bakugo's doing.

[muffled explosions]

He used his explosions
to tunnel through the ice

like some kinda mole man!

These two are insane.

You've got some
pretty powerful attacks.

[KATSUKI]
But you're a bad aim.

[KATSUKI]
Try harder!

[grunts]

He dodged his right
side with a blast!

Awsesome.

[KATSUKI] Are you
underestimating me? Idiot!

[PRESENT MIC] Todoroki surfs
an ice wave to avoid

going out of bounds.
Looks like fun.

Use your left side.
Do it, Shoto!

[TODOROKI grunts]

[KATSUKI growls]

[KATSUKI]
Stop screwing around.

What, do you think I'm
not worthy of your fire?

[AIZAWA] Bakugo timed his
explosions and grabbed

Todoroki's left side on purpose.
He's done his research.

His aptitude for this
becomes more apparent

with every fight.

Interesting!

[AIZAWA]
Todoroki's doing well so far,

but his attacks are too simple.

It almost seems like
he lost his spark

after the match with Midoriya.

You bastard!

I'll tell you what'll happen
if you make a fool outta me.

I'll kill you!

[gasps]

I don't want there
to be any doubt

that I'm the best
student at the festival.

That's only possible if you
come at me as hard as you can!

There's no point
if you don't fight me

with the same power
you used against Deku.

If you don't wanna win this,
why are you even here?

Show everyone you're
trying to destroy me!

I want it, too. I'll be a hero!

[TODOROKI]
I'm sorry, Bakugo.

Since I fought Midoriya,
I'm unsure of so much.

Whether or not I
did the right thing.

What my left side means to me.

[IZUKU] C'mon, Todoroki!
Don't give up! Do your best!

[TODOROKI]
Midoriya!

That stupid nerd.

[KATSUKI]
Hell yeah. That's it!

[KATSUKI] If you're gonna
face me, you can't half‐ass it!

Try everything you
can to defeat me.

Don't you dare hold back!

[KATSUKI]
Howitzer Impact!

[PRESENT MIC]
Who‐ho‐ho‐hoa!

Bakugo combined
speed and rotation

with a huge blast like
he used against Uraraka!

He turned himself
into a human missile!

Todoroki didn't fire
off the flame attack

that wowed us in his
match with Midoriya!

So what has become of
our two top competitors?

Huh?

[KATSUKI] You decided
not to use your fire?

[KATSUKI]
No.

[KATSUKI]
Hey...

Hey!

You stop messing around!

This isn't a real win for me
unless you try harder!

It can't end this
way. Now get up!

Don't‐‐

[gasps]

[MIDNIGHT]
Todoroki is out of bounds.

That means...
Bakugo is the winner!

[CROWD cheers]

[PRESENT MIC]
And, with that,

the final match
is officially over!

The first‐year champion of
the UA Sports Festival is...

Katsuki Bakugo from Class 1‐A!

[CROWD cheers]

[MIDNIGHT] The first‐year
students have completed

all of the events for
the UA Sports Festival.

Now it's time to relax and
enjoy the awards ceremony.

[CROWD cheers]

[KATSUKI muffled grunting]

Whoa...

What the heck?

[KIRISHIMA] He's been goin'
nuts ever since he woke up.

[KIRISHIMA] Man, Bakugo.
Pull yourself together.

He's acting like a feral animal.

[KATSUKI muffled scream]

[MIDNIGHT]
Tenya Iida actually shares

the third‐place
award with Tokoyami.

But, unfortunately, he had
to leave for family reasons.

Gotta love those familial bonds.

A media darling?

Too bad Iida couldn't be
here. He was so excited.

Yeah.

[TENYA]
Uraraka. Midoriya.

I know that this is sudden,
but I have to leave now.

A villain got my older brother.

[IZUKU, OCHACO gasp]

Wait, you're saying
Ingenium is hurt?

[TENYA]
Yes.

Do they think he's
gonna be okay?

I don't know many details yet.

That's why I have
to go right away.

[IZUKU gasps]

[TENYA] Ingenium is
an unmatched commander

who honors the hero code.

As the second oldest Iida son,

I strive to be just like him.

[IZUKU]
Ingenium... Please be all right.

For Iida's sake. You have to be!

Now, let's break
out the hardware.

Of course, there's
only one person

worthy of distributing
the awards.

[ALL MIGHT laughing]

All Might's up there!

[ALL MIGHT]
Citizens!

‐‐I am here with the medals!
‐‐[MIDNIGHT] All Might is

‐‐I am here with the medals!
‐‐the number one hero!

Ruined that, didn't I?

[ALL MIGHT]
Tch.

[AUDIENCE 25B] This group
of first‐years is so lucky!

[AUDIENCE 25C]
I can't believe they've got

the best hero teaching them.

So, now that you're
here, All Might,

why don't you start
the presentation?

[ALL MIGHT laughs]
Young Tokoyami. Congratulations.

You showed great
strength out there.

Your words humble me, sir.

[ALL MIGHT]
However.

You've more training to do
if you're going to be able

to fight against different
kinds of villains.

You're not going to be able
to rely on your Quirk

in every battle you face.

Yes, sir.

Young Todoroki. Congratulations!

I'm assuming there's a reason

you didn't use your left side.
Though it cost you the final.

Midoriya opened my eyes
during our match,

but then I started
to doubt myself.

I think I now understand
a little about

why you're so interested in him.

[TODOROKI] I want to be
the kind of hero you are,

but my path isn't as clear
as I thought it was.

I have a lot to think about.

And I still need to
settle things with someone.

Very soon.

I've never seen
this sort of look

on your face before.

I won't ask for details,
but trust yourself.

I'm sure you'll work things out.

[TODOROKI]
Right.

[ALL MIGHT]
And now, Young Bakugo.

This is a little much.

Well, you did what
you said you'd do

in the pledge. You're
true to your word.

[KATSUKI growling]
All Might.

Winning first place
this way doesn't prove

that I'm the best one here!

Even if the world
considers me the winner,

I refuse to accept it like this!

[ALL MIGHT]
Look at that face!

[clears throat] In a world
where we're constantly

being compared to one another.

There are very few
who can keep their eyes

focused on the top spot.
You're one of them.

[KATSUKI growling]

[ALL MIGHT]
Still scary!

[ALL MIGHT]
Please accept this medal.

Even if you have to
think of it as a scar.

Something you'll never forget.

I don't want that
piece of garbage!

[ALL MIGHT]
C'mon, now.

Get that trash
offa me, you idiot!

[ALL MIGHT]
There.

[CROWD cheers]

Here they are!

The winners of this
year's sports festival!

But listen closely.

[ALL MIGHT] Any of you first
years could have ended up

standing on these podiums.

Think about what
you've done today.

You've challenged
each other, learned,

and climbed even closer toward
your goals of being pros.

I think the next generation
of heroes is proving to be

our most promising one yet!

So I have one more thing to say.

I want to hear everyone
yell it with me.

You know what it is.

‐‐Thanks, everyone,
‐‐[AUDIENCE] Plus Ultra!

‐‐for your hard work!
‐‐[AUDIENCE] Plus Ultra!

[STUDENTS]
What?

That was the perfect time to
say "Plus Ultra," All Might!

[ALL MIGHT] Well, yeah,
I guess, but everyone

did such a good job!

[IZUKU] Your friend can
also be a worthy opponent.

The sports festival
showed us that.

We learned a lot about
each other and ourselves.

[AIZAWA]
Nice work.

You have the next two days
of school off to recuperate.

I'm sure the pros
who watched the festival

will wanna recruit some of you.

We'll look over the draft
forms and update you

when you return.

Get some rest.

You still have
a lot of training.

[STUDENTS]
Yes, sir!

[IZUKU]
After that,

the atmosphere around the
school started to change.

Even though it was
gradual at first.

[NURSE 25A] Please don't
run in the hallways!

[TENYA panting]

[TENYA]
Mom!

Oh, Tenya!

How is Tensei doing?

Brother!

[TENYA'S MOM]
Tenya, keep your voice down

and put on a mask!

[DOCTOR 25A]
Uh...

The anesthesia's worn off,
but he's still in and out.

If the surgery had
happened any later,

I don't know if he
would have made it.

Little brother? Is that you?

[TENYA'S MOM sobs]

Tensei. You're going to be fine!

Sorry. I'm supposed
to be someone

you can look up to and
respect, but look at me.

[INGENIUM]
Tenya... Little brother...

I'm so sorry. I failed you.

[TENYA]
Tensei!

[FUYUMI]
Shoto, where are you going?

[TODOROKI]
The hospital.

What? Hold on, why?

You can't just visit. Not
without telling Dad, right?

[TODOROKI]
Whatever.

But why go now?

Why see her after all this time?

I'll be back.

[BOY 25A]
It went "bam" and blew him away!

[MOTHER 25A]
Hm? That's amazing!

[BOY 25A]
It was so cool, Mom!

Bam! Crash!

[MOTHER 25A]
Sounds like you had a good time.

[BOY 25A]
Yeah!

[TODOROKI'S MOTHER] Mom,
I feel like I'm going crazy.

I can't take it anymore.

Every day, the children
seem more like him.

And Shoto‐‐

That child's left side sometimes
looks unbearable to me.

All I can see is his father.

I can't raise him anymore.

I want to run away
from this life.

[TODOROKI]
Ever since that day,

I thought the sight of me
would cause my mother

nothing but pain.
So I never visited.

But we will always be
bound to each other.

By blood. By our
history with my father.

That's why...

If I'm ever going to use
this body and these powers

to become a hero...

If I'm going to give it
everything I have...

[sighs]

[TODOROKI'S MOTHER]
It's okay to use your power

to become who you want to be.

[TODOROKI] If I'm going to
become the hero I want to be,

I need to see her.

There's so much we
need to talk about.

Hello, Mom.

[TODOROKI]
I'll rescue her from this place.

No matter what.

[TODOROKI] That's my first step
to getting back on track.

It's what I have to do.

[OCHACO] What am I gonna
have for lunch today?

Something cheap. Uh...

Oh. Mochi sounds good.

[OCHACO]
Hm.

[OCHACO]
That's weird. It's not locked.

[OCHACO'S MOM and DAD]
Ochaco!

[screams]

There you are!

[OCHACO]
Dad? Mom?

What are you guys doing here?

We came to throw you a party.

[OCHACO'S DAD] We had to come
after watching our daughter

make such an awesome
effort on tv!

Wait, what?

But what about work‐‐did you
come on the bullet train?

When? How?

I can't believe you're here!

[IZUKU'S MOM]
Seven! Isn't that crazy?

[IZUKU]
Well. Yeah...

That's how many
times I passed out

after the cavalry battle.

I'm pretty sure the last two
were because of dehydration.

Kinda sounds like you
were way more heroic

than I was out there.

Don't mock your mother.

Suddenly finding out you
had a power like that‐‐

I'm glad you have a Quirk,

but did it have
to be so dangerous?

Yeah, it's the weirdest thing!

Apparently it's not
medically impossible

or anything like that,
I'm just a late bloomer,

and, anyway, now I have
a Quirk of my own...

[IZUKU'S MOM]
Baby, I'm so happy for you!

Of course I'll
keep supporting you.

But I am still your mother,
so I'm going to worry, too.

[IZUKU]
Mm‐hm.

[IZUKU] I keep putting
everything I have into

achieving my dreams.

But I can't forget
that there are people

who are concerned about me.

If I want to be
a hero who smiles

while living up to
everyone's expectations,

I can't give up.

I need to figure out
how to use One For All

and make it my own.

[IZUKU]
And then...

...maybe I'll finally
be able to say it.

"I am here!"

[IZUKU'S MOM]
So!

Do you wanna watch
the festival recording?

It's in HD!

[IZUKU] How about I watch
it by myself later.

[KATSUKI] Die! Stupid
weakling mouth germs!

[KATSUKI'S MOM] Katsuki,
you can't wake up at noon

and start yelling!

[IZUKU]
Here's the preview!

[AIZAWA] At the next
hero informatics class,

we'll be coming up
with code names.

They'll be used in your
upcoming internships.

[IZUKU]
This is gonna be so exciting!

[AIZAWA] Your name should
show who you are

and what kind of hero you
wanna be in the future.

[IZUKU] It's obvious what
mine should be, but at

my current level, I don't have
the right to call myself that.

[AIZAWA]
Hurry it up, kid.

[IZUKU]
Ah, yes, sir!

Next time: "Time to
Pick Some Names"!

[AIZAWA] After this, most of
the students in your class

will have code names.

[IZUKU]
Most?

[AIZAWA]
Go beyond!

[AIZAWA, IZUKU]
Plus Ultra!
