In a stunning turn of events, causing an uproar not only here in Japan, but in the home of Heroes itself, America, the unshakable Number 1 All Might has revealed his true form. He has reached the limits of his power and declared he will effectively retire from Heroics!
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpYNibTFqi
Meanwhile, the No. 5 Hero Best Jeanist and the U.A teachers Eraser Head and Vlad King are still hospitalized, but we are assured they will make a full recovery soon.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0dtxfXa8E
As for the No. 33 Hero, and member of the solidly popular Pussy-Cats, Ragdoll, an anomaly from her abduction has rendered her unable to use her quirk and, as such, suspended operation as well!
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1E9LvmDPc
This is in addition to the leader of the group, Mandalay, also retiring from Heroics due to personal reasons. The future of the Pussy-Cats is unknown at this point.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjsZurYeUv
Yes, the newly dubbed “Kamino War” laid a heavy blow on many a Hero, and all in a single night! So what will become of Japan now!? Of Heroes!? That was today’s quick news bite! Stay tuned for the Weather! Back to you, Mr. Kimara…

Nezu turns off yesterday’s news and sighs in his chair. Turning around, he looks at three of his staff.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmuvoelti3
In the middle was a tired but present All Might. To his left was Midnight and Thirteen outside her suit.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVBL1BBNxP
Nezu: “I really hope the media and Mineru don’t regret covering up the deaths. Time won’t make the blow any easier on everyone.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg5IwdmGPG
Everyone already suspected Vlad King wasn’t going to make it. But many thought Best Jeanist would recover. They were wrong.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxpYeKWYyZ
All Might: “But to blame it on the doctors… ”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UDBpXwg5H
The three heroes balled their hands at the upcoming cover-up.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMUmfbhJvA
Nezu: “I understand the logic behind it. Faith in heroes is already at an all-time low. Doesn’t help that the group responsible for this is still at large. So anything to soften the blow is welcome. The deaths will be because of incompetent doctors, not because the Heroes were weak.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJq1YkVmzr
Midnight: “Doesn’t mean we have to like it.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyb6MZYmq4
Thirteen: “I don’t think it’s necessary. But it’s out of our hands.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2PkGdjJbU
All Might: “I’m sorry… ”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yKe5pH8eA
Nezu: “It’s not your fault. Your defeat of All For One is the only reason we’re not going through a bigger crisis. But if you revealed your connections to Tomura and Azrael, that may have done more damage than good.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iRfnhCbID
Yes, the media was interested due to the information they could dig up, but All Might was ‘encouraged’ to keep it to himself. For the sake of the public’s trust.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYKSSPRhIO
Seeing that his words aren’t really helping, Nezu took a breath and smiled. He’ll try another tactic.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhUX3xpE6B
Nezu: “You sacrificed your body to save a tremendous number of lives. As a citizen, a hero, and a principal, I could never thank you enough.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0yCJrJOag
All Might: “I didn’t do it alone.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGC0dXGoF8
Nezu: “Of course, Tornado and Blizzard have helped keep things under control. But the other two negate their efforts, causing sentiments on the Midoriya family to be heated and mixed.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjDrmzmWCI
Midnight: “The media can never be satisfied, can they?”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV85WzRPL1
Nezu: “Unfortunately. That, along with your choice to continue working as a teacher in U.A., has also muddled the discourse. They say the fact that you shifted to U.A was a problem to begin with. And now that you can no longer fight, what would happen if the children get dragged into another villain event?”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9eN53rzny
The principal turned a bit serious as he leaned forward.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumXQKt0ftr
Nezu: “Everyone is quite anxious. That’s why we need to work our very best to fortify the faith in Heroes. The first step, of course, is bringing Tornado and Blizzard onto the staff.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw94rbaN31
Midnight: “I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m happy that they’ll be joining us.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMk8uotbJ7
Thirteen: “Right. This will get worse before it gets better. We’ll need all the help we can get.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCtXu8xNds
Nezu: “Indeed, and the children won’t be absent from the troubles ahead. So we absolutely must protect and raise them more robustly than ever. As such, we’ll be moving ahead with implementing a strategy that I’ve given more thought. But first… how were the home visitations? Of those who are awake.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCRZarWcea
Midnight, who focused on Class A, and Thirteen, who focused on Class B, took a moment before answering.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF3ElcWe1h
Midnight: “Surprising but… ”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwrfgVWkFB
Thirteen: “Mixed.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUnBYForGh
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGaILHBmuk
To Midnight’s surprise, most of Class A were allowed to come back to school without much trouble. Heck, Bakugo’s mother practically threw the boy back into the battlefield. Not like he was upset by that.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoQYWrkRNr
But some needed convincing. The easiest were Uraraka and Shoji. They woke up from the poison not long after the war, and their parents weren’t pleased with the danger they were in.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhipXEmgC2J
But they both refused to stay out of the fight while their friends were still involved. Seeing their bravery, and making sure the school would do more to protect them, the parents relented.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHtp1GDloV
The hardest, though, were Jiro and Momo.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeOwpSSbLO
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBwtAwHu8R
Jiro was standing at the cracked door of the living room, listening to her father speak to Midnight.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWhU9E7cIQ
“Hrmmmm, gotta say, this ain’t rock at all. Her injuries may not have been anything too serious, but c’mon. You want us to let her go back to school after all of that? Right after our one and only daughter was kidnapped?”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsDFXGd9Sq
Midnight: “I don’t blame you for feeling that way, sir. But we’re going to reinforce how we do things, to make sure something like that doesn’t happen again. I know your daughter will make a fine hero if you give her a chance. Please, give her that chance.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx68BPTszY
Jiro grasps her arm, hearing those words. A fine hero? Her?
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1oWrXZOTV
“Those are just words, Miss. We were the ones who had to help her go to sleep after everything.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYF3qH1hi6
The mother spoke up this time.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgWHdfGSL8
“She didn’t get much sleep even with our help.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hh1x0RobB
Midnight: “I-I’m… sorry.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NyBvHeglr
“Sorry, won’t fix anything. We sent her there to be a hero, not a soldier.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJf0Zg9Rj0
Yes, this was nothing like she expected. Sure, being a hero does mean she would have dealt with danger. But this is too much, too soon.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTHsi9DKYr
The death of a teacher, kidnapping, and fighting villains that can level city blocks. So yeah, a part of her didn’t want to go back to school.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4NEsPtdv7
But it was just a small part.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FYssdV4jT
Jiro: “I want to go.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gmbonxZu8
Her parents and Midnight turn to see Jiro bursting through the door, eyes full of determination.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYIm0WpGoa
“Dear… ”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylwFFk3lO8
“Kyoka… ”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhE1uSc4yp
Both of her parents look at her, bewildered by the choice. Considering her condition, they were sure she wanted to give up being a hero. But they were wrong.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvypVGrN8jW
Jiro: “Y-Yeah, I’m… still scared. Terrified even. I-I could have d-died so many times. But… a Hero wouldn’t let that stop them. Not when their friends need her. So yes, despite the danger, I still want to be a Hero.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspocLRjprj
Midnight smiles at the brave young girl while her parents take a moment to recover from the shock. The father sighed, knowing that he would support his daughter no matter what. Seeing the smile on his wife’s face, he knows she feels the same.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx8Kik5UuV
“Alright, but please be more careful and make sure you always have someone with you.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyDID3Ur46
Jiro: “Y-Yes, thank you!”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWS1GqNK9d
Midnight: “And we promise she will be given the utmost protection and education. I know she’ll be a great hero.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2Ligx6dM0
Jiro’s smile broadened as she fully stepped onto the path of heroism, accepting the good, and the bad.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdAwfu0bla
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNAzUineAW
Thanks to Jiro’s own bravery and determination, she was able to rejoin the school. But Momo…
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKwQTJaktz
“No.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA6qJLypyz
Midnight didn’t get a word in. She didn’t even get in the building. Standing outside the gated mansion, she could only take the tongue-lashing from the mother.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaNK4TKoWt
“My daughter will not be returning to U.A. I knew deep down it was a mistake for her to pursue heroics. But after this and other revelations, I’m going to have to put my foot down. She’s going to be home-schooled from now on. That is all.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcDNuDn2I3
That was it, failure. Midnight had no choice but to leave and go to the next student. As for Momo herself, she was confined to her room after her parents retrieved her from the hospital during the night.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HEsaCQiXM
She did manage to sneak out to see Izuku, but a phone call later, and she had to leave. She didn’t tell her boyfriend about the altercation with her mother. How she tried to explain why she had to be a hero, while unable to move well in her bed due to the injuries.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yQCCyC1pI
She couldn’t tell him how she let it slip about their relationship, and the fact that her mother didn’t approve.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8hPZwGd4r
How could she lay another burden on him? Her only regret now is that she couldn’t say goodbye.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4h8nnw8mL
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWx95XTgyy
Nezu: “I see. It is a shame, but at least most of Class A is intact. At least for now, we don’t know what will happen when the comatose students wake up. So, regarding Class B, I assume it didn’t fare as well.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjroEfGXkhx
Thirteen: “No, no, it didn’t.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinqfFzJPaj
It was gutted in comparison.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJ1cHHwtzV
Kosei Tsuburaba and Juzo Honenuki weren’t allowed to return at all. Pony Tsunotori and Kinoko Komori, despite still being comatose, were taken out as well by their parents.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5pWtf6vEK
If the other hospitalized students leave, that would be most of Class B gone.
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JWXN8FL1X
All Might: “I… don’t blame them. I’m surprised so many stayed.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8x7VedrBgR
Nezu: “But this does pose a problem. We have to fill some of the lost positions. Thankfully, there are three that are eager to do so.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2aAqNCWA7
Thirteen: “One of them is from the Support Department, though. Wouldn’t it be better for her to stay?”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mEK1mbdDw
All Might: “I agree! It would be safer.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcX9OTWjUS
Nezu: “She insisted, and I’m sure she can offer much to both classes. While giving them a more direct access to the Support Department.”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx8iJM8jRb
All Might: “I suppose… ”
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshYZoMPDUP
All Might: ‘I hope you know what you’re doing, Melissa.’
