Awesome / One for All and Eight for the Ninth

As is the case with all pages detailing Awesome Moments, Spoilers Off

Main Story

• Using five percent Full Cowl, Izuku saves a lot of people during the Entrance Exam, and then, when he sees Ochako in danger, unleashes everything he has to destroy the robot. This allows him to break All Might's Entrance Exam record.
• Izuku shutting up Bakugo by starting Full Cowl.
• During the Heroes vs Villains class, it only takes Izuku and Momo ten minutes to not only set up an amazing repertoire of traps, but also multiple lamps to prevent Fumikage from using his Quirk to the maximum and a double-layered Kansas City Shuffle.
• Kinoko shows off how lethal her powers can be by winning her bout of the Heroes vs Villains class without having to get close to the heroes.
• At the USJ, pretty much everyone gets to be amazing when it comes to fighting the villains.
  • All Might manages to hold off the four Nomu Shigaraki has brought while Eraserhead and Hound Dog bring down all the villains in the plaza. Then each of the teachers fights off a Nomu on their own, with All Might finishing his off with a blow to the head.
  • Izuku sets up his canon plan, with Ibara tying down all the villains with her vines. Then he saves Tsuyu from Shigaraki and punches the flying Nomu away with so much strength that Shigaraki is sent flying from the wind pressure. He manages to unlock Float, destroys the flying Nomu's wings and then destroys it by using it to open a trench. And Tsuyu saves him from the eyeless Nomu by dragging him back with her tongue (unlocking their bond).
  • Momo opens a hole in the USJ doors to let Tenya and Toru escape to warn the teachers, while Setsuna and Kyoka hold Kurogiri off. Momo then saves Thirteen, and shoots a crossbow bolt into the eyeless Nomu's brain - allowing Denki to shock it into unconsciousness.
  • Eijiro and Tetsutetsu easily defeat all the villains attacking them.
  • Fumikage and Reiko reduce the villains attacking in the Ruins Zone to shivering wrecks by using their powers to make it a true house of horrors. Then they trap Kurogiri and nearly defeat him.
  • Kinoko proves once more how much of a powerhouse she is when she quickly takes out most of the villains in the Downpour Zone with her shrooms - and Koji complements her by sending U.A.'s rat colony against the ones that have avoided that.
  • Pony uses her horns to carry Mina around so she can rain acid on the villains, while Itsuka punches out anyone dumb enough to get too close.
  • Yui and Ochako combine their Quirks in the Landslide Zone to create a huge avalanche that is quite possibly one of the most (if not the most) devastating of the day.
• The interclass training shows off a few more awesome moments:
  • Todoroki traps Izuku in a glacier. Izuku promptly destroys the glacier from inside and defeats Todoroki.
  • Monoma thought he could intimidate Kinoko. Kinoko grew a shroom in his throat.
  • Mineta actually comes close to winning his fight with Momo, but makes the mistake of trying to grope her. Momo promptly tases the pervert and drops a stink bomb-pepper spray combo on him.
  • Ochako manages to defeat Bakugo after his attempt to use his grenades on her unlocks a new level of her bond to Izuku, letting her dodge the attack and throw Bakugo out of bounds.
    • Before the fight, Bakugo makes an attempt at trash talk... and her reply leaves him in Stunned Silence.
• During the Obstacle Race, Izuku wins even though he doubled back to help knock off the Zero Pointers Todoroki had frozen.
• Izuku is used to people's eyes glazing over when he starts mumbling up a storm, with only a few even able to partially respond to his comprehensive and complex thought process. So when Endeavor is able to give a complete and intelligent response to one, Izuku and the vestiges all undergo Stunned Silence in response.
  • Props to Izuku though, because when he does collect his thoughts, he gives Endeavor the mother of all armor piercing questions.
    Izuku: If someone could become the Number One Hero through strength alone, wouldn’t you have already reached that goal?
• In her match with Todoroki, Ochako not only manages to dodge his glacier, she uses her Quirk on the glacier and turns it against Todoroki. She almost won her match, losing only because she strained her Quirk and the drawbacks kicked in.
• Izuku manages to convince Todoroki to go all out, and Izuku still manages to win the Sports Festival!
  • The way he does it is also awesome. When he realizes Todoroki won't use his fire side, Izuku uses Full Cowl: Invisible Mode (which gives him an output equal to half its maximum power) and is still easily dodging everything Todoroki throws at him, calling him out for not realizing how his unwillingness to use his full Quirk could get him or innocent people killed.
  • And, as the finisher, the explosion from the combination of Izuku's and Todoroki's last attack is strong enough that Todoroki is shot through an ice wall he had just created, while Izuku holds himself into the ring when Blackwhip gets unlocked.
  • Between the speech and his performance, Izuku manages to bring inspiration to a lot of people in Japan that they can pursue their dreams even if they don't have the best Quirks for it.
• Izuku gets to rip into Detnetrat's CEO (unknown to him, the leader of the Meta Liberation Army) for the shoddy work done on his female classmates' hero costumes and their Quirkist policies. The man, who had thought he could talk Izuku into accepting a sponsorship deal, is forced to leave after being thoroughly humiliated by him and Momo.
• The moment Sir Nighteye demands Izuku to give One for All to Mirio, Izuku immediately fires back that he's not going to let him kill Mirio.
  • This is followed by an absolutely blistering "The Reason You Suck" Speech in which Izuku painstakingly dismantles all of Nighteye's intended avenues of attack, finishing it all off with this capper:
    Izuku: But, if you don't back down knowing that giving Mirio One For All is a death sentence? Then I might as well leave here right now, because there'd be nothing you can teach me that I want to learn.
• When Sir Nighteye finally checks what social media is saying about Izuku, he learns that for all he insisted no one would ever accept Izuku as the next Symbol of Peace, a great deal of the public already does. And most of those who don't are the types of people who had made him so disgusted with social media that he swore off using it unless absolutely necessary for an active investigation.
• The moment Izuku realizes how dangerous Overhaul is (and noticing his Quirk requires using his hands) he quickly wields Blackwhip and restrains him into being unable to escape.
• Tenya manages to save Native's life by dodging Stain's sword and getting the man away. If Stain had not managed to cut him with one of his knives, Tenya would have successfully escaped with the Pro Hero - and even then, he distracts the Hero Killer long enough for Shoto Todoroki to appear and Curb Stomp Stain. This causes Stain to regard him as a potential "true hero".
• To prove that villains can still get their moments, when All for One comes to steal Overhaul's Quirk, Overhaul is Defiant to the End - using his Quirk on All for One just as it is getting stolen, even ripping his hands away from the rivets they have been impaled with. While he is unable to actually kill him, he manages to deform his hands so much that All for One is unable to use Overhaul - not even when he slices his hands off and uses Super Regeneration, which only grows them back just as deformed.
• Izuku and Ochako end up unlocking the third Bond tier during their end of term fight against All Might... which ends up letting Ochako use One for All, and by proxy Float. And even though she can only use 1%, it's enough that her Quirk evolves so that it can add weight instead of just removing it.
• The entirety of 1-A passes their final exams by working together. From Tenya and Fumikage combining their Quirks to outright fly to Mina and Denki using an electrified trail of acid to fry Nezu's crane, everyone finds creative ways to win. Afterwards, they're congratulated for using the fact they could communicate with each other and both Melissa and Mei in order to win, with Aizawa stating that they used every advantage to its fullest.
• When Danger Sense flares up at the mall, Izuku quickly presses his panic button and then manages to keep Shigaraki's attention on him long enough for The Cavalry to arrive.
  • Shigaraki attempts to attack a pregnant woman when he rejects Izuku's offer to change sides, only for Yui to step between them - and then Izuku steps in to prevent Shigaraki from killing Yui. Fortunately, Shigaraki's Quirk fails to work, and the distraction is more than enough for Nejire to blast Shigaraki away from Izuku.
• In spite of David's efforts to attempt to stop the attack on I-Island, Wolfram and his mercenaries still get into the island... only to be immediately identified, persecuted and quickly defeated by Star and Stripe.
• Testing shows that Momo's Quirk is ridiculously busted, with the 1% of One For All she has access to taking it even further: her whole Cast from Calories shtick is her Quirk using her lipids to essentially make things via nuclear fusion (sans the radiation, of course), with One For All letting her scan, store, and perfectly replicate anything inorganic that she can touch, with the power stockpile of OFA taking up all the slack for the creation process. Not without Yoichi making an Unlimited Blade Works joke, though.
  • Which leads to Izuku having a "Eureka!" Moment based around his access to Creation: he uses it to charge a strand of his hair with 0.25% of One For All's power stockpile and gives it to Melissa. He outright makes a Quirk. Something only All For One and Garaki have really done, and even then, their method was just fusing multiple Quirks together into new ones.
• The fight between Izuku and Tigre. After several fights where he easily fights off his adversaries, Izuku here is not only overwhelmed by Tigre's skill and power and forced to change tactics several times, he actually ends yielding - and Tigre admits later that he was also about to yield.
• At the beginning of the summer training camp, Kinoko utterly trivializes Pixie-Bob's golems by covering them in mushrooms, reducing them to nothing more than clumps of loose dirt.
  Kinoko: We’re in a dark, warm, humid forest. I’m the queen here...
• Instead of slogging their way through the forest, 1-A finds an alternative: Momo works with Mei and Melissa to build an entirely functional helicopter capable of carrying half of the class, while the rest fly along aided by Izuku (using Float and Blackwhip), Ochako (with Zero Gravity) and Pony (with her enlarged horns).
• Aizawa has Izuku do the softball throw as a test. He manages to throw it at almost 4 kilometres away, revealing that he's already able to use 42 percent of One for All.
• When Ryouji and Isamu joke that would rather be bonded with Toga than with Yui or Nejire, Izuku deadpans if they are keeping this comments for themselves. After they confirm so, Izuku calmly says that if he catches either of them making fun of his girlfriends again, he will find a way to get inside the Vestige Realm and kill them off for real. Both edgelords quickly shut up and promise not do it again. Doubles as heartwarming.
• Enji unintentionally obliterates his eldest son's plans to reveal his crimes by doing so himself in a press conference during the summer training camp arc.
• When faced with Muscular, the man who murdered his parents, Kota stands between him and Eri, and helps Izuku defeat him by distracting the killer.
• When Izuku finally meets All For One face to face, he shows zero fear of the man, despite the villain specifically using a Quirk designed to make others fear him. On top of that, he actually unsettles All For One by calling him by his real name, Mugen Shigaraki.
• Mugen's attempt to steal One For All from Izuku instead results in the Vestiges and the Polycule destroying or stealing thirty-four of Mugen's stolen Quirks, including Search and Overhaul. The event leaves Mugen outright terrified of making another attempt without using one of his contingency plans.
• The girls level up their bonds simultaneously, allowing them to teleport to Kamino at the same time. They join the battle between Izuku and the League of Villains - and they mop them.
  • Yui and Ochako tag team on Toga, not even letting up on the assault after the latter transforms into Izuku - which connects Toga to Bonding and forces her to face the reality of how what she does affects others.
  • Melissa takes on Tomura, blasting him with her lightning and punching him hard enough to send him flying.
  • Toru turns Chronostasis (Overhaul's right hand man) into her personal punching bag, taking advantage of him being unable to see her to pummel him non-stop.
  • Nejire fights the flying Nomu on scene with ease, until Ochako touches it, forcing it into the ground.
  • Dabi and Canopy team up. Unfortunately for them, so do Momo and Mei, with the former constantly spraying firefighting foam to counter Dabi's flames while the latter unleashes More Dakka in the form of a rubber bullet gatling gun with Bottomless Magazines, shattering Canopy's shield and rendering him unconscious.
  • Tsuyu fights Gluttony, slashing his face with her new bone claws and causing him to run away - to attack Izuku, who instinctively uses Overhaul to take out the villain's constant hunger. Witnessing this causes Chronostasis to turn on Tomura, which prompts All for One to kill the Yakuza man and send Tomura, Dabi, and Canopy away.
• Izuku quickly heals all the injured heroes on scene, handling his new Quirks with ease.
• Due to a combination of Eri's Rewind healing his wounds, One for All hitting the Quirk Singularity, and all the Bonds, All Might is able to draw on the completed One for All and implements his predecessors' Quirks into his United States of Smash and just fucks All For One UP!
  • The injuries that AFO get are brutally awesome. Thanks to OFA empowering his attack and using Izuku's bond, Laser Disc was allowed to cut through AFO before the Regeneration Quirks he still possessed could kick in. End result? AFO is effectively a quadriplegic. His spine is severed, disabling his leg muscles, and his hands are useless lumps of meat from his ill fated encounter with Chisaki.
• Between Eri's Rewind and Izuku giving him a weaker version of One for All (about 20% of what All Might originally had) along with some other Quirks, even All For One's attempts to physically break All Might and remove him from the equation have failed. The heroes not only won decisively, the League of Villains has been left literally and metaphorically crippled.
• Izuku can now safely hit with 55% of the improved One for All, and Shock Absorption and Super Regeneration allow him to go beyond that. He's even able to imitate All Might's Texas Smash, destroys a robot bigger than the Zero Pointer in the process, and annihilates the last robot in the test.
  • Best part is what was thrown at him was something the Second Years have to contend with for their end of the year exams, even if by technical standpoints, he would have flunked it, because of waived off concerns for collateral damage.
• When the Provisional License Test begins, all the other schools begin their planned U.A. Crush - only for this to completely go up in flames when Ochako rips the ground into a flying platform the entire class can ride.
• Several Seiai Academy students, led by Saiko Intelli, bunker up in a building, which is attacked by Fumikage, Kinoko, Koji, and Reiko. Intelli quickly builds up a plan that could have allowed her and her classmates to claim victory, but she makes a critical mistake: not taking Koji's Quirk into account. Koji unleashes a Biblical plague's worth of insects into the building, allowing the four 1-A students to make short work of Seiai's students, culminating in Kinoko wiping out Intelli in seconds, complete with a Shout-Out Pun Bond One-Liner.
  Saiko Intelli: No... No, you can't have beaten me... I'm smarter than you!
  Kinoko: Maybe you could outsmart me, but I doubt you can outsmart a bolete.
• Mei keeps track of all of 1-A's results, simultaneously.
• The four above, along with Kyoka, Itsuka, Pony, and Denki, have passed the exam quickly. When the others notice that they aren't limited to six balls, they go Plus Ultra. Thirty seconds later, the fourteen remaining 1-A students have mowed through two hundred other students.
• When Gang Orca attacks the exam as part of his fake Villain stunt, while Izuku and several others lead the "victims" to safety, Tsuyu takes on (and wins against) the Number Ten Hero, while Yui holds Gang Orca's "minions" back with TsuRuleGi in hand.
  • What's more, Yui's new support gear includes a special belt and buckle that expands into a battlesuit, turning her into a full-on Henshin Hero. A situation that brings her no small amount of joy.
    Yui: (thinking) A single monstrous looking elite combatant fighting with an army of faceless, identical foot soldiers. It’s finally happening.
• Izuku, after getting his ass kicked by Mirko in a sparring match, sasses her into taking him on as an intern for his second semester work study.
• When Mirko and Izuku have their first training match, Mirko keeps pressing Izuku's Berserk Button. Izuku ends up punching Mirko so hard she ends up embedded into a wall.
  • Points to her, despite her generally abrasive attitude, she does apologize for doing so afterwards.
• Quirk Understanding gets a minor one in chapter 52. Due to One for All's connection to All for One, it is able to exploit it and knows EVERY. SINGLE. QUIRK. All for One currently possesses. Meaning that, now, Izuku and co have information on how to counter him in the future.
  • Even better: in the next chapter, Izuku manages to exploit the connection and enters the mindscape, where he finds a lot of vestiges. Unfortunately, he can't pull the vestiges to his side... but what he, the Torchbearers, and the Ennead create in the mindscape can go to the other side. Meaning that they can outright weaken All for One without him knowing it - particularly since Eidetic Memory's vestige allows himself to be killed, which keeps All for One from realizing he's losing Quirks. By the time Mugen eventually catches on, he's lost roughly a third of his stockpile, just under five hundred quirks.
• Mr. Compress, Gentle Criminal and La Brava team up - and publish a video of the "The Reason You Suck" Speech Charger (Isamu Mitsunami, the Third Torchbearer) unleashed on Destro after defeating him.
• Izuku has his rematch with Tigre while at Kuraudo Island... and it's no contest, because Izuku's powered up so much that he manages to bring Tigre down in two strikes.
• When Marcus Cuvier realizes who caused the animals to frenzy, the only ones in position to intercept are the 1-A and Santo Kaliman students. Izuku comes up with a crazy idea: Momo, Mei, and Melissa craft a sphere, Yui makes it large enough for everyone to get in, and Izuku does a Fastball Special precise enough that he hits Dawson from several miles away!
• Dawson hits Koji's Berserk Button hard enough that he drops an Atomic F-Bomb and it kickstarts his Quirk Awakening. While 1-A and Santo Kaliman pile on Dawson, Koji uses his new powers to telepathically call on every animal in several miles around and aim them at Dawson.
• When a bunch of frenzied rodent-like creatures infiltrate the facility and attempt to attack Eri and Zuzu-chan, the baby Zuniceratops manifests a Quirk that creates a forcefield, protecting herself and Eri from the creatures long enough for Shouto to freeze them in place.
• When the surrounded Dawson attempts to transform into a Dreadnoughtus to escape, Clever Girl makes a Gorgosaurus grow three times its size to maul him. While Dawson tries to change forms to escape, the Megatherium that adopted Koji demonstrates another of Koji's powers by getting energy from him... and getting a badass Super Mode that allows it to crush the Evil Poacher, no matter what transformations he tries.
• When Nine and his minions attack Nabu Island, 1-A and 1-B quickly swing into fighting against the villains threatening the civilians. By the time the Ennead pops in to help Izuku deal with Nine, all of said minions have already been put down for the count.
• Inko and Toshinori "vworp" when they both make identical motions to save another's life from Mummy's puppets: Inko pulling an axe away from where it was about to attack Sato and Toshinori pulling his fist back to punch a stop sign that was about to attack Inko.
• Nine ambushes the children and grabs Mahoro, threatening to kill her if Katsuma doesn't let his Quirk be stolen. Eri distracts the villain from Izuku dropping out from the air, freeing Mahoro and Megaton Punching him across the park.
  • Shoto and Monoma jump in to freeze Nine into a glacier, only for the villain to break out with one of his Quirks. This allows the rest of Izuku's team to pile in, with Kyoka blasting him so hard she smacks him with his own Air Wall - and Aoyama brings Nine to his knees with a full Navel Laser blast.
  • As the children run away, Nine uses a tornado to toss Shoto and Akira away, with Izuku holding in with Blackwhip while Monoma uses his copy of Shoto's Quirk to freeze himself to the ground while blasting concentrated jets of fire. Kyoka and Reiko grab the children, and Aoyama fires a blast to take the girls and the children away from Nine.
  • Nine manages to disorient Izuku enough that he can touch him. Monoma, fighting off his feelings of inadequacy, does a Diving Save to push Izuku away - and when Nine attempts to steal Copy, Monoma instinctively counters by copying All for One and starting to steal Nine's Quirks. This causes a loopback that eventually explodes... and Monoma comes out of the other side with all of Nine's Quirks. Which he shows by first protecting Izuku from lightning, and then firing his own lightning at Nine.
  • Nine summons a cyclone, trapping Izuku and Monoma, who is unable to counter Nine's control of the weather. Izuku responds by firing a Laser Disc and a Hadoken, shattering Air Wall and causing Nine to lose concentration.
  • In spite of everything, Nine is still standing and able to fight. That's the moment the Ennead pops in, ready to tear a new asshole into Nine.
  • Nejire begins by raining energy over Nine, keeping him from repairing his suit. And when she stops, Yui takes over and stomps on him so hard that she breaks his Air Wall.
  • Mei fires a homing missile to fly around another Air Wall, forcing Nine to drop it and allowing Ochako to grab him with her cables to toss him in the air - where Yui crushes him between her hands with her new finishing move, Flyswatter.
  • Nejire promptly fires a new move, Giga Drill Breaker, to rip through another Air Wall, causing Nine to painfully land in front of Ochako - who smacks him down with an enormous boulder working as a flail, Tunguska Hammer, allowing Mei to capture him with a net.
  • When Nine uses Hydra to get out of the net, Tsuyu and Melissa destroy all the heads and the former throws her mucus at him, trapping his hands and allowing Toru to pummel him. And when Nine tries to use Scanning to track her and fire at her, she blinds him with a flash of light.
  • Nine recovers from that - only to get welcomed by Momo's matryoshka dolls, carrying all sorts of bombs that do a number on him, and when he tries to banish them, Monoma goes back to hitting him with every lightning he can create.
  • That's when Nine decides to retreat... but then Monoma clears the weather and the Ennead smashes him, finally taking him out of the game.
  • And finally, the cherry on top. It's discovered that Neito's Copy has mixed with Nine's copy of All For One, granting a copy of the villainous Quirk, albeit altered from the original, to a hero.
• As of Chapter 67, Izuku can finally use 100% of One For All without hurting himself.
• More Offscreen Moment of Awesome, but Hisashi Midoriya’s investigation into Shoowayshaa publishing has almost gotten solid, undeniable proof of the Meta Liberation Army after only a few months of investigating. Even the MLA officers give an estimate that they only need a couple more months before having solid proof. This compounds the awesomeness that Hisashi keeps surviving the MLA’s constant attempts to assassinate him, and even claims that he keeps being attacked by “Bargain Bin Assassins”.
  • Turns out the prediction was off - Hisashi managed to get everything done and sent straight to Nezu's desk minutes before Re-Destro started his campaign.
• When a bigoted Pro Hero attempts to arrest a group of teens just because they were watching Gentle Criminal's latest video, Mina and Setsuna confront him and hold the line until Midnight arrives as support. And Setsuna also had the smart idea of sending her hand floating away from the Pro Hero's reach with her phone, recording the entire encounter.
• The Tea Spillers hit the motherlode in their latest, and potentially last, heist. They managed to get evidence of all of the HPSC's misdeeds, which they sent to every single news organization, hero school, and investigative hero agency in Japan along with the World Heroes Association. In one move, they've functionally collapsed hero society, something that Mugen and the MLA couldn't do in over a century of work each.
• When Re-Destro comes and attacks All Might, who does the most damage in the fight? Sweet housewife and Mama Bear Inko. She pulls out Re-Destro's teeth one by one, distracting him long enough for All Might to wreck the armor Destro was wearing, and finished it with a powered up punch to the kidney that she also pulled into the side. Afterwards it crosses into Heartwarming and Funny when All Might proposes and she faints in happiness.
• When several bigoted heroes attack Morei Ward (a ghetto for heteromorphs), Mezo Shoji appears and stops all the attacks until Gang Orca shows up and pummels the crap out of the false heroes.
• After several chapters of putting up with Curious' slander of Izuku, Ochako gets the chance to pay her back for everything she's done—and boy, does she make the most of it. First, she knocks Curious skyward with an open palm strike to the solar plexus, and follows it up with a series of further strikes to launch her further into the air, her support gear useless in reducing her ascent and Ochako snarking that the last person with an explosion Quirk she fought could at least use it well. Then, when Curious smugly detonates the support structure of a nearby building as a distraction, Ochako shuts her down by using her Quirk on the entire building so the civilians can evacuate, and then throwing the remaining chunks of the building at the MLA troops right as Curious' Quirk causes it all to explode. And finally, Ochako snags Curious in a grapple cable, threatens to let her fall to her death, and finishes by leaving Curious dangling off the side of a building to be picked up in a few hours.
• Five words: Tomura kills All for One. Tomura reveals he knew about All for One’s plan to destroy him when he re-discovered his true origins and realized his master had been playing him to use his rage to bypass One for All’s defenses. He has to admit, the plan would have worked if not for All For One’s need to manipulate others. With All for One realizing he’s at his former apprentice’s mercy, he begs that his death would result in All for One itself dying. Tomura shows he also planned for that by taking the cloned Quirks his master had been using, including Mugen's own copy of All For One. When Mugen desperately pleads that Tomura will have no idea how to use his powers without his experience, Tomura replies he’s just fine with learning on the fly. And then he does the deed, leaving Mugen’s now mindless body to rot in Tarturus.
• Chapter 74: Momo is now powerful enough to create entire BUILDINGS.
• Chapter 77:
  • Native's Dying Moment of Awesome: discovering several Nomu in a natural reserve, he goes out fighting and uses HeroNet to warn about them, giving the heroes critical minutes to get ready for the onslaught.
  • Yui finally gets to fulfill her dream of riding a Mecha to fight Gigantomachia along with her mentor Mt. Lady, and it's amazing, as both of them pummel the giant and get through his defenses, with Yui even using One for All through her Mecha.
    • Realizing through Quirk Understanding that Gigantomachia's power comes through his resolve, Mei connects to the Mecha's loudspeakers and proceeds to point out to Gigantomachia how superfluous he is to Tomura now, causing him to lose spirit and allowing Yui to bring him down.

Unstable Compound

• When offered a chance to become a hero without going through Ketsubutsu's rehabilitation program and for Izuku to be forced to never talk about what he did, Bakugo tells the HPSC agent to piss off, stating he'll do things the proper way. After the man claims that very few succeed in becoming heroes through said program and none ever make even the top 100, Bakugo retorts that just means he'll be all the more amazing for doing so.
  • And then he forces the man to admit that, unlike the HPSC's program, Ketsubutsu has never lost one of their rehabilitated heroes to villainy, which means he has a better chance of success in Ketsubutsu.
    • The Hero Katsuki mentions as the example above on not trusting the HPSC? Lady Nagant, proving that Bakugo is no slouch himself on knowing some obscure names in the hero industry.

Kyuseishu's Heroic Analysis

• Ryouji's Dying Moment of Awesome: After passing One for All to Isamu in a Last Kiss, he went over to the building All for One was using as his headquarters, loaded up a Laser Disc and overcharged it to the point that it cut the building in half and set the gas lines on fire, causing a massive explosion that killed him. While All for One survived, he lost most of his inner circle and a LOT of resources, forcing him underground and allowing the government to reform and begin to reestablish order.
