Chapter 220

My Villain Academia (僕のヴィランアカデミア) is the two hundred and twentieth chapter of Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia.

Synopsis
Prior to the Hero Billboard Chart JP event, the League of Villains confronts the Church of Racial Cleanliness at an abandoned church. The group notably discriminates against those with Mutant-type Quirks. A member of the Church calls the league "filthy lizards", much to the annoyance of Spinner. Spinner shoots a grimace towards the church organization, noting that being described as a mutant is rather prejudiced. One of the church members notices Himiko Toga and Mr. Compress stealing some of their prized possessions. Compress informs the cultists that since the League is running low on cash, they have to resort to stealing other competitors' wealth for the sake of running more projects. The church then attempts to attack the League, only for Tomura to retaliate by blocking a member's attack. An irritated Tomura tells the thugs that if the group wants the League to leave so badly, they'll have to shut up and stay out of their way.

The League of Villains decides to fight back against their new opponents. Twice and Himiko start off by slicing some of the thugs' throats open with their respective weapons. A thug attempts to restrain Compress, only for the masked magician to brutally compress one of his hands in cold blood. Tomura swiftly disintegrates the multiple church thugs with his Decay Quirk, while Spinner finishes the remaining members with a katana sword. After the battle ends, Tomura commands his allies to search the rest of the mansion for any prized possessions. As Twice comments on religion being a profitable industry, Himiko notes that one of her needles broke during the fight. Compress also reveals that his prosthetic arm is starting to have problems, wondering if the League should ask Giran for assistance.

The Villains then return to their worn-down hideout to strategize another plan for acquiring more funds for further malicious projects. Spinner questions his leader on how long the league shall live in a poor location, in which Tomura responds that they'll be living this way until the Symbol of Peace is brought down for good. Compress tries to lighten up the cold atmosphere by making crude jokes about the Yakuza, commenting on how they're now in shambles thanks to the league's treachery. While Himiko and Twice play with the newly-acquired jewelry, Dabi arrives at the hideout's front door and asks why he's the only one recruiting new members for the league. Twice calls his cremated ally out as the latter only went around burning multiple thugs down and doubts that he brought back any new members. Dabi smugly tells Twice that everyone is garbage, noting that nowadays the streets are filled with trash that lives out their lives without ambition or goals for the future. Himiko suggests that Dabi's taste in people sucks, only for Dabi to tell her to shut up.

Tomura gloomily notes that it had been about a month since Kurogiri was captured by Pro Heroes. Tomura recalls Kurogiri lecturing him the fact that since All For One was imprisoned, he must advance the League of Villains to a greater stage. Kurogiri also informs the young pupil of the "power" All For One left behind, wondering if he should retrieve it or not. Tomura laments on the loss of Kurogiri and his attempts to find All For One's doctor. Himiko notices Tomura's loneliness without Kurogiri and askes Tomura what was the doctor is like. Tomura explains that the doctor was All For One's personal physician, a real cautious man responsible for the creation of the Nomu. He mentions the only times he contacted the doctor was through the computer at the old hideout. Spinner silently observes the conversation as Himiko and Twice try to comfort their leader upon realizing his apparent misery.

Having lost patience, Spinner goes up to Tomura and questions what direction he's aiming for. Spinner points out the only reason he joined the league was due to Stain's ideology. He then reveals his previous life was a living hell thanks to being surrounded by conservative values and racism against mutants. Spinner mentions that due to his poor lifestyle, he was filled with nothing more than emptiness. However, the moment Stain became infamous for his crimes on TV, Spinner realizes that the current world must be changed for the sake of ending discrimination against the oppressed. Since Spinner knows that he can't do it alone, that's when he chose to become of the league's members.

Spinner then admits that his name means nothing else to his actual identity, which surprises Dabi who comments that the former wasn't just a crappy cosplayer. The lizard grabs Tomura by the shirt and yells at his leader about his lack of direction he's leading his comrades toward. Just as Spinner vents out his frustrations towards Tomura, the hideout starts shaking violently. Tomura and his allies immediately evacuate the crumbling building and discover that Gigantomachia was responsible for this mess. Tomura expresses glee as he realizes that this must be the power Kurogiri mentioned to him. Dabi and Compress both appear fascinated by the monstrous being's entrance. Gigantomachia drops his radio box hanging from his neck and proceeds to challenge the league to see whether they're worthy of rescuing his master.

Back to the present, Gigantomachia easily crushes the league's forces with ease. The colossal beast shows disappointment in the league's performance, tearfully crying out that Tomura's too weak to handle such a task. The confrontation carries on but the radio box suddenly activates, revealing to be the doctor who lends his assistance to the League of Villains.
