Episode 86

Let It Flow! School Festival! (垂れ流せ! 文化祭!) is the eighty-sixth episode of the My Hero Academia anime and the twenty-third episode of the fourth season.

Summary
Hound Dog and Ectoplasm surround Gentle Criminal and La Brava as the villain surrenders. Ectoplasm recognizes Gentle from his online videos, but Dog becomes angry because he senses a third person is involved. Seeing him dirty and scratched Hound asks Gentle what happened, he replies that he just tripped and fell, but Dog doesn't buy it as he smells one of UA's students.

Soon after, Izuku arrives at place. Gentle asks Dog and Ectoplasm to pardon La Brava as he claims to have brainwashed her into working with him. The teachers asks Izuku if he fought Gentle. The young hero replies Gentle was trying to pull a prank on U.A and they just had a small disagreement but that everything is fine now. Snipe calls in asking for a status update. Hound Dog, though suspicious, reports back that there is no threat to U.A. and the Cultural Festival can continue without issue. Then, the teachers takes Gentle an La Brava to the police station.

While being escorted, Gentle tells Izuku that he used to be enrolled in the Hero Course and became a villain when he was dropped out of the course. After remembering the words Izuku said to him during their fight, he hopes that Izuku's feelings can reach others.

Ectoplasm warns Izuku that All Might is worried about him and there is less than an hour left for the class 1-A's performance to start. Midoriya panics after remembering he left the his bag of items for the Festival back in town. Ectoplasm goes with Midoriya to find them as the young hero thinks about how Gentle was his toughest opponent so far, as he could have strayed from his path like Gentle did, because they share similar though and feelings. Along the way he recovers the camera of La Brava.

Back at UA, the students are concerned that Izuku won't get back in time, even Eri is worried about the possibility that Izuku is not going to dance, although Mirio reassures her. Thankfully, he arrives at 9:50 a.m., and Yuga Aoyama, who was waiting for him at the entrance, gives him his suit for the performance. Ectoplasm also suggests Izuku to clean up before the show.
