My Hero Academia - Make It! Do-or-Die Survival Training

Make It! Do-or-Die Training (生き残れ! 決死のサバイバル訓練) is a special two-part original episode and the fourth OVA for the My Hero Academia series.

Part 1
In preparation for Class 1-A's Provisional Hero License Exam, Eraser Head decides to give the class a training exercise on disaster rescue, due to previous license exams having a disaster rescue test in most cases. The class is split into two teams of ten students. Team A consists of Izuku, Katsuki, Shoto, Tenya, Ochaco, Tsuyu, Denki, Eijiro, Fumikage, and Momo. Team B consists of Yuga, Mina, Mashirao, Toru, Koji, Rikido, Mezo, Kyoka, Minoru, and Hanta.

Team A is tasked with rescuing a training dummy from a six-floor shopping mall. Two hours prior, a fire broke out at the bottom floor, and all the other civilians barring the dummy were evacuated. The fire caused the building's power was knocked out, but the emergency power is still functional. The building's mobile relay station is also down, preventing the student's from contacting each other through cell phone.

Team A decides to split up into smaller groups search each floor one-by-one for the training dummy. Katsuki goes off to search on his own, impatiently wanting to save the dummy before anybody else. Denki and Eijiro deciding to follow him. Momo decides to split the remaining members based on how everyone's Quirks complimented each other. The first group being Izuku, Ochaco, and Tsuyu, the second group being Shoto and Fumikage, leaving Momo and Tenya to make up the last one. While the group is planning, Recovery Girl and Eraser Head watch from a distance. During Team A's search efforts, the building starts to shake, causing the floor to crumble and the students to fall to the lower floors of the mall.

Izuku, Ochaco, and Tsuyu land on a hill of rubble on the second floor, with the opening they fell through being sealed up by more debris. Ochaco suggests that Izuku should break the rubble to form and escape path, but Tsuyu advises against it, noting that the building hasn't settled from the tremors. The team decides to move each piece of rubble individually using Ochaco's Zero Gravity. Momo calls out to the group from above, stating she's trapped and that Tenya was knocked out and injured after saving her from falling debris. Izuku instructs her to stay put and to create glue to hold the debris together and prevent it from falling on top of them.

Shoto and Fumikage managed to escape unscathed due to the former freezing the falling rubble above them. As most of the area is sealed off, Fumikage is unable to use Dark Shadow out of fear of it going berserk, and Shoto can't use his flames at the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Fumikage suggests to stay put and wait for the teachers to rescue them, but Shoto assumes the second disaster to be part of the exercise. Both decide to look for their other classmates to make sure they are uninjured.

Somewhere in the lower floors, Eijiro and Denki break through a pile of rubble, commenting on how Katsuki blasted most of the rubble into smaller pieces, and Eijiro shielding Denki by hardening himself. As Eijiro and Denki discuss an escape plan, Katsuki decides to look for the dummy. Denki points out that this is just training and that they should focus on finding away out. Katsuki retorts by saying if someone like All Might would save someone regardless if it was training or not, then he should be able to do it too. Agreeing with Katsuki, Eijiro decides to follow him, with Denki reluctantly trailing behind the two.

Izuku, Ochaco, and Tsuyu manage to reach Momo and Iida and prioritize getting the injured student to safety. Momo notes that removing each piece of debris to get to the surface would take hours, Izuku decides that they should dig towards to the elevator hall, theorizing that it didn't collapse in the accident, allowing them a safe passageway to the first floor. Katsuki's group manages to reach the sixth floor, and head to the room that controls the building's emergency power. Katsuki instructs Denki to charge the building's spare batteries.
