Summary
Its Saturday so everyone in Class 1-A is rehearsing on their day off. The Band team plays the instruments, the Stage team discuss the effects they should use for the performance, and the Dance team practices the choreography in front of the Class 1-A rooms under Mina's supervision. Mirio Togata and Shota Aizawa arrive to introduce Eri to the class, although first Mirio prepares a "grand entrance" to surprise Class 1-A, but Izuku Midoriya notices his presence. Although his surprise is ruined, Mirio still does the "entrance", which is pop out his butt of a bunch of bushes. No one pays attention to him.

Izuku, Ochaco and Tsuyu are glad to see Eri again. Shota informs Izuku that director Nezu has given permission for Eri to attend the festival, although he advised him that he should brind Eri to the U.A. very early so she could adapt, since due she had been separated from society for years, suddenly thrust her into a big social event like a school festival might be a bit too much for her. After some of the students introduce themselves to Eri,  Mirio states that he is showing Eri around U.A. and invites Izuku to join them. Izuku accepts and Mina suggests taking a break.

Mirio and Izuku give Eri a tour of the school, where she meets other students and sees how they work hard, preparing for the school festival. They accidentally come across with Tetsutetsu, Neito Monoma and Yosetsu Awase while transporting a dragon model. Neito boasts Class 1-B’s play and rants arrogantly class 1-A’ concert, until he is knocked out by Awase, who apologizes for Neito’s behavior. Yosetsu clarifies that it is generally Itsuka Kendo who punishes Neito, but at that time she is to busy with the beauty pageant. Mirio apologizes to Eri for showing her U.A.'s bad parts.

Izuku wonders why Shota didn’t say anything about a beauty pageant, which reminds Mirio that Nejire, who was last year's beauty pageant runner-up, participates in said contest, and takes them to the equipment room, where at the moment she tries on dresses and participates in a photo shoot, helped by Tamaki and her friend Yuyu. Once there, Nejire is wearing a sexy dress and Izuku is s awed by her "body proportions" during her shoot. Nejire is determined to win the beauty pageant. She hopes to beat Bibimi Kenranzaki, who won the previous pageants, since this is her last year at U.A.

Next, Izuku, Mirio, and Eri go and see U.A.'s Development Studio, where they meet Mei, who is working hard building a giant combat suit, and refusing to waste time bathing. Izuku and Mirio are impressed by her dedication, and Mei clarifies that it is because the School Festival offers a greater opportunity to highlight since U.A. Sports Festival as for the Hero Department. Mei ask Izuku if the Iron Soles she created work out for him, but before he can reply, the combat suit explodes, to Mei's surprise and annoyance of the Development Studio’s members. Izuku hurries Eri to their next destination.

The three continue with the tour, seeing other students working hard on their respective projects for the festival, until they decide to go to the Lunch Rush Cafeteria. Mirio and Izuku ask Eri her opinion and she says she's motivated by the school's determination and she wishes to see how it ends. Izuku and Mirio are happy that Eri is feeling excited.

Headmaster Nezu and Midnight, who were eating in the cafeteria, join their conversation. The principal is also exited to seeing the festival, although Midnight shows his concern due the Police Force's issues with the event. Nezu tries not to give it any importance, and a memory of him shows the chief of police warning Nezu to cancel the festival due to the increase in crime and the U.A. is usually targeted by villains thanks to its prominence, but Nezu refuses to do it, arguing that it is precisely in difficult times when students need the festival. Nemuri comments that Nemuri managed to convince the chief of police to agree, assuring him that they have reinforced security and agree to suspend all activities if alarms sound, even if it is a false alarm.

Nemuri leaves after wishing Izuku his best to at Class 1-A performance. When Eri asks about it, he tells her that Class 1-A will be doing a dance party with live music performance and promises Eri that she'll have a great time at the festival, before return to his class.

A week passes and Mina tells Midoriya that he is fired from the dance team. Izuku is shocked, but fortunately, Mina is just trolling him and clarifies that he has been asked to join the effects team instead since they're worried that people will eventually get bored of Aoyama being the disco ball and Koji suggested the idea of the Aoyama-ball moving in all directions, so Izuku is requested to maneuver Aoyama during the performance. Eijiro apologizes to Izuku for doing this; Izuku decides to go along with their new plan, as long as he can keep his promise to Eri about dancing during it at some point.
