Chapter 169

School Festival is the one hundred and sixty-ninth chapter of Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia.

Summary
At Class 1-A's Heights Alliance, Mina is showing off her dance moves, which impresses some of her classmates. Interested, Izuku decides to learn some dance moves from Mina. Denki talks to Kyouka about her music themed room, which Kyouka shily asks Denki to stop commenting on it. In Class 1-A, Shota announces that U.A will be having a culture festival and explains that the culture festival is sponsored by the other departments such as the General Department. However, Shota points out that part of the festival will be within U.A and tells Class 1-A to pick out a program to perform at the culture festival. Tenya asks ideas from Class 1-A; many of them give creative ideas such as Denki's maid cafe or Ochaco's mochi shop. Soon, Class 1-A reaches many ideas. Before class ends, Shota tells Class 1-A to make a decision by tomorrow otherwise the class will be doing a public lecture.

Back at Heights Alliance, Tenya believes that Class 1-A should do a program where everyone can blow off steam. Mina suggests dancing, to which Shoto unexpectedly agrees and goes on to say that relieving stress where everyone can have fun is a great idea, which he got from the Provisional Hero License training. Mina offers to teach Class 1-A some dance moves while Minoru suggests that dancing requires music, which Toru suggests Kyouka for the task. However, Kyouka believes that music has nothing to do with heroism and is simply just a hobby. However, Denki thinks playing with instruments is great and Koji believes that playing music can help put smiles on people's faces. Encouraged by her peers, Kyouka decides to help Class 1-A with music. All of them agreeing with dance and music, Class 1-A's culture festival program will be a live performance and dance with party space.

Meanwhile on the laptop monitor, the next video that will play features a new villain.
