Summary[]

With Tomura Shigaraki recovering from his battle with Star and Stripe, the students of Class 1-A spend their time preparing for the Final War, building their strength. They participate in search and rescue missions across the ruins of Japan, rescuing civilians and arresting Villains they find.

During one of these excursions, the students meet up to take a break from the combat, taking the chance to motivate each other, relax, and complain about the Villains. However, they're suddenly attacked by a group of rogue Villains, intent on stealing one of the Heroes' armored trucks. The U.A. students, expecting the attack, fight back against the Villains, and Deku ties them up with Blackwhip. The Villains are handed over to the police as All Might informs the students of new Villain sightings, and they split into three groups, following up on the reports.

In an unknown location, a masked man watches footage of the finale of the Kamino Incident in a room covered in pictures of All Might. Elsewhere, a man with an eyepatch holds a picture of a blonde woman, which he admires. Mimicking All Might's declaration in the Incident's finale, Deku states that the future will be "their" moment, while the masked man declares that the future will be "his" moment.
