League of Villains vs. U.A. Students (
Summary[]
The students prepare for Gigantomachia's impending arrival.
Creati addresses her fellow U.A. students as they prepare their plan to deal with Gigantomachia. She states based on Tentacole's report he stands 25 meters tall, and that because of the Blueflames shot from its back, the League of Villains must be with him too. She tells them that Midnight said to inject an anesthetic into him to put him to sleep, but due to his immense size, they'll have to administer it orally. She creates a ton of canisters containing the fluid and says they will set a trap to get him to stop.
Mudman uses his Quirk on the grass floor, while Grape Juice covers it in his Pop Off balls. He worryingly asks if Midnight is still alive, causing Pinky to confidently say she is fine, since she still has so much left to teach them. Creati continues to create explosions to throw into the mud pile, while Lizardy keeps watch, warning them of the beast's fast approach.
The students trap Machia and attempt to pry open his mouth.
Mt. Lady persists in trying to drag down Gigantomachia, telling the unconscious Kamui Woods on top of her to release his grip. Meanwhile on the beast’s back, Spinner suggests doing something about her, but Mr. Compress responds saying it’s out of their league. Machia finally comes in range of the students, causing him to trip and fall right into their mud trap, just as Mt. Lady and Kamui Woods let go.
As Machia starts to slowly sink, several of the students proceed to use various whips to grab onto his neck in an attempt to force his mouth open. As they struggle to hold him down, Mr. Compress recognizes them as U.A. students, which causes Himiko Toga to look around anxiously. Several more students attempt to ambush them, with Can't Stop Twinkling shooting his Navel Lasers at them. Earphone Jack also tries to attack but her Earphone Jack is burned by Dabi.
Gigantomachia blows the students away.
Several disks are then thrown onto each of the League members, as Chargebolt is himself thrown upwards, prepared to shoot his Electrification right at them. But before he can, Mr. Compress shoots out his last remaining compressed debris at him, knocking him out of the air. They manage to get Machia's mouth open, with everyone throwing their canisters toward it, but he simply blows them all away, sending a hurricane of air toward the students. Dabi follows suit by shooting his fire toward them, burning the forest area around them.
Dabi compliments Gigantomachia on his Quirk that turns morale into energy, as well as his Quirk that prevents pain, and all his others, citing the Doctor's words how he is equipped with all the right abilities to make him the unstoppable perfect bodyguard. The fire proves too much for the students to get through, as Machia begins to escape and slowly make his way forward. Undeterred, Creati activates their next trap, causing the explosions underneath to go off, trapping him once again as he sinks downward.
Creati activates their next trap.
Spinner laughs due to Machia being a master at burrowing underground, however Mr. Compress reminds him that if he does that they wouldn't survive, figuring that he was ordered to bring them along, and that their presence may actually be holding him back. More Heroes arrive on the back to attack the League, while Mt. Lady returns to grab Machia's head and pry his mouth open, having realized the students' plan.
Several of the students trapped outside the fire try to plan their next move, while Emily watches over the injured Chargebolt. At the same time, Pinky rushes in using her Acidman technique to protect herself from the fire, jumping toward Machia ready to throw the vial into his mouth. Just as she is about to, Machia begins to speak, noting all the "flies" surrounding him, preventing him from reaching his master, and that they must be dealt with. The voice causes Pinky to realize that he is the same monstrous being that she had encountered back in middle school. The shock causes her to hesitate for just long enough that she trips up, missing her shot.
Red Riot saves Pinky.
Gigantomachia grabs Mt. Lady by the head, tossing her to the side, while Pinky desperately tries to regain her bearings and grab the vial again. Just as the beast is about to crush her, Red Riot suddenly appears, pushing her out of the way and taking the hit. Pinky tries to go after him, but Real Steel stops her, telling her how much faster he ran through the fire than him. Machia stands back up, pushing the Heroes off him while holding the League, ready to make his next move. However, they are all surprised to see Red Riot still clinging onto his body, scaling up the beast's leg.
The anaesthetic is successfully inserted into Gigantomachia.
He throws a vial toward Machia's mouth, as Himiko quickly throws one of her knives to destroy it. However, that was just his own, and he had also managed to recover Pinky's vial, successfully shooting it directly into the mouth. Lizardy saves Red Riot before he can be swatted away, while the students on the ground shoot a barrage of missiles from cannons at Machia. Mudman uses his Quirk to put out the fire, while Creati reports in to Majestic, as he uses his Quirk to fly the rest of the Heroes to finish up Gigantomachia themselves. But then, not intending for the "pests" to waste his time any longer, Gigantomachia transforms his body, shocking everyone as he is about to attack.
"That's what makes us Heroes and Villains."
Meanwhile in Jaku City, the Heroes look over Tomura Shigaraki who has still managed to survive despite their assault. Endeavor tells him to surrender, as they won't be defeated by his meaningless conviction. However, as he begins to stand up, Tomura states the words of his father that "Heroes are people who hurt their families to save strangers", and that he has always had a conviction. While Eraser Head continues to keep his eyes on him, Tomura continues to say how they have only been pretending to make a difference and how much they have turned a blind eye to or swept under the rug, thinking about his own childhood experience of being abandoned.
He states that the damage has built up little by little over time and that the coddled trash has now started to see the effects of it all. He declares that the world has rejected him, so he has rejected the world, that being why he destroys, and saying it doesn't matter if they understand, as that is what makes them "Heroes" and "Villains". Endeavor responds with a fire blast, thanking him for the breather, but yet despite all the damage he has accumulated, he is still able to jump out of the way, with a gleeful smile on his face.
Tomura critically injures Gran Torino.
Gran Torino slams him back into the ground, noting how both him and Endeavor have gotten weaker, but is still caught off guard by Tomura managing to grab onto his leg, crushing it and slamming him to the ground. Gran Torino looks on at Tomura's twisted face, as he thinks back on the moment when Nana Shimura abandoned Kotaro. She tells him how she altered the records, so it won't link him to her so All For One won't use him to get to her. She repeats to him that she never had a son, slowly breaking down into tears as he embraces her to comfort her. Gran Torino wonders if he and Nana really made the right choice, just as Tomura punches straight through his chest.
Deku screams out in anger, attempting to use Blackwhip to grab him, but Tomura speeds right by toward Eraser Head. Ryukyu stops him, using her Dragon scales to force him down, followed by Deku re-appearing to reinforce him with Blackwhip. He cries out that he'll never forgive him, with Tomura responding he won't forgive anyone. He yells to Blackwhip to get stronger, refusing to let Tomura escape, while Endeavor charges up for his final attack.
Eraser Head is shot by the Quirk-Erasing Bullet.
However, through a hole he managed to punch through Ryukyu's hand, Tomura points his hand through it, revealing a Quirk-Destroying Bullet. Ryukyu recognizes it as the Quirk deleter, which Deku realizes is the same thing that destroyed Mirio's Quirk. To prevent him from shooting it, he unleashes a One For All 100% Wyoming Smash. But Tomura is able to resist the attack by biting down on Deku's arm, and thinking about his past and his hatred, believes that he can accomplish anything. He uses his fingers to flick the Bullet forward, speeding right toward Eraser Head, and hitting him right in the leg.

Anime & Manga Differences[]
- Mudman and Lizardy's being worried about Phantom Thief's group is removed in anime.
- In the manga, Creati contacts Majestic while driving away from the flames with fireproof suits. In the anime, this scene is replaced with Mudman using his Quirk to sink the burning trees to extinguish the fire, while Momo contacts Majestic from a rock formation outside the fire.
- The students initial reactions to Gigantomachia's transformation are shown in the anime.
- Bakugo destroying Tomura's first Quirk-Destroying Bullet is omitted in the anime. Tomura only throws the one that hits Eraser Head.
