The final match of the battle training between Class A and Class B continues. Zapped by Shinso’s mind control, Midoriya enters a fugue state where he meets one of the former users of One For All. What powerful Quirks have yet to be unlocked? Midoriya will surely need the full potential of One For All someday, but in the meantime, a new enemy–the Meta Liberation Army–begins to make its moves.

This volume of the My Hero Academia parody series treats hero education like a joke! First, there’s a whole lot of fun in the sun on summer break for the aspiring heroes of U.A. High. Then, everyone attends a training camp in the woods, which turns out surprisingly normal except for one small abduction. DEC192057 Amazon affiliate ad link
