BN // MHA S1 EP5

Intro —————————————————————————————— What I Can Do for Now { 今僕に出来ることを , Ima Boku ni Dekiru Koto o? } is the fifth episode of the My Hero Academia anime. Katsuki impresses the class, except for Yuki, with the first pitch. Shota uses Katsuki as an example. Katsuki only threw about sixty-four meters in middle school, but after using his Quirk, Katsuki proceeds to throw over seven hundred meters. At first, the students are excited to participate, but Shota quickly shuts them down and announces that the student who ranks last in total points will be deemed hopeless and immediately expelled. The class is shocked by his announcement, but Yuki’s reaction’s the opposite, as if she knew he’d say that. Ochaco declares that the rule is unfair, and Shota replies that the world is unfair, and it's a hero's job to combat that unfairness. While the Quirk Apprehension Test begins, All Might worries that Shota will single out Izuku almost immediately and goes to watch it in person, as well as Yuki, of course. The test is composed of students competing in a series of physical tests. During the trials, every student uses their Quirks to excel, while Izuku struggles since he can only use One For All at one hundred percent or not at all. Yuki excels in each test, with Katsuki doing well too, thanks to the versatility of their Quirk’s. Story. Shota questions Izuku's ability to become a hero. The class reaches the pitching test, and Izuku realizes this is the only test left where he can show off his abilities to avoid getting expelled. He tries to use his Quirk to throw the ball, but it fails. Shota reveals his own Quirk, the ability to erase other people’s Quirks.
