The wind howls as birds chirp and the sound of water rushes through my ears.

???: Are you okay?

A guy looks over me from the side.

???: ...You seem pretty out of it.

???:: To be honest, I'm also... No, everyone else feels the same, too.

???: Since we suddenly...got put in this weird situation.

???: ...

???: ...Hey, are you listening?

???: ...

I don't understand.

Why am I...here...?

...

...What happened?

I should try to remember that first...

I began to think, disentangling the twisted knots that formed in my mind.

Think-think-think-think-think-think-think.

As I gathered the fragments of my scattered memories, I began to piece together what actually happened...

...

That's right...I...

I...

Somewhere...

Flashback time Bitches

Hajime P.O.V

That day...it wasn't just a typical day for me...

It was a day that felt...truly significant.

And when that long-awaited day finally came, I felt proud in a way I can't really put into words.

I felt like...I had become a part of something greater than myself. Does that make sense?

Actually, that's exactly what it was like...I was truly in a dream.

We then see Hajime standing in front of Hope's Peak academy.

Hope's Peak Academy...

That place was so much more than a school to me.

Kids who love to play baseball will long to join the major leagues...

Kids who love to play soccer will long to join a rep team...

And ever since I was a kid, I've felt the same way about Hope's Peak Academy...

Hope's Peak academy is a government-funded school for the privileged elite of society.

It recruits too students from every imaginable field to inspire Hope, and in doing so, shape the future.

Whenever Hope's Peak academy is mentioned, it's only a matter of time before someone says...

"If you come here and manage to graduate, you'll be set for life."

And just so you know, that's not a joke or an exaggeration at all.

Many of the current leaders of various industries are actually alumni of this school...

Well, that's basically what Hope's Peak academy is all about. As they say, it's truly the academy of Hope.

There are two criteria you must meet in order to attend this school...

One, you must be a current high school student.
Two, you must be the very best at what you do.

Unlike other schools, there aren't any entrance exams at this academy.
