Tsukauchi: Our investigators are trying to learn everything they can about this so-called "League of Villains." We've made some progress, but we can't find anything on this Shigaraki so far. We've searched our records for men in their 20 or 30 who are registered as having some sort of disintegration Quirk, but so far, we've come up empty. Same for the Warp Gate villain, Kurogiri. So they're not citizens or they're using aliases. Hard to find, either way.

So what you're really saying is we don't know anything.

Snipe: We've gotta track 'em down.I shot their ringleader, but once he heals up he'll probably try pullin' somethin' like this again. What a pain.

All might: He did seem like the type.

Nexu: Is something on your mind, All Might?

All might: The attack on the USJ was too bold. No sane adult would ever attempt it. The ringleader kept monologuing about the reasons he was there. And he bragged about Nomu's many Quirks, but he never said a word about his own powers. When things didn't go his way, he was visibly upset. Like he was gonna throw a tantrum. Ah, I guess bragging about Nomu's Quirks was a quick way to draw me into a fight.

Nexu: That might be true, yes, but strategically, it was foolish to reveal his Quirks up front instead of keeping them a secret.

All might: Shigaraki made wild, immature claims, but did so with a completely straight face. And he talked about Nomu like he was some kind of a pet. It seemed like he'd never been told "no" before. like he thought things would go his way no matter what. He has the personality of a spoiled little brat. A man-child.

A child with incredible

Midnight: power, though. It's possible he never got the Quirk counseling students receive in elementary school.

Snipe: Maybe so, but it doesn't really matter now.

Tsukauchi: There were villains arrested in the aftermath of the USJ attack. They were all small-time thugs who usually lurked around back alleys. What worries me is that this "man-child" got them all to follow his crazy plan. They viewed him as a real leader. Criminals are starting to feel more pressure now that the world is brimming with heroes. That could be why they were so quick to back such simple-minded villainy.

Guess that makes sense.

Snipe:There are plenty a' people out there lookin' for a cause to get behind.

Midnight: So, what can we do to stop them?

Tsukauchi: Well, it is thanks to you heroes that we have the time to devote ourselves to this case. We'll expand our investigation and continue searching for the perpetrators who planned this attack.

Nexu: A man-child, huh? In some ways, he shares common ground with our students. They both have so much potential. And, like our students, I suppose it's possible someone is guiding him, trying to nurture his malice and villainy.

All might: I don't wanna think about what that could mean.

Toru: You guys! Did you watch the news last night?

Ojiro: Yeah.

Toru: It was so cool that we got a few seconds of screen time! Though I bet nobody noticed me hanging out in the background.

Shoji: Probably not.

Ojiro: It is difficult to stand out when you're just gloves.

Kaminart: We're totally big deals. Those news channels love us. we're basically celebrities.

Kirishima: Yeah, it's kinda crazy, right?

Jiro: Get over yourselves. The hero course that pumps out pros was attacked, and that's what they care about.
