[ETHAN chuckles] Ya see that, fellas?
Proof positive that Star here sucks
when it comes to pushing her strength over the edge.
[STAR AND STRIPE] On the surface, New Order sounds like
a Quirk that allows me to do anything I want.
But there's a limit to how much I can power myself up.
No matter how I phrase the rule, I run into a cap.
People have theories about why that is.
Some say it's all in my brain,
that I don't believe I can get stronger.
Others have said, "Cassie, it's because you're a girl."
[ETHAN] Are you kiddin' me, Star?
It's got nothing to do with you being a woman.
You gotta accept that's just how your Quirk is.
If it's not enough, we'll always be there to back you up.
That's what it means to be a squad.
Get it through your thick skull
that you're stupidly strong, already.
The issue is you're trying to compare yourself to All Might.
[BIGGS] She is probably the only person
who has a chance of getting to his level one day.
Yeah, 'cause they're a couple of beasts.
--You want some? --[ALL laugh]
[ETHAN] Heads up!
Basically, we're telling you not to worry about it.
[STAR AND STRIPE] I gotta hand it to 'em.
They never once said the words I hate so much.
[ETHAN] Star! Tiamat's incoming.
Those are hypersonic missiles.
Can you grab them?
[STAR AND STRIPE] Yeah!
But I'll have to drop the laser rule to do so.
I need you boys to keep him pinned down with heavy fire.
If I lose focus, he'll be on us in no time.
[SHIGARAKI] She must know this attack
isn't going to do any lasting damage.
Sure, I'm pinned down, and my regeneration is stalled.
But that's just a nuisance, not an endgame.
In other words, Ms. Star understands
that if she wants to destroy me,
she'll have to rely on a single blow
I can't hope to bounce back from.
She's waiting for something.
An element that'll tip the fight in her favor.
Don't tell me--
[ETHAN] This is it, Star!
We'll keep the heat coming while you give this attack
everything you've got.
Hit him so hard, there's not even dust left behind.
[SHIGARAKI] What a pain.
She's got a plan.
Well, then.
This'll be a do-or-die moment for both of us.
[ETHAN] Can't believe it's come to this.
[ETHAN, SHIGARAKI] Forced to play each other's shitty games.
Start counting down!
[ETHAN] Three!
Two!
One!
[STAR AND STRIPE grunts]
[STAR AND STRIPE] Before my arm gets ripped off
at the elbow, New Order!
"Tiamat will be redirected!"
As long as the rule impacts one of the missiles,
we're golden.
[ETHAN] Fire!
State-of-the-Art Hypersonic Intercontinental Cruise Punch!
[ETHAN] Did it work?
Is it over?
[STAR AND STRIPE] Was that enough?
[gasps]
[SHIGARAKI] I have full control over Decay.
I knew you had something up your sleeve.
And based on our fight, I figured out that New Order
can probably only be applied to two things at once.
Which meant something had to give
before you played your trump card.
An opening!
The instant the rule changed, I used Decay to bury myself
so far underground, I'd survive any attack.
If I'd made that move a moment too soon,
you would've noticed and countered.
It was a gamble.
The timing had to be precise.
If I hadn't used the Nomu as a decoy,
or my calculations were off, that would've been fatal.
[WEDGE] The bastard had us shooting his pet!
[SHIGARAKI] You brought this on yourself.
I'm just playing along in your shitty game.
If you'd tried that move against anyone else,
you would've won, but not against me!
And now you're gonna lose everything!
[ETHAN] Form up, men! Regain control!
Support Star! Set the stage for her.
So long, Nomu. Explode!
[ETHAN grunts]
Stop stalling and hand over New Order.
[SHIGARAKI, ALL FOR ONE] I promise, I'll use it in ways
[ALL FOR ONE] you never dreamed possible.
[ETHAN] Do it, Star! Don't worry about me.
Crush Tomura!
The explosion from my jet will incinerate him.
You have to!
[STAR AND STRIPE] No. He regenerates too quickly.
[ETHAN] Now!
[ALL FOR ONE, SHIGARAKI] I have to admit, I've been concerned.
[ALL FOR ONE] I couldn't have New Order joining One For All
in the battle against me.
After we took the Heroes Public Safety Commission off the board,
I made sure my friends overseas made moves
in their own countries, spreading fear far and wide,
delaying any foreign heroes from being dispatched to Japan.
The idea was to complete my body,
steal One For All, and when the time was right,
take New Order for myself.
One For All.
The crystallized power that could thwart my every design.
Once I have it in my grasp, those who attempt
to stand against me will be crushed
like ants beneath my heel.
Whether you knew it or not,
you coming here of your own accord and forcing my hand
was the scenario I wanted to avoid most.
I had to take my chance on this incomplete body,
praying that it would hold up.
But, lo!
It appears my little wager paid off.
Goodbye, America!
[ALL gasp]
"Cathleen Bate will not succumb to Decay!"
[ETHAN] She spared me.
Star! You idiot!
[SHIGARAKI] Even your pilots can tell you screwed up.
[STAR AND STRIPE groans]
[STAR AND STRIPE] It's no good.
I've hit the limit of how much I can enhance myself.
I can't stop falling apart!
It's mine!
[ALL FOR ONE] You started decaying the same moment
I began to absorb your Quirk.
And since New Order is an ability
that must be activated via verbal command,
you had to choose between saving your body
or saving your power.
You prioritized your survival, and now you've lost everything.
This is where the end begins, Yoichi.
When we read those comics together so long ago,
you thought I stopped reading
because I didn't know there was more story.
[SHIGARAKI] New Order!
[ALL FOR ONE] But that's not the case.
I simply knew how it would end.
I'll start with "The Air."
[PILOTS gasp]
[SHIGARAKI grunts]
[WEDGE] Are you seeing this? Is he exploding?
[SHIGARAKI] What's going on?
It's like my Quirks are rupturing.
[ETHAN] No way. Star!
[STAR AND STRIPE] Thing is, exploding the jet
wouldn't be enough.
So before Tomura Shigaraki got me, I made a new rule.
"New Order...
[STAR AND STRIPE] ...will rage against any other
Quirk it encounters!"
[screaming]
You treacherous swine!
You cheated!
[STAR AND STRIPE] The worst outcome would've been
for him to steal my power with no repercussion.
Sure, it would have been nice
to keep my body from disintegrating, too.
But you can't always get what you want.
If this is the trade-off?
If I must die to give the world a chance at peace,
it's a small price to pay.
[STAR AND STRIPE] Thank you for everything, my brothers.
Commander Agpar, I've been such a pain.
Please forgive me.
[WEDGE] No.
[ETHAN] Star.
[SHIGARAKI] It feels like my Quirks are at war!
New Order is cannibalizing them.
I must fight it.
I can steal a Quirk or pass it to somebody.
But I can't just trash it.
I have to give New Order away.
A pilot. That'll work.
[ETHAN] Fire!
[ETHAN] Don't let him recover!
Star's still fighting the good fight somewhere inside of him!
[STAR AND STRIPE growling]
[SHIGARAKI] My Reflect Quirk.
It's been destroyed!
[ETHAN] Keep it up!
He's getting weaker!
Vaporize him!
Star's sacrifice will not be in vain!
[STAR AND STRIPE yelling]
[SHIGARAKI] This can't be real.
My Quirks are being destroyed one by one by New Order!
[STAR AND STRIPE] You saved me.
And because of that, you changed the course of my life.
I was able to lose myself in this wonderful dream.
[STAR AND STRIPE] So, All Might.
[STAR AND STRIPE] This is me returning the favor.
[SHIGARAKI] Breaking apart. Gotta hurry.
Damn it!
[ALL FOR ONE] The specter of All Might will not best me!
[ETHAN] After him! Don't let him escape!
[SHIGARAKI] I had the foresight to steal a wing Quirk
from my darling Nomu right before he exploded.
If I add more power to these wings, I can outfly them!
I have to give New Order to someone.
A host.
[SHIGARAKI] If I don't, I won't survive.
[STAR AND STRIPE] I copied his hairstyle, down to the color!
[SHIGARAKI] It's your fault. Again.
No matter where I go, it's always you.
All Might!
[ETHAN] I'm losing control. Damn it!
[ETHAN] Star.
[STAR AND STRIPE] Starting today,
you guys are my ride-or-die brothers.
Let's fight together until death do us part!
[STAR AND STRIPE] All Might. This is me returning the favor.
[ETHAN] Star. Star and Stripe.
[ETHAN] You surpassed him.
Did you know that?
[ETHAN] You've always been the greatest hero.
[VILLAIN 140A] Ugh. There's nothing on TV!
Why is every channel off the air?
[KASHI] What'd you expect? The TV stations were evacuated.
At least this dump still has water and electricity.
I guess it'd be too much to ask for a little entertainment
on top of that, huh?
Fresh out the slammer, and what do those fools do?
Rampage through cities and bring life to a screeching halt.
Least I'm smart enough to hunker down out of town.
[VILLAINS 140A yelps]
What the hell?
[SHIGARAKI panting]
Is he a pro?
No, that can't be right.
--It's a ghost! --[SHIGARAKI] Still time.
I'm not dead yet.
C'mere!
Ms. Star must've imposed a final rule
onto New Order.
Now it refuses to play nice with my other Quirks.
In that case, my best move is to steal
this guy's power and make him Quirkless.
Then I'll store New Order inside his body.
You idiot.
[gasps]
"New Order will rage against any other Quirk it encounters!"
Thanks to the army of Quirks you've got
stored up inside you, New Order's been torn to shreds.
Destroyed.
I regret that I wasn't able to kill you, John Doe.
But I'm comforted by one irrefutable truth.
As long as people stand up to help one another,
there will be someone who embodies the spirit of heroism.
And they will defeat you.
Enough talk.
In reality, the winner is the last man standing.
Be gone, you corpse.
[SHIGARAKI] Someone who's a hero.
[SHIGARAKI] Midoriya.
[IZUKU] The heroes and police swooped in immediately,
searching for anything that could lead them to Shigaraki.
But all they found was the wake of destruction he left behind.
Once again, he managed to disappear.
Word of Star and Stripe's death spread quickly.
The woman thought to be our strongest hero was gone.
This news shook the world,
terrifying governments across the globe.
The effect was clear.
[SALAAM grunts] I'm not being deployed?
You're abandoning Japan!
[GOVERNMENT SECRETARY 140A] No, Salaam!
We're making sure our people are kept safe.
[IZUKU] If you have no heroes, your country becomes a target.
So governments decided that rather than helping people
in a faraway land, they would protect their own citizens.
We had to accept the truth.
We'd have no outside help in our fight.
Cassie. I should've been there.
[ETHAN] Star left more than just a legacy of bravery behind.
The X-66s we arrived in recorded every bit of info
we could gather during the fight with Tomura Shigaraki.
That includes data on his biological responses
and analysis of each Quirk he exhibited.
It's all yours.
I've no doubt this'll help take that monster down.
Surely your people are researching him.
Maybe this'll answer some questions.
[IZUKU] And then, the following day...
An extension?
The American pilots were able to extract
some very enlightening data during their battle.
We've confirmed that Shigaraki's body was expected
to be at 100 percent tomorrow.
But thanks to Star and Stripe,
he won't be on his feet for at least a week.
This is her parting gift to us.
A strategic delay.
Her sacrifice bought us time to plan.
[ALL MIGHT] When Shigaraki stole New Order,
it burned through his body like a poison.
We don't know how many Quirks he had stockpiled.
But we believe a good number of them
were destroyed by Star's attack.
Which means we should go after him.
It's likely the best chance we'll ever get.
I agree.
We have to make the most of this unexpected delay.
Shigaraki and All For One must be defeated.
We still have teams working civilian evacuation,
but every hero not on search and rescue
is looking for Shigaraki and the League.
This set All For One back,
but there's no telling what his next move will be.
His response could be brutal.
Whether we find them or they show themselves,
this will lead to an all-out war.
Consider our foes.
There's Shigaraki.
Injured, but still capable of mass destruction.
All For One, who plots from the shadows.
Dabi, the resentful madman whose flames rival Endeavor's.
Himiko Toga, a girl who loves to toy with us.
At least six Near High Ends.
The members of the Liberation Front who evaded capture.
The escaped convicts who continue to sow seeds of chaos
at All For One's request.
[SHOJI] And likely, enemies we don't know about.
[ALL MIGHT] Yes. There will be more.
Meanwhile, our odds look bleak.
The number of heroes we have ready to deploy
has been cut in half.
I know that Star just died in the line of duty.
But in order for you to protect yourselves and those you want
to protect throughout the world, you need to use this extension
to become as strong as you possibly can.
What the hell do you think we've been doing?
[ALL MIGHT grunts]
You may not've noticed since you and Deku
were off campus so much.
And even when you were here, your visits were brief.
[OJIRO] Ever since we fought in Gunga and Jaku,
we've been training intensively,
just like the Pussycats taught us to.
As much as we can in the dorms, anyway.
We intend to stand side-by-side with Midoriya.
We'll keep fighting until Shigaraki
and the others are defeated.
No mercy.
When we're done here, Kacchan and the others
said they'd spar with me.
With their help, I'll complete One For All--
What?!
I didn't say that, ya damn nerd!
Did those jailbreakers pop your eardrums?
Not this again!
[KATSUKI] Well. I guess I do wanna see
how my new Cluster move works against you.
If it can take on One For All, I'll be that much closer
to obliterating Shigaraki and All For One.
We'll keep training.
Anyone wanna beat me up? I'm so down!
Aren't you getting tired of being everybody's punching bag?
[KIRISHIMA] How else am I supposed to make sure
I'm getting harder?
[TENYA] We must carry on Star's legacy.
[MINETA] Losing that hottie is so sad.
[OJIRO] Have some respect.
[ALL MIGHT] Now. Shall we get started,
you buncha newbies?
[ALL MIGHT] The zygotes from back then
hatched a long time ago.
They're spreading their wings,
ready to fly into the oncoming storm with no hesitation.
All For One.
You made an incredibly stupid mistake.
I'll say it again.
This is one mighty class of heroes.
[IZUKU] Here's the preview!
In order to prepare for the coming battle,
we continue to push our limits and improve our Quirks.
But we're not alone at UA.
Evil has had its tendrils in our school for a while now,
eating away at us from the inside.
Once the truth is revealed, there'll be nowhere else to run.
You must face your fears.
Next time, "Villain."
The light of justice will illuminate the darkness.
Go beyond! Plus Ultra!
