A hostage rescue on the morning commute burns through the last of All Might's clock, so Class 1-A heads to disaster training one teacher short. Then a black portal opens inside the facility, and the men stepping out already know the day's schedule.
At five to eight on a Wednesday, Kamui Woods and Mt. Lady are losing. The villain in front of them, Trapezius Headgear, has an innocent family in his grip and more than enough strength to keep both pros at bay. All Might barrels through, ends the fight in a single instant with Missouri Smash, and the family walks away unhurt. The two heroes thank him, and he is gone almost immediately, due at U.A.
By ten to one that afternoon, Shota Aizawa tells Class 1-A that their Foundational Skill of Heroics period is given over to the Trial of Rescue. A bus carries them to the Unforeseen Simulation Joint, a training ground built to reproduce any accident or catastrophe imaginable. Thirteen, the Space Hero who specializes in disaster relief and shares teaching duty for the session, addresses the students about turning their Quirks toward protecting human life.
The speech ends and Aizawa spots a black portal tearing open. Villains spill through it by the dozen. He barks at his students to cluster together, hands their safety to Thirteen and readies himself for combat. One of the intruders complains that the timetable they lifted a day earlier had promised them All Might, which tells Aizawa exactly who broke into U.A. Another sounds let down that the man is missing, and wonders aloud whether killing the children would be enough to summon him.
All Might exhausts his time limit handling rescues on the way to U.A., which is why he misses his lesson with Class 1-A.
Class 1-A travels to the Unforeseen Simulation Joint for rescue training under Aizawa and Thirteen.
A large group of villains breaches U.A.'s advanced security and warps into the facility, opening the U.S.J. Incident.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
