From the TV anime “My Hero Academia” season 5, a synopsis and sneak peek of episode 97 ‘Early Bird!’, which will be broadcast from 5:30 p.m. on May 22 (Sat), 2021, have been arrived.

“My Hero Academia” is a hero action based on a manga by Horikoshi Kohei, which is currently serialized in ‘Weekly Shonen Jump’.
Season 5 of the TV anime depicts Deku’s next trial to be “the best hero”, which is a battle of egos with Class 1-B. The students are very excited about the battle for the first time since a sports festival. At the same time, “something” is awakening in Deku.

The subtitle of episode 9 (episode 97 overall) is ‘Early Bird!’.
Class 1-A and Class 1-B tied with 1 win, 1 loss, and 1 draw after the 3rd match. They are heading into the 4th match in a tense situation as losing the match results in a complete defeat as an entire class.
Class A Team consisting of Bakugou Katsuki (CV. Okamoto Nobuhiko), Jiro Kyoka (CV. Shindo Kei), Sero Hanta (CV. Furushima Kiyotaka), Sato Rikido (CV. Nara Toru), confronts Class B Team consisting of Tokage Setsuna, Bondo Kojiro, Awase Yosetsu (CV. Matsuoka Yoshitsugu), Kamakiri Togaru and others!

Bakugou makes the first move with the support from Jiro and others behind. On the other hand, Class B counterattacks centered around Torikage, a student who got into the school on recommendation, attempting to get Bakugou stressed while watching his move, to get Class A Team disadvantaged. How is it going to turn out?

Episode 97 “Early Bird!” of “My Hero Academia” season 5 will be broadcast from 5:30 p.m. on May 22 (Sat), 2021, on Yomiuri TV and Nippon TV franchised 29 channels.
