From the TV Anime “My Hero Academia” Season 5, the outline and sneak peek of Episode 111 “Tenko Shimura: Origin” (broadcast from 5:30 p.m. on September 11, 2021), have been released.

“My Hero Academia” is a hero action based on the manga by Horikoshi Kouhei serialized in “Weekly Shonen Jump”.

The 5th season of the TV anime started off with the class match between U.A. High Hero Department 1-A, the class to which the protagonist Deku belongs, and 1-B, who work hard to become “Heroes”. As winter comes, Deku, Bakugou, and Todoroki head off to intern under the current No. 1 hero, Endeavor, to seek further growth. Meanwhile, someone approaches Shigaraki Tomura and the League of Villains.

In episode 111, the League of Villains and the Meta Liberation Army have an all-out battle. Shigaraki Tomura (voice: Uchiyama Koki) finally took Re-Destro down to the ground, using “twice” as much “Quirk” of Twice(voice: Endou Daichi) as he normally has as a decoy. The direct confrontation between the two will begin!
Re-Destro overwhelms Shigaraki with his “meta” that changes stress into power. Meanwhile, Shigaraki remembers the memories of his childhood……!?

The episode features the story of the past of Shigaraki, who is one of the main villains, and the tragic episode with his family. The story created enormous impact on the fans when it was published in Jump, and has been kept secret in the anime series. Nakayama, who plays the role of Shigaraki commented that “I was shocked to see that he had such experiences in his past, and it was also tough for me to express that. However, I managed to get it done”. The notable episode will finally be released in the anime series.
