In the pages of its manga, the next story arc following My Hero Academia‘s Joint Training Exercise Arc was the Meta Liberation Army saga, aka My Villain Academia, but it seems as if the 101st episode of the anime adapted by Studio Bones shows that the franchise is shaking things up.

With Shoto Todoroki and Bakugo finally gaining their provisional hero licenses, failing their first attempt, and now claiming victory against Gang Orca and his band of followers, the stage has been set for the duo to team up with Deku and learn as much as they can in the agency of Endeavor, who is attempting to grapple with his potential role as the “Symbol of Peace,”
