My Hero Academia is now tearing its way through the war between the heroes and Paranormal Liberation Front with the sixth season of the anime, and the series has crowned the Rabbit Hero Mirko as the big MVP of the newest episode! After building up the strength of both the heroes and villains sides over the course of the fifth season, the sixth season thus far has been nothing but action as the heroes had attacked Jaku Hospital and the Paranormal Liberation Front’s various bases to catch them by surprise. This means that we’re seeing some big name heroes in action for the first real time.
As the first major hero to make her way to the Doctor’s hidden laboratory, fans have finally gotten to see Mirko in action in her first real fight in the anime. She ended up serving a major role in the newest episode too as she takes a crack at interrupting Tomura Shigaraki’s awakening experiment, and the series has rewarded this major effort by making her the MVP for all that she’s able to do on her own before the other pro heroes get to the laboratory.

What Happened to Mirko in Episode 117?ย
Episode 117 of My Hero Academia (the third episode of Season 6 overall) continues Mirko’s struggles against the High Ends the Doctor had released to keep the tube with Shigaraki in it safe. Mirko made a note of the coming dangers with the villain, and her instincts drove her to attack the tube as soon as possible because she could sense that inside was something far more dangerous than any of the heroes might have been expecting. Thus she focuses all of her efforts to try and break the tube before the villain awakened.ย
Even with the other heroes distracting the High-Ends, all Mirko is able to do with the full force of her power is crack Shigaraki’s tube rather than breaking it open completely. It’s still a major moment as she’s taken several massive injuries over the course of the fight thus far, and had been fighting through that pain in order to push herself as far as possible. Couple with the fact that she kicked the tube with an impaled leg, and it’s no mystery why she’s the episode’s MVP.ย
