Highlights:

The students have settled into their dorms (Heights Alliance), and school life has become routine once again.

In class, Mr. Aizawa tells the students that they will be focusing on getting their provisional licenses. The exam is difficult and has only a 50% passing rate each year. So students must come up with at least two ultimate moves. Cementoss, Midnight, and Ectoplasm will be helping them achieve that. They are instructed to change and meet in the Gym Gamma, also known as the "Training Dining Land," or TDL.

Midoriya watches everyone advancing, but he's worried about his arms. All Might tells him, "you're still trying to imitate me." Unsure what was meant by that statement, Midoriya visits the Development Studio where he meets up with Iida and Uraraka. The three have an explosive run in with Mei Hatsume (literally). However, it's there that young Midoriya has a revelation.

Four Days later, Midoriya's costume changes involve braces to reduce the strain on his arms and reinforced foot gear. "If I'm worried about my arms, then I'll use my legs!" One For All: Full Cowling...Shoot Style!
