Goodreads Synopsis:
What would the world be
like if 80 percent of the population manifested superpowers called
"Quirks"? Heroes and villains would be battling it out everywhere! Being
a hero would mean learning to use your power, but where would you go to
study? The Hero Academy of course! But what would you do if you were
one of the 20 percent who were born Quirkless?
The final stages of the U.A. High sports festival promise to be explosive as Uraraka takes on Bakugo in a head to head match! Bakugo never gives anyone a break, and the crowd holds its breath as the battle begins. The finals will push the students of Class 1-A to their limits and beyond!

Review:
The one-on-one battles continue.
It’s Ochaco’s turn to fight, and she plays hard. She’s determined, and she
tries hard. Bakugo takes the win, though. I think it shows more how Ochaco
reacts to her loss, though. She’s upset and she feels like she disappointed her
parents, but they’re still so proud and it’s very heartwarming to see.
Our hero, Midoriya fights
Todoroki, but this turns more into Midoriya provoking Todoroki until he shows
his real power, making him realize that he’s not fighting fair by only using
half of his power I liked seeing into Todoroki's past here. It’s a surprising turn, as is the final battle. Especially
as the final outcome doesn’t feel like much of a win to the winner, let alone
anyone else.
We also get a hint of a villain
showing up soon, a couple of pages showing what he’s planning.
I definitely think I need to be
sticking with this series. It’s more fun than I expect, and I want to know what
happens with the characters. It’s a shonen superhero series, with a huge group
of characters, and I want to see what happens next.
