## Summary

### Prologue

The story begins with a prologue: one day in Quiq Quig, China, a "Luminescent Baby" was born with a unique power called a "Quirk". Then, around the world as time passed, humanity started to obtain Quirks and people realized that their dreams of being Heroes could become a reality with these powers. Now, 80% of the world is comprised of superhumans and people's dream of being heroes became a profession which is under the spotlight.

### The Origin of Dokusei Mional

The chapter begins with flashback of a young 4 year old Dokusei Mional with his friend Korin Kaminari, the son of Chargebolt and Earphone Jack. They both brag over their future quirks and if they we're going to be stronger than one another, which was a competition in their future years of becoming a hero.

In present time (Dokusei hadn't gotten into U.A.), a now a 14-year-old Dokusei is training with his quirk, Punch. A brief prologue is then shown: one day in Keikei City, China, a luminescent baby was born with a unique power. Then, as time passed, similar phenomena happened all over the world, and soon the majority of the population had obtained superhuman powers—known as "Quirks". Due to that, people were able to pursue heroism as a profession.

Once Dokusei is done with his training, he gets called to do a special assignment from his mother which was to deliver a mystery package to the mail. Once Dokusei had gotten ready his mother warned him specifically not to open the package which if he did then.. Dokusei's mom had stopped herself and told him to proceed, the assignment had begun.

As Dokusei makes his way he thinks back to his past friend, Korin Kaminari, as he had been killed due to some bandits. Dokusei wonders if the same will happen to him some day as he wonders off and gets lost. Without any way of contacting his mother, Dokusei had to remember his tracks in order to successfully make it to the post office, moments later he is escorted by a hero in training and returns to his mother that he had succeeded, Dokusei then rushes off to school.

At Dokusei's middle school, a teacher scolds the class, telling them it is time they think about their futures. He says he will hand out the printouts on the students' desired life-course, but knows they all want to be heroes. As the class starts using their Quirks, he reminds them they are not allowed to use them during school hours.

As the teacher begins to lecture them all about U.A. High, they begin to blabber about their quirks and how they would ace them, Dokusei's quirk called **Punch** is more of a melee power which isn't very useful and doesn't think of himself highly about going into U.A. High, only trying to follow the dream he had since childhood because he will not know if he can accomplish it if he does not try.

Elsewhere, a villain is on the loose, it is seen that the villain can multiply itself.

Back at the middle school, Dokusei picks up his notebook while reading about an incident in his phone, but as he gets ready to get home and take notes. Dokusei then has another flashback of memories with his past friend, Korin.

Elsewhere, In the area where the explosions are happening, the villain that was originally seen has put himself in public and is now rampaging. The only hero available for the job is Beast as he has some difficulties fighting the villain**s** as they begin to multiply. As coincidence, Dokusei and other people are spectating as they scream and wail for others to help, Dokusei's heart drops as he see's his number 1 fan which was Beast lose to the villains and without thought he leaps in and punches the 2nd Sludge Villain who is keeping Beast inside him. With Dokusei's punch, the damage isn't enough but as Beast see's the student try and free him he gets inspired to not give up and proceeds to defeat both the villains with a **Butterfly Effect**.

### The Origin of Dokusei Mional, Part 2

Dokusei rushes to his home to report to his mom the good news, of course, his mother doesn't like the actions he displayed because of her fear of him getting hurt. After an argument, Dokusei rushes up to his room and weeps onto his bed and loses encouragement of becoming a hero who can put a smile on somebodies face. After this, he starts to work on his notebook of heroes that he looks up to.

Dokusei walks towards school to only be interrupted by low level villains that start to harm him, Beast uses his Ape Leap to knock the trio of thugs down and sends them running. Dokusei is in utter shock and happiness as he sees his icon standing in front of him, Beast grabs Dokusei and proceeds to get away from the crowd of people into a shady alley. Beast explains why he 'collected' Dokusei and thanks him for yesterday only to talk about why he really needed to see him, Beast had thought Dokusei was worthy to inherit his quirk 'Beast' because of his brave heroics and Dokusei gladly accepts with tears balling down his face.

Beast begins to train Dokusei in order for his body to inherit Beast, saying that if he gave it to him now, his body wouldn't handle it. Beast privately trains Dokusei as a great way to strengthen his body for the next ten months, as U.A.'s Entrance Exam begins by then, wanting Dokusei to become a vessel by then.

After ten months of intense training, it is now the day of U.A.'s Entrance Exam. Dokusei's body is now more refined and muscular, which causes Beast to say that he is now a genuine vessel. Beast decides to give Dokusei his reward for having worked so hard for the last ten months, saying he has earned it fair and square: the Beast Quirk. Beast gives Dokusei a strand of tiger hair which should be consumed to gain the quirk, much to Dokusei's confusion. Beast says that it doesn't matter how he takes the quirk, but due to the Entrance Exam beginning in a few hours, he needs to inherit it immediately.

### Entrance Exam

Inside U.A., Present Mic explains how the Entrance Exam works, which begins with a practical test and then afterward a written test saying that their goal in the practical test is to dispatch as many villains (which are actually robots) as they can to earn a high score.

The practical test of the Entrance Exam begins but as it nears the end, Dokusei has a difficult time defeating robots with his new found Quirk. Dokusei decides to forget about using Beast and tries to eliminate robot's with his first Quirk, Punch, but as if on instinct Dokusei's fist changes into a "scratching position" and Dokusei eliminates 4 robots at once with his Tiger Scratch delivering a devastating scratch to the robot's, smashing it into pieces realizing he has used Beast for the first time, by leaping, which the spectators are in awe. Dobutsu, who is in the crowd watching, smiles.

### Starting Line

Dokusei, having used Beast for the first time, begins feeling the aftershock of the Quirk; his left arm is going through serious cramps. Though he is confused, he tried to use his Punch Quirk but switched to Beast, The practical test is declared over.

Recovery Girl, U.A.'s nurse, appears on the scene and heals student's who have been injured.

One week later, Dokusei receives a letter to say whether he made it into U.A. or not. Dokusei opens the letter, which reveals a screen with Deku on it (every person who participated got this). He then says that he is going to work at U.A. Deku then talks about Dokusei doing fine on the written test, then talks about that Dokusei's points which he earned on the robot destroying part of the exam.
