Before we start, it's important to address this little misunderstanding. I notice that many readers have mistaken that Principal Nezu is part of this fanfic. I'm here to address he is not. The only UA staff here are All Might, Eraserhead, Midnight, and Snipe.
Also if you guys notice that I combine the episodes into a single chapter. I only plan to do that only in volume one, knowing that the episodes are short. Unlike volume two and beyond.
Oh, I forgot to mention this, in case the fanfic gets canceled, the fanfic is also available on Wattpad.
I know, I promise episode 8, titled Players and Pieces. I've been working on this chapter for over a whole month, and there are some things that I have forgotten during Editing Phase. So the next chapter would be Episode 8.
For any readers of MHA Reacts to Avatar the Last Airbender, it's coming after this chapter. However, at this time it is not over yet done. In case any reader wants to know the percentage it would be available at my Wattpad Channel, around the Conversation page. For now I'll let you guys know the percentage, it is 50% done.
I do want to apologize that This chapter was originally supposed to come out in July, but real life happens.
It's like that quote from the video game Life is Strange: "Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans."
PLEASE NO MORE COMMENTS ABOUT SUGGESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW REACTION SERIES, I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH. I'M NOT MAKING ANY MORE REACTION FANFICS!
MHA Watches RWBY.
Volume One: Episodes 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Remember the cast does see the episodes, it creates Mystery.
Episode Four: The First Step: 00:31 - 01:27
The new episode starts with the introduction of a ginger-haired girl and a boy in green.
"Uh, it's now morning, and we're introduced to a very energetic girl," Izuku said excited to see this new girl.
"I bet, she'll stop talking any time soon," Tenya said wondering about the day ahead.
A few moments later, in the washroom.
"She hasn't stopped talking… like the whole time." Ochaco feels concerned, not for Nora, but for herself.
A few moments later, fixing their sleeping equipment.
As Nora continues talking the Audience where exhausted by the endless jabbers of this one girl.
"I-I don't know how long I can take this…" Momo starts to tear up. "I'm not strong enough!"
"I just want to say to my parents that I love them, for the last time." Kosei cried towards this torture.
A few moments later, Eating pancakes.
Izuku is defeated.
He doesn't know if he would survive this or not.
There is no other choice but, to be honest, and let out his feeling. "Shoto." He plead for him as the boy listened to him. "I don't know how much more I can take… I just want to cry." he said tears pouring out in his eyes."
"Close your eyes, and take death's hand, and you'll be young and beautiful forever," Shoto said, ready for Death to take their lives.
A few moments later. At the locker room.
You thought the Heroes had it rough, the villains had it worst.
"Kill mmmeeeeeee!" Toga begs any members of the League to show her mercy. They would, but they didn't have the strength to do it.
"If I'm going to die from this bullshit, I just want to confess that… I never liked being in the league, the group has no future or any good ideas to plans to change society… The League of Villains is better off as a Gay Strip Club." Dabi said, "Endeavor, I hope I see you in Hell, you son of a bitch!"
Tomura believes that there wouldn't be a tomorrow, so he decided to do something he never once did. Pray. "I swear to you if you get me out of this. I swear to my living days that I'll stop being a villain. I'll devote my life to helping the community, donating to the less fortunate, Apologizing to everyone that I wrong, and–." Tomura was interrupted as the boy Ren, finally replied to the chick Nora.
I don't think sloths make a lot of noise.
.
.
.
The Audience cheered seeing that Nora finally stopped talking.
"I regret everything I said, It's time to purge!" Tomura said, breaking his promise to the man above.
Izuku cried in joy that Nora has stopped talking.
(I want to apologize if this joke offended anyone. Honestly, this reaction is based on a joke from the sitcom, How I Met Your Mother, from the season 2 episode titled, Lucky Penny)
01:27 - 02:34
After the introduction between Ren and Nora.
The scene showed the sisters, Ruby and Yang. Talking about the initiation, and a laughable subject about socializing.
What caught the attention of the audience was when Yang mentioned form Teams.
There were some eyebrow rises of course not knowing what Forming Teams had to do with the Initiation.
"Forming a team? I guess it's like a requirement to pass the initiation?" Midnight gave a possible theory.
"I don't know Nemuri, unless we get more info, we'll probably get a clear picture of the idea of forming teams," Snipe said.
Izuku wrote it down in his notebook, he and the rest of the students are curious about Team formation, and what it meant for Beacon Academy and the other Academia for Huntsmen and Huntresses.
They'll just have to wait a little bit longer.
02:34 - 03:02
After seeing Jaune freaking out about something?
The scene returns to Weiss talking to someone named Pyrrha. Once again the mention of teams was brought up.
They paid attention, as Weiss talks about Pyrrha like she was a huge mega superstar.
"The way that Weiss talks about Pyrrha made the redhead sound like she's famous." Mr. Compress said. "The way that Weiss talks about the girl's status, is like reading the status of some baseball star's very own baseball."
"I know what you mean. Baseball card has the player's status like their position, age, and hometown. Like Weiss mentioned that Pyrrha is strong and popular. She is like a model or is TikTok famous?" Spinner wonders too. Now curious about this Pyrrha girl.
03:02 - 03:16
Then the scene showed Weiss' inner self. Showing why she wants to be on the same team as Pyrrha.
"The strongest girl and the smartest girl teaming up, to get good grades and to be popular. Geez, Weiss is starting to remind me of Alison DiLaurentis." Toga said, comparing Weiss with the mean girl from Pretty Little Liars.
Dabi doesn't give a fuck to guess who that is and lets Toga be herself.
Stain on the other hand has other thoughts about Weiss. He wonders why would an heiress like herself want to be a Huntress.
Surely there is a reason for sure.
So far in this world, it's not like in their world with a bunch of Fake heroes, like Uwabami.
That bitch. She's more of a supermodel than, Superhero.
Stains want to see that Weiss is noble.
He just has to wait and see.
03:16 - 03:42
Things became more awkward when Jaune came and start flirting around with the two women.
"Geez, Jaune is likable and cute, but this scene is so embarrassing. I'm embarrassed for Jaune." Kyoka said feeling bad for Jaune.
Besides seeing the blond flirting, Pyrrha mentioned an important fact about teams, Especially when it comes to the number of people within the team.
"So, each team has four members. I'm starting to think that Teams are a normal set-up to the profession of Huntsmen and Huntress." Hawks said understanding a bit about the idea of teams in Beacon. It would make sense why others dislike the idea of Teamwork. Like his fellow Pro Hero, Mirko. She is known to the public, that she hates the idea of working in teams and Hero Teams and teaming up, seeing the idea as weak towards her own belief in strength.
Though this is not a world of Pro Heroes, but rather a world of Huntsmen and Huntress. Different world, with different rules.
03:42 - 03:52
Weiss broke the awkwardness, by bringing out Pyrrha's status. That she graduate from Combat School top of her class.
"You gotta say, that's very impressive. Here were are in our last year at UA, and we have no clue who is Valedictorian for our year." Mirio said giving an interesting thought towards his class year, knowing that He, Tamaki, and Nejire are about to graduate.
Tamaki playing with his thumbs talked to his best friend. "I don't think it's the three of us… I mean, we did a lot of good at Work Studies… but as for our academic education." Tamaki didn't continue scared of what he'll say.
Nejire on the other hand had no shame to say it. "Their shit! Our grades are shit."
"Negire!" Mirio said shocked never seen his friend act so bitter before.
03:52 - 03:55
The Audience also learned that Pyrrha is a champion in the world of fighting tournaments—four years in a row.
"Geez, She broke All Might's record," Izuku said. "Well, in fairness High School in Japan is only three years, starting in grades 10 to 12… but still Pyrhha is very impressive. Reigning champion for four straight years in a row."
"I guess, the high school system for this world is similar to Canada, starting from Grade 9 to 12," Tenya said understanding more about this world. "I guess, the Mistral Region Tournaments, is like an annual fighting tournament for the students of Sanctum."
"So like the Sports Festival, but I assume all Combat Schools have it too, or is it just Sanctum?" Tsuyu gave a good question.
Why does only Sanctum have a Tournament? While back in their world, even though there are plenty of heroes schools around the world, they don't hold their own Sports Festival that is broadcast on live television. Unlike UA. That the school broadcast it to the whole world to see, random kids that they don't know of, fighting each other to reach the top, while leaking information about them during the broadcast. For everyone to see, including the League of Villains.
How else did they know their names and quirks, The sports festival as a whole is giving info to the villains to know about just by watching it on their screens. For free.
What the hell is Principal Nezu and the past Principals thinking publicly streaming their student's quirks and their names to the world, just for the sake of entertainment? That's like Batman posting his contingency plans on Twitter, for everyone to read.
The sports festival sucks and is a bad idea, to begin with!
The only good thing good about it is the drama.
"Umm Tell, me again why do we broadcast the sports festival to the world to see, rather than have it private like other schools?" Snipe asks. "You don't see, Shiketsu leaking information about their students' powers and abilities to the whole world. Villains can use that time to make a contingency for the students once they graduate… Let's face it, they'll learn more about the students by watching it on their screens, and the students have three years to show off what they can do… The sports festival is why the villains were prepared for the camp incident. Why do we keep doing the event, just for the sake of entertainment?!"
Aizawa and Kayama shared a look. Their friend is right, why do they broadcast the sports festival for the sake of entertainment, and for the chance of internship? Their students can still Job hunt, they don't need the sports festival to help them make their resumes and hand them out to Hero Agencies. Heck, they'll end up doing it in the near future.
"Snipe… you have a great argument… We should talk to Nezu about this, and see the cons of having the sports festival to be publicly broadcast to the whole world."
"For the next batch of first years, They should make their resumes and hand them out to Hero Agencies for their internship and work studies." Midnight said, concerned for the future first years of Heroes-in-Training.
03:52 - 04:11
"Wait, she modeled for a breakfast cereal?" Itsuka raises an eyebrow. Recalling the worst internship she had with Uwabami.
"I think it's the reward after winning the tournament… I just thought it would be money or a new sports car?" Setsuna said giving a theory of how Pyrrha got the gig in the first place.
Then 1A got a thought.
Bakugo won the UA Sports Festival. Besides winning a trip to I-Island, what would happen if he end up posing for breakfast cereal?
His classmates just hid their laughter towards the thought of Bakugo having a cage match with the Trix bunny.
04:11 - 04:16
"Ain't that a bit too rash Weiss. Jaune has every right to be in Pyrrha's team, as much as you do." Ochaco said defending Jaune's pride.
04:16 - 04:44
After getting a compliment from Pyrrha, Jaune went back to flirt.
"You're getting too close to Weiss, Jaune. Pyrrha, a little help please." Kyoka said as her jaws drop as the boy went flying as Pyrrha fired her spear. "THAT'S A BIT TOO MUCH… BUT OKAY!"
Kyoka and the rest of the audience just sweat drops. Towards how Pyrrha Nikos handles boys.
04:44 - 04:54
In the next scene, the audience heard announce from Glynda about where the applicants will have their initiation is going to happen.
Aizawa and the rest of the UA staff raise a brow. "Did she just say, a cliff?"
04:54 - 05:10
After Pyrrha and Weiss lift.
Ruby and Yang picked up Jaune and he asked where did he go wrong with his flirting attempts.
"I agree with Yang, Snow Angel is not a good start. Ribbit" Tsuyu said.
Tokoyami is just glad he didn't call Asui, a lilypad when they met.
05:10 - 05:49
In the next scene, the applicants finally reached Beacon Cliff.
After listening to Ozpin's speech. The Pro Heroes and UA students have a clear understanding.
Unlike, the UA entrance exam having applicants without years of training and with a fresh start, would more likely be doomed from the start if they decided to do the Beacon Initiation, without going to any of the combats schools first. Gaining knowledge and wisdom to be a noble warrior and cunning hunter.
What their going to watch aren't 9th graders trying to earn a spot for the Hero Course, but rather skilled warriors with years of training, knowledge, and wisdom on their belts. With a harder difficulty of passing,
Then Glynda and Ozpin went on to mention the Team system. That during the initiation the applicant will get a mandatory partner. In which that partner and the rest of their teammates are going to be a part of the applicant for the next four years.
"Oh I see, and that makes Huntmens Academies different from Hero Schools," Itsuka said understanding. "In combat school, the student build themselves up as an individual. Now that they are in university they have to work with people they just met. It's kinda like in the real world."
Tenya agrees with the 1B's class president. "In real life outside school. It's normal to end up working with strangers that you haven't met." He continues. "I'm not just talking about Hero work, but in any job in general. It's normal for everyone to end up working with someone they get along with or not. In the end, the task matters more. To reach their goal. That goal could be reaching the hourly sale, rescuing civilians from a natural disaster, or slaying monsters in the forest."
"That does make sense like we were assigned a partner during our Battle Training with All Might. We were assigned a partner that was at the time a stranger to us." Shoto said. "Shoji and I"
"Or Tsuburaba and I for example," Neito added. "Now, unlike the battle training, the partnership is permanent, during their time in Beacon Academy."
"True, first the applicant has to find their partner, then the formation of teams might be explained later. Now the question is, how would they choose their partner during the exam?" Izuku wondered until Ozpin went to explain the how.
The audience listened to Ozpin about how the formation of partners worked during the Initiation.
All the students had their jaws drop after learning how the process worked. They had their theories, but they never guessed the process would end up being a fucking gamble.
"This is some Kakegurui BS over here!" Hanta shouted. "So, the first person they have eye contact with would be their partner for the next four years!"
Many of the students felt the same way as Ruby, like what are the chances they would end up being partners with someone they don't get along with.
Then they recall what Itsuka and Tenya mentioned. Getting along with that individual doesn't matter in the long run, the mission matters more.
Aizawa listened to Ozpin. He understood the initiations. In this world that has Grimm roaming the world. It would make sense that a team of Huntsmen and Huntresses needs to work together for the sake of the mission and to protect people from the wrath of the Grimm.
"So this exam is a huge gamble." He sighs. "May lady luck be in your favor."
To Aizawa, there is no logical way to see the Partnership process as reasonable.
No, it's a gamble. It's all about luck now.
Good or Bad luck, it doesn't matter, in the end, the applicants will get their Teams today.
Aizawa eyes turn red, and his hair rises defying gravity as he smiles. "Let's get our gambling freak on!"
(Just a Kakegurui reference by the end.)
05:54 - 06:04
"Wait for the chances of death during the initiation is a lot!" All Might gulped questioning the sanity of this initiation.
Aizawa sighs hearing All Might sounding like an idiot.
So he Karate chopped the former hero. "You idiot! Clearly, the students won't do anything risky to get themselves killed."
"Yes, the chances of death are out there, but clearly the students can defend themselves." Midnight said continuing for Eraserhead. "The applicants are trained warriors, and they signed up for this major. They of course knew the risk. It's the job of a Huntsman, and they're in Beacon to become Huntsmen and Huntress."
Snipe went to jab All Might as well. "He was the number one hero, now the number one has-been. You clearly need to get laid."
The UA staff laughed at All Might, while the man of the hour pouts. "What do you mean I need to get laid? I-I-I had sex before!" he lied.
"Since when!" Melissa gasped a laugh making her uncle vermillion from embarrassment. "I'm family, and I know there was never a woman in your life." she sassily snapped her fingers. All Might just hid his face from embarrassment.
06:04 - 06:27
The audience listened to the final instructions of Professor Ozpin.
"So to pass the initiation the applicant and their partner have to retrieve a relic and return to the cliff." Tenya repeat what Ozpin told them. "I guess, after returning to the cliff that's when the two applicants will be assigned to their team."
"The team is a unit of four members, the partners are in a group of two. This test makes a lot of sense, it's a simple addition." Denki said understanding how the process of teams works. "Surviving the Emerald Forrest is a whole different issue." Recalling the students' skills are at a different level as the Beacon applicants.
"I don't think there is anything to worry about. I do suggest don't see the situation as a simple walk in the park. This isn't going to be a cake, beside earning a spot in Beacon the applicants also have to be careful." Itsuka reminded. "The chances of death are out there, and maybe the chances of being killed too. Who's to say that Grimm isn't in the forest, we have no idea how dangerous the Grimm are, we don't anything about them. Like is there any form of intelligence or abnormal abilities, like quirks?"
Itsuka isn't wrong, none of the audience knows anything about the Grimm, the ones that Ruby has slain are just a surface layer, not the whole.
There are so many questions, like do they bleed, after killing them are they just reduced into rose petals, could they sell their meat to a prophet?
They don't know?
The topic of the Grimm can wait. They still have an initiation to watch and see who would Ruby ends up being partners with.
06:27 - 07:04
The next scene was Jaune questioning the landing strategy. The students question that too, what did the professor mean about landing strategy?
Until they saw Weiss being launched out through the air, and followed by the other applicants.
The students from 1A and 1B got their eyes widened like dinner plates and got their mouths widen. The villains laughed at their reactions.
"And click! I took a picture of their reactions. Hahaha! I'm so making this as my wallpaper." Toga said replacing her previous photo of a shirtless Izuku.
Izuku shivers after seeing Toga's wallpaper on her smartphone, that photo was taken back in the camp. Shoto is furies to know that he has a love rival.
The Big Three weren't surprised about the landing strategy. From their experience, they would land without any worries. What they worry about was Jaune.
The Big Three and the Pro Heroes notice that Jaune felt unsure about the landing strategy. Unlike him the rest of the applicants feel confident about the landing strategy, even Ruby seems confident about being admitted to Beacon two years early.
Surely Jaune knows to do a proper landing strategy.
Unknown to them, they don't know Jaune Arc.
07:04 - 07:16
As the rest of the applicants were launched into the Emerald Forest, the initiation begins.
Episode Five The First Step part 2: 00:33 - 00:41
The Initiation has begun, and Ruby killed a bird.
Koji Koda felt sad for the little birdie.
00:41 - 00:45
The audience watches as Ruby does her landing strategy by using her weapon to soften the blow and using her scythe to gain more momentum to swing around like Tarzan.
"Clever of how Ms. Rose in her landing strategy," Snipe said impress at the young Huntress-in-training.
Izuku wrote what Ruby did with her scythe and the laws of physics.
00:45 - 00:50
The next scene was with Weiss and her landing strategy. Using her glyphs as a platform to stand on.
The Audience wonders what powers Weiss has, and what it calls in their world. If they're not quirks what are they?
Questions like, are their powers genetic or something else?
The majority wants to believe that her powers are genetic and easy to understand. They're not ready to accept the lore about Semblances.
00:50 - 01:11
The scene shifted to the other applicants like Ren, using his weapon to slow down his momentum.
A page of Izuku's notebook glowed, he sees the page and saw what it was written on. "So Ren's weapons are called StormFlower. His melee weapons are daggers, they are also equipped with extendable cables meant for grappling or ensnaring his opponents. " Izuku explained.
Aizawa and Snipe are impressed with Stormflower and what the weapon can do.
Izuku continues to explain. "His firearms are machine pistols, he has regular loads and dust bullets."
Izuku is impressed with the weapon, he would like to see Ren in action to have a better understanding of how he fights with StormFlower.
After learning about StormFlower, the audience gets to see Yang using her weapon to give her a boost. Then another page glowed in Izuku's notebook.
The audience already knows that her gauntlets are also shotguns, but they never knew what are they called. "So they're called Ember Celica, and yeah, like we assumed earlier when she was in that dance club her weapons are shotgun gauntlets. I just wonder how does the trigger work?" Izuku stopped as more written words are getting filled in on the page. "Oh, apparently her punches create the trigger for the shotgun aspect."
"Her melee weapons are her fist. From what we saw back at the club, She isn't an amateur fighter. I have no doubt she can defeat Grimm with her first alone." Snipe said.
"She's going to fight Grimm with her bare fist and her shotguns, not even a blade. That's so manly!" Eijiro said, and Tetsutetsu agrees with him.
01:11 - 01:38
The next scene shifted to the Amazon, Pyrrha Nikos. As she landed on top of a tree. The audience also saw her weapons.
Once again, and not the last time a page glowed in Izuku's notebook. He read out loud what Pyrrha's weapons were. He was surprised by what her weapons can do. "That's impressive. Her weapons are called, Miló and Akoúo̱. They are a javelin-sword-rifle combo with a shield. The melee weapon Milóis the Javelin-Sword-Rifle combo, while Akoúo̱ is the shield, and the shield is just that. A weapon that protects the meister from enemy blows."
The audience watched a bit of Pyrrha and wonders how is she going to succeed in earning her spot in Beacon, after learning her status from Weiss earlier. Being an undefeated champion back in her home kingdom.
Until they spotted Jaune flying carelessly after being launched.
"His going to die, I can't wait to see his blood," Toga said as she frown as Pyrrha threw her javelin and saved Jaune in the process. "Oh poo, you suck. Stupid Amazon." the psycho whines.
01:38 - 02:19
The scene shifted back to Ruby running to find her sister.
"Oh yeah, the partner system of the initiation. The first person that they eye contact with would be their partner." Izuku said, recalling that this part of the initiation is a total gamble, he was just glad UA didn't have a similar cast.
"That's right, and according to Professor Ozpin that the teachers are watching over the applicants from their tablets. I don't think they'll be able to fool the teachers, only because they end up partnering up with someone that they don't get along." Tenya said recalling the rules.
Itsuka agrees with her fellow class president and 1A's nerd. "The two of you aren't wrong, this part of the exam is a gamble, the odds aren't in the applicant's favor. Unless they knew each other before the exam."
Nirengenki agress with her president. "The chances of Ruby being partners with Yang are not a lot, as you guys recall Yang was using her Ember Celica to give her a boost. She is further from Ruby when it comes to distance wise." 1B's vice president said. "I'm sorry Ruby, you might as well pick a partner before you have eye contact with that applicant."
The students watched as Ruby thinks of other possible partners.
Ruby's thoughts of Jaune as a partner.
Many thoughts have risen since the mention of Jaune being Ruby's partner.
"Well, the two got along the previous day," Hanta said. "We can't judge his skills until he goes into action."
Many agree with Sero. Jaune got into Beacon for a reason. He is probably like the rest of the applicants, a fellow warrior.
Ruby thought of Blake as a partner.
The topic went dark and negative. Knowing what the Heroes feel about a criminal like Blake.
Ochaco hears to let those words that the Hero side is thinking. "Oh Hell no! That's a bad idea, Ruby, stay away from villains like her!" the girl said venom in her tone. However, others on the hero side agreed with her.
"Uraraka is right. Blake cannot be trusted, Ruby." Kyoka said with a spike in her tone. "If I have it my way, I would report about Blake to Professor Ozpin. I'm sure the headmaster would be interested in what I have to say."
The rest of the students and the Hero side had made up their minds. They only see Blake for what she is, a criminal, a villain, a girl believing that she can be a Huntress but the Hero side knows that she will always be a criminal.
However, some villains like Stain and Spinner don't see that. They believe that Blake can be a whole new person, escaping her criminal past, and atoning for her sins as a Huntress.
Both Stain and Spinner are angry at the future Heroes-in-training, after hearing what they said. Their society has brainwashed future children into biased beliefs toward good and evil. They never grew up believing in the gray side of life, and because they never grew up being taught about the gray side, it made the gray side feel like it was a myth or it doesn't exist.
They hope that Blake would be the one to show them the gray side.
'I believe you can be a Huntress, Blake.' Thought by both Spinner and Stain.
02:19 - 02:36
Trying to figure out who would be the possible partner of Ruby, the audience watch as the girl in the red hood has stopped to lay eye contact with the Heiress, Weiss Schnee.
Feeling dumbfounded Tenya Iida's sweat drops towards what happened. "Mr. Aizawa is right, the partnership process is a gamble," he said not expecting both Ruby and Weiss to end up as partners.
"Professor Ozpin did say, the first person that they lay eye contact with becomes their partner," Ochaco explained the situation.
Midoriya and Bakugo stared at each other. They stopped after shivering at the thought of ending up as partners if UA had a similar entrance exam as Beacon does. They were just glad that they didn't end up being coming partners let alone a team for the next two years in UA. (I say two years, because of the current timeline in the Anime. It's not like it's the first week of UA anymore.)
However, Weiss has the same thoughts as the two knuckleheads, as it's shown in the scene Weiss turned around.
It was clear to the audience that Weiss wants Ruby to be her partner, let alone a teammate.
"Wait, where is she going?" Pony asked.
"Umm Pony, I don't think Weiss wants to be Ruby's partner… but she can't do that according to Professor Ozpin has the forest monitored, Surely, Ozpin won't allow Weiss to change partners. Wait, Can she?" Itsuka asked unsure knowing that Beacon isn't UA. The Teachers on the other hand have no clue. They know Nezu, but Ozpin is an enigma.
02:36 - 03:00
As Weiss walks away from Ruby, she was met with a conundrum, an ultimatum that the Heiress had to choose who her partner would be. The perky energetic girl in red, or The blond doofus.
Toga laughed, "Who would you rather pick Weiss, The Perky energetic girl in red, or the blond doofus."
"Hey, Regina Greoge, enough with the mean nicknames already!" Spinner said offended at the nicknames that blond psychotic is giving out. Reminding him of the awful and racist nickname that was given to him growing up. 'They called me Reptile, like the character from Mortal Kombat. Some perverts even asked me to turn invisible like the character to take pictures of girls in the girl's changing room. I refused, and I can't go camouflage, but the bullies overpowered me and shoved me to one of the girl's lockers. It wouldn't be long until the girls finished their water polo practice, and stripped off their bathing suits to change. That was when they found me with the video camera that the bullies gave me. The girls beat me up, the school principal expelled me. That's why I never finished High School. Who knew that insults from Toga would trigger an old memory like that? I wish Blake doesn't have a similar past.' He thought.
In the end, the Heiress picked Ruby over Jaune.
"Cheer up the sport, I'm sure you'll get a partner," Eijiro said cheering up Jaune.
(Now thinking about Jaune in Volume One reminds me of Ron Stoppable from Kim Possible. Does anyone else see the connection too?)
03:00 - 03:19
It wasn't long but Jaune later got his partner Pyrrha Nikkos.
"See, if you keep your head up high, life is going to get better, my bro," Eijiro said cheering for Jaune.
"I going to write down, who are the partners. So far I have written Ruby Rose and Weiss Schnee as partners. Now I can add Jaune Arc and Pyrrha Nikkos, it has been very interesting partnerships I say." Izuku said as he gets ready to write the next partnerships.
The Heroes and the teachers have other thoughts in their minds.
They couldn't stop looking at Jaune, more importantly, the Javelin that save his own life.
"That was an interesting throw from Pyrrha, and to save someone's life with a deadly weapon like her javelin," Mirko said impress at the Amazon. "The girl didn't even hesitate or second guess her decision. She shifted her weapon to its Javelin form, aimed at Arc, then just launch it flying. She did all that with no doubt of killing him, she was 100% sure that she'll save him."
The rest of the Heroes agree with Mirko, even All Might was impressed with the Amazon.
Snipe too was impressed. "I think, Ms. Nikkos could be a better marksman than I am. She threw that javelin with only her skills, she doesn't even have a homing quirk like mine." The Hero continues. "Even If I threw a Javelin, I have zero training or experience to use a javelin… In all honesty, even with my quirk, I don't think I would be able to save Jaune with a Javelin… I believe I would have killed him with her weapon with all the attention of saving him too." Snipe believes that the Amazon would have beaten him in near seconds, up close or up far.
Hakegure and Shoji heard the teachers. The face Snipe during the final exam. They struggled facing Snipe, in theory— no, they have to face the fact that Pyrrha Nikkos is better than them.
Izuku overheard too, he believe he couldn't do the same without killing Jaune with a Javelin. He has zero skills with a javelin, One For All might give him the boost that he needs, but like he stated he doesn't have the skills to wield a javelin. He would end up killing Jaune in the process.
He also noted that Pyrrha launch her javelin from a very far distance and Jaune was a moving target. Pyrrha could be with no doubt a challenge for Midoriya.
And To the villains, as great as their quirks are, bullets and blades can still kill them, and this Huntress has no hesitation to hunt them. She might be a model for a breakfast cereal, but the Amazon is no joke.
03:19 - 03:48
The scene showed that Ruby is trying her best to be Weiss' friend. The audience was that Ruby was fast.
"Woah, I had no clue that Ruby is that fast… are those rose petals?" Neito said questioning where the petals come from.
From what the audience knows so far that this is a world in which Quirks don't exist, but they see the abnormal happening. They saw the Glyphs from Weiss, the Shadow Clones from Blake, and Yang going super saiyan. (Once again, reference to the song Burn, not DBZ.)
Now they see Ruby being fast, and she leaves rose petals by doing so.
They're starting to remember her fright with the Wolf-like-Grimm. They recall that she was fast, but they just thought it was the momentum caused by Crescent Rose, now they believe maybe it wasn't just the recoil from Crescent Rose.
"Do you guys think that Ruby has some kind of Speed quirk?" Tenya asked curious about what Ruby could do.
"I want to say 'Yes' on the 'Speed', but 'No' on the 'Quirk'. This world has a lot more questions than there are answers." Aizawa said giving a possible answer.
It will only be due time for MHA Cast to learn about aura and semblances.
03:48 - 04:12
The Heroes went pale.
When Weiss is all alone, and is confronted by the Grimm.
The audience has seen Weiss fight the Arma Gigas, they're about to see the Heiress fight the Beowolves.
"Things go interesting," Toga said expecting to see Grimm's blood.
She'll be in for a surprise to see that there isn't.
Episode Six: The Emerald Forest Part One: 00:31 - 00:55
The audience watches as Yang tries to find someone to be her partner.
"I guess this is the downside of the initiation. The area is the whole forest, finding someone to be their partner is hard." Itsuka said recalling the Entrance Exam felt easy when it comes to finding another applicant to be her partner if the exam requires a teammate. "After seeing Weiss, Yang could accidentally call out a Grimm."
Tomura grinned ear to ear, hoping that Goldilocks would do so.
All of sudden the Spirit of temptation went to grope Tomura's pecs.
"What the Hell, who did that!?"
00:55 - 01:21
Right on cue, Two new Grimm went to talk to Yang, instead of appearing like wolves they end up looking up like bears.
Izuku noticed that his notebook glowed. When he openned it there was a fully written page written in red ink.
It mentioned that the type of Grimm that Yang is fighting is called an Ursa.
"So the Grimm that Yang is fighting is called Ursa, and their bear-like." Izuku said trying to sketch Ursa on his notebook.
The audience watched as Yang just casually dodges Ursa, and still have a conversation. Apart of Aizawa wants to say to Yang that she shouldn't be careless when fighting Grimm. The reason why he didn't is because Yang is a woman, an adult, not a teenager like his students. She and the rest of the applicants are college students and have years of experience to boot.
At this point, the only person he has to look out for is Ruby, she being only 15, and was pushed head.
Or maybe he doesn't have to?
In the end, they're not training to be Pro Heroes, just Huntsman, and Huntress... Surely the students are going to learn a lot from this world.
What Shota has to do is trust and have fate towards the young Huntresses and Huntsmen in training. Like he did with 1A when they took the provisional exams. They'll pass on their own, and they'll fail on their own.
Just don't get yourself or others killed.
01:21 - 01:48
Like a flip of a coin.
Yang's mood changes from calm and casual into, angry and aggressive as she beat up Ursa, and the audience was impressed with her strength. Seeing a couple of trees being destroyed.
"Boo, you mess up. Never ruin a girl's hair. Kapish." Mina snapped her fingers at the defeated Ursa.
"Incredible strength." Izuku wonders how strong is Yang, he notices Yang when goes 'Super Saiyan' with her hair. Her natural Lilac-colored eyes turned red too.
01:48 - 02:01
However Yang didn't kill the other Ursa, but it was rather been done by the Bonnie with the Black Bow.
Seeing her brought pure spitefulness to the Heroes when they saw her.
To Ochaco it was a lot more when Blake and Yang shared eye contact with each other, making them partners for the next four years. "Oh Hell no! Professor Ozpin, you should forbid this partnership, she's a criminal for Pete's sake."
"Uraraka, please calm down."
"Shut it, Meg!" She shouted at Midoriya, as she sat down still angry at the fact that Blake is Yang's partner.
However, Stain and Spinner were happy to see that Blake had found herself a partner.
01:48 - 02:19
The next scene shifted back to Weiss with her rapier getting to fight Ursa.
Izuku notice that his notebook glowed showing information about her sword.
"So Weiss' sword is called Myrtenaster, and Snipe sensei is right. It is a rapier and revolver combo. Instead of loading them with regular revolver bullets, she loads dust bullets." He continues to read get more info about Dust Bullets." Oh, I see, So There are in fact Dust Bullets that work like an actual bullet. I guess if Ruby needs a sniper dust bullet. The gun would fire the bullet, but the impact would be different depending on what type of Dust it is. However, Weiss has a different chamber of dust bullets. Due to fact the design of Myrtenaster. The revolver aspect of the weapon doesn't work the same way as Snipe sensei's revolver." Izuku stopped as the mentioned teacher continues for him.
"I think I have a better understanding of Myrtenaster." He took out his own pistol. "Let's say I fired my pistol right now. A bullet would come out from my gun.
Izuku nodded as he continues to read the info that was given to him. "That is correct sir. However, the type of bullet that Weiss used was turned into powder." He stopped wondering how her bullets work on the revolver aspect of Myrtenaster. Now knowing that it doesn't fire like Snipe's revolver.
He recalls back when Weiss fought the Arma Gigas. He remember what she did, and created a strong ice attack.
From what he sees from dust and from what he has written so far. Dust isn't something to scoff at. Dust is powerful, and that's just from bullets. He wonders how strong dust is, from its raw material.
Izuku recalls that Weiss can create glyphs, and during her fight with the Arma Gigas, her white glyphs change color.
'Does Dust have a different effect on their powers?' Izuku wonders the same way about their quirks.
Right before Weiss is about to hit the Grimm, Ruby came out of nowhere and appeared right in front of her target.
"Weiss stop!"
"Ruby, Look Out!"
"Allahu Akbar!" Ochaco shouted her war cry. Her friends just gave an odd look at the gravity girl.
After a very long explanation. Poker went to grope Tomura's pecs, again.
(Just a little reference from Family Guy season 18, episode 20)
02:19 - 03:09
Many things happened in this scene.
After noticing Weiss was about to charge at Ruby, she stopped her charge, and her attack cause a Fire. Which would make the fighting a lot more difficult if they have to pay attention to the Grimm and the Fire.
The Pro Heroes praise that fleeing with Ruby is the best choice that she made. Fighting the Grimm with Fire spreading isn't a good idea. If they stay, they would mostly be trapped by the fire and later be killed.
Now here they are now, arguing.
"Yes, Young Rose, I don't doubt that you and Young Schnee would have slain those Grimm. However, you and Young Schnee have caused a fire. That fire would have caged you both and be the ones being killed instead" All Might said Praising Weiss while scolding Ruby.
Speaking of the Fire, it did take the attention of the Todorokis, and I do mean all the members present. Enji, Dabi, Fuyumi, Natsu, and Shoto.
True, that Fuyumi and Natsu's quirks are closer to their mothers, but fire played a huge part of their family.
They notice that Weiss uses fire dust to start that fire, and the way she wields it was different from how the Todoroki Family use their flame.
Enji recalls the criminal in Glass Slipper. He figures that Fire Dust was like taming an obedient animal, rather than being wild.
The Todorokis decided to have closer attention to dust and how it can be used in this world, and perhaps they can use dust in their favor.
03:09 - 03:42
The audience listened to the argument of Rwby and Weiss, and it was completely pointless for the audience's point of view. Then again, this argument was only for Ruby and Weiss.
As the girls kept going to find the relics. Ruby with all of her anger went to slice a tree. Which got the audience's eyes widen when they saw a giant black feather.
Denki gulped. "I hope they are careful now, and work together?" he said worried for the two.
Author Here.
Bare with me, the next reaction is not going to be easy to write. While Pyrrha explains Aura to the Audience. Ren will be fighting a giant grim. I hope this reaction would look very nice and easy to understand.
03:42 - 04:00
The next scene shifted back to Jaune and Pyrrha.
"So they're aware of the Grimm fighting the other applicants," Snipe said hearing the gunfire in the distance.
"It is very important to be vigilant. Grimm is very different from villains." Aizawa said impress at the Amazon.
As they continue their journey, Jaune got hit by a branch.
"Don't worry Jaunie boy, it's just a scratch. I'm sure the ladies would still like your handsome face." Hitoshi said making one Pikachu very jealous and Shinso noticed. "What?!" The human Pikachu just rolls his eyes. "Denki, it's not like that!"
"Trouble in paradise."
"Heyo!" Jiro and Mina shared a laugh making fun of the couple.
"It's not funny you two!" Hitoshi shouted at the girls. As they hide their giggles.
04:00 - 04:09
Pyrrha went to asked a question that surprise the Audience.
"Why didn't you activate your Aura?"
"Do you know what Aura is?"
The word Aura peeked their attention.
Of Course, the MHA cast doesn't know what Aura is, especially towards a society that gave the spotlight to Quirks.
Asking them about Aura is like asking the science of the existence of a soul. Which carries no science but rather faith and belief.
They were speechless, unsure of what to say.
However their words aren't needed for what they're about to learn, and what makes their quirks different from Aura and Semblances.
Izuku quietly gets ready to write down some notes, and Katsuki is eager to know more as well. Not just for education but for the sake of his beliefs about power and strength.
Knowledge is power as they say.
04:09 - 05:55
The audience listened carefully to Pyrrha's explanation towards Aura, and what it means to this world. Like how quirks have a huge role in their world.
Aura is the manifestation of our soul. It bears our burdens and shields our hearts. Have you ever felt you were being watched without knowing that someone was there?
With practice, our Aura can be our shield. Everyone has it, even animals.
From the first explanation. The audience got an understanding.
Bakugo understood as well, and he understand that their world is different from his own. While quirks can be understood from science and genetics. This world has Aura a manifestation of the soul.
The topic of a Soul is foreign not just to him, but to society as a whole. Ever since quirks, the practices of religion went down. He knows that there are still people who want to believe that there is more in life than science and logic.
But not Katsuki, he is a man of science and logic.
However, he is also a great student. He is willing to listen and understand this world's abilities with the use of their souls.
Meanwhile, why Pyrrha explains, the also sees Lie Ren fighting a snake-like Grimm.
Jaune asked an important question, does the Grimm have Aura too?
No, The monsters we fight lack a soul. They are creatures of Grimm, the manifestation of anonymity.
They are the darkness, and we are the light.
They listened more to the explanation but Pyrrha went on to mention that The Grimm isn't the only reason why Huntsmen and Huntresses fight.
It's not about why, it's about knowing.
Understanding dark and light helps us manifest our Aura. Everyone has some of both.
When Pyrrha mentioned that Everyone has both light and darkness. The villains understood the most, and they believe that the Pro Heroes will never believe their own beliefs that society had spoon-fed them.
However, Stain and Spinner believe that it is not too late for the students to see the gray side. That Everyone has both light and darkness.
By baring your soul outward as a force, you can deflect harm. All of our tools and equipment are conduits for Aura. You protect yourself and your soul when fighting.
Slowly processing this new information the audience starts to understand Aura.
Including a truth of detail that All For One has to expect.
Auras and quirks aren't the same. It is something that he cannot take from a person.
Quirks are genetic and scientific, while Aura in his understanding is more spiritual, based on a person's soul.
"Oh I understand now, Their abilities aren't like ours which is genetic. To my beliefs is more spiritual." Reiko Yanagi said, being a person whose own interest is the supernatural, or in this case.
Aizawa and Midoriya too start to understand, slowly. Accepting something that isn't logical or scientific can be very difficult to accept.
Taking a leap of faith isn't easy for them. Though seeing is believed, and they see Ren's fight with the two-headed snake. He demonstrated how Aura works in this world.
There were not a lot of comments, some were still processing what they just learned. It will take time for this to cool down and accept that Aura is the way of this world, not quirks.
After an explanation of Aura, they also watch Ren's fight with the Grimm. In some way, he demonstrated Aura, making the understanding of Aura a little bit easier for the minds of many.
05:55 - 06:40
Pyrrha places her hand on Jaune's cheek and does something to Jaune.
For it is in passing that we achieve immortality. Through this, we become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all, infinite in distance and unbound by death. I release your soul, and by my shoulder protect thee.
The audience was unsure about what they had seen, but it was Pyrrha who made things clear for them.
"Wait, Pyrrha unlocked Jaune's aura?" Ochaco questioned what happened.
"I believe so, Ms. Nikkos use her aura to unlock Jaune's very own. Hence why Jaune's cheek healed itself. It was the cause of Jaune's aura that did the healing."
"Incredible." All Might said what everyone was thinking.
They have witnessed an ability that isn't a quirk, but something different base on faith and beliefs. By unlocking Jaune's soul, it unlocked Jaune's aura.
"Incredible indeed." after what Izuku and the rest have seen so far, they wondered if they too can unlock their auras from their souls.
This was just the first slice of Aura, but not the whole cake. It is only the beginning of many steps about the lore of Aura. and eventually Semblances.
06:40 - 06:56 (End of episode.)
After the defeat of the Snake Grimm. Ren had met his partner.
Nora.
"This is awesome, now their partners." Izuku wrote down the partnerships between Ren and Nora. Including Blake and Yang.
As the next episode is about to start.
Episode Seven: Emerald Forest Part 2: 00:30 - 01:10
The episode starts with Glynda Goodwitch and Professor Ozpin.
The Pro Heroe and Teachers heard Glynda's words about Jaune Arc. They have seen the other applicants in action and Jaune's skills were lacking, unlike the others.
The initiation is a lot more dangerous than the Entrance Exams that happened in Hero Schools. This is a university-level entrance exam. They know that it would be a lot more difficult than the ones, such as UA High.
They guess it doesn't matter right now.
To pass the initiation, the applicants need to capture a single relic. They believe that the relics are limited and that not everyone will get the chance of getting one.
Instead, question the lack of skills of one person. They need to focus on the task in front of them.
01:10 - 02:06
The scene shifted back to Ruby and Weiss. Showing that the girls are lost, and once again they end up arguing.
Class 1A watched the argument, and they try not to interrupt. It is a private argument and listening to both of them would be rude.
It would be a lot rude if they compare those two with Midoriya and Bakugo.
They do see the comparison but the only similarities are the fact that they argue.
The idiotic duos of Class 1A see it differently. As much as they argue the difference between Bakugo and Midoriya compared with Ruby and Weiss, both Rose and Schnee have just met, while Bakugo and Midoriya have a history.
Midoriya felt saddened by the words that Weiss said to Ruby by the end of the argument, and Ruby was right. You don't even know her, and yet you were able to make her feel small.
Like those early years when Bakugo makes Midoriya feel small, don't forget the horrible nickname of Deku.
Izuku just hope that they can get along, besides being partners with each other for the next four years.
02:06 - 02:35
The next scene shifts to Blake and Yang, seeing that they reach a temple.
"I believe this is the place that Ozpin had mentioned," Neito mentioned.
As the girls went to look around, they and the audience notice the relics, being Chess Pieces.
"Are these the relics?" Sen Kaibara asks.
They look closely to confirm that they are chess pieces, however, they don't see any pawns, just the unique pieces of the game. Jurota recognizes these pieces. "The ones that I'm seeing are both the white and black versions of, The Rook, The Bishop, The Knight, The Queen, and of course, The King."
"Do you guys think, this is how Beacon assembles teams? By picking up two pieces of the same symbol." Yosetsu making a theory. "In a way, Ozpin could also go with Playing Cards besides chess. The red and black card of, Ace, Ten, Jack, Queen, and King."
"It's a strong maybe, but I want to say yes, you can also add the Joker card. There are two jokers in every deck." Itsuka said, getting some understanding of the relics.
Now the bigger question is, which would they pick?
02:35 - 03:04
The next scene was Jaune and Pyrrha entering a cave.
"They are clearly in the wrong place, they are nowhere near the relics," Itsuka said.
"Anyone else craving for Hot Brownie Sundae… because I am hungry," Setsuna mentioned as the New Host of the Manga gave them all a Hot Brownie Sundae, with Cotton Candy, and German Chocolate Ice Cream as the scoops.
03:04 - 03:21
The scene shifted back with Blake and Yang, picking the Knight Piece.
While that's happen happening the villains are enjoying their sundaes.
"You know what we villains should do?" Dabi said getting the attention of the other villains.
"What?"
"If we go to New York, and just film ourselves eating Shawarma. Just a villain group eating Shawarma."
"That sounds like a movie reference… Why the hell not, Let's do it." All For One said enjoying his sundae.
03:04 - 03:25
The next scene shifted back to Jaune and Pyrrha.
As the audience finishes their sundaes, they notice that the applicants have found a giant glowing gold object. Knowing what the real relics are, the Heroes wonder where they are and what is that glowing object.
"You know what would be great for hot fudge sundaes, marshmallows," Ochaco said as she finished her sundaes.
Bakugo finished his. "There wasn't something we could have discussed besides enjoying eating ice cream sundaes, with the villains like we're a couple of BFFs… Did I die, and be reborn into some nerd's fanfiction or something… it does feel that way."
03:25 - 03:38
Then the false relic moved.
"Jaune, that is not the relic," Midoriya said scared for Jaune.
"Reeeeaaaaally, I had no idea." Tomura made fun of Midoriya by sounding dumb. "We know that, Dumbass!"
03:38 - 03:46
It hasn't been revealed yet as Jaune screamed like a girl and it can be heard from a distance.
The villains laughed at Jaune's feminine scream.
03:46 - 04:27 (Last scene of the Chapter)
Then it was revealed that what the golden object was attached to was a giant Scorpion-like Grimm.
The Audience gulped that for the first time they saw a grim of this size, especially knowing the actual size of a scorpion is never this big.
The Pro Heroes wonder how the applicants such as Jaune and Pyrrha would kill something this large. The Pro Heroes themselves have a clue if they were in this position instead of the applicants.
They believe they'll see later on.
Before the scene shifted to the next episode.
Sweatdrops form on the heads of every audience as they see Ruby falling from the sky.
"Is Ruby falling… from the sky," Jiro asked the elephant in the room.
Apologize once again.
Originally, this chapter was suppose to have episode 8. I decided to give episode 8 its own chapter, being a longer episode. By removing Episode eight from this chapter it made the editing much easier for me.
Username 060896: Dear Reader, can you please stop giving out suggestion towards MHA reacts to Berserk. The reason why I wouldn't do Beserk is because I never seen it.
Ericsofly2: I'm sorry reader, but I never seen that anime too, I would love too, but I haven't given my time to give it attention, and yes, I know Asta is really hot.
