MHA: Vigilante's spin-off is finally here, giving heroism a new look with three new main characters.

Confrontation with eraser head continues

Error is right and apology given

When section 2 begins, we are confronted with a continuation of the previous section where Aizawa Shota, or Radre rubber, tries to get to the bottom of illegal use. Since Eraser Head is more an underground hero, not very fond of the limelight, Pop Step and Koichi are not familiar with him. Unlike the two young people, however, knuckle leaders seem to know the underground hero.

Although Eraser Head mentions that he is off-service, he feels obliged to stop all illegal use of properties as a pro hero and responsible citizen. Since Koichi and Pop Step have not been involved in any conflicts yet, they express their reluctance to be linked to knuckle joints, which radises currently regard as a villain.

Knuck leaders and Eraser Head quickly begin the battle, with Eraser Head which lands several strokes and quickly avoids all knuckleds attacks. As the battle continues, Eraser Head uses its Quirk Radergum to disable Knuckleduster's adopted improvement grave. But he has quickly proved to be wrong because his property is made ineffective.

Pop Step and Koichi are distracted by Salaryman who suspiciously runs away as the fight continues. It is during this time when Pop Step realizes that she saw the man before, during the search for suspected villain activity. This urges the two to run for the man and try to arrest him. But it takes some coax from pop to make Koichi move. But before they make any progress in running after the man, they are soon stopped by the three criminals from before.

The scene then cuts back to the fight with Eraser Head and Knuckleduster. However, Eraser Head quickly ends the struggle, takes responsibility for misunderstood the situation and apologizes for having attacked knuckle leaders. Since there had been no “incorrect use of properties”, he had no reason to catch knuckles because he had not broken any laws. This also introduces the fact that knuckle leaders are really incredible.

The effects of the trigger drug

When the two ended their struggle and apologized for the misunderstanding, Koichi had during the time been chased by the three criminals because they now had a thirst for revenge. But when this occurred publicly, Eraser Head was soon announced about the disturbance. Knuck leads came to the stage first, and quickly landed a brick to Tochi Moyuru and Soga's faces, while rader rubber caught sucked after he was beaten, the tongue stands out and showed the side effects of the trigger drug.

While this happened, Pop Step chased the suspected office worker before RAPT beat her, which caused Pop to bump into him and reveal the contents of his portfolio. Although the dolls may have worked as regular action figures, with a pop of the head, it soon revealed to be an injector for the trigger drug, which caused the office worker to experience gigantification, high over several tall buildings and catch pop steps, rapt and a nearby car. But while the use of this drug improved the office worker's weirdness, it also deteriorated his sense of reason, causing him to “play” with pop steps and rapt with his playing time.

In his attempt to save the pop step, Knuckleduster loaded on the now massive office worker. Without a seizure to help him, retalled the office worker and sent knuckle leaders who crashed into a LED sign. Fortunately, his determination paid off when the office worker released pop steps, which allowed her to flee. However, this led to a new dilemma: Pop -step could not save itself from the fall. Fortunately, with quick thinking, Koichi jumped up in the air with the help of a nearby building, giving her a pillow to activate her screams: leaps. Although Koichi originally considered becoming a hero, with pop steps in danger, he soon takes the stage.

Unfortunately, Koichi will soon leave in a tendency because the gigantic office worker will soon pay attention to Koichi. However, this also saves Koichi because he can now use his property: slide and slide, to jump into a pile of debris and dampen his fall. Before Koichi is trampled to death, Eraser Head uses its deletion case to disable the gigantification, save Koichi and prevent future destruction.

When the battle is finished and the police arrest the villains, Eraser Head has another word with knuckle leaders, thanks him for his help but to appreciate him for his actions. But by this, Knuckleduster soon acknowledges that Vigilantes “does things that pro heroes cannot do.” With this interaction between the two, the various fairies are soon revealed, giving more world -building to Vigilant series and evokes the question of which side is really correct in its interpretation of justice in the hero community.

Koichi and Pop Step take a while to recover from their chaotic battle. Koichi feels tired and uncertain about his abilities and makes pop questioning whether he is humble about his actions. With this, knuckle leads will soon take their way to the two, launch in mentoring and prevailed Koichi on the previous battle. At this, Koichi is still rejecting and wants to become Knuckleduster's apprentice. All this time Koichi had hidden his real feelings of wanting to become a hero; But with his real feelings that have now been revealed, Koichi faces the truth.

Koichi takes the stand as “The Crawler”

No longer in denial, koichi takes the stand

With Koichi now aboard with her hero training, with POP steps and knuckle joints in his team, we will soon be moving to Koichi now ready for battle, with new protective equipment for motorcyclists, glasses and even an ear piece for easier communication between his teammates. With this installation, Pop Step provides the information, while Koichi quickly gets to the stage and breaks up crushing between two aid school teachers, but uncomfortable, because Koichi still needs to get used to his new role.

Since Koichi had previously taken it to do good deeds around his neighborhood, many individuals noticed him the “nice guy.” As if it did not embody that spirit, Koichi probably began to act in this way as well. But now that Koichi is a hero in training during knuckle leads, Koichi is now introducing him as Crawler and establishing himself as a new hero. But when he responded to the incident with the middle schools and tried to establish himself, he is still, quite literally, went over, with knuckle leaders who needed to go in to prevent the middle schools from beating him.

Knuck joints, in their pursuit of information about the trigger drug, resorts to violence and requires to see the tongues of the average schools. This urges Koichi to intervene, which results in a humorous moment where knuckle leaders fail to understand why violence is not the solution here. Frustrated by the lack of progress, pop goes in and exploits her popularity to extract the necessary answers from the two boys. Right then, a new immediate villain appears, which causes Koichi to run into action when he rescues a child in the process.

Knuckleds showing their moves

With the civilians now in safety, knuckle leaders land a strong blow to the new quick villain with little success. But Koichi and Knuckleduster, who are now working together, quickly formulate a plan to dampen the villain while Pop Step explains what the Trigger drug is for the two average schools. But knuckle leaders take their attacks too far and leave the villain unrecognizable. With the villain that now cannot move, the effects of the drug are suspended, and the police are called to the scene and take in the villain to interrogate.

Shortly thereafter, the police and detectives Tsukauchi arrive and give an orientation about the origin of the new villains and asked which hero handled the villain. This indicates that the police are already aware of the new villains and Ideo Trigger Drug, even if the public remains uninformed. It highlights the lengths that Vigilantes goes to protect others, warns them of the danger and shows up on the site in the absence of heroes.

Since vigilantism is illegal and is considered a crime, they lack the essential education to confront these villains. Detective Tsukauchi points out that the captured villain suffered severe facial injuries, which can lead to the arrest hero for suspension to use excessive force. This highlights the difference between heroes and vigilantes, as there are specific protocols in terms of violence. Despite their noble intentions, the trio of Koichi's apartment returns, where they quickly discover that the news about their actions has spread online.

The second section of My hero Academia: Vigilantes brought more world -building specifically for the series and highlights important details that explained why vigilantism would be regarded as a crime and give a clear example of why this is so thanks to the heavy hand of knuckledus when it comes to villains. Although it took one and a half episode, Koichi finally follows his dreams. With the highlight in section 2, there are now forces that can prevent this from happening.
