{Echoes of destiny}

After returning to U.A. High School from their two-day holiday, Nozomi Akatsuma and her classmates are greeted with a mix of routine school life and the unique challenges that come with being in a hero academy.

Day 1: Back to Routine

The students of Class 1-A gather in the classroom, buzzing with stories from their short break. Nozomi, still feeling the high from her victory at the Sports Festival, is welcomed back with cheers and admiration from her peers. Even Katsuki Bakugo gives her a nod of respect, acknowledging her strength.

Aizawa sensei tells the class that this has a lot to do with the Pro-Hero draft picks and because they are only first years any offers can be taken back before they graduate. Then he shows them the draft results, where nozomi Akatsuma and Katsuki Bakugo lead the class with thousands of heroes wanting to recruit them. Denki is discouraged by the large gap between the thousands of nominations they received and only the hundreds he and the others received. Kyoka Jiro points out that Katsuki had the most offers despite losing to nozomi, and Momo Yaoyorozu congratulates him. Hanta Sero claims that pros must have been reluctant to work with Katsuki because of his demeanor during the awards ceremony, to which he replies that if he scared them then they are just weak. Ochaco Uraraka is excited that she and Tenya received offers and Minoru Mineta points out that Izuku didn't receive any because of the reckless way he fought against Shoto.

Although like Izuku, some students didn't receive any offers, Shota informs the class that they will all spend a week interning with Pro-Heroes. While Shota reminds them of the importance of choosing their hero names, Midnight arrives and tells the class that she will have final approval over the names. After she hands out canvases to write on, Midnight tells the class they must present the names they've chosen. Most of the class are too nervous to go up, so Yuga Aoyama reveals his name first. He chooses "I can not stop twinkling" and although most of his peers find the name strange, Midnight simply shortens it to Can't Stop Twinkling and moves on. Mina Ashido tries to choose "Alien Queen" as her label, but Midnight doesn't allow her to compare herself to the villain from Ridley Scott's movie franchise causing the class to worry. Tsuyu Asui picks the title "Rainy Season Hero: Froppy" and the class responds cheerfully since she chose a normal name in comparison to the initial two.

Eijiro Kirishima goes up next and reveals he chose to brand himself after his idol "Crimson Riot" by choosing the namesake "Sturdy Hero: Red Riot". This reminds Izuku of his childhood, where he chose many playful hero names after his idol, All Might. He loved choosing those names as a child but realizes he cannot do so now with so much training left to do in order to be compared to All Might. Kyoka notices Denki Kaminari struggling to choose a name and suggests "jamming-way". Denki likes it until Kyoka admits it's just a way of making fun of him. Then she goes in front of the class and announces that she's chosen "Hearing Hero: Earphone Jack" as her moniker

Mezo Shoji chooses "Tentacle Hero: Tentacole", Hanta Sero selects "Tape Hero: Cellophane", Mashirao Ojiro picks "Martial Arts Hero: Tailman", Rikido Sato takes "Sweets Hero: Sugarman" and Mina Ashido changes her name to "Pinky". Midnight loves the chosen titles and continues to approve the others with Denki Kaminari choosing "Stun Gun Hero: Chargebolt", Toru Hagakure picking "Stealth Hero: Invisible Girl", Momo Yaoyorozu selecting "Everything Hero: Creati" and Shoto Todoroki electing to simply use his first name. Fumikage Tokoyami choose "Jet Black Hero: Tsukuyomi", Minoru Mineta picks "Fresh Picked Hero: Grape Juice", Koji Koda silently selects "Petting Hero: Anima" and Katsuki Bakugo tries to use "King Explosion Murder", but Midnight says his name is a little too violent. Ochaco Uraraka goes up next and reveals "Uravity" as her chosen name. This leaves only Katsuki,nozomi, Tenya and Izuku left to choose their alias'.

While trying to select his name, Tenya recalls visiting his brother in the hospital. Tensei Ida informs Tenya that he has been paralyzed and that he will pass the name "Ingenium" onto his younger brother. Despite his brother's wishes, Tenya elects to use his real name instead. Midnight calls Izuku up next and his classmates are surprised to see he has chosen the moniker of "Deku". Izuku explains that although he used to detest the nickname, Ochaco taught him it could have a different meaning and he's had a change of heart.

When it's Nozomi's turn, she steps forward. The room falls silent, all eyes on her. She's known for her telekinesis, her tactical mind, and her comforting presence, even to the likes of Bakugo.

With confidence, Nozomi announces her hero name: "Psychic hero:Vortex", It's a name that speaks to her control over forces unseen but immensely powerful, much like her ability to manipulate objects with her mind. It also hints at her regal demeanor in the face of adversity, standing tall and unyielded.

Code name selecting ends after Midnight denies Katsuki's elected name change "Lord Explosion Murder". Shota returns to the interning topic they discussed beforehand. He explains that students who received offers will choose from among their nominations, all the others will use a different list with about forty agencies. Midnight suggests that the students choose an agency that best suits their aspirations, and then Shota dismisses them.
