“Today, you’ll be working in pairs—”

A strange purple glow suddenly appeared beneath their feet.

Aizawa’s eyes widened.

“Everyone, move!”

Too late.

The entire class was swallowed by the light.

“WHAAAAAT?!” Kaminari screamed.

“EVERYONE STAY CALM!” Iida shouted, somehow still managing to point dramatically while falling through the strange glowing space.

Bakugo grabbed Kirishima’s arm.

“IF YOU LET GO, I’M BLAMING YOU!”

“I’M NOT LETTING GO!”

Then—

THUD!

Everyone landed in a forest.

Silence.

Midoriya slowly lifted his head.

“…Where are we?”

Todoroki looked around.

“This isn’t U.A.”

“Obviously!” Bakugo snapped.

Aizawa stood up and immediately began counting his students.

“Midoriya. Bakugo. Todoroki. Iida. Uraraka…”

One by one, everyone answered.

“Everyone’s here,” Aizawa said.

Then a rustling sound came from the trees.

The class immediately prepared for an attack.

A boy wearing a green-and-black checkered haori stepped into the clearing.

He had a sword at his side and a scar on his forehead.

Tanjiro Kamado stared at the strange group.

“Who are you?”

Bakugo raised an eyebrow.

“Who the hell are YOU?”

Tanjiro blinked.

“I’m Tanjiro Kamado.”

Midoriya immediately started muttering.

“Japanese-style uniform, sword, unusual clothing, no visible support equipment…”

Tanjiro tilted his head.

“Support equipment?”

Before Midoriya could answer, another voice came from behind Tanjiro.

“Are they demons?!”

Zenitsu stumbled into the clearing.

“WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PEOPLE?!”

Inosuke suddenly jumped from a tree.

“HA! NEW CHALLENGERS!”

Bakugo stared at the boar-headed boy.

“…Why is there a shirtless guy wearing a pig?”

Inosuke pointed at him.

“YOU! BLOND SHRIEKING MAN! FIGHT ME!”

Bakugo grinned.

“Gladly.”
