Summary#

The Intrepid Researcher: Makoto#

After the run in with Stendhal, Koichi Haimawari resumes his life at college. However, he is struggling with the college work. While eating in the college canteen, truggling with one of his course books, a female college student asks to sit next to him and inquires about his book, so Koichi shows her his Hero Sociology book.

The female notes that it is a difficult book and recommends him to copy notes from an upperclassman from his study group, but Kocihi tells her that he is not in any. The female student doesn't seem surprised that he's a loner and says that she will help him. One of the other female college students identifies her as Makoto. Koichi greatly appreciates her help.

Makoto knows that he is Koichi Haimawari, known at the college as "The Creeper of the Naruhata Ruins", much to Koichi's disappointment. Makoto tells him that she was looking for someone who lives in that area, and proposes a deal: she will help him with his studies and in return he will help her on an errand. Koichi accepts.

Later, at Koichi's home, Kazuho Haneyama is inside reading a book and overhears Koichi and Makoto. Pop goes to hide while Koichi unlocks his door and asks Makoto to wait outside while he tidies up the place, throwing all the junk right where Kazuho is hiding. He finishes cleaning up his home and invites her in. After seeing his class registration form, she offers to give him lecture notes and past exam questions but he must handle attendance himself. Moving on to his main problem, Hero Sociology, Makoto reviews the third chapter of his book, “Discord between Vigilantism and the Official Hero Licensing System”.

Makoto explains that Vigilantism is a transitional period; as society begins to stabilize, vigilantism begins to waver and/or be absorbed by the official Hero System. In order to control the mayhem after humans obtained Quirks, vigilantes appeared in order to keep the peace.

After legislation came about, these vigilantes became heroes. However, the truth of the matter is that the world's first hero system, enacted in Rhode Island, only recognized seven out of the 189 vigilantes as heroes while the rest of the vigilantes were recognized as Quirk-wielding villains. Makoto concludes that vigilantism, which is identified as "personal justice", was the origin of heroes, which is built upon the idea of "societal justice," but at the same time vigilantism is a vehicle for opposition towards mass surveillance.

Makoto asks Koichi a surprise question: what was the decisive factor that separated heroes from villains when the Rhode Island law was first enacted. Koichi does not know, so Makoto reveals that the answer is a secret and while the question will not appear in his exam, it is the topic of her research thesis. She asks him for his help on her research thesis and will give him the answer in due time, which he accepts.

To Koichi surprise, she asks him to do a field survey investigating the rumored "Vigilantes of Naruhata". Makoto thinks that by studying modern-day vigilantes, she might get a insight into the process that created the current hero system. Koichi is nervous since he is one of the members of the Naruhata Vigilantes.

Makoto asks him if there is something wrong. He questions her task since while he has “heard” some good deeds from them, he is wary of sticking their noses into other people who fights villains regularly. She replies that is why she asked him for his help: to be her bodyguard. She leaves while he agrees to meet her at ten at the station on Saturday. Koichi closes his door as Pop☆Step appears and is not in the best of moods due to him being with another girl.

At his apartment, Naomasa Tsukauchi returns from work and greets his younger sister, Makoto. He asks her about her thesis, to which she replies that she is getting all her sources in place. She asks him about any villains or hero information he has learned of, but he replies that he cannot leak any confidential information. He warns her not to approach any villains out of curiosity. She interprets his warning as "do not get caught", to which he replies firmly that she must not get into any danger.

At Koichi's home later that evening, Pop☆Step is annoyed with Makoto's interference, appearing out of nowhere as if she owned the place. However, Koichi does not take Pop's rants to heart as he is doing his college work.^[1]

On Saturday morning, Koichi is training with Knuckleduster, and thanks to his better mastering of his Slide and Glide, he shows him the new Ultimate Move he has created, the High-Speed Double Sweep. Knuckleduster commends him for the better tactical use of his Quirk. However, Pop☆Step finds Koichi’s Ultimate Move annoying, causing Knuckleduster to reply that annoyance is also a useful tactic, but Kazuho simply turns away.

Knuckleduster wonders about Kazuho's attitude, to which Koichi replies that she has been in a bad mood, and tells him about Makoto and her Vigilante research. Knuckleduster tells Koichi that Makoto's investigation into them will cause their identities to be revealed and the Police Force along with Villains will come attacking in droves; Koichi is well aware of this while a bad tempered Pop calls him a moron and turns away again.

Knuckleduster offers to keep Makoto silent with brute force, to which Koichi promises to deceive her as long as he does not interfere. Knuckleduster decides to let Koichi handle the situation but warns him not to let his business and pleasure intertwine. Koichi is not sure which parts is which in all that situation.

Koichi meets up with Makoto and spaces out due to Makoto's dazzling professional attire. Meanwhile, Pop☆Step is secretly spying on Koichi and Makoto. Makoto tells Koichi that she has been using social media to pinpoint the places where Vigilantes tend to appear. As they walk to their destination, Makoto states that she wants to hear the locals' perception of them. Makoto reiterates her question about the decisive factor that separated Heroes from the Villains and reveals that the factor is popularity. Makoto reveals that the purpose of her investigation is to find out how well the "Naruhata Vigilantes" are accepted by the citizens.

They start their investigation and encounter Ichimoku Samazu and Jube Namimaru. They teases to reveal to Makoto who the Cruller really is, with Koichi signaling them not to reveal his identity. They give positive reception about Pop☆Step but are negative towards Knuckleduster. Koichi and Makoto ask the locals about their opinions towards the Vigilantes and after compiling all the perceptions, the populace's perception of the Vigilantes are: The Cruller being helpful but creepy (at which Ichimoku and Jube laugh), Pop☆Step is mostly known for her buttocks and being cute while Knuckleduster is not widely known but the few who do know him view him as scary.

Suddenly, Makoto's laptop is stolen from her by Emperor Yotsuura. Ichimoku and Jube chase after Yotsura while Koichi goes to get changed into his Crawler costume. Pop☆Step appears and chooses not to interfere because she is fine if Makoto loses all her research. Koichi however, is sure that his secret identity will not be revealed and wants to get the Laptop back. He also wants to show off a little. Pop asks him when he's gotten so vain.

Koichi uses his Quirk to catch up to Yotsuura and tries to trip him with his High-Speed Double Sweep, but the thief dodges him by jumping. After failing, Koichi tries to create some distance between them, but Yotsuura kicks his soccer ball into Koichi's, sent him reeling back. Suddenly, Yotsuura is shot in the back by Ichimoku's laser which causes him to fall down. Jube and Ichimoku beat up Yotsuura and tie him up as Koichi manages to get back Makoto's laptop.

Jube and Ichimoku leave as Makoto thanks them for their help. Makoto also thanks Koichi for his help and gives him a hand shake while also asking him one final question, which he accepts. As they shake hands, Makoto asks Koichi if he is the Cruller; shaking hands allows Makoto to activate her Quirk, Polygraph, which can only be activated through physical contact with the target and it allows her to judge the authenticity of her target's words. However, Koichi replies that she is incorrect about him being the "Cruller" and Makoto's Quirk judges that Koichi is telling the truth, so she apologizes.

Makoto returns to her home to work on her thesis with the information she has obtained, although she does not seem satisfied. Her brother Naomasa asks her what's wrong, and Makoto replies she is mixed about having gotten the data she needed but is disappointed that she could not get any great evidence and wonders if her intuition is getting stale.

At his home, Koichi and Pop are looking through copies of Makoto's data, are sniping at each other with selections from the interviews. Pop laughs at the harsh criticism towards The Cruller, and Koichi makes her shut down by reading aloud that people consider Pop☆Step to be just butt and has no singing voice. Koichi is frustrated that the public calls him "The Cruller" when he acknowledges himself as "The Crawler". As Koichi and Kazuho bicker, Knuckleduster is nonchalantly reading the newspaper.^[2]

The Hero from America#

One day, The Crawler is chasing after a thief on a motorcycle while Pop☆Step advises him to leave this situation to the Police Force. However, he refuses because the robber can escape down some back alley, and plans to keep up with the motorcyclist until the Police Force arrives.

Being distracted talking to Pop, Koichi realize to late that the villain uses Longleg Quirk to kick him in the face, which sends him spiraling out of control. Koichi is about to hit a truck but is suddenly rescued by a by flying hero, who not only rescues him but apprehends the motorcycle villain at the same time. The new Hero praises Koichi's courage but suggests leaving the dangerous jobs to the pros.

Koichi thanks the Hero saving him and awkwardly asks how he is. The Hero is offended that Koichi does not know of him, and reveals himself to be Captain Celebrity, the top-ranked American Hero. Captain Celebrity signs an autograph on Koichi's exclusive All Might hoodie, much to Koichi's chagrin. However, Captain Celebrity believes his autograph is worth a lot more than some hoodie, with which Koichi disagrees since only the owner can decide the true worth of an object.

Captain Celebrity relents to Koichi's view but is skeptical about All Might, thinking that he is all brawn and no brains. Captain Celebrity takes to the skies while bidding Koichi farewell, telling him to play hero doesn't suit him.

Back at Koichi's apartment, Knuckleduster and Pop watch an announcement that Captain Celebrity will begin working as a Hero in Tokyo. After seeing footage of Captain Celebrity lifting a cruise liner, Knuckleduster comments that Captain "Catastrophe" Celebrity has had multiple lawsuits filed against him and been subject to multiple scandals. Due to all of this, Captain Celebrity could not continue his work in his home country and came to Japan to try his luck there.

Koichi is not surprised as he rubbed him the wrong way. Pop is surprised that Koichi is bad mouthing someone. Kazuho asks Koichi what he is doing and Koichi responds that he is rubbing Captain Celebrity's autograph off his hoodie.

The next day, the city is under attack by a Kaiju-like Villain. Among the crowd of frightened people, is the person responsible for the situation, Kuin Hachisuka. She determines that Gigantification Quirks are powerful but since they are so easily identifiable, Heroes come within a few minutes, and concludes that Gigantification Quirks are not useful for intricate crimes, deciding to extract a sample later on.

Koichi and Pop are helping the civilians evacuate; one little girl asks for help in rescuing someone called Masahiko. Captain Celebrity shows up and Koichi informs him that someone could not get away. However, Captain Celebrity decides to wait until the media arrives on the scene and since the Police have not made any requests he is not obligated to act. An aggravated Koichi goes off to rescue Masahiko himself.

Right at that moment, Captain Celebrity is contacted and is informed that the media is on its way and dispatch requests from the Police Force have been arranged. Captain Celebrity flies to the monster Villain and starts beating it up; after a few more blows the monster falls down while Captain Celebrity rescues a female civilian.

However, Captain Celebrity's recklessness in handling the monstrous Villain causes the monster to flail about, which sends debris flying everywhere. Koichi manages to avoid the falling debris and reaches the house. To Koichi's surprise, Masahiko is just a dog. Whether dog or not, Koichi considers all lives to be valuable, and tries to get the dog's chain off it.

Captain Celebrity finishes off the monstrous Villain, who falls between two buildings, causing serious damage to both. Koichi manages to release the dog and uses his Quirk to escape along with the dog but the collapsing debris is catching up to him. Captain Celebrity rescues Koichi to the media's applause and yet again signs his autograph on Koichi's hoodie.

As the media over exaggerates Captain Celebrity's heroics, Koichi is disappointed that he ended up being saved, but Kazuho is glad that no one was seriously injured. The little girl comes to collect her dog from Koichi and she thanks him. Captain Celebrity admits that Koichi deserves all the credit for rescuing the dog, only because it is out of his area of expertise. Koichi thanks Captain Celebrity for the compliment.

However, Captain Celebrity advises Koichi to find a different getup than his "drab" hoodie as he does not want improper clothing to be in the same camera shot as him, much to Koichi's chagrin. Captain Celebrity flies off as an annoyed Koichi is still unable to appreciate the American Hero.^[3]

Due to the monster attack, one of the buildings had started to collapse, so the Police Force began evacuating the people inside. Koichi helps out with the evacuation and finds a sumo wrestler and a woman in one of the rooms, both with their left legs injured. Koichi doesn't think he can carry both at once, but Captain Celebrity appears and offers to help him. To Koichi's annoyance, Captain Celebrity only takes care of the woman, while he has to carry the heavy sumo wrestler.

Suddenly, rubble from the building begins to crumble and fall on Koichi, but Captain Celebrity stops it and saves him. Captain Celebrity poses at the cameras while an annoyed Koichi carries the man to safety. Seeing that the demolition and removal of the building requires more entertainment, Captain Celebrity brings in his personal cheerleader squad. As Captain Celebrity and his cheerleader squad show off, Pop sees that Koichi is annoyed at Captain Celebrity hogging all of the spotlight and Koichi admits that he is jealous of Captain Celebrity.

Suddenly, Koichi spots Makoto who is one of the cheerleaders which not only surprises him but disappoints him as well. Pop Step finds Makoto to be vulgar for jumping around in her cheerleading mini skirt, but Koichi begs to differ while referring to Kazuho's own revealing apparel which she refutes.

Makoto spots Koichi and Pop Step and ask them for and interview, which causes the duo to retreat. However, Makoto's attention is diverted by the rescue squad needing her assistance. Before she heads over, Captain Celebrity talks to Makoto, thanking her for all her help. Interested in her, Captain Celebrity invites Makoto to lunch on top of a skyscraper, which she is excited for.

From an alley, Koichi watches the exchange and becomes jealous. Knuckleduster suddenly appears and notes that Captain Celebrity's "playboy" side has risen again and explains that most of his lawsuits have to do with women; the biggest being the financial reparation he paid to his wife after they were granted legal separation and despite losing everything, Captain Celebrity is reverting back to his old habits, having not reflected on any of his grievances.

Later on in casual clothes, Koichi and Pop trail Makoto. Captain Celebrity spots Koichi and asks him about his stalking. Koichi explains that he was simply in the area as Makoto introduces Koichi to Captain Celebrity. Captain Celebrity tells Koichi that he and Makoto are going on their date, which Makoto says is just a business meeting. Captain Celebrity flies off with Makoto in his arms. Suddenly, a loud noise is heard from a bank.

In the skyscraper, Makoto looks down and sees that a bank robbery is occurring and tells Captain Celebrity about it. However, Captain Celebrity is more interested in her and their date. As Captain Celebrity gushes over their romantic lunch, Makoto begins speaking to a person called Pamela over her phone, which shocks Captain Celebrity.

To the horror of Captain Celebrity, Makoto reveals that she became friends with his wife Pamela on the internet last week. Makoto tells Captain Celebrity that Pamela doesn't want him going back to his old ways and threatens him with another lawsuit, which scares Captain Celebrity into temporarily leaving their lunch so that he can stop the bank robbery.

In the bank, a dolphin-like villain demands an escape car, threatening two female hostages. Captain Celebrity appears and ties up the villain in a flash. The two hostages run to hug Captain Celebrity in gratitude, but but he kindly says he doesn't have time and after spotting Koichi, he grabs him and takes him to the skyscraper to take pictures with him and Makoto, doing so in order to show his wife Pamela that he hasn't reverted to his old ways.

As Captain Celebrity talks his way out of trouble to his wife over the phone about his date being nothing more than fanservice, Koichi sees the pictures and notes that Captain Celebrity doesn't strike him as someone who would be buddy-buddy with other men, which intrigues Makoto. Makoto realizes that Captain Celebrity should start appealing to the male demographic as his fanbase consists entirely of females.

Taking Makoto's advice into account, Captain Celebrity's cheerleading squad dress up as schoolboy delinquents as well he also has an Ōendan made up of guys to appeal to the male demographic. This extreme change is broadcast everywhere, and in response internet communities and media overseers begin jokingly asserting that this change came from Captain Celebrity being stricken with food poisoning from all the Japanese sushi.

At his home, Koichi, Pop and Knuckleduster watch this on television as Kazuho comments on the sudden change while Koichi isn't interested.^[4]

Mom Descends#

Pop arrives at the penthouse, finding Koichi sleeping and the place dirty and untidy: the dishes were not washed, no laundry was done, and there is still garbage. Pop opens the window to ventilate the house while asking Koichi to clean it up, but he says he will do it later, since after patrolling the streets he has had a night shift at his job, and now he wants to get some sleep.

Then he gets a call from his dad and what he says takes away all the desire to continue sleeping: His mother, Shoko Haimawari is coming to Tokyo for a class reunion and she decided stay at his place, and worst of all is that she’s already on train. Startled, Koichi starts tidying up and cleaning his room as quickly as possible, saying to Kazuho that his mother is very strict with him.

He even stated she was the first person to tell him to not go to Tokyo and if anything were to go wrong he would have to move back to the countryside. He remembers his updates to her, including one that states he has a girlfriend. In fear for being scolded for lying, he wonders what he should do if his mother asks him to meet with her. Pop considers that this situation has nothing to do with her and decides to go home.

Hours later, Koichi’s mother comes in to his dorm and notices how well her son is making a living. When asking about his girlfriend, Makoto comes in for Koichi’s favor. Shoko is delighted with Makoto, however she realizes the deception for how “put together” she is and uses her Fly Swatter Quirk to give him heavy scolding, believing she can’t trust him with school, so she considers drag him back home until Makoto convinces her she’s helping him keep up with classes. Shoko begins to get along with Makoto, even liking the idea of having her as a daughter-in-law.

Despite the fact that at first Pop did not want to be involved with Koichi's problem, she decides to return wearing a dress to help him. She nervously enters the penthouse, but when she sees Makoto is there,she starts to leave but Koichi stop her and offered her to stay for play up his popularity with his mother. Although Pop does not like that mess, she agrees and uses her actual name, Kazuho Haneyama, to introduce herself to Shoko and Makoto. Koichi is glad to know Pop's real name.

Then Knuckleduster announces his arrival. Koichi and Kazuho start to freak out because they fear the reaction he may cause in Shoko and Makoto when they see the violent vigilante, but to their surprise, on that occasion Knuckleduster is seen as more genuine than his previous self. He politely introduces himself to the guests as “Takeshi Kuroiwa” when giving Shoko his business card.

Makoto also asks him for one, and reads that he's a member of a local NPO, so she asks what he does. “Mr. Kuroiwa” states that Koichi helps him with support in neighborhoods where government and community organizations are least effective by cleaning the roads and patrolling for crime at night while also having meetings in Koichi’s apartment. Both Koichi and Kazuho realize that, metaphorically, he is telling the truth, but he's omitting a lot of details about how he's doing these things.

Makoto notices Mr. Kuroiwa’s strong-built body and thought he took a different job like a Hero, causing the mother mentions heroes get used until their lives fall apart, mentioning how her own son would dress up as All Might while putting himself in danger with helping people out. She even mentions when he went to a high school entrance exam, coming slinking back home after falling into a river. Shoko states her son is nothing but trouble.

Kazuho tries to stand up for Koichi, although embarrassed at having raised her voice, she shuts up. Makoto asks her if she had anything to say, but she says it's nothing important. Then Shoko presses her too energetically to speak her mind, which causes an already nervous Kazuho to leave the place as quickly as possible.

Shoko regrets putting too much pressure on Kazuho, to which Koichi replies she exceeded, which makes him earn a smack from his mother with her Quirk, while ordering him to chase Kazuho down. Koichi asks what he should do once he reaches her, so Makoto advises him that, since she put a lot of effort in her appearance, he should compliment her. Kazuho keeps running down the stairs, and almost falls, although luckily Koichi avoids in time. Following Makoto's advice, Koichi tries to compliment Kazuho on how she is dressed, by saying she is looking very casual. This comment does not seem to please Kazuho, who slaps him before leaving to her home.

Koichi returns to his penthouse and asks his mother how long she will be there. Her mother decides to stay longer to go sightseeing in Tokyo with Makoto.^[5]

The Monster Cat Incident#

Koichi spends the morning sightseeing several of Tokyo's landmarks along with his mother Shoko and his senpai Makoto. He remains calm as advice from his dad. He later spots souvenirs of All Might including an exclusive hoodie, which his mother believes is a waste of money though he buys one regardless. While they are preparing to their home by bus, Shoko talks to Makoto and her son about how much she enjoyed touring Tokyo.

While that is happening, a random cat hops onto a bus and gets injected with Trigger by one of Kuin’s bees, who's watching everything. With his Monster Cat Quirk powered by the drug, the cat starts to merge with the vehicle, causing the bus to morph into a cat bus and goes out of control, endangering the lives of passengers and pedestrians.

While on patrol, Knuckleduster notices the ruckus it’s causing. At first he ignores it because it is an animal that causes it, and therefore he cannot obtain information. However, seeing that Koichi, his mother and Makoto are inside, he decides to take maneuvers to stop it. He calls Kazuho Haneyama for assistance when mentioning Koichi’s in the bus as she brought him a feather duster and duct tape to make a cat toy.

Everyone in the bus is panicking until Ingenium comes to the rescue as he enters the bus. He and Koichi exchange glances, and they act like they don't know who the other is. The driver informs Ingenium he cannot stop or control the vehicle, and since it would be difficult to stop something so big, the Pro Hero is concerned about the possibility that the bus may have crash in an urban area.

Suddenly, Koichi notices his master is in front of the vehicle, holding a makeshift cat toy, and tossed it behind him for the bus to swerve it in a different direction. It is on an express lane, where there are no other vehicles or anything the Cat Bus can crash into. However, the cat bus is heading to a destroyed overpass, giving a five minute time-limit to the heroes.

Team Pit O2 comes on its way with a truck, including their new recruit, Enigma, who uses her Quirk to grab the passengers from the uncontrolled bus and put them in the other vehicle. Koichi’s group are the last three people to be rescued.

Determined not to make things easy for heroes, Kuin gives the cat an extra dose of Trigger, causing the cat attack the Team Idaten truck with its giant tails, and moves away with Makoto still on board. The truck driver manages to regain control of the vehicle and prevent it from crashing. and Koichi informs Ingenium that he remains to rescue Makoto, so the Pro Hero immediately leaves in pursuit of the bus.^[6]

Someone from Team Idaten report they have three minutes to save Makoto, however, Ingenium stated he is running out of steam, but Pit O2, the truck, is out of commission as they ask for a request of someone with a mobile Quirk. Koichi decided to help under his alias as The Crawler, wearing the hoodie he bought at the souvenir shop. His mother tried to stop him from taking risky action, but Koichi states there’s no time to stand around as he leaves. Shoko starts to faint as Knuckleduster and Kazuho come in to take care of her and the passengers.

Koichi manages to catches up Tensei and gives him some juice to refill his Engine Quirk. They have a few minutes until the cat bus reaches the edge of the overpass. Ingenium and The Crawler catch up to the bus as they try to dodge its tail. Ingenium has Koichi try to distract the cat from the front while he gets Makoto from behind. But the cat, attracted by the The Crawler hoodie’s antennas, accelerates suddenly, to Koichi's shock.

This forces Tensei to use a Recipro Burst to gain a last boost in speed and kick the Cat bus to prevent it from run over Koichi; but in doing so, he is forced into a cooldown to prevent his engines from overheating. The Crawler states he’ll save Makoto on his own and that he’ll try to avoid the tails, despite Ingenium warnings of how dangerous it is as the guy from Team Pit O2 states the edge is 200 meters away.

Koichi enters the bus to save Makoto, who is surprised to discover that he is really The Crawler, as the cat bus begins to free fall from the broken overpass. Ingenium uses his super move, Rocket Charge, as he tells Koichi to jump off the bus with Makoto as he tries to catch them.

The Crawler tries to glide up the bus and tries to catch Ingenium, but its not enough. He makes up with his force of will, allowing him to jump in midair. Ingenious has a hold of Makoto as both Quirk users were able to land on the expressway, with Koichi tumbling. Meanwhile, the bus comes crashing down as Kuin leaves the scene with the cat.

While this was happening, Shoko talks to Knuckleduster. remembering that when Koichi was still a baby, he already used his Quirk to float even before he could stand. Due to his young age at the time and the mother being worried, she gave him a smacking everything time he did it to make him stop, although she knew the time would come when even she won't be enough to keep him down. Knuckleduster mentions there comes a time when every child has to fly in some point of their lives and all they could do is teach them how to fall right.

Later that night, in Koichi's penthouse, Shoko states she has enough trust with the people she met and is heading home. Her son tells her to take her time, but she slaps him for saying something he doesn’t mean, and entrusts the two vigilantes to smack him if he steps out of line. She also tells Makoto to join the family, in which she states she’ll give thoughtful consideration.

Sometime later, Kazuho starts to measure how high Koichi can float, in which he’s able to do 30cm. Kazuho informs him with practice, he could possibly do 50, in which he could float over curbs. Koichi states he used the power before as a double-jump; and despite Kazuho thinking it was all in his imagination, Koichi states he did it in which it seems he cannot replicate again. ^[7]
