Hawks confronts Dabi by telling him that the Nomu that the League of Villains sent was far more powerful than anything they had agreed upon….What? Hawks? League of Villains? Surely, there’s no way that Hawks is collaborating with the League of Villains, right? Well, it seems that way, until we see a flashback in Hawks’ memory that shows him being asked to infiltrate the League of Villains and perform a dangerous undercover operation in order to learn vital League secrets.

While Endeavor did eventually defeat the Nomu with a fantastic Plus Ultra Prominence Burn, the fight left him hospitalized with his entire flame beard gone (RIP Endeavor’s flame beard). They seem to be discussing what happened in the previous episode where Hawks and Endeavor were blindsided by an upgraded Nomu that seemed to be a near direct counter to the newly announced Number One Hero. In the opening moments of the episode titled “Vestiges,” we see Hawks meeting with one of the most prominent members of the League of Villains, Dabi. Now that we’ve got our spoiler warning out of the way, it’s time to talk about My Hero Academia Season 5, Episode 2! Hawks’ Betrayal? So, if you’d like to avoid any spoilers, I highly suggest either watching Season 5, Episode 2 first, or reading the manga before you read this. If you haven’t caught up with either the My Hero Academia anime or the manga, I will be talking about pretty major story details.



While devoted readers of the My Hero Academia manga will have already been caught up with the story for Season 5 (and more than likely Season 6), it’s nice to see these previous arcs get their animated arrival. My Hero Academia Season 5 started airing a couple of weeks ago, and it looks like we’re finally getting a deeper dive into Hawks and his character.
