1. Game Start (Episode 39) - Filler
Kurogiri and Tomura watch All Might on TV at the League of Villains hideout. Panicking at the moment, Kurogiri turns it off since Tomura hates both Midoriya and All Might. Tomura then talks about how he absolutely hates the Hero Killer Stain and Midoriya. He says that they Irritate him to the level where he wants to absolutely destroy them. Tomura says that he finally knows why he gets irritated and that’s because All MIght gives everyone hope by smiling.
After that, Tomura immediately leaves and starts to plan how he can make a world without All Might. He also wants to show the world that society is very weak even with strong heroes like All Might and the others.
Izuku trains more and more after the end of his current semester. However, he feels very weirdly intimidated by the fact that All Might’s power is rushing through him.
As always, Minoru Mineta interrupts Midoriya’s training and asks offers him training at the pool. Because Class 1-A is unable to go on vacations, so their only choice is to use the School’s swimming pool. Well, it’s a moment of bliss for Minoru and the other boys as the school offered all the ladies with swimsuits. Do you know what I’m talking about?
Bakugo immediately starts challenging Midoriya, however, Midoriya refuses his offer. Instead, Tenya makes Izuku have a race in the pool. All of our boys have to use their quirks to swim and reach the other end of the pool.
After the pool incident, All Might meets the Tsukauchi Detective as everyone suspects that he’s involved with the League of Villains. At the same time, the race of our MCs is in its final league. It’s Midoriya, Bakugo, and Shoto, and their race is about to begin. That’s where Aizawa sensei arrives and just slams everyone out of the pool. Like always, Bakugo is angry at everyone because he was so sure that he’ll win.
After leaving the pool, Midoriya visits the Municipal Beach Part where he meets All Might. And at the end of this episode, Tomura Shigaraki calls someone and says “New Game” will be starting very soon.
2. Class 1-A (Episode 55) - Mixed
This episode is about Shoto where he gets surrounded by 10 students that belonged to Seijin High School. Everyone looks at Shoto and the class leader calls Shoto Todoroki an overconfident and naive guy for working alone. That’s where their fight begins and Shoto uses his powers to attack the students. However, they deflected his quirk by using their water quirks.
Their strategy is very simple. They just gotta negate Shoto’s attacks by using their unique quirks. Finally, Shoto defeats them and freezes the students of Seijin High School.
On the other hand, Momo, Tsuyu Kyoka, and Mezo all enter a building because they couldn’t find their fellows. That’s where Kyoka’s ears start to explode where sudden loud music injured her. Now, Momo gets attacked from the outside and the students realize that they are being deprived of their powers because it’s good at detecting people.
Saiko is the mastermind behind this technique and Momo, being inspired by Midoriya, decides to not give up that quickly and create a smart way of dealing with the enemies.
That’s where Kyoka comes into play where she makes a sound loud enough to make everyone sleep. Now, only Saiko is awake.
However, they decided to save Saiko and her friends even though they could’ve escaped the building easily. That’s where Saiko got flustered and admitted her defeat.
On the other hand, Bakugo, Kirishima, and Denki, all end up in a city where they have to fight Seiji Shishikura. Seiji really attacks Bakugo but Kirishima saves him and becomes a piece of flesh. Now, Bakugo is super pissed and challenges Seiji to fight him with no running.
At the end of this episode, Aizawa says that he’s not even worried about his students because they are from Class 1-A.
3. Special Episode: Save the World With Love! (Episode 58) - Filler
In this filler episode, Midoriya tells that everyone should be giving their license exam right now. However, All Might says that forget all about the exam because it’s going to get interesting.
He’s telling Midoriya a story about saving the world from heroes with the power of LOVE! Aizawa picks a couple of students and gives them a special class. The students include Tenya, Uraraka, Tsuyu, Bakugo, Midoriya, and Todoroki.
Everyone must capture a villain and become a detective. No one knows who the villain is but all we know is that only Pro Heroes were requested by the police to capture this mad man. Bakugo orders Uraraka to look into the building and inform them how many villains are in there.
Later on, our heroes solve the case and the love between Midnight and the Villain is revealed.
Right when our heroes solve the mystery, Aizawa comes in and ends the training, deducting Midoriya’s points and giving everyone a zero. Everyone failed the training. The reason for that was simple. Aizawa said that the mistake all of them made was to not tie up the villain and assume that the villain was a corpse.
4. The Scoop on U.A. Class 1-A (Episode 64) - Filler
Juko News is telling everyone that All Might’s retiring after this fight against One For All. Taneo Tokuda comes into pay. A freelance journalist who wants to help them craft the best scoop. He analyzes the whole situation and comes to a conclusion that All MIght’s last message was not for his villains but for the students of Class 1-A, especially for the successor he’s chosen.
That’s where Aizawa introduces Taneo to Class 1-A. Now, the interviewer wants to interview Class 1-A and Aizawa explains the class whole situation. Even though Aizawa-sensei knew something was off, he let the guy continue with the work.
Taneo just takes pictures and records everyone’s daily lives and he finally comes to a conclusion that Midoriya is All Might’s successor. BINGO! However, after looking at the beautiful relationship between Midoriya and All Might, Taneo decides not to write out of respect for our MC and his passion.
5. Long Time No See, Selkie (Episode 104) - Filler
Midoriya, Bakugo, and Shoto have their first day of Hero Work Studies done. Midoriya gets curious about how Uraraka’s studies are going. The next morning, the girls receive a call that a forest in Kaflin got burnt by an explosion. They meet the Oki Mariner Crew and Sirius thinks that the ship is hiding somewhere in the Verize Island.
At night, Tsyuyu and Uraraka join Selkie. They catch the smugglers without any problem however, they find another cargo plane that has the actual chemical. It was a diversion created for our heroes! At the end of this episode, our heroes managed to take down the bad guys and enjoyed the beach!
Did the Filler List Help You?
We all know that the fillers in My Hero Academia are FAR less than what you’d expect. You can watch the filler episode or READ it in case you don’t wanna take time. But yeah, if you wanna avoid the hassle of not watching it, you’ve got the filler episodes to skip. I hope you liked our Filler List, my Heroes! I’ll see you at the next one.

Boku no hero academia is just well-written anime.

But still Deku is something else.
YES! Especially what’s happening in the manga right now, Deku is turning into something else!
