My Hero Academia Episode 121: League of Villains vs. U.A. Students

Season 6· canon

Momo and the other U.A. students rise up together and confront the sentient mountain that is Gigantomachia, as he eagerly moves towards his master Shigaraki.

Full recap

The students and pro heroes put Momo Yaoyorozu’s plan into action to stop **Gigantomachia** before he can reach his destination. While that battle unfolds, Tomura Shigaraki keeps fighting off the heroes elsewhere and breaks through their attempts to contain him.

Momo takes charge of the students and explains that they need to put Midnight’s plan into effect: they must put Gigantomachia to sleep with an anesthetic, but because of his size, they have to get it into his mouth. She creates numerous containers of the sedative and organizes the other students into a trap meant to slow him down and force his mouth open.

When Gigantomachia arrives, the students spring the trap and manage to bog him down in the ground. They work together to restrain him and try to force his mouth open so the sedative can be delivered. During the struggle, Denki Kaminari prepares to attack the villains being carried by Gigantomachia, but Mr. Compress hurls debris at him and knocks him out of the action.

Gigantomachia blasts the students back with a powerful rush of air, and Dabi adds flames to keep them from closing in again. The students are briefly overwhelmed, but pro heroes arrive as reinforcements. Mt. Lady grabs hold of Gigantomachia and tries to keep him restrained, having understood the students’ strategy, and Mina Ashido rushes forward through a protective cocoon of acid.

Gigantomachia breaks free of Mt. Lady’s grip and turns to strike Mina, but Eijiro Kirishima arrives just in time and pushes Mina out of the way. He takes the hit himself and holds his ground against the monster’s attack.

At the same time, the battle against Tomura Shigaraki continues. Even after coordinated attacks from the heroes, he keeps advancing and refuses to be stopped. Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, and Endeavor rush toward him, but Tomura slips past them and heads straight for Eraser Head.

Tomura then uses a hidden weapon: he thrusts his hand through Ryukyu’s and fires an anti-Quirk bullet at Eraser Head. The bullet hits Eraser Head in the leg, worsening the situation for the heroes.
