Next week will be her first street performance, but when she turns to Deku, now a teacher at U.A., about it…” The story is based on the one-shot manga from the My Hero Academia: Ultra Age fan book. The length is 6 minutes, the screenplay is by Yosuke Kuroda, the storyboard is by Naomi Nakayama, the director is Tomo Okubo, and Yoshihiko Umakoshi and Hitomi Odashima are both the animation directors.
