Recap of Episode 15

We start the episode with Tartarus, a high-level detention center where only the most serious and most prominent threats to national safety are held. All For One is kept deep within it, his actual body at least, as he continues to talk through Shigaraki.

145 heroes were put out of action, and some have lost their lives. An attack is launched against Tartarus as multiple Noumus move in coordinated attacks and takes out some of the guards.

The intelligence center summarizes all the villains they’ve captured and kept in check. Villains breach through the Bronze gate as Code Red is initialized, and Shigaraki moves in along with the army of Noumus.

Shigaraki and All For One fight over the possession of the body, and Shigaraki is unable to regain control of the body as he takes out buildings one by one using Decay. He uses the quirk Search to find the body and gets an idea of where it is.

He uses an EMP attack to remove the security cameras and power and open all the prison cells. They mobilize to take fire against all villains who escape but are no match as the strongest monsters make it out,

All For One’s actual body has also made it out as it finally meets up with Shigaraki physically, and all of the prisoners go on a rampage but are still unable to leave the island without external help.

Spinner talks about why he joined the League and goes against All For One since the leader he chose was Shigaraki, not him. But All For One convinces him to stay and respect his orders since he respects Shigaraki’s thoughts more than anyone else.

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Bakugo wakes up and immediately enquires about the other heroes’ status. Gran Torino is also in critical condition but has managed to survive. Aizawa, too, tends to recover from the attack and continues recovering without an eye.

The crowd outside is in panic and conflict about Endeavor and the reveal of Toya; even Shoto is traumatized from the whole incident and is mentally troubled by the turn of events. His siblings also come to visit him.

Midoriya is still unconscious, and Bakugo will not let go until he sees him with his own eyes.
