Episode Context

As the first episode of thirteen, this is pure foundation, establishing the world's power system, Izuku's emotional core, and the key relationships that drive the entire series forward. Nothing precedes it, but everything builds from here: the next episode, 'What It Takes to Be a Hero,' directly escalates Izuku's fateful encounter with All Might and begins transforming his impossible dream into something tangible. Consider this the emotional thesis statement for the season.
