My Hero Academia volume 10 continues the crisis that interrupted the students' summer training. The preceding book supplies the camp and the threat against its students, so this is a continuation purchase rather than a new school adventure. Keep the two volumes together to follow what that attack asks of both students and teachers. The consequences are discussed behind the spoiler label; the training trip itself has already ceased to be an ordinary exercise.

Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.

The threat of expulsion gives the rescue plan a cost that punching a villain cannot settle. Midoriya and the others can regard saving Bakugo as necessary while still acting outside the authority of the school training them. That tension makes the public criticism of U.A. more than background noise: a school is responsible for students whose strongest impulse may be to disobey it. The volume's change in emphasis is from the immediate attack to the competing obligations it creates. Loyalty does not answer the faculty's problem, and school discipline does not make Bakugo safe.
