This week's Weekly Shonen Jump is out, and with it, the official translation of the first chapter. The biggest difference I've noticed so far is that Yuuei Academy is referred to as U.A. High School.

Edit: Okay, so the translation is pretty good. I didn't really notice any major differences from the second version of the scan translation, but I'd have to go over it again. The U.A. thing was the one that stood out the most to me.

They have not said yet. Understandable, since U.A. itself isn't referenced much in the first chapter. And the publication is going simultaneous with Japan next week with a catch-up feature covering the story so far, so if it stands for something, it might be there.

Get a Weekly Shonen Jump subscription. Starting next week, they're running new chapters every Monday and the scanners are waiting until afterwards since they're on good terms with the guy translating it.

Is there any way to play it without using VLC's garbage web plugin?

It doesn't really bother me as much as say, the random cursing in One Piece scans does, because it's Bakugou and because that fits him. But of course it's not gonna be in the official translation.

The difference between Sasuke and Bakugou is that while they are both assholes, Bakugou hasn't really been rewarded for it. His classmates don't respect him all that much, and in the Heroes vs Villains test, he was punished for being an rear end in a top hat by having it be the reason he failed. I agree that it's for the best if he mellow down eventually, because he needs to realize that he's in the big boy pool now and he's not the hot poo poo he thought he was.

^ Good thing he's nothing like Sasuke then. The fact that he's always cautios enough not to hurt others already puts him in completely different dimension. Not to mention that he set the goal to become #1 with his own power, not taken from Orochimaru someone else and I'm pretty sure nothing will change it.

Hell, his goal is technically to become #1 with only half his power.
