The promo for episode 5 of season 6 of My Hero Academia depicts Shigaraki grinning as he destroys everything in sight with his newfound skills.

It has been revealed that “Encounter, Part 2” will be the title of Episode 6.
Despite Mirko and Present Mic damaging Garaki’s equipment, the sixth season of My Hero Academia concluded with Shigaraki’s awakening in episode 4. Despite the fact that the episode 5 teaser foreshadowed a downward spiral, viewers were surprised at just how scary their opponent would become after undergoing the change shown in this episode.

Detailed below is an outline and synopsis of the fifth episode of season six of My Hero Academia.
When Shigaraki Comes to Life
Episode 5 of season 6 of My Hero Academia picked up where it left off, expanding on what precisely awakened Tomura Shigaraki up. X-Less discovered one of Garaki’s equipment was still operational after Present Mic had arrested him; it had been spared destruction by the surrounding pipes. X-Less shot it with his laser since he had no idea what it was for.
Since the explosion shot a bolt of lightning down the cables, touching the liquid Shigaraki was resting in, this was a deadly mistake. The shock of lightning awakened him, sealing the fate of the heroes. It was freezing, Shigaraki said first. Before X-Less could stop him, the villain used Decay to murder the hero and steal his cape.
The arrival of Gran Torino and Company
In episode five of My Hero Academia season six, titled “The Thrill of Destruction,” the fight against the superior Nomus continued. While Endeavor fought to fight off the monster while shielding Mirko, Aizawa realised he couldn’t control the situation until everyone was in his line of sight. To everyone’s relief, Gran Torino and the other heroes came just in time to save Mirko and the crew of the Endeavor. The Nomu was kept down long enough for the ultimate hero to deal the killing blow with Jetfire thanks to their efforts. Soon after the heroes had the situation under control, Present Mic came bringing Garaki.
Tokiomi saves the Hawks
Tokoyami, meantime, saw Dabi’s trademark blue flames near Gunga Villa and worried that the Hawks were in trouble. Despite the hero’s objections, Fatgum began to fly back toward the fight, so he told the other pupils to report to the rear guard. Dark Shadow exclaimed in horror that Hawks’ wings had been entirely burnt off when Tokoyami came just in time to stop Dabi from murdering Hawks. Dabi was disgusted by the heroes’ decision to send youngsters into war, and he told Tokoyami the story of how Hawks had slain Twice while the latter was trying to defend his comrades.
Although he faltered, Tokoyami maintained his concern for his guide’s well-being. Dabi confidently employed his flames to cook the birds, dubbing them “barbecued birds,” and just missing his target. Hawks saw that the villain’s strikes were waning, so they urged Tokoyami to go before Dabi could regain strength. However, he continued to follow the two heroes, claiming that he had deliberately enticed them by using a weaker assault.
Geten’s icy blast tore across the battlefield, and Tokoyami carried an unconscious Hawks away as he soared away, comforting himself that his guru was not a horrible guy.
The first OFA holder issues a warning to Deku
Episode 5 of the sixth season of My Hero Academia saw the long-awaited return to action for Deku, Bakugou, and Todoroki. As the student heroes of Team Endeavor started to evacuate Jaku City as the rear guard, Midoriya heard the first One For All wielder call out to him. The OFA relic, with whom he had last spoken in his dream in My Hero Academia season 5, episode 2, forewarned him of the impending reaction. Terror gripping Deku, he instinctively turned toward the direction of the hospital. The original wielder warned that Shigaraki, now free of humanity’s constraints and growing in strength, was on the move and must be stopped.
Freedom-seeking heroes at Jaku General
The most exciting part of My Hero Academia season 6 episode 5 was the start of Shigaraki’s downfall. The walls of Garaki’s hidden laboratory crumbled instantly as the influence of his Decay spread. Although the other heroes had already begun to flee, Gran Torino rescued Present Mic and the villainous doctor in the nick of time. Aizawa was grabbed by a Nomu after Ryukyu urged him to hang on to her. To his luck, a dying Crust threw his shield and severed the Nomu’s arm, allowing Aizawa to make a clean break. All of the heroes made it out of the hospital’s basement before it completely caved in. The carnage quickly extended to the streets, snuffing out any heroes who hesitated before making a break for it.
Jaku City falls to Shigaraki’s Decay
Everything in and around the hospital started to feel the effects of Shigaraki’s Decay; the surrounding birds were even alarmed. Deku’s shout alerted everyone to the situation. Those who managed to escape made attempts to build barriers to slow the spread of Decay, but it was too late. In episode 5 of season 6 of My Hero Academia, we saw a montage of the destruction that had been wrought, with buildings, trees, roads, and automobiles all collapsing at a terrifying rate surrounding where Shigaraki stood. While Deku used One for All, Full-Cowl at 45% to try to slow the destruction, Bakugou and Todoroki started urging the villagers to evacuate. Uraraka realised it was not a regular shockwave when the enormous burst of air had no effect on him.
When Deku thought back on his run-in with Shigaraki, he understood that this was the result of his peculiarity. Todoroki tried to build an ice wall, but it began to crumble as well, so the heroic students had to flee while carrying the villagers. There was a total communication breakdown when the personnel at Jaku Hospital failed to respond to the control room.
The Gigantomachia is what Shigaraki has called it
Season 6 episode 5 of My Hero Academia concluded with Shigaraki pausing his assault and remarking on how pleasant it felt to be in control of his quirk. In the fourth season of My Hero Academia, Overhaul uses Eri’s blood to manufacture a quirk-neutralizing serum. Hiro opens a vault and pulls out a broken bottle of serum. While lamenting the wasted serum, he had a series of unexplained flashes that gave him a splitting headache. They were told it was their time by a voice. When Shigaraki remembered that the raid was meant to start after he woke up, he knew things weren’t looking good. But he spoke with Gigantomachia via a gadget, promising total destruction.
