The Boku No Hero Academia Vol. 3 Light Novel is finally out and contains a chapter focusing on the Fantasy AU from Season 2 Ending 2! One of the biggest reveals in this chapter is that the Dragon that Bakugou is riding in the Fantasy Ending sequence IS ACTUALLY KIRISHIMA. The context is that Deku and Co. are heading to battle against some strong opponents and come across Bakugou with a fire breathing dragon. Bakugou then tells Deku he wants to tag along, and the translation is as follows:

—



Bakugou: I’m coming too. Defeating these men of valor just means that the person who does so is super strong, right? I’m going to fight them and win!

Deku: EHH? Umm…it’s okay if you tag along with us, but if that dragon also joins us then that’ll be a little…



The dragon listened carefully as soon as he said those words and suddenly morphed into the appearance of a young man. As the others cried out in surprise, there stood before them a young man with red hair who was smiling.



Kirishima: Me? I’m half dragon half human! The name’s Eijirou. It’s not going to be a problem if I come along looking like this, right? Anyway, let’s get along!



Eijirou, brimming with courage and bright personality, lost against a one on one duel to Katsuki and ended up becoming his servant as a result.
