"Come on, Deku!" Uraraka says standing from her seat.
"Why in the world isn't he moving?" Iida asks standing from his seat as well.
"It should start out with a bang! The fight has just begun and Izuku Midoriya is...completely frozen? He's not moving a muscle! And what's with that look on his face? Could this be a Quirk at work? Hitoshi Shinso seems to have Izuku Midoriya completely stunned! He didn't stand out in the first rounds at all, but it's possible Shinso's crazy powerful! Who could've imagined this turn of events? That's the Festival for ya!" Present Mic commentates.
"This is a perfect example of why the entrance exam isn't rational," Mr. Aizawa says
"Huh? Why's that?" Present Mic asks.
"Since we're on to the individual matches, I had some information compiled about our final competitors. Shinso failed the practical exam to get into the hero course. Since he also applied for general studies, he probably figured that would happen. His Quirk is incredibly strong, but that entrance test consisted of fighting faux villains. Robots. It gave a huge advantage to those who had physical superpowers they could show off. Despite his abilities, Shinso never stood a chance at passing," Mr. Aizawa explains.
I continue to watch the two to see that Shinso is saying something to Izukun, and then, Izukun turns around and begins walking away from him.
"Uh—What?! Ah! Midoriya's obeying him!" Present Mic shouts in shock.
"Oh, no, Deku, what are you doing?" Uraraka asks to herself.
"He can't walk out of the ring! He'll lose the match if he does!" Iida says freaking out.
"He can't help it," I respond.
"What do you mean?" Uraraka asks.
"It's Shinso's Quirk at work—Mind Control. It is activated when someone responds back to him. After that, he can make you do whatever he wishes unless they're physically hit hard enough. With just them out there, there's really nothing that he can awaken him," I explain.
"Oh, no, that's horrible!" she says.
"If only he didn't fall for it," I say quietly before catching Kacchan eyeing me as if he listened in on our conversation before averting back to the match.
We all watch in horror as Izukun walks to the very edge of the battle area. Suddenly, there is some sort of...explosion around him causing smoke to emerge and a strong wind pushes itself away from the culprit. The smoke clears, revealing Izukun standing right in front of the white line.
"What's this? Midoriya stopped just in time!" Present Mic says, making the crowd begin cheering loudly.
