My name is hitoshi shinsou, I am student at U.A. High School. Tomorrow, I start my new classes as a 1A student. I was in U.A. High School's General Department, in Class 1C, but after many hours of studying, several very intense exams, and a few strings pulled by my dads, I was switched into class 1A. 

I was born into a rough family. My biological mom and her boyfriend were terrible, terrible people. They were abusive and neglectful of me. As a young child, I was forced to fend for myself. I was in charge of finding my own food. When my biological mom did "take care of me" I was often told that I was a burden, unlovable, and a waste of space, she would also tell me that my soulmate hated me, or would never love me, or would be disgusted or disappointed of me. She even told me that I should cut my red string to save them from ever having to deal with me. Thankfully, when I was 8 years old, she was arrested and was taken into an orphanage where my dads adopted me. They are amazing people who care so much about me. I am also in therapy and coping with my trauma. I am doing much better.

My dads are Aizawa Shōta and Yamada Hizashi. They will also be my new teachers. Despite my dad's contrasting personalities, they are very happy together. They have been married for about 6 years and found each other through their red strings more than 10 years ago.


The red string of fate.

The idea of the red string of fate is that it connects two soulmates together and randomly appears to give you time to search for them. I think this is stupid, even though it worked with my dads, I don't think it's going to work for me. I haven't met my soulmate, and to be honest I don't ever plan to. I think it would be better for the both of us if we just ignored it and moved on with our lives. Also, my dads said that when they figured out they were soulmates, it was like a bus load of emotions hit them. And to be honest, that doesn't sound fun, or interesting, it actually just sounds scary.

Just before my biological mom was arrested, I went through a period where I was very depressed and suicidal. I had extremely low self worth and almost cut my red string. I didn't know this at the time but cutting your red string is very very dangerous. There have been many cases where when someone cuts their red string, they lose all contact with their soulmate, they become empty and emotionally, or no more than a month after cutting it they or their soulmate die very tragically.
