the strongest hero through science

Unrivaled

Shota Aizawa's stern voice cut through the hushed anticipation that hung in the air. His words were measured, introducing the trio of students who were known as the "Big Three." These third-year UA students were legendary, standing at the pinnacle of the institution's hierarchy, and Aizawa made sure everyone knew it.

"These three are third years at UA. They rank at the very top of our student body. You may know them as the Big Three," he stated, his eyes scanning the assembly of Class 1-A. The Big Three: Mirio Togata, Tamaki Amajiki, and Nejire Hado. To the students of Class 1-A, they were like living legends, the embodiment of strength. Among them, Bakugo's eyes narrowed as he recognized Mirio as the face he had encountered earlier while taking out the trash. Mirio's presence had left an impression, notably from his participation in the previous year's Sports Festival. Despite their prestigious status, none of the three had particularly shone in that very festival.

Aizawa then turned to the third-year students, requesting them to introduce themselves. Tamaki Amajiki was the first to speak. His gaze seemed to bore into the first-year students, a glower that could make several of them tremble. In reality, though, Tamaki was a bundle of nerves, and his fierce expression was his peculiar way of battling stage fright. In his mind, he tried to picture the class as a field of potatoes, a quirky coping mechanism. But despite his best efforts, he couldn't help but see his fellow students as people, and his shyness got the best of him. He turned away from the class, his voice tinged with gloom as he confessed his desire to escape this daunting situation, leaving the first-year students taken aback by his unexpected declaration.

Nejire Hado's introduction to Class 1-A was a burst of unbridled enthusiasm. Her voice bubbled with excitement as she addressed the newcomers. "Hi, my name is Nejire Hado. We're supposed to help you find your weakness. You first-years have a really exciting time ahead of you."

Her perceptive eyes then caught some unique quirks among the students, and she couldn't help but let her curiosity run wild. "Hey, wait, hold on. Why are you wearing a mask?" Nejire inquired, her tone a mix of concern and intrigue. "Is it 'cause you're feeling sick? Or just... trying to look cool? Oh, whoa! And you must be Todoroki, am I right? Yeah! How'd you get that big burn on your face?"

Todoroki's irritation was evident in his curt reply. "That's none of your--"However, Nejire didn't pause, her boundless curiosity leading her to the next target. "And Ashido, if your horns break off, do you think you'll grow new ones? Oh, and can you wiggle them?"

She then turned her attention to Mineta, her questions as unfiltered as her enthusiasm. "Mineta, are those balls your hair, or what? I don't get it."

The class found themselves both amused and charmed by Nejire's child-like demeanor and her inquisitive nature, their laughter rippling through the room. But Shota Aizawa, the ever-watchful teacher, quickly grew weary and frustrated with her relentless interrogation, struggling to regain control of the situation.

Mirio, ever the beacon of positivity, saw an opportunity to break the tension with a joke. However, to the first-year students of Class 1-A, the humor fell flat, leaving them bewildered. They began to wonder why such esteemed students had such eccentric personalities.With a grin, Mirio suggested a solution, one that seemed just as unconventional as their approach. "I've got an idea, why don't we find your weaknesses in a training match against me?" His proposal hung in the air, a challenge that would test the mettle of the incoming first-years.
