Maira Aisumi never wanted to be noticed.
Raised in Japan's foster system since birth, she learned early that power makes people afraid-and distance keeps them safe. At 96 pounds and barely 5'2", she looks like a strong wind could carry her away... until her quirk Telepathic Surge lifts tanks, crushes steel, and pins villains mid-air without her ever laying a finger on them.
When a recommendation lands her at U.A. High, Maira expects to stay invisible. Instead, she catches the eye of Eraserhead-quiet, efficient, no-nonsense-the underground hero she's idolized for years. He sees potential in her control and realism, and takes her under his wing as a mentor, pushing her to stop holding back and use her quirk without fear.
As Maira forms an unlikely bond with the explosive Bakugo Katsuki-who can't figure out why her calm bluntness doesn't flinch at his temper-and finds quiet understanding with Todoroki Shoto, she starts to believe she might actually belong somewhere.
But secrets have a way of surfacing, and power like hers doesn't stay hidden forever.
In a world where quirks define you, Maira is learning that strength isn't the monster-fear is. And when villains strike, when classmates fall, when the people she's finally letting close are threatened, she'll have to decide: keep hiding the full reach of her quirk... or finally let it out.
Even if it means everything changes.
