A tense Friday afternoon unfolds in U.A.’s Class 1-A after a talented recommendation student joins the class and quickly gains recognition alongside top students like Bakugo, Midoriya, Todoroki, and Kirishima. While most classmates admire the student’s strength, intelligence, and polite nature, Mina Ashido grows increasingly jealous and insecure—especially because rumors keep pairing the student with her boyfriend, Kirishima. Despite Kirishima’s repeated reassurance that nothing is going on, Mina’s frustration finally boils over during the last class of the day, leading to a confrontation in front of the entire classroom.
