Huh, just noticed that the weird kid from the non-hero class, the one with the dead eyes and wavy hair, seems to have some sort of mind control quirk or something. After Todoroki goes and freezes everything over, his method of getting away from it is sitting atop a bunch of other students who are holding him up and having some very odd, somewhat empty expressions on their faces. Nasty if that is what I think it is. I think we've got one of our big student antagonists right there.

He says "I'm used to using this quirk now" as if he had acquired it recently. Seems like he can use other people's quirks somehow. Or maybe that's reading to closely into the translation.

It seems that he's saying that he's become proficient at using it. If it's a mind control or action compulsion quirk it's likely that he only recently gained something approaching full control over it. An inability to fully control such a quirk would most likely cause you to fail the entrance exam, just as Midoriya would have if he didn't get in off altruism.

I dunno, everyone else seems pretty comfortable with their power, given that they have all had them since kindergarden.

And lots of people can't fully control their quirk. Randomly being able to hock acid loogies is pretty powerful, but if you can't do it on command it's not all that useful.

Not to mention there probably aren't a lot of opportunities to practice mind control that wouldn't make you a huge rear end in a top hat. Although I guess using it to make people help you win a sporting event is pretty douchey too, so maybe that's not what held him back.

I can't really think of any way for Midoriya to not do terribly unless he learns to control his ability. So that should happen soon at least.

She seemed to have a set of gloves on in the one trial, taking them off when she was working with that guy against Todoroki and the chimera octopus dude.

He can't erase a quirk thats always on, only those that can be activated, so invisible girl and frog girl are not touched by his power.

Just because we haven't seen her with it off doesn't mean it's perpetually on in the same way as Tsuyu or the ant girl. Invisibility not being able to be turned off would be completely awful in so many ways.

^^^ The raw for 25 came out a few days ago but other than that we're caught up.

Now that you mention it, Eraserhead could probably wreck All Might since his power is a transformation/strength enhance. Unless there's some limit to how much "power" he can erase or something.

That may have made for a really weird birth for her mom and the doctors involved. It probably didn't kick in till she was a few years old even if she is permanently on if I recall from the earlier chapters, but it's still kind of funny to imagine regardless.

I think most people's quirks only manifest when they're 3-4 years old or something.

That's a yes but situation. Assuming he can erase All Might's powers, keep in mind that his powers are utterly ridiculous. Eraserhead has to blink every so often and All Might is insanely fast. He would have one chance--a single blink and Eraserhead loses.

I'm not sure if this was mentioned in the comic - Are the students in the Management and Support classes participating in the same contests as the Heroics classes, or do they get their own set of contests? If it is the former, that seems rather unfair to the Management and Support students.

Well, it's not like the other students don't have quirks as well.

They're presumably in the same contests given that the second stringer dude who dislikes the Heroics guys is in the race with them, getting several other students to carry him somehow. And it's not supposed to be fair really. It's supposed to be a chance to prove that even if they flunked the entrance qualifiers for the Heroics class for some reason that they really do have what it takes to actually compete with them despite that. Presumably not many people are able to show such qualities, but there's no point handicapping them in the contests and then promoting one to the Heroics class if it means they have to be hand held through the Heroics class because they're not on their level. It's a second chance to get in to that class through a back door, not a mandatory thing where they arbitrarily raise a certain number from those classes every year as incentive or anything from what I can tell.
