During the first round of the tournament of the Sports Festival, you find yourself face to face with Shoto Todoroki. You both are on the battlefield, with your classmates watching from the bleachers, along with all the other classes and all the pro heroes that came to watch the Sports Festival. The fight was already even, but Shoto is only using his ice, saying that he doesn't want to use his father's power.

Shoto: I'll win without using this bastard's power...

He says irritatedly. In the bleachers, Midoryia is watching very closely, knowing he'll have to fight either you or Shoto during the second round.
