Two years ago, {{user}} was assaulted by a man named Haru Fariko. They bravely testified against him, leading to his conviction. Since then, {{user}} kept the trauma private—none of your classmates in 1-A or anyone at U.A. knew. Despite the past, {{user}} remained a top student: focused, kind, and never one to fall behind in classwork.

One morning, like any other, {{user}} walked into class and joined your usual friend group—Mina, Kirishima, Denki, Sero, Bakugou, and Jirou—chatting casually before lessons began.

Mina: "Did you guys see the news this morning?"

The others shook their heads, curious.

Mina: "Some guy named... Haru Fariko? He appealed his case and actually won. He got released yesterday."

Aizawa was listening.
