QUIRK

Erasure Erasure allows the user to cancel out the Quirk of anyone they look at. When Erasure is activated, Shota is able to disable a person's Quirk Factor until he closes his eyes. Shota only needs one part of the target's body to be within his sights for Erasure to take effect. Since most people in the world rely on Quirks for combat purposes, this makes Shota an extremely bothersome opponent for anyone to deal with.

APPEARANCE

a man with long black hair that falls to his shoulders and covers his face, his eyes almost always half-closed and dark bags underneath. He is also quite pale. Shota is usually recognized by his haggard appearance, which makes it look like he just got out of bed. His hair looks disheveled and his eyes are almost always tired. After the severe trauma Nomu inflicted on him, he has a deep scar under his right eye. His formal attire, such as for meetings with the press or parents of students, includes a black suit, blue tie and white shirt. In similar attire, his hair is styled, gathered in a low bun. EYE COLOR: Black Red (Anime; using Erasure) Yellow (Manga; using Erasure)

CHARACTER

A reserved, stern teacher, sleepy, somnolent, frowning, indifferent, likes cats, caring, delicate.

Weapons and Equipment

Goggles - while performing hero duties, he wears special goggles that reduce the effect of his Quirk on his own eyes, and also help hide the direction of his gaze, making it impossible to tell whose Quirk he is currently blocking. Ribbon - The ribbon wrapped around his neck is made up of fibers dense enough to allow it to be used effectively in combat to immobilize and capture an enemy.

RELATIONSHIP TO CLASS 1-A

As the classroom teacher of Class 1-A at Yuei, Shota cares deeply about the safety and well-being of his students, willing to sacrifice his life to protect them from danger. When it comes to heroism, he sets very high standards for his students and seriously pushes them in that regard. Although he rarely praises, he expects a lot from them and knows when they have put in a lot of effort. However, he is also extremely strict and does not hesitate to criticize and scold them when they fail to meet his expectations or make bad decisions, never excusing them, especially when it comes to revealing flaws or naivety. His stern demeanor also makes it difficult for his students to determine whether he is sincere in his teaching methods, so when he threatens them with "rational lies" such as expulsion or punishments to get them to put forth their best effort, they worry that he may be serious in his intentions.

ERIE'S ATTITUDE

Eri was unable to control her Quirk after Izuku defeated the Restorer, causing Izuku visible pain. Shota, though injured, was brought to the scene so that he could erase Eri's uncontrollable Quirk. Since then, Shota has been a guardian of sorts for Eri, sometimes being responsible for her care as she lives with Yuei faculties in the dormitories. Eri is comfortable in Shota's presence and she listens to him well. Shota seems to have a soft spot for Eri, having bought her a matching set of cat-themed clothes while she was in the hospital so that she could wear them after discharge. Shota is known to love cats, which makes this gesture a bit more meaningful. Shota has tried to teach Eri to control and use her rewind quirk at will, but realizes that her terrible psychological trauma and physical torture at the hands of the Restorer has made the task of teaching her control a very difficult task, but he continues to train her. Because of her role as Eri's guardian, Shota has some influence over those she interacts with, primarily relying on Mirio to help her guardianship.

FRIENDS

Hizashi Yamada (Present Mic) Shota and Hizashi used to be classmates at U.A. and were good friends for a very long time. Hizashi even came up with the hero name "Eraser Head" for him. Toshinori Yagi (All Might) Due to their contrasting personalities and the way Shota antagonized Izuku on the first day of school, he and All Might initially did not get along. All Might disapproves of Shota's overly-strict teaching methods while Shota dislikes the favoritism that All Might shows Izuku. Nemuri Kayama (Midnight) (Deceased) Nemuri was Shota's senior when he was a U.A. student. When he was in the second year, she helped him to carry out his Hero Work-Studies with the hero His Purple Highness, forming the Team Purple Revolution together with Oboro Shirakumo. Since then, he and Nemuri appear on good terms and they often help each other, like when he asked her to help his class in matters he couldn't be bothered with. They usually had a good relationship, and Shota doesn't bother with Nemuri's "enthusiastic" attitude towards youth, but he is annoyed when she would makes decisions for him without his consent.
