User blog:Lover of the Muse/Joint Training Arc predictions

These are some predictions I have for the upcoming rounds of the Joint Trainign Exercise, including speculation on the quirks of class 1-B. I'm predicting that when we enter Round5, class A and B will be tied 2 to 2.

Round 3: currently in progress
Right now victory in this fight rests on the shoulders of Junzo Honenuki and Shoto Todoroki. If Class1A captures Honenuki without Todoroki being captured then they will be victorious and if Class1B captures Todoroki without Honenuki being captured then they will be victorious. By the end of chapter 203 it seems like Shoto Todoroki and Mezo Shoji were both defeated and captured by Tetsutetstu and Pony. If that's true then all Honenuki needs to do is not get taken down by Tenya Iida and they will win.

Junzo Honenuki vs Tenya Iida
Honenuki's quirk softening allows him to soften anything he touches, and this quirk basically allows him to liquify the ground, Like Todoroki this quirk is ideal for capturing people. This quirk also happens to be a perfect counter forn Tenya Iida's speed.

As Honenuki stated Tenya's leg strength is only useful if there is a solid foundation he can step on, this is even true when Tenya is using recipro burst. Honenuki let Tenya sink then hardened the ground around him to keep him trapped. Tenya activated recipro burst again and partially break through the ground but that's only because it was returned to a solid state.

Honenuki was going by out of date information as he didn't know about Recipro Extend but a point that's brought up repeatedly is how flexible Honenuki's tactics are, so I think this mistake won't be fatal. All Honenuki really needs to do is keep the ground around and beneath Tenya in a quicksand state.

Sen Kaibara: Gyrate
I correctly predicted Sen Kaibara quirk allows him to rapidly rotate himself or any body part at 360 degrees in either direction. He can use this to spin around like a tornado, he can spin around his hands or fingers so they act like drills.

Pony Tsunotori: Horn Cannon
My prediction was that this quirk would let Pony charge up energy blasts between her horns and then project those but I was wrong. It turns out that Pony's quirk allows her to shoot off her horns and then manipulate them, she can control up to four at once.

I'm predicting that Class 1B is actually going to win this battle.

Round 4
This time ClassA has: Rikido Sato whose quirk Sugar Rush multiplies his strength five-fold for every 10 gram of sugar he ingests; Hanto Sero whose quirk Tape can be used to travel quickly and tie people up,; Earphone Jack; and last but not least we've got Lord Explosion Murder himself Katsuki Bakugo.

On the ClassB we've got Kojiro Bondo whose quirk Cemedine let's him shoot a glue-like substance out of his head, and we've got Yosetsu Awase whose quirk Weld let's him fuse things together on an atomic level. I think that Awase's quirk has the potential to create objects by fusing two object's together, similar to Alchemy. This would make Weld similar to Overhaul but less powerful.

Togaru Kamakiri: Razar Sharp
I'm predicting this is a transformation type quirk that let's him turn his hands or arms into blades and also extend those blades.

Setsuna Tokage: Lizard Tail Cut
I'm predicting this quirk allows Setsuna Tokage to detach pieces of her own body and control them at will, similar to Buggy D Clown. Unlike Buggy however she can't make these severed pieces float in the air, and there is a time limit for how long she can control them for.

I'm predicting that team Bakugo is going to win this one, since we have never seen Bakugo be defeated in combat.

Round 5:
I am really looking foreward to this for a number of reason. I'm looking foreward to seeing character development for Ochaku Uraraka.

This time the class B team includes 2 quirks we've never seen in action before, one is Nirengeki Shoda's Twin Impact, I'm not sure what that will do exactly but I don't think it will be that powerful, and the second is Reiko Yanagi's Poltergeist, which I'm predicting allows her to release Poltergeist to come to her aid (similar to Dark Shadow).

I can imagine this round opening with Yui Kodai using her quirk size to gigantify herself and attack class 1A, maybe Neito Monoma would copy her quirk and gigantify himself alongside her.

I'm looking foreward to seeign an interaction between Hitoshi Shinso and Mineta, since a lot of fans hate Mineta and wish Shinso would replace him in class1A and I imagine Shinso himself probably also hates the fact that this tiny perverted gnome is in the Hero Course when he isn't.

I'm also imagining Hitoshi Shinso (or perhaps Neito Monoma after copying his quirk) brainwashing one of the members of Class A into fighting their own teammates.

Izuku Midoriya vs Neito Monoma: One for All Battle
The thing I'm looking foreward too the most about this round is potentially seeing Neito Monoma copy One for All and fight against Izuku Midoriya. In my previous blog on this subject I described why I think this is possible and why I don't think it breaks any of the preestablished rules of Monoma's quirk or One for All for him to be able to do this; in this blog I'm going to be expanding on what exactly I think should happen in that fight.

The first thing Neito Monoma will do after gaining One for All will be to knock Izuku away and maybe through a building using a finger flick air pressure attack at 100%, this will break Neito Monoma's finger. When Izuku Midoriya get's up he'll see Neito Monoma has broken one of his fingers and he'll see glowing red veins and green electricity surround Monoma's body.

During the fight Neito Monoma will be Full Cowling at around 10%, but he'll also mutilate his figners but unleashing more 100% air pressure attacks. During this fight Neito Monoma will exhibit the same reckless tenacity as Izuku demonstrated during the U.A sports festival.

Neito Monoma's time limit will play an important role, at least once during this fight Monoma will touch Izuku again to extend the amount of time he can use One for All.

During this fight we get flashbacks to Monoma growing up. I'm imagining that as a child people thought he was quirkless and that he resented his classmates for getting cool powers.
