Inasa Yoarashi/Synopsis

History
Inasa Yoarashi grew up as a child who loved almost everything and disliked nothing. Not even bugs at his first school turned him off. As soon as he discovered what Pro Heroes were, Inasa loved and admired heroes who were passionate about their job. He tried to get an autograph from the Flame Hero Endeavor because he symbolized Inasa's belief that all heroes have hot spirits.

However, Endeavor refused Inasa's request, knocked him over and told him not to stand in the way. Feeling betrayed by Endeavor's unheroic behavior and cold angry eyes, Inasa's admiration transformed into hatred.

Inasa grew up into a potential hero candidate and participated in the U.A. Entrance Exam for recommended students the same year as Shoto Todoroki. While walking into U.A., Inasa noticed Shoto had the same cold eyes as Endeavor. The practical exam consisted of a marathon race which Inasa narrowly defeated Shoto in. Despite Shoto's cold glare, Inasa tried to befriend him, but Shoto refused Inasa just like his father did.

Inasa received the top score for recommended students but decided to decline his admission to U.A. and enrolled into Shiketsu High School instead.

Provisional Hero License Exam Arc
Inasa joins his fellow peers from Shiketsu High at the Provisional Hero License Exam site, Takoba National Stadium. Inasa overhears Class 1-A students about to cheer "Plus Ultra" and decides to emphatically join the chant. He explains that he loves U.A. and tells the students it will be an honor to compete against them.

Seiji Shishikura scolds Inasa for crashing their chant and Inasa apologizes in the strangest way possible. He slams his head into the ground and loudly projects his apology. Camie Utsushimi comments that Inasa's head is bleeding and he replies that he likes blood. Seiji tells them both to follow him into the arena. Shota Aizawa tells his class that the energetic student is Inasa Yoarashi, the young man who came in first in U.A.'s entrance exam for recommended students.

During the first phase of the exam, Inasa is inspired by other students battles. In the city district of the arena, Inasa stands on a tall building and uses his Quirk to collect the balls of many rival students. He asks if he can join the fun and then reigns down a barrage of projectiles at his opponents. Inasa manages to eliminate one hundred and twenty students at one time and becomes the first competitor to complete the first phase.

Inasa tries to make friends with a fellow examinee in the anteroom. While talking about Stamp Man, Inasa notices Shoto walk into the room and gives him a cold glare before returning to his conversation. Before the second phase begins, Inasa accompanies Nagamasa Mora and the other Shiketsu students when they apologize to the U.A. students for Seiji's behavior. Shoto confronts Inasa and asks if there is a problem with them. Inasa explains to the son of Endeavor that he hates both of them.

The final phase of the exam begins and Inasa rushes ahead using his Quirk to fly to the danger zone in order to conduct rescue operations. Nagamasa clears out an area where the helicopter would land should the hypothetical emergency services arrive to help. Inasa commends Nagamasa's powerful Quirk.

Inasa tries to rescue trapped civilians working for H.U.C.. He introduces himself as Gale Force and says that rescue exercises pump him up. He uses the wind to delicately lift the citizens and debris into the air.

One of the H.U.C. employees is impressed with Inasa's subtle control over his Quirk but then yells at him for being reckless. Nagamasa explains that Inasa shouldn't move injured people until they've been examined because he could make things worse. Inasa apologizes and puts the two "children" down into his arms. The H.U.C. employee reminds him that he was sloppy, much to Inasa's surprise.

Gang Orca and his sidekicks suddenly lead a villain attack on the area halfway through the second phase. Nagamasa sends Inasa ahead to fight the villains. He flies the battlefield and states he's excited to handle a hot spirited villain attack. He's pleased until he notices Shoto already fighting on the ground.

Shoto tells him to go help with rescue operations but Inasa refuses and both of them start arguing. Shoto tries to attack with fire and Inasa tries to attack with the wind at the same time. They end up canceling out each other's attacks and Inasa blames the son of Endeavor for trying to hog all the glory. The sidekicks shoot Shoto with a cement gun and try to hit Inasa too. Inasa is able to dodge in mid-air by flying around the liquid cement.

Shoto claims that it has nothing to do with Endeavor but Inasa claims it has everything to do with him. Inasa believes they are both the same and firmly states he'll never recognize either of them as true heroes. The bitter rivals end up attacking at the same time again and Inasa gets annoyed with Shoto until he realizes he blew the flames toward nearby student Yo Shindo. Izuku Midoriya saves Yo and yells at Shoto and Inasa for their recklessness.

Gang Orca appears to attack Shoto but its actually a distraction and he sends supersonic waves at Inasa. Inasa tries to evade but ends up dodging right into a shot from one of the cement guns. He's barraged by supersonic waves and his body goes numb. Inasa loses control over the wind and he crashes into the ground. Shoto is also immobilized and both of them are forced the reconcile with the mistakes they've made. Inasa realizes that he's become the type of person he hates because of his grudge against Shoto. They both silently decide that they have to make things right.

Both students know they were competing with one another in vain. They know they can't beat a top hero like this and so they put their differences aside and combine their powers to try and make up for their follies. Shoto's flames join with Inasa's wind to trap Gang Orca inside a spiraling flame prison. Inasa's body is mostly paralyzed and he's barely able to retain control over his Quirk. Shoto makes up for this weakness by adding the heat from his flames and they manage to impress Gang Orca.

The other students keep the sidekicks from freeing Gang Orca. Although his body is weak to extreme heat, the No. 10 hero refuses to give up. Gang Orca rehydrates by pouring a bottle of water on himself and then breaks free from his hot wind prison by using his hypersonic waves.

Inasa and Shoto appear to be on the brink of defeat, but Izuku stops the makeshift villain from finishing them off. The test ends shortly afterward. Inasa changes back into his school uniform and tries to find his name among the list of people who passed. He can't find it, however, and realizes that he failed the exam.

Inasa notices that Shoto failed the exam as well and approaches him. Inasa emphatically apologizes for making Shoto fail. Shoto claims it was his own fault and Inasa decides that he was wrong about Shoto all along.

Remedial Course Arc
Later on, Inasa and Camie Utsushimi retake the Hero License exam with Shoto and Katsuki. While there, they have to fight against the new generation of kids who have strong Quirks. Inasa ends up passing his exam alongside the others.
