Chapter 61

The Worst Combo (最悪のふたり Saiaku no Futari) is the sixty-first chapter of Kōhei Horikoshi's Boku no Hero Academia manga.

Summary
All Might tells Izuku and Katsuki to cooperate together to defeat him.

Shouta says that the ten teams will be transported by Yuuei's buses to an uninhabited training city area where their exercise test will take place. The remaining Class 1-A pairs are shown: The Principal versus Denki and Mina, Thirteen versus Yuuga and Ochako, Present Mic versus Kouji and Kyouka, Ectoplasm versus Fumikage and Tsuru, Midnight versus Hanta and Minoru, Snipe versus Mezou and Tooru, Cementoss versus Rikidou and Eijirou and Power Loader versus Tenya and Mashirao.

Class 1-A and the Yuuei teachers arrive at the uninhabited city; Class 1-A form their respective pairs and the pairs go with their assigned teachers to their designated areas. Every Yuuei teacher explains the test exercise win conditions; each pair must either handcuff their assigned teacher or one of them must escape the battlefield. The two optional win conditions must be accomplished within 30 minutes. By accomplishing one of the win conditions, the pair will win and pass the test exercise. The Yuuei teachers will also be using super compact weighted bracelets (courtesy of Mei Hatsume) to handicap themselves. Recovery Girl, monitoring the test exercise, begins the test.

Ectoplasm multiplies and creates four clones of himself that surround Fumikage and Tsuyu. Ectoplasm says that all of the Yuuei teachers will not hold back.

Shouto asks Momo to create random objects in order to distract Shouta because the test depends on who finds who first. Shouto informs Momo of their plan; he will fight Shouta while Momo makes an escape. Shouto tells Momo not to get separated until then.

Seeing that they are at a disadvantage, Fumikage orders Dark Shadow to throw Tsuyu onto the next floor which it does. Tsuyu grabs Fumikage with her long tongue and throws him onto the next floor as well. Ectoplasm comments on their nice synergy.

In the monitoring room, Recovery Girl remarks that the ability to communicate and work well with anybody is a vital Heroics skill.

Katsuki decides to fight All Might in order to handcuff him while Izuku suggests that avoiding the fight with All Might and escaping is a better course of action. Katsuki ignores Izuku's suggestion and begins going toward All Might. Izuku tells Katsuki that the idea of him beating All Might is ludicrous. Katsuki smacks Izuku onto the ground; Katsuki angrily orders him to stop talking while Izuku says that he is talking because he wants them to pass. Izuku and Katsuki get into an argument; Katsuki declares that he can pass the test himself and didn't need Izuku's help in the first place while Izuku says that Katsuki's bad anger is the reason nobody likes him. Suddenly, All Might throws a punch which devastates the area Izuku and Katsuki are in, causing Izuku to fall down. All Might decides that its time for him to enter the battlefield.
