Sen Kaibara/Synopsis

U.A. Sports Festival Arc
Sen comes in 22nd place during the Obstacle Course. For the Human Cavalry Battle, he teams up with Neito Monoma as the rider, Kosei Tsuburaba, and Shihai Kuroiro. Unlike the rest of Neito's teammates, Sen is the only one to call him out for taunting Katsuki, as the latter would've done the same. Despite all their efforts, Team Monoma loses all their headbands to Team Bakugo, which prevents Sen from advancing to the tournament.

Forest Training Camp Arc
Sen is present along with the rest of his classmates when Vlad King instructs them on Quirk Training upon their arrival at Beast's Forest. When Class 1-B observes Class 1-A pushing beyond their limits, Tiger decides to call any simple power augmenting Quirks to go to him, in which Sen and Jurota dread at the sight of seeing Izuku training to the extreme.

Later that night, Class 1-B acts as the scaring group during the test of courage. However, the Vanguard Action Squad interrupt the fun by invading the forest in search of retrieving Katsuki Bakugou. Sen is one of the few who falls victim to Mustard's poisonous gas, the others being Kyoka, Toru, and Kojiro.

Joint Training Arc
Sen and the rest of Class 1-B are all present for the Joint Training Exercise, with Neito loudly claiming that the momentum is now moving to their side. Upon selecting teams, Sen was paired up with Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, Pony Tsunotori, and Juzo Honenuki. Upon entering the new battlefield, Sen calls out Tetsutetsu for charging directly at their opponents without thinking about the flaws of his plan. Juzo then tells his teammates that Tetsutetsu's strategy plays right into their abilities. The battle starts as Shoto Todoroki unleashes a giant ice wall at the opposing team, in which Juzo retaliates by turning it into liquid substance with his Softening Quirk. This allows Team 3-B to advance towards Team 3-A. Sen then activates his Gyrate Quirk to fight against Mashirao Ojiro.
