When the students arrive, Mandalay and Pixie-Bob try to introduce themselves as half of the Pussycat's team, but are interrupted by one of the students: Izuku Midoriya, who recognizes the Pussycats and excitedly explains their history, much to their shock at his knowledge.

Izuku mentions how long they've been active and this irritates Pixie-Bob, who grabs his faces and states that she's eighteen years old at heart. Mandalay explains that Class 1-A is still far away from the base camp and will have to travel there through the Beast's Forest. She tells them they have three hours to fight their way to the forest, and if they don't make it in time, then they won't receive any lunch.

The students try to run back onto their bus, but Pixie-Bob jumps in front of them and uses her Quirk to push them off of the mountaintop and into the forest. Mandalay asks Shota if he's sure the students can handle the training schedule he's laid out for them. Shota replies that the students must work hard to get a full semester's worth of lessons into the summer. They will receive permits to use their Quirks, provisional hero licenses and, most importantly, learn to defend themselves. Mandalay, Shota, and Kota leave Pixie-Bob to test the students.

Mandalay taunts them and says she meant it would take the Pussycat's three hours. Pixie-Bob admits she's still impressed and takes a special liking to Izuku, Shoto, Tenya, and Katsuki for their skills.

Shota asks if Pixie-Bob has always been like this and Mandalay states that it's gotten worse and that she's at the age to take a mate. Izuku asks who Kota is and Mandalay replies that he is her cousin. She tells Kota to introduce himself, but he punches Izuku in the crotch and storms off instead.

She explains that Kota simply fainted from the wall and that he will be alright. Izuku questions Kota's views on heroes, unable to understand why he hates them so much.

Pixie-Bob enters the room and tells Izuku that Kota's parents sacrificed themselves protecting citizens. Mandalay explains that Kota sees their sacrifice as them abandoning him for their hero work. She admits that Kota doesn't like the Pussycats either because they're pro heroes and that he may feel like he's only around them because he has nowhere else to go.

The next day, the full Wild, Wild Pussycats team unites to train both Class 1-A and Class 1-B. Mandalay and her teammates all explain their Quirks and how it will help train all forty students at once.

Mandalay continues to fight in close quarters with Spinner. She's forced to evade several quick attacks from his giant blade until Izuku returns and breaks it with a powerful dropkick. He informs her that he was able to secure Kota's safety and that he has a message from Shota. Mandalay uses her Quirk to relay Shota's message to all of the students in Class 1-A and 1-B. Shota grants them permission to fight back against the villains in order to protect themselves.

Mandalay tells Izuku to return to base camp, but he refuses, replying that he still has something to do. He rushes off, but not before telling Mandalay that one of the villains targets is a student named "Kacchan." Spinner stops Magne from attacking Izuku and they argue over Stain's principles. Mandalay knocks Spinner down with a punch while he's distracted. Mandalay relays Izuku's warning to the students and asks that Kacchan should try to avoid combat and stay in a group.
