Joint Training Arc
Sen and the rest of Class 1-B are all present for the Joint Training Battle, with Neito loudly claiming that the momentum is now moving to their side. Upon selecting teams, Sen is teamed up with Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, Pony Tsunotori, and Juzo Honenuki and they will face Class A's team of Tenya Ida, Shoto Todoroki, Mezo Shoji and Mashirao Ojiro at Round 3.

Upon entering the battlefield, Tetsutetsu feels his way around Ground Gamma. He says that despite being considered dull he still got into U.A. High's hero course. Sen asks what's gotten into Tetsutetsu and the latter claims their team doesn't have good information gatherers, deciding to tear his way through the field to challenge Class 1-A head-on. 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.

Sen and Pony disagree but Juzo's flexible attitude gets them to go along with Tetsutetsu's brashness. The battle starts off with Shoto Todoroki unleashing 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.

Sen appears to be gaining upper hand as his drill attacks keep Mashirao at a heavy disadvantage. However, his attack is quickly halted by Tenya Ida, who swiftly drags him towards Team 3-A's prison cage. Sen gets upset over Ingenium interrupting his "one-on-one fistfight" with Mashirao, in which the latter reminds him that he should treat the exercise as if it was an actual battle in reality.

Tenya manages to successfully send Sen to Class 1-A's prison cage. However, Sen remains defiant until the end by continuously attempting to break free of Tenya's grasp, which heavily slowed down his opponent's movements. Vlad King later announces Sen as the MVP of Round 3, much to the latter's annoyance. When the match ends, it turns out that Sen and Mashirao are the only ones that were actually captured.

After their defeat, Sen stays to watch the last round along with the rest of the students. The Joint Training Battle ends with victory for Class 1-A. In the evening, Class 1-B visits Class 1-A's dormitories for dinner and spending time with one another.
