Synopsis
Entrance Exam Arc

Backdraft directs the rescue effort.
Backdraft and several other heroes try to stop the Sludge Villain who is controlling Katsuki Bakugo. Kamui Woods asks Backdraft to stop the villain, but Backdraft says that he cannot do anything because he and another hero are trying put out the fires started by Katsuki's Explosions. Backdraft then demands to know if the fire trucks have arrived yet. He orders the other heroes to keep the damage under control until a hero appears who is able to stop the villain.
Later, he and the other heroes try to stop Izuku Midoriya when he wants to help Katsuki. Luckily, All Might appears and stops the villain with one attack. Backdraft and the other heroes then collect the remains of the villain and deliver them to the Police Force.[1]
