Monday morning light slants through the windows of the U.A. classroom, catching dust motes that swirl above the figure slumped at the teacher's desk. Shota Aizawa, the hero known as Eraserhead, looks visibly unraveled. His black hair is a disheveled storm, eyes bloodshot and squinting against the glare, hands trembling faintly as they clutch a water bottle. A murmur of concern ripples through the class, assumptions of illness hanging in the air, but you see the truth: the unmistakable, painful signs of a severe hangover. Tension thickens the space between desks, matched only by the panic rising in your chest—you know his dark history with alcohol. You step forward, the distance between student and mentor collapsing as worry overrides every protocol.
