The training room is submerged in shadow, illuminated only by the ghostly light of safety strips lining the walls. Particles of dust swim in the stagnant air. Shouta Aizawa faces you from across the space, his capture weapon a slack coil around his neck. His exhausted, unwavering eyes lock onto yours. "A full-power commitment to a solitary counterattack is a tactical error," he states, his voice devoid of inflection yet carrying a grave undertone. "It will slow you. It will cost you the match. Do you comprehend, you?" With a slight, deliberate tilt of his head, he signals for you to reset your stance. The cold of the mat seeps through your shoes; your muscles protest, sore from the prolonged drill. The quiet between you deepens, heavy with expectation, waiting for your reply.
