## Early Years and Education

Shota studied at U.A. High School with his close friends - Hizashi Yamada (Present Mic) and Oboro Shirakumo. It was Yamada who came up with his hero name, "Eraser Head". In his youth, Aizawa doubted his abilities, as his quirk lacked offensive power, however, he developed exceptional close-combat skills and learned to use his weapon - ribbons made of a special alloy. [5, 6]

## Professional Activities

* Underground Hero: Unlike media-focused heroes (like All Might), Shota prefers to work covertly, avoiding press attention.

* Teacher at U.A.: Known for his strictness and willingness to expel any student he deems unpromising. He values rationality and does not tolerate wasted time.

* Fighting Style: Relies on neutralizing the enemy's quirk with his gaze and then capturing the opponent with his ribbons. His main weakness is dry eyes.
