The only way his quirk would be interesting is if it gets developed so that he can delay the activation of the quirk so that he can mask exactly when he inserted his question during a conversation between two people.

It doesn't have to be a question, you just have to give him any kind of verbal response.

I'm surprised that Shinsou showed up again and I'm gonna bet that it was because of his ridiculous popularity after he showed up in the anime

I don't think so, Horikoshi has been setting this up for a few years now. From a Reddit comment:

quote:

I've seen some people saying that Shinsou suddenly appeared out of nowhere (not in this thread thankfully), but just in case, let me remind you that Horikoshi has been building this up as early as chapter 70:

Chapter 70 - seen with Aizawa
Chapter 121 - rougher = getting bulkier through possibly training
Chapter 173 - literally broke a plank of wood with his bare hands

And now Chapter 194. In this panel, Deku is referring to the Chapter 70 scene above.

Also the length of chapters in between the Shinsou appearances has the running joke that he appears at least once a year to appease fans.... because there are approximately 52 chapters per year and when you do the math. Yeah. That's exactly what it is.

I should note that in Tokoyami's match. He is actually at a disadvantage because two of his teammates create light.

He's also going against someone whose quirk is called "Black" so this whole match seems like it's set up to mess with his powers.

It'll be much harder for Shinso to lock down any students this time compared to the tournament. A team exercise means there are pals ready to smack some sense into the affected. He could throw off the timing of any plans but not get a total lockdown if Deku stays sharp.

I have to imagine, though, that he's been developing methods to lock them down physically as well. Hence the Aizawa straps. It's going to be very easy for him to ensnare people with that modulator, and having physicality to back it up with make it incredibly dangerous.

Shinsou is actually a pretty good team addition because you kinda have to pay attention to who you're talking to at any moment in a team vs team battle.

I would imagine that during a lot of time where significant portions of class A were receiving police debriefings, in the hospital for injuries sustained, or confined to their houses for their own safety, class B was actually learning and training.

1-B got the book learning but 1-A got the horrible psychological trauma, so they have the edge.

It also feels like, at least in this first match, Class B has been thinking of ways to specifically counter Class A's quirks in a fight. Meanwhile, Class A has been busy worrying about the actual villains out to kill them and probably aren't as familiar with Class B's quirks.

It seems more like standard "This guy Deku's up against? Yeah. He's good." setup to me. Since Deku beat him already, you have to put some back into it if you're going to try to sell him as a threat again.
