With his heightened senses and quick reflexes, Mezo Shoji is a reliable fighter in My Hero Academia.
The ability to grow extra arms can be very useful when throwing multiple punches. Of course, Shoji has far more versatility with his Mutant Quirk. Dupli-Arms also lets him replicate other body parts at the tip of his tentacles. This gives him more awareness of his surroundings in My Hero Academia.
1) Kosei Tsuburaba
Tsuburaba can be very annoying to deal with in My Hero Academia. He can trap his targets via his Solid Air Quirk. Unfortunately, for him, a strong enough force is all that’s needed to break down his prison walls. Tsuburaba is also physically weak and wouldn’t last very long in a direct confrontation.
Shoji might be the youngest student in Class 1-A, but his muscular build is second only to Rikido Sato. He can definitely break out from Tsuburaba’s air techniques. Shoji also has natural reflexes and quick movements. He could definitely take on Tsuburaba with a surprise counterattack.
2) Togaru Kamakiri
Kamakiri has very precise cutting power with his Razor Sharp Quirk. Shoji would have to be very careful around him.
With that said, he can regenerate sprouted limbs with his Dupli-Arms Quirk, which means an injured Shoji can still put up a good fight. He just needs to outmaneuver Kamakiri and land his Ocotoblow super move. Shoji definitely has enough strength and speed to catch the Class 1-B student off guard.
3) Rikido Sato
Sato is a physically strong combatant with a clear muscular build. He can make himself even more powerful with the Sugar Rush Quirk, provided he ingests a certain amount of sugar in My Hero Academia.
However, unlike Shoji and his ability to sprout multiple limbs, Sato doesn’t have much else going for him. What also doesn’t help is that his Quirk has a terrible drawback of cognitive impairment. Shoji just needs to outlast Sato with his endurance and stamina.
