Eraser Head, also known as Shota Aizawa, is a beloved character in the My Hero Academia series. His Erasure Quirk has made him a formidable hero and a mentor to many. However, fans have often wondered about the limitations and potential losses of his powerful ability. Let’s delve into some of the most frequently asked questions about Aizawa’s Quirk.
Why did Aizawa erase Deku’s quirk?
Aizawa’s Quirk, Erasure, allows him to nullify the Quirks of anyone he looks at. He used it on Deku for two main reasons:
- To apologize for his tardiness and the discomfort it caused Deku. Aizawa’s late arrival caused Deku to stand outside in the cold for an extended period of time, making him shiver and suffer. Aizawa, being the conscientious teacher he is, felt responsible for Deku’s discomfort and apologized by temporarily erasing his Quirk, allowing him to temporarily regain control over his body temperature.
- To demonstrate the effectiveness of Erasure on Deku. Aizawa understands the complex nature of Deku’s Quirk, One for All, and the potential dangers it poses if not controlled properly. By erasing Deku’s Quirk, he effectively neutralized any potential threat that could arise from its uncontrolled activation. This served as a practical demonstration of his Quirk’s capabilities and the importance of controlling One for All.
It’s important to note that Aizawa did not erase Deku’s Quirk out of malice or to punish him. In fact, Aizawa is a dedicated teacher who genuinely cares about the well-being and development of his students. His actions were motivated by a desire to protect Deku and ensure his safety, as well as to demonstrate the importance of Quirk control.
What episode does aizawa lose his quirk
In My Hero Academia, Aizawa lost his Quirk in Season 6, Episode 8, after being shot with a Quirk-suppressing bullet from Shigaraki Tomura. Although the bullet only hit his leg, Aizawa’s Quirk remains inactive even after losing a significant amount of blood and being in immense pain.
Is Aizawa’s quirk permanent?
Aizawa’s Erasure Quirk is not permanent. It requires him to maintain eye contact with his target to deactivate their Quirk. Once he breaks eye contact or his Quirk is overwhelmed, the target’s Quirk will reactivate. However, there are limitations to his Quirk, such as the strain it can put on his body and the potential for countermeasures.
Does Aizawa get his quirk back?
Aizawa cannot currently use his Erasure quirk due to an injury sustained during the Paranormal Liberation War. During the battle, he was forced to amputate his leg to prevent a quirk-destroying bullet from spreading throughout his body. As his quirk is eye-based, the injury has rendered him incapable of using it.
However, there is hope for Aizawa to regain his quirk in the future. Class 1-B student, Neito Monoma, can copy quirks for a limited amount of time. This means that Monoma could potentially copy Aizawa’s quirk and use it to help him. Additionally, the Quirk Awakening Theory suggests that quirks can return under certain conditions. This theory is based on the observation that some people have regained their lost quirks after experiencing near-death experiences or other traumatic events.
Conclusion
Aizawa’s quirk plays a significant role in the My Hero Academia series, both as a tool for his teaching and as a part of his complex character. While he faces many challenges, losing his quirk is not one of them. Instead, his character evolves through his relationships with students and his leadership roles.
