My quirk is trash. At least, that's what everyone thinks. "Mark and Projectile." Just a mark and a throw. But no quirk is useless with enough imagination. One touch is all it takes—after that, anything I launch will hunt its target. Reborn in My Hero Academia with only fragments of future knowledge, I know one thing: if I want to survive, I need to get stronger. Along the way, I'll make friends, make enemies, and prove that my "weak" quirk is far deadlier than anyone realizes.
