{{Tropelist|This arc contains examples of:}}
* [[Adults Are Useless]]: [[Inverted]] with Aizawa; the instant Bakugo tries to attack Midoriya, he ties him up with his capture weapon and nullifies his Quirk to prevent a brawl.
* [[Cassandra Truth]]: When Bakugo dismisses Midoriya as a "Quirkless loser", Iida counters because he's seen his Quirk in action. Bakugo doesn't believe it until he sees it for himself.
* [[Cast From Life Force]]: Recovery Girl's Quirk heals others not through undoing their injuries, but by stimulating the natural healing process, which drains her patient's stamina for a while. Therefore, Midoriya feels rather tired when his broken finger is fixed.
* [[Cheshire Cat Grin]]: Aizawa has a very awkward one on his face when he declares that he lied about expelling the worst performer.
* [[Color Failure]]: Midoriya's reaction to finding out the expulsion stipulation was a lie.
* [[Explosion Propulsion]]: Bakugo uses this to pitch his softball and manages to score over 700 meters with it.
* [[Fingore]]: Predictably, using One For All during the softball throw shatters Izuku's right index finger.
* [[I Lied]]: Right at the end of the test, Aizawa claims that his stipulation of expulsion was a lie meant to stimulate the students to do their best.
* [[Jaw Drop]]: Bakugo is completely gobsmacked when he sees that not only does Midoriya have a Quirk, but a very powerful one at that.
* [[Jerkass Has a Point]]: Cruel as he might seem to his students, Aizawa's criticism of Midoriya's reckless Quirk usage is completely on-point and acknowledged by the latter. Heroes who turn themselves into a liability through misuse of their Quirks are no good on the field.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Midoriya makes a very comical face of horror when Bakugo comes charging at him.
* [[Power Nullifier]]: Aizawa's Erasure Quirk prevents the effects of emitter and transformation Quirks, but not mutant Quirks.
* [[Readings Are Off the Scale]]: When Uraraka throws the softball, her Zero Gravity Quirk allows her to have it float for as long as she wants. Her score ends up being an "infinite" one, shocking all of her classmates.
* [[Take a Third Option]]: Seeing how a Quirkless throw won't get him anywhere near a good enough score to pass the test, and how using One For All on his whole arm would render it completely useless for the rest of the test, Midoriya opts to flick the softball using only one finger. While he breaks it in the process, he's still capable enough to power through the rest of the test.
* [[Three Amigos]]: By the end of this arc, it's readily apparent that Midoriya, Uraraka and Iida have started to become friends. They've stayed together since.
* [[Wacky Homeroom]]: How many of the students are introduced, and it's clear it's just going to get wackier.
* [[Was It All a Lie?]]: A rather extreme variation, as Bakugo seems to assume in these episodes that Midoriya was lying about being Quirkless, and keeping his powers a secret for years. He doesn't take it very well.
* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Aizawa's Erasure Quirk is a very potent power for dealing with opponents, but according to him, it's hindered by a major nuisance - he has dry eye and has to use it for a limited time, which is why he complains about using it in class.
