1!! Hero Class Civil Warfare
2* We see that as a villain, Midoriya would be absolutely terrifying. The fact that he is very good at analysis and figuring out the best way to use that information works for him very well. There's a reason why the blurb states he's showing people they should be glad he didn't go the villain route.
3** It is all too easy to imagine this as a real-life event rather than a school exercise at some points. A hero team led by an abrasive, self-important icon is confronted by a villain who knows their leader inside and out. This villain has no problem leaving a trail of bodies and broken buildings in his wake, and his blitzkrieg of crime runs an ever-dwindling team of heroes ragged through failure after failure as superior planning, equipment, training, and teamwork propel his criminal empire to total domination.
4* The first scene at the bank, described as chaos with broken or faintly struggling civilian-bot bodies. It's too easy to imagine the robotic civilians replaced with dead or dying people.
5* Midoriya blows up a bank. Cheerfully.
6* Tsuyu's "death" in the sewers. After Tsuyu becomes separated from her group, she encounters [[CastingAShadow Kuroiro]], who promptly uses his Quirk to erase all the light around him and sends forward the shadows in the shape of grasping hands. The sight of it gives her flashbacks to when where [[MakeThemRot Tomura]] nearly grabbed her, causing her to blunder into a paint bomb as she flees in panic. Her teammates only find out she's gone when they happen across the note she scrawled in the paint, which looks eerily like [[CouldntFindAPen blood]].
7** Earlier in the sewers, Tokoyami keeps the Heroes on edge by continually sending Dark Shadow back and forth, all while it laughs maniacally. It's one of the moments where you wonder whether the Villains are playing their part well, or [[EvilFeelsGood they are enjoying it too much]].
8* In one of his actions, Shoji quickly takes out a dozen "security guards" with his multiple hands by either crushing their skulls or just ripping their heads off. Remember that the big guy canonically has the strength to do so.
9* Monoma copies Setsuna's Quirk and rips off his broken arms in order to regrow them. And before that, he had chopped off the tip of his pinky finger to test it. The former moment causes Present Mic, who is monitoring the exercise along with the other teachers, to ''throw up''.

11!! Intersection
12* Extortion uses her Quirk to garrote a robot and then she, Lift (Yanagi), and Drug Runner (Mina) melt the body and Extortion's hands in acid. Extortion is visibly disturbed by the whole ordeal, like she had killed a human being.
13* The villain team drugs Momo, Awase, and Fukidashi and has Con Man brainwash them into building them an underground bunker before executing the three as ''an event within a party''. A fourth victim is a robot that was convinced to give up his part of a special code before being callously "killed".
14* Powerhouse attacks Kingpin in a storage room and just when things seem to calm down, and they start talking things out, Powerhouse flips out (he thinks Kingpin is making him talk about his past bullying while the teachers are monitoring them, so as to have him expelled) and attacks even more ferociously than before, trying to maim Kingpin seriously. Even worse, the storage room contains crates filled with vials of Powerhouse's sweat. Even Kingpin shooting him with one of the paint guns (and thus eliminating Powerhouse from the game) doesn't stop him, and it takes Ectoplasm knocking Powerhouse out and physically removing him from the area to stop him. [[WordOfGod The author]] said right that moment Kingpin is so terrified he's basically regressing to the times he was bullied in middle school.
15* During the FinalBattle, the villains go as far as using methods that put some of their own in danger, prioritizing the results over the well-being of their comrades. They crash an helicopter (a model made life-sized with Kodai's quirk) next to the cells where some of them are imprisoned in order to free them, and shortly later Temperance covers a downed Kendou with fake blood only to provoke and distract Tokoyami and let Prism narcotize him, just in time before a furious Dark Shadow attacks Animal. It would have taken very little for some people to be seriously injured.
