Neither Midoriya nor Class 1-A is a villain in this conflict, but that doesn't stop Midoriya from trying to escape his friends. However, he is beyond exhausted at this point and is struggling to stay awake.
This makes it easy for Class 1-A to overwhelm him as he's unable to mount a significant offense. Perhaps a part of him wanted to be captured all along, given how peaceful he is as he resigns himself to this fate.

4 Villa Raid Team & Trainees VS Paranormal Liberation Front
Gigantomachia's Might Is Too Much For The Pro Heroes
- Occurs In: Paranormal Liberation War Arc
Gigantomachia is one of the most powerful villains in the series, who was about to go on a rampage and trash the entirety of Japan. The Pro Heroes couldn't let this happen and decided to carry out a plan to stop this behemoth.
Using sedatives to knock Gigantomachia out was a bold plan, but the heroes simply couldn't prepare for the might of this immense villain. Despite everyone giving it their all, heroes like Majestic and Midnight were killed by this beast as he powered through and beat the Pro Heroes, going on a rampage throughout the country.

Nighteye and his team were confident that they could take on Overhaul and defeat him. However, for the first time in his life, Nighteye's Foresight Quirk failed him as he was unable to find a way to fight back against the overwhelming might of Chisaki's Quirk.
This led to him being mortally wounded as he lost all hope. If he wasn't too dependent on his Quirk and believed in himself, he could've survived, but Nighteye's reliance on Foresight was so strong that this battle would've ended with his demise every single time.

However, it doesn't take long for Tokoyami to realize that he's completely outclassed against this villain. If it hadn't been for Geten's ice, Tokoyami would've become yet another casualty during the Paranormal Liberation War.
