Shin Nemoto/Synopsis

History
Shin used to be a hardened con artist, becoming aware of how people always masked their true nature and weaknesses, even if they were unaware of it themselves. Those he spoke to would always lie to him before Shin forced them to tell the truth, leading them to keep their distance from the con man as he grew further disillusioned.

Shin joined Shie Hassaikai after being intentionally scouted by them. Overhaul's villainous, yet honest intentions convinced Shin to accept his new purpose in life.

Shie Hassaikai Arc
Overhaul, Chronostasis, Shin, and another Shie Hassaikai member defeat Team Reservoir Dogs and destroy their getaway vehicle.

When Overhaul starts fighting the League of Villains, members of the Eight Precepts of Death come to his aid, including Shin. Tomura Shigaraki decides not to continue the fight, and the yakuza leave.

When multiple Pro Heroes, their interns, and the Police Force invade the Precepts' HQ, the Eight Expendables are sent to fight the heroes to buy time for Overhaul to escape. Shin is teamed up with Deidoro Sakaki and they confront Mirio in the tunnels beneath the compound. Deidoro uses his Quirk to destabilize Mirio's balance, giving Shin a chance to shoot him with his gun, failing to do so due to Mirio's Permeation. Shin uses his Quirk to break Mirio's will to fight convincing him that he is only saving Eri to make himself feel better, because he had to overlook her suffering so things could proceed smoothly. When Shin and Deidoro try to finish off Mirio, he regains his will by accepting his "sin", and his desire to make Eri happy overcomes their Quirk long enough to use his Killing Move: Phantom Menace to defeat both.

Even being completely subjugated by Mirio, Shin's devotion to Overhaul allows him to keep his consciousness and to drag himself to where Overhaul is. Overhaul throws a cartridge with special bullets at Shin and tells him to shoot.

Quickly remembering Mirio's strong devotion to save Eri, he fires at the girl, anticipating Mirio to jump in and take the the Quirk destroying bullet himself. Mirio does exactly this, covering Eri as the bullet is shot into his body which begins destroying Mirio's Permeation. Overhaul states that due to Quirks people are entitled to dream and begin thinking that they become people that matter, to which Overhaul believes that these people are sick in the head. As Shin celebrates his triumph, Overhaul laughs at Mirio's efforts and mocks Mirio for smiling because everything he has worked so hard to cultivate has been reduced to naught. As Overhaul is about to deconstruct the ground, Chronostasis is thrown at him, courtesy of Mirio's kick. Mirio appears before Overhaul and punches his arm. Mirio tells Overhaul that all his hard work isn't in vain because he will still be Lemillion. Overhaul tries attacking Mirio but Mirio is still able to make his body intangible, which causes Overhaul to miss. Shin is shocked that Mirio's Quirk hasn't completely been destroyed yet.

Overhaul refuses to allow his plans to be ruined by the Heroes. Overhaul knows that Shin Nemoto also wants him to succeed and approaches him. Overhaul thanks Shin for everything he has done for him and knows fully well that he will gladly die for his sake. Overhaul uses his Quirk and destroys both himself and Shin. Overhaul and Shin's deconstructed bodies reconstruct and fuse together with Overhaul, much to Izuku's horror.

Overhaul admits that Mirio was stronger than him but his efforts will all be in vain. The fused and transformed Overhaul appears, looking monstrous and grotesque with sharp bird-like arms from his shoulder blades and his original arms becoming larger with sharp claws. The transformed Overhaul declares that Eri will be returning to him.

Shin is later separated from Overhaul because of Eri's Rewind Quirk while the yakuza leader is attempting to escape the complex. He is presumably arrested along with the rest of the precepts after Overhaul's defeat.
