A member of the police force explained that the people in question were more of victims than villains. While [[Enji Todoroki|Endeavor]] argued that they should be treated as villains, [[Toshinori Yagi|All Might]], who was not present, had his reply to the problem delivered by [[Naomasa Tsukauchi]].

− | After the attack on the U.S.J, [[U.A. High School]] is closed for a day. Snipe and the U.A. faculty meet with Police Detective [[Naomasa Tsukauchi]]. The detective informs them he was unable to find anything about Tomura or his partner [[Kurogiri]]. Snipe mentions that he injured Tomura, but the [[League of Villains]] will likely return after his gunshot wounds heal. [[Toshinori Yagi|All Might]] concludes that Tomura's behavior is that of a man-child and Naomasa adds that all of the villains who were apprehended were third-rate thugs that followed the League of Villains because they felt attracted to his childlike mindset.{{Ref|chap=22|page=|ep=14}} Snipe watches the [[U.A.

− | Prior to Final Exams at the end of the first years' first term, Snipe has another meeting with his fellow faculty members. This time they meet to discuss changing the Final Exams format. Snipe states that having students fight robots is impractical if fights against villains are going to intensify in the wake of [[Chizome Akaguro|Stain]]. He goes on to say that robots were originally used for the entrance exams to avoid complaints about injuries, but notes they are not challenging enough. |

Annoyed, Toru yells at Snipe for being perverted, but he pleads with her and explains it was an accident.{{Ref|ep=36}} |

She can pull off what my Quirk does with raw skill alone. From three kilometers away, no less! No way I'm competing with that!Snipe about Lady Nagant in "Hired Gun"
Snipe (スナイプ Sunaipu?) is a Pro Hero and a member of the teaching staff at U.A. High School. He is in charge of the third year students.[1]
Appearance
Snipe has the appearance of a stereotypical Western cowboy. His face is covered by an old-school tan gas mask, shaped a little like a horse’s muzzle, with triangular holes for his eyes and silver ear-defenders wired to the sides of the mask, but his dark, blueish shoulder-length dreadlocks are always visible from the back and sides. On his head, he wears a brown cowboy hat with a thick metallic plate at the front, a large "S" (standing for "Snipe") stamped in the center, and his footwear is gray boots with knee-high shafts and vamps with silver trims that dip a little at the front, a heel-band with a spur at the end attached to the back of each boot.
He wears a large red cloak, buttoned up at the top, with frayed ends, under which he wears a plain black tank top with white armor strapped over the right side of his torso, and a brown belt with a gun holster attached at his hip. He has baggy black or dark brown pants with light brown or yellow chaps over them in stereotypical cowboy fashion. On his arms, he wears black skin tight armguards going up to his biceps and on his hands and tan gloves.
Personality
Snipe's costume, Quirk and his overall mannerisms, including his accent in the English dub of the anime, are all similar to that of a traditional cowboy.
Being the head of U.A.'s senior students in the Hero Course, Snipe shows to be quite intelligent and knowledgeable when it comes to battle practice, as he pointed out that having the first year students face robots during the Final Exams wouldn't help them if they would continue to encounter Villains in the future.
Snipe is shown to be levelheaded and rational, as he dissuaded Present Mic raising the possibility of a traitor being in U.A., saying that they couldn’t afford to lose trust in one another. As a hero, he also has a clear morality, as he expressed open disdain for the Hero Public Safety Commission making the Work-Studies mandatory as to prepare the students for an upcoming villain conflict, knowing that they were trying to bring hero students in as additional manpower.
While often calm, he did freak out upon realising he accidentally bumped Toru Hagakure's chest with his elbow during his Final Exam battle, and frantically apologized to her.
