1. #1Yosetsu Awase

   Keys: Yosetsu Awase, Welder, Class 1-B

   Yosetsu Awase (also known as Welder) is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School training to become a Pro Hero. He later graduated and became a professional hero eight years after the Final War.

   Appearance

   Yosetsu has long black hair spiked upward and backward, rounded gray eyes tilted inward, and wears a distinctive blue and white zig-zag patterned headband. His hero costume consists of a burgundy full-body suit with dark brown shoulder pads, three-layered chest armor that can shield his face, white knee-high boots, and two blue bags on his belt containing items like wood and metal blocks to aid his Quirk.

   Personality

   Yosetsu is foul-mouthed and tense in normal situations but becomes startled and more talkative during life-or-death scenarios while retaining his harsh speech pattern. He is extremely selfless, demonstrated when he refused to abandon Momo Yaoyorozu despite being pursued by a dangerous Nomu. He doesn't take the rivalry between Class 1-A and 1-B seriously, willing to knock out Neito Monoma to stop his antagonistic behavior. He takes pride in his Quirk and is confident in his abilities.

   Quirk: Weld

   Yosetsu's Quirk allows him to fuse objects at an atomic level by touching both objects simultaneously. This ability works on both organic and inorganic materials, making it highly versatile for restraining enemies by binding them to structures or facilitating transport of immobile allies by fusing body parts together. His signature move is Construction-Done-Kwik: Weldcraft, where he swiftly binds opponents to structures using metallic logs.

   Abilities

   Yosetsu ranked 10th in the U.A. Entrance Exam with 50 villain points and 6 rescue points. He excels at using his Quirk for restraint and incapacitation, possesses strong stealth capabilities, and successfully ambushed powerful opponents like Katsuki Bakugo during the Joint Training Battle. His hero costume includes steel logs for extending his binding range and shields that serve as defensive armor.

   Notable Events

   • Participated in the U.A. Sports Festival (Obstacle Race and Cavalry Battle)
   • Rescued Momo Yaoyorozu during the Vanguard Action Squad Invasion, fighting alongside her against a Chainsaw Nomu
   • Competed in the Joint Training Battle (Round 4) where he demonstrated his tactical prowess against Class 1-A
   • Participated in Hero Work-Studies and the Paranormal Liberation War
2. #2Yoichi Shigaraki

   Keys: Yoichi, First One For All User, Yoichi Shigaraki

   Yoichi Shigaraki is the overarching protagonist of My Hero Academia and the first user of One For All. He was the younger twin brother of All For One (real name: Zen Shigaraki), the infamous Quirk-stealing villain.

   Background

   Born during the dawn of the Quirk era, Yoichi was physically weak and malnourished from birth. He was presumed Quirkless for most of his life and could only watch helplessly as his brother committed atrocities. Despite his frail body, Yoichi possessed a strong sense of justice that directly opposed All For One's megalomaniacal ambitions.

   Appearance

   Yoichi was a young man with white, messy shoulder-length hair similar to Tomura Shigaraki's, with bangs that obscured his bright green eyes. His sickly, malnourished appearance reflected his weak physical condition. He typically wore simple clothes: a white shirt, dark pants, and occasionally a light blue jacket.

   Quirk: One For All Origin

   When All For One forcibly implanted the Power Stock Quirk within Yoichi, it merged with his dormant Quirk Bestowal ability—a meta-ability that allowed him to transfer quirks to others. This fusion created One For All. Due to his weak body, Yoichi couldn't effectively use the stockpiling power, so he passed it to Toshitsugu Kudo, beginning the legacy of successors who would eventually stop All For One.

   Personality

   Despite abuse from his brother, Yoichi maintained hope that Zen had goodness within him, remembering how he held his hand as babies. These hopes vanished when All For One killed the Luminescent Baby out of jealousy. While Yoichi doesn't openly hate his brother, he's disgusted by Zen's cruelty and laments that the power to give and take "could have been the kindest power the world's ever known."

   Yoichi is friendly with all One For All successors and holds Izuku Midoriya in high regard, impressed by his conviction to help even enemies. He possesses extraordinary mental fortitude, resisting All For One's attempts to steal One For All from the vestige world.

   Legacy

   After being slain by All For One, Yoichi's Quirk passed through multiple successors, growing stronger with each generation. His vestige remains within One For All, supporting and guiding its wielders in their battle against his brother's evil.

3. #3Yuga Aoyama

   Keys: Navel Laser, U.A. Traitor, Yuga Aoyama, Can't Stop Twinkling

   Yuga Aoyama, also known as the Shining Hero: Can't Stop Twinkling, is a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High School training to become a Pro Hero. He is a young man with long blond hair, bright indigo eyes, and a flamboyant, vain personality that masks deep insecurities.

   Quirk: Navel Laser

   Yuga's Quirk allows him to fire powerful sparkling laser beams from his navel, capable of blasting through concrete. However, he was born Quirkless and received this ability from All For One, making his body incompatible with it. He requires a special support belt to use it properly and suffers stomach pain if overused. Through training, he has developed ultimate moves like Navel Buffet☆Laser and Navel Saber.

   The U.A. Traitor

   Yuga was revealed to be the U.A. Traitor, forced by All For One to spy on his classmates and leak information to the League of Villains. His parents contacted All For One to give their Quirkless son a power, placing the family in his debt. Despite this betrayal, Yuga never held villainous intentions and harbored immense guilt for endangering his friends.

   Redemption and Growth

   During the Final War, Yuga turned against All For One with help from Class 1-A, particularly Izuku Midoriya and Toru Hagakure. He helped deceive the villain and fought alongside the heroes. After the war, he voluntarily left U.A. to atone for his actions, later re-enrolling in a Hero program. Eight years later, he achieved his dream of becoming a Pro Hero and works as a Sidekick for Toru Hagakure.

   Personality

   Beneath his narcissistic façade, Yuga is compassionate and observant. He relates to Izuku due to their shared experience of receiving Quirks externally. His flamboyant mannerisms and French-influenced speech (ending sentences with ☆) hide his fear and self-loathing as the traitor. Once freed from All For One's control, he becomes more genuine with his classmates.

4. #4Yu Takeyama (Mt. Lady)

   Keys: Mt. Lady, Peak Hero, Yu Takeyama, Gigantification

   Yu Takeyama, also known as the Peak Hero: Mt. Lady, is currently the No. 3 Pro Hero in Japan and a member of The Lurkers hero team. She possesses the Gigantification Quirk, which allows her to grow from her normal height of 162cm to a towering 2,062cm (67 feet 8 inches), though she cannot vary between these two sizes.

   Appearance

   Yu is a young woman with a curvaceous frame, magenta eyes with white pupils, and voluminous creamy blonde hair reaching her waist. Her hero costume is a purple and tan skin-tight bodysuit with orange accents. Following the Paranormal Liberation War, she bears a scar over her left eye.

   Personality

   Yu is ambitious and egotistical, enjoying the fame that comes with being a hero. She is vain and uses her sex appeal to gain popularity, though she has a fierce temperament and isn't afraid to provoke others. Despite her vanity and laziness during internships, she is brave and selfless when the situation demands it, taking her job seriously and protecting civilians. After All Might's retirement, she became more earnest about her hero work, demonstrating commitment by not quitting despite rising anti-hero sentiment.

   Abilities

   In her giant form, Yu possesses immense strength capable of defeating other giant villains and competing with powerful enemies like Geten and Gigantomachia. Her immense durability allows her to survive devastating attacks, including All For One's Air Cannon. Her Ultimate Moves include Canyon Cannon (a flying kick) and Titan Cliff (a headbutt attack).

   Role

   She debuted by stealing the spotlight from Kamui Woods and has participated in major events including the Kamino Incident, the Paranormal Liberation War, and the Final War. Her hero ranking has risen significantly from No. 23 to No. 3, making her the highest-ranking female Pro Hero in Japan.

5. #5Yui Kodai

   Keys: Yui Kodai, Rule, Size Quirk, Class 1-B

   Yui Kodai, also known by her hero name Rule, is a Pro Hero and graduate of U.A. High School's Class 1-B. She is a quiet, reserved young woman with shoulder-length bob-shaped hair, cerulean eyes, and fair skin. Despite rarely expressing emotions and being considered a kuudere by her classmates, Yui cares deeply for her peers and has shown bravery during critical situations.

   Quirk: Size - Yui's Quirk allows her to alter the size of any inanimate object she touches, either enlarging or shrinking it. She can return objects to their original size by pressing her fingertips together. While not directly combat-oriented, she uses this ability strategically to support allies by creating improvised weapons or obstacles.

   Combat Style: Yui excels in support roles, working collaboratively with teammates like Reiko Yanagi (Poltergeist) and Nirengeki Shoda (Twin Impact) to create devastating combo attacks. During the Joint Training Battle, she demonstrated excellent tactical coordination despite being defeated by Ochaco Uraraka. In the Final War, she proved crucial in helping Mt. Lady subdue Gigantomachia by supplying enlarged levitating weapons.

   Personality: Yui is extremely quiet and expresses happiness with simple sounds like "Mm!" Her favorite food is tomatoes. Despite her stoic demeanor, she is popular among her peers and was unaware of having a fan club in middle school. She possesses "nerves of steel" and maintains composure even in dangerous situations, as shown when caring for unconscious classmates during the Vanguard Action Squad Invasion.

6. #6Yo Shindo (Grand)

   Keys: Ketsubutsu, Yo Shindo, Grand, Vibrate

   Yo Shindo, also known by his hero name Grand, is a pro hero who graduated from Ketsubutsu Academy High School. Eight years after the Final War, he has risen to become the No. 20 ranked hero in Japan.

   Appearance

   Yo is a tall, muscular young man with dark brown, almost black hair that sticks up in all directions, similar to Izuku Midoriya's style. As a pro hero, he now wears his hair shorter and swept upward, with a front portion dyed dark green. His hero costume features a gold jaw-guard that protects his head from vibrations when using his Quirk, green shoulder straps, black chest plates with golden trim, and baggy pants with green markings.

   Personality

   Yo presents himself as polite and friendly, but this is often a calculated facade. He is actually cunning, tactical, and competitive, with a personality that can shift dramatically—especially when angered. Despite his manipulative tendencies, he is a natural leader with strong strategic thinking and respects those who work hard toward their goals. He believes heroes should possess "a rock-hard spirit that refuses to bend or break."

   Quirk: Vibrate

   Yo's Quirk allows him to vibrate anything he touches, including the ground to create powerful earthquakes. His signature ultimate move, Tremoring Earth, unleashes maximum-power tremors that completely shatter the terrain. The constant use of his Quirk has given him natural resistance to vibrations, providing an advantage against similar abilities. However, the aftershocks can temporarily immobilize him.

   Abilities

   Yo excels at disrupting enemy formations with area-of-effect earthquakes, making him extremely effective when outnumbered. He demonstrated strong leadership during the Provisional Hero License Exam, successfully coordinating his classmates and using tactical deception to separate Class 1-A students. While he struggled against top-tier opponents like Gang Orca and Muscular in direct combat, his strategic mind and vibration resistance make him a formidable hero.

   Relationships

   Yo is in a relationship with his fellow Ketsubutsu Academy classmate, Tatami Nakagame. During his school years, he worked closely with classmates like Shikkui Makabe and Itejiro Toteki.

7. #7Uwabami

   Keys: Serpentress, Snake Hero, Uwabami

   Uwabami (Snake Hero) is a Pro Hero and celebrity known for her distinctive appearance and dual career. She is a curvy woman with long blonde hair styled in curly locks, golden eyes with vertically slit pupils, and three live snakes (a rattlesnake, a yellow King cobra, and a Japanese rat snake) protruding from her hair. Her hero costume consists of a maroon dress with scale-like details, matching high heels, a choker, and golden snake-like bracelets.

   Personality: Uwabami possesses a celebrity-like attitude while remaining calm and level-headed. She prioritizes her modeling jobs over hero work, often choosing interns based on their appearance for commercial appeal. Despite this superficial approach, she does not neglect her hero obligations and actively participates in rescue operations.

   Quirk - Serpentress: Her Quirk gives her three live snakes growing from her head with acute senses, allowing her to locate hidden criminals and disaster victims with remarkable precision.

   Role in Series: Uwabami served as the internship mentor for Momo Yaoyorozu and Itsuka Kendo during the Vs. Hero Killer Arc, though much of their internship involved photoshoots and commercials rather than traditional hero training. She participated in rescue operations following All Might's battle with All For One and was assigned to the Hospital Raid Team during the Paranormal Liberation War Arc led by Endeavor.

   Stats: According to the Ultra Archive Book, she excels in Technique (A-rank) and demonstrates strong Intelligence and Cooperativeness (both B-rank), though her Power and Speed are limited (E and D-rank respectively).

8. #8Tsuyu Asui (Froppy)

   Keys: Froppy, Tsu, Tsuyu Asui

   Tsuyu Asui, also known by her hero name Froppy, is a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High School training to become a Pro Hero. Eight years after the Final War, she graduated and became the No. 34 Pro Hero.

   Appearance

   Tsuyu has a frog-like appearance with a wide mouth, large black eyes with pronounced lower eyelashes, and dark sea-green hair reaching her hips tied in a bow. She has notably large hands and demonstrates frog-like mannerisms such as hopping on all fours. Her hero costume is a bright green bodysuit with goggles, webbed flippers, and temperature-regulating equipment for her winter variant.

   Personality

   Tsuyu is straightforward, aloof, and speaks bluntly. She prefers being called "Tsu" by friends and refers to others with the honorific "-chan". Due to caring for her younger siblings from a young age, she became highly mature and responsible with strong morals. She is calm and collected even in stressful situations, making her an excellent pillar of emotional support. She habitually tips her finger against her mouth and says "ribbit" at the end of sentences.

   Quirk: Frog

   Tsuyu's Quirk grants her frog physiology with multiple abilities:

   • Enhanced swimming
   • Long-distance hopping
   • Tongue extension up to 20 meters
   • Wall-sticking
   • Camouflage
   • Secreting mucus with various effects (paralysis, scent masking, itch-inducing)

   Her weakness is exposure to cold temperatures, which causes hibernation.

   Abilities

   Tsuyu excels in both close and long-range combat using agility, powerful leg strength, and her elongated tongue. She is highly proficient in aquatic environments and demonstrates excellent teamwork. An honor student who ranked 6th in midterm scores, she possesses keen analytical skills and level-headedness that make her one of the strongest female students in her class.

   Relationships

   Tsuyu is close friends with her Class 1-A classmates, particularly Ochaco Uraraka. She was personally selected alongside Ochaco to confront Himiko Toga during the Final War due to past experiences.

9. #9Tsunagu Hakamada (Best Jeanist)

   Keys: Tsunagu Hakamada, Fiber Hero, Fiber Master, Best Jeanist

   Tsunagu Hakamada, known as the Fiber Hero: Best Jeanist, is currently the No. 5 Pro Hero in Japan. He previously held the No. 3 and No. 4 positions and won the "Best Jeanist" award for eight consecutive years. Tsunagu is a tall, slim man with an unnaturally long and flexible neck, dark lashed eyes, and long blond hair combed dramatically to the left. His hero costume consists entirely of denim—jeans, a waistcoat, and a high-collared dress shirt that covers his face below the nose.

   Personality: Tsunagu is elegant and flamboyant, believing strongly that influential people must maintain positive appearances both physically and socially. He frequently uses metaphors about jeans, denim, and fabric in his speeches. He is selfless, brave, and charismatic, taking his hero role seriously and believing real heroes don't make excuses. While he dislikes brutish individuals like Katsuki Bakugo, he attempted to reform the young hero's attitude during his internship.

   Quirk - Fiber Master: Tsunagu can freely manipulate threads in nearby fabric. His Quirk works best with denim but is less effective on materials like sweats. He can also control non-clothing fibers like carbon fiber. He uses this power primarily to restrain targets by unraveling his denim costume into controllable strings or manipulating enemies' clothing against them. His mastery is so exceptional that even All For One chose not to steal it due to its difficulty.

   Combat Abilities: As a top-ranked hero, Tsunagu is exceptionally powerful. During the Kamino Incident, he successfully restrained multiple Nomu and temporarily immobilized All For One himself, though he sustained grievous injuries. After months of recovery from a death-like medical procedure, he made a dramatic return during the Paranormal Liberation War, single-handedly restraining six powerful villains including Gigantomachia, Tomura Shigaraki, and Dabi using industrial-strength fiber cables. He later led the hero team assisting Deku at U.A. Fortress during the Final War.

   Ultimate Moves: His techniques include Blackout Bind (suffocation via neck threads), Catching Cradle (safety net creation), Clothing Is the Cage of Our Times (enemy restraint via their clothing), and Thread of Hope (simultaneous manipulation of multiple fiber sources for mass restraint).

10. #10Toshinori Yagi (All Might)

    Keys: Toshinori Yagi, All Might, Symbol of Peace

    Toshinori Yagi, also known as All Might, is one of the main characters of My Hero Academia. He was formerly the No. 1 Pro Hero and the eighth holder of the One For All Quirk, earning the title of the Symbol of Peace. All Might is recognizable by his muscular, towering form with blond hair and striking blue eyes, though his true form is emaciated due to severe injuries from his first battle with All For One, which destroyed his stomach and respiratory system.

    All Might's personality embodies optimism and heroism. In his hero form, he is exuberant, dramatic, and always smiling to inspire hope and calm fear. His catchphrase is "I am here!" However, in his weakened true form, he becomes more reserved and solemn. Despite his cheerful exterior, All Might carries the burden of being humanity's pillar, often struggling with self-doubt and the fear of failing society.

    After sustaining a mortal wound from All For One, All Might's time limit for using One For All gradually decreased until he used up all remaining power in their rematch, retiring from hero work. He passed One For All to Izuku Midoriya, whom he trains as his successor. All Might now serves as a teacher at U.A. High School, instructing Foundational Hero Studies, and later becomes the school's vice principal.

    All Might's legacy profoundly shaped hero society, though his overwhelming presence led to unintended consequences, including society's over-reliance on heroes. Even after retirement, his spirit and guidance continue to inspire the next generation of heroes. During the Final War, he donned the Armored All Might suit to face All For One one last time, demonstrating his unwavering resolve to protect others despite being Quirkless.

11. #11Toru Hagakure

    Keys: Invisibility, Toru Hagakure, Invisible Girl

    Toru Hagakure (葉隠透), also known as the Stealth Hero: Invisible Girl, is a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High School training to become a Pro Hero. Eight years after the Final War, she has graduated and is currently the No. 39 Hero.

    Physical Appearance

    Toru has a completely invisible body, making her identifiable only through held or worn objects like clothing and accessories. When her invisibility glitched after refracting Yuga Aoyama's empowered Navel Laser, it was revealed she has long, messy, wavy, multicolored hair, bushy eyelashes of the same mix of colors, and big round eyes with teal outer irises and yellow inner irises.

    Personality

    Toru is bubbly, cheery, and easygoing with an upbeat attitude. She's socially eager, enjoys shopping, and has a romantic side similar to Mina Ashido. Despite her cheerful demeanor, she is observant and emotionally fragile when faced with betrayal. She's a reliable Class 1-A member who is always ready to help in battle or support situations.

    Quirk: Invisibility

    Toru's Quirk renders her body completely invisible, granting exceptional stealth capabilities ideal for espionage and ambush tactics. Beyond stealth, she can refract light passing through her body to create blinding flashes or manipulate light-based attacks. After training with Hero Yoroi Musha during her Hero Work-Studies, she refined this ability to redirect attacks like Yuga's Navel Laser. Her Quirk is permanently active but can glitch under certain conditions, temporarily revealing her appearance.

    Ultimate Moves

    • Warp Refraction: Say Cheese! - Warps sunlight into bright flashes to temporarily blind opponents
    • Warp Refraction: Navel Laser - Manipulates Yuga's Navel Laser light, spreading it in all directions to blind and damage everything in the vicinity

    Combat Abilities

    Toru excels in stealth and surprise attacks, using her invisibility to launch difficult-to-defend assaults with punches, kicks, and light-warping techniques. She demonstrates strong teamwork, coordinating with classmates like Mezo Shoji. While lacking raw power, she compensates by using external light sources to enhance her offensive capabilities, as demonstrated when she defeated Kunieda and defended against All For One's Omni-Factor Unleash.

12. #12Tomura Shigaraki

    Keys: League of Villains, Tenko Shimura, Tomura Shigaraki, Shigaraki

    Tomura Shigaraki (real name Tenko Shimura) is the main antagonist of My Hero Academia. He is the leader of the League of Villains and later the Paranormal Liberation Front, raised by All For One to become the Symbol of Fear and destroy hero society.

    Appearance: A slim young man with pale, wrinkled skin, grayish-blue hair (later white), and bright red eyes. He wears fourteen embalmed hands across his body—remnants of his deceased family members. The hand covering his face, called "Father," belonged to his abusive father Kotaro.

    Personality: Initially portrayed as a childish, irritable "man-child" who scratches his neck when frustrated. He evolves into a calculating, nihilistic leader driven by hatred for hero society. Despite his cruelty, he genuinely cares for his League allies. His past trauma—accidentally killing his family as a child—shapes his desire to destroy everything.

    Quirk - Decay: Disintegrates anything he touches with all five fingers. After awakening during his battle with Re-Destro, Decay spreads rapidly across large areas and can be activated with fewer fingers. The Quirk was secretly given to him by All For One.

    Quirk - All For One: Inherited from his master, allowing him to steal and use multiple Quirks including Super Regeneration, Search, Air Cannon, and Rivet Stab. The vestige of All For One attempts to possess his body.

    Abilities: After surgical modifications by Dr. Garaki, Tomura possesses strength rivaling All Might's prime, immense speed, durability, and stamina. His body adapts through accelerated growth and can transform into monstrous defensive forms.

    Background: Born Tenko Shimura, grandson of hero Nana Shimura. His Quirk manifested during childhood abuse, killing his entire family. All For One manipulated these events, grooming Tenko into Tomura Shigaraki to eventually become his vessel and destroy One For All.

13. #13Tomoko Shiretoko (Ragdoll)

    Keys: Tomoko Shiretoko, Ragdoll, Wild, Wild Pussycats, Search Quirk

    Tomoko Shiretoko, also known by her hero name Ragdoll, is a former Pro Hero and member of the Wild, Wild Pussycats hero team. She previously held the rank of No. 32 Pro Hero before losing her Quirk.

    Appearance

    Tomoko is a young woman of medium height with long emerald green hair and distinctive large, round yellow eyes that are almost always wide open. She wears a yellow version of the Pussycats' hero costume and draws pink whisker-like marks on her cheeks with a pink circle around her right eye. Eight years after the Final War, she cuts her hair short and styles it into two buns.

    Personality

    Even among the eccentric Wild, Wild Pussycats, Ragdoll stands out as the most hyperactive member. She displays extreme energy through constant movement and blinking, making her unable to remain still. After losing her Quirk to All For One during the Vanguard Action Squad Invasion at the training camp, she became distraught and broken down. However, she eventually recovered her cheerful personality and continues supporting her teammates despite no longer being able to work as a hero. During the Final War, she joins All Might's Counter-Force, unwilling to stand by while her stolen Quirk is used for evil.

    Former Quirk: Search

    Ragdoll's Quirk, Search, allowed her to observe and monitor up to 100 people simultaneously, including their locations and weak points. The Quirk also stored gathered data in her memory, making her invaluable for rescue operations and support. She could track 40 hero course students during training exercises. All For One stole this Quirk from her during the Forest Training Camp attack, leaving her Quirkless and unable to continue her hero career.

    Role

    As a member of the Wild, Wild Pussycats, Ragdoll specialized in rescue and support operations. It was her idea to form the team originally. Despite losing her Quirk and hero status, she remains affiliated with the Pussycats and continues to support hero operations in non-combat roles.

14. #14Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu (Real Steel)

    Keys: Real Steel, Class 1-B, Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu

    Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, hero name Real Steel, is a student from Class 1-B at U.A. High School training to become a Pro Hero. Eight years after the Final War, he becomes the No. 26 Pro Hero.

    Appearance

    Tetsutetsu is a young man with chin-length messy gray hair, dramatically inward-tilted black eyes lined with thick jagged tan eyelashes, and rows of sharp pointed teeth. His hero costume features a dark pale green jumpsuit, steel straps, metal plating with "Fe" (iron) stamped on face plates, and a metal jaw-guard.

    Personality

    Tetsutetsu is hotheaded, outspoken, confident, and stubborn with a straightforward approach to problems. He's deeply competitive with Class 1-A and desires to prove Class 1-B's worth, especially against students like Katsuki Bakugo. Despite his aggressive nature, he cares deeply for his peers—he refused to attack villains before ensuring Ibara Shiozaki's safety and threw himself in front of a bullet for Itsuka Kendo. His determination often brings him to tears when he feels he's disappointed others.

    Quirk: Steel

    Tetsutetsu's Quirk allows him to transform his entire body into solid steel, granting significantly increased durability and strength. He can withstand bullets, falling debris, intense flames, and freezing attacks. His steel form enhances his physical power, allowing him to break through concrete and match physically formidable opponents blow-for-blow.

    Limitations: The transformation consumes iron from his body, requiring an iron-rich diet. Prolonged use causes "iron fatigue," reducing durability and strength. His metal body can melt under extreme temperatures and is vulnerable to magnetism. Unlike Hardening, Steel's hardness has a set limit that cannot naturally improve.

    Ultimate Moves

    • Steel Fist: A devastating reinforced punch delivered while fully metallic, strong enough to shatter ice and send opponents flying
    • Horn Dash Hammer: A team technique with Pony Tsunotori where she launches him like a projectile using her Horn Cannon
    • Heatetsu: When heated in steel form, he glows bright red and uses the heat offensively

    Relationships

    Tetsutetsu shares remarkable similarities with Eijiro Kirishima from Class 1-A (same birthday, similar Quirks, fighting styles, and personalities). Despite initial rivalry, they became friends. He's a valued member of Class 1-B alongside Itsuka Kendo and works under heroes like Fourth Kind and Fat Gum during internships.

    Combat Style

    Real Steel employs a straightforward, aggressive brawling style, using his steel body to absorb damage while delivering overwhelming counterattacks. He serves as a human shield for allies and excels in close-quarters combat. His tactical thinking allows him to deduce opponent weaknesses and bet on wars of attrition where his endurance gives him the advantage.

15. #15Togaru Kamakiri

    Keys: Togaru Kamakiri, Razor Sharp, Class 1-B, Jack Mantis

    Togaru Kamakiri (also known as Jack Mantis) is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School training to become a Pro Hero. He has pale yellow-green skin, a bright fluffy green mohawk, and a head shaped like a praying mantis with hooked blades jutting from his cheeks. His hero costume consists of a dark green rugged cloak, black trousers, and three-toed boots.

    Personality: Togaru is hotblooded and aggressive in behavior, similar to Katsuki Bakugo but to a lesser extent. He is gym buddies with Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu and sees Katsuki as a rival. He has a passion for combat and gets very excited in battle, eager to tear opponents apart. Despite his competitive nature and violent talk, he is cordial with classmates and encourages them to learn from defeats rather than be despondent.

    Quirk - Razor Sharp: Togaru's Quirk allows him to produce large, sharp blades from any part of his body. These blades are strong enough to cut through steel and iron pipes and durable enough to withstand point-blank explosions from Katsuki's Quirk. His reflexes are impressive enough to block Katsuki's attacks.

    Role in Story: Togaru participated in the U.A. Sports Festival, the Forest Training Camp, and was notably active during the Joint Training Battle (Round 4) against Class 1-A. Eight years after the Final War, he graduated from U.A. and became a Pro Hero.

Due to his Quirk, his calves are incredibly thick and shaped like automobile engines with six silver exhaust pipes protruding from each leg. His hero costume features lightweight silver armor designed to reduce air resistance, specialized boots, and a retractable helmet.

    Personality

    Despite his severe appearance, Tenya is straightforward, earnest, intelligent, and disciplined, though somewhat clueless about personal interactions due to his elite upbringing. He exhibits peculiar tics like strange chopping hand gestures and tends to take everything very seriously, often jumping to conclusions enthusiastically. As class representative, he's obsessed with organization and discipline, expecting classmates to follow suit. He's extremely humble, willing to admit mistakes and improve. Tenya values honor and fair play, and is proud of his lineage in the esteemed Ida Family, aspiring to uphold his older brother Tensei's hero legacy.

    Quirk: Engine

    Tenya's Quirk gives him car-like engines in his calves, granting incredible running speed and extreme kicking power. He must fuel his engines by drinking orange juice. His engines have multiple gears and require clear exhaust pipes to function properly. After removing and regrowing his mufflers using a secret family method, his speed increased dramatically.

    Appearance: Tenya is a tall, muscular young man with short dark blue hair, square eyes, and rectangular glasses. His most distinctive feature is his calves, which resemble automobile engines with six silver exhaust pipes protruding from each leg due to his Quirk. His hero costume consists of lightweight armor designed to reduce air resistance, including a retractable helmet, chest plate, and specialized boots that enhance his engine performance.

    Personality: Despite his severe appearance, Tenya is straightforward, earnest, intelligent, and disciplined. He takes everything seriously and is known for jumping to conclusions enthusiastically. As class representative, he is obsessed with organization and discipline, though he can be overbearing. He is humble, willing to admit mistakes, and values honor and fair play. Tenya deeply admires his older brother Tensei and works hard to uphold the Ingenium legacy and the reputation of the Ida Family.

    Quirk - Engine: Tenya's Quirk gives him car-like engines in his calves, granting incredible running speed and powerful kicks. He fuels his engines by drinking orange juice. His engines have multiple gears and require clear exhaust pipes to function properly. Through training, he developed ultimate moves like Recipro Burst, Recipro Extend, and Recipro Turbo, with the latter allowing enhanced speed for ten minutes. His Maximum Speed technique surpasses even Recipro Turbo, reaching speeds of Mach 3.

    Abilities: Tenya is recognized as one of the fastest students in Class 1-A and ranked second in academic performance. His fighting style combines high-speed movement with powerful kicks capable of crushing metal. He has demonstrated strong leadership skills, tactical intelligence, and the ability to remain calm during emergencies.

    Story Arc: After the Hero Killer Stain severely injured his brother Tensei, Tenya initially sought revenge but learned the error of his ways, choosing to become a true hero instead.

18. #18Tensei Ida (Ingenium)

    Keys: Turbo Hero, Ingenium, Big Ing, Tensei Ida

    Tensei Ida, also known as the Turbo Hero: Ingenium, is a Pro Hero and the older brother of Tenya Ida. He is a formidable hero who temporarily retired after being paralyzed during an encounter with the Hero Killer: Stain, becoming Stain's 24th crippled victim. Eight years after the Final War, Tensei rejoined his former agency as a sidekick using support items, now working under his younger brother who inherited the Ingenium mantle. Agency members call him "Big Ing" to differentiate the brothers.

    Appearance: Tensei resembles his younger brother with square features, short dark blue spiked hair, and arrow-shaped eyebrows. Unlike Tenya, he doesn't wear glasses. His Quirk manifests as gold engine exhausts protruding from his elbows rather than his calves.

    Personality: Tensei is far more laid-back and easy-going than his strict younger brother. He believes the most important heroic quality is speed in rescue operations, stating that people want to be saved quickly like lost children being found. He values teamwork and large groups where everyone serves a specific purpose. Unlike Tenya, he's lenient about Quirk usage laws and focuses on being "cool" rather than strictly rule-abiding. His hero philosophy centers on helping those who feel their world has been turned upside down.

    Quirk - Engine: Tensei possesses engines in his arms that release propulsion jets from his elbows, allowing him to shoot forward at turbo speed. He hovers slightly off the ground and relies on arm propulsion for movement. His engines are fueled by grapefruit juice. Unlike Tenya's geared system, Tensei can hit max speeds instantly but struggles with braking and turning, compensating with airbags in his hero costume. His ultimate moves include Recipro Burst (explosive speed burst that overheats engines) and Rocket Charge (enhanced acceleration that launches him airborne but stalls engines).

    Abilities: Before his injury, Tensei was a highly capable Pro Hero with incredible fortitude. He repeatedly faced the Bat Villain despite being outpaced, showing tactical intelligence by removing costume weight and setting blockades. He demonstrated strong leadership skills directing Team Idaten and calculating rescue timelines. Though eventually defeated by Stain, Tensei held his own against the infamous Hero Killer for some time, showcasing his formidable combat abilities and unwavering courage.

She is a cheerful, social girl with a pale, curvaceous build, ash blonde hair styled with fin-like side clumps, and small blue eyes with pointed teeth. Her aquatic-themed appearance includes turquoise fish earrings.

    Quirk: Telescopic - Tatami's Quirk allows her to retract her head, body, and limbs into themselves instantly, similar to a turtle. The retracting process is instantaneous, though un-retracting takes a few moments. Her ultimate moves include Rocket Punch and Rocket Dash, utilizing her retractable ability for combat mobility.

    Personality: Tatami is friendly and enjoys working with her classmates, though she can be fault-finding and isn't afraid to call out others' personality quirks. She follows trends and is somewhat of a "bandwagon" type, as demonstrated when she asked Shoto Todoroki for an autograph solely due to his Sports Festival celebrity status.

    During the Provisional Hero License Exam, Tatami participated in the traditional "Crushing of U.A." ambush alongside her Ketsubutsu classmates, particularly working with Yo Shindo, who she is in a relationship with. She successfully passed both phases of the exam and later participated in Hero Work-Studies. During the Dark Hero Arc, she assisted in evacuating civilians and witnessed Izuku Midoriya's rescue of Yo from Muscular. Following the Final War, where she helped corner Skeptic and provided reinforcements to Izuku against Tomura Shigaraki, Tatami graduated and became a Pro Hero alongside her former classmates.

    Appearance

    Tamaki is a tall young man with pale skin, messy dark indigo hair that sticks out behind his head, and long, pointy elf-like ears. He has thin, tired-looking eyes partially covered by his bangs. His shoulders are usually hunched, and he avoids eye contact. Eight years later, he has cut his hair much shorter.

    His hero costume consists of a scarlet hooded tunic with jaw-like spikes, white wrist armor, dark green pouches for carrying food, and a thin mask. He fights barefoot to maximize his Quirk's versatility.

    Personality

    Tamaki is extremely shy, anxious, and introverted, often facing walls to hide from others when nervous. Despite his powerful abilities, he suffers from low self-esteem and feels crushed by expectations. However, he demonstrates fierce resolve when protecting his friends, inspired greatly by Mirio Togata. He values hard work and the bonds between allies, refusing to let anyone undermine these connections.

    Quirk: Manifest

    Tamaki's Quirk allows him to manifest the physical characteristics of anything he's eaten. The manifestations are significantly stronger than normal and can be combined simultaneously (e.g., octopus tentacles reinforced with crab shells, chicken talons strengthened with octopus muscles). He must regularly consume foods to maintain access to their traits and carefully plans his diet for combat effectiveness. His favorite foods include takoyaki and clams for their offensive and defensive properties.

    Ultimate Moves

    • Vast Hybrid Chimera: Manifests multiple animal/food characteristics simultaneously
    • Kraken: Transforms arms into giant octopus tentacles
    • Centaur: Lower body becomes a horse with vine-whip arms holding fruit projectiles
    • Octopus Mirage: Uses octopus camouflage for stealth attacks
    • Scorpius Toxin: Manifests venomous scorpion tails
    • Plasma Cannon: Combined attack with Nejire using multiple manifestations

    Abilities

    Tamaki's combat skills far surpass most Pro Heroes. He single-handedly defeated three members of the Eight Bullets (Toya Setsuno, Yu Hojo, and Soramitsu Tabe) during the Shie Hassaikai Raid. His tactical intelligence allows him to adapt strategies mid-battle, exploit enemy weaknesses, and coordinate effectively with allies. During the Final War, he was selected for the elite team facing the enhanced Tomura Shigaraki.

    Background

    Tamaki has been friends with Mirio since grade school, when Mirio approached him and asked to be friends. This friendship became the foundation of Tamaki's growth, helping him overcome his anxiety enough to become one of U.A.'s top three students. He interned under Fat Gum, who became an important mentor figure.

21. #21Taishiro Toyomitsu (Fat Gum)

    Keys: BMI Hero, Fat Gum, Taishiro Toyomitsu

    Taishiro Toyomitsu, also known as the BMI Hero: Fat Gum, is currently the No. 11 Pro Hero in Japan. He operates primarily in the Kansai region and employs sidekicks including Suneater (Tamaki Amajiki), with Red Riot (Eijiro Kirishima) and Real Steel (Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu) serving as past interns.

    Appearance

    In his signature fat form, Taishiro is a massive, round man who towers over most adults. His hero costume features an orange, zippered hood with "FGM" initials (standing for Fat Gum), black pants, metallic boots, gloves, and a mask around his eyes. When he burns through his fat reserves, he reveals a highly muscular physique beneath, though he retains his impressive height.

    Personality

    Taishiro appears constantly hungry and eats frequently to maintain his fat reserves. He's friendly, playful, and carefree with civilians and fellow heroes, but becomes deadly serious when lives are at stake. He possesses strong work ethic and can recognize potential in aspiring heroes. Despite his jovial demeanor, he becomes impulsive and enraged when villains threaten innocent lives, showing deep care for those under his protection—evidenced by his emotional reaction when Eijiro was injured during the Shie Hassaikai raid.

    Abilities

    Quirk: Fat Absorption - Taishiro's Quirk allows anything to adhere to and sink into his body fat on contact. His fat stores kinetic energy from impacts, which he can convert into explosive offensive power by burning his fat reserves and reverting to his muscular form. This trade-off weakens his defensive capabilities but delivers devastating counterattacks powered by accumulated impact energy.

    Combat Prowess: As a top-ranked hero, Taishiro excels at restraint and subduing criminals quickly. He frequently serves as a human shield for allies, absorbing attacks that would incapacitate others. His tactical intelligence, honed through extensive police work, gives him deep knowledge of Japan's criminal underworld. During the battle against Kendo Rappa and Hekiji Tengai of the Eight Bullets, he endured multiple barrages of bullet-speed punches before unleashing a devastating energy-charged counterattack that defeated both villains.

    Ultimate Move: Fataxi - Uses his body to safely transport allies in or out of combat situations.

    Taishiro shares his hometown of Osaka's love for takoyaki and was previously ranked No. 58 Pro Hero eight years ago, showing significant career advancement. He was chosen to command forces against villain stragglers during the Final War's Operation Troy.

22. #22Snipe

    Keys: Snipe, cowboy hero, Homing

    Snipe is a Pro Hero and member of U.A. High School's teaching staff, serving as the homeroom teacher for the third-year Hero Course students. He has the appearance of a stereotypical Western cowboy, wearing a tan gas mask shaped like a horse's muzzle, a brown cowboy hat with an "S" emblem, a red cloak, and cowboy boots with spurs. His dark, shoulder-length dreadlocks are visible from behind.

    Quirk: Homing - Snipe's ability allows him to lock onto any target within 600 meters and make projectiles chase after them. However, he cannot control which part of the target his shots hit, and his attacks lack significant strength. Despite this limitation, he is considered Japan's second-greatest marksman after Lady Nagant, possessing exceptional natural aim even without his Quirk.

    Personality: Snipe is intelligent, levelheaded, and rational. As an experienced educator, he advocates for practical hero training, believing students need real combat experience against villains rather than just robots. He values trust among colleagues and expresses moral concerns about exploiting students as additional manpower. While typically calm and professional, he can be flustered in embarrassing situations and shows humility about his abilities, openly acknowledging Lady Nagant's superior marksmanship.

    Equipment: He wields modified guns and carries smoke grenades for tactical advantages, explaining his gas mask costume. His cowboy aesthetic extends to his mannerisms, including a Western accent in the English dub.

    Role: Snipe participated in defending U.A. during the U.S.J. Incident and served as an examiner during the First Term Final Exams, testing students Toru Hagakure and Mezo Shoji. He also took part in the Paranormal Liberation War's Hospital Raid.

23. #23Sorahiko Torino (Gran Torino)

    Keys: Jet Quirk, Sorahiko Torino, Gran Torino

    Gran Torino (Sorahiko Torino) is a retired Pro Hero and former U.A. High School homeroom teacher. Despite his extremely short, elderly appearance with heavy wrinkles and spiky grey hair, he is one of the most powerful heroes in history. He mentored both All Might (Toshinori Yagi) and later Izuku Midoriya in mastering One For All.

    Personality: Gran Torino initially appears senile, constantly forgetting names and acting confused. This is actually a façade—he's incredibly intelligent with sharp perception. As a mentor, he's brutally harsh but effective, traumatizing even All Might during training. He taught Izuku more about One For All in one week than All Might did in a year. Despite his rough methods, he genuinely cares for his students and praises them when deserved.

    Quirk - Jet: Sorahiko shoots air jets from holes in his boot soles, granting incredible speed and short-distance flight. He can bounce around environments faster than the eye can see, making him one of the fastest heroes alive. The air comes from his breathing, and he cannot fly unlimited distances.

    Abilities: Despite his age, Gran Torino possesses immense strength and durability. He defeated a Nomu with minimal help from Endeavor and knocked out multiple League of Villains members (Dabi, Spinner, Magne, Twice) instantly. He fought alongside All Might against All For One twice and helped arrest Kurogiri. During the Paranormal Liberation War, he fought Tomura Shigaraki but was critically injured, requiring hospitalization.

    Background: In his youth, Gran Torino was tall and handsome with a well-built physique. He was present during Nana Shimura's battle against All For One and became All Might's mentor after her death. He later came out of retirement to train Izuku and assist in investigating the League of Villains following the Kamino Incident.

24. #24Sirius

    Keys: Good Ear, Oki Mariner, Sirius

    Sirius is a Pro Hero working as a sidekick on the Oki Mariner Crew under Captain Selkie. She is a young woman with smart blue eyes and short, shoulder-length light blue hair swept to the right. Her hero costume consists of a sleeveless white sailor uniform with a dark blue collar, a short three-piece skirt, a loosely-tied red scarf, blue gloves with white striped wrist guards, thigh-high boots, and a flat hat. She wears large fin-shaped communication devices on her ears that aid her Quirk.

    Sirius is friendly, respectful of her captain, and selfless—willing to sacrifice herself rather than let villains escape. She possesses strong communication skills and can understand Morse code, which she uses to coordinate with Selkie during missions.

    Quirk: Good Ear - Sirius's Quirk allows her to hear high frequencies and quiet sounds that normal people cannot detect. This enhanced hearing enables her to communicate with teammates over long distances, particularly with Selkie when he uses his Spotted Seal Quirk to send coded messages. She enhances this ability with specialized fin-shaped earpieces.

    Equipment: Sirius carries a retractable steel baton hidden in her clothes for surprise attacks during combat engagements.

    She participated in hero internships during the Vs. Hero Killer Arc, where she worked with Tsuyu Asui, teaching her about the responsibilities of heroism. She later appeared during the Hero Work-Studies and the Final War Arc, continuing her work with the Oki Mariner Crew in various operations including battles against smugglers and the villain Innsmouth.

25. #25Shoto Todoroki

    Shoto Todoroki (轟焦凍, Todoroki Shōto), also known as the A.C. Hero: Shoto (エアコンヒーロー ショート), is one of the main characters of My Hero Academia. He is a former student of Class 1-A at U.A. High School who entered through official recommendations. He is the youngest son of Endeavor, the former No. 2 and No. 1 Pro Hero. Eight years after the Final War, Shoto has graduated and is the current No. 2 Pro Hero.

    Appearance: Shoto is a moderately tall, well-built young man with distinctive evenly split hair—white on his right side and crimson red on his left—due to his Quirk. He possesses heterochromia iridum with a turquoise left eye and brownish dark gray right eye. He has a large burn scar on the left side of his face from hairline to cheek. His hero costume consists of a dark blue heat-resistant jacket with a cooling/heating device, metal-plated tactical vest, white boots with spikes, and burgundy wrist guards that regulate body temperature.

    Personality: Initially cold and aloof due to his abusive upbringing, Shoto preferred isolation over socializing. After the U.A. Sports Festival, he became more sociable and kinder, gaining a sense of humor while retaining some aloofness. He struggles with social cues and can be dense with certain phrases. Shoto once had deep loathing for his fire abilities as they symbolized his father's wickedness, relying solely on ice until Izuku's encouragement helped him accept both halves as his own power. Despite his troubled past, he doesn't allow hatred to cloud his judgment and maintains strong heroic values from All Might.

    Quirk - Half-Cold Half-Hot: Shoto's Quirk grants him dual elemental control—ice generation from his right side and fire from his left. He can create massive ice constructs, freeze opponents, generate scorching flames, and use both for mobility. Overusing one element causes frostbite or heatstroke, negated by alternating between them. Advanced mastery allows him to combine fire and ice into "cold fire," granting heat immunity and enhanced offensive capabilities.

    Abilities: Recognized as one of Class 1-A's strongest students, Shoto earned 2nd place in both the Quirk Apprehension Test and U.A. Sports Festival. He possesses enhanced durability, stamina, agility, and keen intellect (5th in midterm scores). His ultimate moves include Heaven-Piercing Ice Wall, Flashfreeze Heatwave, Flashfire Fist techniques (Hell Spider, Jet Kindling), and Phosphor—a fusion technique using cold flames.

    Background: Shoto was born as the result of a Quirk Marriage arranged by Endeavor to create a hero who could surpass All Might. His childhood was marked by harsh training and witnessing his father's abuse of his mother Rei, who accidentally scarred Shoto with boiling water during a mental breakdown. This trauma led to Shoto's initial rejection of his fire powers. His match against Izuku at the Sports Festival became a turning point, helping him reclaim his left side as his own.

    Story Role: During the Paranormal Liberation War, Shoto discovered his eldest brother Toya survived and became the villain Dabi. In the Final War, Shoto mastered cold flames to match Dabi's superior blue fire, ultimately helping his family stop Toya's self-destruction. Eight years later, Shoto has become his own hero independent of his father's shadow, pursuing hobbies like bowl-making while maintaining his heroic duties.

26. #26Shota Aizawa (Eraser Head)

    Keys: Erasure, Shota Aizawa, Eraser Head

    Shota Aizawa, also known as Eraser Head, is a Pro Hero and homeroom teacher of U.A. High School's Class 1-A. He is a stern, reserved man with messy shoulder-length black hair, half-opened black eyes, and a perpetually fatigued appearance. He wears baggy black clothing with a utility belt and his signature wrap scarf that conceals bright yellow goggles.

    Quirk - Erasure: Shota can nullify another person's Quirk by looking at them. The effect persists briefly after breaking eye contact. However, Erasure deactivates when he blinks, and prolonged use causes dry eye. After injuries during the U.S.J. Incident and Paranormal Liberation War, he lost his right eye and now relies on one eye for his Quirk. Mutant-type Quirks are largely unaffected.

    Personality: Shota is primarily motivated by logic and has lofty expectations for his students. He is known for his high expulsion rate (though he re-enrolls students to teach them about failure), "rational deceptions" to push students beyond their limits, and apathetic demeanor—often napping in his sleeping bag. Despite his cold exterior, he genuinely cares for his students and will protect them at any cost. The death of his friend Oboro Shirakumo during their school years profoundly impacted him, driving his strict teaching philosophy to prevent needless deaths.

    Combat Abilities: Eraser Head excels in close-quarters combat using his Capturing Weapon (a cloth made from steel wire and carbon nanofibers) in conjunction with Erasure. He took six years to master the weapon. His fighting style involves nullifying opponents' Quirks and subduing them with his binding cloth. He possesses exceptional tactical intelligence, immense stamina, and pain tolerance—having continued fighting after severe injuries, including amputating his own leg to prevent Quirk destruction.

    Physical Condition: After the U.S.J. Incident, he bears a scar under his right eye and has reduced Erasure duration. Following the Paranormal Liberation War, he lost his right eye (covered by an eyepatch), gained a second scar, and uses a prosthetic right leg. Eight years after the Final War, he semi-retired from active hero work to focus on teaching, maintaining his strict but caring approach to mentoring the next generation of heroes.

27. #27Shuichi Iguchi (Spinner)

    Keys: Shuichi Iguchi, Spinner, Iguchi

    Shuichi Iguchi, also known as Spinner, is a recurring villain and member of the League of Villains who later became a lieutenant of the Paranormal Liberation Front. He has a reptilian appearance with bright green scales, a lizard-like face, and desaturated pinkish-purple hair.

    Quirk - Gecko: His original Quirk gives him a lizard-like appearance and allows him to stick to walls, though it provides limited combat utility. During the Final War, he received two additional Quirks from All For One: Body Bulk (which allows him to drastically increase his size and strength) and Scalemail (which covers him in blade-like scales for enhanced offense and defense). Using multiple Quirks caused severe mental deterioration and physical scarring.

    Personality: Spinner is deeply inspired by the Hero Killer Stain, copying his clothing style and ideology. Unlike other League members, he shows more moral awareness and questions whether their actions align with Stain's vision of reforming hero society. He faced discrimination throughout his life due to his mutant appearance, living as a recluse before joining the League. While initially following Stain's ideals, his loyalty shifted to Tomura Shigaraki, whom he considers his first true friend. He genuinely cares for his League companions and became an unintentional icon for the heteromorph liberation movement.

    Combat Style: Spinner relies on close-quarters combat using various bladed weapons, most notably his makeshift "Super Knife Knife Sword" - a massive blade constructed from many smaller weapons bound together. He demonstrates decent tactical intelligence and agility in battle. After receiving Body Bulk, he gained immense size (several stories tall) and strength, becoming far more dangerous but losing mental stability.

    Role: Spinner participated in major villain operations including the Forest Training Camp attack, the Paranormal Liberation War, and the Final War. After the Final War's conclusion, he survived and became an author, writing a book about Tomura Shigaraki and the League of Villains to preserve their legacy. He is one of only two surviving League members alongside Mr. Compress.

    Shihai is a tall young man with fluffy white hair, black eyes, and distinctive pitch-black skin caused by his Quirk. His hero costume consists of a simple high-collared black jumpsuit with light shoes and large silver wristbands.

    Personality

    Shihai is a sly, deceitful schemer who enjoys dark concepts and dramatic speech similar to Fumikage Tokoyami. He struggles to talk to girls and has a crush on Kinoko Komori, becoming nervous and stammering around her. He tends to think girls have crushes on him if they speak to him.

    Quirk: Black

    Shihai's Quirk allows him to merge his body into anything dark in color, whether naturally dark or shadowed. Once merged, he can move through the entire structure at high speeds while carrying others. With advanced training, he can possess and briefly control moving black entities, such as when he took control of Fumikage's Dark Shadow during the Joint Training Battle.

    Ultimate Move - Darkseek: Emerges from black substances to capture opponents in sneak attacks.

    Abilities

    Though not a close-quarters combatant, Shihai excels at espionage and stealth, making him Class 1-B's stealthiest student. He possesses exceptional tactical intelligence, as demonstrated during the Joint Training Battle when he devised strategies to counter Fumikage by exploiting their similar darkness-based Quirks and using Ground Gamma's industrial piping to mask his location.

    Relationships

    Shihai has a romantic interest in Kinoko Komori, standing jealously when she talks to other boys. The two eventually begin dating after becoming Pro Heroes. He shares similarities with Fumikage Tokoyami, including their love of darkness-themed concepts and dramatic speech patterns.

He is a young man with a muscular build who always wears a wooden helmet that conceals his face, though he has puffy red leaf-like hair underneath. His hero costume consists of a dark blue bodysuit with wooden accessories, including a belt, knee pads, and shoes, with roses hanging from his belt and wooden rings on his shoulders.

    Quirk: Arbor allows Shinji to enlarge and control his wooden body parts into strong tree branches, which are excellent for binding opponents. His signature ultimate move is Lacquered Chain Prison, where he shoots wood from his arms to surround and immobilize enemies. However, his wood-based Quirk is vulnerable to fire.

    Personality: Shinji is very serious and focused during hero work but becomes easily discouraged when someone steals his glory or credit. He is also quite emotional—when Edgeshot invited him to join The Lurkers, he cried in happiness for two hours. He had a difficult childhood that was later made into a popular documentary.

    Career: Shinji has earned recognition as a standout hero of the next generation, rising from No. 7 to No. 4 on the Hero Billboard Chart. He participated in major battles including the Kamino Incident, Paranormal Liberation War (Gunga Mountain Villa Raid), and the Final War.

His hero costume adapts traditional ninja attire, including a blue mask, red shinobi shozoku, and a signature red scarf.

    Quirk: Foldabody - Allows him to make his body and limbs extremely thin and long, transforming himself into a razor-sharp string faster than the speed of sound. He uses this ability to slip through tight spaces, move quickly, and pierce targets by folding himself into sharp shapes.

    Personality: Befitting a shinobi, Shinya is calm, focused, and maintains composure even in crisis situations. He is highly intelligent with strong analytical and strategic abilities. Most notably, he is extremely selfless—during the Final War, he used his ultimate technique Zenith to transform his entire body into medical sutures to save Katsuki Bakugo's life after his heart was stopped by Tomura Shigaraki, despite knowing it would cost him his own life.

    Ultimate Moves: Thousand Sheet Pierce (incapacitates enemies by cutting blood flow to the brain), Zenith (transforms body into medical sutures to repair damaged organs), Spiral Spear Hand, and Fishhook Snag.

    Current Status: After being severely injured during the Final War by overexerting his Quirk to save Bakugo, Shinya was reduced to a small thread-like form.

31. #31Shishido (Lion Hero)

While genuinely compassionate, she's not above teasing others in good humor.

    Keys: Lizardy, Setsuna Tokage, Class 1-B

    Setsuna Tokage, also known by her hero name Lizardy, is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School who was admitted through recommendations. Eight years after the Final War, she becomes the No. 22 Pro Hero.

    Appearance

    Setsuna is a young girl of average height with large, upturned dusky green eyes, long lower eyelashes, and notably long pointed teeth. Her dark moss green hair reaches just below her shoulders and grows wavier toward the ends. Her hero costume features a purple scaly bodysuit with matching mask, black knee-high boots, fingerless gloves with purple knuckle guards, and orange wrist-guards. After the Final War, she dyes her hair blonde and updates her costume to green tones.

    Personality

    Setsuna is chatty, confident, provocative, and talkative. Unlike many Class 1-B students, she bears no hatred toward Class 1-A. She's a wily and thoughtful leader with excellent aptitudes for cooperation and tactics. Her demeanor shifts between casual and severe depending on combat situations. However, she can underestimate opponents and struggles with improvisation when plans fail. Her classmates trust her completely due to her proven reliability and strong will.

    Quirk: Lizard Tail Splitter

    Setsuna's Quirk allows her to split her body into up to 50 pieces that can move freely and levitate through the air at high speeds. Each piece can regenerate if destroyed, though this is exhausting. Parts will stop moving if separated too long, but reattaching them before they go still resets their time limit. Her organic hero costume is made from her own cells, allowing it to regenerate alongside her body parts.

    Abilities

    As a recommended student, Setsuna is considered Class 1-B's most skilled and talented member. She excels at espionage and tracking, using separated body parts for multiple viewpoints. Her keen intellect and strategic mind make her an exceptional tactician who can devise multi-step branching strategies. She interned under the Magic Hero: Majestic (now deceased), improving her predictive skills and efficiency. Her main weakness is over-reliance on detailed planning, limiting her adaptability in fluid situations.

    Quirk - Gyrate: Sen's Quirk allows him to rotate any part of his body at high speed like a drill. This heavy rotation significantly enhances his hand-to-hand combat abilities, augmenting his physical strikes with devastating spinning force.

He demonstrated these abilities during the Joint Training Battle, forcing skilled martial artist Mashirao Ojiro onto the defensive.

    Rei Todoroki (née Himura) is the wife of Pro Hero Endeavor (Enji Todoroki) and mother to Toya (Dabi), Fuyumi, Natsuo, and Shoto Todoroki. She is a middle-aged woman with shoulder-length white hair and brown-gray eyes, bearing a facial scar similar to the one she accidentally gave Shoto.

    Quirk - Frost: Rei possesses a powerful ice-generation Quirk inherited from the Himura family bloodline. She can create and manipulate ice from her body, though prolonged use causes frostbite and dangerous drops in body temperature. Her Quirk was specifically sought by Enji for a Quirk Marriage to produce a child combining ice and fire abilities.

    Personality & History: In her youth, Rei was stoic and reserved, agreeing to marry Enji to help her family financially despite knowing it was a Quirk Marriage. She was a loving, caring mother who tried to protect her children from Enji's abusive training methods. The constant domestic abuse caused severe mental instability, culminating in her accidentally burning Shoto's face with boiling water when his left side reminded her of Enji. She immediately tried to heal him with her ice while apologizing hysterically.

    Following this incident, Rei was hospitalized in a psychiatric ward at Fujitani Hospital. After years of treatment away from Enji, she recovered her mental stability and kind nature. She reconciled with Shoto, who forgave her, and receives visits from her other children. Despite everything, Rei demonstrates remarkable strength and forgiveness, working alongside her family to address Toya's transformation into the villain Dabi.

    During the Final War, Rei risked her life using her Quirk to save both Enji and Toya from Dabi's self-destructive flames, sustaining severe burns across her body. She refuses to abandon either her husband or eldest son, showing her compassionate and determined character.

    Rikido Sato (砂藤力道), also known as the Sweets Hero: Sugarman, is a former student of Class 1-A at U.A. High School and currently works as a Pro Hero and Sidekick for Wash.

    Appearance

    Rikido is a tall, extremely muscular young man with a broad build. He has short brown hair spiked upward, tiny square-shaped eyes with small black pupils, bushy eyebrows, huge thick lips, and a notably large round nose. His hero costume consists of a yellow full-body suit with white gloves, boots, and a utility belt containing sugar. Eight years after graduation, he has grown taller and bulkier with a sleeker jawline and light stubble, and his costume has been updated without the full mask top.

    Quirk: Sugar Rush

    Rikido's Quirk allows him to increase his physical strength five-fold for three minutes by consuming 10 grams of sugar. Each additional 10 grams extends the duration by another three minutes. The drawback is that his cognitive functions gradually drop during use, making him sleepy afterward. His hero costume's utility belt stores sugar cubes and sweets for quick activation.

    Personality and Skills

    Rikido is talented at baking sweets, a skill developed due to his Quirk's sugar requirement. He hosts weekly "Sugar Time" sessions in the dorms, sharing his baked goods with classmates, and pairs them with Momo Yaoyorozu's tea for "gourmet nights." Despite his intimidating appearance, he is modest about his confectionery abilities. He trained under the No. 13 Pro Hero Shishido during his internship, improving his flurry of attacks and situational awareness.

    Combat Style

    As a straightforward fighter, Rikido relies on temporarily augmented physical strength from his Quirk to punch through obstacles and enemies. His ultimate moves include Sugar Rush (a flurry of enhanced punches) and Sugar Knuckle (a powerful straight punch that sends opponents flying).

    Quirk: Poltergeist - Reiko's Quirk allows her to telekinetically control nearby objects up to the weight of an average human.

During the Joint Training Battle, she demonstrated excellent coordination with classmates Yui Kodai and Nirengeki Shoda, whose Quirks enhanced her levitated objects' size and impact force.

    Personality: Reiko is quiet and emotionless, often displaying an odd posture where she keeps her elbows to her side with hands dangling, resembling depictions of undead creatures. She enjoys horror content, frequently reading scary stories online and hosting horror movie watch parties for her class.

    Appearance

    Pony is a short girl with equine features including a round face with a short horse-like muzzle, thick wavy blonde hair, large Prussian blue eyes, and a pair of tall lyre-shaped pale tan horns. She has rounded calves similar to a horse's, brown hooves instead of feet, and a short horse tail. Her hero costume is horse-themed, resembling a jockey uniform with an orange skin-tight outfit, fingerless gloves, belts, and boots with stirrups that allow others to ride her like a horse.

    Personality

    Pony is a timid, thoughtful, and diligent individual. Born and raised in America as a Japanese descendant, she has limited Japanese language skills and sometimes speaks in English when angry or surprised. She is somewhat naïve and innocent, having learned unkind phrases from Neito Monoma without understanding their meaning. Despite her friendly nature, she is determined and observant in combat, willing to draw out battles to avoid losing. Pony bonded with Manga Fukidashi over their shared love of anime and manga, and she hosts anime viewing parties for Class 1-B.

    Quirk: Horn Cannon

    Pony's Quirk gives her a pair of horns that she can launch as projectiles, with new ones growing back almost immediately. She can remotely control up to four horns simultaneously and use them for transportation by balancing on them mid-flight, similar to Hawks' feathers. Her horns are strong enough to carry other people and can pierce or pin down enemies.

44. #44Ochaco Uraraka

    Keys: Uravity, Zero Gravity, Ochaco Uraraka

    Ochaco Uraraka (麗日お茶子, Uraraka Ochako), also known as the Antigravity Hero: Uravity (無重力ヒーロー ウラビティ), is a main character in My Hero Academia. She is a graduate of Class 1-A at U.A. High School and currently ranks as the No. 24 Pro Hero, eight years after the Final War. In addition to hero work, she spearheads Quirk Counseling programs, visiting elementary schools across Japan.

    Appearance

    Ochaco is a short girl with a slender yet curvy figure, fair skin, and auburn bobbed hair. She has perpetual pink blush marks on her cheeks and large, round brown eyes with thick upper lashes. Her hairstyle features short bangs and two long strands framing her face. She has small, thick pads on her fingertips similar to animal paws, which she uses to activate her Quirk. As an adult, her face became more angular, her figure more mature and athletic, and her blush markings began fading.

    Personality

    Ochaco is warm, bubbly, and kind-hearted, often described as "the most laid-back girl" in her class. She is empathetic and friendly, quick to help those in need. Despite her cheerful demeanor, she can become intensely focused and intimidating during competitive situations. Coming from a poor household, Ochaco is frugal and money-conscious, having become a hero primarily to provide for her parents. She is brazenly honest about her financial motivations but also genuinely admires heroes who bring smiles to people's faces.

    Ochaco developed romantic feelings for Izuku Midoriya, finding him incredibly admirable for his strength and compassion. While she acknowledges these feelings, she prioritizes heroism and continues to grow independently. She occasionally shows a subtle jealous side when other girls interact closely with Izuku. Her empathy extends even to villains like Himiko Toga, recognizing their humanity despite their crimes.

    Quirk: Zero Gravity

    Ochaco's Quirk, Zero Gravity, allows her to nullify gravity's effects on solid targets by touching them with her fingertips, causing them to become weightless and float. She cancels the effect by pressing her fingertips together. Her Quirk is excellent for restraint and rescue operations. Initially, she had a weight limit of around three tons and would suffer nausea if exceeded or if she floated herself. Through training, she significantly reduced nausea and increased her limit.

    During the Final War against Himiko Toga, Ochaco's Quirk underwent an Awakening, allowing Zero Gravity's effects to spread among different targets touching each other without requiring her to touch them all individually. This Awakening removed her weight limit and enabled her to set down weightless targets more slowly without pressing her fingertips together.

    Abilities

    Ochaco is a formidable combatant who drastically improved throughout her time at U.A. She earned 3rd place in the U.A. Entrance Exam and proved capable of pressuring powerful opponents like Katsuki Bakugo. She trained under Pro Hero Gunhead, mastering Gunhead Martial Arts—a close-quarters combat style utilizing grappling, takedowns, and throws. Her tactical intelligence allows her to quickly deduce enemy weaknesses and exploit collateral damage by floating debris for surprise attacks.

    Her Ultimate Moves include:

    • Skill Release: Releases all floating objects simultaneously.
    • Meteor Shower: Floats massive amounts of rubble overhead, then releases it as a devastating rain.
    • Zero Satellites: Uses grappling hooks to slam floating debris at opponents.
    • Comet Home Run: Strikes weightless rubble with a weightless pillar like a bat.
    • Gravity Plus: Combines Gunhead Martial Arts with Zero Gravity to throw opponents.
    • Spacewalk: Uses grappling hooks to reel herself toward opponents while floating.

    Ochaco possesses enhanced strength (through strategic Quirk use), speed, durability, and stamina. During the Final War, despite being fatally stabbed by Himiko, she held out until the end through sheer willpower.

    Hero Costume

    Ochaco's hero costume is designed to minimize her Quirk's negative effects. It includes:

    • Helmet: Reduces semicircular canal stimulation to prevent dizziness.
    • Wrist gauntlets: Stimulate pressure points to suppress nausea; upgraded to include grappling hooks inspired by Blackwhip.
    • Neck piece: Stimulates pressure points to reduce headaches.
    • Boots: Feature shock-absorbing soles and reinforced springs; upgraded with thrusters at the heels for aerial propulsion.

    Story Role

    Ochaco played crucial roles throughout the series, including the U.S.J. Incident (temporarily restraining Kurogiri), the U.A. Sports Festival (impressive match against Bakugo), and the Shie Hassaikai Raid (part of Ryukyu Squad). During the Final War, she confronted Himiko Toga directly, ultimately reaching the villain emotionally. Despite Himiko's death after transfusing all her blood to save Ochaco's life, Ochaco was deeply affected but resolved to ensure no one like Himiko gets left behind again.

    Eight years later, Ochaco became a successful Pro Hero while pioneering expanded Quirk counseling programs. She eventually pursued a romantic relationship with Izuku after he confessed his mutual feelings.

45. #45Nemuri Kayama (Midnight)

    Keys: Midnight, Nemuri Kayama, R-Rated Hero

    Nemuri Kayama, also known as the R-Rated Hero: Midnight, was a Pro Hero and faculty member at U.A. High School who taught Modern Hero Art History. She died during the Paranormal Liberation War.

    Appearance

    Nemuri was a tall, curvaceous woman with sky blue eyes, long spiky dark purple hair reaching below her waist, and a small beauty mark below her left eye. Her hero costume resembled a dominatrix outfit: a breastless black leather leotard over a thin bodysuit, thigh-high stockings, burgundy utility belt, knee-boots, small red mask, handcuffs on each wrist, and she carried a flogger-style whip. The bodysuit was made of easily tearable material to facilitate her Quirk usage. Her original U.A. student costume was far more revealing, featuring only protective breast plates and undergarments covered by an unbuttoned trench coat—this scandalous design single-handedly led to the institution of hero costume regulations.

    Personality

    Nemuri was playful, flirtatious, and openly perverted with an unpredictable serious side. She had no shame acting sexually in front of students and admitted to being a sadist who enjoyed dominating and psychologically tormenting opponents. She was extremely sensitive about her age and got angry when called old. Despite her provocative persona, she was intelligent, perceptive, and genuinely cared for her students, believing in their potential to become great heroes. Off-duty, she displayed a caring, thoughtful, even motherly side—she helped raise Eri, teaching her art and reading bedtime stories. During the Paranormal Liberation War, she demonstrated true heroic bravery, fighting on the front lines and encouraging her students to make the right call even if it meant breaking the law.

    Abilities

    As a Pro Hero and U.A. teacher, Nemuri was a highly tactful combatant. Her Somnambulist Quirk allowed her to exude a sleep-inducing aroma from her body that put nearby people to sleep with a single breath—it worked better on males than females. She used her whips and fans strategically to spread the scent with accuracy, making her especially effective against close-range fighters without breathing protection. Her sadistic enjoyment of tormenting opponents could be exploited, as Minoru Mineta demonstrated during their exam by luring her into a trap.

    Death

    Nemuri died during the Paranormal Liberation War at the Gunga Mountain Villa Raid. In her final moments, she instructed Momo Yaoyorozu and the students to sedate Gigantomachia if force couldn't stop him, trusting them to make the right decision even if it broke the law.

46. #46Nejire Hado

    Keys: Nejire Hado, Wave Motion, Nejire Chan

    Quirk: Wave Motion - Nejire can convert her vitality into energy and release it as powerful spiral shockwaves from her hands and feet. While exceptionally strong, the energy travels in spirals making it somewhat slow. She uses this ability for offense, mobility (flight), and support. Her ultimate move Nejire Flood releases energy at maximum output (100) in a devastating downward spiral attack. Overusing her Quirk causes extreme exhaustion, requiring extensive stamina training.

    Appearance: A tall, attractive young woman with periwinkle blue hair reaching her knees, light royal blue eyes with distinctive white pupils, and a fair complexion. After being burned by Dabi during the Paranormal Liberation War, her hair was cut to shoulder length but has since grown back curlier. Her hero costume features a dark blue skin-tight bodysuit with mint green/white markings and turquoise accents.

    Personality: Naturally kind, talkative, and endlessly curious with a childlike enthusiasm. She asks many questions but often doesn't wait for answers. In middle school, her curiosity drove people away, causing her to become cold and distant until Tamaki and Mirio befriended her at U.A., helping her regain confidence. Despite her cheerful "airhead" demeanor, she is fierce, focused, and level-headed in battle, displaying strong judgment and determination.

    Combat Abilities: One of U.A.'s most powerful students, capable of rivaling Pro Heroes. She possesses enhanced stamina and durability, surviving direct hits from Dabi's flames and continuing to fight. During the Final War, she was selected for the assault team against the enhanced Tomura Shigaraki, holding him back alongside her Big 3 teammates. She demonstrated extraordinary Quirk control by using her waves to enhance Mirio's punches without causing harm.

    Background: Originally mentored by Ryukyu (No. 10 Pro Hero) during her work-study. Participated in major battles including the Shie Hassaikai Raid, Paranormal Liberation War, and Final War. Her friendship with Mirio and Tamaki transformed her from an isolated individual into a confident hero who values learning about others.

    Nezu (根津), also known as Mr. Principal, is a Pro Hero and the principal of U.A. High School. He is an extremely rare case of an animal who manifested a Quirk.

    Appearance

    Nezu is a small, stout creature who appears to be a chimera—a combination of a dog, mouse, and bear. He has a mouse-like head with circular black eyes, a large scar over his right eye, rectangular ears with pink insides, and an elongated muzzle. His fur is white, and he has dog-like paws with pink pads and a thin cat-like tail. He typically wears a white dress shirt, dark red tie, black double-breasted waistcoat, matching dress pants, and orange lace-up sneakers with thick soles.

    Personality

    Nezu is an eccentric, polite, and persistent educator who is self-aware of his odd appearance. He is dedicated to teaching and cares deeply for his students' safety and development. Despite his friendly demeanor, Nezu harbors a grudge from past abuse by humans, which surfaces during combat as a sadistic enjoyment of "toying" with humans. This dark side makes him appear slightly insane and unpredictable when provoked.

    Quirk: High Specs

    Nezu's Quirk, High Specs (ハイスペック), grants him intelligence that far surpasses that of humans. His intelligence stat is rated at S-tier (6/5), making him an exceptional strategist. This Quirk allows him to live freely like a normal person despite being an animal.

    Abilities

    • Enhanced Senses: As an animal, Nezu possesses above-average hearing and smell.
    • Exceptional Strategy: His superhuman intelligence allows him to execute complex plans rapidly, such as during the First Term Final Exam where he strategically destroyed the environment to force students into specific escape routes.
    • Security Planning: As principal, Nezu manages U.A.'s advanced security systems, including the U.A. Barrier and multiple underground shelter networks.
    • Vast Wealth: Nezu is extremely wealthy and personally funded U.A.'s defensive upgrades.

    Background

    Nezu was subjected to experiments and mistreatment by humans in the past, which left him with physical and psychological scars. This trauma shaped his complex personality and his dedication to protecting students from similar fates.

48. #48Neito Monoma

    Keys: Neito Monoma, Monoma, Phantom Thief

    Neito Monoma (物間寧人), also known as Phantom Thief (ファントムシーフ), is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School and later becomes the No. 10 Pro Hero.

    Appearance: A young man of average height with slick blond hair parted to the right, periwinkle blue eyes with white pupils, and a contemptuous expression. His hero costume is a black double-breasted tuxedo with long tails, three clocks on his belt to track his Quirk's time limit, and an upturned collar with a dotted tie. Eight years post-graduation, he styles his hair into two slick fringes and adds clock earrings to his costume.

    Personality: Neito has a complex personality that varies by context. He is particularly mocking, loud, and sarcastic toward Class 1-A, whom he envies for their attention following the U.S.J. Incident. Despite his provocative behavior—often earning him a knockout from Itsuka Kendo—he is actually kind, calm, and intelligent outside these confrontations. He suffers from an inferiority complex due to his Quirk's dependency on others, considering himself a "side character" compared to those with inherently heroic Quirks. However, he deliberately provokes Class 1-A to motivate his own classmates to excel. He is respected as one of Class 1-B's two leaders alongside Itsuka Kendo, demonstrating exceptional tactical and analytical skills despite poor academic performance in written exams.

    Quirk - Copy: Neito's Quirk allows him to duplicate and use another person's Quirk after physical contact. He can hold up to four Quirks simultaneously for ten minutes each, though he cannot use multiple Quirks at once and requires about 10 seconds to switch between them. He gains full access to copied Quirks but cannot effectively use those requiring previously stored resources (like Rewind) or those demanding exceptional physical conditioning (like One For All). His hero costume includes stopwatches to track time limits, though he uses three visible watches to deceive opponents about his actual capacity of four.

    Abilities: While lacking melee combat prowess, Neito compensates with agility, precision, intelligence, and proficient Quirk handling. He formulated Class 1-B's strategy during the U.A. Sports Festival and demonstrated impressive analytical skills by recognizing Ochaco's hidden strategy against Bakugo. During the Final War, he played an essential role by copying Kurogiri's Warp Gate and Aizawa's Erasure to contain Tomura Shigaraki, embracing his role as the "puppet master" and earning recognition with a statue erected in front of U.A. High School.

    Role: Class 1-B student, later No. 10 Pro Hero. One of Class 1-B's leaders alongside Itsuka Kendo, known for his rivalry with Class 1-A and strategic contributions during major battles.

49. #49Nirengeki Shoda

    Keys: Nirengeki Shoda, Mines, Twin Impact, Class 1-B

    Nirengeki Shoda, also known by his hero name Mines, is the vice class representative of Class 1-B at U.A. High School. He is a chubby young man of below-average height with short ice-blue hair, large wide eyes, and an apologetic demeanor. Eight years after the Final War, he has become a Pro Hero.

    Personality: Nirengeki is humble, refusing to take credit he hasn't earned—demonstrated when he withdrew from the U.A. Sports Festival finals after being brainwashed by Hitoshi Shinso. As Class 1-B's vice president, he is reliable and trusted by his classmates. He excels in teamwork, works well with others like Reiko Yanagi and Yui Kodai, and doesn't hold grudges. Unlike some classmates, he doesn't participate in the rivalry with Class 1-A and is described as his class's conscience.

    Quirk - Twin Impact: Nirengeki's Quirk allows him to strike a target and then remotely trigger a second impact at the point of contact with several times more force than the initial blow. He can exploit this for enhanced mobility (jumping higher, dashing faster) and to amplify both his own attacks and those of his allies. The stronger the base attack, the more potent the enhancement becomes.

    Abilities: A competent fighter who excels in one-on-one combat with good Quirk handling. He possesses impressive reaction time and tactical intelligence, having deduced optimal strategies during the Joint Training Battle. His ability to augment cooperation attacks makes him a pivotal support asset on any team. He interned under the No. 13 Pro Hero Shishido, improving his flurry attacks and situational awareness.

50. #50Natsuo Todoroki

    Keys: Natsuo, Todoroki, Natsuo Todoroki

    Natsuo Todoroki is the second son of pro hero Endeavor (Enji Todoroki) and Rei Todoroki. He is the older brother of Shoto Todoroki and the younger brother of Toya (Dabi) and Fuyumi Todoroki.

    Appearance

    Natsuo is a young man of above-average height with a well-built physique. He has distinctive white spiky hair with two short strands hanging down his forehead and gray eyes with long eyelashes. Following the Final War, he bears burn scars on his face from exposure to Dabi's flames. Eight years after the war, his scars have healed, and he has grown taller with a sharper jawline and light stubble.

    Personality

    Natsuo has an easy-going attitude but exhibits deep resentment toward his father for his abusive treatment of the family. He holds Endeavor accountable for the forced separation from Shoto during childhood, neglecting him and his siblings, Rei's hospitalization, and Toya's apparent death. Unlike other family members, Natsuo finds it extremely difficult to forgive Endeavor, stating he doesn't have the heart to do so despite acknowledging his father's attempts to change. He was horrified to learn his older brother Toya survived and became the villain Dabi. During the Final War, Natsuo demonstrated bravery by confronting Dabi alongside his mother and sister.

    Abilities

    Natsuo possesses a Frost Quirk similar to his mother's, allowing him to coat himself in ice and shoot it out. Though lacking formal combat training, he demonstrated sufficient control during the Final War to help contain Dabi's deadly explosion alongside Rei and Fuyumi, contributing to Shoto's ability to fully extinguish it. He was studying for a degree in medical welfare before the war.

    Role in Story

    Natsuo serves as a representation of the lasting damage caused by Endeavor's abuse. After the Final War, he moves away with his girlfriend to start his own family, choosing to distance himself from his father while respecting Enji's continued efforts at atonement. Notably, he is the only Todoroki sibling who says nothing to Toya in the aftermath, suggesting lingering resentment toward his older brother's villainous actions.
