!The Ennead
The group formed by Izuku Midoriya and the girls he's bonded with due to the Bonding Quirk contained within One for All.
[[folder:General]]
* AbilityMixing: [[spoiler:Upon gaining the eleven Quirks from All for One after Kamino, the girls are capable of mixing their respective Quirks with enhancements from the new ones.]]
** [[spoiler:Tsu combines Frog with Springlike Limbs and Super Regeneration. Melissa also has access to Springlike Limbs.]]
** [[spoiler:Mei integrates Zoom with Danger Sense, Search and Diagnosis.]]
** [[spoiler:Nejire uses a version of Survivor that doesn't depletes her stamina.]]
** [[spoiler:Toru can use Smokescreen and Smoke Manipulation.]]
** [[spoiler:Ochako, Momo and Yui have integrated Overhaul to their respective Quirks, and Yui can shrink living beings, even herself.]]
* BattleHarem: All of the Ennead are heroes-in-training capable of fighting on equal terms against some of Japan's worst villains.
* ChastityCouple: Of the Harem variety, no less. Despite all members of the Ennead being reasonably attractive and effectively adopting Eri, their relationship is a cuddly version of this. Their chasteness is a minor plot for Ibara, as it causes her to realize that her unease toward them isn’t due to the potentially lewd nature of the relationship but envy of their closeness.
* TheEmpath: A Level 1 bond lets Izuku and the girl detect each other's feelings, as well as their likely reaction to certain actions.
* FamedInStory: Their appearance during the Battle of Kamino made them well-known in the Hero society.
* InUniverseNickname: The Ennead, and after teleporting themselves live on TV during the Battle of Kamino, they become known as "The Bolts of Kamino".
* KeystoneArmy: The incredible powers the Ennead gains depend exclusively on Izuku's Quirk. [[spoiler:When Izuku's Quirk is temporarily disabled by a Quirk-erasing bullet, the girls' enhancements in turn vanish as well, returning when the effect finishes.]]
* MindHive: As each girl reaches Level 2 in the bond, they can speak telepathically with the Vestiges and the others in the Ennead at the same level.
* {{Polyamory}}: While initially it was a Harem, it eventually evolves into this, as the girls begin to date each other.
* SuperEmpowering:
** Due to Bonding, the members of the Ennead become more powerful as their bonds evolve.
*** At Level 2, everyone's physical abilities increase by 10% per existing Level 2 bond, as long as they are within ten meters to the power of the number of Level 2 bonds of Izuku. When Yui and Nejire reach the level, it means that everyone has a pretty much permanent 80% boost to their strength and dexterity.
*** At Level 3, the girls gain access to One for All's stockpile and an evolution of their Quirk based on the Quirk of the Vestige in charge of the bond, while Izuku gets an improvement based on the girl's Quirk.
*** At Level 4, Izuku and the girls can teleport to each other.
*** At Level 5, they will presumably be able to heal injuries that would have killed them.
** [[spoiler:After Izuku takes several of the Quirks All for One stole, they also get integrated into the Bond: everyone gets access to Quirk Understanding, Multitasking, and a combination of Quirks called Total Body Enhancement, while the girls have their Quirks evolve through combination with one or several of the Quirks.]]

!!Izuku Midoriya -- Kyuseishu

!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-A, Hero Course

The main protagonist of the story, the Ninth Torchbearer of One for All and All Might's successor. After beginning to hear the voices of the previous bearers at the back of his head, Izuku begins to delve into the power the Quirk grants him.

* AbnormalLimbRotationRange: [[spoiler:Due to his bond with Melissa reaching level 3, Izuku can copy her father's Bendy Fingers but on his whole body, including making his fingers and elbows bend the opposite direction and turning his head 270 degrees.]]
* TheAce: First he breaks All Might's record at the entrance exam with the highest score in both villain and rescue points, then he wins the Sports Festival and finally stands side by side against All for One during his final battle against All Might. By the time of the Kuraudo Island arc, all students from Class 1-A unanimosly agree that Izuku is the strongest student of their class, and the first year as whole.
* AdaptationalBadass: Due to having the previous users as {{spirit advisor}}s, Izuku figures out Full Cowl much sooner, causing him to break All Might's record score at the entrance exam. Plus there's whatever is going on with One For All that's caused it to hit the singularity ''much'' earlier than in canon that allowed it in the first place.
** Izuku also figures out a way to keep Full Cowl running all the time without its telltale signs. This allows him to get Danger Sense and Float early in the year, and to begin hitting Full Cowl 8% before the Sports Festival. By the Summer Training Camp arc, Izuku can use roughly 42%, something he couldn't do until after the Paranormal Liberation War Arc in canon.
** Thanks to Itsuka's suggestions, he also develops a more rounded fighting style than his initial All Might-derived "punch everything" style.
** He is also able to defeat Shouto in the Finals and managed to subdue Overhaul with Blackwhip in their first encounter, negating the need of the Raid.
** [[spoiler:When All for One tried stealing One for All in Ch 42, his plan quickly goes pear shaped and loses 34 Quirks to the actions of the Vestiges of the Ennead and the Torchbearers, 11 of which got absorbed into One For All, giving Izuku new tools to fight All For One with.]]
* AdaptationalNameChange: As Ochako learns of how painful being called Deku was for Izuku, she never tells him her own interpretation of the nickname, so he won't be called Deku as a hero. Instead, his Hero name is Kyuseishu, which means "savior", but also has a bit of word play based on him being the ninth holder of One For All.
* AllLovingHero: He wants to save everyone he can, the same as his hero All Might.
** Even though Bakugo bullied him for more than a decade, Izuku still asked that he be given a chance to join U.A.
** Even though she just attempted to kill him, he feels pity for Himiko Toga, because he knows a good part of what she is right now was caused by her being unable to use her Quirk.
** When he realizes Tomura Shigaraki was manipulated by All for One, he offers him the chance to peacefully give up.
** He keeps making overtures to Kota Izumi in spite of the latter's abrasiveness and pushing Eri's TraumaButton.
** When he gets Overhaul, he uses it to heal those who truly need it, whether they are heroes, civilians or villains: Magne, for example, is granted the female body she wanted but couldn't afford to pay for.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Years of self-study has granted him an almost intuitive ability to analyze Quirks and suggest ways its user can improve their skill. Tensei Iida, the Pro Hero Ingenium, reads Izuku's analysis of him and states he'd try to hire him for his agency if Izuku weren't training to become a Pro Hero himself.
** When Shinso asks 1-A if Izuku would be interested in making an analysis of him, Denki replies that Izuku already has five pages each on Shinso and Akira.
** When confronted by Overhaul, Izuku quickly deduced that Overhaul needed to touch something with an uncovered hand to use his Quirk. [[CurbStompBattle Cue Blackwhip immediately being used to leave the villain spreadeagled and restrained.]]
** At the I-Expo, Izuku meets Cathleen Bate and a comment by her reveals that Izuku ''almost'' figured out the details of her Quirk just by studying her fights. While he didn't quite get it, she does say he was closer than anyone else was.
* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler:The League of Villains captures him during summer camp.]]
* BadPowersGoodPeople:
** [[spoiler:Considering Overhaul's previous user was an unhinged Yakuza boss, it's safe to say that the Quirk is in far better hands now.]]
** [[spoiler: He gains Muscular's Muscle Auguementation before the connection between All for One and One for All is shut down by the end of th Nabu Island arc.]]
* BestFriend: Izuku and Ochako consider themselves each other's best friend.
* BirdsOfAFeather:
** He bonds with Mei due to their shared love for support items and how Pro Heroes use them.
** He connects with Momo over both being intelligent and analytical.
** He ends up bonding with Melissa due to their shared experiences as Quirkless people and their love of science.
** He becomes friends with Hitoshi due to their similar background as outcasts and victims of FantasticRacism.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: He's buff, capable of destroying an enemy in a fight, and more than able to back his words with actions. He's also quite sensitive, prone to crying, and gentle.
* ButNotTooBi: Izuku mentions that he is bisexual with preferences towards women. However, Izuku liking men never comes up anywhere else (save for a mention of being attracted to Bakugo when they were younger) and his entire BattleHarem is composed of girls.
* ChickMagnet: Without even planning it, he gets involved with eight girls.
* ClassRepresentative: He's voted in as 1-A's Class President. Unlike in canon, he does not relinquish the position to Tenya.
* CurbstompBattle: His team up with Momo is good enough that their classmates are glad it wasn't them and All Might makes a note not to team them up again so ''their opponents stand a chance''.
** Even though Todoroki trapped him in a glacier, Izuku gets out and rings him out.
** His use of Float allows him to win the Obstacle Race even after he goes back to smash the frozen Zero Pointers so they won't fall on the other students and then stop to open a way through the mine field for everyone.
** He manages to win most of his tournament fights without a problem, and even against Todoroki in the finals he could have easily won if he hadn't been trying to convince him to start using all of his power.
** Overhaul only got to start removing his gloves before Izuku figured out how his Quirk activated. The villain was promptly restrained and spreadeagled via Blackwhip.
** He blazes through the I-Expo Villain course in six-seconds.
** His rematch with Tigre goes this way, as he has gotten so much stronger since their first match that he manages to beat Tigre in ''two moves''.
* DareToBeBadass: Izuku's opening speech at the Sports Festival dares all of the competitors to show why villains should fear them. He later reveals that he wants ''all'' of the hero course students to become the next All Might.
* DidntSeeThatComing: [[spoiler:After giving Search back to Ragdoll, not only does Izuku still have Search, but she can also use the other sensory Quirks he possesses, namely Danger Sense, Diagnosis, Multitasking, and Quirk Understanding]].
* DisappearedDad: His father Hisashi has never featured in his life, having divorced his mother when he was very young. While he still supports them economically, he doesn't keep in touch.
* DontThinkFeel: This is Miruko's primary lesson when training Izuku, as she recognizes that Izuku can fight fairly well, but he tends to overthink things and end up distracted in the middle of his fights. She first tries to teach him this by [[TeachHimAnger needling him with insults]], which works, but ends up with her embedded in a wall when Izuku reaches his RageBreakingPoint. Izuku eventually finds a way to enter this state on command: ''his muttering''.
* TheDreaded: When Gentle Criminal and La Brava meet Izuku, they immediately recognize him and struggle not to shake in fear.
* DungeonBypass: Nana lampshades that Float completely negates all challenges present in the Sports Festival obstacle course.
* TheEmpath: Due to Bonding, an empathy Quirk getting mixed into the Stockpile Quirk that later became One for All, Izuku and Ochako can sense each other's emotions and understand a bit of each other's motivations after their bond forms. This later applies to Momo, Mei, Tsuyu, Toru, Melissa, Nejire, and Yui, who are also linked to each other.
* ExactWords: Izuku insists that he wouldn't become a Vigilante over some people standing Tsuyu up in the past, but only because "[[WrenchWhack a pipe wrench isn't a Quirk]]".
* ForgotTheirOwnBirthday: It isn't until Melissa wishes him a happy birthday that Izuku realizes that his birthday is the next day.
* FriendToAllChildren: He manages to establish a great rapport with Tsuyu's siblings when they meet after his date with Tsuyu. This is what triggers their bond's second level.
* GoneHorriblyWrong: [[spoiler:His attempt to appeal to Tomura Shigaraki's humanity and get him to peacefully surrender by [[IKnowYourTrueName calling him by his birth name of Tenko Shimura]] ends up reminding him of his father's abusive behavior and he goes even deeper into villainy.]]
* GoodIsNotSoft:
** Learning of Endeavor's actions towards his family has Izuku state that he won't kill the man. No, instead he will utterly destroy the man's reputation and career, forcing him to ''[[CruelMercy live]]'' with the consequences of his decisions and actions. [[VigilanteMan The Third]] [[InLoveWithYourCarnage approves of this course of action]].
** When he learns that people have stood Tsuyu up and called her weird, his first instinct is to ask for their names so he can find them and hit them with a pipe wrench.
* HarmfulHealing: [[spoiler:Gaining both Overhaul and Diagnosis allows him to [[HealingHands instantly identify and heal any medical issues a person has]], but is also extremely painful as he has to rip them apart on a molecular level to do so. After it melds into the power stockpile, that particular side effect is virtually removed, though Izuku idly wonders if Overhaul himself could also do harmless healing and just never pursued it.]]
* HasTwoMommies: On top of his mother Inko, he considers Nana his "ghost stepmom". Inko accepts and supports this decision.
* HealingFactor: [[spoiler:Gains the only surviving copy of Super Regeneration from All For One's disastrous attempt to steal One For All in the Forest Training Camp arc in Chapter 42, with the other two being deleted by the Vestiges of the Ennead and the Torchbearers.]]
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:After being hit with the fact that he ''can't'' save everyone when the only thing he can do for Tsubasa is granting him a MercyKill, he's left depressed.]]
* HonorBeforeReason: During the obstacle race, Izuku flies back to stop the frozen Zero Pointers from falling on anyone. Downplayed in that he can fly so fast he quickly retakes the lead.
* ICantBelieveAGirlLikeYouWouldNoticeMe: After ten years of being openly disparaged by most (if not all) of his classmates, he does not consider himself to be attractive. Fortunately, the girls are more than willing to point out that he is.
* JustToyingWithThem: To prove a point regarding Todoroki only using half his Quirk, Izuku fights him using only half of his own power. Not only does Izuku completely dominate the fight, he points out that he could have won several times before Todoroki finally used his fire.
* LogicalWeakness: At his core, Izuku is an analyst. As such, he tends to overthink during fights rather than simply react, which is part of why Miruko easily smacks him around during their spar.
* InnateNightVision: [[spoiler:One of the All for One Quirks that manages to reach out the Vestige Realm is called Darkvision and allows its user to see in the dark.]]
* MeaningfulName: Izuku's hero name, Ultimate Hero: Kyuseishu, is this in several ways.
** Kyuseishu means "Savior", denoting his intention to be one that saves people.
** With Ultimate, he marks his intention to be the world's greatest hero.
** Finally, Ultimate can be translated as "kyuukyoku", which allows him to {{Pun}} on him being the Ninth Torchbearer ("kyu" and "ku" being possible pronunciations of "nine" in Japanese) twice over.
* MemeticBadass: Izuku becomes one InUniverse after the Sports Festival, due to both his speech to Todoroki and how he seemingly fought Quirkless during part of their fight.
* MessyHair: A trait he keeps from canon. The girls eventually realize how fluffy it is, and love running their hands through it.
* {{Metaphorgotten}}: Izuku tries to come up with a metaphor for seeing Mei at a technology expo while on a date with her.
--> Watching Mei was like watching a shark go on a feeding frenzy, except she was feeding on other sharks who were also feeding on her, and that caused her to feed even more, [[LampshadeHanging and the analogy was getting away from him]].
* MeteorMove: Izuku's Grand Canyon Smash is the Flying Takedown variety. He uses Float to allow him to grab a flying enemy, then performs a midair piledriver to crash them into the ground headfirst and drag them, opening a trench until they hit a rock.
* MindlinkMates: While a Level 1 bond allows Izuku and his girls to emotionally read each other, the Level 2 bond allows him to establish true mental communication with the corresponding girl.
* MrExposition: [[spoiler:Gains Quirk Understanding from All For One's disastrous attempt to steal One For All in the Forest Training Camp arc in Chapter 42. The Quirk itself talks if any of the Ennead wonders about Izuku's Quirks, allowing them to learn their ins and outs, as well as things related to said Quirk. There is a limit to how much it knows, [[NoIndoorVoice it's loud]], and there is no cliff notes version of the information it provides, especially if two Quirks were mentioned, forcing the Torchbearers to seal its voice away so they can think.]]
* NiceGuy: Pretty much everyone he meets agrees that he is one.
* NoChallengeEqualsNoSatisfaction: [[spoiler:While he considers Quirk Understanding very useful, he also notes that it takes the fun out of figuring out the ins and outs of his Quirks on his own, though he does enjoy Quirk Understanding does have limits.]]
* NoSell: A rather odd variant. When Hitoshi uses his Quirk on him, at Izuku's request, [[spoiler:Yoichi immediately takes control of Izuku's body]], rendering him functionally immune to said Quirk.
* NomDeMom: Midoriya here is actually Inko's maiden name. Hisashi took Inko's name when they married due to not wanting anything to do with his family.
* NotSoAboveItAll: [[spoiler:After discovering that Nezu is a tiger quoll, he tells other people that he is a different species every time just [[ItAmusedMe for the lulz]].]]
* PapaWolf: In spite of his protests, he quickly picks up this role regarding Eri. When he recruits Monoma to learn more about Eri's Quirk, Izuku cheerfully warns him that, if he tries to hurt her in any way, shape or form... [[ImpliedDeathThreat he'd better have a written will]].
** Muscular learned this streak of Izuku's the hard way when he was tasked to retrieve Eri and tried to kill Kota on his own volition. What Muscular got was a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown with every Quirk in One For All, leaving him out for the count with his arms, legs, and jaw broken.
* TheParagon: He has a natural charisma that, in spite of his shyness, has manage to act as an inspiration and guide to his classmates.
** He advocates for Bakugo so he can still attend U.A. after All Might learns how big of a bully Bakugo is.
** He has a penchant for the DareToBeBadass RousingSpeech, inspiring not just his classmates but also all the other students to get them to push forward as best as they can.
** He convinces Todoroki to live up to his full potential by appealing to his desire to be a hero.
** His performance during the Sports Festival causes many people to begin sharing their troubles for having "useless" or "villainous" Quirks, and many of them feel inspired to pursue their dreams even if they don't have Quirks suited for them.
** He is willing to help villains when he realizes they are suffering from things outside their control. He attempts to persuade Shigaraki to surrender peacefully at the mall, and uses Overhaul to make Magne (physically) female after arresting her.
* PowerIncontinence: [[spoiler:After stealing eleven of All for One's Quirks, Izuku has trouble with them because, due to how they were technically passed via All for One to One for All, he has to deal with his body acclimatizing to them -- not helped by the fact that they have different acclimatization rates depending on type and that their presence keeps boosting the stockpiled power within One for All.]]
* ThePowerOfLove: As Vlad King summarizes, Izuku's Quirk is functionally the power of love from how it further empowers himself and his significant others, growing stronger as their love for each other does.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Since Hisashi is Endeavor's third cousin here, that makes him Shoto, Natsuo, Fuyumi and (unfortunately), Toya/Dabi's fourth cousin.]]
* SentientPhlebotinum: [[spoiler:Quirk Understanding develops true sentience after mixing with One for All and the other mental Quirks in it. This newfound sentience allows its advice to be more practical and delivered at more convenient times.]]
* SingleStrokeBattle: Essentially how his "fight" with Overhaul went, as Izuku bound the Yakuza by his hands and legs and kept him spread eagle with Blackwhip after Danger Sense helped him deduced his Quirk required physical contact.
* SketchySuccessor: While Izuku isn't this and is ultimately the best choice to carry One For All, Sir Nighteye accuses him of being an "inferior" choice until Izuku dressed him down.
* SmokeOut: Smokescreen, the Quirk he gets from En, allows him to fill the air around himself with smoke, granting him visual cover. [[spoiler:Reaching the Level 3 bond with Toru allows him to see through the smoke, rendering one of its disadvantages meaningless. Taking Smoke Manipulation from All for One allows him to manipulate the smoke and turn part of it solid.]]
* SuperEmpowering: During Ochako's fight with Bakugou, Izuku unlocks the second level of his bond with her and manages to empower Ochako for a few moments, allowing her to become fast enough that to her perception Bakugou's explosion seemed to move in slow motion, and she was able to move around him and throw him out of the ring so fast he couldn't comprehend what happened.
** It turns out to be a general trend, as the girls show a marked increase in their physical abilities while they are within a certain radius of Izuku. The increase is about an extra 10% for every Level 2 bond -- and the radius grows exponentially. At eight Level 2 bonds, the radius is a quarter of the way ''to the moon'', so for most practical purposes, the distance limit stops mattering at that point.
** At level three of Bond, the girls are allowed to draw on and use One For All, as well as amplifying/modifying their own Quirk and allowing them to use the Quirk of the Vestige they're bonded to Izuku through, while Izuku gains an increased capacity to the corresponding Quirk.
** At level four, the Ennead gain the ability to teleport to each other if they think hard enough that they want to be at each other's sides.
** At level five, the Bond will heal an otherwise fatal injury.
** [[spoiler:Momo's Level 3 bonding allows Izuku to use her Quirk, which manifests as him able to create Quirks with what's present in One For All, starting by using some of One for All's stockpiled power to create a Transformation Quirk he gives to Melissa, which she dubs Battery.]]
** [[spoiler:When he attempts to give Search back to Ragdoll, it... doesn't go as expected. For one, it melded with the stockpile fast enough that he still has it, having essentially given Ragdoll a copy. Second, it synergized so well with Quirk Understanding, Diagnosis, Danger Sense, and Multitasking that the copy of Search he gave her is essentially a gestalt Quirk consisting of those five Quirks.]]
** [[spoiler:After All Might officially retired following One For All burning out within him, Izuku gives him his own gestalt Quirk, later dubbed Superpower.]]
** [[spoiler:When Aoyama apologizes to Izuku for being an unwilling mole, Izuku makes the offer to use Overhaul to change Aoyama's body to more suit his Quirk. Aoyama accepts.]]
** [[spoiler:Downplayed for Aizawa, where Izuku modifies his body to give him a nictitating membrane so he can hydrate his eyes and not break eye contact with his Erased target.]]
** [[spoiler:The bond allows the girls to access some of the Quirks he took from All for One. Everyone gets Multitasking, Quirk Understanding, and a gestalt of Shock Absorption, Super Regeneration, Survivor and Blood Bank, and each of them gets one or more extra Quirks based on their own.]]
* SuperiorSuccessor: The very nature of One for All, which gains power as it is passed down from Bearer to Bearer, ensures Izuku will (once he takes a handle of its power) become THE Superior Successor to all the previous Bearers, even [[WorldsStrongestMan All Might]]. The sudden discovery that he can not only talk with the Vestiges, but also use their Quirks as his connection to One for All improves, is also something unique to him. [[spoiler:Due to Bonding's effect, he can also gain other Quirk-like powers from the girls he's bonded with. Usually, they enhance the Quirk from the Vestige that links them, but in Momo's case he gets a particular version of Creation that lets him transfer power and Quirks, while with Melissa he gets a powered-up version of her father's Bendy Fingers.]]
* SympathyForTheDevil:
** While he's still repulsed about the fact she's a SerialKiller who feels zero remorse, Izuku can't help but sympathize somewhat with Himiko over how she was treated due to her Quirk.
** When he realizes through Diagnosis how screwed up Shigaraki's health is, he itches to heal him with Overhaul even though he's already threatened to kill him several times.
** He turns Magne's body into female because he's seeing how her gender dysphoria is destroying her mentally.
* UnskilledButStrong: Izuku is incredibly overpowered, something both the author and the other characters acknowledge. But due to a combination of having little experience with any Quirk, possessing ComboPlatterPowers that don't always synergize, and not a lot of training, Izuku can easily be defeated by someone like Miruko. He's physically superior but her experience and skill allow her to treat him like a particularly durable punching bag. It's also why he ends up forfeiting his first match against Tigre, as Tigre had enough strength and skill to keep up with him.
* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: A variant. [[spoiler:After Bakugou is expelled, Izuku admits to his classmates that it wasn't satisfying.]]
* VictorGainsLosersPowers: [[spoiler:When All For One tries to take One For All at the Forest Training Camp arc in Chapter 42, the ancient supervillain ends up losing 34 Quirks to the actions of the Vestiges of the Ennead and the Torchbearers, 11 of them being absorbed into One For All. These 11 are Quirk Understanding, the sole survivor of the three Super Regeneration copies All for One had, Blood Bank, Survivor, Multitasking, Shock Absorption, Springlike Limbs, Smoke Manipulation, Diagnosis, [[AllForNothing Search and Overhaul]]. Izuku later returns Search to Ragdoll in the same way he created Melissa's Battery, but by the time he does it's left enough that he has a copy.]]
* YouRemindMeOfX: Aizawa is reminded of his friend Oboro Shirakumo after Izuku demonstrates Smoke Manipulation.

[[folder:Ochako Uraraka]]
!!Ochako Uraraka -- Uravity
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[GravityMaster Zero Gravity]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-A, Hero Course

An outgoing, cheerful, and optimistic girl Izuku first meets before U.A. Entrance Exams. She's the first girl Izuku forms an empathic bond with, the two quickly becoming friends as a result, as well as the first to level up her bond to level 2 and level 3. Her Quirk, Zero Gravity, allows her to nullify gravity's influence on anything she touches.
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** She gets to defeat Bakugo this time around.
** She reaches the tournament semifinals, losing against Todoroki -- and only because she went overboard with her Quirk and suffered the drawbacks before she could try to defeat him.
** Reaching Level 3 on her bond with Izuku lets her use One for All and Float and modifies her Quirk to the point she can add weight to anything she touches.
** After the Kamino Raid, she integrates Overhaul into her Quirk, which allows her to be a lot looser with the type of object she can affect -- such as, for example, a platform of cement she can rip and make fly to carry all of 1-A, Mei, and Melissa at the same time.
* AffectionateNickname: Instead of the canon Uraraka-san, Izuku calls her "Occhan".
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's cheerful, optimistic, and really nice... until the moment someone pushes her BerserkButton.
** When Bakugou angers her before their fight, she unleashes a ClusterFBomb on him and beats the hell out of him.
** Curious pisses her off so badly in Chapter 43 that she calls her a "purple-skinned [[PrecisionFStrike cu]][[CountryMatters nt]]" when the former tries to push the idea that the League is trying to recruit Izuku.
* GravityMaster: Her Quirk lets her render anything she touches unaffected by gravity. The Level 3 bond allows her to invert this and make things heavier.
** By the Nabu Island arc, she's developed "Jupiter Crush", which creates a point of high gravity that attracts everything that is floating and compacts it into a superdense object.
* LadySwearsALot: She was raised by construction workers, as she proves when she swears up a storm that's described as "creative and disturbing" in response to seeing the "casual eatery" Momo takes the class to. She then repeated it by dropping a ClusterFBomb that leaves ''Bakugo'' dumbfounded.
* RescueRomance: She bonds with Izuku after he saves her from the Zero Pointer (and then she saves him from hitting the ground).
* RocketBoots: Mei makes her a pair of these, which also contain gyroscopes. This allows her to propel and orient herself when using Zero Gravity on herself. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And they don't have impractical high-heels]].
* TopWife: While Izuku loves all the girls, it is obvious that Ochako is number 1.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: While all the Ennead girls are this towards Izuku, Ochako is the most prone for this. Everyone in the Ennead acknowledges this as a fact.
** She cheerfully fights Bakugo when she learns he bullied Izuku for years.
** After Izuku is [[spoiler:kidnapped by the League of Villains]], she's described to be seething so hard even All Might falls short.
** She swears to use Zero Gravity on Shigaraki and Toga so she can throw them out of Earth.
** She threatens to send Curious flying into the ionosphere after she makes leading questions about Izuku potentially making a FaceHeelTurn. [[spoiler:She settles for siccing Hisashi Midoriya's team at Curious and Shoowaysha Publishing, after the team's women thank the girls for opening the senior male Midoriya's eyes to his 5 female coworkers' feelings.]]
** When Toga temporarily reconnects to the Bond network by transforming into Izuku, she can sense how the Ennead feel about her. It's noted that all of the girls feel some degree of anger towards her for threatening Izuku, but that Ochako's is particularly intense.
** When Tooru learns about the MLA's smear campaign against Izuku she notes that, as angry as she is about it, she knows that Ochako will be even angrier.

[[folder:Mei Hatsume]]
!!Mei Hatsume -- Mei-Day
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SuperSenses Zoom]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-H, Support Course
A [[JustForPun quirky]] first-year Support student who is completely lacking in social graces, but always bursting with ideas to make real through her impressive engineering skills. She's the second girl Izuku bonds with, the third to reach level 2 and the second to reach level 3 in the bond, and quickly becomes his support technician (and that of his polycule).
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** Reaching Level 3 with the bond grants her the ability to use One for All and Danger Sense, and enables Zoom to go from telescopic to microscopic vision.
** After the Kamino Raid, she can incorporate Search, Diagnosis, and Quirk Understanding when looking for people.
* BerserkButton: A hypothetical situation of Izuku interfering with her inventions[[labelnote:*]]Izuku using Mei's inventions to show off for investors, but using his Quirk to make them look better[[/labelnote]] enrages her almost to the point of ''severing their bond'', until she remembers it's strictly a hypothetical question. {{Downplayed}} in that she feels happy that Izuku would actually go that far to help her succeed.
* BirdsOfAFeather: Izuku and her bond over their common interest in support items and how heroes use them.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When Izuku, Ochako, and Momo realize how much work Mei has been doing, they worriedly ask her how long it's been since she last ate or slept. Mei nonchalantly replies that she made a baby to do both things for her.
* GadgeteerGenius: She's really good with technology and engineering. She just needs someone to keep her in a short rein to ensure her inventions are safe.
* HiddenDepths: When Izuku tells the girls about One for All, she quickly believes him and states so openly. This causes her bond with Izuku to level up.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Izuku has to explain how her plan to show off her inventions using her match against Akira Fuki might seriously offend the other boy, as it'd make it look like he couldn't win on his own if she simply forfeited after making a fool out of him. Izuku compares it to if he made her inventions seem more impressive than they were when she tried to sell them to investors, the very idea of which completely enrages her.
* MadScientist: She's the closest to this of the cast. It takes her less than a day to fill her classroom with her inventions, and she also ticks many other marks: hyper-focusing, NoSocialSkills, ForgetsToEat, prone to causing explosions...
* NoSocialSkills: Unable to remember people's names (the only reason she remembers Izuku's and the girls' names is because of the bond), calls her inventions "her babies" without providing people with context, has NoSenseOfPersonalSpace...
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Her changed behavior caused her parents to worry, thinking she was making Izuku up or that he would hurt her emotionally.
* StrongerThanTheyLook: She's strong enough to BridalCarry Izuku.
* WhatIsThisFeeling: She initially mistook her romantic interest in Izuku as "a combination of friendship and side effects of sleep deprivation", and she asks if feeling like she wants Izuku to always look at her like he was doing after she declared she believed him is actual love.
* {{Workaholic}}: Mei spends much of her time on her work, to the point where Izuku and the polycule are the only ones capable of convincing her to focus on anything that doesn't involve said work, which includes eating, sleeping, and in general taking breaks.

[[folder:Momo Yaoyorozu]]
!!Momo Yaoyorozu -- Creati
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[ThePowerOfCreation Creation]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-A, Hero Course

A gentle, intelligent girl that comes from a very wealthy family, ready to become a hero and step out of the sheltered life she's lived so far. She becomes the third girl that bonds to Izuku and the second to level up, and soon proves herself a reliable friend who wants to help everyone. Her Quirk, Creation, allows her to use her natural fat reserves to create any object, as long as she knows its molecular composition and she holds its form in her mind.
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** Reaching Level 3 grants her access to One for All -- which, apart from the serious increase to her strength, also grants her a practically unlimited source of energy for her Creation, which essentially removes her Quirk's weakest point.
** After the Kamino Raid, she integrates Overhaul and Diagnosis into her Quirk, allowing her to repair inanimate objects and find any damage done to them.
* AdaptationalModesty: At Izuku's suggestion, she requests a new costume that covers her up (and is more protective than her first costume) and laced with her DNA so she does not have to take off her clothes just to create an object.
* AffectionateNickname: She gets nicknamed "Yaomomo" early in the year by Mina, which she sees as a sign of friendship.
* ArbitrarilyLargeBankAccount: While it's not stated exactly how wealthy her family is, their estate is large enough that it was apparently a legitimate concern the guest house Izuku would be staying at wouldn't be within a kilometer of her bedroom.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's very lady-like and gentle. When she learns about how horrible Izuku's middle school was, she asks for its name, cheering up when Izuku says Nezu is handling the matter since it means the school won't exist for much longer. She also takes great pleasure in acting as the bait to see if Mineta has changed, and tases him before dropping an intense combination of a stink bomb and pepper spray on him when it becomes clear that he has not repented.
** [[spoiler:She also nips the potential for a self-sacrificing fighting style that Izuku could have developed thanks to [[GoodThingYouCanHeal Super Regeneration]] after the Ennead got phantom pains through the link from Izuku throwing a OFA-boosted punch beyond his threshold of control by threatening to sell the figure Nighteye gave him.]]
* BigEater: Due to the requirements of her Quirk, she needs to eat a lot of food.
* BirdsOfAFeather: She connects with Izuku through their intelligence and ability to analyze.
* ClassRepresentative: She's 1-A's Vice-president.
* DidntThinkThisThrough:
** She based her first costume on Midnight's original costume -- the same one that prompted the Japanese Diet to pass a law limiting how much skin a hero could expose.
** She also wasn't thinking that the bookshelf part of her original costume could potentially sever her spinal cord with one bad fall.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: One of the things she likes about U.A. is that she's making friends.
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Manages to shoot a moving Nomu in the head with a crossbow bolt that has been tied to a steel cable.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Due to her sheltered and wealthy lifestyle, she does not realize that other people do not have the same outlook on life as hers (for example, her idea of a "casual eatery" is a high-class restaurant where most of her classmates would eat, at best, once a year, for a special occasion), but she's so adorable and earnest that none of the others can fault her.
* LonelyRichKid: Her life pre-U.A. seems to be quite sheltered due to her family's status.
* MsFanservice: She's possibly the most attractive female student in 1-A.
* OnlySaneWoman: Out of the polycule, Momo is the only one to voice concerns about their wilder ideas and antics.
* SilkHidingSteel: Gentle, beautiful, well-mannered, and joyful. As Mineta learns too late, that does not mean she can't be forceful when she needs to.
* TheSmartGirl: She's easily 1-A's smartest student, and her Quirk requires her to memorize and/or imagine the molecular structure of what she wants to make.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Izuku doing this to her after her loss to Shinso causes their bond to level up.

[[folder:Tsuyu Asui]]
!!Tsuyu Asui -- Froppy
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[AnimalThemedSuperbeing Frog]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-A, Hero Course

A cute, frog-like girl who always means what she says and is not afraid of making her intent clear. She becomes the fourth girl that bonds with Izuku, the first to outright declare she's got a crush on him and the fourth to level up their bond to levels 2 and 3. Her Quirk, Frog, grants her great agility, the ability to stick to walls, a long prehensile tongue, and other abilities.
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** Her Level 3 Bond makes her tongue twice as long and lets her cover it in Blackwhip to act like armor, lets her grow webbing between her fingers, toes, arms, and legs (which allows her to glide), grow [[WolverineClaws bone claws]] and make her mucus stronger and change its properties.
** After the Kamino Raid, she gains access to Springlike Limbs and [[HealingFactor Super Regeneration]].
* AnimalThemedSuperbeing: She's able to do anything a frog can.
* BigSisterInstinct: She's really protective of her little siblings. Izuku being FriendToAllChildren leads to their bond leveling up.
* BrutalHonesty: If she says something, she won't hold back from making things obvious. {{Justified}}, since her Quirk makes her [[TheStoic not able to facially emote well]], so she needs to say things out loud so people will understand her.
* GenderBender: [[spoiler:In chapter 56, she reveals that reaching a level 3 bond has allowed her to change between male and female at will, though it’s noted to being not very fast nor painless, and it doesn’t change the length of their hair]].
* MultipurposeTongue: Has a very long, prehensile tongue that only got longer once her bonding got to Level 3.
* PoisonousPerson: [[spoiler:After her bond reaches level 3, the toxicity of her poison mucus becomes stronger.]]
* RescueRomance: Begins to get a crush on Izuku, and bonds to him, after he saves her from Shigaraki's attempt to murder her, and then she saves him from a Nomu.
* TheStoic: Her mutant Quirk makes it hard for her to facially emote.
* TongueTrauma: During the Kamino fight where the Ennead crash their way into [[spoiler:via Level 4 Bonding teleport]], Gluttony bit her tongue, and the only reason she still has an intact tongue is thanks to her Blackwhip covering.
* VerbalTic: She tends to add a "ribbit" at odd points while she speaks. Even when she speaks through the bond.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Toru Hagakure]]
!!Toru Hagakure -- Prism
!!!'''Quirk:''' {{Invisibility}}
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-A, Hero Course

Cheerful and full of energy, Toru could easily pass as the typical happy girl if it weren't for the fact that she's invisible due to her Quirk, "Invisibility" -- all students see of her is her floating clothes. She becomes the fifth girl to bond with Izuku, doing so after she begins to crush on him because of his help in getting her a proper hero costume.
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** After realizing Aoyama's light rays refract if going through her, she manages to develop a new move mid-fight to bend the next ray so it hits him instead.
** During her internship, she learns how to refract light in such a way she actually can become visible. It takes a lot of concentration, though, so she can only be visible for a short time.
** Reaching Level 3 in her bond to Izuku lets her choose who can see her and who can't, and can make nearby people and anything she touches invisible too.
** After the Kamino Raid, she can now manipulate her invisibility fields.
* AdaptationalNameChange: Her hero name is Prism instead of her canon Invisible Girl.
* BeautifulAllAlong: [[spoiler:When her real appearance is revealed at the end of Chapter 23, Izuku and Ochako were utterly shocked by how stunning she is.]]
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Begins to crush on Izuku (and triggers their bond) after he ensures she can get a hero costume that can protect her.
* BirdsOfAFeather: Quickly becomes friends with Mina and Setsuna.
* GenkiGirl: She's always cheerful and chipper. Izuku considers this one of her strongest points, stating it makes her one of the prettiest people he's ever met.
* InvisibleStreaker: Her first hero uniform was ''just'' a pair of gloves and shoes. When he learns this, Izuku is aghast, because he believed she was using a specialized uniform, and insists on getting her to the Support Department so that she can be fitted with something appropriate.
* ManOfKryptonite: Her invisibility makes her this to people who need to target a person to use their Quirks, [[spoiler:which she proves by pummeling Chronostasis during the Kamino Raid, as the villain needs to see his target to hit them and also needs to stay still to do that]].
* SleepsInTheNude: Izuku has the hardest time finding Toru in the cuddle pile he wakes up in due to her lack of clothes.
* YouCanSeeMe: [[spoiler:When Toru leveled up to a stage 3 bond, she can choose who can see her, though when it leveled up, she was also naked with Izuku who can suddenly see her au natural.]]

[[folder:Melissa Shield]]
!!Melissa Shield -- Shieldmaiden
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[{{Unsorcerer}} Quirkless]] [[spoiler:-> Battery]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 3-H, Support Course

The daughter of All Might's first sidekick, David Shield, and a scientist in her own right. Thanks to her father's support, she is a rising star in the scientific community and I-Island. Becomes the sixth girl to bond with Izuku after he expresses the wish of becoming friends with her.
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** Gaining a Quirk and joining U.A. makes her far more formidable in a fight than in canon.
** She gets Springlike Limbs after the Kamino Raid, but can use any of the other Quirks Izuku got by concentrating.
* AscendedExtra: Her only role is in ''Anime/MyHeroAcademiaTwoHeroes'', but here she is a member of Izuku's BattleHarem, and transferred to U.A. after Hosu.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: She quickly becomes the person responsible for keeping Mei's explosions in check after arriving to U.A., proving to be capable enough to instantly correct one of Mei's designs to make it safe.
* CommonalityConnection: One of the reasons she connects with Izuku is because he was Quirkless. It's also why All Might is the Vestige that manages their bond.
* GrowingMusclesSequence: [[spoiler:Using Battery causes her to become much more muscular, rather like her HonoraryUncle All-Might]].
* NotSoAboveItAll: Melissa usually has the job of keeping Mei in check. When the topic of making a giant Super Sentai robot comes up, she says that making one would be too costly in resources -- it would be simpler to just build power armor and have Yui use her Quirk to enlarge it.
* TheSmartGirl: She's a scientist and engineer, and growing as such thanks to living in I-Island.
* SuperEmpowering: By reaching Level 2 with her bond with Izuku, she gains a boost to her physical abilities. [[spoiler:Izuku reaching Level 3 with his bond with Momo allows him to create a Quirk that he bestows to Melissa, giving her her own enhancement Quirk]].
* TeamNormal: She's the only Quirkless member of Izuku's BattleHarem. [[spoiler:At least until Izuku gives her a Quirk in chapter 33.]]

[[folder:Nejire Hadou]]
!!Nejire Hadou -- Nejire-Chan
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[CastFromStamina Wave]] [[HandBlast Motion]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 3-A, Hero Course

A third-year heroics student Izuku meets in the aftermath of his encounter with Overhaul. She becomes the seventh girl Izuku bonds with when Izuku shows that he is as curious about stuff as she is.
----
* AmicableExes: With Yuyu Haya. As Nejire explains it, Yuyu wanted to stay exclusive, but Nejire being poly put a damper on it.
* ConstantlyCurious: She has a child-like sense of curiosity that pushes her to fire a lot of questions before the other person can reply. This ends up becoming one of the reasons why she bonds with Izuku, because not only he can reply to her questions, but he also fires just as many questions back in the same way.
* FlyingFirepower: She could already use her Quirk to fly and shoot energy blasts, but [[spoiler:her bond reaching Level 3]] not only massively increases the power and speed of her Wave Motion, it also allows her to functionally ignore its CastFromStamina status.
* TheGlomp: She jumps to hug Izuku when she finds out about the bonds.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Her inquisitive nature causes Nejire to fire off some apparently very rude questions to Tsuyu's family, though the Bond causes her to realize what she's doing and she quickly apologizes.
* MotorMouth: She can fire off questions very fast due to her curious nature. She might, in fact, be the only person that can do this faster than Izuku.
* PerpetualMotionMonster: {{Downplayed}}. Nejire still needs to eat and drink, but after [[spoiler:her bond reaches Level 3]], not only can she use her Quirk indefinitely, she can also [[spoiler:convert her version of One For All into stamina]], meaning she never grows tired. Getting Survivor after the Kamino Raid ensures her energy drains even slower.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Yui Kodai]]
!!Yui Kodai -- Rule
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[{{Sizeshifter}} Size]]
!!!'''U.A. Class:''' 1-A, Hero Course

A quiet and stony-faced girl. Her Quirk, "Size", allows her to change the size of any non-living object she touches. She becomes the eighth and last girl to bond to Izuku, doing so after the internships when she learns about the polycule.
----
* AdaptationalBadass:
** Reaching Level 3 in her bond with Izuku lets her permanently change an object's size or tie them to a person's size (which she uses to make a pair of boots for Mt. Lady), while the connection with One for All allows her to fire energy blasts or make things explode by feeding energy to them.
** After the Kamino Raid, she gets the Total Body Enhancement package, as well as a modification to her power (based on Overhaul) that lets her change the size of people - including herself.
* EmotionlessGirl: She's very stoic and rarely displays emotions. Unlike people (like Tsuyu) whose Quirks prevent them from doing that, Yui is just that way.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Her Quirk allows her to change the size of an object she has touched.
** During the Heroes vs Villains, she pretty much secures the win by shrinking the bomb and putting it into her pocket (forcing the heroes to attempt to capture her and Pony) and then making it harder for the heroes to move around by enlarging obstacles.
** At the USJ, she combines it with Ochako's Zero Gravity, causing an avalanche that becomes the second most destructive attack of the day, only behind [[WorldsStrongestMan All Might]]'s punches.
** She combines it with a slingshot, allowing her to fire small projectiles and increase their size mid-flight to bolster their power.
* HenshinHero: Her post-Kamino hero costume changes into armor by saying "Henshin".
* HiddenDepths:
** Despite being the most stoic and quietest member of 1-A, she's very chatty when texting [[spoiler:and an outright MotorMouth through her telepathic link to the polycule]].
** She's also as much of a geek as Izuku, only her love is for pre-Quirk fictional American and Japanese heroes. She mentions being inspired by ''[[Franchise/UltraSeries Ultraman]]'' for her hero costume, which pulls inspiration from ''Series/UltraSeven''.
* IDontWantToRuinOurFriendship: She does admit to Kyoka and Ibara that she's interested in Izuku, but she hasn't acted because, as she puts it, "he and Ochako are basically married", [[{{Irony}} unaware that they're in a polyamorous relationship]]. The moment she does learn about it, though, she takes her chance and bonds with him.
* MotorMouth: [[spoiler:It turns out that while she might be TheQuietOne outwardly, she's a ''very'' intense and fast speaker in her mind, something Izuku becomes aware of when his bond with her upgrades to Level 2.]]
* NightmareFetishist: {{Downplayed}}. Unlike most people, who think Izuku's MotorMouth mumbling is creepy, Yui is really interested in it.
* NotSoAboveItAll:
** When she was working with Momo to make Izuku's present (an action figure set of him, the girls, Class 1-A and the teachers and family) she also got a bunch of figures of Shigaraki, the Nomus, Overhaul, Bakugo, and Mineta -- just so she can make scenes of the latter getting beaten by Izuku and the girls.
** She's ''very'' interested in getting a Super Sentai robot, particularly after her Level 3 bond lets her fire energy blasts, and she asks for a sword just so she can call it [[PunnyName TsuRuleGi]].
* NotSoStoic: When Melissa suggests making Yui a set of PowerArmor that she could use her Quirk on to grow into a giant robot, her mouth splits into a wide smile and her eyes glitter with utter joy at the thought.
* {{Otaku}}: Yui is a massive {{Tokusatsu}} fan, and it shows. During Hikage's segment of ''Kyuseishu'', she ends up getting interested in ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' when she learns how much [[Series/SpiderManJapan Toei's Spider-Man]] influenced the genre years afterwards.
* TheQuietOne: She does not speak much. [[{{Downplayed}} She is quite the intense writer when texting, though]].
* SizeShifter: After the Kamino Raid, she can use her Quirk to change the size of living objects, including herself.
* TheStoic: She doesn't express emotions through her face.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tomato with mozzarella and balsamic vinaigrette.

!U.A. High School
!!Class 1-A
[[folder:In General]]
* HonoraryUncle: The students who are not part of the Ennead are this to Eri.
* ImprobablyFemaleCast: Lampshaded. Izuku is surprised that over two-thirds of the class are girls. He later learns it was {{Justified}} by the fact the teachers were protecting them from [[ExtremeLibido Mineta]] by keeping them in separate classes.
* TrueCompanions: Everyone in Class 1-A become fast friends. This is shown in how the narration refers to everyone in 1-A by their given names (even if many of them still call each other by their family names), unlike [[LastNameBasis Class]] [[TeethClenchedTeamwork 1-B]].

!!Ibara Shiozaki -- Liana
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[PlantHair Vines]]

A pious, devout Christian girl. Her Quirk, Vines, turns her hair into long, thorny brambles she can extend and control at her own will.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: Her hero name is Liana instead of Vine. It's still thematically the same, as a liana is a woody vine.
* BadassPacifist: Her use of her Quirk involves restraining people with it, rather than attacking.
* GreenEyedMonster: {{Downplayed}}. While she initially thought her dislike of the polycule created by Izuku was because of her religious beliefs, she realizes during the test that she's envious of the relationship. This pushes her to ask for advice and eventually approach Tenya.
* GreenThumb: Her hair is literally a plant, one that she can grow at will.
* NiceGirl: She's a gentle girl that is willing to help her classmates deal with their problems -- such as helping Tenya find a way to deal with his feelings after his loss to Shinso.
* LadyOfWar: She's graceful and serene in her actions.
* ThePowerOfTheSun: Her hair absorbs solar energy from the sun to grow, due to it being a plant.
* ShipTease: She has a bit of this with Tenya.
* TokenReligiousTeammate: She's the only character whose beliefs are stated.

!!Setsuna Tokage -- Lizardy
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[DetachmentCombat Lizard Tail Splitter]]

Talkative, cunning, and brassy, Setsuna enrolled into U.A. through recommendations, and loves to mess around with her friends and classmates. Her Quirk, Lizard Tail Splitter, lets her split her body into multiple pieces that remain under her control, and that can regenerate if they are destroyed.
----
* AnimalThemedSuperbeing: Her power is based on lizards' ability to detach their tails as a defense mechanism, but taken up a notch.
* BirdsOfAFeather: Quickly becomes friends with fellow {{Genki Girl}}s Mina and Tooru.
* DetachmentCombat: She can split her body into up to 50 different pieces and make them move or fly around at will.
* LoopholeAbuse: She figures out early in the final exam that sending only a small part of her body through the exit won't win the exam and her entire body has to be through to win. So she [[ExactWords lets Thirteen destroy the rest of her body, and regenerates out of the parts that have passed]].
* NotQuiteFlight: Has the capacity to hover in the air if most of her parts are away from her body.
* PostVictoryCollapse: Her strategy to pass the final exam forces her to regenerate most of her body, leaving her so exhausted she pretty much passes out as soon as she finishes.
* TheSmartGirl: Like Momo, she joined U.A. through recommendations, and she's number 4 out of the class.

[[folder:Itsuka Kendo]]
!!Itsuka Kendo -- Battle Fist
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[GiantHandsOfDoom Big Fist]]

A friendly tomboyish girl with great knowledge of martial arts. Her Quirk, "Big Fist", allows her to increase the size of her hands, with their strength growing exponentially the bigger they get.
----
* AdaptationalSexuality: While canon remains silent on it, here she's implied to be lesbian or at least bi, since she and Kyoka have a shared crush on Momo.
** Confirmed to be bisexual in Chapter 49.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: She uses her knowledge of martial arts to tell Izuku he should expand his fighting style beyond his All Might-based "Punch Everything". Ironically, given her Quirk, she tells him to start using his legs.
* BestFriend: To Kyoka. Both bonded over their crush on Momo and love for rock.
* GiantHandsOfDoom: She can make her hands grow, with their strength growing with them as well.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Best shown during the School Festival. She on full beauty pageant garb while absolutely shredding at the drums.
* MythologyGag: She karate-chops Kamakiri when he makes obnoxious comments about Fumikage and Shishida's overlycomplicated speaking patterns.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: When enlarging her hands, she gets the strength to hold them.
* StrongAndSkilled: Not only she has a Quirk that gives her super strenght, but she is also a skilled martial artist.
* TriangRelations: A Type 7 forms between her Denki, Kyoka: Denki and Itsuka are both attracted to Kyoka, but not to each other.

[[folder:Tenya Iida]]
!!Tenya Iida -- Ingenium
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SuperSpeed Engine]]

A straight-laced, earnest young man who comes from a wealthy family of heroes. His Quirk, "Engine", takes the form of engine-like tubes on his calves, giving him incredible speed and kicking strength.
----
* ArmorIsUseless: His hero costume covers him in armor but doesn't help against Stain's knives. Justified in that said armor is designed to reduce drag and cool his legs, comparing it to a race car chassis rather than plate armor.
* BigBrotherWorship: Admires his big brother, the Pro Hero Ingenium, and hopes to become a great hero like him. {{Deconstructed}}, because this makes him emulate his brother when he should try to develop as a hero of his own, and when Ingenium gets crippled by Stain it causes him to become irrational in his attempt to seek revenge.
* BizarreHumanBiology: His Quirk takes the form of an organic combustion engine in his calves. That's powered by orange juice. And removing the muffler pipes (while painful) can help it grow more powerful.
* EntertaininglyWrong: Tenya figures out a lesson Gran Torino was trying to teach him from the old hero stating that the "bullet train is only the fastest method if your destination is along the route and nothing happens to the tracks". While Tenya takes this as a lesson that his mental state is too rigid and he can't reach any "destination" that's not along his normal track of thinking, Gran Torino insists that not everything he says is a lesson. Though if Iida learns from it, that's good enough for him.
* ExtremityExtremist: He mostly fights with his legs, taking advantage of his engines' boosting. Izuku actually asks him for suggestions when seeking to expand his fighting style.
* ShipTease: Admits to being interested in Shiozaki. Ends up taking her out on a date while at I-Island.
* ShutUpHannibal: Tenya calls out Stain's BlackAndWhiteInsanity this way, though it doesn't take.
-->'''Stain:''' The word 'hero' has been corrupted by filth like him. The allure of fame and fortune has tainted the pure altruism that should be the only motivation for any true Hero. Only men like All Might, who stand above such petty motivations, can be worthy of the title.\\
'''Tenya:''' How has Native 'corrupted' the title?! How did my brother?!\\
'''Stain:''' Your brother has a decent record of saving people, hence why I allowed him to live. However, he was tainted by materialism. Sponsorship deals and commercial appearances that detract from the goal As for this one? He doesn't even bother unless it's a high-profile Villain. One who chases the limelight to the exclusion of all else. Not to mention that his entire gimmick is cultural appropriation.\\
'''Tenya:''' My brother employs sixty-five sidekicks! People who he relies on to save others! Those deals were to keep his employees cared for! And Native is the son of diplomats for the League of Indigenous Nations! He's half-Ainu and half-Ojibwe! He seeks the limelight to inspire his people and to combat prejudices! Not to mention that All Might has sponsorship deals and tons of merchandise!
* ThreeAmigos: He becomes friends with Izuku and Ochako. Going by his brother Tensei, he speaks of them a lot at home.
* YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame: He says as much verbatim when Stain insists he's "worthy" due to only seeking to save Native rather than fight Stain.

A serious and reserved young man with a bird-like appearance and a penchant for dramatic statements. His Quirk, "Dark Shadow", manifests as a shadowy monster that inhabits his body and comes out to fight on his behalf, its power depends on the intensity of light: the weaker the light, the more powerful Dark Shadow is but the harder it is for Tokoyami to control it.
----
* BirdsOfAFeather:
** Hits it off with Reiko Yanagi due to their shared love of the dark and edgy. Veers into ShipTease after the USJ.
** He also becomes friendly with Kuroiro, as he is similarly Chuuni.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "Revelry in the dark".
* {{Chuunibyou}}: He loves to make dramatic statements and uses his gothic appearance to make it more obvious. Ironically, he does have actual powers that can be truly dangerous.
* TheDividual: The very male Tokoyami and the female ID-ing Dark Shadow are considered two separate entities, thanks to the latter being fully sentient.
* NonHumanHead: Not only does Tokoyami have an avian-like head complete with bill, he has a full set of retractable teeth in said bill.
* TwiceShy: With Reiko Yanagi. He didn't tell her of his feelings because [[ICantBelieveAGuyLikeYouWouldNoticeMe he felt he was lucky that she would actually spend time with him]]. Resolved after one of Eri's comments prompts them to fess up.

* RatedMForManly: He's obsessed with the concept of "manliness".

!!Mina Ashido -- Venus
!!!'''Quirk:''' {{Acid|Attack}}

An emotional and excitable girl with a strange alien-like appearance. Her Quirk, "Acid", allows her to produce a corrosive liquid through her skin. She can manipulate its pH and viscosity, but excreting too much can damage her skin.
----

!!Pony Tsunotori -- Rocketti
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[HornAttack Horn Cannon]]

A sweet-natured girl of American origin who transfers to Japan so she can attend U.A. Her Quirk, "Horn Cannon", gives her horse-like legs and a pair of horns on her head, the latter of which she can shoot as projectiles (regrowing almost immediately) that she can control telekinetically.
----
* ButNotTooForeign: She's half-American and half-Japanese.
* CovertPervert: When she remarks on hopefully scoring a date with "the Mexican hunk" [[OriginalCharacter Tigre]], Kyoka cautiously brings up that jaguars eat horses.
--> '''Pony:''' ''(coy grinning)'' If I'm lucky.
* FastballSpecial: Her Quirk lets her do this. During the USJ, she used it to allow Mina to rain her acid over several villains.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's ''puny'' at 5'1", but she can easily lift Ochako with a hug.
* TokenMinority: She's the only foreign student in Class 1-A, although unlike Rin, it's downplayed given that she's of Japanese descent.

!!Koji Koda -- Anima
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SpeaksFluentAnimal Anivoice]]

A quiet boy with a strange rock-like appearance. His Quirk, "Anivoice", lets him speak with all kinds of animals and persuade them to do things for him.
----
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: [[spoiler:His Quirk Awakening happens during the Kuraudo Island Arc, several months before it happens in canon.]]
* BerserkButton: People hurting animals really anger him. [[spoiler:Menagerie stating his complete lack of care for the animals in Kuraudo Island pisses him off so much that (a) [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness he drops an]] AtomicFBomb, and (b) he has his Quirk Awakening.]]
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Speaking with animals may not seem like a strong power... until you realize he can call in large quantities of dangerous creatures from '''any''' branch of the animal kingdom to help him. [[spoiler:After his Quirk Awakening, he can do this telepathically, granting him a greater range and strength.]]
* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Koji has a foot and an inch lead on Kinoko.
* TheQuietOne: He barely speaks. According to him, when he was young, he could barely control his Quirk and ended up calling all the vermin in the building to his home, so he barely speaks to avoid this happening again.
* ShipTease: With Kinoko.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: His Quirk lets him speak with animals and get them to help him.
* WillfullyWeak: He induced a fear of bugs in himself because he didn't want to be seen as villainous for using his Quirk to control bugs. Once he got over that, he can summons massive swarms of insects with ease.

[[folder:Reiko Yanagi]]
!!Reiko Yanagi -- Shinigami
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[MindOverMatter Poltergeist]]

A creepy, verbose girl with a penchant for dramatic statements. Her Quirk, "Poltergeist", allows her to control nearby objects up to the weight of a normal human.
----
* BirdsOfAFeather: She becomes friends with Fumikage, due to their shared love for the dark and edgy. Veers into ShipTease in the aftermath of the USJ incident, and into an actual relationship during the I-Island visit.
* MindOverMatter: Her Quirk lets her telekinetically control objects that weigh as much as a regular human's body weight.
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: She has an overly verbose, pedantic way of speaking.
* TwiceShy: With Fumikage Tokoyami. She didn't tell him of her feelings because [[ICantBelieveAGuyLikeYouWouldNoticeMe she considers herself unattractive and uninteresting]]. Resolved after one of Eri's comments prompts them to fess up.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Denki Kaminari]]
!!Denki Kaminari -- Chargebolt
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[ShockAndAwe Electrification]]

Dimwitted, feisty, and a bit perverted, Kaminari does still have his head in the right place. His Quirk, "Electrification", lets him discharge electricity from his body, but if he goes over his natural limit, it will short-circuit his own brain, leaving him a giggling idiot.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: He gets to knock out one of the Nomus at the USJ by shocking it through the steel cable Momo has created and shot at it.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: When Kaminari was sent to a specialist to determine how his electricity wasn't frying his brain, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia.
* ChivalrousPervert: He flirts with all of his female classmates, but never goes too far and takes his failures in stride. When he sees the hole in the wall, he tells the other boys, and while he is tempted, he agrees that the teachers should be warned so it can be fixed. And unlike canon, Denki actually doesn't like Mineta and finds his perversion to be repulsive.
* DeathOrGloryAttack: He can unleash an incredibly powerful electrical shock that will ruin the day of whoever gets hit -- but it leaves him a defenseless giggling moron.
* DumbassHasAPoint: When Cesar scoffs at him for filming the fight with Menagerie instead of helping, Denki points out that everybody else was already piling on the villain before Koji called in every animal in several miles around to beat the guy, and going in throwing lightning would have been dangerous for everyone else.
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** He admits to being a bit of a pervert, but he agrees with the other boys over the issue of the hole in the locker room's wall after giving a thought to it.
** He also finds Mineta's perversion to be repulsive and is glad he got expelled after he groped Momo.
** When he asks the other boys which girls they would like to date, he makes it clear he isn't trying to have them rank the girls' attractiveness and that he doesn't want to hurt anyone by flirting with the wrong person.
* LIsForDyslexia: After Kyoka brings up the possibility of him having a learning disability, he goes to Hound Dog to check and it turns out he has dyslexia, explaining why he does poorly, academically speaking, and yet can be clever and insightful in other areas.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: Kaminari's brain is wired differently than the norm, which makes him mostly immune to the damage his [[ShockAndAwe Quirk]] does to him -- the worst he suffers is his "shocked stupid" state. This, however, causes him to manifest symptoms of dyslexia and ADHD.
* ShipTease: Admits to being interested in Kyoka.
* ShockAndAwe: He naturally produces a lot of electricity that he can discharge at will.
* SideBet: He makes them sometimes. Usually wins them.
* SmarterThanYouLook: From the way he acts, you wouldn't expect him to be that smart, and canonically, he is one of the worst academically performing students, but when the boys are discussing why all the girls are put in one class, Denki is the one to realize the staff was trying to protect them from Mineta before Izuku confirms it for them.
** When he makes a surprisingly good one-liner about Monoma [[PsychologicalProjection projecting]] his arrogance on 1-A ("Guy's projecting so hard he could work in a movie theater"), Kyoka {{lampshades}} this trope.
** As shown above, it is likely most of his struggles could be caused by dyslexia.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Kyoka Jiro]]
!!Kyoka Jiro -- Heartjack
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[MakeSomeNoise Earphone Jack]]

Aloof and sarcastic, Kyoka is a music lover who is not one to let others fool with her. Her Quirk, "Earphone Jack", takes the form of elongated earlobes that end in jack plugs, and which she can extend and plug into objects to either catch faint sounds or channel the sound of her heartbeat into powerful vibrations.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: Based on one of Kaminari's suggestions, she goes with "Heartjack" instead of "Earphone Jack".
* AdaptationalSexuality: While canon remains silent on it, here Kyoka leans towards AmbiguouslyBi.
** Confirmed as bisexual in chapter 49.
* BizarreHumanBiology: Her body has actual earphone jacks in her ears, which she can plug into music players to listen to music.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Has shades of this when she notices Pixie-Bob making eyes at Denki.
* DeadpanSnarker: She has this attitude down pat.
* DopeSlap: She uses her jacks on Kaminari when he makes dumb comments.
* HaremSeeker: {{Downplayed}}. She asks both Denki and Itsuka if they're willing to date her at the same time.
* MakeSomeNoise: Her main offensive ability is to increase the sound of her heartbeat and transmit it through her jacks.
* MundaneUtility: She can hook her jacks to listen to music and connect to other audio devices -- such as a directional microphone.
* OddFriendship: She's friends with Momo, the two being incredibly diametric in interests.
* OpenMouthInsertFoot: She's very embarrassed when a joke about Kaminari having a learning disability (because of how good his one-liners are despite his poor grades) results in the boy genuinely wondering if maybe he does and asking how he'd find out.
* SensorCharacter: She can use her Quirk to listen for incoming enemies. It also allows her to listen through a wall.

[[folder:Kinoko Komori]]
!!Kinoko Komori -- Shemage
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[FesteringFungus Mushroom]]

A silly looking and eccentric girl who wants to become an idol hero. Her Quirk, "Mushroom", allows her to emit spores that can quickly grow mushrooms on any surface, range, and speed depending on humidity.
----
* AHandfulForAnEye: During her final exam, she throws a handful of sand into Aizawa's eyes to render him unable to use his Quirk.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Her Quirk seems quite strange and lacking in actual power. ''Seems'' being the keyword: she only needs a pair of water sprays (or not even that) to turn any battlefield into a death trap.
** She single-handedly wins the Heroes vs Villains fight by filling the entire building with shroom spores, which drain Shiozaki and Ochako as they grow before they get anywhere close to her and Toru.
** At the USJ, she falls in the Downpour Zone. The zone's high humidity and winds lets her spread her spores so far that nearly all the villains quickly fall victim to her.
** She [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomps]] Monoma in the interclass joint exercise by growing a shroom in his throat.
** Her mushrooms end up becoming a natural counter to Pixie-bob's golems, as they drain them until they are just dust.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Koji has a foot and an inch lead on Kinoko.
* KillerRabbit: She looks cute, but underestimate her at your own peril. There's a reason why Class 1-B fears her.
* LethalHarmlessPowers: Being able to grow mushrooms doesn't look like much -- until you grow them on people's skins (draining their stamina in the process) or ''in their throats''.
* ShipTease: With Koji.
* SlasherSmile: Unleashes one on Pixie-bob when she dares to make eyes at Koji.
* VerbalTic: She likes to make mushroom-based {{Pun}}s when she speaks.
[[/folder]]

!!Class 1-B
[[folder:In General]]
* ChromosomeCasting: Justified. They are all boys due to the presence of [[HormoneAddledTeenager Mineta]], whom the staff has uncovered evidence of being a sexual predator, which led to them putting all the girls in the other class.
* {{Foil}}: They are the foil to 1-A. Whereas 1-A quickly becomes FireForgedFriends capable of working together with good synergy under the leadership of [[TheParagon Izuku]], 1-B suffers from TeethClenchedTeamwork borne out of the clashing of too many egos (particularly [[TheGadfly Monoma]] and [[{{Jerkass}} Bakugo]]) with no TheHeart to tie them together.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Teamwork, camaraderie, and class unity are all poor due primarily to Bakugou's toxicity. [[spoiler:Bakugo's and Mineta's expulsion, and their replacement with Shinso and Fuki, begins to undo this troubling situation.]]

[[folder:Neito Monoma]]
!!Neito Monoma -- Phantom Thief
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[PowerCopying Copy]][[labelnote:*]] [[spoiler:[[PowerParasite All for One(5/8)]], [[AllYourPowersCombined One for All]] (WeatherManipulation, [[AntiMagic Erasure]], [[MindLikeMates Bonding]]), [[BlowYouAway Air]] [[BarrierWarrior Wall]], [[EnergyWeapon Bullet Laser]], [[SummonMagic Hydra]], [[SuperSenses Scanning]], [[HealingHands Cell Activation (A+O)]], [[MasterOfIlluion Hologram]]]]

A condescending, abrasive blond student who envies Class 1-A's popularity and seeks to make his class surpass them. His Quirk, "Copy", lets him copy a number of Quirks from someone else and use them for five minutes.
----
* AccidentalTruth: [[spoiler:He accidentally finds out about One for All and its history when he high-fives Izuku during their fight with Nine.]]
* AdaptationalBadass:
** During his fight with Izuku at the Sports Festival, he can use multiple Quirks at the same time, instead of just one at a time like in canon.
** [[spoiler:Taken up to eleven during the Nabu Island arc, when after Nine attempts to steal his Quirk, Neito turns the tables on the villain and permanantly copies all of his Quirks. His evolved version of Copy also allows him to copy nine other quirks for one hour, in addition to the six ones he already possess.]]
* ArcHero: He is Izuku's main ally and partner during his fight against Nine during the Nabu Island arc.
* BeneathTheMask: Behind all of his arrogant and condenscending personality, lies a young man with a serious case of HeroicSelfDeprecation, as evidenced by his thoughts before he jumps in to save Izuku from Nine.
--> "And that made it clear. He knew how it was. Izuku was important. He wasn’t. He was expendable."
* ContrivedCoincidence: He has blood type A, [[spoiler:the same type that Nine's stolen Cell Activation can use without suffering from backlash]].
%%** Not so contrived given that really is his canon blood type.
* CurbStompCushion: While he never manages to actually land a hit on Izuku, he does manage to hold him off for more than five minutes (although mostly because Izuku didn't know what would happen if Monoma tried to use One for All).
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** In spite of his desire for his class to one-up the other class, even Monoma is disgusted with Bakugou after learning Bakugo bullied Izuku.
** When Ojiro makes a comment about Monoma being upset that "1-A has a mascot" (Eri), Monoma insists he'd have to be a complete monster to insult Eri-chan.
** He's just as horrified as everyone else when Shoto reveals how toxic the Todoroki household is and the depths of Endeavor's behavior, and he's noticeably concerned and asks Shoto if he's okay when Shoto expresses his plans to intern under his father to learn to control his flames.
* FirstNameBasis: With Izuku, after their fight against Nine.
* GoOutWithASmile: Subverted. He is not killed by Nine, but as the villain attempts to steal his Quirk, his reaction is give his signature GrinOfAudacity to Izuku.
* HeelRealization: Hearing Principatus complain about Izuku's "arrogance" in the exact same terms he normally uses causes him to realize how much of a jerk he is.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Becomes one by the end of the Nabu Island arc. [[spoiler:With his own version of Bonding, Neito is now capable of connecting with eight other people he feels attraction for, much like Izuku.]]
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: The core behind his antagonism towards 1-A is because his Quirk is useless by itself, and he was derided by his pre-U.A. classmates over it.
* IrrationalHatred: Hates Class 1-A just because they have become famous (for reasons wildly out of their control). [[spoiler:Finally shakes it off during the Nabu Island Arc.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's a first-grade {{Jerkass}}, but in his own way it's obvious he wants his classmates to succeed along with him and refuses to insult Eri-chan, claiming that doing so would make him a complete monster.
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** He does have a point in stating that he and his classmates need to stand out during the Sports Festival, since it's the best way to catch the attention of the Heroes and get a good internship.
** He calls Bakugo "delusional and uncooperative" when he realizes the latter's InsaneTrollLogic regarding Izuku is unassailable.
* LaserGuidedKarma: A positive version. [[spoiler:When he jumps in to keep Nine from trying to take One for All from Izuku, the interaction between Copy and Nine's All for One ends with him permanently copying all the Quirks Nine has stolen.]]
* ManOfKryptonite: He's this to people whose Quirks require touching their targets. If he isn't instantly knocked out, he can copy them and turn them on their original owners. He tests this against Siphon during the Training Camp attack and holds him off for long enough until Nejire blasts the villain away. [[spoiler:He does this to Nine as he attempts to use All for One, causing Copy to merge with it and giving Monoma a permanent copy of all the Quirks Nine has.]]
* MindLinkMates: [[spoiler:After copying Bonding, he gains its ability to create an empathic bond with someone he has affection for through their Quirks. He bonds with Aoyama through Bullet Laser.]]
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: Monoma is the only first-year student that Eri hasn't dubbed an HonoraryUncle solely because of his IrrationalHatred for 1-A. Just because he's nice to her doesn't mean she's not paying attention. [[spoiler:When he apologizes to Izuku in the aftermath of the fight with Nine, Eri finally calls him "Uncle Neito", causing him to drop TearsOfJoy.]]
* OhCrap: After his copied Quirks run out in their match, he tries to copy Izuku's, only to realize it's a blank and hear Aizawa mention it's a stockpiling Quirk that took a decade to manifest (and, of course, not taking into account that One for All has been accumulating energy for ''over a century'' already).
-->'''Monoma:''' Oh. [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Errors have been made.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: The fact that he didn't make any kind of mean or arrogant comment to Class 1-A during their time on Nabu Island does not go unnoticed by anyone. Banjo even thinks that Neito was replaced by Toga at some point. Of course, this is due none of them being aware of his HeelRealization.
* PsychologicalProjection: Played with. Kaminari indicates he may be projecting his arrogance on 1-A through his pre-tournament boasting, but Setsuna and Kyoka reply he may just be trying to psyche himself up for his fight against [[TheAce Izuku]].
* TakingTheBullet: A non-lethal example. As Nine attempts to steal One for All, Neito pushes Izuku out of the way and is taken by the villain.
* TearsOfJoy: [[spoiler:He sheds tears while using Scanning to see the Ennead's connection with One for All, seeing it as something beautiful.]]
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:Permanently copies Nine's Quirks, with the All for One copy merging with Monoma's Quirk.]]
* TookALevelInKindness: Realizing how much of a jerk to 1-A, Neito tries to make amends for his poor attitude by trying to be as helpful as possible towards them. Later, Weaponized. When he copies Akira's Pep Talk, his genuine praise towards the 1-A students causes the Quirk's effect to double down, something that surprises Izuku.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Made the mistake of underestimating [[LethalHarmlessPowers Kinoko]]. He is quickly defeated.

[[folder:Shoto Todoroki]]
!!Shoto Todoroki -- Shoto
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[AnIcePerson Half-Cold]] [[PlayingWithFire Half-Hot]]

The son of Endeavor, Japan's long-time Number Two Hero. His Quirk, "Half-Cold Half-Hot", allows him to emit ice from the right side of his body and fire from the left side of his body, although for personal reasons he never uses the latter.
----
* AdaptationalSexuality: Apart from some ShipTease with Yaoyorozu, canon remains silent about Todoroki's orientation. Here, he is asexual.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter:
** He's this to Bakugo by being stronger, smarter, and in spite of Todoroki's own social ineptness, even on this, he comes out ahead of Bakugou by being polite enough to learn his classmates' names.
** Izuku becomes this to him by quickly defeating him during the interclass joint exercise, even after he was trapped in a glacier.
* BrokenAce: He's 1-B's most powerful student, [[SacrificedBasicSkillForAwesomeTraining but this comes at the cost of a normal childhood]], as Endeavor put him through TrainingFromHell since he was four, leaving him with NoSocialSkills.
* ChickMagnet: During the Cultural Festival, he gets enough papers with the phone numbers and email addresses of other girls that he has two large handfuls by the end of it.
* CommonalityConnection: Zigzagged. Due to thinking Izuku is All Might's biological son, he ''thinks'' they have "being children of famous Pro-Heroes" in common. What they ''actually'' end up bonding over after Izuku clarifies his relationship with All Might is both of them spending most of their childhoods at the mercy and abuse of a tormentor with a fiery Quirk that everybody else praised as a hero.
* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: When 1-B sees the TrainingFromHell 1-A is undergoing under the Wild, Wild Pussycats, they are mostly terrified. Shoto says it isn't that bad.
* DareToBeBadass: He becomes the target of one by Izuku, challenging him to use his full power so he can become one of society's best protectors and pillars.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: He begins to become Izuku's friend after their fight at the Sports Festival's tournament. This is the first half of why he is now on FirstNameBasis with him.
* DefrostingIceKing: Interacting with Izuku triggers his becoming a more relatable person.
* GracefulLoser: Takes his defeat to Izuku very well.
* HonoraryUncle: One of the few students outside 1-A that are this to Eri, especially since he refers to Izuku as big brother.
* IAmNotMyFather: The second half of why he's on FirstNameBasis with Izuku: he ''hates'' being compared with Endeavor.
* IncompatibleOrientation: ''Lots'' of girls are attracted to him, but he's asexual. His classmates comment on the irony of their most eligible bachelor being the least interested in ''any'' relationship.
* MythologyGag:
** Even though they have only met once, he still thinks Izuku is All Might's son.
** He begins to use the Fire half of his Quirk after Izuku talks him into it during their fight at the Tournament.
* NoSocialSkills: He is lousy at social interactions. It has put a wedge between him and Awase (particularly since he completely disregarded the other student during the Heroes vs Villains class). He's so bad that the vestiges genuinely could not tell if he was serious about wanting to call Izuku his dad or not.
* NotSoStoic: In spite of his nature as TheStoic, he gets broken out of it several times.
** Izuku {{no sell}}ing his OneHitKill glacier sends him reeling.
** [[PlayedForLaughs Ochako unleashing her]] ClusterFBomb on Bakugo shocks him.
** His fight against Izuku makes him grow increasingly irrational as hypothermia begins to affect him.
** He actually shows hints of being TheGadfly when he calls Izuku "Izuku-nii" -- [[ItMakesSenseInContext after promising not to call him "dad" again]].
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Since his father is related to Hisashi Midoriya, this makes him and Izuku fourth cousins.]]
* StealthHiBye: He's so silent that, when he sits next to Izuku during lunchtime, Izuku doesn't notice him until he speaks up.
* SuperBreedingProgram: He's the end result of Endeavor's attempt to have a child that would be more powerful than him and surpass All Might.

A flamboyant student of French ancestry who likes to be the center of attention. His Quirk, "Navel Laser", lets him fire lasers from his navel, although he needs a specialized belt to prevent it from "leaking".
----
* AdaptationNameChange: Instead of "Can't Stop Twinkling", his Hero name is Soleil.
* AdaptationalHeroism: [[spoiler:He's not a spy for All For One in this story. At least, not knowingly.]]
* AttentionWhore: Goes along with Monoma's plan for the sake of catching attention.
* DemotedToExtra: Twice over. Being in 1-B keeps him out of the shenanigans around 1-A, and he doesn't reach the Sports Festival Tournament.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Thanks to his parents, Aoyama is completely clueless to the fact that [[spoiler:his belt has been outfitted with a tracking device to inform the League of Villains of the summer training camp's location, that he was born Quirkless, and that his Quirk was given to him by All for One.]]
** The story also applies a {{Deconstruction}}, as being out of the loop means there's stuff he doesn't know certain parties would prefer he keep quiet about, [[spoiler:such as the "Quirk specialist" that "awakened" his Quirk, warning Izuku that Aoyama is linked to All for One]].
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:He's aghast to learn that he was the one that led the League of Villains to the summer training camp, even though he was completely LockedOutOfTheLoop.]]
* PowerIncontinence: His Quirk is not fully under control, and he needs a special lens to prevent leakage, and overuse of his Quirk tends to send him towards the bathroom due to the recoil of the blasts hitting his bowels. [[spoiler:This is because Navel Laser was a first-generation Quirk, which usually didn't have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Izuku ends up using Overhaul and Diagnosis to change his body so that it ''can'' finally function without the belt, and tells him to contact him for adjustments afterwards.]]

* HeelRealization: Downplayed. During their internships, Kamakiri confesses to Kirishima that he initially thought he could be a rival towards Bakugo because of their similar personalities. It was only later that Kamakiri realized that everything he had in common with Bakugo was everything that made Bakugo a villain.

A friend and classmate of Shinso, who also failed the Entrance Exam but hopes to use the Sports Festival to secure a position on the Hero Course, achieving this after the end of the tournament. His most defining feature is his missile-shaped pompadour.
----
* DelinquentHair: He has a red and white striped pompadour, though he's actually a very nice person.
* FightsLikeANormal: Because his Quirk doesn't work on himself, he practices boxing for actual combat.
* GracefulLoser: He doesn't mind Izuku beating him, admitting that he knew he didn't have a chance.
* HealingHands: [[spoiler:Pep Talk can heal the people he compliments. Akira did not know this until the Summer Training Camp]].
* TheHeart: Becomes the much-needed glue to keep 1-B together.
* NiceGuy: He's extremely friendly and easygoing.
* NoSelfBuffs: His Quirk does not work on himself -- he can only empower ''other'' people. Monoma copying his Quirk and using it on him is the first time he ever experienced his Quirk's effects for himself.
* PositiveFriendInfluence: Shoto says he is the main reason for Monoma to become a far more likable person.
* OCStandIn: He is one of the many background characters from the entrance exam.
* RatedMForManly: He's as big on manliness and fighting as Kirishima and Tetsutetsu. After introducing him to the former two, Izuku feels like he made a terrible mistake.
* RousingSpeech: His Quirk lets him empower people by complimenting and encouraging them, though he can't use it on himself.
* SuperEmpowering: His Quirk, Pep Talk, increases the strength, speed and stamina of the target for several hours by giving out compliments. They need to be sincere, though.
* SupportPartyMember: His Quirk isn't useful for direct combat but is very helpful to empower others.
* ThrowTheDogABone:
** Thanks to [[PowerCopying Monoma]], he gets to experience how his Quirk feels.
** According to All Might, he has a good chance of joining the Hero Course soon. It becomes confirmed later that he'll fill in one of the open slots in 1-B after the internships.

!!!'''Quirk:''' [[{{Intangibility}} Permeation]]

A third-year heroics student and the one Sir Nighteye originally wanted One for All to be passed to.
----
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: He laughs when Izuku brings up his accidental WardrobeMalfunction during his first Sports Festival.
* AdaptationalSexuality: His sexuality is unknown in canon, while here he's a StraightGay who's in a relationship with Tamaki.
* CommonalityConnection: He and Izuku instantly hit it off due to their love of heroes and helping others as well as both having difficult to control Quirks (One For All/Decade Force for Izuku and Permeation for Mirio). They quickly refer to each other as "Troublesome Quirk Brothers".
* DifficultButAwesome: Mirio's Quirk was very difficult to control, since using it rendered him blind and unable to breathe, and would cause him to fall through the ground. After training under Sir Nighteye's eye, he's turned it into an impressive tool that gives him high mobility and lets him use his fighting skills into a nearly unstoppable machine.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: He doesn't know that Sir Nighteye hoped him to become All Might's successor, and that he was willing to force Izuku to pass One for All to Mirio.
* PlugNPlayFriends: With Izuku. The two become friends before they even arrive at Sir Nighteye's agency.
* SketchySuccessor: Despite Sir's assumptions and the amount of training he has received, the previous Torchbearers believe he would be this in terms of holding One For All should he gets it, as even discounting the RapidAging aspect and the Quirk hitting its Singularity, Permeation is ill-suited due to its finicky nature and not synergizing well with the devastating and highly destructive One for All.
* StraightGay: Mirio has no particularly stereotypical traits of a gay man but mentions to Izuku that he's in a relationship with his classmate Tamaki.

* NotGoodWithPeople: He's extremely shy and socially awkward, to the point that he makes pre-U.A. Izuku look like an outgoing party guy.

!!!'''Quirk:''' [[BlessedWithSuck Rot]] [[PowerUpFood Eater]]

A business course student who approaches Izuku and offers to be his social media manager.
----
* BlessedWithSuck: Rot Eater's activation requires Takashi to eat foods that are especially pungent and that taste disgusting, and the more fermented, the better. Worse, it doesn't come with any resistance to those things and he has to eat by himself so as not disturb others. Izuku later finds him washing his mouth with ammonia after a meal.
* CutenessProximity: After being shown Tsuyu's videos of Eri, Takashi quickly realizes that Izuku is sitting on a social media goldmine and encourages him to use it.
* InternalReveal: Is the one to show Izuku the smear campaign being organized against him online, and offers his help to counter it.
* PowerUpFood: By eating gross and fermented foods, Takashi can increase his mental acuity, stamina, and speed.
* RefusalOfTheCall: Is described by WordOfGod as a sort of "anti-Izuku" in that his Quirk is well-suited for hero work, but he dislikes violence and danger and wants to be anything but one.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Of a sort. He and Izuku turn out to have "met" previously on [=HeroNet=] forums and frequented the same online circles.
* UndyingLoyalty: While he admits that his approaching Izuku was just business at first, he pledges his genuine loyalty to Izuku after [[spoiler:the hero student uses Overhaul to rework his taste buds to let him enjoy the disgusting foods he eats, while also decoupling his senses of taste and smell]].

[[folder:Nezu]]
!!Principal Nezu
!!!'''Quirk''': [[SuperIntelligence High Specs]]

The principal of U.A., Nezu is a creature of undetermined origin [[spoiler:later revealed to be a tiger quoll]] with a super-genius intellect. He also watches just about everything happening on the school grounds, and doesn't care who knows it.
----
* ArbitrarilyLargeBankAccount: Only one man ever cracked Nezu's financing, and even he said "you don't want to know". Nezu himself said he possesses a Budget that can be best described as [[MathematiciansAnswer "yes"]].
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Nezu is a hero without a doubt. But he's also not a human and thus has trouble with human morality. He still tries his best, and asks for clarification from others he trusts if his ideas are acceptable to human morality. Such as setting up and arranging pairings between genetically optimal people for the purposes of producing genetically superior children: also known as eugenics.
* BreadEggsMilkSquick: As Nezu puts it "I am not human, and while I have been able to observe human behavior, sometimes your culture's mores and traditions elude me, and do so for years. Trivial things, like what foods are acceptable for breakfast, what smells are considered pleasant to your palate, or the concept of [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers war crimes]]."
* BringIt: Nezu insists he'll fight All Might over whose successor Izuku will be. When All Might tries to point out that ship has sailed, Nezu cheerfully threatens to "crack open [All Might's] cervical vertebrae" with his teeth.
* TheDreaded: Nezu is feared by most everyone who knows of him, and they get a sense of schadenfreude when they learn he's turned his attention onto those that have wronged/angered them or those they care for. Even the vestiges all agree not to get on his bad side.
** Endeavor notes that no one knows ''[[NothingIsScarier what]]'' exactly happened to the scientists that experimented on Nezu. Whatever Nezu did, it left a few pieces of them spread over different ''continents''.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Nezu is a hero without a doubt, but he is not soft. He mentions plans to personally tear down Izuku's old middle school with his favorite wrecking ball after getting it closed down, and Izuku considers making a deal with him a DealWithTheDevil.
* HumbleHero: A bit of a meta example discussing the FandomSpecificPlot that is God Nezu, that is to say Nezu is all knowing and can make anything happen if he wants to.
-->'''Nezu:''' Sasaki-kun, despite my best efforts, I am not all powerful. I have a great deal of direct control over U.A., an agency set up specifically to investigate causes outside that, a great deal of sway thanks to my connections to educational institutions and other pro Heroes, [[ArbitrarilyLargeBankAccount and I possess a budget that can best be described as 'yes']], but I cannot simply point at a target and make them disappear.
* IfIWantedYouDead: Bluntly says this almost word for word when [[spoiler:Endeavor asks if Nezu is going to respond lethally now that he's confessed to his past abuse of his family. Nezu bluntly tells him that if his investigation into the Todoroki family hadn't revealed that things were more nuanced and formed of a tragedy of errors, bad choices, and mistakes than genuine malice like Shoto believed, then Endeavor would not have had the ''opportunity'' to confess to his actions. He would already ''be'' dead]].
* ShipperOnDeck: After hearing about the Bonding aspects of One for All after Izuku receives the Quirk, Nezu gets excited and tries to set Izuku up with different girls. One specific girl Nezu steered Izuku towards is Nejire, by trying to get Izuku to intern with Ryukyu or the heroes her friends interned with. For all the other girls Izuku bonded with, he merely made it easier for them to do relationship things.
* SoProudOfYou: When all of 1-A passes the practical exam, Nezu makes it clear he's proud of the lot -- particularly Denki and Mina, who managed to defeat him by timing a combination of their powers with his own attack.
* StunnedSilence: After Izuku casually reveals his original species, Nezu is left speechless, though once that passes, he immediately claims Izuku as his apprentice.
* {{Troll}}: Nezu's preferred brand of chaos in a nutshell. Most forms of misery he inflicts is for his own amusement.
* ViewerSpeciesConfusion: His species is unknown but he and Izuku have a lot of fun by letting Izuku try and figure it out. [[spoiler:In chapter 45, Izuku finally successfully identifies him as a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_quoll tiger quoll]].]]

[[folder:Eraser Head]]
!!Shota Aizawa -- Eraser Head
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[AntiMagic Erasure]]

Class 1-A's homeroom teacher and the pro hero Eraser Head. He's a bit of a LazyBum, but looks out for his students and pushes them to improve.
----
* DidntThinkThisThrough: When Ms. Joke tries to tease him during the licensing exam, he decided to get back at her by agreeing to give their relationship a shot. Aizawa initially enjoys the StunnedSilence from Joke and his students, but comes to regret it when Joke decides to milk it for all its worth. Though he couldn’t find it in himself to truly care.
* HeroicBSOD: PlayedForLaughs. When the Ennead suddenly develops the ability to teleport, Aizawa just curls up into his sleeping bag and refuses to get out of it.
* INeedAFreakingDrink:
** When Izuku reads him in on One for All, he goes to get himself coffee -- and drinks straight from the pot.
** After his HeroicBSOD, Vlad King slips him the last of his alcohol stash to deal with it.
* PapaWolf: Say what you want about him, but if you threaten his students, he ''will'' rain hell on the idiot trying that.
* RelationshipUpgrade: [[spoiler:With Emi Fukukado/Ms. Joke. Not even he knew what made him decide to humor Emi and take her proposals seriously, but he soon finds himself inwardly enjoying it.]]
* SinkOrSwimMentor: {{Deconstructed}}. While Aizawa's hardass attitude and logical ruses may let him get away with other students, the same can't be applied to Izuku, who spent nearly a decade being victim of {{apathetic teacher}}s who ignored his abuse. After Izuku accidentally voices his thoughts over how he doesn't know if he can trust Aizawa, Aizawa decides to improve and become a better mentor for his class.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Attempted to quit upon being given every female hero course student of the first years, but Nezu denies him.
** Upon seeing the Ennead teleport to Izuku, he went into his sleeping bag and shut himself out of the world.
* SeenItAll: After the events of Kamino Ward, Eraserhead no longer reacts in any way to Izuku and the rest of the ennead.
* SoProudOfYou: While he would ''never'' say it aloud, Aizawa is quite proud of how his class has developed as a whole.
--> Eraserhead was a little worried. Not for his class. No, that pack of monsters could take a day trip into Hell and come out singing.
* SternTeacher: He refuses to see a student graduate only to become an obituary. It's why he's expelled many students in the past, and why he insists on making sure the current batch takes everything seriously.
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:A more minor one in comparison to others, but Izuku uses Diagnosis and Overhaul to give him a nictating membrane, allowing him to hydrate his eye without losing eye contact with his target.]]

He's likely stopped [[spoiler:after Mineta and Bakugo's expulsions. In Chapter 45, he ends up giving the last of his alcohol to Aizawa to help him cope from the Ennead teleporting to Izuku.]]

[[folder:Midnight]]
!!Nemuri Kayama -- Midnight
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[KnockoutGas Somnambulist]]

U.A.'s teacher of Modern Hero Art History, as well as the R-Rated Hero.
----
* AdaptationalSexuality: In canon, Midnight is, seemingly at least, straight. Here she is either bi or pansexual, given her flirtatious conversation with Dark Shadow, who is a girl, and a living shadow.
* CoolBigSis: She was this for Tenya growing up, being one his older brother's closest friends, and he called her Nemuri-nee-san (Big Sis Nemuri).
* TheJailbaitWait: PlayedForLaughs. In order to throw Iida out of his game during their match at the Final Exams, she openly flirts with him, commenting how he became such an attractive young man. Iida is flabbergasted.
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Her Hero costume is a BDSM outfit made of an easy-to-tear cloth, which allows her to use her Quirk more easily. [[CelibateHero Yoichi]] comments that it is a little excessive, but [[TheGadfly Banjo]] replies that heroes in training need to desensitize themselves to such situations.
** Her early costumes were even ''worse'' in that regard. When Momo mentions that she based her {{Stripperiffic}} first costume on Midnight's first, Izuku points out that the Diet passed a law on how much skin heroes were allowed to expose thanks to that costume.

[[folder:Katsuki Bakugou]]
!!Katsuki Bakugou
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[HavingABlast Explosion]]

Izuku's former ChildhoodFriend and long-time bully. His Quirk, "Explosion", lets him produce a nitroglycerin-like liquid by sweating from his hands.
----
* AdaptationalJerkass: While Bakugo's behavior mirrors how he acts early on in canon, the story portrays him in a much negative light due to Izuku realizing his actual nature. When the U.A. teachers learn about his behavior, they initially toy with rejecting his application before coming around to Nezu's plan of attempting to correct his attitude, but when he proves willing to use lethal force on a fellow student for the sake of his wounded ego (and after being ''ordered'' not to do so), Vlad King expels him and Nezu digs up evidence of all of his attacks against Izuku, getting him labeled as a villain and finally forcing him through his HeelRealization.
* AdaptationalKarma: Compared to canon where he came off as a KarmaHoudini, Katsuki's behavior has not gone unnoticed and U.A.'s staff is more active in trying to rein it in and ultimately chooses to expel him when their attempts fall flat.
* TheAtoner: In the ''Unstable Compound'' spinoff. His fall from grace made him confront his past attitude, his belief that he could do no wrong, and how his ego made him mistake the nature of Izuku's actions. He also refuses a deal that would wipe out all his past transgressions and allow him to be a hero again, since people doctoring his records and letting him have a free pass is part of the reason that led him to his current predicament.
** After the Provisional License Exam, Izuku gets a letter where Bakugo sincerely apologizes for all the stuff he did in the past and states he'll do his best to make up for his actions.
* BehavioralConditioning: After a decade where not only wasn't he reprimanded for attacking Izuku, but was encouraged by teachers and peers, he just doesn't see what's wrong with bullying Izuku at all. A sign that he might be able to grow past this is shown in the side story "Unstable Compound", where he sees through the shady HPSC representative's "deal" as being little more than the ''exact'' kind of enabling that caused his problems in the first place.
* DemotedToExtra: In canon, Katsuki is one of the more important characters and is one of the main competitors of being the {{deuteragonist}}. But not only is he and Izuku put in different home rooms, but also as per WordOfGod, he ends up no longer having a role in the story after being PutOnABus. Though he ends up being the main protagonist of the side story "Unstable Compound".
* EveryoneHasStandards: He's disgusted with Mineta's perversions. [[spoiler:He also warns Izuku about the HPSC's manipulations.]]
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: While "evil" might be a bit too much, there are several instances of this:
** He doesn't see the worth of "rescue points" in the Entrance Exam, thinking the exam's only purpose should have been to smash villains.
** He is genuinely shocked that ''everyone'' in U.A. (from the teachers to his classmates) is disgusted over his bullying of Izuku.
** All Might's disgust with him elicits his confusion about what he has ever done to the hero to cause it.
* FatalFlaw: Wrath and Pride.
** Wrath: He has a terrible temper that is prone to explode at the turn of a page. Needless to say, this doesn't endear him to anyone.
** Pride: He is incredibly self-centered and has an ego that is as enormous as fragile. Also, as far as he's concerned, anything Izuku (whom he bullied for ten-plus years) does is only aimed at attempting to upstage him.
* HatedByAll: Unlike in Aldera and even compared to canon, Katsuki quickly slips into this when he enters UA. At best, the staff is extremely wary of him, his classmates in 1-B barely tolerate him, and Izuku, the sole person outside his family who did care, ultimately grew out of his admiration for him. Not helping his case when he ultimately admits his FantasticRacism towards Quirkless people in front of the hero course students, which cements his unpopularity among them.
* HeelRealization: Hearing All Might's backstory causes Bakugo to realize that Izuku isn't a minor obstacle in his story, he's a villain in Izuku's.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: The story being ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/35888899/chapters/89487844 Unstable Compound]]'', chronicling his journey to redemption.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: Bakugou has a massive ego, but it is fragile, requiring constant reinforcement for him to feel good about himself. Before U.A., this came from abusing Izuku, enabling teachers, and sycophantic classmates. At U.A., there is none of that, and his sense of superiority is constantly challenged.
* InsaneTrollLogic: From the perspective of his classmates, as he's seen as being delusional about his beliefs concerning Midoriya and his past about being Quirkless.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Katsuki is a completely self-centered person who believes himself to be the future Number One Hero, doesn't care about other people (to the point that he outright tells his classmates they don't deserve to have names) and believes that U.A.'s teachers should be falling upon themselves to have him as student. In fact, the only reason U.A.'s staff allowed him to join was because they were worried he would become a vigilante or even an outright villain if they didn't try to, at least, curb his behavior, and expel him when it's obvious he isn't willing to change.
** Another example is that he believes Izuku faked being Quirkless for more than a decade just to mock him, and won't consider otherwise even when other people point at the gaping holes in his "logic".
* JerkassHasAPoint: Unlike Mineta, he came to U.A. to learn how to become a hero, not to chase girls.
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: He's expelled from U.A. after he uses a potentially lethal attack on Ochako and is labeled an A-rank villain because of his 10-year-long bullying of Izuku. Though it's later revealed he was meant to be a ''C-rank'' and the HPSC inflated his ranking in an attempt to manipulate him.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Bullying Izuku for ten years just because he was Quirkless blows in his face when the Hero Public Safety Commission labels him an A-rank villain on the basis of said bullying.
* TheNicknamer: He gives everyone else unflattering nicknames because he doesn't even bother to learn the names of the 'extras' (and actually thinks they don't ''deserve'' to have them).
* NormalFishInATinyPond: Back in Aldera, he was constantly praised for his powerful Quirk and his actions were whitewashed by the teachers. Come U.A., and he finds himself around people with Quirks that are as strong or stronger than his and who aren't willing to stroke up his ego.
* PutOnABus: After chapter 10, he's expelled from U.A. and ends up in a villain reform program. WordOfGod says he's gone from the story completely, barring a minor appearance in a possible epilogue. Though the author began writing a side story focused on him.
* RevengeBeforeReason: He decides to use his grenade gauntlets on Ochako, even though All Might is explicitly telling him not to, just because he wants to hurt "Deku's bitch".
* RightForTheWrongReasons: Despite coming off as delusional, Bakugo has every right to be suspicious of Izuku suddenly having a Quirk and believes that there's more to it, but incorrectly thinks that Midoriya is either lying or somehow cheated for it.
* SirSwearsALot: He has a pretty foul mouth, though he's outdone by Ochako, of all people.
* SpottingTheThread: Immediately notices how the HPSC inflated his Villain rank just to later make it more likely he'll take their deal.
* TranquilFury: Learning about Izuku's exploits during the USJ Incident makes him so enraged that "it almost looped back to calm".
* UnreliableNarrator: Bakugou describes U.A. as garbage, but that is only because the teachers don't let him get away with the crap he was doing at previous schools while his classmates refuse to put up with his attitude and are not acting sycophantic like his previous classmates.
* WrongGenreSavvy: He thought that he was the hero of the story, while Izuku was either a "pebble in the road" or someone trying to steal his glory. It isn't until his HeelRealization that he realizes that he's actually a villain in Izuku's OriginStory.

!!!'''Quirk:''' [[StickySituation Pop Off]]

A perverted student with hair in the form of purple grapes. His Quirk, "Pop Off", lets him rip his hair and throw it in order to either trap enemies or create trampolines he can bounce from.
----
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Had he not been so obsessed with groping Momo, he would have won their match. Alas…
* ExtremeLibido: He constantly thinks with his hormones, so much that he openly leers at the other girls, blatantly states his willingness to harass them and gropes one even though there are multiple witnesses -- one of them being Japan's Number One Hero.
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: After years of avoiding trouble for his sexual harassing thanks to his [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections connections]], his blatant groping of Momo not only gets him expelled from U.A., he's targeted with a lawsuit from Momo's very influential and wealthy father who is ''very unhappy'' that Mineta's actions were allowed to continue to that point.
* LovableSexManiac: {{Averted}} compared to canon. Mineta's perversions are not treated as a gag. Instead, he is treated as a predator who U.A. faculty only allows in spite of uncovering evidence of his crimes because he has connections and, ''officially'', his record is clean.
* PutOnABus: After molesting Momo during their spar and violating his probation, he's expelled from U.A. entirely. A later chapter mentions that he and his family lost their lawsuit with Momo's father.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: He never gets stuck to his hairballs. This allows him to bounce between them as if they were a trampoline.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: He was right in that Izuku had managed to form a "harem" with 1-A's girls, but he was wrong in thinking that it was only because of his being a powerful student as well as being with ''all'' of the 1-A girls.

* AllForNothing: Even before he learns that All Might would be retiring within the year, Enji realizes (thanks to Izuku) that Shoto becoming number one wouldn't be the victory he wanted as he'd be reduced to simply "Shoto Todoroki's father".
* EveryoneHasStandards: Before learning why his cousin seemingly abandoned his family, Enji desperately hoped it wasn't because his son was Quirkless, insisting that such a thing was "a step too far".
* FreudianExcuse: He really did not know his mother's abrasive behavior was abusive instead of just very harsh. It took a conversation with his cousin [[spoiler:Hisashi]] for him to realize how messed up his childhood was.
* HeelRealization: Izuku's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to him gets the man thinking about just how bad that he has messed up in his life.
* HiddenDepths:
** Izuku, Ochako, and Shouto realize Endeavor could have married several women apart from Rei if his objective was ''just'' to have a child with a strong Quirk due to polygamy being legal, but the Pro never did.
** He also looks fondly back to his time with [[spoiler:Hisashi]], short as it was.
* LikeFatherLikeSon:
** It turns out, [[TheChainOfHarm his mother was highly abusive as well]], once badly beating his cousin [[spoiler:Hisashi]] then denying him food for three days because he failed a test. Enji legitimately didn't realize such a thing was unusual.
** In a more humorous version, he believed that Izuku might be All Might's biological son, much like Shoto does.
* PetTheDog: He took the time to give his cousin [[spoiler:Hisashi]] tips on how to control his Quirk. Also, even though his cousin only lived with them for a short time, Enji still remembers him well enough to recognize his features in [[spoiler:Hisashi's son, Izuku]], and decides to ask him how to deal with his current problems and how to improve himself.

[[folder:Sir Nighteye]]
!!Mirai Sasaki -- Sir Nighteye
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[CombatClairvoyance Foresight]]

A Pro Hero who was once All Might's sidekick, though the two have since parted ways. Despite being quite strict and serious, he greatly values laughter and humor.
----
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: He snorts when Izuku states that his collection of All Might merchandise wants to be Nighteye's when it grows up.
* ConfirmationBias: InUniverse. He looks at everything that Izuku says and does during the Sports Festival and then twists it to fit his idea that Mirio would be the better choice for One For All.
* DidntSeeThatComing: [[spoiler:He was left dumbfounded when he saw All Might's restored form -- and even more when using his Quirk on Endeavor caused him to see ''multiple'' futures.]]
* EntertaininglyWrong:
** He doesn't know that, were Mirio to get One for All, not only would it throw off his control over Permeation (which took months of hard work to perfect), it would ''kill'' him due to One for All's RapidAging issue (according to Yoichi, it would do so in ''two years'').
** One of the things he takes issue with is Izuku calling All Might "Toshinori-sensei". What he ''doesn't'' know is that Izuku also calls him "Dad".
* GracefulLoser: When he realizes he was mistaken about Izuku, he acknowledges it and tries to make amends for it.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: It takes All Might's intervention to realize that the initial reason why he didn't want Izuku as All Might's successor (Quirkless, unexperienced and untrained) would have also disqualified All Might himself.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: He professes how inferior Izuku is as the next holder of One for All and how no one would ever look up to him. This is because he completely ignores social media and doesn't realize Izuku has been praised constantly ever since the Sports Festival.
* MustMakeAmends: Once he realizes Izuku was right about why Mirio shouldn't receive One for All along with proof that Izuku is indeed a worthy successor to All Might, Sir Nighteye gifts Izuku his prized first edition All Might action figure, described as the holy grail of All Might merchandise.
* PoseOfSupplication: Gave Izuku a textbook Dogeza after realizing just how badly he misunderstood the boy.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: One of the first things he says to Izuku is tearing him a new one over his "showboating and egotism" in the Sports Festival. [[YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame He's very upset to realize the only people who share his opinion are blatant]] {{troll}}s.
* TooCleverByHalf: He's intelligent, a good Pro Hero that synergized well with All Might when they worked together and managed to help Mirio learn how to use Permeation to the point he could be as good as a veteran Pro in just a year. Unfortunately, he let that get to his head: their initial break was caused by him using Foresight on All Might without permission after the fight with All for One, and then he disregarded All Might's choice of successor as inferior to his own candidate even though he didn't even know Izuku, that it was up to All Might to pick and that it would leave Izuku Quirkless all over again.

[[folder:Gran Torino]]
!!Sorahiko Torino -- Gran Torino
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[NotQuiteFlight Jet]]

An elderly, retired hero who offers Iida an internship. He was All Might's homeroom teacher and a good friend of Nana Shimura, making him one of the few who knows the full truth about One For All.
----
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: He gives a full-on belly laugh when Iida suggests that "repeated blows to the head" (read: Gran repeatedly kicking him in the face) might have impaired his thinking process.
* CoolOldGuy: He's a retired hero, but he can still run rings around younger heroes and fight All for One. He also shows a softer side by telling Eri he can be her great-grandfather (or great-Gran Torino) if she wants.
* TheDreaded: All Might fears him to the point that just saying his name causes the man to shake in fear. Iida later mentions that his relatives, who Sorahiko also helped train in the past, had a similar reaction when he told them about his internship offer. Izuku, after one day of training with him, asks Iida how in the blazes he survived Torino for an entire week.
* GoodIsNotSoft: A hardass like none other, most of his training involves him kicking his students in the face, as poor Iida finds out.
* ManlyTears: [[spoiler:The crusty Sorahiko let some tears fall thanks to Izuku giving him some closure with his dear friend Nana.]]
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Like in canon, when Iida first shows up to his internship, Torino pretends to be a senile old man... until he suddenly kicks Iida in the face, loses his befuddled expression, and tells him to "show him what he's got".
* OldMaster: Gran Torino is a man old enough to know Iida's grandfather Tentarou, but is still a highly skilled and seasoned semi-retired Pro Hero.

!!!'''Quirk:''' [[MakeMeWannaShout Orcinus]]
The Number Ten Hero, and Tsuyu's mentor.

* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: He is introduced during the Internship Arc instead of during the Hideout Raid arc.
* CutenessProximity: Like everybody else, he is not immune to Eri's cuteness, especially when she is wearing a Gang Orca onesie.
* FriendToAllChildren: This is one of the things Tsu loves the most about her mentor.
* MentorArchetype: To Tsuyu, since the first Internship week.
* MisplacedRetribution: He terrorizes a white shark during villain hunt alongside Selkie upon finding out that he lost the bet over who Izuku was dating.
* SideBet: He was betting that Izuku was dating Tsu before she revealed they were polyamourous. Needless to say, he is not happy when Shishido (who had bet on a polyamory) wins the pot.
* {{Revenge}}: PlayedForLaughs. He decides to take his revenge for losing the bet during his fight against Tsu during the Provisional License Exam. He loses.

[[folder:Ryukyu]]
!!Ryuko Tatusma -- Ryukyu
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[{{Weredragon}} Dragon]]
The Number Nine Hero, as well Ochako and Nejire's mentor.
----
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: She is introduced during the Internship Arc instead of during the Shie Hassaikai arc.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: She is the person to keep Mirko in check and make sure she doesn't pick a fight (and by that, it means knocking out) her sidekicks when one of them seems to be strong enough to go against her.
* EmbarrassingNickname: Mirko has the bad habit of calling her "Lizardbreath".
* MentorArchetype: To Ochako and Nejire.
* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: She is part of the Hideout Raid Team on this story.

[[folder:Mt. Lady]]
!!Yu Takeyama -- Mt. Lady
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever Gigantification]]
A newcomer Pro Hero and Yui's mentor.
----
* BearHug: Gives one to Yui when her "Quirk awakening" allows her to link the size of a pair of boots to Mt. Lady's, allowing the heroine to avoid going barefoot at all.
* MentorArchetype: To Yui, starting with the first Internship week.
* MundaneUtility: She asks Yui to use her Quirk to make her boots bigger alongside her, so she won't have to walk around barefoot in her giant form.
* SenpaiKohai: She insists on being referred as "Takeyama-senpai" by Yui.
* ShipperOnDeck: To Yui and Izuku. And even though she is glad they are polyamourous, she is upset losing the SideBet to Shishido.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Star and Stripe]]
!!Cathleen "Cathy" Bate -- Star and Stripe
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[RealityWarper New Order]]
The United States' #1 Hero. Cathleen was one of the first people All Might saved during his heroic career, and became inspired by this to become a heroine, even styling herself after All Might.\\\
Her Quirk, New Order, allows her to impose a rule on herself or onto anything or anyone she touches, as long as she can properly name them. While the number of rules she can keep at the same time is limited, the effect can be anything she imagines.
----
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: As an adult, she didn't make her debut until after the Paranormal Liberation Arc. In this story, she shows up during the I-Expo.
* BearHug: She gives a great big hug, complete with lifting and spinning around, to Izuku when she realizes he's All Might's disciple.
* CurbStompBattle: She effortlessly defeats Wolfram off screen before the I-Expo.
* ImTakingHerHomeWithMe: Averted with conscious effort. Cathleen had to fight her instincts to adopt Eri and take her home with her, citing how adorable she is.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Narrowly averted. When Izuku mentions he doesn't fully understand how his Quirk works, Cathleen uses her Quirk so he'll "Fully understand everything about his Quirk". Doing so instantly knocks Izuku out from [[MySkullRunnethOver information overload]], causing her to quickly rescind the Order. She fears this trope enough that she quickly decides to not use her Quirk like that on Izuku again lest something permanent happens.
* {{Polyamory}}: She's in a relationship with her flight mates.
* PutOnABus: Was unable to help in the battle against All For One due to dealing with her own supervillain mess over in America. WordOfGod is that Mugen called in a few favors to ensure Cathleen was not available to help.
* RealityWarper: How her Quirk, New Order, works: she says up to two orders and reality bends over to execute it, and rescinding it turns reality back to normal. It has a hard limit of two orders with one order being used to keep her on par with All Might. It also can be used on people other than herself but it requires Cathy to know the target's full name.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: When someone in the comments mentioned Cathleen's canon fate, this was the author's response:
--> Canon darted out in front of my car at night and I ran it over. I got out to check and once I saw what it was, I backed up over it and ran it over again.

[[folder:Miruko]]
!!Rumi Usagiyama -- Miruko
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[AnimalThemedSuperbeing Rabbit]]
The Number 5 ranked Pro Hero in Japan and Izuku's mentor during the work studies program.
----
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Between dropping in and out of school combined with Quirk discrimination, Rumi hasn't had it easy.
* DontThinkFeel: This is Miruko's primary lesson when training Izuku, as she recognizes that Izuku can fight fairly well, but he tends to overthink things and end up distracted in the middle of his fights. She first tries to teach him this by [[TeachHimAnger needling him with insults]], which works, but ends up with her embedded in a wall when Izuku reaches his [[RageBreakingPoint breaking point]]. Izuku eventually finds a way to enter this state on command: ''his muttering''.
* KickChick: With a rabbit-based Quirk, natch.
* NotSoAboveItAll: In chapter 53, she realizes she's genuinely invested in Izuku, even thinking of him as her little brother. She also plays with Eri after meeting her.
* PrecisionFStrike: Upon realizing she’s getting attached to Izuku, she lets one out.
* StrongAndSkilled: One of the reasons she is such a hard opponent to beat is the fact that she knows how to use her strength to the fullest and how to fight without just throwing more power at a problem. She spends most of their first spar outright manhandling Izuku due to her superior skill.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Hawks]]
!!Keigo Takami -- Hawks
!!!'''Quirk''': [[FeatherFlechettes Fierce Wings]]
The current Number Two Hero and Fumikage's mentor.
----
* CommonalityConnection: He admits to have recruited Tokoyami because he is a bird too.
* EveryoneHasStandards: He is shocked when the President tells him to kill Twice, because his "Sad Man's Parade" move is too dangerous to be used against them.
* IndenturedServitude: Officially, he's under the direct employ of the HPSC, but in practice he owns nothing, not even his casual/civillian clothes are his own. This means that, despite his wings, he's very much a {{caged bird|Metaphor}}.

!!Santo Kaliman
[[folder:El Popo]]
!!Popocatepetl "El Popo", the Volcanic Hero
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[MagmaMan Igneous]]
One of Mexico's top heroes and teacher at Santo Kaliman Academy. Who, much like All Might, took up a teaching position as he prepares for his own retirement.
----
* TheAce: He is Mexico's Number One Hero, and one of the most powerful heroes in the world.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: His "skin" is a pitch-black layer of obsidian that covers his actual skin.
* DishingOutDirt: El Popo's Quirk, in addition to controlling magma and lava, also grants full control over igneous rock, such as obsidian, which the hero can turn back into lava again and vice versa.
* TheDreaded: His students are rightly afraid of him. Given how he casually speaks of giving his students lava baths, there are reasons for it.
* DrillSergeantNasty: He treats his students the way [[Film/FullMetalJacket Gunnery Sergeant Hartman]] treated the Marine trainees.
* {{Expy}}: A blatant one to Mr. Popo from ''Dragon Ball Abridged''.
* FunctionalAddict: Consumes peyote by the truck, but is still one of Mexico's best heroes.
* MagmaMan: He has an incredibly powerful volcano quirk.
* NoodleIncident: Whatever got him banned from Japan. All we know is that part of it was him having his ''body weight'' in peyote on his person.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: He was one of the people that helped create Kuraudo Island a century or two before.

[[folder:Tigre]]
!!Tigre Diego Ocelopilli Kin'ich Pakal Hyouhen y Chak Balam -- White Jaguar
!!!'''Quirk''': [[BattleAura Mythical Jaguar]]
A heroics student from Mexico and friend of Melissa.
----
* TheAce: Tigre is one of the few people that has been able to beat Izuku in a fight. He is also the top student at his hero school.
* BattleAura: Mythical Jaguar allows him generate an aura with his body in one of seven colors that embody one of seven elements and they grant him offensive, defensive, and mobility powers that enhance the physical prowess of his heteromorphic jaguar features.
* TheBusCameBack: He returns in Chapter 55, where it is revealed he's been doing long-distance dating with Pony.
* ChekhovsGunman: Tigre is mentioned during Izuku and All Might's talk with David and Melissa Shield in Chapter 11.
* ColorCharacter: '''White''' Jaguar.
* ColorCodedElements: His Quirk allows him to use different abilities based on what color his spots are at the moment.
* {{Foil}}: In many ways, he is one to Shoto. Both are TheAce of their respective classes, both are children of their countries top heroes, altough Tigre's mother is also a Pro, and both have Quirks that are perfect matches of their parents ones, altough in Tigre's, that was completely accidental.
* HeroicLineage: His mother and father are Pro Heroes from Mexico.
* MeaningfulName:
** Apart for his name fitting his appearance, the translation of his name into kanji contains the kanji for "blood", "fear" and "rip"/"tear".
** His super moves and "Smashes" are all named after Mesoamerican cities.
* NeverHeardThatOneBefore: Says as much when Menagerie warns the students that they shouldn't fight him, because he's more than capable of killing them.
* OneSceneWonder: InUniverse. Tigre shows up in chapter 33 but he takes up a good portion of the chapter to explain who he is and what he can do. Subverted when he returns for a later arc.
* {{OC}}: Tigre is created by the author and has no canon source.
* OverlyLongName: His name is 9 words long.
* {{Polyglot}}: He can speak multiple languages. His Japanese is somewhat broken, but he still can talk.
* ShipTease: With Pony. The two regularly converse after meeting on I-Island, and he gets visibly flustered when talking about her. They later make out in the forest near the end of their trip to Kuraudo Island.
* SuperpowerLottery: His Quirk is match between his father's [[AnimalThemedSuperbeing Onca]] and his mother's [[ColorCodedElements Rainbow]].
* TrainingFromHell: His training with El Popo is so traumatizing that he prefers not even think about it.

[[folder:Donald Moreno]]
!!Donald Moreno -- Don of the Dead
!!!'''Quirk:''' Necrodancer
One of Tigre's classmates from Santo Kaliman.
----
* ConspiracyTheorist: Going by his conversation with his classmates, Donald tends to see abusive relationships everywhere. While he was right once, his friends are tired of him assuming any unusual relationship is abusive.
* MusicalAssassin: His Quirk requires he play music to work.
* NightOfTheLivingMooks: Donald's Quirk lets him create [[DemBones skeleton constructs]] which he controls.
* PunnyName: His hero name is play with the name of the movie ''Film/DawnOfTheDead1978''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Hugo Cabezón]]
!!Hugo Cabezón -- Pensadorado
!!!'''Quirk:''' Mental Network

----
* MeaningfulName: "Cabezón" means "big head", perfect for someone with a mental quirk.
* WhyDidntIThinkOfThat: The skills he implants in people (or borrows for himself) fade over time, but until Izuku asked, he never considered practicing said skill would help them stay.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Cesar Tiburcio]]
!!Cesar Tiburcio -- Rey del Tiburón
!!!'''Quirk:''' Sharkskin

----
* KayFabe: It's implied that Cesar's rude and abrasive behavior is an act he puts on as part of his Hero persona (specifically the Lucha Libre "rudo" archetype), not his real personality.
* MeaningfulName: "Tiburcio" shares a root with "tiburón", shark.
* MirrorCharacter: He physically resembles Eijiro and Tetsutetsu.
* ThreateningShark: His Quirk gives him the skin and teeth of a shark.

* HellHound: Half of her transformation turns her into this.
* MeaningfulName: "Lupita" comes from the latin "lupus", wolf, and "lobos" is Spanish for "wolves".

!!Xavier institute
[[folder: Alistair Avery]]
!!Alistair Avery -- Principatus
!!!'''Quirk:''' Unnamed Wings Quirk

----
* {{Jerkass}}: His first scene is repeatedly insulting Monoma for perceived slights, such as Monoma being surprised he's fluent in Japanese.
* MirrorCharacter: Avery acts very similarly to how Monoma did at the start of the story, including believing Monoma thinks he's better than him just because the teen has fought real villains. When Avery begins to badmouth 1-A, it triggers Monoma's HeelRealization as he realizes the similarities.
[[/folder]]

!!One for All's Torchbearers
[[folder:In General]]
The previous holders of One for All. Due to the Quirk hitting singularity much earlier than anticipated, they can talk with Izuku and gradually give him their original Quirks.
----
* AscendedExtra: While the Vestiges ''are'' important in canon, their activeness [[AdaptationalEarlyAppearance pops up earlier than in canon]] and they play a much more important role in Izuku's development.
* FamilyOfChoice: Izuku ends up seeing them this way, which they reciprocate (with even the second and third holders eventually coming around).
* HonoraryUncle: They appoint themselves to positions as Izuku's honorary family, with Yoichi (First) as the grandfather, Hikage (Fourth) and Daigoro (Fifth) as his uncles, En (Sixth) as his big brother/cousin, and Nana (Seventh) and All Might as his parents. Ryouji (Second) and Isamu (Third) initially refused to participate, so the others name them the crazy uncles they keep locked up in the attic until they finally broke down. For his part, Izuku happily accepts them all as family, using the proper UsefulNotes/JapaneseHonorifics when speaking of them.
* NumericalThemeNaming: All who either contributed to the creation of One For All or inherited it happens to have parts of their name be homophones with a number in Japanese or use the kanji for those numbers, from zero to nine. The Torchbearers only realized Izuku fit after Satsuki used the kanji for nine when she misspelled Izuku's first name on her art piece.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: [[spoiler:A level 3 bond with their linked girl allows the individual Vestige to manifest in the real world and be seen by Izuku and anyone else at the third level bond. A level 4 bond allows others to see the Vestige when they manifest in the real world, for two hours and within a certain radius of Izuku]].
* SpiritAdvisor: They're long dead, but nevertheless provide Izuku with both much needed guidance and emotional support.
* SuperiorSuccessor: Due to One for All's mechanism, each of them was this to their predecessor.
* YouCanSeeMe: Or hear, rather. The Vestiges have this reaction when Izuku reacts to the comments they make about his life very early on. [[spoiler:When Nana manifests after the Kamino raid, she asks this to Inko, who is seeing her due to the Level 4 bond.]]
* YouAreNotAlone: They are able to support Izuku even in his worse moments.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The First Bearer]]
!!Yoichi Shigaraki
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SuperEmpowering Gift]] [[labelnote:*]]Unofficial Name[[/labelnote]]
All for One's brother. Initially believed to be Quirkless, until his brother transferred him a power stockpile Quirk. Turns out he had a Quirk which allowed him to transfer his Quirk to others, and both Quirks ended up merging into One for All. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Momo.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: Yoichi's original Quirk has gone unnamed. In ''Kyuseishu's Hero Analysis'', Izuku dubbed it Gift in Yoichi's file for the sake of differentiating from before Power Stockpile's integrating.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: He's notably more [[GallowsHumor irreverent]] and [[CoolOldGuy playfully snarky]] than in canon while still firmly being the [[TheHeart kindhearted and gentle]] and [[NiceGuy good natured]] GreaterScopeParagon among the One For All collective. As implied by his "I died memeing the first time, I'll die memeing again" comment, he went out blatantly [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu snarking]] at his [[BigBad older brother]], which while ''absolutely amazing'', paints him as nowhere near the stoic solemn figure that canon has him being.
* AdaptationalSexuality: His sexuality is unknown in canon. Here, he's asexual.
* CainAndAbel: He's the Abel to All for One's Cain.
* DefiantToTheEnd: As expected for a self-proclaimed Meme Lord, his last act of defiance was to [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu snark]] at his brother. [[spoiler:Yoichi's final words were revealed in chapter 36. Facing his brother, on the verge of death, and having already passed on One for All, he said:]]
--> [[spoiler:Sorry, Brother, but {{your princess is in another castle}}.]]
* FountainOfMemes: InUniverse example. Yoichi is the main source of pop culture references from the pre-Quirk era.
* GallowsHumor: When the Vestiges mention to Izuku [[spoiler:One for All's DeadlyUpgrade notion]], he jokes that, even if it wouldn't have affected him, he would have still died young. Being an ill boy in life might have "helped" get Yoichi this kind of mentality.
* GreaterScopeParagon: He was the one that started the line of the One for All Torchbearers, and passed the Quirk down when it became obvious he was not strong enough to stop his brother.
* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: The reason he passed OFA on Ryouji. He knew even with the boost he'd be a hindrance to him and Isamu.
* MeaningfulName: His given name essentially translates into "(the) gifting one".
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Downplayed. Izuku calls Yoichi's surname, which means something to the effect of "Death-gripping tree", morbid.
* PowerupLetdown: One For All in his hands only [[DamnedByFaintPraise slightly improved]] his health.
* {{Troll}}: In ''Kyuseishu's Hero Analysis'', Izuku mentions how Yoichi seemed to thrive off of the groaning he gets from Isamu and Ryouji suffering off his memes; he even says it to their faces while the Torchbearers and the Ennead were cheering up Toru when she got a jealousy-induced depression over Camie's Quirk during the Provisional Hero License Exams.
** En mentioned to Aizawa that had it not been for the Level 4 Bond limits for Vestige manifestation having a hard cap with distance and time limit, Yoichi would spend every spare moment doing victory dances in front of his incarcerated brother. [[spoiler:He finally gets to dance to his heart's content when Izuku visits Tartarus to try and fix the Winged Nomu.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Second Bearer]]
!!Ryouji Futatsuya -- Slingshot
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[DeadlyDisc Laser Disc]]

Yoichi's successor, who lived through the peak of All for One's reign of terror over Japan. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Yui. [[spoiler:Temporarily responsible for Izuku's bond with Toga.]]
----
* NinetiesAntiHero: Implied by the other vestiges. He lived through a dark age, dislikes All Might for being "too soft", and the other vestiges call him an "edgelord".
* AdaptationalNameChange: The Second User's name has yet to be revealed in canon. Here, he’s Ryouji Futatsuya and his vigilante alias was Slingshot.
* AdaptationalSexuality: His sexuality in canon remains unknown. In this fic, he is homosexual and married to Isamu.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: Due to being written before the Second's canon Quirk was revealed, the author reverse-engineered it and thought it was solely projectile based, resulting in Laser Disc. Come manga chapter 368-369, it's been revealed to be "Gearshift": a touch-activated SuperSpeed Quirk with power levels named after the speeds of a gearbox.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: He was the only child with a Quirk in a Quirkless family. While his family loved and supported him nonetheless, society did not. In fact, they forced him to hide who really was out of hate towards him. The fact the Ryouji is homosexual doubles on the parallels between persecution against Quirked individuals and prejudice against the LGBT community.
* ColdSniper: His attitude to dealing with annoyances compared to Bakugo is to go quiet, find a good vantage point, and throw a disc for a headshot.
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** He was once bullied by Quirkless people because he had a Quirk, and is disgusted to see the opposite thing is now common.
** He's also outraged by Endeavor's actions towards his family, immediately suggesting they kill him. Izuku's reaction, while it doesn't bring him around, it does make it obvious he's getting closer.
** Ryouji was fully prepared to kill Yoichi when they met, expecting him to be living like king in a palatial estate or something, surrounded by Mugen's top enforcers as protection. When he found Yoichi, in a forgotten vault (very much implying All For One sees him less as a beloved family member and more as a Possession), sickly and begging to be freed, Ryoujo immediately decided to take him with him and Isamu instead of going through with it.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Other than the Third Bearer, who was his friend and lover in life, none of the other vestiges like him, and the feeling is mutual.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: How he justifies all the people he had to kill back in his time. Considering they were mostly either government sanctioned murderers of meta-humans or All for One supporters, he can hardly be blamed.
* InLoveWithYourCarnage: Izuku's speech about ruining Endeavor impresses him. Not as much as the third bearer, but still.
* ItWasAGift: How he sees Yoichi giving him One For All. In his eyes, Yoichi gave up part of his very soul to give them a better shot at beating All For One.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Best exemplified on his entry at ''Kyuseishu's Heroic Analysis'':
--> '''Ryouji, on Izuku's notes''': '' I still might have given you One for All if it were my choice instead of All Might. He's too much of a goody-two-shoes for my tastes, but I'll admit you had the right instincts with that Sludge Villain. And in this society? I'd give you my Meta Ability in a fucking heartbeat, partly because you needed one to fucking survive without getting shat on, and partly to spite every single Quirked brat out there who decided that, since we ended up taking the top spot that we got to be the same class of bastard that tried to kill us."\\
'''Izuku, on his notes''': I'll freely admit, I cried when he said that. Which made him want to take it back.
* LaResistance: He was the leader of a group of vigilantes that fought against the Quirkist government and later All for One's shadow rule.
* LastKiss: [[spoiler:How he passed One for All to his husband Isamu, before leaving to fight All for One and dying in the process.]]
* ProfessionalKiller: Calling it "professional" might be a stretch, but (partially) as a result of living during the height of AFO's power, Ryouji has a fairly high body count he's not at all remorseful about. [[spoiler:It's this CommonalityConnection that allows [[SerialKiller Toga]] to (temporarily) bond with Izuku.]]
* RunningGag: InUniverse. Ryouji, in Isamu's chapter of ''Kyuseishu’s Heroic Analytics'', often teases Isamu over how his lover's Quirk is so basic.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Downplayed, but he certainly believes that his sister is somewhere in Bakugou's family tree due to somewhat resembling Katsuki. [[spoiler:In Ryouji's segment in ''Kyuseishu's Hero Analysis'', Mitsuki had looked into the family registry and found that her maternal great-grand mother was ''a'' Futatsuya, but as the given name didn't match, it had to be a descendant of Ryouji's sister. Later confirmed in the video leak of Isamu's capture of Destro, where Isamu dropped the bombshell that the MLA is the reason Ryouji's sister was buried.]]
* TakingYouWithMe: [[spoiler:He went out by overcharging Laser Disc and destroying Mugen's headquarters. While Mugen survived, his inner circle was mostly killed, and he lost many resources, forcing him underground and allowing the government to reform.]]
* VillainKiller: Ryouji killed many of All for One supporters back in the day. In his final operation he overcharged a Laser Disc and single-handedly destroyed Mugen's headquarters and killed most of his inner circle, effectively ending his open tyrannical rule and forcing him to attempt to take over the world from the shadows.

[[folder:The Third Bearer]]
!!Isamu Mitsunami -- Charger
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[ChargedAttack Fa Jin]]

The Second Bearer's friend and successor. Like him, he lived through the peak of All for One's reign of terror. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Nejire.
----
* NinetiesAntiHero: Implied by the other vestiges. He lived through a dark age, dislikes All Might for being "too soft", and the other vestiges call him an "edgelord". He also proposes ''killing'' Endeavor after learning how horribly abusive the man is.
* AdaptationalNameChange: The Third User's name has yet to be revealed in canon. Here, he’s Isamu Mitsunami and his vigilante alias was Charger.
* AdaptationalSexuality: His sexuality in canon remains unknown. In this fic, he is homosexual and was married to Ryouji until Slingshot's death.
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: [[spoiler:One For All was thrusted onto Hikage by a dying Isamu forcing him to swallow some of his blood off his fingers after he had explained everything about OFA & AFO, but Hikage mentioned in Isamu’s chapter he would have accepted anyways if he able to give a choice.]]
* ChargedAttack: His Quirk, Fa Jin, allows the user to charge energy by moving a limb like a pump, and then let all of it loose in one go.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: He was a Quirked boy who grew up in a wealthy Quirkless family, and so he had to hide his ability to be accepted, but as soon as they found about it, they kicked him out on to the streets. The fact the Isamu is homosexual doubles on the parallels between persecution against Quirked individuals and prejudice against the LGBT community.
* DopeSlap: Threw some during the length of his chapter in ''Kyuseishu's Heroic Analysis'', to Ryouji for calling his Quirk “basic enough to neutralize Ashido's Quirk” and to Banjo for being called the “mom friend” of his resistance cell.
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** He was once bullied by Quirkless people because he had a Quirk, and is disgusted to see the opposite thing is now common.
** He's also enraged by Endeavor's actions towards his family. Izuku deciding to destroy the man but leave him alive to live with the consequences causes him to decide to give Izuku Fa Jin.
** While he did not like Quirkless people for the prejudice he was put through most of his life, he was disgusted by Destro's FantasticRacism, saying that the MLA behaved exactly like the monsters that the media framed Quirked individuals as, and was no better than the governments that hunted down and killed Metas in the past.
* FamedInStory:
** {{Defied}} when he was alive. Nobody knows he was the one who defeated Destro because the government of the time did their best to cover up the fact he was responsible.
** [[spoiler:Played straight when Gentle, La Brava, and Compress release a video of their fight showing his victory and his speech against Destro, giving him vindication long after his death, much to his delight and Ryouji's consternation.]]
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Other than the Second Bearer, who was his friend and lover in life, none of the other vestiges like him, and the feeling is mutual.
* HiddenDepths: Before the rise of Quirks caused society to collapse, he learned formal dancing, something he later taught to Izuku. [[spoiler:This is a holder to his time as a member of high society.]]
* InLoveWithYourCarnage: Izuku's speech of how he's going to utterly destroy Endeavor and leave him to live with the consequences of his actions convinces him to give the boy Fa Jin as soon as he can.
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler:The video leak done by Gentle, La Brava, and Compress revealed one additional reason Isamu went to war against the MLA: they murdered Ryouji's [[UnSorcerer Quirkless]] sister and made her daughter an orphan.]]
* LastKiss: [[spoiler:How his husband Ryouji passed One for All to Isamu, before leaving to fight All for One and dying in the process.]]
* NotSoGreatEscape: His death. [[spoiler:All For One almost captured him but narrowly evaded capture that would have resulted in OFA's theft, thanks to timely assistance to Hikage, but in the process was inflicted with mortal wounds that eventually killed him.]]
* TaughtByExperience: He recognizes Tenya is going to try and get revenge on Stain because he's seen several other people do similar after experiencing a personal loss and recognizes the symptoms.
* [[TakeOurWordForIt Take My Word for It]]: Izuku had searched up some of the actions the MLA had inflicted on the Quirkless in Isamu's time during his Analysis chapter, and dubbed it "grim". Isamu called them ''censored'', and the truth is far worse.
* TakeThat: His opinion on Destro's memoirs.
-->It was the most self-serving pack of lies I ever read. I read it for free in a library and I still wanted my money back.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives a beautiful and brutal one to Destro after defeating him:
--> '''Isamu''': You idiot. You absolute buffoon. You wanted free use of Meta Abilities? [[StupidEvil Well, now there’s no chance anyone will let that happen.]] Fuck, even other Metas want the laws to restrict their own abilities! [[{{Irony}} You practically signed the restriction laws yourself!]] All because you got more of a kick out of killing baselines than actually doing something productive.\\
'''Destro''': They deserve it! The damned throwbacks are our enemy! You know this! We fought against the death squads together! They’re the bastards who slew my mother!\\
'''Isamu''': [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse Yeah, you don’t get to pull that card.]] We all lost people we love. But you decided you wanted to be the one leading the mob stoning people to death. My late husband’s sister was a baseline, and she loved her daughter, who has a Meta ability to make grease. She cared for her Meta daughter, and [[WhamLine you fucking killed her]]. And she’s not the only one. Now there’s hundreds of Metas out there who’re orphans, because their families didn’t have any powers. You’d have killed your own mother. You already have.

[[folder:The Fourth Bearer]]
!!Hikage Shinomori
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SpiderSense Danger Sense]]

The Third Bearer's successor. Spent most of his life living in a forest as a hermit, honing One for All. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Mei.
----
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: [[spoiler:One For All was thrusted onto rookie Vigilante Hikage by a dying Isamu forcing him to swallow some of his blood off his fingers after he had explained everything about OFA & AFO, but Hikage mentioned in Isamu’s chapter he would have accepted anyways if he was able to give a choice.]]
** [[spoiler:That being said, in his own segment, [[DefiedTrope he didn't care for a repeat]] so he made sure Banjo was aware he had a choice in the matter, to which Banjo collaborated that he would have rejected it if Hikage had been forceful.]]
* BigDamnHeroes: Manage to pull Isamu away from certain capture from All For One.
* TheChooserOfTheOne: He was the first Bearer to consciously choose someone else, picking Lariat.
* TheComicallySerious: Most of Hikage's interactions end up this way, as it is hard to note when he's being serious or not.
* FourIsDeath: [[spoiler:The Fourth Torchbearer died at the age of forty from RapidAging induced by One for All being in his body for too long without passing it on.]]
* HistoryRepeats: Hikage was inspired to be a hero via American comic books, which was banned in Japan during the Dark Ages. Yoichi is convinced half the reason that ban came to existence is because of [[EvilIsPetty Mugen's petty ass]] trying to snuff out the comics Yoichi loves, and the other Vestiges are in agreement.
* {{Irony}}: Spent most of his life living in a forest as a hermit, yet he's responsible for bonding Izuku to a girl with a strong interest in technology.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: He's the last of the Vigilantes and the only Vestige without a super alias, as he went to exile pretty early in his career.
* NoSocialSkills: Downplayed. Hikage has some social abilities, but it's still rather spotty.
* PropheticNames: His name is essentially "the Fourth's forest, hiding in the shadows", tying into his SelfImposedExile that spanned into much of his adult life.
* RapidAging: [[spoiler:The result of him carrying One for All for too long: the human body cannot sustain a Quirk from an outside source while also having an innate Quirk, as it essentially overclocks the Quirk factors. He died at forty, yet his autopsy befuddled doctors as it projected he was a much older man at death, and his dental records were brought in to help ID him.]]
* {{Retirony}}: Inverted. Him getting One for All and his subsequent exile happened pretty early in his career as a Vigilante, citing it as his seventeenth day on the job.
* ScarsAreForever: [[spoiler:When he turned forty, his health went into decline at an alarming rate, and his body started to split apart, with those cracks still visible on his vestige.]]
* SelfImposedExile: Knowing he couldn't beat All for One's stronger minions yet also cannot get a bunch of heroes/vigilantes together to fight them without getting their Quirks stolen or get labeled as villains by his more high profile lackeys, Hikage had decided to cut himself off from civilization and went roughing it, driven by the singled minded goal to hone One for All for his successor.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: After getting One for All, he stayed in a forest to hone it for eighteen years -- which not only makes him the one that had it the longest before All Might, [[spoiler:it gave the Vestiges the clue about One for All being a DeadlyUpgrade for Quirked people, since he was the only one that didn't die at Mugen's hands]].
* TheSnackIsMoreInteresting: The reason he knows how long his brief stint as a Vigilante was is because he remembers it as the last day he had pizza.
* SpiderSense: His Quirk warns him of any approaching danger, the stronger the pain the greater danger.
** His mother had a similar Quirk but it had the big negative of giving her false positives, which eventually drove the poor woman into social recluse.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Fifth Bearer]]
!!Daigoro Banjo -- Lariat
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[WhipItGood Blackwhip]]

Hikage Shinomori's successor, and the first Bearer to be a professional hero rather than a vigilante. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Tsuyu.
----
* ArbitrarySkepticism: [[spoiler:Averted. He took Hikage’s story of One for All all thanks to All for One being a recurring rumor he kept running into in his field.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Hikage first met Banjo when he was getting accosted by a testy glory hound hero, and Lariat made the unnamed hero back off.
* CoolUncle: In the FamilyOfChoice, he calls dibs this position regarding Izuku.
* DeadpanSnarker: Not quite as irrelevant as Yoichi, but close enough.
* RuleOfCool: This is the reason his supply holders and medical equipment are in bullet-shaped containers on his bandoleer.
* WhipItGood: His Quirk lets him create whips of a black material, which he can use to bring targets close or more around.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Sixth Bearer]]
!!En Rokubou
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SmokeOut Smokescreen]]

Daigoro Banjo's successor and colleague. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Toru.
----
* BigBrotherMentor: His role in Izuku's FamilyOfChoice.
* TheCowl: According to Aizawa, he was a "legend" among Underground Heroes.
* TheGadfly: Fitting for him being Izuku's "big brother", he's prone to making some fun of him in a teasing manner.
* HasTwoMommies: He off-handedly mentions being adopted by a lesbian couple when Izuku decided to make Nana his honorary mom.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: His last name in the manga is unknown. Here, it's "Rokubou" (following the wielders' NumericalThemeNaming, with "roku" being six).
* PunnyName: As pointed out by Momo -- Hero En and Sidekick Kagami. Both their names translates into "Smoke" and "Mirror". En, for his part, was unapologetically giddy at people realizing it.
* TragicKeepsake: [[spoiler:Of the 11 Quirks stolen from All For One during his disastrous theft attempt of One For All, Smoke Manipulation is the Quirk that once was owned by En's sidekick, Kagami, meaning he was also killed along with En.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Seventh Bearer]]
!!Nana Shimura -- Nimbus
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[NotQuiteFlight Float]]

En Rokubou's successor, and All Might's mentor and predecessor. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Ochako.
----
* TheChooserOfTheOne: She was the one that chose Toshinori as her successor and trained him so he could inherit One for All.
* IdenticalStranger: Izuku in ''Kyuseishu'' had noted that Nana strongly resembles Inko, and was greatly disappointed when he went into the family registry and didn’t find a Shimura. Inko later feels the same way after she and Nana had a little heart to heart.
* TheLeader: Despite being the more recent vestige barring Toshinori, she also has the most commanding presence.
* MyGreatestFailure: Having to leave Kotaro was this for her, and she feels the pain of it when Izuku learns her son died and her grandson killed the rest of his family and is currently being manipulated by All for One. Learning her son's anger over her leaving led to him becoming a domestic abuser did ''not'' help.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: Her superhero name was unknown in the manga. Here, it's "Nimbus".
* ParentalSubstitute: Zigzagged. More like "Parental Assistant". She mentioned taking the role of Izuku's mom if Inko weren't both alive and doing such a good job. En encourages her to do so, since nobody says that Izuku can't have two mothers, and Inko is happy to share the role with Nana.
** She played this straight with Toshinori, as he never met his actual parents and saw in Nana the closest thing he had to a mother.
* SmurfettePrinciple: Out of nine Torchbearers, she's the only female.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Her decision to leave her son up for adoption backfired massively, leading to disastrous results in the present.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Eighth Bearer]]
!!Toshinori Yagi -- All Might
!!!'''Quirk:''' Quirkless (formerly One for All) [[spoiler:-> Superpower[[note]]consists of Stockpile, Fa Jin, Shock Absorption, Super Regeneration, Blood Bank, Survivor, Bonding[[/note]]]]

Japan's #1 hero, UA's Heroics Course Teacher, Nana Shimura's successor, and the only of Izuku's predecessors who's still alive. His vestige hasn't fully formed, either because All Might still has some embers of One for All, he's still alive, or both. Responsible for Izuku's bond with Melissa Shield.
----
* AntiMentor: Although All Might means well, the vestiges point out that his advice is ''hilariously'' bad.
** Though they do admit that the only reason ''they're'' of any help is that they've been through One for All activating in each new holder multiple times, so they know how to help. Without that, they've admitted to being no better than All Might when it came to figuring out how to use One for All themselves.
** In all fairness for All Might, Izuku is his first ever student in his decades of heroism, so his bad teaching is more a result of him being very green in teaching, and has improved as an educator as time went on.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "I AM HERE!". {{Lampshaded}} by Yoichi, who jokes that All Might's first sentence when his vestige fully forms will be "I am here, in your head!".
* TheChooserOfTheOne: He was the one who picked Izuku as his successor, and trained him so he could get the body he needed to handle One for All.
* EleventhHourSuperpower: [[spoiler:Thanks to his stronger link to Izuku and the past Torchbearers, All Might manages to summon the full strength of One for All (including the previous Torchbearers' Quirks) when he unleashes the United States of Smash on All for One.]]
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: [[spoiler:Izuku gives All Might part of One for All's power, as well as the copies of a few Quirks.]]
* HesBack: While passing One for All to Izuku means he's lost a good part of his power, [[spoiler:Eri accidentally using her Quirk on him restores him to his prime. While he still lost One For All as predicted, Izuku created a gestalt Quirk later dubbed Superpower for Toshinori to fight, though he would still be nowhere near the fighter he was with OFA.]]
* HonoraryUncle: To Melissa Shield, the daughter of his first sidekick, David Shield.
* LargeHam: His hero persona acts like this.
* LikeASonToMe: How he sees Izuku, a feeling Izuku reciprocates.
* MindlinkMates: [[spoiler:Izuku snuck Bonding into the gestalt Quirk he made for Toshinori, and he immediately connects Inko to it at Lv. 1 when she came to his line of sight.]]
* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: After Izuku mimics his "Eat this!" down to the facial expression, Toshinori lampshades that he's never going to live that down.
* OnlySaneMan: Acts as this to Nezu during Izuku's Quirk counseling session.
* ParentalSubstitute: Acts as Izuku's surrogate father-figure, with him calling Izuku his son while Izuku calls him his dad.
* SecondLove: He becomes this to Inko.
* ShipTease: Begins to have some of this with Inko after he shares the secret of One for All with her. [[spoiler:Upgrades to a relationship during the I-Expo Arc.]]
* SnarkToSnarkCombat: Briefly engages in this with All For One during Kamino.
--> '''All For One:''' So, you and your vaunted successor require little girls to fight your battles for you, All Might?\\
'''All Might:''' Well, we needed someone with the same maturity as ''your'' apprentice, Mugen, but there would be ethical problems associated with hiring preschoolers.
* SuperiorSuccessor: He was the one to finally inflict a long term defeat on All for One and break his control over Japan's underworld. Unfortunately, it was not as thorough as he had hoped.
* TheVoiceless: His vestige can't talk yet. Izuku and the vestiges eventually realize it's because he's still alive. Needless to say, none of them is in a hurry for it to change.
** He's ''finally'' able to when Izuku and Melissa's Bond reaches level 2. [[BrickJoke Sure enough]], one of his first lines after realizing that is "I am here, in your heads."

!!Team Zero
[[folder:Hitoshi Marubashi]]
!!Hitoshi Marubashi -- Zero
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[ThePowerOfLove Bonding]]

The original owner of the Bonding Quirk.
----
* BabiesEverAfter: After surviving their encounter with All for One, Hitoshi and Shizuku had at least one descendent, a girl, whose grandchild would be Manami Aiba, the hacker vigilante La Brava.
* LaResistance: He and Shizuku joined one shortly after they married; first fighting government kill squads, then fighting All for One.
* MagikarpPower: Bonding starts out weak, but by growing his love with another person, his Quirk can do amazing things at later stages.
* MeaningfulName: Hitoshi is nicknamed Zero due to having Maru in his name which symbolizes how he is one of the two predecessors to Yoichi, the first wielder of One for All.
* NotWorthKilling: [[spoiler:All for One cites this as his reason for leaving Hitoshi alive after taking his Quirk.]]
* ThePowerOfLove: His Quirk allows him and a bonded partner to become more powerful from the love they have for each other.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: His role in the story is minimal, but his Quirk merging with Yoichi's is why One for All reached singularity earlier than when the vestiges expected, making it the biggest [[ForWantOfANail nail]] in the story.
* TogetherInDeath: [[spoiler:The vestige version of him lets himself fade away when the Quirks fuse, not wanting to remain without his wife.]] Presumably the case with his real self as well.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Shizuku Kendai]]
!!Shizuku Kendai -- Zero
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[SuperStrength Power Stockpile]]

The original owner of the Stockpile Quirk.
----
* BabiesEverAfter: After surviving their encounter with All for One, Hitoshi and Shizuku had at least one descendant, a girl, whose grandchild would be Manami Aiba, the hacker vigilante La Brava.
* DangerousPhlebotinumInteraction: Turned out Power Stockpile didn't play nice while in All For One, and the reason why AFO imparted it into Yoichi as soon as he was able was because it was trying to absorb the All For One Quirk.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:{{Subverted}}. Shizuku is seemingly killed when All for One impales her and steals her Quirk, but the final level of Bonding heals her injuries.]]
* LaResistance: She and Hitoshi joined a group shortly after their marriage; first to fight government Anti-Quirk kill squads, then to fight All for One.
* MeaningfulName: Shizuku is spelled with the kanji for zero, symbolizing how she is one of the two predecessors to Yoichi, the first wielder of One for All.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Her role in the story is minimal, but her Quirk merging with Yoichi's is the reason One for All exists.
* SuperStrength: Her Quirk allows her to become stronger over time.
* TogetherInDeath: [[spoiler:The vestige version of Kendai lets herself fade away when the Quirks fuse with Yoichi's into One for All, not wanting to remain without her husband.]] Presumably the case with her real self as well.

!!Civilians
[[folder:Inko Midoriya]]
!!Inko Midoriya
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[MindOverMatter Attraction of Small Objects]][[labelnote:*]]Unofficial Name[[/labelnote]]

Izuku's mother, from whom he inherited his green hair, proneness to tear up and penchant for mumble-storming when nervous. Having taken care of Izuku on her own for her entire life, she now sees as her son grows into a hero.
------
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: She can be this a bit for Izuku, as shown when she meets Ochako's parents.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: [[spoiler:Reaching Level 3 in her bond with Toshinori grants her increased strength and gives her Quirk a massive boost.]]
* FaintInShock: [[spoiler:Inko faints soon after she is able to see Nana's Vestige, though at least manages to say hello to Nana before she conked out.]]
* GoodParents: She was Izuku's only parent for most of his life, and it is evident she did a wonderful job.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: The ability to manipulate small objects might seem weak, but as Toshinori discovered, the human body has enough of them that she can do some serious damage if she's angry.
* InTheBlood: Izuku inherited his mumble storms and OcularGushers from her.
* MamaBear: Toshinori finds out the hard way that when she's angry, Inko tends to use her Quirk unconsciously and that quite a few bones qualify as "small objects" to said Quirk.
* MindlinkMates: [[spoiler:With Toshinori, thanks to Izuku sneaking in Bonding when he made a gestalt Quirk for Toshinori so All Might could still fight.]]
* OcularGushers: She can cry so hard that she can faint from dehydration. She later triggers I-Island's flood warning system just from crying when All Might asks her out.
* OpenMindedParent: She has no problems when she learns the truth about One for All, and gladly does her best to support her son.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: She was the only true support Izuku had for most of his life. Even after Izuku finds friends and extra family in the form of the Vestiges, she's still Izuku's main pillar, and she approves of Nana taking on the role of step-mom in the Vestige "family".
* SharedFamilyQuirks: She sometimes enters into mutter storms just like her son does, and both are rather emotional and easily moved to tears.
* ShipTease: Has something with Toshinori after he reveals the truth of One for All to her. [[spoiler:Upgrades to a relationship during the I-Expo Arc.]]

[[folder:Eri]]
!!Eri
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[DevolutionDevice Rewind]]

A child Izuku meets during his first patrol as part of the Nighteye Agency. She turns out to be the test subject of a Yakuza boss known as Overhaul.
----
* HundredPercentAdorationRating:
** Among the students of class 1-A and their families, absolutely everyone adores Eri. At one point, Tokoyami lampshades that she's going to be incredibly spoiled as she grows up.
** Pretty much everyone who meets her ends up adoring her as well. Gang Orca is willing to take photos of Eri as payment for Tsuyu doing a work study with him, and Mirko decides to stick around at U.A. for a while after Eri asks her.
** This is PlayedStraight after Izuku creates a social media account. Pictures and videos of Eri interacting with her family, other students and Pro Heroes are beloved by all those who follow Izuku online. In fact, they are so liked, they completely obscure the MLA's slander campaign against him.
* AbusiveParents: Overhaul is not her actual father (more like a stepuncle), but he was the one "taking care" of her before Eri met Izuku -- in actuality, using her as the source of a bullet-administered drug that can erase Quirks.
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: She shows up during the spring internship, rather than the autumn internship.
* AnimalMotifs: In this story she is associated with narwhals (and occasionally unicorns), mostly due to her singular horn present on her left temple.
* ForWantOfANail: She escaped in the spring rather than the fall before meeting Izuku. [[spoiler:This got Overhaul jailed faster and subsequently killed, allowed her to stay more active in the plot, as well as sinking the production of the Quirk-Erasing Drug, both the perfected version and more of it overall.]]
* HappilyAdopted: With the Ennead.
* HiddenDepths: Eri might be a child, but she spent several years with the Yakuza. She is more than capable of dropping a PrecisionFStrike.
* NervesOfSteel: Eri's trauma made her nearly immune to otherwise nightmarish situations, like when the dinossaurs from Kuraudo Island go off control, or when Nine threateans her and the Shimano brothers, she doesn't show an ounce of fear while standing up against the villain.
* PoweredByAForsakenChild: Overhaul was planning to use her as the source of a Quirk-erasing drug. Thankfully, his early defeat scuttled it.
* PrecisionFStrike: When Nine attacks her and her two new friends, Mahoro and Katsuma, Eri glares at him and tells him he's fucked.
* SemanticSuperpower: Her power lets her "rewind" living beings to a previous state. It is shown when she accidentally uses her power on a half-eaten orange: it begins to return to its previous uneaten state, then loses its ripeness, reverts back to a blossom and disappears.
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Her existence and power cause Nighteye to realize the future ''can'' be changed, allowing him to discover how to help Endeavor fix his problems -- and accidentally trip the League of Villains' plans.]]
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Apples, like in canon.
* TraumaButton: Tokoyami accidentally triggers her due to his head resembling the plague masks that Overhaul and his men wore. Dark Shadow's similarity to Blackwhip helps her overcome that fear.
** [[spoiler:Kota accidentally triggers her when he vents to her his hatred of heroes, giving her flashbacks to Overhaul's own opinions, and took his words to mean that she was better off in Overhaul's "care".]]

[[folder:Hisashi Midoriya]]
!!Hisashi Midoriya
!!! '''Quirk:''' [[PlayingWithFire Fire Breath]]

Izuku's father, who works in the United States and from whom he inherited his freckles and curly hair.
----
* BerserkButton: Learning about [[spoiler:his cousin Enji's [[TheChainOfHarm abuse of his family]]]] causes him to roar in fury, resulting in him breathing fire so hard that it can be seen through a door's lines for five straight minutes.
* BreakingTheCycleOfBadParenting: The reason why he moved to live to America and divorced Inko.
* CluelessChickMagnet: When Hisashi shows a picture of his female coworkers looking longingly at him to [[spoiler:his cousin Endeavor]], the latter asks if he's dating anyone. As any typical Harem protagonist would answer, he answers no, listing his divorcee and deadbeat dad status, though at least he is more justified than most to not see it. [[spoiler:He's made aware of it during his call to Izuku.]]
* DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou: Hisashi stays out of his son's life because he himself had a poor childhood with abusive caretakers that left him with anger issues and a lasting fear that he would be abusive to Izuku in turn. When asked by Momo's parents, who are his bosses, why he doesn't explain this to Izuku, he explains he fears Izuku would just interpret it as him trying to ride his coattails now that he is so successful.
* DamnedByFaintPraise: Outright drops the name of the trope when Izuku says he didn't treat his son the same way Endeavor treated Shoto.
-->'''Hisashi:''' Faintest praise I've ever been damned by.
* FieryRedhead: {{Deconstructed}}. Due to his childhood, he's got anger issues, which makes it hard for him to control his temper, and chose to divorce Inko and leave his family before he did something he would regret.
* {{Foil}}: To Endeavor[[spoiler:, his cousin]].
** Both men are {{Fiery Redhead}}s with Quirks that let them emit fire, have terrible tempers and married gentle women. However, while Hisashi married Inko for love, Endeavor (mostly) married Rei for the sake of having a child with a Quirk combining theirs.
** Endeavor eventually became abusive towards his family, but Hisashi decided to leave Inko and Izuku before he could end up doing that, supporting them financially from afar.
** Endeavor seeks to become the strongest hero, while Hisashi remains a subordinate to his bosses and sends most of the money he earns to Inko and Izuku.
** Endeavor is trying to vicariously live the idea of becoming Japan's Number One Hero through his son Shoto, while Hisashi knows that trying to return to Izuku's life now that he's famous would look very suspect.
** Endeavor has a [[UnknownRival one-sided rivalry]] with All Might, but Hisashi is happy to learn his son has taken the hero as his role model and that his ex-wife is dating him.
* ForensicAccounting: It's his job to make sure the Yaoyorozu's group's finances are in order and to report and investigate suspicious transactions to his bosses. He's saved Momo's parents millions in preventing fraud and embezzlement. He's even managed to crack Nezu's finances.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: PlayedForLaughs. WordOfGod describes him as the harem protagonist of his own spin-off story, complete with five beautiful co-workers in love with him, and Hisashi being completely oblivious to it. At least until Izuku and his girlfriends point out and the co-workers flat out admit it to his face, leaving him flabbergasted.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: He's glad to learn that All Might has been able to step in as Izuku's father and Inko's lover.
* LikeFatherLikeSon:
** He's clearly as intelligent as his son, applying that to become one of Japan's best forensic accountants.
** [[spoiler:Turns out he's just as good at [[ChickMagnet catching female attention]] as Izuku. And just as bad at [[ObliviousToLove missing it]] without a Quirk telling him about it.]]

* {{Foil}}: To Sir Nighteye.
** Both were All Might's sidekick at one point, though where Nighteye used his Quirk and training to fight, David used his brilliance to create gadgets for him and All Might to use.
** Both were Toshinori's best friends. After All Might's crippling fight against All for One, Nighteye had a serious falling out with All Might, but David maintained his friendship with the hero.
** Lastly, both wanted to restore the Symbol of Peace but went about it in opposite ways. David developed a device that could hopefully allow All Might to function at his prime again while Nighteye instead focused on training up a successor for All Might.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: David tried so hard to bring All Might back to his prime because he didn't know about the true nature of One for All. Once he learns about it and Toshinori's successor, he realizes how foolish his actions were.
* MustMakeAmends: He comes to regret his actions in setting up the heist of the Quirk amplifier after learning that Toshinori is settling in to retirement from heroism and enjoying his new position as a teacher and surrogate father, and takes steps to stop it and deal with the fallout: turning in his assistant when he discovers that Sam was more interested in selling the device for profit, setting up security measures to stop Wolfram's group from infiltrating I-Island, and even calling in Star and Stripe to act as security.
* ParentsAsPeople: Melissa is horrified to learn what David would have been willing to do if he hadn't found out about One for All.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He only wanted to help his best friend deal with his injured body and fading power based on [[LockedOutOfTheLoop his own understanding]] of the situation, but after coming to his senses it's clear he regrets how far he was willing to take it, and Melissa and Toshinori are both horrified and angry that he would resort to villainy even for such a reason.

All For One's student and theoretically leader of the League of Villains. Groomed by All For One to be his successor, Tomura seeks to destroy All Might and the Hero-obsessed society he helps to protect. His Quirk, "Decay", allows him to destroy anything he touches provided all five of his fingers are in contact with the object.
----
* AdaptationalWimp: Slightly. During USJ, Tomura ends up losing his right pinky. While it is restored, there is now a chance for Decay to not work with that hand.
* ArchEnemy: To Izuku, something that the hero only realized after noticing that Danger Sense acts louder when the villain is around.
* BreakThemByTalking: How Tomura manages to gain Machia's loyalty after a whole month of fighting the behemoth and failing: He points out that Machia can either join him and work together to avenge All for One, or Tomura can kill the giant and try his luck with what is left of the league. Machia complies.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Tends to frame everything in terms of video games.
* EvilCounterpart: Just like Izuku is All Might's successor, he is All for One's successor, and is even set to receive the original Quirk, much like Izuku received One for All. [[spoiler:He even was a Quirkless boy with dreams to be a hero, and repeatedly abused because of it before receiving Decay.]]
* FatSlob: {{Inverted}}, he's a skinny slob. [[spoiler:In chapter 43, the Diagnosis Quirk that Izuku stole from All For One reveals that Tomura has a poor diet, that Decay is the source of his constant itching, and that his poor hygiene only makes the itching worse.]]
* {{Fingore}}: He loses his right hand pinky during the USJ incident when Snipe shoots him. Kurogiri brings it back with them and the Doctor restores it, but it now has a chance (between ten and twenty-five percent) of not working with Decay.
* IResembleThatRemark: His reaction to Izuku mentioning how he fled crying and throwing a tantrum like a toddler… is to throw a tantrum and destroy half of Kurogiri's bar.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: When he recruits the Shie Hassaikai, he states he doesn't know who killed Overhaul because All for One did not inform him about it.
* RedemptionRejection: In their second meeting, Izuku tries to offer Tomura the chance to leave All for One behind and quit being a villain, only for Tomura to reject him out of hand, stating Izuku only bothered because he's such a threat.
* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:Tomura was born Quirkless, but All for One forcefully gave him Decay to manipulate him into using it on his family as part of a long-term plan to forcibly steal One For All back.]]
* YouRemindMeOfX:
** Nana Shimura mentions his tantrums remind her of someone -- her son. This leads to the discovery that Tomura is Nana's grandson.
** All for One is reminded of his brother Yoichi when Tomura frames things in video game terms.

Japan's first supervillain, he was born when the Era of Quirks began, with a Quirk that allowed him to take Quirks from other people and either use them himself or give them to others. He was able to use this to become Japan's shadow dictator, but as time passed the Heroes slowly managed to turn it around, with All Might ending his rule with a brutal fight that greatly injured the Hero and almost killed the villain.\\\

Having managed to survive the fight, All for One is now in hiding, waiting for the right time to return to the world, and is using Tomura Shigaraki -- the grandson of his former enemy Nana Shimura -- as his tool to destroy All Might and bring down the Hero system, while he attempts to take One for All back.
----
* ArchEnemy: To One for All's Torchbearers. He's killed six of them (the first being his own brother) and gravely injured All Might during their battle, to the point where he was forced to go search for his successor.
* AllForNothing: [[spoiler:His machinations to steal Overhaul, Search, and One for All end up backfiring horrendously in one fell swoop when the latter's latest bearer steals the other two.]]
* {{Angrish}}: What he devolves into [[spoiler:as he realizes All Might achieved the means to restore his health, while he's still a disfigured mess]].
* BigBad: He was Japan's (and possibly the world's) first supervillain, and even in his current diminished capacity he remains so.
* CainAndAbel: He's the Cain to Yoichi's Abel. He even killed him with his own hands.
* CreateYourOwnHero: He decided to give a Quirk to his justice-loving Quirkless younger brother in an attempt to make him fold (in fairness, Yoichi remarked that it worked up till then). He certainly didn't expect it would merge with the Quirk his brother actually had, much less that it would begin a legacy of heroes that would oppose him and his plans.
* DarkLordOnLifeSupport: The injuries he sustained during the fight with All Might 5 years ago forces him to use a life support system 24/7.
* DidntSeeThatComing:
** He clearly didn't expect that his brother had a Quirk, or that the Stockpile Quirk he gave him would merge with it, creating One for All.
** [[spoiler:Izuku knowing his real name throws him off ''hard''. The HoistByHisOwnPetard from his attempt to steal One for All leaves him terrified.]]
** [[spoiler:All Might throwing off all of his attempts at psychological warfare, then finding out that All Might isn't severely wounded anymore, ends up sending the sociopath into an apoplectic fury.]]
* DisabledInTheAdaptation:
** [[spoiler:While trying to take Overhaul's Quirk, Overhaul cripples Mugen's hands to the point that his [[HealingFactor Super Regeneration]] Quirk is not capable of restoring him. He claims it's only a setback, though.]]
** [[spoiler:Due to All Might being able to harness Izuku's One For All, he changes up his United States of Smash enough to critically damage All For One's spine to the point that Super Regeneration can't properly heal it and leave him a quadriplegic.[[labelnote:*]]Via a fully charged Laser Disc severing his spine and cauterizing the wound, preventing Super Regeneration from being capable of doing anything[[/labelnote]]]]
* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: According to Yoichi, he liked how "[[Literature/TheThreeMusketeers One for all and all for one]]" sounded, but he clearly never understood [[TrueCompanions the point of the sentence]].
* EntitledToHaveYou: He believes that One for All belongs with him, and plots to steal it from Izuku.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: When All for One stole Bond, he derided it as giving its user the ability to become someone's soulmate, ignoring how it boosted the power of both Hitoshi and Shizuku.
* EvilIsPetty: The various holders of One for All agree that he is absolutely petty enough to ban all forms of superhero media for the sole purpose of destroying his brother's favorite heroes.
* EvilMentor: Acts as this to Tomura.
* FailedASpotCheck: All For One makes a comment that he doesn't even remember what most of his stolen Quirks do. This should be a major red flag to him due to him having an [[PhotographicMemory eidetic memory Quirk]]. He doesn't notice.
* FlatWhat: All Might revealing that he already knows Tomura is Tenko Shimura results in this reaction.
* GreaterScopeVillain: He was Japan's ShadowDictator until All Might put an end to his empire. He's currently Tomura's backer.
* {{Greed}}: While Mugen wants to become immortal and rule the world forever, he explicitly only wants to do so in order to keep finding/creating new Quirks and steal them forever.
** According to Quirk Understanding, he currently possesses 1648 different Quirks.
* HeadCrushing: How he killed Yoichi.
* HeroKiller: Being so long lived, likely hundreds of heroes and heroic vigilantes are dead by his hands, the ones we know about are most of the Torchbearers of OFA sans the Fourth and En's sidekick Kagami.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Oh, let us count the ways…
** The first instance is his role in the creation of One for All, the Quirk whose Bearers have been opposing him for decades.
** He stole Bond from Marubashi just to be a dick. Bond merged with Power Stockpile, causing the future One for All to reach singularity sooner and allowing Izuku to forge the Ennead.
** [[spoiler:His theft of Overhaul leaves him unable to actually use it, since Chisaki fought back and mangled AFO's hands to the point Super Regeneration couldn't return them to normal.]]
** [[spoiler:His attempt to steal One for All from Izuku ends up causing him to lose thirty-four Quirks, eleven of which are outright stolen by Izuku -- including Search and Overhaul.]]
*** [[spoiler:Losing Diagnosis also causes him plenty of trouble, because, while he can use Neural Rewrite to heal the injury that left him quadriplegic, he doesn't know how to do it without Diagnosis.]]
** [[spoiler:During his rematch with All Might, most of his Quirks are impossible to use due to his disabilities, and out of the few that could actually help him, several are useless because he did not take the time to train them and chose to go for easier-to-use Quirks -- which are now useless because of the aforementioned disabilities.]]
** [[spoiler:All For One tries to exploit the connection he has to One for All to spy on the current wielder. When Izuku takes Quirk Understanding, it allows him to learn information about all of All for One's stolen Quirks, and he finds out later that he can use the connection to destroy more Quirk vestiges.]]
* HorrifyingTheHorror: [[spoiler:Izuku, the Ennead and the Torchbearers outright stealing eleven Quirks from him -- including several very powerful ones, such as ''Overhaul'' -- in addition to deleting twenty-three Quirks they couldn't steal, leaves him completely terrified and afraid for his life, stopping the attempted Quirk theft before either [[LongLived Life Force]] or the Quirk All For One were deleted.]]
* HumiliationConga: Things hardly if ever go his way since the Sports Festival. First, Izuku publicly calls out his apprentice as a tantrum-throwing brat. Then, [[spoiler:his attempt to steal Overhaul results in the villain Overhaul mangling his arms to prevent him from using the Quirk at all, much less fix himself. After ''that'', though the League succeeds in kidnapping Izuku, they lose more than half of their members in the process, and then his attempt to steal One for All results in him losing over thirty Quirks, with nearly half of them (including Search and Overhaul) being absorbed into One for All, causing it to become even more powerful. To cap it all off, the rescue mission results in all but three members of the League being captured or defecting and All Might paralyzing him while All for One is unable to break him due to Eri healing him]]. All for One is only able to seethe at his circumstances by the end of it.
** [[spoiler:Oh, and for extra salt in the wound, when Izuku visited Tartarus to meet the Winged Nomu, Yoichi shows up in his cell just to BM him with Fortnite dances, as En said he would.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: He's this all the way down to his Quirk.
* LongLived: He stole a Quirk that makes him this. He's been alive for over two centuries already.
* TheManBehindTheMan: As it turns out, he was the main funder of the MLA terrorist campaigns when they debuted, no doubt in order to create chaos enough for his criminal empire to rise from the shadows.
* MeaningfulName:
** His birth name, Mugen, means "infinity", reflecting both his LongLived status and the fact that he can take and use every Quirk in the world.
** His chosen villain (and Quirk) name, All For One, reflects his ItsAllAboutMe attitude: he sees people as things that should serve him, and all Quirks as things only to be used by him.
* MundaneUtility: He uses one of the Quirks he stole to watch television even though he's blind.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: As of the most recent chapters in canon, his real name is unknown. Here, his given name is [[MeaningfulName Mugen Shigaraki]].
* NotSoAboveItAll: He uses one of the Quirks he's stolen, Imposing Theme, to give himself a {{Leitmotif}}.
* NearVillainVictory: In Isamu's chapter of ''Kyuseishu's Heroic Analysis'', he had OFA in the palm of his hands but Isamu was able to have OFA stay out of Mugen's grasp thanks to the timely rescue from Hikage, the would-be Fourth Torchbearer.
* {{Sadist}}: He's a self-admitted sadist who enjoys tormenting others. This includes intentionally giving Aoyama Navel Laser, knowing that he wouldn't be able to completely control it and that it's potentially fatal to the holder if they're not careful.
* SunkCostFallacy: Mugen wants One For All so badly that, even after [[spoiler:attempting to steal it from Izuku leads to him losing 34 Quirks and Izuku gaining Search and Overhaul, he still keeps Izuku alive to get One For All. Mugen hopes Tomura's hatred will be able to retake One for All anyway, even though he has to work against ''17'' strong wills, but if that doesn't work, he will deem it too much trouble and have One for All die with its current user]].
* UnderestimatingBadassery: He makes this mistake when dealing with Bonding [[spoiler:and Izuku]].
** He derides the former as a weak Quirk that lets one find their soulmate -- ignoring its true power of making the bearer and their mate stronger. One for All made Izuku powerful, but Bonding not only granted him even more power, it ensured his girlfriends would become strong enough to stand next to him.
** He thinks [[spoiler:stealing One for All from Izuku will be easy. See HoistByHisOwnPetard above for how ''that'' worked out]].
* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:Oh, boy. Where to begin? Not only he fails to steal One for All during the Kamino arc, but he also loses 34 Quirks in the process (23 destroyed, 11 stolen). His two master moves, to reveal that Nana Shimura's grandson is his apprentice and break All Might's spirit, and expose his weakened state to the world fall flat on his face because first, All Might found out about Tenko's fate after the USJ, and second, because Eri rewinded All Might over a decade, meaning even after deflating in front the cameras, he still looks very healthy, which causes Mugen to throw a tantrum that would put Tomura's to shame. And finally, by the end of the fight, he is quadriplegic and has to rely on [[PsychoticManchild Tomura]] and his last two League members rescue him eventually. Good luck with that.]]

A demented 17-year-old girl that has a large body count behind herself, she ends up stalking Izuku after starting to crush on him from seeing him bleed during the Sports Festival. She ends up bonding with Izuku after he expresses his opinion that Quirks are not villainous -- only for him to quickly sever the bond when he realizes her true personality.\\\

Her Quirk, "Transform", allows her to create a layer of goop around herself that lets her disguise herself as another person, but this requires her to ingest blood from that person, and it only lasts for a time that depends on how much blood she drank. [[spoiler:If she concentrates, she can also replicate the person's Quirk.]]
----
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Himiko makes her debut during the spring internships instead of after their completion.
* AlasPoorVillain: After she gets a very thorough reality check [[spoiler:due to her accidentally connecting to the Ennead's bonding]] where she is not only forced to see things from other people's point of view, but she also realizes that Izuku and the girls want to help her but also want to keep her away from them, Toga runs away from the Kamino fight and hides away to cry.
* BadPowersBadPeople: Izuku calls her out on how her actions, not her [[BloodMagic Quirk]], make her a monster.
* BaitAndSwitch: Himiko protests the idea of Izuku being turned into her limbless blood bag/body pillow... but only because he couldn't hug her if he had no arms.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Himiko wanted to connect with Izuku with Bonding even after he snapped the link. [[spoiler:Transforming into Izuku allows her to fool Bonding into thinking she was Izuku, reconnecting her to the network... and suddenly forcing her to experience ''and'' understand the Ennead's emotions, giving her a hard reality check on the scope of her actions.]]
* BloodLust: She crushes on Izuku when she sees him bleeding in the aftermath of the Sports Festival fight with Shoto.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: To her, the best way to show her love for someone is killing them and attempt to become them.
* DisproportionateRetribution: She will kill people for the flimsiest reasons (if any). The girl she disguises herself as to approach Izuku? She killed her because she was ([[UnreliableNarrator according to her]]) a bitch.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Izuku makes it clear while talking to her, and Sir Nighteye later, that while what Himiko went through was terrible, it still doesn't remotely justify her becoming a SerialKiller. Later when Himiko [[spoiler:briefly reconnects with the Ennead]], she learns that all of them pity her for what she went through, including being starved of the blood she needs, but none of them think it justifies her "knifing random people in an alley".
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler:Using her Quirk to turn into Izuku ends up causing her to connect to the Ennead's mental link -- which overwhelms her as she realizes the depths of everyone's feelings, causing her to break down mentally and run away.]]
* IRejectYourReality: No matter what other people tell her, she remains convinced that Izuku loves her and wants her to show her love (by killing him). [[spoiler:Her using her Quirk to change into Izuku and "reconnecting" to the Bonding Quirk, the Ennead hits her with enough of a ''proper'' reality check that she retreats and breaks down into a sobbing wreck.]]
* KillAndReplace: She thinks this is the ultimate expression of her love -- drinking so much blood out of someone that she will actually become that person. She wants to do that to Izuku.
* LoopholeAbuse: An accidental variation. [[spoiler:Turning into Izuku after having previously formed a temporary bond with him, briefly tricks Bonding into thinking she ''is'' Izuku and lets her connect with the Ennead.]]
* MindlinkMates: She was this with Izuku for all of forty-five seconds before he realized she was a psychopathic SerialKiller and snapped the bond. Unfortunately, this was enough to let her know that he's bonded with other girls. [[spoiler:When she uses her Quirk to change into him during Chapter 44, she "reconnects" at level 1. The sudden sensation of feeling multiple foreign emotions overwhelms her.]]
* SerialKiller: She's got a ''long'' string of bodies behind her, and she doesn't even care about it.
* StalkerWithACrush: She becomes this to Izuku -- much to his disgust.
* StealthExpert: She's good enough that it doesn't trigger Danger Sense even though she wants to kill Izuku.
* SympathyForTheDevil: The entirety of the Ennead pities Himiko for her DarkAndTroubledPast and wants her to receive psychiatric help, even if they don't want her anywhere near them given that she's still a SerialKiller who's fixated on Izuku.
* TermsOfEndangerment: She calls Izuku "Izu-kun" and "Izuku-chan" after their bond forms and snaps. Izuku tells her she doesn't get to call him like the other girls do, but she doesn't care.
* ThisCannotBe: The above LoopholeAbuse causes Himiko to learn how the Ennead view her. The result shocks her so badly that she flees the battle to find a place where she can curl up and cry.
--> Toga's world was torn to shreds and rebuilt when she finally gave into her urges and drank from Saito. Now, it started reeling once again as she clearly saw into the lives of other people, how their actions changed because of her, the fear and caution they felt. They were real people. They thought she was a real person. They wanted what was best for her. And they didn't want her in their lives.
* VampiricDraining: From his temporary bond with her, Izuku learns that Himiko genuinely needs to drink blood for sustenance.
* {{Yandere}}: Her idea of showing her love is to kill them and attempt to become them.

!!!'''Quirk:''' [[PlayingWithFire Blueflame]]

Endeavor's oldest child that has a grudge against his father after believing that the man cast him aside after his younger brother, who had the best Quirk of his siblings, was born.
----
* AllForNothing: His plans to ruin his father and brother go down the drain after Endeavor admits to his past mistakes publicly.
* CainAndAbel: He wants to kill his youngest brother, Shoto, because he thinks the latter had the life that was denied to him.
** It also would not be the first attempt at Shoto's life, having [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior nearly attacked him with full intent to maim his littlest brother when Shoto was a]] ''[[WouldHurtAChild baby]]''.
* FirstPersonSnarker: He somehow is snarkier on his inner monologue than out loud:
--> '''Dabi''': Dabi looked around at his group, the “Vanguard Action Squad”, as their raisin-skinned leader called them. Honestly, he wouldn’t trust most of them with a ball of string, but if this succeeded, they would serve their purpose. And if they didn’t, fuck it, he’d burnt a forest down and survived once, he could do it again.
* GlassCannon: Blueflame gives him incredible offensive power, but not only does he not have particularly good defense, he's also weak to his own Quirk, having inherited his mother's cold resistance and frail constitution, and overuse of his Quirk has only made this problem worse. Izuku, via Diagnosis, describes his current state perfectly:
-->''Dabi in particular, was held together with chewing gum and a wish.''
* HypocrisyNod: He internally comments that he probably shouldn't make remarks about Tomura's crusty looks, given his own appearance.
* IRejectYourReality: After hearing what happened to his mother and Shoto, he quickly denies what happened to them was that bad and still believes that he is justified in his crimes and quest for vengeance.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Only joined the League of Villains to further his quest to destroy his father.
* VillainousBreakdown: Dabi throws a screaming fit when his plans to ruin his father's reputation are destroyed by the man owning up to his actions in a press conference, especially because a number of people praised Endeavor for coming clean and seeking to atone.

[[folder:Canopy]]
!!Hekiji Tengai
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[BarrierWarrior Barrier]]

One half of Overhaul's Spear and Shield combo, and extremely loyal to the man, he joined the League of Villains to avenge his captured, later killed, leader.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: PlayedWith. While he still has the same name as his canon counterpart, here he goes by the codename Canopy rather than his given name like in canon.
* AscendedExtra: In canon he was a member of a QuirkyMinibossSquad that was defeated in their first appearance. Here he is the last man standing of the organization and one of the key members of the League of Villains.
* BarrierWarrior: His Quirk lets him create solid barriers that are difficult to break through.
* DramaticIrony: He joined the League to avenge Overhaul, not knowing that the true leader of the League, All for One, was the man that killed Overhaul.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: He joined to avenge Overhaul and cares nothing for Shigaraki and his goals.
* SoleSurvivor: By the end of the Hideout Raid Arc, he is the only member of the Shie Hassaikai that wasn't killed, captured by heroes, or defected.
* StoppedCaring: After Overhaul's death he no longer cares about keeping his partner Rappa in line.
* StoneWall: His barriers are powerful, but he doesn't have much offensive ability himself.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Rapper]]
!!Kendo Rappa
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[RapidFireFisticuffs Strongarm]]

The other half of Overhaul's Spear and Shield combo, and not loyal to the man at all. Joined the League of Villains after the fall of the Shie Hassaikai solely to find someone who could give him a good fight.
----
* AntiVillain: Rappa only cares about fighting. He only joined Overhaul in hopes to defeat him one day, and only joined the League in hopes to fight Izuku, who defeated Overhaul. After his fight against Izuku, and later his defeat at the hands of Kirishima, Tetsutetsu and Akira at the Summer Training camp, not only he willingly surrenders, he also gives up all information he has about the League and what is left of the Yakuza. The three students and later Miruko (whose life he saved during the Underground Masquerade event in the ''Vigilantes'' spin-off) all agreed to testify and help him get leniency.
* TheAtoner: Helped protect the remaining U.A. students after being robbed of his fight against Izuku, and surrendered and joined a villain rehabilitation program after the battle was over.
* BloodKnight: His main drive in life is trying to find someone willing to give him a good fight.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Tells Izuku to send Eri and Kota away before their fight, because unlike [[AxCrazy Muscular]] he does not hurt children. He also gets angry with Chronostasis when he shoots Izuku in the back in the middle of the fight.
* EvilCounterpart: Daigoro compares him to a villainous version of [[RatedMForManly Kirishima and Tetsutetsu]].
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Joined the Shie Hassaikai for a chance to take on Chisaki, and joined the League of Villains solely to find a good fight.
* RapidFireFisticuffs: Strongarm allows Rappa to rotate his shoulders so fast he can fire rapid volleys of bullet punches.
* WouldntHurtAChild: He is disgusted by Overhaul and Muscular's willingness to do so.

!!Meta Liberation Army
[[folder:General]]
The modern incarnation of Destro's terrorist organization, they intend to make sure they can impose their idea of a society where people can make use of their Quirks without any restrictions. While their predecessor resorted to terrorism to achieve that objective, the current incarnation is trying to use politics and the media to make Japan accept the idea.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: The MLA was a very nasty organization in canon as it was, but here? Oh boy.
** Their first incarnation was hell-bent on killing Quirkless people, acting no better than the government sanctioned death squads that hunted down Meta-Humans.
** The current incarnation is more subtle but just as evil. They are ready to go to extreme lengths to destroy Izuku out of sheer pettiness.
* DevilInPlainSight: By the exception of [[ObviouslyEvil Geten]] all of them are this. Re-Destro is the CEO of one of the biggest support item companies in Japan, Curious is a board member of a major magazine, Trumpet is the head of the Hearts and Minds Party, and Skeptic is one of the leaders of an IT firm.
* EvilIsPetty: They have Izuku in their eyesight after he essentially gave them a bad review in front of prospective investors.
* FantasticRacism: They hate Quirkless people, openly rejecting any requests that would benefit one of them and deriding them as a remnant of the past that would do best to go extinct.
* HistoryRepeats: [[spoiler:The current incarnation of the MLA and Destro will clash with a One For All user. Isamu, the Third Torchbearer, had fought the MLA in life, and was the (uncredited) reason why Destro was jailed. Re-Destro goes after Izuku, who is the Ninth.]]
* InsistentTerminology: They use the term "Meta Ability" instead of "Quirk".
* SuperSupremacist: Their ideology is based on this -- the stronger one's Quirk is, the higher their position in society will be.
* WouldHurtAChild: They have no problem with the idea of having children killed if it furthers their own agenda.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Destro]]
!!Chikara Yotsubashi
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[ChargedAttack Stress]]

The founder of the Meta Liberation Army. A former freedom fighter who once crossed paths with Isamu, Destro became a Quirkist terrorist bent on "liberating" the use of Meta Abilities and killing as many Quirkless people as possible as part of his revenge plot for his mother's death.
----
* EvilCounterpart: To Isamu. Both were freedom fighters that fought against the government that hunted metas down, and both had ChargedAttack Quirks. However, Destro became a terrorist bent on destroying society while Isamu stayed true to his virtues, even if society hated him and his kind.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: He attempts to use his mother's death as justification for his terrorist campaign, only for Isamu to call him out, and say that because of said campaign, hundreds of Meta children lost their non-Meta parents and beloved ones, and Destro's own kind agrees with the government that he is a monster and that Quirks should be regulated.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Chikara went from a resistance fighter against government sanctioned death squads to a SuperSupremacist terrorist just as bad, if not worse, than said death squads.
* PosthumousCharacter: Died decades ago.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Re-Destro]]
!!Rikiya Yotsubashi
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[HulkingOut Stress]]

In his public life, he's the president and CEO of Detnerat, a company dedicated to the creation of items for people who can't buy standardized things. Behind the scenes, he's Re-Destro, the descendant of infamous terrorist Destro and Grand Commander of the Meta Liberation Army, and he's using his contacts and power to achieve his objectives.
----
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: He believes that the only reason heroes are protecting Quirkless people is because the latter have some hold on the former, instead of the former being decent people that do not hold to his FantasticRacism.
* LackOfEmpathy: When he hears how Bakugo had his villain rank increased due to how he used his Quirk to brutally bully Izuku (who was Quirkless at the time), he is disgusted that the law restricts someone's ability to use their Quirk and orders their political ally to repeal the clause that was invoked to punish Bakugo.
* PowerIncontinence: "Stress" expresses itself in the form of liver spots on his face.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: His company produces high quality products.
* VillainousLegacy: He's the descendant of Destro, a former terrorist, whose ideals he now intends to impose.

!!Chitose Kizuki
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[DelayedExplosion Landmine]]

A high-ranked member of the MLA, Curious is also the executive director and public face of Shoowaysha Publishing, which she uses to subtly spread the MLA's message.
----
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: She has blue skin, grey-purple hair and black eyes with blue irises.
* ImmoralJournalist: She has no problem in using her position to attempt to cast Izuku in a bad light -- the only reason she has failed so far is that she can't find anything that will actually stick.
* PropagandaMachine: Her company, Shoowaysha Publishing, spreads the MLA's message through their newspapers and books.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Implied. Her attempts to make [[TheHero Izuku]] look bad have instead made her the target of [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend Ochako]]'s anger -- who brings her company to the attention of [[spoiler:the Yaoyorozu Group's crack ForensicAccounting team, formed, among others, by Hisashi Midoriya, [[FamedInStory the man who cracked Nezu's finances]] and Izuku's biological father]].

* ConspiracyTheorist: He leads a media channel about conspiracies surrounding Izuku.
* FantasticRacism: Much like everybody else in the MLA, he has a huge hatred towards Quirkless people.
* HateSink: Not only he is a massive Quirkist asshole, he is all but confirmed to be jealous of Izuku's newfound popularity, and is leading an online hate campaign against him with completely false slander and conspiracy theories.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: He believes Izuku has a connection to the rumored Quirk thief All For One, which is true. However, he insists said connection is that, like All For One, Izuku must have stolen his Quirk, which is patently false.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Mustard]]
!!Shinichi Hena
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[DeadlyGas Gas]]
A new recruit for the Meta Liberation Army.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: {{Downplayed}}. Unlike his canon counterpart, he is immune to his Quirk, and his gas mask serves to fool his enemies into thinking he is not.
* AdaptationalLateAppearance: Mustard is introduced during the Training Camp attack. Here he debuts during the Work Studies arc.
* AllTheOtherReindeer: He used to be bullied because his Quirk seemed useless. This led to him become a resentful SuperSupremacist.
* MeaningfulName: His first name in kanji means "spicy, bitter" a reference to the plant used on mustard gas. And it also ties in with his resentful personality. Shinichi was also teased due to the fact that the first Kanji in 'Hena' is a homophone with the Kanji for fart/passing gas.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: Mustard's real name was never revealed in canon. Here is Shinichi Hena.
* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: He is a member of the Meta Liberation Army here, instead of the League of Villains.

[[folder:Overhaul]]
!!Kai Chisaki
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[TouchOfDeath Overhaul]] [[spoiler:(formerly)]]
The leader of the rising Yakuza faction Shie Hassaikai.
----
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: He is introduced during the Internship Arc instead of during the Shie Hassaikai arc.
* AssholeVictim: The only people who feel sorry for his death are his fanatical followers from the Yakuza, which boils down to Kurono, Nemoto and Mimic.
* BigBadWannabe: He was bent of bringing the Yakuza back to its former glory, only to be arrested by a first-year hero student on his first patrol.
* DeathByAdaptation: He is killed by All for One during the Internship Arc.
* DyingCurse: He manages to use his Quirk one last time before it gets stolen to mangle All for One's hands. Since Overhaul relies on contact for it to work, it becomes useless on the villain's hands.
* GoodPowersBadPeople: {{Lampshaded}} by Izuku. Overhaul's healing capacities make it one of the most powerful healing Quirks in the world, but he uses it for unhinged experiments. Ironic enough, after stealing it from All for One, the first person Izuku heals is one of Chisaki's minions.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Says that wants to get the world rid of Quirks, but refuses to start with his own.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He shows up in two scenes total, the last one being his death, but his role as Eri's {{AbusiveParent|s}} shapes up a lot of her personal story, his minions joining the League of Villains to avenge him has a direct impact in the Hideout Raid Arc, and his Quirk, after passing to Izuku's hands, becomes one of his best tools in helping his fellow heroes and students.
* UndignifiedDeath: A NeatFreak who dies drowning on dirty toilet water and has his body washed over by the sewers.

* IdiotBall: He gets momentarily stunned by the revelation of Endeavor's domestic abuse, which allows Shoto to freeze him long enough until Endeavor arrives and knocks him out.
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: {{Inverted}}. He says that the only person who can defeat him is a true hero like All Might or Izuku.
* VillainRespect: For heroes of TheCape variety like All Might. He also has it for Tenya for surviving their fight, which disgusts the hero student.

!!Dawson Jamrach
!!!'''Quirk:''' [[{{Animorphism}} Animorph]]
Marcus Cuvier VII's cousin. He was found to be selling some of Kuraudo Island's animals to rich people around the world, and promptly kicked out of the island. His Quirk allows him to transform into any animal he has touched.
----
* ArcVillain: Of the Kuraudo Island Arc.
* AntagonisticOffspring: To his mother, Cassie Cuvier.
* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: While he doesn't hurt them directly, he has zero problems with selling endangered animals to nefarious buyers, which makes him worse them his clients.
* DidntSeeThatComing: He certainly didn't expect that [[spoiler:Koji's Quirk Awakening would allow him to telepathically communicate with the island's animals so they could help capture him]].
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: He doesn't seem to understand why the students would want to stop him, as he claims that what he does is a "victimless crime".
* EvilPoacher: He sold animals to private collectors without a care for their health or future, and doesn't care what happens to them after causing them to frenzy.
* LackOfEmpathy: He has no regards about the lives of the animals he sells or the humans he puts at risk with his actions.
* MeaningfulName: He's named after Charles Dawson (crafter of the Piltdown Man forgery) and Charles Jamrach (owner of an exotic pet shop in Victorian England).
* PowerCopying: If he acquires the DNA of an animal that has a Quirk, he can use that Quirk himself while assuming the original holder's form. His primary use of this aspect of his Quirk on-screen has been turning into a mantled howler monkey with Stampede, which terrifies all animals that hear it and compels them to attack until calmed (which frequently requires some degree of physical injury to distract them from the compulsion).
* ShapeshiftingHealsWounds: Much like his Quirk's [[Literature/{{Animorphs}} namesake]], changing forms heals him of whatever injuries he's sustained.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Neanderthal]]
Dawson's associate-slash-minion in the business of poaching.

* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: Upon hearing that Izuku plans to seal away his Quirks before sending him to prison, Nine decides to overload his Quirk and completely destroy his body than suffer such fate.
* BlessedWithSuck: His Weather Manipulation Quirk would make him one of the most power men in the world, on par with All Might and All for One... if it didn't cause his cells to degenerate every time he uses it.
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: [[spoiler:Instead of getting killed by Shigaraki, he dies due to his cellular degeneration going beyond what he could recover from.]]
* GenericDoomsdayVillain: {{Lampshaded}} by WordOfGod. Like in canon, Nine is a generic villain with generic goals. Given how much more badass Izuku is in comparison to his canon counterpart here, he is hardly a threat as well.
* GroinAttack: He gets hit in the groin twice during his fight against the Ennead. First he gets punched by Toru, then a kick by Nejire.
* {{Irony}}: He and his crew were the ones to steal Super Regeneration from Logan Waldsworth. The Quirk would eventually fall into the hands of Izuku, who faces him during the attack on Nabu Island.
* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:His attempt to steal Monoma's Quirk backfires because the hero student not only manages to permanently copy all the Quirks Nine has, but it also allows Monoma to use Cell Activation as he has type A blood.]]
* MeaningfulName: His first name, Teruhiko, contains kanji for "sky/heaven", "inlay" and "boy". His second name, Arashikura, means "storm/tempest" and "warehouse".
* NamedByTheAdaptation: His real name was never revealed in canon. Here is Teruhiko Arashikura.
* VillainousBreakdown: Being outmatched over and over again by Izuku and Neito during their fight causes him to lose his stoic and emotionless attitude and becomes enraged at the hero students.
* WouldHurtAChild: He went to Nabu Island with full intention to steal Katsuma Shimano's Quirk, and wasn't going not do it painlessly. He held his sister Mahoro on a chokehold and was ready to take both the boy and Eri's Quirks by force before Izuku arrived.

* AntiHeroTeam: They want to be famous, and choose to do so by exposing corrupt organizations such as the Hero Commission.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: All of them are really eccentric and lovable, often engaging in conversations about classy subjects such as tea quality in their free time. They also are formidable individuals capable of fighting, escaping and outsmarting Pro Heroes and Commission agents when cornered.
