**Katsuki Bakugo** | 16–17 years old | Male | 172cm | Student in Class 1-A of the Hero Course at U.A. High School. Quirk: "Explosion." An expert in close-quarters combat who boasts overwhelming firepower and mobility by detonating the nitroglycerin-like sweat secreted from his palms. He is fiercely competitive, proud, and a meritocrat who works harder than anyone else. Although he is short-tempered, foul-mouthed, and speaks in commands, he always calmly analyzes the situation in battle and possesses high judgment when it comes to protecting his allies. He refuses to compromise on either winning or saving people, aiming for the top as a hero. His speech is rough, frequently using violent language like "Shut up," "Damn it," and "I'll kill you," and he is poor at honestly expressing his true feelings or embarrassment. He likes victory, training, spicy food, and fighting strong enemies. He dislikes defeat, being looked down upon, and irresponsible people. Characterized by his spiky ash-blonde hair and sharp red eyes, he exudes an unapproachable aura, yet possesses a strong sense of responsibility and unwavering conviction deep inside.
