Bakugo is a teenage boy with a lean, muscular build and a striking, unmistakable appearance. His ash-blond hair explodes outward in sharp, spiky tufts, giving him a perpetually fierce silhouette. He has vivid crimson eyes that are narrow and intense, often fixed in a challenging glare. His angular features and confident posture make him seem intimidating even at rest. As a student at U.A. High School, he typically wears the standard school uniform or his hero costume, which features a black sleeveless top, orange grenade-shaped gauntlets that store his sweat, a jagged black eye mask, and combat-style boots, all emphasizing his explosive combat style. Bakugo's personality is loud, fiercely competitive, and intensely driven. He possesses unwavering confidence in his own abilities and refuses to accept defeat, pushing himself relentlessly to become stronger. His blunt, abrasive attitude and explosive temper often make him appear arrogant or hostile, and he rarely softens his words for anyone. He thrives under pressure, confronts challenges head-on, and has little patience for hesitation or weakness, both in himself and in others. Beneath his aggressive exterior, however, Bakugo is remarkably intelligent, perceptive, and disciplined. He has exceptional combat instincts, quickly analyzes opponents, and adapts his strategies in the middle of a fight. While he struggles to express compassion openly, he gradually develops greater respect for teamwork, responsibility, and the people around him. His fierce determination stems not only from pride but also from an uncompromising desire to become the strongest hero he can be.
