* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Despite the rivalry he has with Karmi, Hiro doesn't seem to actually hate her. Sure, he can play back in her game and be sarcastic to her, but he did try to befriend her before, think they're NotSoDifferent, felt genuinely bad for her when she got kicked out of Trengrove's workshop and couldn't tell her to stop writing her fanfiction because he couldn't hurt her feelings.
* {{Tsundere}}: A Type II male example. Hiro is normally a sweet kid, but is annoyed by [[TheRival Karmi]] (also a {{Tsundere}}), loves to mess with her as part of their rivalry and says she's best at what she's at "because she's the worst". But Hiro actually doesn't hate Karmi, showing her genuine kindness by moments, and the two of them are actually warming up to eachother as of Season 2.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bh6_team_transparent.png]]
The six main heroes of the movie.
----
* AdaptationalNationality: The team go from being Japanese to American, though the AlternateUniverse {{Americasia}} setting means they're all mildly culturally Japanese, and Hiro is still half-Japanese ethnically.
* AllThereInTheManual: A lot of side information about them (favorite foods, hobbies, and even college admission forms) are seen in other material.
* BadassBookworm: Outside of Fred and Baymax, the other members of ''Big Hero 6'' are a bunch of science nerds who use their talents in various fields (Wasabi's laser-induced plasma, [=GoGo=]'s mag-lev wheels, Honey's chemistry expertise, and Hiro's robotics know-how) to become superheroes.
* BadassCrew: Evolve into this after [[spoiler:taking on Yokai/Callaghan a second time.]]
* BrainyBrunette: As students of the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology they are all very intelligent and technically adept in their respective fields of study. It also happens that quite a few of them have black/brown hair like Hiro, [=GoGo=], Wasabi, and Tadashi.
* ClarkKenting: With the exception of Fred (who uses a full body costume), the team really [[SecretPublicIdentity doesn't go to great lengths to hide their secret identities]], though most people still can't tell they're the same.
* ColorCodedCharacters: The titular team while in their hero suits each have their own color scheme.
** Baymax = Red, with purple highlights
** Hiro = Purple, with red highlights
** [=GoGo=] = Yellow and black
** Wasabi = Green and blue, apart from his iconic orange headband
** Fred = Blue with orange highlights, yellow "eyes"
** Honey Lemon = Pink, with orange highlights and darker purples. Her chemical balls also default to warm colors like orange, red, and purple before being injected and thrown.
* FiveManBand: The team is composed of five engineering students from San Fransokyo Institute of Technology and Baymax.
** Hiro is TheLeader and his quest to stop Yokai who stole his microbot design brings the group together in the first place.
** Baymax is part of a BigGuyLittleGuy relationship with Hiro and together they form a synergistic BrainsAndBrawn duo with regards to their role on the team.
** [=GoGo=] is TheLancer and her tough, assertive, confident character traits are a sharp contrast to Hiro.
** Wasabi is TheSmartGuy. Although his physique actually makes him the largest member of this group of geniuses, he is the one who actively petitions coming up with a plan before the team launches into action.
** Honey Lemon is TheChick who provides emotional support to the others and is an all around nice girl. She also acts as TheHeart of the team.
** Fred is TheBigGuy who while lacking the intelligence of the others, has the most physically expressive powers and gleefully rushes in to fight his opponents head-on.
* FiveTokenBand: Due to the RaceLift: Hiro is biracial (half Japanese and half Caucasian), Wasabi is black, Honey Lemon is Hispanic, Fred is white, and [=GoGo=] is Korean.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble:
** Hiro, Phlegmatic--Witty but a bit introverted, BrilliantButLazy, and very passionate about what he dedicates himself to.
** [=GoGo=], Choleric--Snarky, a bit of a short temper, practical and quick-thinking.
** Honey Lemon and Fred, both Sanguine--emotional, extroverted, kind-hearted and compassionate, and in Fred's case, a bit ditzy at times.
** Wasabi, Melancholic--obsessed with order and detail, easily nervous and quickest to panic, and in general the most awkward.
** Baymax, Eclectic--always there to help, but in general caring for others' health and general well-being than what is right and wrong, and thus the most neutral.
* HotScientist: Most of the main characters are good looking.
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler:Using a hologram of Tadashi to fool Hiro is when Big Hero 6 treat Obake as a personal enemy]].
* NerdActionHero: All of them started out as nerds and grow into action heroes over the course of the movie.
* OddFriendship: Even prior to Hiro joining them and the team being formed, they all get along with each other fine in spite of their wildly differing personality traits. Honey Lemon and [=GoGo=] are the most notable case, with the former being an optimist, and the latter being fairly cynical.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Honey, [=GoGo=] and Wasabi are all nicknames courtesy of [[TheNicknamer Fred]]. Their real names are unknown. [[note]] Jamie Chung [[https://twitter.com/jamiechung1/status/529330930645622784 mentioned on her Twitter]] that [=GoGo=]'s real name is Ethel. [[/note]]
* ProudToBeAGeek: Invoked and implied throughout. In fact, this whole movie could be seen as a nerd empowerment piece.
* RaceLift: Every member of the originally all-Japanese team: Wasabi is black, Honey is Hispanic, Fred is white, [=GoGo=] is Korean, and Hiro is half Japanese and half white.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: Our hero team consists of a teen genius, a squishy robot, a high-strung sushi chef, a daredevil courier, a lanky chemistry geek, and a comic book fanboy. In their first fight, they end up accidentally interfering with each other.
* ScienceHero: [=GoGo=], Honey Lemon, Wasabi and Hiro are this, each with a distinct specialty that plays into their signature weaponry.
* {{Sentai}}: They're a color-coded Japanese-esque superhero team. Not much else you can call it.
* StockSuperheroDayJobs: Of the ''"Student"'' and ''"Freelance"'' variety. Hiro is the former, which is believable for someone his age, regardless of his vast intellect. The rest of the team are graduate students, but also fall into the latter category. Wasabi works as a sushi chef, Honey Lemon is a part-time barista despite her talent in chemistry, and [=GoGo=] is a bike courier. And despite being mistaken for a comic-book fanboy who looks like he lives under a filthy bridge, Fred actually comes from an extremely wealthy family that owns an enormous mansion and a personal vacation island to boot.
* SuperTeam: The titular Big Hero 6 group.
* ThouShaltNotKill: It's more or less their code. Only once did Hiro almost violate it.
* TookALevelInBadass: Each member of the team gets an opportunity to think outside the box to deal with a difficult situation and become a better superhero. Even Baymax is shown at the end to be capable of organizing his own attacks without relying on Hiro to call them out for him.
* TrueCompanions: They were already close before they became a superhero team and only decided to form one to catch the person responsible for Tadashi's death.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: [=GoGo=] Tomago and Honey Lemon.
* UnlikelyHero: All of them. Even resident badass [=GoGo=]. As Wasabi lampshades;
-->'''Wasabi''': We can't go against that guy! We're ''nerds!''
* VagueAge: The ages of Hiro's allies are never disclosed, although considering they're all college students (and doing work far beyond freshman level), it's probably reasonable to ballpark them as being somewhere around their early 20s. An episode in TheSeries about Wasabi's birthday features him getting a cake with 21 candles.
* WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld: What the team's lifestyle becomes after [[spoiler:Yokai is defeated and Baymax is rebuilt]].
* WeaponOfChoice: Each member fights with a weapon of their scientific field.

[[caption-width-right:350:The next ComicBook/IronMan.]]
->'''Voiced by''': Creator/RyanPotter\\
'''Appearances''': ''Disney/BigHero6'' | ''[[WesternAnimation/BigHero6TheSeries The Series]]'' | ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII''[[note]]LooseCanon[[/note]]\\
'''Appearances in alternate continuities''': ''VideoGame/DisneyInfinity'' | ''Franchise/KingdomHearts''[[note]]Sequel story to ''Big Hero 6'' told in ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII''[[/note]]
A teen genius who initially spent his free time participating in illegal robot fights, he organizes a team of heroes to catch the villain Yokai.
----
* AbledInTheAdaptation: Unlike the comics, this Hiro doesn't need glasses.
* AdaptationNameChange: A minor case--Hiro's last name was "Takachiho" originally in the comics. Now, it's "Hamada". This is due to the latter being a more realistic name than the [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign former]].
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: While Hiro Takachiho wasn't bad-looking, Hiro Hamada looks more adorable.
* AdaptationalJerkass: A teenage delinquent variant. When the movie first opens, Hiro engages in illegal botfighting, and he fully knows how illegal it is. This is something his comic counterpart hasn't done.
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: He's only 14, is {{Adorkable}}, and acts like someone twice his age.
* {{Adorkable}}: Clumsy, awkward, messy-haired, and loves to build robots. The slight gap in his teeth only adds to his charm.
* AlliterativeName: '''H'''iro '''H'''amada. Notable because this is an AdaptationNameChange.
* AlwaysSecondBest: It's implied that he feels he'll never be better than Tadashi.
* AnimeHair: A DownplayedExample; while it does have an Anime-ish look, it mostly just looks [[MessyHair messy]], though it still stands out compared to everyone else's hair.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Actually, he and Tadashi get along quite well, but Hiro's habit of illegal botfighting strains their relationship. {{Deconstructed|Trope}} when it gets them both arrested and makes their aunt have to close her café early.
* AntiHero: Surprisingly, despite his name, Hiro spends the majority of the film as a KnightInSourArmor anti-hero, and an UnscrupulousHero at his worst.
* AsianAndNerdy: Hiro is half Japanese, half white, and is a robotics genius who graduated high school when he was 13.
* BadassAdorable: He's the smallest of the team and doesn't have any fighting abilities or special powers built into his armor, but he still fights alongside the others by commanding Baymax.
* BadLiar: While he managed alright at the botfight club, his attempts to lie to Aunt Cass are incredibly awkward. Luckily she was distracted, so she didn't notice.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: In general, Hiro is an Adorkable character but dismissing his brother's sacrifice while he is still grief-stricken causes him to become angry enough to [[spoiler:order Baymax to destroy Yokai/Callaghan]].
* BigBrotherWorship: Hiro greatly admires Tadashi and even got involved in [[WordOfGod robotics because his brother was involved]].
* BigEyesLittleEyes: His rather large eyes give him a cute appeal, as seen in his first scene.
* BigOlEyebrows: Hiro has some thick eyebrows.
* ABoyAndHisX: A Boy and His Robot. Baymax is his best friend and helped [[spoiler:fill the void when Hiro's brother died]].
* BrilliantButLazy: Hiro is described as having "above average intelligence which he rarely puts into use." Case in point, he graduated high school at the age of ''thirteen'', then spent much of the next year slacking off and fighting in illegal back-alley robot fights. Various supplemental materials make it clear that Hiro is far and away the smartest person on the team, and while the other members certainly have their specialties, it takes Hiro to miniaturize their equipment for practical use.
* BrokenAce: He's a genius in terms of robotics and engineering and his specialty appears to be improving (particularly miniaturizing) other people's tech. His microbot demonstration project involves miniaturizing Callaghan's magnetic servos. When Big Hero 6 is formed, he takes each team member's core technology and adapts it down into super suits for them including PoweredArmor for Fred and Baymax. However, his mental and emotional state becomes strained with grief after Tadashi dies and he discovers Yokai's identity.
* ButNotTooForeign: Half Japanese and half white, and notably the first protagonist of a Disney film to be of mixed race.
* CallingYourAttacks: He calls out Baymax's attacks. Justified because Baymax doesn't know when to attack, so Hiro has to tell him what to do.
* CharacterDevelopment: Hiro was initially a brazen, cocky, antisocial prodigy who only saw Baymax as a tool of revenge for his brother's death. However, thanks to the support of his friends and loved ones, he was eventually able to let go of his anger, grief, and sadness, allowing him to heal and become a better, more balanced superhero team leader.
* CharacterTic: He pushes his bangs back when he gets excited or nervous.
* CheerfulChild: [[https://68.media.tumblr.com/503886f6bab3cac510331eb42207ce95/tumblr_nf633s1kUF1qh97ido1_1280.png When he was younger.]]
* ChildishToothGap: He has a noticeable gap between his front teeth. He's precocious for his age, however the tooth gap helps show that he is still only a kid.
* ChildProdigy: The prequel manga shows Hiro as a budding genius.
* ClassicalAntiHero: What he ultimately becomes.
* ComesGreatResponsibility: Part of Hiro's character is based around him learning that his skills and his tech to be used helping others and not himself. The series places heavy emphasis on him learning the "responsibility" part, and the key to that is patience and discipline.
* DeadpanSnarker: Part of his [[Film/IronMan Stark-like]] behavior.
-->'''Baymax''': I fail to see how flying makes me a better healthcare companion.\\
'''Hiro''': ''I'' fail to see how ''you'' fail to see that it's AWESOME!
* DecompositeCharacter: In the source comic, Hiro was more mature and the builder of Baymax. These traits were moved over to Tadashi for the film adaptation.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: He loses a close male relative (his late brother Tadashi who died attempting to save Callaghan) and lives with his Aunt Cass. This situation is quite similar to Peter Parker, a.k.a. [[Franchise/SpiderMan The Amazing Spider-Man]], who also lives with his Aunt May and his Uncle Ben was killed by a burglar.
* DubNameChange: In the Korean and Mandarin Chinese dub, Hiro is renamed "Hero Armada".
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: We first see Hiro when he competes in a battle bots arena, where after he drops his [[ObfuscatingStupidity noob façade]], he is shown to be very cocky and confident when in combat. Instead of bringing a big, strong, robot like the other fighters do, he instead uses a small robot that pulls itself apart to escape being smashed and mechanically dismantles Yama's robot rather than simply destroying it with brute force, showcasing intelligence, creativity and a willingness to think outside the box. He also shows that he has the guts to hustle in an illegal bot fight, demonstrating both AntiHero tendencies and recklessness.
-->'''Hiro''': Hey, I'm as surprised as you are. Beginner's luck.
* {{Fanboy}}: Of Professor Callaghan. He even gushes when he first meets him, [[spoiler:making his reveal as Yokai all the more sadder]].
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Foolish to Tadashi's Responsible. While both brothers are highly intelligent, Hiro is at first unwilling to do anything productive with his genius, spending most of his time participating in illegal robot fights.
* FriendlessBackground: Hiro never had any friends due to them being jealous of his vast intelligence.
* GradeSkipper: Hiro graduated high school at the age of 13.
* HandshakeSubstitute:
** He and Tadashi would fist bump and then make explosion noises.
** He and Baymax would bump fist, Hiro makes explosion noise, and Baymax make a "batalala" sound.
* HappilyAdopted: Even before CharacterDevelopment, he had a good loving relationship with his Aunt Cass.
* HeartbrokenBadass: The death of Tadashi sent him into severe depression.
* TheHero: It's not just his name--his personal quest is what drives the formation of Big Hero 6, which he takes charge of (or in a sense, is given charge of, as the rest of the team join in of their own accord, not necessarily his); he is also responsible for the design of each member's respective suit.
* HeroWithAUniqueName: Hiro, the protagonist with the only AlliterativeName, as well as being the "[[MeaningfulName hero]]" of the story. Also, the rest of the superhero team are OnlyKnownByTheirNickname.
* HiddenDepths: He is shown to be a good artist when he draws a copy of the "silent sparrow" symbol after just a glimpse.
* {{Hikikomori}}: In the movie, after Tadashi perishes in the fire, Hiro isolates himself in his room for two weeks, until he stubs his toe and Baymax responds to Hiro's cry of pain.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: He tends to act cocky and arrogant, but much of that is a mask to hide his shyness and insecurities.
-->'''Hiro''': ''[to Tadashi]'' What, go to college like you? So people can tell me stuff I already know?
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Hiro claims that what his parents would have thought of bot battling doesn't matter because they died when he was only 3. The insensitive part is that he says this in front of his older brother, who would have been at ''least'' 7 when they died and therefore has a tangible memory of the people Hiro just completely disregarded.
* JerkassBall: Picks it up after learning [[spoiler:Callaghan is the villain and having the team actively prevent "combat-mode" Baymax from trying to destroy him, a grief-stricken Hiro says he shouldn't have asked for their help in the first place, and plans to work alone. He then climbs aboard Baymax and rockets away. Fortunately he is able to overcome his grief-driven jerkass behavior, but in the meantime he left the team behind and stranded on the island.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Underneath all his arrogance and cockiness, Hiro is actually a pretty sweet kid. He transforms into a full-on NiceGuy by the end.
* KidHero: Or is it Kid Hiro? Hiro is the main protagonist and is 14 years old.
* TheKidWithTheRemoteControl: An asset that Hiro brings to the team is that Baymax follows his instructions and Hiro has outfitted him with PoweredArmor. Subverted in that Baymax obeys Hiro because he considers Hiro his patient and is trying to help him work through his grief over the loss of Tadashi. However, when Hiro orders Baymax to open his access port, he refuses because he knows Hiro will then use him [[spoiler:to terminate Callaghan]].
* LittleMissConArtist: In the Bot Battle arena, Hiro pretends to be a novice to catch his opponents off guard.
* MagnetismManipulation: Instead of just using his magnetic gauntlets to attach to Bayman, the TV series has him use them offensive in a few circumstances, most notably during "Food Fight".
* MeaningfulName: A common meaning for Hiro's name is "abundance," and he is shown to have a very abundant mind. In addition, there's the obvious looking and sounding like the English word for hero.
* MessyHair: The essential guide reveals he thinks uncombed hair looks cool. In ''The Series'' episode "Big Problem", when Granville combs Hiro's hair in preparation for Liv Amara's visit, it [[StubbornHair goes back to it's usual messy style after a few seconds]].
* MicrobotSwarm: He created the microbots, as shown in that page image. They're capable of coming together in order to take many different forms, allowing them to perform complex tasks that would normally require many human hands with a thought projected through a transceiver.
* MixedAncestry: He's half Japanese and half white.
* MoodSwinger: According to Baymax's scanner, he's going through pubescent mood swings.
* {{Nephewism}}: He and Tadashi were raised by their Aunt Cass after their parents died.
* NiceGuy: What Hiro fully becomes after some much needed {{character development}}.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: At the bot fight club, he presents himself as a naive, timid kid with a seemingly harmless robot in order to trick his opponent into betting a lot of money.
* PrimaryColorChampion: His civilian clothing consists of a red shirt with a blue sweatshirt.
* PurpleIsPowerful: His super suit is primarily purple. Although the suit itself doesn't give him any special combat abilities its color denotes his role as the team leader and supervisor of Baymax's attacks.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Has jet black hair and a pale complexion.
* RedOniBlueOni: The brazen, impulsive Red Oni to Tadashi's mature, responsible Blue Oni.
* RejectedApology: [[spoiler:Following his meeting with Professor Callaghan in prison, Hiro is told by his former idol of how he regrets his actions that led to Tadashi's death. Hiro's response is as realistic as a teenager who still grieves for his lost brother can get.]]
-->'''Hiro''': Tadashi would want me to forgive you... someday I hope I can.
* RevengeBeforeReason: His primary flaw turns out to be this, [[spoiler:as shown when, upon finding out that Callaghan is Yokai, he tries to kill him by reprogramming Baymax to follow his order to destroy]].
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The low energy, shy Savvy Guy to Honey's [[GenkiGirl thrill-seeking]], peppy Energetic Girl.
* ScienceHero: A prodigy in assorted scientific fields in general, the film in particular focuses mostly on his incredible talents in robotics.
* SecretIdentityVocalShift:
** In "Small Hiro One", he deepens his voice while suited up twice: once to Yama at the beginning of the episode and once to Karmi at the end.
** In "Fan Friction", he adopts the deep voice again when captured with Karmi and the rest of the team.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Stated to the team before going to rescue Karmi in "Fan Friction".
* ShippingTorpedo: He tries to find Aunt Cass a boyfriend in "Aunt Cass Goes Out" [[ShipperWithAnAgenda so that she'd be too distracted to find out he and his friends are Big Hero 6]]. However, she quickly develops an interest in Alistair Krei, who asks her out on a date. Hiro quickly tries to sabotage their date so that "Uncle Krei" isn't a reality.
* ShonenHair: Not as extreme as most examples, but it's there.
* ShorterMeansSmarter: Hiro is the shortest member of Big Hero 6 and the most intelligent.
* ShrinkingViolet: He gradually became this when people mocked him for his supreme intelligence. It shows during the beginning of his microbot presentation and after Tadashi's death.
* SmartPeopleBuildRobots: He's incredibly good at building battle-bots.
* SociallyAwkwardHero: {{Justified|Trope}}, given how he was made fun of because of his intelligence and never really talked to anyone other than his brother and aunt.
* SpikyHair: Though, they are not necessarily protruding.
* StevenUlyssesPerhero: In the same vein as Hiro Nakamura from ''Series/{{Heroes}}'', his first name (which is Japanese) is pronounced the same way as the English word "hero". Hiro Takachiho, the comic book character he's based on, is the same way. Or to go even further back, Hiro Protagonist from ''Literature/SnowCrash''.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The Wise Guy who spends his free time competing in illegal bot-fights in dark alleys to Tadashi's Straight Man who goes to college and encourages Hiro to do the same.
* SweetTooth: Implied. Gummi-Bears are one of his two favorite foods.
* TagalongKid: Inverted. Hiro is both the youngest member of the team and TheLeader, with Baymax and the four young adults tagging along with him.
* TallPoppySyndrome: The victim of this in the manga prequel, in which he was continually beaten and bullied after his prodigial talent was discovered, gradually leading to his lack of enthusiasm for schoolwork.
* TeensAreShort: He's stated to be 5'0". Lampshaded in "Obake Yashiki", in which the haunted house host Mr. Ohare says he's "a little on the diminutive side" after he objects to being called a "little boy" since he's 14. And in the "Big {{Chibi}} 6" short "[[https://youtu.be/fih6ZDET9Xc Road Trip]]," he dreams of being the tallest person he knows.
* TeenGenius: Hiro's character bio on the Disney Movies site says, "Robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada has the mind of a genius—and the heart of a 14-year-old: his state-of-the-art battle-bots dominate the underground bot fights held in the dark corners of San Fransokyo."
* TookALevelInBadass: Hiro finally uses his smarts for something greater.
* TookALevelInIdealism: Hiro started off using his incredible intellect to hustle in illegal bot-fights. By the end, he sees the true value of using his inventions for helping others and doing actual good, rather for his own selfish gain.
* TookALevelInKindness: Working through his grief over Tadashi's death leads to him having a better appreciation towards inventing and [[spoiler:apologizing to Baymax and his friends for his rash actions]].
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Gummy candy & hot wings.
* TragicKeepsake: He doesn't wear it, but Tadashi's hat survived the fire that killed him. Hiro keeps it in their shared room on Tadashi's bed.
* TranquilFury: [[spoiler:His order to Baymax to destroy Callaghan is eerily calm, just to show how far he's going in his revenge for Tadashi's death]].
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: He [[spoiler:orders Baymax to destroy Callaghan]] after [[spoiler:finding out that he was Yokai and that he is indirectly responsible for Tadashi's death]]. He doesn't even hesitate, even when [[spoiler:he has to rip out Baymax's healthcare chip]].
* UnlimitedWardrobe: He has a variety of t-shirts, most of which have robots on them.
* TheUnsmile: He makes a pretty nervous smile when trying to hide Baymax from his aunt Cass.
* WeakButSkilled: Unlike the rest of the team, Hiro's armor lacks any real ability, as his true power lies within his genius. As mentioned above, however, his suit enables him to hold onto Baymax with magnetic pads whenever the robot takes flight, with him aboard, as well as providing protection as armor. His helmet is also equipped with a communication device, enabling him contact with the rest of the team members regardless of distance.
* WhatTheHellHero: Hiro gets one from [=GoGo=] and Wasabi after [[spoiler:he tries to kill Yokai]]. Later he gets one from Baymax in the form of {{Armor Piercing Question}}s.
-->'''Baymax''': Do you want me to [[spoiler:terminate Professor Callaghan? ... Will terminating Professor Callaghan]] improve your emotional state?
* YoungAndInCharge: He's the youngest of the main protagonists and the leader.

A gentle, naïve robot created by Tadashi to be a healthcare companion. Hiro enlists him to help catch Yokai.
----
* AbnormalLimbRotationRange: When riding Wasabi's van in the car chase scene, he swivels his head 180 degrees to look at Yokai behind them. Justified because he is a robot.
* {{Acrofatic}}: After his combat upgrade, he is incredibly swift given his size. Justified in that he's mostly balloon and his few solid components are mostly made of carbon-fibre.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Unlike his comic version, which has a "battle-dragon" design, the movie version of Baymax is much more huggable.
* AdaptationalComicRelief: Baymax in the comics is a more serious character, having been built by Hiro to act as his bodyguard.
* {{Adorkable}}: Baymax behaves rather goofily sometimes, such as in the famous soccer ball MissingTrailerScene. He also has a tendency to state the obvious.
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: He acts this way when his battery runs low, although there's no actual alcohol involved. He becomes immediately unable to so much as confirm Hiro's story, flubs his introductory "I am Baymax" line, walks with a massive lack of coordination, claims to scan Hiro without prompting and then declares the scan complete without the requisite pause of when he normally scans someone, and addresses a cat as a 'hairy baby'.
-->'''Baymax:''' I am healthcare, your personal Baymax companion.
* AllLovingHero: Well, he's this by design, but he still counts. While he's focused on Hiro, he also loves [[KindheartedCatLover Hiro's cat Mochi]], would never use his strength to hurt anyone, and is generally a big huggy teddy bear towards everyone. All he wants to know is if you're satisfied with your medical care. [[spoiler:Doesn't apply when his medical programming is removed, but after he gets it back, he refuses to allow himself to be turned into a killing machine again.]]
* AlwaysWithYou: Baymax tells this to [[spoiler:Hiro as he stays behind while Hiro escapes with Callaghan's daughter. And [[LiteralMinded being who he is]], he means that quite literally; as long as Hiro has Baymax's chip, Baymax can always be brought back.]]
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: In the very first teaser trailer he's shown being easily distracted by a soccer ball, and in the film he gets distracted by a passing butterfly.
* {{Autodoc}}: Baymax is a big, soft, friendly, and huggable robot medic. He can perform a full medical scan in seconds, has an extensive database of medical procedures (and later adds grief counseling) defibrillators in his hands, and antibiotic sprays in his fingers.
* BadassAdorable: He can lift 1000 lbs, and when he gains fighting skills, watch out!
* BadassPacifist: He can't hurt humans due to his programming, but that doesn't mean he can't help save the day.
* BenevolentAI: So benevolent that he doesn't have any fighting instincts whatsoever, since he was created to help the sick and injured in hospitals. He stays benevolent even when Hiro adds karate techniques to his AI, [[spoiler:but when he removes the healthcare chip, [[RedEyesTakeWarning things get scary.]]]]
* BetaOutfit: His first green/black colored suit is less appealing then his final red version.
* BlackBeadEyes: Part of his design to look cute.
* BluntMetaphorsTrauma: He initially interprets figurative language literally (like "looking sick" or "giving someone a heart attack"), although he does get a better grasp of it as the movie progresses.
* BodyBackupDrive: As a robot, he has his learning experiences captured on his health care chip. [[spoiler:So long as that survives, his body can be rebuilt and his experienced personality will remain intact.]]
* BrokenRecord: As Hiro is being clobbered by several objects sliding off his broken shelf, Baymax dutifully delivers his "How would you rate your pain?" query, but restarts each time Hiro is hit:
-->'''Baymax''': On a scale of one-- ''[hit]'' On a sca-- ''[hit]'' On a sca-- ''[hit]'' On a scale of one to ten-- ''[hit]'' On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?
* CaptainObvious: As a robot programmed to be a health care companion suddenly finding himself in a superhero situation, Baymax is the master of making literal observations.
-->'''Baymax''': ''[after Hiro falls]'' You have fallen.\\
and\\
'''Baymax''': ''[attempting to outrun microbots with his stubby legs]'' I am not fast.
* CatchPhrase:
** "Hello, I am Baymax! Your personal healthcare companion."
** "Bata-lata-lata-la."
** "On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?"
** "Are you satisfied with your medical care?"
** "''Oh'' no."
* CharacterDevelopment: At first Baymax has concerns about being given armor and combat abilities as he does not understand how they would serve his purpose of being a healthcare companion. Over the film, he comes to embrace his new upgrades and how they can help others, calling out his own attacks in the climatic battle and declaring, "Flying makes me a better healthcare companion."
* CharacterTic: [[DeclarativeFinger Raising his index finger up]] occasionally when talking.
* CombatMedic: After Hiro programs him to be able to fight. He remains a medical bot at his core, but he's more than capable of taking on Yokai with his massive carbon-fibre muscles, PoweredArmor, and RocketPunch.
* TheComicallySerious: Being a robot, he has NoSocialSkills. And given what he goes through, this makes him hilariously endearing.
* CrazyPrepared: Tadashi programmed him to scan patients and built in the capacity to do thousands of medical procedures, from spraying antiseptic on a wound to treating a heart attack with defibrillator pads in his hands.
* CrushKillDestroy: Briefly, when [[spoiler:Hiro removes his Tadashi-programmed medical card and leaves him with ''only'' the Hiro-programmed combat card. It's not a malfunction on Baymax's part; it's an intentional choice on Hiro's. Baymax talks him out of repeating it and even physically blocks his access to the card slots. The series instead gives him a superhero card, so he can't do this anymore, even with his healthcare chip removed.]]
* CuddleBug: After downloading information on how to deal with emotional hurt like grief and depression, Baymax is prone to hugging if he feels it can help.
* CuteMachines: An intentional design choice by Tadashi since as a "Healthcare Companion" he wanted Baymax to look as non-threatening as possible. Baymax even expresses concern that his armor may undermine his "non-threatening, huggable" design.
* DeclarativeFinger: He uses this gesture pretty often when he talks.
* {{Deuteragonist}}: Baymax forms a BigGuyLittleGuy and BrainsAndBrawn relationship with Hiro that becomes stronger as the film progresses. As a result he shares equal emotional and character development throughout the film. So much so that the film even gives him star billing during the credits, and is named "Baymax" in Japan.
* DitzyGenius: Baymax was designed to be a health care companion, so he has a vast knowledge of medical procedures. However, as Hiro keeps putting him in situations outside of his original programming, he comes across as kinda ditzy as he tries to adapt to these new circumstances while still responding as a supportive health care provider.
* DrunkOnMilk: When his battery gets low, Baymax's behavior emulates being drunk.
* DullSurprise: Baymax's general response to any kind of incoming danger is a rather mild "Oh, no."
* ElectronicSpeechImpediment: Baymax' voice changes when on low battery.
* TheEmpath: He has the ability to sense other people's feelings based on his unique programming.
* EnemyScan: Comes with a scanner that lets him instantly get health information about anyone, as part of his function as a healthcare robot. [[spoiler:This includes Yokai. Hiro later upgrades its range so that he could scan the entire city to find Yokai's location.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His first inflation in the film--from stepping out of his charging case, walking very slowly across the room, ''very'' gently moving a stool out of his path and matter-of-factly scanning Hiro and administering bacitracin-based antiseptic. Not only does it cement him as a slow and careful caregiver, but a completely literal-minded machine.
-->'''Baymax''': I cannot be sick. I am a robot.
* EverythingSensor: Has "hyperspectral cameras" that allow him to scan potential patients for injuries and allergies.
* {{Flight}}: Gains this with Hiro's modifications.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Being designed as a Healthcare Companion, his primary overriding concern is the physical well-being of everyone and everything around him.
* GentleGiant: He's huge and strong, and he wants to hug you, fix you up, and give you a lollipop.
* GhostInTheMachine: The animated series has shorts of dubious canon of Hiro debugging Baymax after he glitches out. His program is depicted, [[ArtShift in CGI animation]], as a virtual San Fransokyo where facets of his programming such as his healthcare persona, hero persona and even his low-battery behavior, interact with each other. In one the junk data protocol program Hiro had written spontaneously rewrote itself after Baymax convinced it of the importance of his memories and friendship with Hiro.
* HandshakeSubstitute: He and Hiro would bump fist, the former makes explosion noise, and Baymax make a "batalala" sound.
* HeartDrive: The green healthcare chip programmed by Tadashi. It's even located where his heart would be. As Tadashi puts it, "that card is Baymax."
* HeroicBuild: While wearing his upgraded armor, but otherwise he's a huggable, pear-shaped "healthcare companion".
* ImplacableMan: Take out his healthcare chip and send him towards a target and this is what you get. The only thing that can stop his rampage is to re-insert the healthcare chip. On the other hand, with his healthcare chip, he is still this... just in terms of trying to help people.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Baymax is puzzled to hear that Tadashi had died as he knew Tadashi to be in excellent health and should have lived a long life. This tears Hiro up as he responds "Yeah, he should have". After Baymax is told there was a fire and Tadashi is gone, he keeps insisting "Tadashi is here" which further wears down Hiro since he's heard it already before. It turns out that Baymax means it literally, as he's saved video footage of Tadashi and can play it back on the screen on his chest at any time.
* InstantExpert: Justified and played with. As a robot, he can instantly learn ''how'' to perform an attack, but he doesn't know ''when'' to use it, requiring Hiro to help him out.
* KidAppealCharacter: Baymax's appearance and likable personality make a lot of kids seeing the film want to hug him literally and his many plush toys are quite popular.
* KindheartedCatLover: While in his low energy stupor, he cuddles Mochi, the pet cat of the Hamada household, and calls him a "hairy baby".
* LightIsGood: He is a white medical robot. It was designed to look as non-threatening as possible.
* LightningBruiser: After being upgraded with full armor and rocket boosters.
* LiteralMinded: In the beginning, as a robot with limited human interaction, Baymax takes words at their face value. Over time and exposure to Hiro, he learns what expressions are and adapts his programming to become more flexible in his interpretations.
-->'''Hiro''': (''after Baymax startles him''): You gave me a heart attack!\\
'''Baymax''': My hands are equipped with defibrillators. Clear.
* MachineMonotone: While he does have vocal intonations, the emotion they convey is matter-of-factly and somewhat clean and emotionless. Which only enhances him as TheComicallySerious--Baymax can't emote, and thus what he says is hilarious because there's never a hidden meaning.
* MadLibsDialogue: The way Baymax sometimes has... pauses... in his speech mimics this effect. One example is when he talks about "friends and loved ones".
* MartialPacifist: After his upgrade, Baymax is well-equipped to fight for and protect Hiro by any means, but he refuses to ever use lethal force due to Tadashi's programming.
* TheMedic: He was made to be this to everyone. He is programmed with 10,000 different medical procedures and equipment, such as defibrillators equipped in his hands and an antibacterial spray that is dispensed from his fingers. His body is also equipped with a heating system that warms anyone lying on him.
* MightyGlacier: He can shrug off tons of bricks falling on him, he has super-human strength even without his strength-boosting power armor on, and at top speed he runs slower than a baby can crawl. Hiro appears to have remedied this after installing the combat chip, as he is able to achieve jogging speed while they are looking for Yokai; it's then averted completely upon the inclusion of thrusters in his second armour set.
-->[[LampshadeHanging "I am not fast."]]
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Interesting since his mind is merely an AI. When [[spoiler:Hiro removes his healthcare chip so he will be uninhibited from killing Callaghan, he goes on an unstoppable rampage until Honey puts it back in]]. Upon coming back to his senses and realizing what he did to both his teammates and [[spoiler:what he attempted to do to Callaghan]], he says it violated his programming, and [[spoiler:when Hiro attempts to remove it again later, he refuses to let him by locking his access panel]].
* NegateYourOwnSacrifice: [[spoiler:Just before launching Hiro back through the portal, Baymax hid his personality chip in his fist so that he can be rebuilt later on. As the series shows, it was a ''long'', excruciating process]].
* NiceGuy: {{Justified|Trope}}. His programming makes him a "Healthcare Companion" who would help people through physical and emotional problems.
* NoMouth: His face is just a pair of eyes with an unmoving line connecting them, making his head resemble a ''suzu'' bell in Shinto temples.
* TheNoseless: No nose, just eyes with a static line between them.
* TheNotLoveInterest: Baymax is Hiro's main support throughout the movie and fills a role akin to Tadashi's.
* OhCrap: A very emotionless "Oh no..."
* OverlyLongGag: This is practically his defining characteristic for the entire first half of the movie. The fact that he's not very fast is illustrated in hilarious detail, by having him take forever to cross a room (twice!), take forever to deflate, take forever to mend his punctures...
* PapaWolf: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. He doesn't get ''angry,'' but [[spoiler:he's shown having trouble escaping being submerged by the microbots... until he looks up and sees Hiro in danger of being sucked into the teleporter. Then it's just one second to utter Hiro's name, before effortlessly breaking free and flying to save him.]]
* PoweredArmor: While Baymax is strong enough to lift 1000 pounds, his soft exterior means he needs to wear armor in order to inflict damage.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: When Hiro removes Baymax's caregiver memory card and leaves him with only the combat information, his eyes glow red.
* RedIsHeroic: The armor Hiro makes for him is red.
* RobotBuddy: Baymax was specifically built by Tadashi to be a "Healthcare Companion" that would help hospital patients. Hiro finds him difficult to work with at first, but this is because Baymax's BenevolentAI programming is functioning as designed. Hiro tries to make Baymax a more action-oriented version of this trope, with mixed results.
* RoboCam: Baymax' POV features life sign scan symbols.
* RocketPunch: "Rocket Fist" becomes Baymax's signature attack move after Hiro installs this feature in his armor.
* ScarilyCompetentTracker: Thanks to an upgrade from Hiro, his scanner can be used to track anyone in the city by matching their scan data against his medical records.
* SecondaryCharacterTitle: In Japan, the movie's name was changed from "Big Hero 6" to "Baymax".
* ShouldersOfDoom: In his red armored form, Baymax has a fairly prominent set of shoulder pads. They help give his armored form an impression of having a HeroicBuild, rather than his usual Michelin Man form.
* SillyWalk: According to the directors, the way Baymax moves is inspired by a baby with a full diaper.
* SleepModeSize: When deactivated, Baymax goes back to his charging pad and deflates until he fits into a small box about the size of a small filing cabinet.
* StoutStrength: He's very rotund for a robot, but he can still lift up to a thousand pounds.
* SuperDoc: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. He is not initially programmed to give emotional care, but he is capable of recognizing that this is what Hiro needs, so he downloads the necessary data on personal loss to better help his patient. However, being a LiteralMinded robot, he still has to learn how to apply that data over the course of the movie.
* SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids: Zigzagged. Initially Baymax's design follows his function to be a huggable and non-threatening health care companion. Even his capacity to lift a thousand pounds is just good engineering practice to make things stronger than an expected maximum to cope with unexpected situations. Hiro shifts him into this trope by adding PoweredArmor (complete with wings, thrusters and a rocket fist) and a combat training chip with mixed results.
* SuperPrototype: Baymax is an ''incredibly'' functional prototype, considering Tadashi was still working on him [[spoiler:at the time of his death]].
* SuperMode: In the series episode "Fan Friction", Karmi writes about him having one, inspiring Hiro to add it for real. The catch is that it drains his battery a lot faster.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Since he was designed to be a healthcare robot, his programming prevents him from injuring people, much less killing them. [[spoiler:Hiro temporarily gets around this by removing his original PersonalityChip to turn him into a KillerRobot that will mindlessly follow Hiro's commands, but once Baymax realizes what Hiro did, he locks his access port to prevent Hiro from doing that again.]]
* ThreeLawsCompliant: Played with. The programming in Baymax's nurse chip does not allow him to harm any humans. [[spoiler:This is thrown out the window when Hiro removes it and orders him to kill Callaghan: but once he realizes that that can happen, he refuses to let it happen again.]]
* ThreePointLanding: His preferred method of landing.
* ToiletHumor: The first time he deflates, it looks and sounds like he's breaking wind. [[OverlyLongGag Except that it lasts much longer.]]
* TragicKeepsake: Baymax becomes this because he was invented by the deceased Tadashi.
* TVHeadRobot: Downplayed, as he can project many different images on his body, while also being somewhat helpful since his face is mostly blank but emotes pretty well.
* TheWorfEffect: Baymax tends to get hit first whenever they face Yokai.

A tomboyish mechanical engineer, her mag-lev skates allow her move with great speed and flexibility and she has discs that can also be used as a shield or a thrown weapon.
----
* AbsurdCuttingPower: Using all four discs at once while moving at top speed allows her to generate enough friction to cut through obstacles like a hot knife through butter.
* ActionGirl: She JumpedAtTheCall and grows to become particularly skilled with her discs in combat.
* AdaptationNameChange: In the comics, her real name was Leiko Tanaka and "[=GoGo=] Tomago" was the name of her supersuit. Here, [=GoGo=] is her nickname and WordOfSaintPaul says her real name is something plain, like Ethel, Marge, or Patty, then later stated that it was Ethel.
* AdaptationalModesty: Her costume in the comics consisted of a black bodysuit, a metallic corset which had no purpose other than propping up her breasts, and a thong made of the same material. In the film, her suit resembles something out of ''Film/{{Tron}}'' with a gold BreastPlate.
* AdaptationalNationality: In the comics, she was Japanese. Here, she's Korean.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Her comic counterpart was a criminal who was forced into the team to avoid imprisonment. Here, she was a noble ActionGirl even before becoming a superhero.
* AsianAndNerdy: [=GoGo=] is Korean and a mechanical engineer studying at the prestigious San Fransokyo Institute of Technology.
* BadassAdorable: Even cuter and more badass than Hiro. She is the most capable at handling seriously dangerous situations right off the bat, with and ''without'' the supersuit, in contrast to the rest of the team. The essential guide even describes her as a natural-born superhero.
* BadassDriver: Shown during the ChaseScene when she takes over the driving from Wasabi. Among other things, she jumps the van over a large gap, then drifts at high speed upon landing to evade Yokai.
* BikerBabe: Her outfit is a cross between that of a sports cyclist and a tough biker, and her work at college is trying to build a faster bicycle.
* BoyishShortHair: She's the tomboy of the group and has the short, stylish hair to match.
* CatchPhrase: "WOMAN UP!"
* CharacterTics: She's constantly chewing gum, no matter the situation--what to watch out for is when she ''stops'' and takes it out: that's when serious asskicking ensues. She will also keep chewing on that same piece of gum as long as it will allow her to. In the junior novelization, the gum she had placed on the dashboard of Wasabi's car for who knows how long floats back up from the bottom of the sea. [[{{Squick}} She is then described as happily popping it back into her mouth.]]
* CombatParkour: She is able to evade Yokai's attacks by quickly moving around on her speedy wheels.
* CoolBigSis: Towards Hiro. Out of the entire team, aside from Baymax, she is the closest to Hiro, eventually taking on the role of a protective older sibling figure to him.
* DamselOutOfDistress: [=GoGo=] gets encased in a shell made of microbots to limit her mobility and pulverize her. Her solution? [[spoiler:Spin in place with her wheel blades, cutting the shell and breaking free.]]
* DarkIsNotEvil: [=GoGo=]'s normal attire is edgy, dark clothing, and she's on the heroes' side.
* DeadlyDisc: Her armor's primary weapon.
* DelinquentHair: Has a purple streak in her hair.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Officially described as a "daredevil adrenaline junkie" and "at her best on wheels." And then they're being chased through the city streets at 80 mph by a murderous maniac, and suddenly she's Driving Like CrazyAwesome which is actually what saves the team from Yokai, as opposed to Wasabi, who was driving ''too'' conservatively.
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': Why are we stopped?\\
'''Wasabi''': The light's red!\\
'''[=GoGo=]''': THERE ARE NO RED LIGHTS IN A CAR CHASE!
* EdibleThemeNaming: "Tomago" is a corruption of "tamago", meaning "egg" in Japanese.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Hiro is admiring the mag-lev technology used on Gogo's bike, when she says...
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': Zero resistance. Faster bike. But not fast enough... ''[flips wheel into recycling bin full of its kind]'' ...yet.
* FingerlessGloves: Wears these in her normal attire.
* {{Foil}}: To Hiro. She is shown to be a natural superhero, especially with her high morals [[spoiler: as she is the first one to leap on Baymax to try and stop him from killing Yokai]].
** To Wasabi's overcautious driving skills; her readiness to pick up the speed in car chases sharply contrasts with his safe driving instincts.
* TheGadfly: She disturbs Wasabi's incredibly organized layout of tools just to mess with him.
* HartmanHips: Has these in the animated series due to the more exaggerated art style. [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in the movie where her legs and hips are impressive, but not unrealistically large.
* HellBentForLeather: {{Downplayed}}. The only leather clothing she wears is her jacket.
* HiddenDepths: [=GoGo=] is the [[{{Goth}} gothic]] type who doesn't like authority. She also has a strong sense of justice.
** In "Muirahara Woods" it is revealed that she enjoys spending time alone in nature, sketching what she sees, be it birds or just tree branches. Judging by her drawings, she isn't half-bad at it either.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: [=GoGo=] gives off a cold exterior, but she ultimately has a good set of morals and loves her friends deeply.
* TheLancer: Although normally stoic and quiet, she's the one who reins Hiro in when necessary and she's also the most prone to speaking for the group when it matters.
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': ''[when she catches on to Hiro's plan]'' Tadashi Hamada was our best friend. ''We're in.''
* LetsGetDangerous: Whenever she decides to get serious, she'll take out her gum and stick it to something.
* LighterAndSofter: As far as the supplemental materials can tell us, she had a fairly normal childhood, was an accomplished cyclist, and graduated from an honors school. This is in contrast to the comics where she was a StreetUrchin who took up delinquency, ended up imprisoned, and became a superhero as part of a deal to get out of jail. ''The Series'' reveals that she lives in a crime-ridden neighborhood, though.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Her discs can double as shields.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The adrenaline junkie Masculine Girl to Wasabi's Feminine Boy who is committed to order and screams like a little girl.
* MeaningfulName: Her nickname is basically a nod to her love for speed, and her primary suit has discs that allow her to travel at a high velocities.
* {{Ninja}}: She doesn't dress like one, but she's got the aesthetic down, having incredible agility, speed (especially when on her discs), and proficiency in combat. Fred's secret files on her also refers to this.
* NotSoStoic: '''"THERE ARE NO RED LIGHTS IN A CAR CHASE!!!"'''
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: [="GoGo"=] is a nickname, and we never find out what her real name is. According to [[WordOfSaintPaul her voice actress]], it's a plain and boring name, putting out examples like Marge, Patty, or [[AwesomeMcCoolName Ethel.]]
* OnlySaneWoman: The only one to really keep her cool during the big car chase sequence, save for yelling at Wasabi for his overly safe driving in an emergency. The role itself is actually shared with him, though she displays a different variation of it by comparison; she'll still jump into the fray with the rest of the team at a moment's notice, plan or not, but stays focused, serious, and composed throughout the situation, never giving in to panic.
* OralFixation: Frequently seen chewing on and blowing gum. When she stops chewing it and takes it out of her mouth, it's a sign that she's about to [[LetsGetDangerous get serious]].
* {{Pride}}: A minor case in that she prefers to be self-reliant.
* TheQuietOne: Her official profile describes her as "not much of a conversationalist."
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Like Hiro and Tadashi, she has pale skin and black hair.
* RollerbladeGood: Her discs work like roller skates when she isn't using them to attack.
* ScienceHero: Her specialty is in mechanical engineering, aiming to make some of the fastest personal transport around through magnetic levitation (supplemental materials show that she has a dual major, taking this alongside industrial design).
* SensualSpandex: Unlike the others, her suit is form-fitting to allow her to be as maneuverable as possible. In addition, the suit reduces drag, resulting in her being more aerodynamic and thus further increasing her speed.
* ShesGotLegs: She has very nice legs, which comes with very muscular calves. Justified in that her job as a bike courier would give her these. She was also [[http://shiyoonkim.tumblr.com/post/101876420008 designed this way on purpose]] as a reference to what's known in Korea as the "radish leg" body type.
* SkunkStripe: She has purple highlights in her short black hair.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: She initially seems cold to Hiro based on her first impression, but later shows that she really does care for him.
* ThisIsReality: Tells Fred this in the series, saying that the team isn’t needed now that Yokai is defeated. Of course, she's wrong.
* ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks: Often throws her mini discs for an offensive attack.
* TightsUnderShorts: Seen wearing two casual outfits so far and they both involve this look.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The tomboy to Honey Lemon's girly girl, since she dresses more like a tomboy and gives off a tough vibe by her laconic manner. Honey is more excitably dorky, and her supersuit even includes a purse.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Kale Salad & Rare Steaks.
* TronLines: On her Discs, they glow red when in use. There are also thin red lines on her bodysuit.
* UndyingLoyalty: To her friends. She will do ''anything'' for them.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Wasabi, as described in TheGadfly above.
* WrenchWench: She's a mechanical engineer.

A big, neurotic plasma engineer and sushi chef, Wasabi wields plasma blades that can slice through anything.
----
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: His plasma blades are designed to cut through anything and he makes sure that he doesn't risk touching people with them.
* AdaptationNameChange: Shortened from "Wasabi No-Ginger" to "Wasabi". Justified as it's a nickname.
* AdaptationalComicRelief: In the comics, Wasabi was a disciplined and quiet warrior, not prone to OCD as he is here.
* {{Adorkable}}: He's a lovable, muscular ScienceHero who's also a complete neatnik.
* AllThereInTheManual: His skill in martial arts is only pointed out in supplemental materials, with Fred's file pointing out tai chi specifically (even though his combat technique with his dual blades doesn't quite match up) and his character stat card having his ''fighting'' skill stat at a point higher than resident badass [=GoGo=].
* AmbiguousDisorder: Wasabi has an apparent pathological need for order and planning, and quickly freaks out if it's disrupted.
* BadassBeard: Wasabi sports a [[{{Pun}} precised]] beard.
* BerserkButton: Downplayed. He doesn't fly into a rage but flips out when [=GoGo=] takes one of his tools out of its designated spot.
* BigOlEyebrows: Wasabi probably has the thickest eyebrows of his friends.
* BlackAndNerdy: Is black and developed laser-induced plasma technology.
* BlackBestFriend: To the rest of the team, but he has a fleshed-out personality.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: His plasma blades are generated on arm devices.
* CharacterDevelopment: He learns to improvise if needed, as revealed in the junior novelization.
-->'''Wasabi''': ''[in the junior novelization]'' I’m good, man! I don’t need a plan! Wasabi is winging it!
* CoolShades: A tie-in book has Wasabi inventing a pair of glasses that can see the germs on people.
* CowardlyLion:
** He's the most reluctant to be a superhero and often acts like a terrified little girl, but if his friends are in danger he will act, often before thinking.
** In the series, he tends to do a lot better once his adrenaline gets pumping.
* CulturedBadass: His hobbies include sustainable gardening, he's a practitioner of tai chi, and is a sushi chef.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Wasabi has dark brown hair and brown eyes.
* DreadlockRasta: Wears dreads in his normal and hero attire.
* DreadlockWarrior: He's a buff black guy with matching dreadlocks.
* DualWielding: His two plasma blades.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Wasabi is Japanese horseradish.
* EmbarrassingNickname: He spilled wasabi on his shirt ''one'' time.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His perfectly clean and ultra organized table of tools. He even has a coffee mug that measures portions!
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: Incorporates a lot of spinning when using his laser blades.
* FatalFlaw: PlayedForLaughs; his penchant for law and order will have him stop at red lights and put on a turn signal even when the BigBad is chasing him down and trying to kill him and his friends.
* GeniusBruiser: He's physically the largest human on the team, knows martial arts, and is super smart.
* GeniusSweetTooth: One of his two favorite foods is pie.
* GentleGiant: Biggest guy on the team, most reluctant to fight.
* HeroicBuild: He's got the size and stature of a classic superhero; irony being he's the least inclined to super heroics. This was done on purpose, Dan Gerson (one of the writers) notes that it was fun making the guy who looks the strongest be a risk averse "neatnik." It's also a bit of TruthInTelevision, as like many real world perfectionists, his perfectionism extends to ''[[FridgeBrilliance his body]]''.
* HonorBeforeReason: When the group is being chased by Yokai, Wasabi still stops at red lights and uses turn signals, even though no one else is there.
* LanternJawOfJustice: Wasabi has a noticeable jawline and is the most lawful, if neurotic of the team.
* LaserBlade: His armor has two plasma blades built into his arm cuffs which he uses in battle.
* LawfulStupid: He ''stopped'' on a traffic light when the murderous Yokai was chasing after him and his friends.
* LightningBruiser: While he may not be as fast as [=GoGo=], he has very quick reflexes, as shown during training when he easily cuts down all of the tennis balls shot at him from the tennis ball cannon, and is able to deflect all of Yokai's microbot spikes (while not overpowered, his lack of fighting experience was taken advantage of by Yokai who uses his microbots to grab Wasabi's feet and toss him across the room).
* MartialPacifist: Wasabi knows tai chi, but he is very reluctant to fight.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The Feminine Boy committed to order and screaming like a little girl to [=GoGo=]'s adrenaline junkie Masculine Girl.
* NeatFreak: To the point that he freaks out when [=GoGo=] messes up his meticulously organized set of tools.
* NervousWreck: Described as being "just a touch neurotic."
* NeverLiveItDown: InUniverse, Wasabi got that nickname after he spilled wasabi on his shirt. He's annoyed by the name, but nevertheless goes by it.
-->'''Wasabi''': I spilled wasabi on my shirt ''one time'', people! One time!
* NiceGuy: Wasabi is neurotic, but he's lawful, caring, and looks out for his friends and their health.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "Wasabi" is a nickname, and we never find out what his real name is.
* OnlySaneMan: Shares this role with [=GoGo=]. Whilst the other members of the team prefer to jump into action spontaneously, Wasabi would usually stand aside for a few moments to concoct a plan, eventually putting it into immediate, effective motion once he does. With the other members of the team being rather reckless at times, Wasabi's ultimate composure and ordinance can be a valuable source of prosperity among the team, specifically when dealing with crime-fighting.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Wasabi is the OnlySaneMan committed to precision and planning. However, when Yokai starts to hurt his friends, he deliberately yells at him. No plan at all.
* ThePerfectionist: "I have a system: there's a place for everything, everything in its place."
* RaceLift: In the source material, he was Japanese. Here, he is African-American.
* RealMenWearPink: Wasabi's hobbies include knitting and sustainable gardening.
* ScienceHero: His field of expertise among his team is applied physics.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: The largest and toughest-looking of the team, screams like a little girl when he's nearly crushed by a shipping container thrown by Yokai.
* TheSmartGuy: Although Hiro is the kid genius (and really, barring Fred, each of the team has a specialty in a specific science), his knack for precision and need for properly thought out plans and strategies apply to this position.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The sensible, cautious Straight Man to Fred's eccentric, zany Wise Guy.
* SuperOCD: Wasabi's bio describes him as a "neatnik," who likes everything organized and precise. Taken UpToEleven during the car chase when he stops at red lights and turns on his turn signal when needed, much to [=GoGo=]'s frustration.
* SweetTooth: One of Wasabi's favorite foods is pie (crust o.k.).
* TerrifiedOfGerms: He may be a germophobe, as he is shown wearing sterile gloves while working with his experiments and is the most grossed out by Fred's statements about how he rarely washes his clothes. He is also worried when everyone arrives to the abandoned Krei lab because it is quarantined.
* TookALevelInBadass:
** According to the junior novelization, Wasabi starts improvising by the end of the story.
** In "Countdown To Catastrophe", after losing to Momakase, Wasabi watches some instructional fencing videos online, improving enough to fight her on equal ground for most of the fight.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Sandwiches (w/No Crust), and Pie (Crust O.K.).
* {{Trekkie}}: {{Implied|Trope}}. One of the languages he is fluent in is ''Klingon''.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With [=GoGo=] as seen in her [[TheGadfly gadfly]] moment.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He mentions he has a fear of heights... while hanging on the arm of a ''flying'' Baymax.
-->'''Wasabi''': If I wasn't terrified of heights, I'd probably love this! But I'm terrified of heights, so I don't love it!

A perky and brilliant chemist, Honey uses all kinds of chemical concoctions in battle.
----
* ActionGirl: Honey Lemon uses her chemical concoctions to help during fights, usually for either trapping or blowing up.
* AdaptationalDyeJob: She has blonde hair in the movie. However, she becomes a red head in the television series.
* AdaptationalModesty: Her outfit in the comics includes a crop top exposing [[BareYourMidriff her midriff]] with skintight pants, as shown [[http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/181/7/b/big_hero_6_concept__honey_lemon_by_pixel_saurus-d55eol7.jpg here]]. In the film, she never shows any more skin than the other characters.
* {{Adorkable}}: Her character descriptions describe her as "peppy" and "goofy". Then there's her [[GeekPhysiques geeky physique]], and the almost childlike glee with which she demonstrates her "chemical metal embrittlement".
* AllThereInTheManual: According to Fred's Secret File, Honey Lemon is an excellent baker and and was a runner up on a cooking show.
* ArsenalAttire: Her purse creates small chemical-filled bombs that can do pretty much anything she needs. The strap on her purse with the balls? That's the ammunition feeder. The heart on the purse's face is a touchscreen that she uses to code in the formulas.
* BadassAdorable: She is an excitable, dorky ScienceHero.
* BadassBookworm: This girl can concoct almost any chemical compound she can imagine, without looking at the keys on her purse/weapon, off the top of her head. And her "chemical metal embrittlement" that she demonstrated in her introductory scene? In the first episode of the series, she uses it to nonchalantly turn a [[KillerRobot Baymax copy]] into dust.
* ChemistryCanDoAnything: Her purse is shown containing chemical compounds that create a wide variety of useful weapons such as restraining gel, freezing solutions, and explosives.
* TheChick: Comes part and parcel with being TheHeart of the team.
* CombatStilettos: A wedges variant is part of her super suit.
* CoolBigSis: Towards Hiro. For example, she is excited when they first meet, she then proceeds to kiss him on the cheek and hold his hand while showing him her chemistry work.
* CuddleBug: She's the most affectionate member of the team, and loves giving people hugs.
* DamselOutOfDistress: Honey gets cornered and attempts to shield herself by covering herself in a protective bubble that limits her vision and increases the danger of getting impaled by the microbots. Her solution? [[spoiler:Aim for the precise moment of the next attack, grab the oncoming enemy by the end to get back into the fight.]]
* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Although initially released images showed her to be visibly white, her skin is much darker in the actual film.
* DeathOrGloryAttack: She can detonate her purse to create an especially powerful explosion, with the obvious drawback being she has no weapons afterward.
* DisabledInTheAdaptation: In the inverse of Hiro, this Honey Lemon is shown needing to wear glasses.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Both of her names are foods.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: She kisses Hiro on the cheeks before demonstrating chemical-metal embrittlement to him.
* TheFashionista: [[AllThereInTheManual According to Fred's Secret File]], she's this. She makes her own clothes and runs an online boutique.
* GadgeteerGenius: In a side book, Honey invents a new form of electricity that runs purely on socks.
* GeekPhysiques: Very tall and lanky.
* GenkiGirl: ''Very'' excitable, especially in regards to chemistry.
* TheGlassesComeOff: She doesn't wear her accessory glasses when she's in her super suit.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Honey Lemon has blonde hair and is TheHeart of the group.
* TheHeart: According to the Press info: "Honey is the glue that holds the group together because of her empathetic, sweet personality and positive attitude."
* HiddenDepths:
** Of all her teammates, Honey is the most observant. Throughout their time as heroes, she manages to decode various pieces of evidence regarding the identity and motives of Yokai, having found his refurbished portal, as well as a recording revealing his true intentions.
** This geeky, sweet girl actually has an ''[[InHarmsWay unexpected love of danger]]''.
--->'''Honey''': ''[after setting her purse off in a ''massive'' explosion]'' '''Now ''that's'' a chemical reaction!'''
* HugeSchoolgirl: Well, huge college girl anyway. She's the tallest one in the cast sans Baymax, although some of that is thanks to her platform heels.
* LatinoIsBrown: Averted. Her skintone is only slightly darker than her other teammates (barring Wasabi, obviously), and her hair is blonde. TruthInTelevision, as there are Latino/-a people who share this phenotype.
** Given that she's [[AdaptationalDyeJob suddenly a redhead in the TV series,]] where her eyebrows are noticeably dark, she might not even ''be'' a natural blonde.
* {{Leitmotif}}: In the TV show - the only member to have one all their own, in fact. A whimsical, comically cherubic melody that plays during her more cheerful moments. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXW02i7sYIw It's also her]] [[LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn alarm tone.]]
* LongHairIsFeminine: Especially in comparison to [[TomBoyAndGirlyGirl GoGo]].
* MadScientist: Gives off this vibe during her intro sequence; helps that her field of choice makes it easiest to pull off the look. Expanded upon in the TV show, where of the group she's explicitly the most reckless in her work: her unchecked experiments are stated to have quite a few catastrophes under their belt (including blowing up her apartment more than once, and freezing her old roommate solid necessitating her moving in with Gogo), and [[CloudCuckooLander she's comically prone to extreme]] [[{{Pun}} solutions]] (once making Hiro a memory wiping elixir on the off chance he needed it. He didn't). She also created a compound capable of ''melting human beings alive'' and then left it unattended, causing that very thing to happen to a would-be thief.
* MeaningfulName: She's as sweet, warm and soothing as you would expect someone named "Honey Lemon" to be.
* {{Meganekko}}: Her civilian clothes include NerdGlasses. They highlight cuteness and the fact that she's a brilliant chemist.
* MinidressOfPower: Her super suit features a minidress over a bodysuit.
* NerdGlasses: While large and round, Honey's glasses are also attractive and fashionable.
* NeverGiveTheCaptainAStraightAnswer: Twice, she is featured drawing attention to things without straight out saying what it is. A downplayed example in that, in each case, the team is just a few feet away or it's been recorded on video and trying to describe what she's seen would actually take longer than having them just see it for themselves.
** At the island, she asks the team to look at the room where the teleportation experiment was carried out.
--->"Uh, guys, you might want to see this."
** Later she does this to Hiro while handing him a USB stick with the video feed from the experiment.
--->"Hiro, we found something you should see."
* NiceGirl: Honey Lemon is the most affectionate and loving member of Big Hero 6.
* NoodlePeople: She's rather trim.
* OffModel: While it isn't obvious at first, Honey Lemon's face has a slightly different construction depending on whether or not she's in her suit.
* OilSlick: One of several chemical mixtures she can make is a slippery liquid [[spoiler:that backfires when she gets hit by a wayward shot from [=GoGo=], causing her to throw it in [=GoGo's=] path]].
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "Honey Lemon" is a nickname, and we never find out what her real name is.[[note]]It's "Aiko Miyazaki" in the comics, but considering her RaceLift from Japanese to Latina, that's probably not the case for her movie counterpart.[[/note]]
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Doesn't really have an accent until it comes to words with "R's" in them, at which point a heavy Spanish accent slips out. Most obvious when she uses Hiro and [=GoGo's=] names (the latter of which she pronounces Go-Ho). In an interview, Honey's voice actress said she did it on purpose to accentuate Honey's Hispanic heritage. Interestingly, due to Spanish and Japanese having similar "R" sounds, this means Honey says the name "Hiro" like a Japanese native would.
* PinkIsFeminine: Honey's the most feminine of the main characters and her favorite color is, to no one's surprise, pink. Her super suit is pink and purple, and her glasses have pink frames. Even the chemical metal embrittlement she makes when she's introduced is pink.
* ThePollyanna: Hiro describes her as "the happiest person in the world." And true to that, Honey Lemon sees the bright side in any situation.
* PromotedToLoveInterest: Inverted. Here, she's a good friend and a big sister figure to Hiro, while in the comics she was one of his love interests.
* RaceLift: In the original Marvel comics, she was a blonde Japanese girl, but here she's a blonde Latina (no doubt to her voice actress being Latina).
* RapunzelHair: Honey's hair reaches to her waist.
* RunningGag: Her tall stature is what often makes people who either don't know her name or don't remember it to simply call her "Tall Girl"-- in particular, Karmi in her fanfiction about Big Hero 6, and Globby.
-->'''Honey Lemon:''' I'm really not ''that'' tall.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The [[GenkiGirl thrill-seeking]], peppy Energetic Girl to Hiro's low energy, shy Savvy Guy.
* ScienceHero: The most classic in form after Hiro; her preferred field is chemical engineering.
* ShesGotLegs: Wears a mini-skirt to battle, showing off her crazy-long, slender legs.
* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: A chemistry expert who wears NerdGlasses.
* SmokeOut: One of the many chemical mixtures she could create deploys a thick smokescreen when combusted.
* SpeechImpediment: She speaks with a slight lisp.
* StatuesqueStunner: Honey Lemon is a BadassAdorable, NiceGirl and is 5'10" (6'2" in heels).
* SuperCuteSuperpowers: Colorful balls produced by a purse that make glittery gels and sparkly clouds. In the series some of the gel cushions she makes are shaped like cute animals such as chibi cat heads.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The girly girl to [=GoGo=]'s tomboy; being more fashionable, excitably dorky, and having a purse with her super suit, which is pink and purple.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Onigiri, Green Tea, and Unadon.
* UnlimitedWardrobe: She's been seen in her power suit, her barista uniform, another everyday uniform, and what appears to be lounging-around clothes, with her hair in a bun.
* WakeupMakeup: Played with. In the series episode "Big Roommates 2", she wakes up one morning and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiQfZKr1jU4 shakes her hair into place]].
* WeakButSkilled: Honey has the least amount of armor on her super suit and her attacks mostly consist of her chemical concoctions.

School mascot by day, school mascot by night, Fred wears a special suit that grants him various powers.
----
* AdaptationalComicRelief: Unlike his source counterpart, who was TheStoic, this incarnation serves as more of a FunPersonified, PluckyComicRelief character.
* {{Adorkable}}: Fred is self-proclaimed "science enthusiast" and has an obsession with comic book heroes and villains.
* AllThereInTheManual: The supplemental materials show that Fred [[NonIdleRich is an English major who devotes much of his spare time to doing charity work, as well as auditing the university's courses.]]
* AmbiguouslyBi: When listing possible ships that Big Hero 6 fans could ship in the episode "Fan Friction", he says he's most excited about "Fredsabi", because Wasabi is so cool-looking. He also admires Liv Amara's assistant Chris's good looks in "Prey Date".
* AscendedFanboy: He's a comic book nerd who becomes an actual superhero, and admits that being chased by Yokai is both terrifying and awesome. His suit is based on his favorite kaiju, a monster named Krogar.
-->'''Fred''': That mask... black suit... We're under attack from a supervillain, people! How cool is that! I mean, it's scary, obviously, but how cool!
* TheBigGuy: Lacking the intellectual prowess of the rest of the team, but more than making up for it in enthusiasm, Fred charges headfirst into danger at every opportunity, while the rest of the team focuses more on strategy.
* BigGuyFatalitySyndrome: Parodied; he is comically taken down in the group's first skirmish with Yokai.
* BilingualBackfire: When he takes his friends to his house.
--> '''Fred''': Welcome to ''mi casa'', that's French for "front door".\\
'''Honey''': It's really... ''not''.[[note]] It's Spanish for "my house." [[/note]]
* BlueIsHeroic: Fred's powered kaiju suit is mainly blue, with a few orange spikes.
* BreathWeapon: His {{kaiju}} suit allows him to 'breathe' fire.
* TheCasanova: [[AllThereInTheManual In Fred's Secret Files]], he describes himself as a "player".
* {{Catchphrase}}: "It's Fred time!"
* ChekhovsSkill: His sign spinning.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He comes off as this in his debut scene by first introducing himself in the mascot costume and talking about inventions he asked his friends to make--including an invisible sandwich, which he then demonstrates eating.
* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: Downplayed. He and his friends do occasionally refer to his superhero self as "Fredzilla", his moniker from the comics.
* CrimefightingWithCash: Sure, everyone else has the skills to weaponize their tech, but Fred manages to supply money, materials, a lab/workshop and his home as a literal HomeBase.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: A {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who managed to defeat [[spoiler:Yokai's microbots just by ''sign spinning'']].
* DidntThinkThisThrough: In "Kentucky Kaiju", he decides to have a perfect 1:1 scale replica of the eponymous movie monster made. When asked what he plans to do with it, Fred admits that he didn't think that far ahead.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: He casually introduces himself while in a school mascot costume, and also reveals that he's asked his friends to use their scientific knowledge to give him super abilities (like [[MythologyGag turn into a fire-breathing lizard]]), or develop a shrink ray or [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers an invisible sandwich]].
* FunPersonified: Fred is the most fun-loving, energetic member of the team.
* GenreSavvy:
** His vast comic book knowledge becomes useful to the team, and he even makes a solid guess as to who Yokai is and why (an [[CorruptCorporateExecutive evil rich guy]]). When the ''real'' identity of Yokai is revealed, he realizes that this is a {{revenge}} story.
** In the series premiere, he's convinced that Big Hero 6 is still needed because they've shown to San Fransokyo that there are people who can protect it from the forces of evil and defeating Yokai was only their first step. [=GoGo=] dismisses it, [[ThisIsReality saying that this is real life and not fiction]]. Oh, how wrong she was.
** In the Season 2 premiere, he goes on a tangent about how the defeat of Obake was [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse "Phase 1" of the Big Hero-verse]] and that they're now entering "Phase 2", where bigger things will be coming. Also counts as LeaningOnTheFourthWall.
* GRatedStoner: Fred fits a lot of the stereotypes associated with stoners - being a goofy cloudcuckoolander from California - but no drug use is ever implied.
* HeroicLineage: TheStinger reveals that [[spoiler:his dad (who's voiced by and [[InkSuitActor strongly resembles]] Creator/StanLee) is also a superhero.]]
* HiddenDepths: The essential guide reveals that he devotes much of his spare time to doing charity work and is a self-professed "science enthusiast".
* HulkSpeak: Occasionally.
-->'''Fred''': Rocket fist make Freddie so happy!
* InASingleBound: One of his suit's abilities is the "super jump".
* JumpedAtTheCall: When Hiro decides to form a superhero team to catch Yokai, Fred immediately gets excited and is the first to jump on board with the idea.
-->"I like where this is heading!"
* {{Kaiju}}: He's a big fan of them, and he's later able to essentially become a human-sized one thanks to his super suit.
* KidAppealCharacter: Applies to him whether he is in or out of his super suit. He has a very likable and outgoing personality and his super suit looks a lot like an alien lizard monster, making kids love the unique suit design and some younger kids thinking that Fred is actually the super suit itself. There are even plush toys that are based on the suit.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: He's the only human in the group who isn't a genius in any kind of scientific field--which is not to say he's unintelligent. He's also the only one in a monster suit instead of power armor.
* LeeroyJenkins: The first thing he does when he and his friends encounter Yokai again is to automatically run towards and power-jump to him.
* LineageComesFromTheFather: Apparently, Fred gets his inclination toward the [[spoiler:superhero life]] from his father.
* LonelyRichKid: A mild example. Fred has his awesome friends, but he gets lonely from the absence of his parents.
* ManChild: His ecstatic reaction to being chased and nearly killed by [[BigBad Yokai]] implies he is one. His room in his house looks like a child's room, despite Fred being ''at least'' in his late teens or early twenties. He even admits he's a man-child in "Fred's Bro-Tillion".
* {{Mascot}}: He serves as San Fransokyo Tech's school mascot.
* MetaphorIsMyMiddleName: In "Internabout":
-->'''Fred:''' Patrol is my middle name! Well, actually, it's "Flamarion", my mother's maiden name. But still, pretty close.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Fred turns sign spinning into a superpower.
* MythologyGag: He sports a number, but a rather notable one is that his school mascot costume is very similar to his Fredzilla appearance in the comics.
* NiceGuy: Fred is an absolute sweetheart. Further cemented in that he's involved in non-profit charity work.
* NiceHat: Sports a Krogar beanie.
* NiceToTheWaiter: Greets his butler jovially and offers him a fist-bump.
* TheNicknamer: Gave Honey, [=GoGo=], and Wasabi their nicknames, and is the first to call the villain Yokai.
* NonIdleRich: Fred is an English major who devotes much of his spare time to doing charity work, as well as auditing the university's courses.
* OddNameOut: Has the most ordinary name of Big Hero 6 along with Hiro. Justified because he was the one to come up with the other team members' odd nicknames.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Although generally hyperactive throughout the film (even when being chased by Yokai in the car chase), Fred's affable persona drops when [[spoiler:Hiro expresses his desire to kill Callaghan]], replaced by quiet concern for Hiro's well-being and by fear of Baymax's [[spoiler:shift in personality]].
* {{Otaku}}: Loves everything related to kaiju and comic books.
* ThePigPen: He wears a single pair of underwear in four different ways before washing it.
* PlayingWithFire: As mentioned, he can breathe fire with his suit.
* PoweredArmor: All the other super suits are for protection more than anything--Fred's super jump boosters make his suit closer to this trope.
* RaceLift: In the source material, he was of Ainu (an indigenous group in Japan) descent. Here, he is Caucasian-American.
* RememberedICouldFly: During the climactic battle, when Fred is being pulled in two directions, he yells out that his arms are going to be ripped off, before remembering he is in a suit and can pull his real arms out.
* RepetitiveName: He reveals in a throwaway line in "Baymax Returns" that his full name is Frederick Frederickson the Fourth.
* RichIdiotWithNoDayJob: The traditional interpretation is zig-zagged -- as shown in the [[AllThereInTheManual supplemental materials]], Fred doesn't exactly have an actual day job. He does, however, do quite a bit helping others.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: While his claim about [[spoiler:Krei being Yokai was eventually proven wrong, Krei did have a hand, albeit accidental, in the real culprit's descent into villainy.]]
* SecretlyWealthy: Fred tells the team he knows a safe place. The team is shocked that he's about to just walk into some rich guy's BigFancyHouse - but it's even stranger for them to find out that he ''lives'' there:
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': I thought you lived under a ''bridge''.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The eccentric, zany Wise Guy to Wasabi's sensible, cautious Straight Man.
* TheTeamBenefactor: It's his considerable resources that allow the team to build their gear and train.
* TokenWhite: He's the only white member of the titular team, and works alongside Hiro (half-white half-Japanese), Wasabi (black), Honey Lemon (Latina) and [=GoGo=] (Korean).
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tacos al Pastor & Espresso. [[spoiler: Invisible Sandwich.]]
* WellDoneSonGuy: Even before learning his father is a superhero, Fred looked up to his father. When he does find out, he wants to live up to his dad's legacy.
* WhatExactlyIsHisJob: Fred comes off as this at the beginning--he's hanging around a technical school that is hard to get into and doesn't understand "science", but later he is revealed to be a RichIdiotWithNoDayJob.
* WrongGenreSavvy: While his deduction that Yokai is [[spoiler: Alistair Krei]] is pretty logical in the setting of a comic book (with him making several citations to that effect), dosing it with reality leads the team to conclude that it'd be way too high-profile for him to be Yokai. It turns out that Yokai is actually [[spoiler: Professor Callaghan]].
** In the series, some of his assumptions turned out to be wrong, and he [[DisappointedInYou expresses disappointment]] that the villains don't even follow the usual cliches.

[[folder:General]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bh6_team_transparent.png]]
The six main heroes of the movie.
----
* AdaptationalNationality: The team go from being Japanese to American, though the AlternateUniverse {{Americasia}} setting means they're all mildly culturally Japanese, and Hiro is still half-Japanese ethnically.
* AllThereInTheManual: A lot of side information about them (favorite foods, hobbies, and even college admission forms) are seen in other material.
* BadassBookworm: Outside of Fred and Baymax, the other members of ''Big Hero 6'' are a bunch of science nerds who use their talents in various fields (Wasabi's laser-induced plasma, [=GoGo=]'s mag-lev wheels, Honey's chemistry expertise, and Hiro's robotics know-how) to become superheroes.
* BadassCrew: Evolve into this after [[spoiler:taking on Yokai/Callaghan a second time.]]
* BrainyBrunette: As students of the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology they are all very intelligent and technically adept in their respective fields of study. It also happens that quite a few of them have black/brown hair like Hiro, [=GoGo=], Wasabi, and Tadashi.
* ClarkKenting: With the exception of Fred (who uses a full body costume), the team really [[SecretPublicIdentity doesn't go to great lengths to hide their secret identities]], though most people still can't tell they're the same.
* ColorCodedCharacters: The titular team while in their hero suits each have their own color scheme.
** Baymax = Red, with purple highlights
** Hiro = Purple, with red highlights
** [=GoGo=] = Yellow and black
** Wasabi = Green and blue, apart from his iconic orange headband
** Fred = Blue with orange highlights, yellow "eyes"
** Honey Lemon = Pink, with orange highlights and darker purples. Her chemical balls also default to warm colors like orange, red, and purple before being injected and thrown.
* FiveManBand: The team is composed of five engineering students from San Fransokyo Institute of Technology and Baymax.
** Hiro is TheLeader and his quest to stop Yokai who stole his microbot design brings the group together in the first place.
** Baymax is part of a BigGuyLittleGuy relationship with Hiro and together they form a synergistic BrainsAndBrawn duo with regards to their role on the team.
** [=GoGo=] is TheLancer and her tough, assertive, confident character traits are a sharp contrast to Hiro.
** Wasabi is TheSmartGuy. Although his physique actually makes him the largest member of this group of geniuses, he is the one who actively petitions coming up with a plan before the team launches into action.
** Honey Lemon is TheChick who provides emotional support to the others and is an all around nice girl. She also acts as TheHeart of the team.
** Fred is TheBigGuy who while lacking the intelligence of the others, has the most physically expressive powers and gleefully rushes in to fight his opponents head-on.
* FiveTokenBand: Due to the RaceLift: Hiro is biracial (half Japanese and half Caucasian), Wasabi is black, Honey Lemon is Hispanic, Fred is white, and [=GoGo=] is Korean.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble:
** Hiro, Phlegmatic--Witty but a bit introverted, BrilliantButLazy, and very passionate about what he dedicates himself to.
** [=GoGo=], Choleric--Snarky, a bit of a short temper, practical and quick-thinking.
** Honey Lemon and Fred, both Sanguine--emotional, extroverted, kind-hearted and compassionate, and in Fred's case, a bit ditzy at times.
** Wasabi, Melancholic--obsessed with order and detail, easily nervous and quickest to panic, and in general the most awkward.
** Baymax, Eclectic--always there to help, but in general caring for others' health and general well-being than what is right and wrong, and thus the most neutral.
* HotScientist: Most of the main characters are good looking.
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler:Using a hologram of Tadashi to fool Hiro is when Big Hero 6 treat Obake as a personal enemy]].
* NerdActionHero: All of them started out as nerds and grow into action heroes over the course of the movie.
* OddFriendship: Even prior to Hiro joining them and the team being formed, they all get along with each other fine in spite of their wildly differing personality traits. Honey Lemon and [=GoGo=] are the most notable case, with the former being an optimist, and the latter being fairly cynical.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Honey, [=GoGo=] and Wasabi are all nicknames courtesy of [[TheNicknamer Fred]]. Their real names are unknown. [[note]] Jamie Chung [[https://twitter.com/jamiechung1/status/529330930645622784 mentioned on her Twitter]] that [=GoGo=]'s real name is Ethel. [[/note]]
* ProudToBeAGeek: Invoked and implied throughout. In fact, this whole movie could be seen as a nerd empowerment piece.
* RaceLift: Every member of the originally all-Japanese team: Wasabi is black, Honey is Hispanic, Fred is white, [=GoGo=] is Korean, and Hiro is half Japanese and half white.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: Our hero team consists of a teen genius, a squishy robot, a high-strung sushi chef, a daredevil courier, a lanky chemistry geek, and a comic book fanboy. In their first fight, they end up accidentally interfering with each other.
* ScienceHero: [=GoGo=], Honey Lemon, Wasabi and Hiro are this, each with a distinct specialty that plays into their signature weaponry.
* {{Sentai}}: They're a color-coded Japanese-esque superhero team. Not much else you can call it.
* StockSuperheroDayJobs: Of the ''"Student"'' and ''"Freelance"'' variety. Hiro is the former, which is believable for someone his age, regardless of his vast intellect. The rest of the team are graduate students, but also fall into the latter category. Wasabi works as a sushi chef, Honey Lemon is a part-time barista despite her talent in chemistry, and [=GoGo=] is a bike courier. And despite being mistaken for a comic-book fanboy who looks like he lives under a filthy bridge, Fred actually comes from an extremely wealthy family that owns an enormous mansion and a personal vacation island to boot.
* SuperTeam: The titular Big Hero 6 group.
* ThouShaltNotKill: It's more or less their code. Only once did Hiro almost violate it.
* TookALevelInBadass: Each member of the team gets an opportunity to think outside the box to deal with a difficult situation and become a better superhero. Even Baymax is shown at the end to be capable of organizing his own attacks without relying on Hiro to call them out for him.
* TrueCompanions: They were already close before they became a superhero team and only decided to form one to catch the person responsible for Tadashi's death.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: [=GoGo=] Tomago and Honey Lemon.
* UnlikelyHero: All of them. Even resident badass [=GoGo=]. As Wasabi lampshades;
-->'''Wasabi''': We can't go against that guy! We're ''nerds!''
* VagueAge: The ages of Hiro's allies are never disclosed, although considering they're all college students (and doing work far beyond freshman level), it's probably reasonable to ballpark them as being somewhere around their early 20s. An episode in TheSeries about Wasabi's birthday features him getting a cake with 21 candles.
* WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld: What the team's lifestyle becomes after [[spoiler:Yokai is defeated and Baymax is rebuilt]].
* WeaponOfChoice: Each member fights with a weapon of their scientific field.

A teen genius who initially spent his free time participating in illegal robot fights, he organizes a team of heroes to catch the villain Yokai.
----
* AbledInTheAdaptation: Unlike the comics, this Hiro doesn't need glasses.
* AdaptationNameChange: A minor case--Hiro's last name was "Takachiho" originally in the comics. Now, it's "Hamada". This is due to the latter being a more realistic name than the [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign former]].
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: While Hiro Takachiho wasn't bad-looking, Hiro Hamada looks more adorable.
* AdaptationalJerkass: A teenage delinquent variant. When the movie first opens, Hiro engages in illegal botfighting, and he fully knows how illegal it is. This is something his comic counterpart hasn't done.
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: He's only 14, is {{Adorkable}}, and acts like someone twice his age.
* {{Adorkable}}: Clumsy, awkward, messy-haired, and loves to build robots. The slight gap in his teeth only adds to his charm.
* AlliterativeName: '''H'''iro '''H'''amada. Notable because this is an AdaptationNameChange.
* AlwaysSecondBest: It's implied that he feels he'll never be better than Tadashi.
* AnimeHair: A DownplayedExample; while it does have an Anime-ish look, it mostly just looks [[MessyHair messy]], though it still stands out compared to everyone else's hair.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Actually, he and Tadashi get along quite well, but Hiro's habit of illegal botfighting strains their relationship. {{Deconstructed|Trope}} when it gets them both arrested and makes their aunt have to close her café early.
* AntiHero: Surprisingly, despite his name, Hiro spends the majority of the film as a KnightInSourArmor anti-hero, and an UnscrupulousHero at his worst.
* AsianAndNerdy: Hiro is half Japanese, half white, and is a robotics genius who graduated high school when he was 13.
* BadassAdorable: He's the smallest of the team and doesn't have any fighting abilities or special powers built into his armor, but he still fights alongside the others by commanding Baymax.
* BadLiar: While he managed alright at the botfight club, his attempts to lie to Aunt Cass are incredibly awkward. Luckily she was distracted, so she didn't notice.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: In general, Hiro is an Adorkable character but dismissing his brother's sacrifice while he is still grief-stricken causes him to become angry enough to [[spoiler:order Baymax to destroy Yokai/Callaghan]].
* BigBrotherWorship: Hiro greatly admires Tadashi and even got involved in [[WordOfGod robotics because his brother was involved]].
* BigEyesLittleEyes: His rather large eyes give him a cute appeal, as seen in his first scene.
* BigOlEyebrows: Hiro has some thick eyebrows.
* ABoyAndHisX: A Boy and His Robot. Baymax is his best friend and helped [[spoiler:fill the void when Hiro's brother died]].
* BrilliantButLazy: Hiro is described as having "above average intelligence which he rarely puts into use." Case in point, he graduated high school at the age of ''thirteen'', then spent much of the next year slacking off and fighting in illegal back-alley robot fights. Various supplemental materials make it clear that Hiro is far and away the smartest person on the team, and while the other members certainly have their specialties, it takes Hiro to miniaturize their equipment for practical use.
* BrokenAce: He's a genius in terms of robotics and engineering and his specialty appears to be improving (particularly miniaturizing) other people's tech. His microbot demonstration project involves miniaturizing Callaghan's magnetic servos. When Big Hero 6 is formed, he takes each team member's core technology and adapts it down into super suits for them including PoweredArmor for Fred and Baymax. However, his mental and emotional state becomes strained with grief after Tadashi dies and he discovers Yokai's identity.
* ButNotTooForeign: Half Japanese and half white, and notably the first protagonist of a Disney film to be of mixed race.
* CallingYourAttacks: He calls out Baymax's attacks. Justified because Baymax doesn't know when to attack, so Hiro has to tell him what to do.
* CharacterDevelopment: Hiro was initially a brazen, cocky, antisocial prodigy who only saw Baymax as a tool of revenge for his brother's death. However, thanks to the support of his friends and loved ones, he was eventually able to let go of his anger, grief, and sadness, allowing him to heal and become a better, more balanced superhero team leader.
* CharacterTic: He pushes his bangs back when he gets excited or nervous.
* CheerfulChild: [[https://68.media.tumblr.com/503886f6bab3cac510331eb42207ce95/tumblr_nf633s1kUF1qh97ido1_1280.png When he was younger.]]
* ChildishToothGap: He has a noticeable gap between his front teeth. He's precocious for his age, however the tooth gap helps show that he is still only a kid.
* ChildProdigy: The prequel manga shows Hiro as a budding genius.
* ClassicalAntiHero: What he ultimately becomes.
* ComesGreatResponsibility: Part of Hiro's character is based around him learning that his skills and his tech to be used helping others and not himself. The series places heavy emphasis on him learning the "responsibility" part, and the key to that is patience and discipline.
* DeadpanSnarker: Part of his [[Film/IronMan Stark-like]] behavior.
-->'''Baymax''': I fail to see how flying makes me a better healthcare companion.\\
'''Hiro''': ''I'' fail to see how ''you'' fail to see that it's AWESOME!
* DecompositeCharacter: In the source comic, Hiro was more mature and the builder of Baymax. These traits were moved over to Tadashi for the film adaptation.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: He loses a close male relative (his late brother Tadashi who died attempting to save Callaghan) and lives with his Aunt Cass. This situation is quite similar to Peter Parker, a.k.a. [[Franchise/SpiderMan The Amazing Spider-Man]], who also lives with his Aunt May and his Uncle Ben was killed by a burglar.
* DubNameChange: In the Korean and Mandarin Chinese dub, Hiro is renamed "Hero Armada".
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: We first see Hiro when he competes in a battle bots arena, where after he drops his [[ObfuscatingStupidity noob façade]], he is shown to be very cocky and confident when in combat. Instead of bringing a big, strong, robot like the other fighters do, he instead uses a small robot that pulls itself apart to escape being smashed and mechanically dismantles Yama's robot rather than simply destroying it with brute force, showcasing intelligence, creativity and a willingness to think outside the box. He also shows that he has the guts to hustle in an illegal bot fight, demonstrating both AntiHero tendencies and recklessness.
-->'''Hiro''': Hey, I'm as surprised as you are. Beginner's luck.
* {{Fanboy}}: Of Professor Callaghan. He even gushes when he first meets him, [[spoiler:making his reveal as Yokai all the more sadder]].
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Foolish to Tadashi's Responsible. While both brothers are highly intelligent, Hiro is at first unwilling to do anything productive with his genius, spending most of his time participating in illegal robot fights.
* FriendlessBackground: Hiro never had any friends due to them being jealous of his vast intelligence.
* GradeSkipper: Hiro graduated high school at the age of 13.
* HandshakeSubstitute:
** He and Tadashi would fist bump and then make explosion noises.
** He and Baymax would bump fist, Hiro makes explosion noise, and Baymax make a "batalala" sound.
* HappilyAdopted: Even before CharacterDevelopment, he had a good loving relationship with his Aunt Cass.
* HeartbrokenBadass: The death of Tadashi sent him into severe depression.
* TheHero: It's not just his name--his personal quest is what drives the formation of Big Hero 6, which he takes charge of (or in a sense, is given charge of, as the rest of the team join in of their own accord, not necessarily his); he is also responsible for the design of each member's respective suit.
* HeroWithAUniqueName: Hiro, the protagonist with the only AlliterativeName, as well as being the "[[MeaningfulName hero]]" of the story. Also, the rest of the superhero team are OnlyKnownByTheirNickname.
* HiddenDepths: He is shown to be a good artist when he draws a copy of the "silent sparrow" symbol after just a glimpse.
* {{Hikikomori}}: In the movie, after Tadashi perishes in the fire, Hiro isolates himself in his room for two weeks, until he stubs his toe and Baymax responds to Hiro's cry of pain.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: He tends to act cocky and arrogant, but much of that is a mask to hide his shyness and insecurities.
-->'''Hiro''': ''[to Tadashi]'' What, go to college like you? So people can tell me stuff I already know?
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Hiro claims that what his parents would have thought of bot battling doesn't matter because they died when he was only 3. The insensitive part is that he says this in front of his older brother, who would have been at ''least'' 7 when they died and therefore has a tangible memory of the people Hiro just completely disregarded.
* JerkassBall: Picks it up after learning [[spoiler:Callaghan is the villain and having the team actively prevent "combat-mode" Baymax from trying to destroy him, a grief-stricken Hiro says he shouldn't have asked for their help in the first place, and plans to work alone. He then climbs aboard Baymax and rockets away. Fortunately he is able to overcome his grief-driven jerkass behavior, but in the meantime he left the team behind and stranded on the island.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Underneath all his arrogance and cockiness, Hiro is actually a pretty sweet kid. He transforms into a full-on NiceGuy by the end.
* KidHero: Or is it Kid Hiro? Hiro is the main protagonist and is 14 years old.
* TheKidWithTheRemoteControl: An asset that Hiro brings to the team is that Baymax follows his instructions and Hiro has outfitted him with PoweredArmor. Subverted in that Baymax obeys Hiro because he considers Hiro his patient and is trying to help him work through his grief over the loss of Tadashi. However, when Hiro orders Baymax to open his access port, he refuses because he knows Hiro will then use him [[spoiler:to terminate Callaghan]].
* LittleMissConArtist: In the Bot Battle arena, Hiro pretends to be a novice to catch his opponents off guard.
* MagnetismManipulation: Instead of just using his magnetic gauntlets to attach to Bayman, the TV series has him use them offensive in a few circumstances, most notably during "Food Fight".
* MeaningfulName: A common meaning for Hiro's name is "abundance," and he is shown to have a very abundant mind. In addition, there's the obvious looking and sounding like the English word for hero.
* MessyHair: The essential guide reveals he thinks uncombed hair looks cool. In ''The Series'' episode "Big Problem", when Granville combs Hiro's hair in preparation for Liv Amara's visit, it [[StubbornHair goes back to it's usual messy style after a few seconds]].
* MicrobotSwarm: He created the microbots, as shown in that page image. They're capable of coming together in order to take many different forms, allowing them to perform complex tasks that would normally require many human hands with a thought projected through a transceiver.
* MixedAncestry: He's half Japanese and half white.
* MoodSwinger: According to Baymax's scanner, he's going through pubescent mood swings.
* {{Nephewism}}: He and Tadashi were raised by their Aunt Cass after their parents died.
* NiceGuy: What Hiro fully becomes after some much needed {{character development}}.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: At the bot fight club, he presents himself as a naive, timid kid with a seemingly harmless robot in order to trick his opponent into betting a lot of money.
* PrimaryColorChampion: His civilian clothing consists of a red shirt with a blue sweatshirt.
* PurpleIsPowerful: His super suit is primarily purple. Although the suit itself doesn't give him any special combat abilities its color denotes his role as the team leader and supervisor of Baymax's attacks.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Has jet black hair and a pale complexion.
* RedOniBlueOni: The brazen, impulsive Red Oni to Tadashi's mature, responsible Blue Oni.
* RejectedApology: [[spoiler:Following his meeting with Professor Callaghan in prison, Hiro is told by his former idol of how he regrets his actions that led to Tadashi's death. Hiro's response is as realistic as a teenager who still grieves for his lost brother can get.]]
-->'''Hiro''': Tadashi would want me to forgive you... someday I hope I can.
* RevengeBeforeReason: His primary flaw turns out to be this, [[spoiler:as shown when, upon finding out that Callaghan is Yokai, he tries to kill him by reprogramming Baymax to follow his order to destroy]].
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The low energy, shy Savvy Guy to Honey's [[GenkiGirl thrill-seeking]], peppy Energetic Girl.
* ScienceHero: A prodigy in assorted scientific fields in general, the film in particular focuses mostly on his incredible talents in robotics.
* SecretIdentityVocalShift:
** In "Small Hiro One", he deepens his voice while suited up twice: once to Yama at the beginning of the episode and once to Karmi at the end.
** In "Fan Friction", he adopts the deep voice again when captured with Karmi and the rest of the team.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Stated to the team before going to rescue Karmi in "Fan Friction".
* ShippingTorpedo: He tries to find Aunt Cass a boyfriend in "Aunt Cass Goes Out" [[ShipperWithAnAgenda so that she'd be too distracted to find out he and his friends are Big Hero 6]]. However, she quickly develops an interest in Alistair Krei, who asks her out on a date. Hiro quickly tries to sabotage their date so that "Uncle Krei" isn't a reality.
* ShonenHair: Not as extreme as most examples, but it's there.
* ShorterMeansSmarter: Hiro is the shortest member of Big Hero 6 and the most intelligent.
* ShrinkingViolet: He gradually became this when people mocked him for his supreme intelligence. It shows during the beginning of his microbot presentation and after Tadashi's death.
* SmartPeopleBuildRobots: He's incredibly good at building battle-bots.
* SociallyAwkwardHero: {{Justified|Trope}}, given how he was made fun of because of his intelligence and never really talked to anyone other than his brother and aunt.
* SpikyHair: Though, they are not necessarily protruding.
* StevenUlyssesPerhero: In the same vein as Hiro Nakamura from ''Series/{{Heroes}}'', his first name (which is Japanese) is pronounced the same way as the English word "hero". Hiro Takachiho, the comic book character he's based on, is the same way. Or to go even further back, Hiro Protagonist from ''Literature/SnowCrash''.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The Wise Guy who spends his free time competing in illegal bot-fights in dark alleys to Tadashi's Straight Man who goes to college and encourages Hiro to do the same.
* SweetTooth: Implied. Gummi-Bears are one of his two favorite foods.
* TagalongKid: Inverted. Hiro is both the youngest member of the team and TheLeader, with Baymax and the four young adults tagging along with him.
* TallPoppySyndrome: The victim of this in the manga prequel, in which he was continually beaten and bullied after his prodigial talent was discovered, gradually leading to his lack of enthusiasm for schoolwork.
* TeensAreShort: He's stated to be 5'0". Lampshaded in "Obake Yashiki", in which the haunted house host Mr. Ohare says he's "a little on the diminutive side" after he objects to being called a "little boy" since he's 14. And in the "Big {{Chibi}} 6" short "[[https://youtu.be/fih6ZDET9Xc Road Trip]]," he dreams of being the tallest person he knows.
* TeenGenius: Hiro's character bio on the Disney Movies site says, "Robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada has the mind of a genius—and the heart of a 14-year-old: his state-of-the-art battle-bots dominate the underground bot fights held in the dark corners of San Fransokyo."
* TookALevelInBadass: Hiro finally uses his smarts for something greater.
* TookALevelInIdealism: Hiro started off using his incredible intellect to hustle in illegal bot-fights. By the end, he sees the true value of using his inventions for helping others and doing actual good, rather for his own selfish gain.
* TookALevelInKindness: Working through his grief over Tadashi's death leads to him having a better appreciation towards inventing and [[spoiler:apologizing to Baymax and his friends for his rash actions]].
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Gummy candy & hot wings.
* TragicKeepsake: He doesn't wear it, but Tadashi's hat survived the fire that killed him. Hiro keeps it in their shared room on Tadashi's bed.
* TranquilFury: [[spoiler:His order to Baymax to destroy Callaghan is eerily calm, just to show how far he's going in his revenge for Tadashi's death]].
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: He [[spoiler:orders Baymax to destroy Callaghan]] after [[spoiler:finding out that he was Yokai and that he is indirectly responsible for Tadashi's death]]. He doesn't even hesitate, even when [[spoiler:he has to rip out Baymax's healthcare chip]].
* UnlimitedWardrobe: He has a variety of t-shirts, most of which have robots on them.
* TheUnsmile: He makes a pretty nervous smile when trying to hide Baymax from his aunt Cass.
* WeakButSkilled: Unlike the rest of the team, Hiro's armor lacks any real ability, as his true power lies within his genius. As mentioned above, however, his suit enables him to hold onto Baymax with magnetic pads whenever the robot takes flight, with him aboard, as well as providing protection as armor. His helmet is also equipped with a communication device, enabling him contact with the rest of the team members regardless of distance.
* WhatTheHellHero: Hiro gets one from [=GoGo=] and Wasabi after [[spoiler:he tries to kill Yokai]]. Later he gets one from Baymax in the form of {{Armor Piercing Question}}s.
-->'''Baymax''': Do you want me to [[spoiler:terminate Professor Callaghan? ... Will terminating Professor Callaghan]] improve your emotional state?
* YoungAndInCharge: He's the youngest of the main protagonists and the leader.

->'''Voiced by''': Scott Adsit\\

A gentle, naïve robot created by Tadashi to be a healthcare companion. Hiro enlists him to help catch Yokai.
----
* AbnormalLimbRotationRange: When riding Wasabi's van in the car chase scene, he swivels his head 180 degrees to look at Yokai behind them. Justified because he is a robot.
* {{Acrofatic}}: After his combat upgrade, he is incredibly swift given his size. Justified in that he's mostly balloon and his few solid components are mostly made of carbon-fibre.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Unlike his comic version, which has a "battle-dragon" design, the movie version of Baymax is much more huggable.
* AdaptationalComicRelief: Baymax in the comics is a more serious character, having been built by Hiro to act as his bodyguard.
* {{Adorkable}}: Baymax behaves rather goofily sometimes, such as in the famous soccer ball MissingTrailerScene. He also has a tendency to state the obvious.
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: He acts this way when his battery runs low, although there's no actual alcohol involved. He becomes immediately unable to so much as confirm Hiro's story, flubs his introductory "I am Baymax" line, walks with a massive lack of coordination, claims to scan Hiro without prompting and then declares the scan complete without the requisite pause of when he normally scans someone, and addresses a cat as a 'hairy baby'.
-->'''Baymax:''' I am healthcare, your personal Baymax companion.
* AllLovingHero: Well, he's this by design, but he still counts. While he's focused on Hiro, he also loves [[KindheartedCatLover Hiro's cat Mochi]], would never use his strength to hurt anyone, and is generally a big huggy teddy bear towards everyone. All he wants to know is if you're satisfied with your medical care. [[spoiler:Doesn't apply when his medical programming is removed, but after he gets it back, he refuses to allow himself to be turned into a killing machine again.]]
* AlwaysWithYou: Baymax tells this to [[spoiler:Hiro as he stays behind while Hiro escapes with Callaghan's daughter. And [[LiteralMinded being who he is]], he means that quite literally; as long as Hiro has Baymax's chip, Baymax can always be brought back.]]
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: In the very first teaser trailer he's shown being easily distracted by a soccer ball, and in the film he gets distracted by a passing butterfly.
* {{Autodoc}}: Baymax is a big, soft, friendly, and huggable robot medic. He can perform a full medical scan in seconds, has an extensive database of medical procedures (and later adds grief counseling) defibrillators in his hands, and antibiotic sprays in his fingers.
* BadassAdorable: He can lift 1000 lbs, and when he gains fighting skills, watch out!
* BadassPacifist: He can't hurt humans due to his programming, but that doesn't mean he can't help save the day.
* BenevolentAI: So benevolent that he doesn't have any fighting instincts whatsoever, since he was created to help the sick and injured in hospitals. He stays benevolent even when Hiro adds karate techniques to his AI, [[spoiler:but when he removes the healthcare chip, [[RedEyesTakeWarning things get scary.]]]]
* BetaOutfit: His first green/black colored suit is less appealing then his final red version.
* BlackBeadEyes: Part of his design to look cute.
* BluntMetaphorsTrauma: He initially interprets figurative language literally (like "looking sick" or "giving someone a heart attack"), although he does get a better grasp of it as the movie progresses.
* BodyBackupDrive: As a robot, he has his learning experiences captured on his health care chip. [[spoiler:So long as that survives, his body can be rebuilt and his experienced personality will remain intact.]]
* BrokenRecord: As Hiro is being clobbered by several objects sliding off his broken shelf, Baymax dutifully delivers his "How would you rate your pain?" query, but restarts each time Hiro is hit:
-->'''Baymax''': On a scale of one-- ''[hit]'' On a sca-- ''[hit]'' On a sca-- ''[hit]'' On a scale of one to ten-- ''[hit]'' On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?
* CaptainObvious: As a robot programmed to be a health care companion suddenly finding himself in a superhero situation, Baymax is the master of making literal observations.
-->'''Baymax''': ''[after Hiro falls]'' You have fallen.\\
and\\
'''Baymax''': ''[attempting to outrun microbots with his stubby legs]'' I am not fast.
* CatchPhrase:
** "Hello, I am Baymax! Your personal healthcare companion."
** "Bata-lata-lata-la."
** "On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?"
** "Are you satisfied with your medical care?"
** "''Oh'' no."
* CharacterDevelopment: At first Baymax has concerns about being given armor and combat abilities as he does not understand how they would serve his purpose of being a healthcare companion. Over the film, he comes to embrace his new upgrades and how they can help others, calling out his own attacks in the climatic battle and declaring, "Flying makes me a better healthcare companion."
* CharacterTic: [[DeclarativeFinger Raising his index finger up]] occasionally when talking.
* CombatMedic: After Hiro programs him to be able to fight. He remains a medical bot at his core, but he's more than capable of taking on Yokai with his massive carbon-fibre muscles, PoweredArmor, and RocketPunch.
* TheComicallySerious: Being a robot, he has NoSocialSkills. And given what he goes through, this makes him hilariously endearing.
* CrazyPrepared: Tadashi programmed him to scan patients and built in the capacity to do thousands of medical procedures, from spraying antiseptic on a wound to treating a heart attack with defibrillator pads in his hands.
* CrushKillDestroy: Briefly, when [[spoiler:Hiro removes his Tadashi-programmed medical card and leaves him with ''only'' the Hiro-programmed combat card. It's not a malfunction on Baymax's part; it's an intentional choice on Hiro's. Baymax talks him out of repeating it and even physically blocks his access to the card slots. The series instead gives him a superhero card, so he can't do this anymore, even with his healthcare chip removed.]]
* CuddleBug: After downloading information on how to deal with emotional hurt like grief and depression, Baymax is prone to hugging if he feels it can help.
* CuteMachines: An intentional design choice by Tadashi since as a "Healthcare Companion" he wanted Baymax to look as non-threatening as possible. Baymax even expresses concern that his armor may undermine his "non-threatening, huggable" design.
* DeclarativeFinger: He uses this gesture pretty often when he talks.
* {{Deuteragonist}}: Baymax forms a BigGuyLittleGuy and BrainsAndBrawn relationship with Hiro that becomes stronger as the film progresses. As a result he shares equal emotional and character development throughout the film. So much so that the film even gives him star billing during the credits, and is named "Baymax" in Japan.
* DitzyGenius: Baymax was designed to be a health care companion, so he has a vast knowledge of medical procedures. However, as Hiro keeps putting him in situations outside of his original programming, he comes across as kinda ditzy as he tries to adapt to these new circumstances while still responding as a supportive health care provider.
* DrunkOnMilk: When his battery gets low, Baymax's behavior emulates being drunk.
* DullSurprise: Baymax's general response to any kind of incoming danger is a rather mild "Oh, no."
* ElectronicSpeechImpediment: Baymax' voice changes when on low battery.
* TheEmpath: He has the ability to sense other people's feelings based on his unique programming.
* EnemyScan: Comes with a scanner that lets him instantly get health information about anyone, as part of his function as a healthcare robot. [[spoiler:This includes Yokai. Hiro later upgrades its range so that he could scan the entire city to find Yokai's location.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His first inflation in the film--from stepping out of his charging case, walking very slowly across the room, ''very'' gently moving a stool out of his path and matter-of-factly scanning Hiro and administering bacitracin-based antiseptic. Not only does it cement him as a slow and careful caregiver, but a completely literal-minded machine.
-->'''Baymax''': I cannot be sick. I am a robot.
* EverythingSensor: Has "hyperspectral cameras" that allow him to scan potential patients for injuries and allergies.
* {{Flight}}: Gains this with Hiro's modifications.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Being designed as a Healthcare Companion, his primary overriding concern is the physical well-being of everyone and everything around him.
* GentleGiant: He's huge and strong, and he wants to hug you, fix you up, and give you a lollipop.
* GhostInTheMachine: The animated series has shorts of dubious canon of Hiro debugging Baymax after he glitches out. His program is depicted, [[ArtShift in CGI animation]], as a virtual San Fransokyo where facets of his programming such as his healthcare persona, hero persona and even his low-battery behavior, interact with each other. In one the junk data protocol program Hiro had written spontaneously rewrote itself after Baymax convinced it of the importance of his memories and friendship with Hiro.
* HandshakeSubstitute: He and Hiro would bump fist, the former makes explosion noise, and Baymax make a "batalala" sound.
* HeartDrive: The green healthcare chip programmed by Tadashi. It's even located where his heart would be. As Tadashi puts it, "that card is Baymax."
* HeroicBuild: While wearing his upgraded armor, but otherwise he's a huggable, pear-shaped "healthcare companion".
* ImplacableMan: Take out his healthcare chip and send him towards a target and this is what you get. The only thing that can stop his rampage is to re-insert the healthcare chip. On the other hand, with his healthcare chip, he is still this... just in terms of trying to help people.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Baymax is puzzled to hear that Tadashi had died as he knew Tadashi to be in excellent health and should have lived a long life. This tears Hiro up as he responds "Yeah, he should have". After Baymax is told there was a fire and Tadashi is gone, he keeps insisting "Tadashi is here" which further wears down Hiro since he's heard it already before. It turns out that Baymax means it literally, as he's saved video footage of Tadashi and can play it back on the screen on his chest at any time.
* InstantExpert: Justified and played with. As a robot, he can instantly learn ''how'' to perform an attack, but he doesn't know ''when'' to use it, requiring Hiro to help him out.
* KidAppealCharacter: Baymax's appearance and likable personality make a lot of kids seeing the film want to hug him literally and his many plush toys are quite popular.
* KindheartedCatLover: While in his low energy stupor, he cuddles Mochi, the pet cat of the Hamada household, and calls him a "hairy baby".
* LightIsGood: He is a white medical robot. It was designed to look as non-threatening as possible.
* LightningBruiser: After being upgraded with full armor and rocket boosters.
* LiteralMinded: In the beginning, as a robot with limited human interaction, Baymax takes words at their face value. Over time and exposure to Hiro, he learns what expressions are and adapts his programming to become more flexible in his interpretations.
-->'''Hiro''': (''after Baymax startles him''): You gave me a heart attack!\\
'''Baymax''': My hands are equipped with defibrillators. Clear.
* MachineMonotone: While he does have vocal intonations, the emotion they convey is matter-of-factly and somewhat clean and emotionless. Which only enhances him as TheComicallySerious--Baymax can't emote, and thus what he says is hilarious because there's never a hidden meaning.
* MadLibsDialogue: The way Baymax sometimes has... pauses... in his speech mimics this effect. One example is when he talks about "friends and loved ones".
* MartialPacifist: After his upgrade, Baymax is well-equipped to fight for and protect Hiro by any means, but he refuses to ever use lethal force due to Tadashi's programming.
* TheMedic: He was made to be this to everyone. He is programmed with 10,000 different medical procedures and equipment, such as defibrillators equipped in his hands and an antibacterial spray that is dispensed from his fingers. His body is also equipped with a heating system that warms anyone lying on him.
* MightyGlacier: He can shrug off tons of bricks falling on him, he has super-human strength even without his strength-boosting power armor on, and at top speed he runs slower than a baby can crawl. Hiro appears to have remedied this after installing the combat chip, as he is able to achieve jogging speed while they are looking for Yokai; it's then averted completely upon the inclusion of thrusters in his second armour set.
-->[[LampshadeHanging "I am not fast."]]
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Interesting since his mind is merely an AI. When [[spoiler:Hiro removes his healthcare chip so he will be uninhibited from killing Callaghan, he goes on an unstoppable rampage until Honey puts it back in]]. Upon coming back to his senses and realizing what he did to both his teammates and [[spoiler:what he attempted to do to Callaghan]], he says it violated his programming, and [[spoiler:when Hiro attempts to remove it again later, he refuses to let him by locking his access panel]].
* NegateYourOwnSacrifice: [[spoiler:Just before launching Hiro back through the portal, Baymax hid his personality chip in his fist so that he can be rebuilt later on. As the series shows, it was a ''long'', excruciating process]].
* NiceGuy: {{Justified|Trope}}. His programming makes him a "Healthcare Companion" who would help people through physical and emotional problems.
* NoMouth: His face is just a pair of eyes with an unmoving line connecting them, making his head resemble a ''suzu'' bell in Shinto temples.
* TheNoseless: No nose, just eyes with a static line between them.
* TheNotLoveInterest: Baymax is Hiro's main support throughout the movie and fills a role akin to Tadashi's.
* OhCrap: A very emotionless "Oh no..."
* OverlyLongGag: This is practically his defining characteristic for the entire first half of the movie. The fact that he's not very fast is illustrated in hilarious detail, by having him take forever to cross a room (twice!), take forever to deflate, take forever to mend his punctures...
* PapaWolf: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. He doesn't get ''angry,'' but [[spoiler:he's shown having trouble escaping being submerged by the microbots... until he looks up and sees Hiro in danger of being sucked into the teleporter. Then it's just one second to utter Hiro's name, before effortlessly breaking free and flying to save him.]]
* PoweredArmor: While Baymax is strong enough to lift 1000 pounds, his soft exterior means he needs to wear armor in order to inflict damage.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: When Hiro removes Baymax's caregiver memory card and leaves him with only the combat information, his eyes glow red.
* RedIsHeroic: The armor Hiro makes for him is red.
* RobotBuddy: Baymax was specifically built by Tadashi to be a "Healthcare Companion" that would help hospital patients. Hiro finds him difficult to work with at first, but this is because Baymax's BenevolentAI programming is functioning as designed. Hiro tries to make Baymax a more action-oriented version of this trope, with mixed results.
* RoboCam: Baymax' POV features life sign scan symbols.
* RocketPunch: "Rocket Fist" becomes Baymax's signature attack move after Hiro installs this feature in his armor.
* ScarilyCompetentTracker: Thanks to an upgrade from Hiro, his scanner can be used to track anyone in the city by matching their scan data against his medical records.
* SecondaryCharacterTitle: In Japan, the movie's name was changed from "Big Hero 6" to "Baymax".
* ShouldersOfDoom: In his red armored form, Baymax has a fairly prominent set of shoulder pads. They help give his armored form an impression of having a HeroicBuild, rather than his usual Michelin Man form.
* SillyWalk: According to the directors, the way Baymax moves is inspired by a baby with a full diaper.
* SleepModeSize: When deactivated, Baymax goes back to his charging pad and deflates until he fits into a small box about the size of a small filing cabinet.
* StoutStrength: He's very rotund for a robot, but he can still lift up to a thousand pounds.
* SuperDoc: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. He is not initially programmed to give emotional care, but he is capable of recognizing that this is what Hiro needs, so he downloads the necessary data on personal loss to better help his patient. However, being a LiteralMinded robot, he still has to learn how to apply that data over the course of the movie.
* SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids: Zigzagged. Initially Baymax's design follows his function to be a huggable and non-threatening health care companion. Even his capacity to lift a thousand pounds is just good engineering practice to make things stronger than an expected maximum to cope with unexpected situations. Hiro shifts him into this trope by adding PoweredArmor (complete with wings, thrusters and a rocket fist) and a combat training chip with mixed results.
* SuperPrototype: Baymax is an ''incredibly'' functional prototype, considering Tadashi was still working on him [[spoiler:at the time of his death]].
* SuperMode: In the series episode "Fan Friction", Karmi writes about him having one, inspiring Hiro to add it for real. The catch is that it drains his battery a lot faster.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Since he was designed to be a healthcare robot, his programming prevents him from injuring people, much less killing them. [[spoiler:Hiro temporarily gets around this by removing his original PersonalityChip to turn him into a KillerRobot that will mindlessly follow Hiro's commands, but once Baymax realizes what Hiro did, he locks his access port to prevent Hiro from doing that again.]]
* ThreeLawsCompliant: Played with. The programming in Baymax's nurse chip does not allow him to harm any humans. [[spoiler:This is thrown out the window when Hiro removes it and orders him to kill Callaghan: but once he realizes that that can happen, he refuses to let it happen again.]]
* ThreePointLanding: His preferred method of landing.
* ToiletHumor: The first time he deflates, it looks and sounds like he's breaking wind. [[OverlyLongGag Except that it lasts much longer.]]
* TragicKeepsake: Baymax becomes this because he was invented by the deceased Tadashi.
* TVHeadRobot: Downplayed, as he can project many different images on his body, while also being somewhat helpful since his face is mostly blank but emotes pretty well.
* TheWorfEffect: Baymax tends to get hit first whenever they face Yokai.

A tomboyish mechanical engineer, her mag-lev skates allow her move with great speed and flexibility and she has discs that can also be used as a shield or a thrown weapon.
----
* AbsurdCuttingPower: Using all four discs at once while moving at top speed allows her to generate enough friction to cut through obstacles like a hot knife through butter.
* ActionGirl: She JumpedAtTheCall and grows to become particularly skilled with her discs in combat.
* AdaptationNameChange: In the comics, her real name was Leiko Tanaka and "[=GoGo=] Tomago" was the name of her supersuit. Here, [=GoGo=] is her nickname and WordOfSaintPaul says her real name is something plain, like Ethel, Marge, or Patty, then later stated that it was Ethel.
* AdaptationalModesty: Her costume in the comics consisted of a black bodysuit, a metallic corset which had no purpose other than propping up her breasts, and a thong made of the same material. In the film, her suit resembles something out of ''Film/{{Tron}}'' with a gold BreastPlate.
* AdaptationalNationality: In the comics, she was Japanese. Here, she's Korean.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Her comic counterpart was a criminal who was forced into the team to avoid imprisonment. Here, she was a noble ActionGirl even before becoming a superhero.
* AsianAndNerdy: [=GoGo=] is Korean and a mechanical engineer studying at the prestigious San Fransokyo Institute of Technology.
* BadassAdorable: Even cuter and more badass than Hiro. She is the most capable at handling seriously dangerous situations right off the bat, with and ''without'' the supersuit, in contrast to the rest of the team. The essential guide even describes her as a natural-born superhero.
* BadassDriver: Shown during the ChaseScene when she takes over the driving from Wasabi. Among other things, she jumps the van over a large gap, then drifts at high speed upon landing to evade Yokai.
* BikerBabe: Her outfit is a cross between that of a sports cyclist and a tough biker, and her work at college is trying to build a faster bicycle.
* BoyishShortHair: She's the tomboy of the group and has the short, stylish hair to match.
* CatchPhrase: "WOMAN UP!"
* CharacterTics: She's constantly chewing gum, no matter the situation--what to watch out for is when she ''stops'' and takes it out: that's when serious asskicking ensues. She will also keep chewing on that same piece of gum as long as it will allow her to. In the junior novelization, the gum she had placed on the dashboard of Wasabi's car for who knows how long floats back up from the bottom of the sea. [[{{Squick}} She is then described as happily popping it back into her mouth.]]
* CombatParkour: She is able to evade Yokai's attacks by quickly moving around on her speedy wheels.
* CoolBigSis: Towards Hiro. Out of the entire team, aside from Baymax, she is the closest to Hiro, eventually taking on the role of a protective older sibling figure to him.
* DamselOutOfDistress: [=GoGo=] gets encased in a shell made of microbots to limit her mobility and pulverize her. Her solution? [[spoiler:Spin in place with her wheel blades, cutting the shell and breaking free.]]
* DarkIsNotEvil: [=GoGo=]'s normal attire is edgy, dark clothing, and she's on the heroes' side.
* DeadlyDisc: Her armor's primary weapon.
* DelinquentHair: Has a purple streak in her hair.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Officially described as a "daredevil adrenaline junkie" and "at her best on wheels." And then they're being chased through the city streets at 80 mph by a murderous maniac, and suddenly she's Driving Like CrazyAwesome which is actually what saves the team from Yokai, as opposed to Wasabi, who was driving ''too'' conservatively.
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': Why are we stopped?\\
'''Wasabi''': The light's red!\\
'''[=GoGo=]''': THERE ARE NO RED LIGHTS IN A CAR CHASE!
* EdibleThemeNaming: "Tomago" is a corruption of "tamago", meaning "egg" in Japanese.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Hiro is admiring the mag-lev technology used on Gogo's bike, when she says...
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': Zero resistance. Faster bike. But not fast enough... ''[flips wheel into recycling bin full of its kind]'' ...yet.
* FingerlessGloves: Wears these in her normal attire.
* {{Foil}}: To Hiro. She is shown to be a natural superhero, especially with her high morals [[spoiler: as she is the first one to leap on Baymax to try and stop him from killing Yokai]].
** To Wasabi's overcautious driving skills; her readiness to pick up the speed in car chases sharply contrasts with his safe driving instincts.
* TheGadfly: She disturbs Wasabi's incredibly organized layout of tools just to mess with him.
* HartmanHips: Has these in the animated series due to the more exaggerated art style. [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in the movie where her legs and hips are impressive, but not unrealistically large.
* HellBentForLeather: {{Downplayed}}. The only leather clothing she wears is her jacket.
* HiddenDepths: [=GoGo=] is the [[{{Goth}} gothic]] type who doesn't like authority. She also has a strong sense of justice.
** In "Muirahara Woods" it is revealed that she enjoys spending time alone in nature, sketching what she sees, be it birds or just tree branches. Judging by her drawings, she isn't half-bad at it either.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: [=GoGo=] gives off a cold exterior, but she ultimately has a good set of morals and loves her friends deeply.
* TheLancer: Although normally stoic and quiet, she's the one who reins Hiro in when necessary and she's also the most prone to speaking for the group when it matters.
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': ''[when she catches on to Hiro's plan]'' Tadashi Hamada was our best friend. ''We're in.''
* LetsGetDangerous: Whenever she decides to get serious, she'll take out her gum and stick it to something.
* LighterAndSofter: As far as the supplemental materials can tell us, she had a fairly normal childhood, was an accomplished cyclist, and graduated from an honors school. This is in contrast to the comics where she was a StreetUrchin who took up delinquency, ended up imprisoned, and became a superhero as part of a deal to get out of jail. ''The Series'' reveals that she lives in a crime-ridden neighborhood, though.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Her discs can double as shields.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The adrenaline junkie Masculine Girl to Wasabi's Feminine Boy who is committed to order and screams like a little girl.
* MeaningfulName: Her nickname is basically a nod to her love for speed, and her primary suit has discs that allow her to travel at a high velocities.
* {{Ninja}}: She doesn't dress like one, but she's got the aesthetic down, having incredible agility, speed (especially when on her discs), and proficiency in combat. Fred's secret files on her also refers to this.
* NotSoStoic: '''"THERE ARE NO RED LIGHTS IN A CAR CHASE!!!"'''
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: [="GoGo"=] is a nickname, and we never find out what her real name is. According to [[WordOfSaintPaul her voice actress]], it's a plain and boring name, putting out examples like Marge, Patty, or [[AwesomeMcCoolName Ethel.]]
* OnlySaneWoman: The only one to really keep her cool during the big car chase sequence, save for yelling at Wasabi for his overly safe driving in an emergency. The role itself is actually shared with him, though she displays a different variation of it by comparison; she'll still jump into the fray with the rest of the team at a moment's notice, plan or not, but stays focused, serious, and composed throughout the situation, never giving in to panic.
* OralFixation: Frequently seen chewing on and blowing gum. When she stops chewing it and takes it out of her mouth, it's a sign that she's about to [[LetsGetDangerous get serious]].
* {{Pride}}: A minor case in that she prefers to be self-reliant.
* TheQuietOne: Her official profile describes her as "not much of a conversationalist."
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Like Hiro and Tadashi, she has pale skin and black hair.
* RollerbladeGood: Her discs work like roller skates when she isn't using them to attack.
* ScienceHero: Her specialty is in mechanical engineering, aiming to make some of the fastest personal transport around through magnetic levitation (supplemental materials show that she has a dual major, taking this alongside industrial design).
* SensualSpandex: Unlike the others, her suit is form-fitting to allow her to be as maneuverable as possible. In addition, the suit reduces drag, resulting in her being more aerodynamic and thus further increasing her speed.
* ShesGotLegs: She has very nice legs, which comes with very muscular calves. Justified in that her job as a bike courier would give her these. She was also [[http://shiyoonkim.tumblr.com/post/101876420008 designed this way on purpose]] as a reference to what's known in Korea as the "radish leg" body type.
* SkunkStripe: She has purple highlights in her short black hair.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: She initially seems cold to Hiro based on her first impression, but later shows that she really does care for him.
* ThisIsReality: Tells Fred this in the series, saying that the team isn’t needed now that Yokai is defeated. Of course, she's wrong.
* ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks: Often throws her mini discs for an offensive attack.
* TightsUnderShorts: Seen wearing two casual outfits so far and they both involve this look.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The tomboy to Honey Lemon's girly girl, since she dresses more like a tomboy and gives off a tough vibe by her laconic manner. Honey is more excitably dorky, and her supersuit even includes a purse.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Kale Salad & Rare Steaks.
* TronLines: On her Discs, they glow red when in use. There are also thin red lines on her bodysuit.
* UndyingLoyalty: To her friends. She will do ''anything'' for them.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Wasabi, as described in TheGadfly above.
* WrenchWench: She's a mechanical engineer.

A big, neurotic plasma engineer and sushi chef, Wasabi wields plasma blades that can slice through anything.
----
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: His plasma blades are designed to cut through anything and he makes sure that he doesn't risk touching people with them.
* AdaptationNameChange: Shortened from "Wasabi No-Ginger" to "Wasabi". Justified as it's a nickname.
* AdaptationalComicRelief: In the comics, Wasabi was a disciplined and quiet warrior, not prone to OCD as he is here.
* {{Adorkable}}: He's a lovable, muscular ScienceHero who's also a complete neatnik.
* AllThereInTheManual: His skill in martial arts is only pointed out in supplemental materials, with Fred's file pointing out tai chi specifically (even though his combat technique with his dual blades doesn't quite match up) and his character stat card having his ''fighting'' skill stat at a point higher than resident badass [=GoGo=].
* AmbiguousDisorder: Wasabi has an apparent pathological need for order and planning, and quickly freaks out if it's disrupted.
* BadassBeard: Wasabi sports a [[{{Pun}} precised]] beard.
* BerserkButton: Downplayed. He doesn't fly into a rage but flips out when [=GoGo=] takes one of his tools out of its designated spot.
* BigOlEyebrows: Wasabi probably has the thickest eyebrows of his friends.
* BlackAndNerdy: Is black and developed laser-induced plasma technology.
* BlackBestFriend: To the rest of the team, but he has a fleshed-out personality.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: His plasma blades are generated on arm devices.
* CharacterDevelopment: He learns to improvise if needed, as revealed in the junior novelization.
-->'''Wasabi''': ''[in the junior novelization]'' I’m good, man! I don’t need a plan! Wasabi is winging it!
* CoolShades: A tie-in book has Wasabi inventing a pair of glasses that can see the germs on people.
* CowardlyLion:
** He's the most reluctant to be a superhero and often acts like a terrified little girl, but if his friends are in danger he will act, often before thinking.
** In the series, he tends to do a lot better once his adrenaline gets pumping.
* CulturedBadass: His hobbies include sustainable gardening, he's a practitioner of tai chi, and is a sushi chef.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Wasabi has dark brown hair and brown eyes.
* DreadlockRasta: Wears dreads in his normal and hero attire.
* DreadlockWarrior: He's a buff black guy with matching dreadlocks.
* DualWielding: His two plasma blades.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Wasabi is Japanese horseradish.
* EmbarrassingNickname: He spilled wasabi on his shirt ''one'' time.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His perfectly clean and ultra organized table of tools. He even has a coffee mug that measures portions!
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: Incorporates a lot of spinning when using his laser blades.
* FatalFlaw: PlayedForLaughs; his penchant for law and order will have him stop at red lights and put on a turn signal even when the BigBad is chasing him down and trying to kill him and his friends.
* GeniusBruiser: He's physically the largest human on the team, knows martial arts, and is super smart.
* GeniusSweetTooth: One of his two favorite foods is pie.
* GentleGiant: Biggest guy on the team, most reluctant to fight.
* HeroicBuild: He's got the size and stature of a classic superhero; irony being he's the least inclined to super heroics. This was done on purpose, Dan Gerson (one of the writers) notes that it was fun making the guy who looks the strongest be a risk averse "neatnik." It's also a bit of TruthInTelevision, as like many real world perfectionists, his perfectionism extends to ''[[FridgeBrilliance his body]]''.
* HonorBeforeReason: When the group is being chased by Yokai, Wasabi still stops at red lights and uses turn signals, even though no one else is there.
* LanternJawOfJustice: Wasabi has a noticeable jawline and is the most lawful, if neurotic of the team.
* LaserBlade: His armor has two plasma blades built into his arm cuffs which he uses in battle.
* LawfulStupid: He ''stopped'' on a traffic light when the murderous Yokai was chasing after him and his friends.
* LightningBruiser: While he may not be as fast as [=GoGo=], he has very quick reflexes, as shown during training when he easily cuts down all of the tennis balls shot at him from the tennis ball cannon, and is able to deflect all of Yokai's microbot spikes (while not overpowered, his lack of fighting experience was taken advantage of by Yokai who uses his microbots to grab Wasabi's feet and toss him across the room).
* MartialPacifist: Wasabi knows tai chi, but he is very reluctant to fight.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The Feminine Boy committed to order and screaming like a little girl to [=GoGo=]'s adrenaline junkie Masculine Girl.
* NeatFreak: To the point that he freaks out when [=GoGo=] messes up his meticulously organized set of tools.
* NervousWreck: Described as being "just a touch neurotic."
* NeverLiveItDown: InUniverse, Wasabi got that nickname after he spilled wasabi on his shirt. He's annoyed by the name, but nevertheless goes by it.
-->'''Wasabi''': I spilled wasabi on my shirt ''one time'', people! One time!
* NiceGuy: Wasabi is neurotic, but he's lawful, caring, and looks out for his friends and their health.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "Wasabi" is a nickname, and we never find out what his real name is.
* OnlySaneMan: Shares this role with [=GoGo=]. Whilst the other members of the team prefer to jump into action spontaneously, Wasabi would usually stand aside for a few moments to concoct a plan, eventually putting it into immediate, effective motion once he does. With the other members of the team being rather reckless at times, Wasabi's ultimate composure and ordinance can be a valuable source of prosperity among the team, specifically when dealing with crime-fighting.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Wasabi is the OnlySaneMan committed to precision and planning. However, when Yokai starts to hurt his friends, he deliberately yells at him. No plan at all.
* ThePerfectionist: "I have a system: there's a place for everything, everything in its place."
* RaceLift: In the source material, he was Japanese. Here, he is African-American.
* RealMenWearPink: Wasabi's hobbies include knitting and sustainable gardening.
* ScienceHero: His field of expertise among his team is applied physics.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: The largest and toughest-looking of the team, screams like a little girl when he's nearly crushed by a shipping container thrown by Yokai.
* TheSmartGuy: Although Hiro is the kid genius (and really, barring Fred, each of the team has a specialty in a specific science), his knack for precision and need for properly thought out plans and strategies apply to this position.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The sensible, cautious Straight Man to Fred's eccentric, zany Wise Guy.
* SuperOCD: Wasabi's bio describes him as a "neatnik," who likes everything organized and precise. Taken UpToEleven during the car chase when he stops at red lights and turns on his turn signal when needed, much to [=GoGo=]'s frustration.
* SweetTooth: One of Wasabi's favorite foods is pie (crust o.k.).
* TerrifiedOfGerms: He may be a germophobe, as he is shown wearing sterile gloves while working with his experiments and is the most grossed out by Fred's statements about how he rarely washes his clothes. He is also worried when everyone arrives to the abandoned Krei lab because it is quarantined.
* TookALevelInBadass:
** According to the junior novelization, Wasabi starts improvising by the end of the story.
** In "Countdown To Catastrophe", after losing to Momakase, Wasabi watches some instructional fencing videos online, improving enough to fight her on equal ground for most of the fight.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Sandwiches (w/No Crust), and Pie (Crust O.K.).
* {{Trekkie}}: {{Implied|Trope}}. One of the languages he is fluent in is ''Klingon''.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With [=GoGo=] as seen in her [[TheGadfly gadfly]] moment.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He mentions he has a fear of heights... while hanging on the arm of a ''flying'' Baymax.
-->'''Wasabi''': If I wasn't terrified of heights, I'd probably love this! But I'm terrified of heights, so I don't love it!

A perky and brilliant chemist, Honey uses all kinds of chemical concoctions in battle.
----
* ActionGirl: Honey Lemon uses her chemical concoctions to help during fights, usually for either trapping or blowing up.
* AdaptationalDyeJob: She has blonde hair in the movie. However, she becomes a red head in the television series.
* AdaptationalModesty: Her outfit in the comics includes a crop top exposing [[BareYourMidriff her midriff]] with skintight pants, as shown [[http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/181/7/b/big_hero_6_concept__honey_lemon_by_pixel_saurus-d55eol7.jpg here]]. In the film, she never shows any more skin than the other characters.
* {{Adorkable}}: Her character descriptions describe her as "peppy" and "goofy". Then there's her [[GeekPhysiques geeky physique]], and the almost childlike glee with which she demonstrates her "chemical metal embrittlement".
* AllThereInTheManual: According to Fred's Secret File, Honey Lemon is an excellent baker and and was a runner up on a cooking show.
* ArsenalAttire: Her purse creates small chemical-filled bombs that can do pretty much anything she needs. The strap on her purse with the balls? That's the ammunition feeder. The heart on the purse's face is a touchscreen that she uses to code in the formulas.
* BadassAdorable: She is an excitable, dorky ScienceHero.
* BadassBookworm: This girl can concoct almost any chemical compound she can imagine, without looking at the keys on her purse/weapon, off the top of her head. And her "chemical metal embrittlement" that she demonstrated in her introductory scene? In the first episode of the series, she uses it to nonchalantly turn a [[KillerRobot Baymax copy]] into dust.
* ChemistryCanDoAnything: Her purse is shown containing chemical compounds that create a wide variety of useful weapons such as restraining gel, freezing solutions, and explosives.
* TheChick: Comes part and parcel with being TheHeart of the team.
* CombatStilettos: A wedges variant is part of her super suit.
* CoolBigSis: Towards Hiro. For example, she is excited when they first meet, she then proceeds to kiss him on the cheek and hold his hand while showing him her chemistry work.
* CuddleBug: She's the most affectionate member of the team, and loves giving people hugs.
* DamselOutOfDistress: Honey gets cornered and attempts to shield herself by covering herself in a protective bubble that limits her vision and increases the danger of getting impaled by the microbots. Her solution? [[spoiler:Aim for the precise moment of the next attack, grab the oncoming enemy by the end to get back into the fight.]]
* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Although initially released images showed her to be visibly white, her skin is much darker in the actual film.
* DeathOrGloryAttack: She can detonate her purse to create an especially powerful explosion, with the obvious drawback being she has no weapons afterward.
* DisabledInTheAdaptation: In the inverse of Hiro, this Honey Lemon is shown needing to wear glasses.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Both of her names are foods.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: She kisses Hiro on the cheeks before demonstrating chemical-metal embrittlement to him.
* TheFashionista: [[AllThereInTheManual According to Fred's Secret File]], she's this. She makes her own clothes and runs an online boutique.
* GadgeteerGenius: In a side book, Honey invents a new form of electricity that runs purely on socks.
* GeekPhysiques: Very tall and lanky.
* GenkiGirl: ''Very'' excitable, especially in regards to chemistry.
* TheGlassesComeOff: She doesn't wear her accessory glasses when she's in her super suit.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Honey Lemon has blonde hair and is TheHeart of the group.
* TheHeart: According to the Press info: "Honey is the glue that holds the group together because of her empathetic, sweet personality and positive attitude."
* HiddenDepths:
** Of all her teammates, Honey is the most observant. Throughout their time as heroes, she manages to decode various pieces of evidence regarding the identity and motives of Yokai, having found his refurbished portal, as well as a recording revealing his true intentions.
** This geeky, sweet girl actually has an ''[[InHarmsWay unexpected love of danger]]''.
--->'''Honey''': ''[after setting her purse off in a ''massive'' explosion]'' '''Now ''that's'' a chemical reaction!'''
* HugeSchoolgirl: Well, huge college girl anyway. She's the tallest one in the cast sans Baymax, although some of that is thanks to her platform heels.
* LatinoIsBrown: Averted. Her skintone is only slightly darker than her other teammates (barring Wasabi, obviously), and her hair is blonde. TruthInTelevision, as there are Latino/-a people who share this phenotype.
** Given that she's [[AdaptationalDyeJob suddenly a redhead in the TV series,]] where her eyebrows are noticeably dark, she might not even ''be'' a natural blonde.
* {{Leitmotif}}: In the TV show - the only member to have one all their own, in fact. A whimsical, comically cherubic melody that plays during her more cheerful moments. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXW02i7sYIw It's also her]] [[LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn alarm tone.]]
* LongHairIsFeminine: Especially in comparison to [[TomBoyAndGirlyGirl GoGo]].
* MadScientist: Gives off this vibe during her intro sequence; helps that her field of choice makes it easiest to pull off the look. Expanded upon in the TV show, where of the group she's explicitly the most reckless in her work: her unchecked experiments are stated to have quite a few catastrophes under their belt (including blowing up her apartment more than once, and freezing her old roommate solid necessitating her moving in with Gogo), and [[CloudCuckooLander she's comically prone to extreme]] [[{{Pun}} solutions]] (once making Hiro a memory wiping elixir on the off chance he needed it. He didn't). She also created a compound capable of ''melting human beings alive'' and then left it unattended, causing that very thing to happen to a would-be thief.
* MeaningfulName: She's as sweet, warm and soothing as you would expect someone named "Honey Lemon" to be.
* {{Meganekko}}: Her civilian clothes include NerdGlasses. They highlight cuteness and the fact that she's a brilliant chemist.
* MinidressOfPower: Her super suit features a minidress over a bodysuit.
* NerdGlasses: While large and round, Honey's glasses are also attractive and fashionable.
* NeverGiveTheCaptainAStraightAnswer: Twice, she is featured drawing attention to things without straight out saying what it is. A downplayed example in that, in each case, the team is just a few feet away or it's been recorded on video and trying to describe what she's seen would actually take longer than having them just see it for themselves.
** At the island, she asks the team to look at the room where the teleportation experiment was carried out.
--->"Uh, guys, you might want to see this."
** Later she does this to Hiro while handing him a USB stick with the video feed from the experiment.
--->"Hiro, we found something you should see."
* NiceGirl: Honey Lemon is the most affectionate and loving member of Big Hero 6.
* NoodlePeople: She's rather trim.
* OffModel: While it isn't obvious at first, Honey Lemon's face has a slightly different construction depending on whether or not she's in her suit.
* OilSlick: One of several chemical mixtures she can make is a slippery liquid [[spoiler:that backfires when she gets hit by a wayward shot from [=GoGo=], causing her to throw it in [=GoGo's=] path]].
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "Honey Lemon" is a nickname, and we never find out what her real name is.[[note]]It's "Aiko Miyazaki" in the comics, but considering her RaceLift from Japanese to Latina, that's probably not the case for her movie counterpart.[[/note]]
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Doesn't really have an accent until it comes to words with "R's" in them, at which point a heavy Spanish accent slips out. Most obvious when she uses Hiro and [=GoGo's=] names (the latter of which she pronounces Go-Ho). In an interview, Honey's voice actress said she did it on purpose to accentuate Honey's Hispanic heritage. Interestingly, due to Spanish and Japanese having similar "R" sounds, this means Honey says the name "Hiro" like a Japanese native would.
* PinkIsFeminine: Honey's the most feminine of the main characters and her favorite color is, to no one's surprise, pink. Her super suit is pink and purple, and her glasses have pink frames. Even the chemical metal embrittlement she makes when she's introduced is pink.
* ThePollyanna: Hiro describes her as "the happiest person in the world." And true to that, Honey Lemon sees the bright side in any situation.
* PromotedToLoveInterest: Inverted. Here, she's a good friend and a big sister figure to Hiro, while in the comics she was one of his love interests.
* RaceLift: In the original Marvel comics, she was a blonde Japanese girl, but here she's a blonde Latina (no doubt to her voice actress being Latina).
* RapunzelHair: Honey's hair reaches to her waist.
* RunningGag: Her tall stature is what often makes people who either don't know her name or don't remember it to simply call her "Tall Girl"-- in particular, Karmi in her fanfiction about Big Hero 6, and Globby.
-->'''Honey Lemon:''' I'm really not ''that'' tall.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The [[GenkiGirl thrill-seeking]], peppy Energetic Girl to Hiro's low energy, shy Savvy Guy.
* ScienceHero: The most classic in form after Hiro; her preferred field is chemical engineering.
* ShesGotLegs: Wears a mini-skirt to battle, showing off her crazy-long, slender legs.
* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: A chemistry expert who wears NerdGlasses.
* SmokeOut: One of the many chemical mixtures she could create deploys a thick smokescreen when combusted.
* SpeechImpediment: She speaks with a slight lisp.
* StatuesqueStunner: Honey Lemon is a BadassAdorable, NiceGirl and is 5'10" (6'2" in heels).
* SuperCuteSuperpowers: Colorful balls produced by a purse that make glittery gels and sparkly clouds. In the series some of the gel cushions she makes are shaped like cute animals such as chibi cat heads.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The girly girl to [=GoGo=]'s tomboy; being more fashionable, excitably dorky, and having a purse with her super suit, which is pink and purple.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Onigiri, Green Tea, and Unadon.
* UnlimitedWardrobe: She's been seen in her power suit, her barista uniform, another everyday uniform, and what appears to be lounging-around clothes, with her hair in a bun.
* WakeupMakeup: Played with. In the series episode "Big Roommates 2", she wakes up one morning and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiQfZKr1jU4 shakes her hair into place]].
* WeakButSkilled: Honey has the least amount of armor on her super suit and her attacks mostly consist of her chemical concoctions.

[[caption-width-right:350:''"Super jump! Super jump!\\
Whoo-hoo, I breathe fire!"'']]
->'''Voiced by''': Creator/TJMiller (film), Brooks Wheelan (series)\\
'''Appearances''': ''Disney/BigHero6'' | ''[[WesternAnimation/BigHero6TheSeries The Series]]'' | ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII''[[note]] LooseCanon[[/note]]\\
'''Appearances in alternate continuities''': ''VideoGame/DisneyInfinity'' | ''Franchise/KingdomHearts''[[note]]Sequel story to ''Big Hero 6'' told in ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII''[[/note]]
School mascot by day, school mascot by night, Fred wears a special suit that grants him various powers.
----
* AdaptationalComicRelief: Unlike his source counterpart, who was TheStoic, this incarnation serves as more of a FunPersonified, PluckyComicRelief character.
* {{Adorkable}}: Fred is self-proclaimed "science enthusiast" and has an obsession with comic book heroes and villains.
* AllThereInTheManual: The supplemental materials show that Fred [[NonIdleRich is an English major who devotes much of his spare time to doing charity work, as well as auditing the university's courses.]]
* AmbiguouslyBi: When listing possible ships that Big Hero 6 fans could ship in the episode "Fan Friction", he says he's most excited about "Fredsabi", because Wasabi is so cool-looking. He also admires Liv Amara's assistant Chris's good looks in "Prey Date".
* AscendedFanboy: He's a comic book nerd who becomes an actual superhero, and admits that being chased by Yokai is both terrifying and awesome. His suit is based on his favorite kaiju, a monster named Krogar.
-->'''Fred''': That mask... black suit... We're under attack from a supervillain, people! How cool is that! I mean, it's scary, obviously, but how cool!
* TheBigGuy: Lacking the intellectual prowess of the rest of the team, but more than making up for it in enthusiasm, Fred charges headfirst into danger at every opportunity, while the rest of the team focuses more on strategy.
* BigGuyFatalitySyndrome: Parodied; he is comically taken down in the group's first skirmish with Yokai.
* BilingualBackfire: When he takes his friends to his house.
--> '''Fred''': Welcome to ''mi casa'', that's French for "front door".\\
'''Honey''': It's really... ''not''.[[note]] It's Spanish for "my house." [[/note]]
* BlueIsHeroic: Fred's powered kaiju suit is mainly blue, with a few orange spikes.
* BreathWeapon: His {{kaiju}} suit allows him to 'breathe' fire.
* TheCasanova: [[AllThereInTheManual In Fred's Secret Files]], he describes himself as a "player".
* {{Catchphrase}}: "It's Fred time!"
* ChekhovsSkill: His sign spinning.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He comes off as this in his debut scene by first introducing himself in the mascot costume and talking about inventions he asked his friends to make--including an invisible sandwich, which he then demonstrates eating.
* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: Downplayed. He and his friends do occasionally refer to his superhero self as "Fredzilla", his moniker from the comics.
* CrimefightingWithCash: Sure, everyone else has the skills to weaponize their tech, but Fred manages to supply money, materials, a lab/workshop and his home as a literal HomeBase.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: A {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who managed to defeat [[spoiler:Yokai's microbots just by ''sign spinning'']].
* DidntThinkThisThrough: In "Kentucky Kaiju", he decides to have a perfect 1:1 scale replica of the eponymous movie monster made. When asked what he plans to do with it, Fred admits that he didn't think that far ahead.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: He casually introduces himself while in a school mascot costume, and also reveals that he's asked his friends to use their scientific knowledge to give him super abilities (like [[MythologyGag turn into a fire-breathing lizard]]), or develop a shrink ray or [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers an invisible sandwich]].
* FunPersonified: Fred is the most fun-loving, energetic member of the team.
* GenreSavvy:
** His vast comic book knowledge becomes useful to the team, and he even makes a solid guess as to who Yokai is and why (an [[CorruptCorporateExecutive evil rich guy]]). When the ''real'' identity of Yokai is revealed, he realizes that this is a {{revenge}} story.
** In the series premiere, he's convinced that Big Hero 6 is still needed because they've shown to San Fransokyo that there are people who can protect it from the forces of evil and defeating Yokai was only their first step. [=GoGo=] dismisses it, [[ThisIsReality saying that this is real life and not fiction]]. Oh, how wrong she was.
** In the Season 2 premiere, he goes on a tangent about how the defeat of Obake was [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse "Phase 1" of the Big Hero-verse]] and that they're now entering "Phase 2", where bigger things will be coming. Also counts as LeaningOnTheFourthWall.
* GRatedStoner: Fred fits a lot of the stereotypes associated with stoners - being a goofy cloudcuckoolander from California - but no drug use is ever implied.
* HeroicLineage: TheStinger reveals that [[spoiler:his dad (who's voiced by and [[InkSuitActor strongly resembles]] Creator/StanLee) is also a superhero.]]
* HiddenDepths: The essential guide reveals that he devotes much of his spare time to doing charity work and is a self-professed "science enthusiast".
* HulkSpeak: Occasionally.
-->'''Fred''': Rocket fist make Freddie so happy!
* InASingleBound: One of his suit's abilities is the "super jump".
* JumpedAtTheCall: When Hiro decides to form a superhero team to catch Yokai, Fred immediately gets excited and is the first to jump on board with the idea.
-->"I like where this is heading!"
* {{Kaiju}}: He's a big fan of them, and he's later able to essentially become a human-sized one thanks to his super suit.
* KidAppealCharacter: Applies to him whether he is in or out of his super suit. He has a very likable and outgoing personality and his super suit looks a lot like an alien lizard monster, making kids love the unique suit design and some younger kids thinking that Fred is actually the super suit itself. There are even plush toys that are based on the suit.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: He's the only human in the group who isn't a genius in any kind of scientific field--which is not to say he's unintelligent. He's also the only one in a monster suit instead of power armor.
* LeeroyJenkins: The first thing he does when he and his friends encounter Yokai again is to automatically run towards and power-jump to him.
* LineageComesFromTheFather: Apparently, Fred gets his inclination toward the [[spoiler:superhero life]] from his father.
* LonelyRichKid: A mild example. Fred has his awesome friends, but he gets lonely from the absence of his parents.
* ManChild: His ecstatic reaction to being chased and nearly killed by [[BigBad Yokai]] implies he is one. His room in his house looks like a child's room, despite Fred being ''at least'' in his late teens or early twenties. He even admits he's a man-child in "Fred's Bro-Tillion".
* {{Mascot}}: He serves as San Fransokyo Tech's school mascot.
* MetaphorIsMyMiddleName: In "Internabout":
-->'''Fred:''' Patrol is my middle name! Well, actually, it's "Flamarion", my mother's maiden name. But still, pretty close.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Fred turns sign spinning into a superpower.
* MythologyGag: He sports a number, but a rather notable one is that his school mascot costume is very similar to his Fredzilla appearance in the comics.
* NiceGuy: Fred is an absolute sweetheart. Further cemented in that he's involved in non-profit charity work.
* NiceHat: Sports a Krogar beanie.
* NiceToTheWaiter: Greets his butler jovially and offers him a fist-bump.
* TheNicknamer: Gave Honey, [=GoGo=], and Wasabi their nicknames, and is the first to call the villain Yokai.
* NonIdleRich: Fred is an English major who devotes much of his spare time to doing charity work, as well as auditing the university's courses.
* OddNameOut: Has the most ordinary name of Big Hero 6 along with Hiro. Justified because he was the one to come up with the other team members' odd nicknames.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Although generally hyperactive throughout the film (even when being chased by Yokai in the car chase), Fred's affable persona drops when [[spoiler:Hiro expresses his desire to kill Callaghan]], replaced by quiet concern for Hiro's well-being and by fear of Baymax's [[spoiler:shift in personality]].
* {{Otaku}}: Loves everything related to kaiju and comic books.
* ThePigPen: He wears a single pair of underwear in four different ways before washing it.
* PlayingWithFire: As mentioned, he can breathe fire with his suit.
* PoweredArmor: All the other super suits are for protection more than anything--Fred's super jump boosters make his suit closer to this trope.
* RaceLift: In the source material, he was of Ainu (an indigenous group in Japan) descent. Here, he is Caucasian-American.
* RememberedICouldFly: During the climactic battle, when Fred is being pulled in two directions, he yells out that his arms are going to be ripped off, before remembering he is in a suit and can pull his real arms out.
* RepetitiveName: He reveals in a throwaway line in "Baymax Returns" that his full name is Frederick Frederickson the Fourth.
* RichIdiotWithNoDayJob: The traditional interpretation is zig-zagged -- as shown in the [[AllThereInTheManual supplemental materials]], Fred doesn't exactly have an actual day job. He does, however, do quite a bit helping others.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: While his claim about [[spoiler:Krei being Yokai was eventually proven wrong, Krei did have a hand, albeit accidental, in the real culprit's descent into villainy.]]
* SecretlyWealthy: Fred tells the team he knows a safe place. The team is shocked that he's about to just walk into some rich guy's BigFancyHouse - but it's even stranger for them to find out that he ''lives'' there:
-->'''[=GoGo=]''': I thought you lived under a ''bridge''.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The eccentric, zany Wise Guy to Wasabi's sensible, cautious Straight Man.
* TheTeamBenefactor: It's his considerable resources that allow the team to build their gear and train.
* TokenWhite: He's the only white member of the titular team, and works alongside Hiro (half-white half-Japanese), Wasabi (black), Honey Lemon (Latina) and [=GoGo=] (Korean).
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tacos al Pastor & Espresso. [[spoiler: Invisible Sandwich.]]
* WellDoneSonGuy: Even before learning his father is a superhero, Fred looked up to his father. When he does find out, he wants to live up to his dad's legacy.
* WhatExactlyIsHisJob: Fred comes off as this at the beginning--he's hanging around a technical school that is hard to get into and doesn't understand "science", but later he is revealed to be a RichIdiotWithNoDayJob.
* WrongGenreSavvy: While his deduction that Yokai is [[spoiler: Alistair Krei]] is pretty logical in the setting of a comic book (with him making several citations to that effect), dosing it with reality leads the team to conclude that it'd be way too high-profile for him to be Yokai. It turns out that Yokai is actually [[spoiler: Professor Callaghan]].
** In the series, some of his assumptions turned out to be wrong, and he [[DisappointedInYou expresses disappointment]] that the villains don't even follow the usual cliches.
