----

* BerserkButton: Being told he gave up on the world and himself. He was already trampling Midoriya at this point and it made him throw punches with the intent [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to beat him to death with his bare hands]]. [[spoiler:[[DeconstructedTrope Unfortunately]] it made him sloppy and Midoriya already figured out his limits, resulting in his victory.]]

* BoomerangBigot: Has a Quirk himself but because of the misery that came from his [[PowerIncontinence inability to control]] it he internalized the Quirk Doomsday Theory and devoted his life to the [[FinalSolution eradication of Quirks]].
* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: To both previous movie villains. While Wolfram was a [[HiredGuns mercenary]] with [[OnlyInItForTheMoney no greater motivation than profit]] Flect is TheLeader of a {{cult}}. And while he's an ideologue like Nine, while Nine sought to create [[MightMakesRight a world where those with powerful Quirks ruled]] Flect seeks to create [[TheMagicGoesAway a world where Quirks no longer exist]]. Also, whereas Wolfram and Nine were connected to the [[LegionOfDoom League of Villains]] and gained additional Quirks from them Flect has no such associations.
* DrivenToSuicide: His misery over his Quirk reflecting all forms of human interaction, injuring those who approached him, and causing him to be eternally distanced from others drove him to attempt suicide... only for him to learn his Quirk also prevents him from harming himself.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Because he blames his Quirk for his suffering and being unable to touch anyone, he assumes that all Quirks are a disease and must be purged from the world. His bitterness and hatred for Quirks leaves him unable to see them as anything but harmful and destructive. It's reinforced when he refuses to believe Midoriya when he points out that it wasn't his Quirk that caused him to become a monster, it was him giving up on people and deciding that Quirks were evil.
* FatalFlaw:

* {{Hypocrite}}: Has and is willing to use a Quirk despite insisting they're a disease (not to mention his cult's littered with Quirk-users whom he's willing to let survive his genocide). [[spoiler: He's also willing to kill Quirkless people to achieve his goals as seen by the threat Rody's siblings are in throughout the movie.]]

* ItsAllAboutMe: What his FreudianExcuse amounts to. Simply because nobody could touch him and his life was miserable with his Quirk he [[PsychologicalProjection convinced himself everyone else was also suffering because of their own Quirks, pushing his misery onto everyone else]].

* LogicalWeakness: [[spoiler: Midoriya discovers he can only reflect so much damage before his ability becomes weaker. By tapping into 100% of One For All, Midoriya overwhelms him with fast and hard-hitting attacks to the point his Quirk can't keep up.]]

* MirrorsReflectEverything: Flect Turn fights with a support item called Arachne, an endoskeleton equipped with mirrors which allow him to channel and redirect the reflected energy he absorbs, mainly using them as thrusters to propel himself in the air. The mirrors can also detach and act as AttackDrones which he uses to reflect and redirect blasts from his personal laser turrets to target enemies.

* NotQuiteDead: After being defeated by Midoriya he's crushed through various walls in one single blow and falls on the floor unconscious but it's later revealed that he was found and arrested by the Otheon police alongside the other remaining Humanrise members.

* QuantityVsQuality: Has both in comparison to Wolfram and Nine. His organization is much larger than Wolfram's crew, enough to threaten multiple countries at once with plenty of unnamed EliteMooks who can give pro heroes a tough time. And compared to Nine's crew he also has more boss-level villains at his disposal to use who prove to be significant challenges for heroes to overcome.
* ShutUpKirk: His VillainousBreakdown in a nutshell. He practically starts screaming this at Midoriya when the latter [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech dissects his]] MotiveRant and resorts to [[TalkToTheFist continually beating the shit out ofhim in a brutal]] PummelDuel for trying to analyze him. [[spoiler: Too bad Midoriya's already figured out how to get around his Quirk by this point.]]
* SimpleYetAwesome: Compared to many previous villains he has neither multiple Quirks nor a hyper-advanced tool to boost his Quirk. Despite this he puts up an incredible fight through a combination of simple applications of his Quirk, a home field advantage thanks to his security system and his back-mounted support item Arachne.

* VillainHasAPoint: Regardless of if his actual reasons were [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish at the end of the day]] and even if the Quirk Doomsday Theory isn't real, he's not wrong in pointing out how people with quirks often oppress those without quirks. Take [[WhatMeasureIsANonBadass Deku]] before he got One-For-All, for example.

Their Quirk, "Sword Kill" allows them to create blades from their arms and shoulders.

* AnimalMotifs: Snakes. Their Quirk is framed in a manner not too different from a snake attacking, but under the effects of Trigger, they gain a serpent-like appearance.
* AntagonistAbilities: Of the MultiArmedAndDangerous variety, due to being TagTeamTwins. Becomes even more literal after they inject themselves with Trigger.
* AxCrazy: The most obvious trait they have is this. They spend their entire fight with Bakugo flashing a SlasherSmile and laughing manically.

* CombinationAttack: Their specialty. This, along with their speed, makes them especially deadly.

* CreepyTwins: Two AxCrazy brothers who are a bit too enthusiastic about skewering people and spend most of their time onscreen [[EvilLaugh laughing madly]].

* EvilLaugh: They clearly have the time of their lives fighting people, if their constant high-pitched cackling is anything to go by. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by [[HairTriggerTemper Bakugo]].

* FangsAreEvil: The twins both sport a very prominent pair of fangs, which only emphasizes their sinister nature.

* FragileSpeedster: They're incredibly fast, able to overwhelm and badly hurt Bakugo, who was fast enough to easily keep up with Midoriya's increasing levels of speed, and avoid his attacks. That said, all it takes is Bakugo hitting them a few times for them to finally be put down.
* IdenticalTwinIDTag: The [[{{Novelization}} WHM novelization]] gives some insight into which twin is which during their scenes. Ena has a slightly deeper voice than Dio and is apparently the more talkative and assertive of the pair.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:They inflict this upon Bakugo.]]
* JoinOrDie: It's implied that they're part of Humarise despite having Quirks because fighting on Flect Turn's side will allow them to be spared in the upcoming Quirk genocide.
* LogicalWeakness: Their teamwork and reflexes along with the sheer range and lethality of of their Quirks make them fearsome opponents, with Bakugo struggling to even land a hit on them. But given that their WhipSword arms require momentum and movement to work, Bakugo opts to crush them beneath tons of rock before they can react with grenades he embedded around the base. The shocked twins aren't able to swing their arms in time to slice through the rock coming down on them. [[spoiler:Once they take Trigger, as they start sprouting blades from their backs that seem to control with their minds rather than arm movements, enabling them to get out of the rock he trapped them under. So Bakugo buries them even ''deeper'' into rock by shooting his gauntlets at them as a RocketPunch, leaving their arms and their blades completely immobilized. This prevents the twins from doing anything when he finishes them with a Howitzer Impact.]]
* MadeOfIron: Even getting crushed by literal tons of rocks [[spoiler:''twice'']] isn't enough to kill them.
* ManiacTongue: As a way to show how bloodthirsty and unhinged the twins are, one of them licks his lips with satisfaction at one point during their battle with Bakugo.

* SingleMindedTwins: They share the same sadistic, bloodthirsty personality and are completely synchronized. Their singlemindedness is actually ''weaponized'': if they weren't so perfectly in-tune with each other, their partnership in combat wouldn't be as successful and dangerous as it is.

* SnakesAreSinister: Their [[AnimalMotifs animal motif]] is a snake, and both of them are villains who take a lot of pleasure in what they do.

* ThemeTwinNaming: The oldest brother is named "Ena", which means "One" in Greek, while the youngest brother is named "Dio", which means "Two".
* UndyingLoyalty: Both of them are completely loyal to Humarise, but hint at the fact that [[NotInThisForYourRevolution it's more out of fear that they'll get culled with the rest of Quirk users worldwide if they don't submit and give everything they have to defend the organization's goals]] than out of genuine ideological dedication.
* WhipSword: Their Quirk allows them to turn their arms into serrated whip blades that they can freely manipulate. These swords can be used as CombatTentacles shredding foes with a tough as well as shields and a means to BuildingSwing. [[spoiler:After using Trigger, they gain four more whip sword from their back that they can manipulate.]]

One of Humarise's Quirk-using mercenaries. She's devoted to the Humarise cause and spends the movie hunting down Midoriya and Rody in an attempt to gain back the briefcase they took.

* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: [[spoiler:After running out of arrows, Bakugo and Todoroki turning the tide of battle, and the briefcase being unable to be obtained, she chooses to jump off her helicopter, rather than be captured by the heroes. That said, while she does jump, its unconfirmed if the fall actually does kill her]].
* BoomerangBigot: She has a Quirk herself, yet works for a group that wants to wipe out Quirks from the population. According to the philosophy of Humarise, the only way to "atone" for having a Quirk is to give one's life to the cause.
* BottomlessMagazines: {{Averted|Trope}}. Unlike other characters who can make weapons, Longbow doesn't automatically create arrows for her to use, so she has to resupply them.
* ColdSniper: While she uses a Bow instead of a rifle, she acts as one through out the film, always preferring to fight from a distance.
* DiscOneFinalBoss: She's the most persistent and dangerous member of Humarise initially introduced and serves as TheFace of the group hunting down Izuku and Rody across the country. [[spoiler:Fittingly, it's with her defeat and possible [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled death]] that Izuku's FugitiveArc ends and Flect's plan goes into motion, along with the secret of the [[MacGuffin briefcase]] being revealed to them.]]
* HomingProjectile: The arrows that Beros fires with her Quirk possess enough power to pierce steel and the ability to chase their targets. Deku has to engage in extensive acrobatics and BuildingSwing constantly with Blackwhip to avoid getting hit, further complicated by how he's often carrying Rody, who can't dodge those arrows on his own.
* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: While she does jump from her helicopter following her failure, we never see the impact and it's unknown if she actually died from her fall or was just heavily injured/comatose from it. Regardless, she's rendered out of commission for the rest of the plot. Her body, alive or dead, would likely have been taken in by law enforcement no matter the status]].
* UndyingLoyalty: To Humarise. [[spoiler:Once the heroes have her surrounded, she jumps out of her helicopter, picking death over capture and interrogation.]]
* WeakButSkilled: Her Quirk just allows her to make a bow, and she doesn't even get anything special beyond that. Despite that, she makes up for it with her skill and focus on long range fighting. She doesn't even technically lose her battles either, only giving up when she realizes she's failed.

* EvilSoundsDeep: Averted, he normally speaks with a raspy voice thanks to Koyama, but. After [[spoiler:using the Quirk Amplifier on himself, his voice becomes progressively deeper and more distorted until he goes full-on VoiceOfTheLegion.]]

* TakingTheBullet: [[spoiler: He jumps in the way of a bullet Wolfram intended to end Sam's life with.[[

* BoomerangBigot: Has a Quirk himself but because of the misery that came from his [[PowerIncontinence inability to control]] it he internalized the Quirk Doomsday Theory and devoted his life to the [FinalSolution eradication of Quirks]].

* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: To both previous movie villains. While Wolfram was a [[HiredGins mercenary]] with [[OnlyInItForTheMoney no greater motivation than profit]] Flect is TheLeader of a {{cult}}. And while he's an ideologue like Nine, while Nine sought to create [[MightMakesRight a world where those with powerful Quirks ruled]] Flect seeks to create [[TheMagicGoesAway a world where Quirks no longer exist]]. Also, whereas Wolfram and Nine were connected to the [[LegionOfDoom League of Villains]] and gained additional Quirks from them Flect has no such associations.

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Flect explicitly stated he never felt his parents' love, much less a bond with a friend or lover because of his Quirk. He blames the ever-growing number of uncontrollable Quirks as of late by using the Quirk Doomsday Theory but Midoriya argues it's because he just gave up on connecting with others and is pushing his own misery onto them instead, especially given there is minimal proof (at the time) that the Quirk Doomsday Theory could actually happen.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Has and is willing to use his Quirk despite insisting they are a disease (not to mention his cult is littered with people with Quirks whom he's willing to let survive the Quirk genocide). [[spoiler: He's also willing to kill Quirkless people to achieve his goals, as seen by the threat Rody's siblings are in throughout the movie.]]
* IHaveYourWife: [[spoiler: A number of the scientists and engineers needed to enact his plan, including Eddy Soul were forced to work for him to create the Trigger Bombs in exchange for their families' safety.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: What his FreudianExcuse amounts to. Simply because nobody could touch him and his life was miserable with his Quirk he convinced himself everyone else was also suffering because of their own Quirks, pushing his misery onto everyone else.
* LightIsNotGood: Aside from his light-themed outfit he also radiates pure blue light. [[spoiler: This is actually the result of his Quirk passively reflecting light around him. When defeated he's revealed to have a normal skin tone.]]
* LogicalWeakness: [[spoiler: Midoriya discovers he can only reflect so much damage before his ability to absorb and reflect becomes weaker. By tapping into 100% of One For All, Midoriya overwhelms him with fast and hard-hitting attacks to where his Quirk cannot keep up.]]
* MeaningfulName: His name is the word "Reflect" shortened and the word "Return" shortened. Doubles as a PunnyName.
* MirrorsReflectEverything: Flect Turn fights with a support item called Arachne, an endoskeleton equipped with mirrors which allow him to channel and redirect the reflected energy he absorbs, mainly using them as thrusters to propel himself in the air. The mirrors can also detach and act as AttackDrones which he uses to reflect the shots from the laser turrets in the room to strike opponents from different angles.

-->'''Dub:''' You would question me? Quirks are a tragedy. Because of this ailment, I was never once held by my parents, never knew a caring touch. My closest friends and those I gave my heart to left me, their feelings repelled. I watched them all leave me, one by one... Since I reflect everything, I couldn't even choose death for myself. A Quirk that cannot be controlled leads to a life of suffering! But I can save others from this misery. These Meta Powers will trample no more hearts!

His Quirk, "Reflect," allows him to absorb any attack and its effects before releasing them back on the attacker. Unfortunately for him, his Quirk is passive and will automatically reflect all manner of physical contact, which caused him no end of misery and contributed to his belief that Quirks are a disease.

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Due to his quirk, his skin is bright neon blue. [[spoiler:However, this is actually the result of his Quirk passively reflecting the light around him. After his defeat at Midoriya's hand, he's shown to have a normal Caucasian skin tone.]]
* AttackDrones: The mirrors on his Arachne support item can also detach and act as these, which he uses to reflect the shots from the laser turrets in the room to strike opponents from different angles.
* AttackReflector: His Quirk allows him to reflect back any attack thrown at him.
* BadBoss: Is not remotely concerned over Beros committing suicide.
* BelievingTheirOwnLies: He implies that his Reflect quirk not only [[AttackReflector reflects physical attacks]], but more abstract stimulation like emotional attachments, leading to him being abandoned by his parents, friends and other loved ones. We're never given any proof that this is true, especially since he was able to establish a cult as impressive, influential and dangerous as Humarise. The fact that he seems to view everything under religious terms may imply that he had convinced himself that [[NeverMyFault his quirk is to blame for all of his problems]].
* BerserkButton: Being told that he "gave up on humans". He was already beating Midoriya at this point, and it made him throw punches with the intent [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to beat Midoriya to death with his bare hands]]. [[spoiler:[[DeconstructedTrope Unfortunately]], it made him sloppy and Midoriya already figured out his limit, resulting in Midoriya's victory.]]
* BigBad: Of ''World Heroes Mission.''
* BlessedWithSuck: How he views his Quirk. While it makes him nearly invincible, reflecting everything also means he couldn't touch or hold another person without them bouncing back. He can't even end his own life.
* BoomerangBigot: Has a Quirk himself, but because of the misery that came from his inability to control it, he internalized the [[TheSingularity Quirk Doomsday Theory]] and devoted his life to the eradication of Quirks.
* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: To both previous villains. While Wolfram was a mercenary with no greater motivation than profit, Flect is the leader of a cult. And while he is an ideologue like Nine, where Nine sought to create a world where those with powerful Quirks would rule, Flect seeks to create a world where Quirks no longer exist. Also where Wolfram and Nine were connected to the League of Villains and gained additional quirks from them, Flect has no association with them.

** [[EvilCannotComprehendGood His unwillingness to view Quirks as anything but evil.]] His Quirk causes him to immediately reflect whatever he touches against his will, leaving him unable to touch or feel anyone. He blames Quirks for his suffering and believes that they're nothing but a disease. This leaves him unable to realize that he chose to give up rather than find a way to connect with others.
** In a more practical sense, this also resulted in him never actually experimenting with his Quirk, to the point where he wasn't even aware that there was a limit to what it could reflect. Considering how strong Reflect is by default, had he taken the time to train his Quirk, he could have potentially become one of the most powerful people in the world.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Flect explicitly stated he never felt his parents' love, much less a bond with a friend or lover, because of his Quirk. He blames the ever-growing number of uncontrollable Quirks as of late by using the Quirk Doomsday Theory, but Midoriya argues it's because he just gave up connecting with others and is pushing his own misery onto them instead, especially given there is minimal proof that the Quirk Doomsday Theory could actually happen.

* IHaveYourWife: A number of the scientists and engineers needed to enact his plan [[spoiler:including Eddy Soul]] were forced to work for him to create the Trigger Bombs in exchange for their families' safety.
* ItsAllAboutMe: What his flimsy FreudianExcuse amounts to. Simply because nobody could touch him and his life was miserable with his Quirk, he convinced himself everyone else was also suffering too because of their Quirks, pushing his own misery onto everyone else.
* LightIsNotGood: Aside from his light-themed outfit, he also radiates in pure blue light. [[spoiler:This is actually the result of his Quirk passively reflecting light around him. When he's defeated, he's revealed to have a normal skin tone.]]
* LogicalWeakness: Midoriya discovers [[spoiler:he can only reflect back so much damage before his ability to absorb and reflect becomes weaker. By tapping into 100% One For All, Midoriya overwhelms him with fast and hard-hitting attacks to where his Quirk cannot keep up]].

* MirrorsReflectEverything: Flect Turn fights with a support item called Arachne, an endoskeleton equipped with mirrors which allow him to channel and redirect the reflected energy he absorbs, mainly using them as thrusters to propel himself in the air. The mirrors can also detach and act as AttackDrones, which he uses to reflect the shots from the laser turrets in the room to strike opponents from different angles.
* MotiveRant: When Deku calls him out on using the Quirk Doomsday Theory for his plan and having a Quirk, he has this to say in refutation (both versions listed due to tonal differences):

* NearVillainVictory: [[spoiler:It should be noted that he nearly won even when defeated, since he kept Midoriya busy long enough that he'd never make it to shut down the Trigger Bombs in time while Rody was bleeding out and unable to insert the shutdown key. Luckily for both of them, [[ChekhovsGunman they had Pino]], who [[DidntSeeThatComing Flect either forgot or didn't know about]].]]
* NeverMyFault: He blames his Quirk for his personal miseries and thus seeks to purge Quirks from humanity, but Deku insinuates that his troubles are at least partly because he stopped trying, both with controlling his Quirk and connecting with others despite his Quirk.
* NighInvulnerable: Thanks to his Quirk, physical attacks may as well be useless against him, as they bounce off while leaving him unharmed. [[spoiler:However, even this has a limit, and Midoriya's [[RapidFireFisticuffs United States of World Smash]] is enough to overwhelm his ability to reflect. Even he didn't think it was possible.]]
* NotQuiteDead: After he was defeated by Midoriya, he is crushed through various walls in one single blow and falls on the floor unconscious, but it's later revealed that he was found and arrested by the Otheon police alongside the other remaining Humanrise members.
* PowerIncontinence: As a child his Quirk was always on, meaning that any contact with him, no matter the intent, was treated like an attack and reflected back.
* QuantityVsQuality: Has both in comparison to Wolfram and Nine. His organization is much larger than Wolfram's crew, enough so to threaten multiple countries at once with plenty of unnamed EliteMooks who can give pro heroes a tough time. And compared to Nine's crew he also has more boss-level villains at his disposal to use who prove to be significant challenges for heroes to overcome.
* ShutUpKirk: His VillainousBreakdown in a nutshell. He practically starts screaming this at Midoriya when the latter [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech dissects his]] MotiveRant, and resorts to [[TalkToTheFist continuing to beat the living shit out of Midoriya in a brutal]] PummelDuel for trying to analyze him. [[spoiler:Too bad Midoriya's already figured out how to get around his Quirk by this point.]]
* SimpleYetAwesome: Compared to the previous villains he has neither multiple Quirks nor a hyper-advanced tool to boost his Quirk. Despite this, he puts up an incredible fight through a combination of simple applications of his Quirk, a home field advantage thanks to his security system, and his back-mounted support item Arachne.
* StoneWall: Flect Turn barely needs to attack himself to defeat his foes, as any attempts to subdue him are simply reflected back at them. He can even redirect impacts to further the effectiveness of his own attacks. While he can repel himself off surfaces for bursts of speed, he spends most of the fight just letting Midoriya's attacks rebound in his face without bothering to do more than token counterattacks while Midoriya runs circles around him.
* UnskilledButStrong: It's implied that due to his self-loathing regarding his Quirk, he never bothered to actually train with it as his main fighting style boils down to "reflect enemy attacks while beating them into submission" and he seems genuinely surprised to learn [[spoiler:his Quirk actually has a limit to how much it can reflect]]. Midoriya even calls him out on it, flat out telling him that if he had bothered to actually train his Quirk, he could've learned how to control it. [[CantTakeCriticism Flect Turn doesn't take it well.]] That said, he's still able to give Midoriya one hell of a fight.
* VillainHasAPoint: Regardless of if his actual reasons were [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish at the end of the day,]] and even if the Quirk Doomsday Theory isn't real, he's not wrong in pointing out how people with quirks often opress those without quirks. Take [[WhatMeasureIsANonBadass Deku]] before he got One-For-All, for example.

Their Quirk, "Sword Kill", allows them to create blades from their arms and shoulders.

* TookALevelInIdealism: Rody begins the movie as someone only looking out for himself and his family, willingly lying, cheating, and scamming others for his personal benefit because his circumstances don't give him the opportunity to stay on the straight and narrow. But Deku's sincerity and support gradually warms Rody up to him, culminating in Deku taking an arrow for him. This gets Rody to open up and call himself lame for his way his way of life while yearning to be "cool" like Deku is. [[spoiler:At the end of the film, Rody barges into Humarise's base to help disarm the Trigger Bombs all over the world, taking a laser to the gut, and nearly bleeding out in helping Deku save the world. He then asked if he managed to protect his family and take on everything like Deku did.]]

An international cult that believes Quirks are a disease that must be purged from the human race in order for humanity to survive.

* BoomerangBigot: For a cult dedicated to eradicting Quirks and those who have them, Humarise holds a large number of Quirk users on their side. While it's explained that the Serpenters are there to avoid being culled, and Beros genuinely believes in the 'Quirks are a disease' philosophy, for the other Quirk Users seen, its unknown whether they lean either way or if it was for other reasons.

* EliteMooks: The Quirk users withing their organization, with their powers allowing them to stand a better chance at the waves of Pro Heroes trying to stop their terrorist acts.

* KnightOfCerebus: In perhaps the darkest ''MHA'' movie entry of them all, the entire organization and their leader possess absolutely zero comical qualities, carry out terror attacks on a global scale, plan on an entire global genocide of people with Quirks, threaten the lives of scientists' children, and boast enough boss-level minions that even some of the strongest students in Class 1-A like Bakugo and Todoroki are in serious danger of being killed in a battle against them.
* LightIsNotGood: In contrast to most of the villains, they dressed up as holy crusaders and target anyone with a Quirk no matter how innocent their victims are.

* {{Mooks}}: The non-Quirk users of their organization. While they try to get by using weapons like guns, which could be lethal, they still pale in comparison to those with Quirk powers and fall easier than their superpowered peers.
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: According to them, killing every single person in the world with a Quirk (roughly ''80%'' of the population) is the only way to prevent the Quirk Doomsday Theory and the extinction of humanity.
* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: They supposedly believe in the Quirk Doomsday Theory, which posits that with every increasing generation, the strength of Quirks will continue to evolve and grow until their users can no longer control them, leading to the destruction of the human race. Except as Midoriya points out, this theory has little scientific validity, and Flect Turn is simply pushing his own misery onto others while villains like the Serpenters are simply with the group to avoid falling victim to the Quirk genocide. Not to mention that their actions cause the deaths of people with ''and'' without Quirks alike due to the inevitable destruction that ensues, and they don't care in the slightest about the Quirkless people traumatized by the attack in the opening scene.
* WouldHurtAChild: Implicitly, as their plan to slaughter the entire world's Quirk-using population would include both "infected" adults and children. Their leader even threatens the children of the families of scientists to force compliance.

* ArcherArchetype: She's a ColdSniper who uses any trick in the book to attack her foe, and fights from a distance.

''Villains'': [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaVillains Known Villains]] [[[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaStain Stain]]] ([[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaLeagueOfVillains League of Villains]] [[[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaAllForOne All For One]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaTomuraShigaraki Tomura Shigaraki]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaDabi Dabi]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaHimikoToga Himiko Toga]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaArtificialHumans Artificial Humans]]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaShieHassaikai Shie Hassaikai]] [[[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaOverhaul Overhaul]]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaMetaLiberationArmy Meta Liberation Army]], [[Characters/MyHeroAcademiaParanormalLiberationFront Paranormal Liberation Front]])\\

* ShoutOut: Her design (long red hair, purple outfit, DominoMask) and powers (PrehensileHair) are based off [[ComicBook/MedusaMarvelComics Medusa]] from Creator/{{Marvel|Comics}}'s ''ComicBook/TheInhumans''.

* JerkassRealization: Rody initially brushes off Deku as one of the hero who is OnlyInItForTheMoney, as heroes tend to stray away from Otheon due to being unable to win fame and fortune there, leaving the homeless poor like Rody to fend for themselves against criminals and gangs. But when Rody [[spoiler:tries to forfeit the case to Humarise]], Deku is forced to [[TakingTheBullet take an arrow meant for him]] before fleeing with Rody in tow. Seeing this forces Rody to accept Deku's sincerity and gets them to open up to each other.

* TookALevelInIdealism: Rody begins the movie as someone only looking out for himself and his family, willingly lying, cheating, and scamming others for his personal benefit because his circumstances don't give him the opportunity to stay on the straight and narrow. But Deku's sincerity and support gradually warms Rody up to him, culminating in Deku taking an arrow for him. This gets Rody to open up and call himself lame for his way his way of life while yearning to be "cool" like Deku is. [[spoiler:This culminates in him barging into Humarise's base to help disarm the Trigger Bombs all over the world, taking a laser to the gut, and nearly bleeding out in trying to help Deku save the world. He then asked if he managed to protect his family and take on everything like Deku did.]]

* LeParkour: Rody is a highly adept freerunner, sliding down rails, leaping across rooftops, and flipping over obstacles to give others the slip during his thefts. He's so skilled at jumping around Otheon that he nearly manages to escape Deku, a hero trainee with SuperSpeed, even while carrying a case full of jewels.

* ChekhovsSkill: Rody's father teaches him a trick to opening a complex puzzle. That same puzzle comes up when finding the key to Humarise's plot.

* EarnYourHappyEnding: [[spoiler:By the end of the movie, his family's no longer outcast from society, he has a real job at the bar, his younger siblings are going to school, and he's studying aviation in his spare time, hoping to become a pilot someday.]]

* LeParkour: Demonstrated while skillfully running away from Deku with a case full of jewels.
* MissingMom: Rody's mother is never mentioned, but he tells Deku that she died after his younger sister was born.
* MundaneSolution: His quirk makes it so that he's [[spoiler:unable to lie]]. So how does he deceive others if needed? [[spoiler:Simply hide Pino]].

* HeWillNotCrySoICryForHim: As Rody learns both the importance of the briefcase he took and the truth about [[spoiler:his dad]] through a video file, he is not seen crying, while Pino is seen from the side watching and visibly shedding tears.

* CynicismCatalyst: Rody became a cynical thief when [[spoiler:his father was outed as a member of Humarise and left him and his siblings without warning]]. This left Rody to tend to his siblings alone as they were pelted with abuse from their former friends and neighbors. Being turned into a social pariah left him with no honest job prospects, forcing him to steal for a living while his family eeks out a meager existence out of a camping van. He couldn't even count on any heroes for help, as they give Otheon a wide berth because of how hard it is to make a living there. All of these things left him struggling to trust others and especially distrustful of heroes.

* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: They look exactly alike.

* LogicalWeakness: Their teamwork and reflexes along with the sheer range and lethality of of their Quirks make them fearsome opponents, with Bakugo struggling to even land a hit on them. But given that their WhipSword arms require momentum and movement to work, Bakugo opts to crush them beneath tons of rock before they can react with grenades he embedded around the base. The shocked twins aren't able to swing their arms in time to slice through the rock coming down on them. [[spoiler:This ceases to be an issue once they take Trigger, as they start sprouting blades from their backs that seem to control with their minds rather than arm movements.]]

* AxCrazy: The most obvious trait they have is this. They spend their entire fight with Bakugo showing a SlasherSmile, and laughing as they fight him.

* ItStartedWithATwistOfFate: Rody is dragged into the plot by a series of coincidences that lead him to grab a briefcase containing extremely important information for Humarise by accident. His initial jewelry theft gets Deku on his case, forcing them to travel together to avoid the police and assassins being sent after them.
* JerkassRealization: Rody initially brushes off Deku as one of the hero who is OnlyInItForTheMoney, as heroes tend to stray away from Otheon due to being unable to win fame and fortune there, leaving the homeless poor like Rody to fend for themselves against criminals and gangs. But when Rody [[spoiler:tries to forfeit the case to Humarise]], Deku is forced to [[TakingABullet take an arrow meant for him]] before fleeing with Rody in tow. Seeing this forces Rody to accept Deku's sincerity and gets them to open up to each other.

* ArtfulDodger: A charming young delinquent who is wily enough to evade a pursuing Deku for a good while using nothing but athleticism and knowledge of the terrain.
* BadassNormal: Rody's Quirk doesn't enhance his athleticism in any way, but he's able to outrun Deku, a trainee pro-hero, by LeParkour-ing across the city, scaling staircases and jumping rooftops.

* DiscOneFinalBoss: She's the most persistent and dangerous member of Humarise initially introduced and serves as TheFace of the group hunting down Izuku and Rody across the country. [[spoiler:Fittingly, it's with her defeat and [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled death]] that Izuku's FugitiveArc ends and Flect's plan goes into motion, along with the secret of the [[MacGuffin briefcase]] being revealed to them.]]
