Yes, he is an unpleasant at times, but there isn't a single person he's met who's life hasn't improved since meeting him, and he'll sacrifice his own happiness if it means peace for the entire galaxy.

** Nobara Kugisaki has a huge ego and a prickly attitude, but is more softhearted than her abrasiveness implies. She'll do anything she can to help out innocent civilians and she's even more protective of the friends she's made.
** Satoru Gojo is a constant annoyance to his allies and revels in his nigh-unmatchable power, but underneath his {{Manchild}} exterior is somebody who wants to end the systemic cruelties of Jujutsu society and help his pupils thrive.
** Nanami Kento is a [[BrutalHonesty brutally honest]] professional sorcerer with a frosty attitude who outright says the only reason he's here is because an ordinary 9-to-5 is even shittier. The reason he hates sorcery less? He actually feels like he's helping people, like a bakery worker whose chronic pain cleared up when he swatted the cursed pest on her shoulder. He's also very concerned with the safety of the Jujutsu students and puts himself on the front lines whenever they're involved.

After his first appearance he becomes a much more likable character, although he can still be extremely aggressive and set in his ways at times.

** Shota Aizawa/Eraserhead, the homeroom teacher of Class 1-A. When All Might learned of this, he got really scared because he knew Aizawa's reputation for being very strict. But there's a method to his meanness. The world of superheroes is a lot rougher than the news makes it out to be; it's a hard road (especially for this class when SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome occurs ''very'' early when villains attack) that requires lots of effort. If he's infamous for kicking out students, it's because they can't make the cut in his opinion. That said, he's able to see a lot of potential in this year's class, and while he still rails at them, he can also appreciate when they live up to his expectations. Plus, when things get real (such as during the [=USJ=] attack), he immediately puts the students' safety first. From what little we've seen of him, his Class 1-B counterpart Vlad King appears to sport a similar attitude.

However, while the prince and his uncle both think Ming Zhu will probably murder Xiaxi, she never actually threatens to harm her at all. She attempts to bribe her to leave and when that fails enters into a basically fair competition, though one where Xiaxi is at a disadvantage. When she ends up losing, she frees her, admits that Xiaxi was right about the relationship not being a good idea from the start and seems to view her as a new friend.
