| 8 | [[folder:General]] |
| 9 | The main antagonists of the story. Founded by Mugen Shigaraki/All for One and led by Tenko Shimura/Tomura Shigaraki, the villainous organization was founded with the goals of killing All Might and destroying society. |
| 10 | ---- |
| 11 | * AdaptationalWimp: Played with, as while the League of Villains has fewer members after All for One's defeat than in canon, and don't end up gaining the MLA as additional members, they are no less dangerous than before. |
| 12 | * BreakingTheFellowship: By the time of the Forest Training arc, the League's membership (aside from All for One and Dr. Garaki) consisted of Tomura, Kurogiri, Dabi, Himiko Toga, Inquisitor, Chronostasis, The Rapper, Canopy, Larceny, Gluttony, Zirconium, Mimic, Punch Drunk, Gigantomachia, Muscular and Moonfish. In the aftermath of that arc and the Hideout Raid arc, the members were either arrested (All for One, Kurogiri, The Rapper, Larceny, Gluttony, Zirconium, Punch Drunk, Mimic, Muscular, Moonfish), dead ([[spoiler:Chronostasis]]), or on the run/still at large (Tomura, Dabi, Canopy, Dr. Garaki, and Gigantomachia; Himiko ultimately split from the group after a harsh reality check). |
| 13 | * DwindlingParty: Over the course of the story, the League's membership has been slowly declining. In the aftermath of the Kamino Ward raid, nearly all of its membership has been either killed, captured, or cut and run; the only members left by that point are Tomura, Dabi, Canopy, Dr. Garaki, and Gigantomachia, along with a bunch of High-End Nomus. By Chapter 74, [[spoiler:Tomura, after gaining the All for One Quirk, essentially says there is no League anymore, and allows Dabi and Canopy to leave while turning Garaki into an EldritchAbomination that obeys him]]. |
| 14 | * TheFellowshipHasEnded: [[spoiler:Tomura does this in Chapter 74, stating that the League of Villains pretty much no longer exists. After delivering some LaserGuidedKarma onto Dr. Garaki, the only ones left are himself, Dabi, Canopy, Gigantomachia, and a bunch of High-End Nomus loyal to him. He allows Dabi and Canopy to leave if they want, with Dabi deciding to go after his father directly, while Canopy decides [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere the best course of action for him is to leave the country]], thus leaving Tomura with only Gigantomachia and the Nomus.]] |

| 22 | |
| 23 | All For One's student and theoretically leader of the League of Villains. Groomed by All For One to be his successor, Tomura seeks to destroy All Might and the Hero-obsessed society he helps to protect. His Quirk, "Decay", allows him to destroy anything he touches provided all five of his fingers are in contact with the object. As of chapter 73, he now possesses the original All for One Quirk, [[spoiler:minus the man's personality trying to steal his body]]. |
| 24 | ---- |
| 25 | * AchievementsInIgnorance: By shedding his identity as Tenko Shimura, as well as his surname Shigaraki, Tomura ended up exploiting the LoopholeAbuse of Star and Stripe's Quirk, without even knowing about it. Even the heroes, under the wrong assumption that Mugen is the one controlling his body, point out since they don't know how Tomura identifies himself as, decide that it is for the best to keep Star away from him until they have further information. |
| 26 | * ActuallyADoombot: What appears to be the start of the final battle [[spoiler:turns out to be a clone made with Double after Toru kills it]]. |
| 27 | * AdaptationalBadass: [[spoiler:Here, Tomura gets rid of the All for One vestige and All for One himself in the course of an afternoon, rather than nearly being subsumed by All for One and spending weeks crawling his way out.]] |
| 28 | * AdaptationalWimp: Slightly. During USJ, Tomura ends up losing his right pinky. While it is restored, there is now a chance for Decay to not work with that hand. |
| 29 | * AffablyEvil: Becoming the DragonAscendant has done ''wonders'' in how he interacts with others and he seems to have evolved into this. In Chapter 74, [[PragmaticVillainy while he's mainly doing it in order to see their quirks in action so he can understand them better]], he [[spoiler: allows all the [[LivingMemory Vestiges]] that were formerly inside All For One to take their brutal vengeance against him and he's surprisingly patient and cordial with all of them. Later on, [[PetTheDog he allows both Dabi and Canopy to leave and do whatever they want, figuring that there was no more League of Villains anyway. He even gives both of them an additional Quirk (Geten's Cryokinesis for Dabi, and Body Slider--a Quirk that allows one to change their appearance within reason--for Canopy) so they can take the fight to Endeavor and get the hell out of Japan, respectively. He even gives them a 48-hour window to leave before he destroys their hideout]].]] |
| 30 | * ArchEnemy: To Izuku, something that the hero only realized after noticing that Danger Sense acts louder when the villain is around. |
| 31 | * AscendedFanboy: An extremely dark and twisted take on this trope. Tomura is a gamer, and his favorite gaming style is to pull an EvilerThanThou during a mission against an enemy, only to crush the [=NPCs=] hopes by becoming the new BigBad. [[spoiler:With all major villain threats either dead by his hands or on the run, Tomura has become the FinalBoss of the story.]] |
| 32 | * BadGuysDoTheDirtyWork: With the League disbanded, and armed with All for One's Quirks, Tomura takes matter in his own hands in order bring havoc against Hero society. |
| 33 | * BestServedCold: [[spoiler:After learning the truth of how Mugen Shigaraki/All for One had implanted Decay into him when he was Tenko Shimura (resulting in the deaths of all his family), all to use him as the means of gaining One for All by banking on his natural hatred overcoming the willpower of the Torchbearers, Tomura secretly began to plan his revenge. He had to wait months to do so, waiting until Garaki implanted the original All for One Quirk into him, before he could enact his vengeance on Mugen by killing him in the vestige world.]] |
| 34 | * BigBad: [[spoiler:After gaining the All For One Quirk, and using it to kill Mugen's mind in revenge for all he's done to him, Tomura takes his teacher's place as the main threat for the heroes to face.]] |
| 35 | * BoringButPractical: [[spoiler:His method of finding out what his hundreds of Quirks do is to simply ask their vestiges in exchange for letting them beat the tar out of Mugen's vestige.]] |
| 36 | * BreakThemByTalking: How Tomura manages to gain Machia's loyalty after a whole month of fighting the behemoth and failing: He points out that Machia can either join him and work together to avenge All for One, or Tomura can kill the giant and try his luck with what is left of the league. Machia complies. |
| 37 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Tends to frame everything in terms of video games. |
| 38 | * CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: [[spoiler:Just before killing Mugen]], Tomura points out that had he told the boy that he was given Decay to defend himself against his father and that his family was an unfortunate accident, Tomura would have accepted his fate with a smile. |
| 39 | * DragonAscendant: [[spoiler:Originally serving as a loyal follower of his teacher, he ends up overtaking and surpassing him (and killing his mind for good measure), becoming the main antagonist of the story.]] |
| 40 | * EvilCounterpart: Just like Izuku is All Might's successor, he is All for One's successor, and is even set to receive the original Quirk, much like Izuku received One for All. [[spoiler:He even was a Quirkless boy with dreams to be a hero, and repeatedly abused because of it before receiving Decay.]] |
| 41 | * EvilIsPetty: [[spoiler:The first place he orders Machia to destroy on his rampage is his hometown, Ouen-Beru, as revenge for their BystanderSymdrome leaving him at All for One's mercy.]] |
| 42 | * EvilerThanThou: |
| 43 | ** [[spoiler:Pulls this against Mugen by seizing control of his Quirk and destroying his conciousness before the older villain can take over his body.]] |
| 44 | ** [[spoiler:Does it again in the following chapter by stealing the Quirks of the MLA lieutenants and leaving them and Mugen's braindead body to die in a explosion.]] |
| 45 | * EvilVsEvil: Versus [[SuperSupremacist The Meta Liberation Army]] in chapter 74. [[spoiler: Paradoxically, despite being [[EvilerThanThou far more dangerous, far more powerful and overall a considerably more eminent threat to the heroes]] that the [[BigBadWannabe Meta Liberation Army]] ever ended being, Tomura comes off as being morally ''less'' repugnant than the fallen members of the Meta Liberation Army and his act of both [[DePower utterly stripping them of their quirks]] and later killing them actually comes more as PayEvilUntoEvil than anything else.]] |
| 46 | * ExactWords: [[spoiler: After the transfer in chapter 74, Tomura pretends to be AFO and explains what happened to Giraki. And while he's entirely truthful, Tomura doesn't mention who was who in the scenario:]] |
| 47 | -->[[spoiler: Turns out the little bastard planned on betraying me, so I had to let him know who’s in charge around here. Left his consciousness in the old body and rigged it to self-destruct. It got rid of his annoying whines, and will provide a wonderful distraction for the Heroes.]] |
| 48 | * FatSlob: {{Inverted}}, he's a skinny slob. [[spoiler:In chapter 43, the Diagnosis Quirk that Izuku stole from All For One reveals that Tomura has a poor diet, that Decay is the source of his constant itching, and that his poor hygiene only makes the itching worse.]] |
| 49 | * FinalBoss: Fitting, but with [[spoiler:Mugen and the rest of MLA lieutenants dead and the organization decapitated, not to mention his own version All for One,]] Tomura has become the last major threat left in the story for Izuku and the Ennead to face. |
| 50 | * {{Fingore}}: He loses his right pinky during the USJ incident when Snipe shoots him. Kurogiri brings it back with them and the Doctor restores it, but it now has a chance (between ten and twenty-five percent) of not working with Decay. |
| 51 | * GenreSavvy: [[spoiler:After Izuku reminds him of his real identity, Tomura realizes that the only possible endgame is that All for One will betray him.]] |
| 52 | * IResembleThatRemark: His reaction to Izuku mentioning how he fled crying and throwing a tantrum like a toddler… is to throw a tantrum and destroy half of Kurogiri's bar. |
| 53 | * JiveTurkey: He only speaks in gamer language. |
| 54 | * LockedOutOfTheLoop: When he recruits the Shie Hassaikai, he states he doesn't know who killed Overhaul because All for One did not inform him about it. |
| 55 | * OmnicidalManiac: Tomura's endgame is to destroy everything, starting with what he hates most. [[spoiler:He orders Gigantomachia to rampage in his hometown for all the misery he associates with it, then orders the High-End Nomus to go out and destroy, giving priority to a hero if there is one present. Tomura himself decides to go after the Ennead.]] |
| 56 | * OneManArmy: Granted, he was already this after gaining the All for One Quirk, but becomes literal one [[spoiler:after stealing Twice's Double.]] |
| 57 | * PetTheDog: In Chapter 74, [[spoiler:after gaining the All for One Quirk, he allows both Dabi and Canopy to leave and do whatever they want, figuring that there was no more League of Villains anyway. He even gives both of them an additional Quirk (Geten's Cryokinesis for Dabi, and Body Slider--a Quirk that allows one to change their appearance within reason--for Canopy) so they can have take the fight to Endeavor and get the hell out of Japan, respectively. He even gives them a 48-hour window to leave before he destroys their hideout.]] |
| 58 | * PayEvilUntoEvil: Twice during the end of the Uprising arc. [[spoiler:First against Mugen, by foiling his body snatching plan and seizing control of his Quirk, then by stealing the Quirks of the surviving members of the MLA Top Brass and leaving them and Mugen's broken body to die in an explosion.]] |
| 59 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: Already this thanks to All for One's original Quirk, [[spoiler:Tomura becomes even worse when steals Twice's Quirk, allowing him to cause havoc across multiple locations.]] |
| 60 | * PragmaticVillainy: |
| 61 | ** [[spoiler:Rather than trying to steal One for All, Tomura views it as a "cursed item", citing how badly even brief contact messed up Mugen, and intends to simply kill Izuku instead.]] |
| 62 | ** In contrast to Mugen's greedy personality, after gaining All for One, he doesn't feel the need to steal other Quirks. Not like he needs to, [[spoiler:after stealing Double,]] he has become one of the most power characters in the story. |
| 63 | * TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: He gives a massive one to Mugen in Chapter 73. |
| 64 | --> '''Tomura''': You know, Mugen, there was one thing I didn’t get about your plan. See, you’ve tried for decades to get that damn Quirk you’re obsessed with, and you didn’t have the willpower to do it yourself. But you thought my rage and hatred would be enough to do the trick. So why do you think that you of all people can take over my body? Isn’t my rage and hatred supposed to be strong enough to beat Player Two and his harem and his ghost-summons where you can’t?\ |
| 65 | '''Mugen''': How? How can you resist?\ |
| 66 | '''Tomura''': Guess you just thought I’d never turn on you. That I’d always be your good little boy and go ‘yes, Sensei,’ whenever you told me to do shit. That the hatred you told me to grow would never be pointed at you, no matter what you did. ''(laughs)'' I mean, fuck, if you told me from the beginning [[spoiler:you gave me Decay so that I could defend myself from my father and never intended me to kill Mon-chan and my shitty family,]] I’d have probably walked into your mind prison with a smile. But you had to lie to me, so I clued into your whole plot! And fooling you was so easy! Now, I’m the one truly calling the shots! |
| 67 | * RedemptionRejection: |
| 68 | ** In their second meeting, Izuku tries to offer Tomura the chance to leave All for One behind and quit being a villain, only for Tomura to reject him out of hand, stating Izuku only bothered because he's such a threat. |
| 69 | ** [[spoiler:It happens again when Izuku runs into a copy of him in Chapter 76. Tomura makes very clear that just because he hates All for One and ruined his plans, that doesn't mean his hatred for Izuku and hero society goes away, in fact, now that he has All for One's Quirk, he is more hellbent than ever to destroy everything and everyone.]] |
| 70 | * RequiredSecondaryPowers: [[spoiler:According to Garaki, his Quirklessness is the required factor that will help All for One's consciousness to take over his once Tomura gets the Quirk. Unfortunately for Garaki, Tomura wasn't interested in that.]] |
| 71 | * {{Revenge}}: [[spoiler:In Chapter 73, he reveals to Mugen that he's been planning to kill him ever since Izuku helped him remember his past as Tenko Shimura, and after realizing that his beloved teacher was the one who forced Decay into him (resulting in the deaths of all his family) in order to use him for his own plans. He succeeds, killing the villain's mind to gain full control of the All for One Quirk.]] |
| 72 | * TheStarscream: According to him, [[spoiler:ever since he found out how All for One was manipulating him from the moment the villain gave him Decay, he has been plotting to get revenge on his former master, pretending still being his loyal pupil, only waiting for the right opportunity to strike back, and said opportunity presents itself when he receives Mugen's Quirk, throwing a wrench on his GrandTheftMe plot and stealing his Quirks before killing him.]] |
| 73 | * ThatManIsDead: By Chapter 74, he has rejected both his old name of Tenko Shimura and his adoptive father's surname of Shigaraki. He is now simply "Tomura." |
| 74 | * UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:Tomura was born Quirkless, but All for One forcefully gave him Decay to manipulate him into using it on his family as part of a long-term plan to forcibly steal One For All back.]] |
| 75 | * VillainKiller: To cement himself as the FinalBoss of the story, [[spoiler:he kills Mugen, Re-Destro, Curious, Geten, Skeptic, Mustard, Amplivolt and countless other villains during his attack on Tartarus.]] |
| 76 | * YouRemindMeOfX: |
| 77 | ** Nana Shimura mentions his tantrums remind her of someone -- her son. This leads to the discovery that Tomura is Nana's grandson. |
| 78 | ** All for One is reminded of his brother Yoichi when Tomura frames things in video game terms. |

| 86 | Tomura Shigaraki's caretaker, as well as the League of Villains' main method of transportation, thanks to his Quirk, Warp, which can create a gateway between any two points, as long as he knows where to go. His main role is to follow Tomura and All for One's orders in bringing down the current society and heroes. [[spoiler:After his capture in the Kamino Raid, he's discovered to be the reanimated body of Oboro Shirakumo, Eraserhead and Present Mic's friend when they studied at U.A., but thanks to Izuku and Neito, he's restored to normality.]] |
| 87 | ---- |
| 88 | * AbledInTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Thanks to Izuku's use of Overhaul, he is reverted back into Oboro, even if his recovery will take a while.]] |
| 89 | * AffablyEvil: He's very polite all the time, even when speaking about killing you. |
| 90 | * CameBackWrong: [[spoiler:Through Garaki's experiments, Oboro Shirakumo's body was turned into a brainwashed Nomu, and his Quirk was modified to turn from Cloud to Warp.]] |
| 91 | * ConvenientComa: [[spoiler:While he was successfully reverted back into his human form, Oboro's recovery will take a while, so for the time being, he has to be on a coma.]] |
| 92 | * HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:After being restored, he freely gives the heroes all the information he remembers on All for One's organization.]] |
| 93 | * ThinkingUpPortals: His Quirk, Warp, lets him create a gateway between any two coordinates he can think of. |

| 101 | |
| 102 | Japan's first supervillain, he was born when the Era of Quirks began, with a Quirk that allowed him to take Quirks from other people and either use them himself or give them to others. He was able to use this to become Japan's shadow dictator, but as time passed the Heroes slowly managed to turn it around, with All Might ending his rule with a brutal fight that greatly injured the Hero and almost killed the villain.\ |
| 103 | |
| 104 | Having managed to survive the fight, All for One is now in hiding, waiting for the right time to return to the world, and is using Tomura Shigaraki -- the grandson of his former enemy Nana Shimura -- as his tool to destroy All Might and bring down the Hero system, while he attempts to take One for All back. |
| 105 | ---- |
| 106 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: As it is revealed in the final arc of ''My Hero Academia'', All for One truly and genuinely cared about his brother Yoichi, to the point he was traumatized by his accidental murder of him. In fact, the primary motivation for him seeking to claim One for All was to be reunited with his brother via his vestige. Here, the fraternal love he has for his brother is non-existent, as he actually ''relished'' killing Yoichi on purpose after One for All was passed on. |
| 107 | * AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler:He's left begging for his life at the end of Chapter 73, once he realizes Tomura intends to kill him out of revenge for what he did to him, by saying that he needs him to learn how to properly use the All for One Quirk. It does nothing to save his life.]] |
| 108 | * AllForNothing: [[spoiler:His machinations to steal Overhaul, Search, and One for All end up backfiring horrendously in one fell swoop when the latter's latest bearer steals the other two.]] |
| 109 | ** [[spoiler:His plots to use Tenko Shimura[=/=]Tomura Shigaraki as his new body get ripped apart when Tomura enacts his own plan that kills Mugen's mind, allowing Tomura to have full control of the All for One Quirk.]] |
| 110 | * {{Angrish}}: What he devolves into [[spoiler:as he realizes All Might achieved the means to restore his health, while he's still a disfigured mess]]. |
| 111 | * ArchEnemy: To One for All's Torchbearers. He killed six of them (the first being his own brother) and gravely injured All Might during their battle, to the point where he was forced to go search for his successor. |
| 112 | * AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:After a lifetime of misdeeds and treating people's lives as tools to his amusement, no one will feel sorry over the death of a PsychopathicManchild like Mugen. Maybe Garaki would, but he has his own set of issues now.]] |
| 113 | * BigBad: He was Japan's (and possibly the world's) first supervillain, and even in his current diminished capacity he remains so. |
| 114 | ** BigBadWannabe: [[spoiler:Ultimately, however, he is left as this in the grand scheme of things. After his defeat at Kamino, he was left completely paralyzed and unable to heal, and thrown in Tartarus to rot. Pinning his hopes of escape on Tomura gaining the original All for One Quirk, his hopes are ultimately brought to ruin when his protegé is revealed to have been planning revenge on his mentor for manipulating and ruining his life; as a result, he is killed within the vestige world, while Tomura is left to become the true BigBad of the story.]] |
| 115 | * CainAndAbel: He's the Cain to Yoichi's Abel. He even killed him with his own hands. |
| 116 | * CreateYourOwnHero: He decided to give a Quirk to his justice-loving Quirkless younger brother in an attempt to make him fold (in fairness, Yoichi remarked that it worked up till then). He certainly didn't expect it would merge with the Quirk his brother actually had, much less that it would begin a legacy of heroes that would oppose him and his plans. |
| 117 | * DarkLordOnLifeSupport: The injuries he sustained during the fight with All Might 5 years ago forces him to use a life support system 24/7. |
| 118 | * DeathOfPersonality: [[spoiler:After failling to steal Tomura's body, the younger villain kills Mugen's consciousness in the Vestige realm, leaving him braindead in the real world.]] |
| 119 | * DidntSeeThatComing: |
| 120 | ** He clearly didn't expect that his brother had a Quirk, or that the Stockpile Quirk he gave him would merge with it, creating One for All. |
| 121 | ** [[spoiler:Izuku knowing his real name throws him off ''hard''. The HoistByHisOwnPetard from his attempt to steal One for All leaves him terrified.]] |
| 122 | ** [[spoiler:All Might throwing off all of his attempts at psychological warfare, then finding out that All Might isn't severely wounded anymore, ends up sending the sociopath into an apoplectic fury.]] |
| 123 | ** [[spoiler:And ultimately, he never anticipated that Tomura would turn on him in revenge for ruining his life as a child to turn him into his tool. This last mistake proved to be fatal for the Symbol of Evil.]] |
| 124 | * DidntThinkThisThrough: [[spoiler:Tomura gleefully points out that Mugen didn't have the willpower to steal One for All for himself yet planned for Tomura to be able to do so, without considering that would mean he wouldn't have the willpower to overcome Tomura either.]] |
| 125 | * DisabledInTheAdaptation: |
| 126 | ** [[spoiler:While trying to take Overhaul's Quirk, Overhaul uses his Quirk one last time to genetically mutilate Mugen's hands, ensuring his [[HealingFactor Super Regeneration]] Quirk is not capable of restoring his hands. He claims it's only a setback, though.]] |
| 127 | ** [[spoiler:Due to All Might being able to harness Izuku's One For All, he changes up his United States of Smash enough to critically damage All For One's spine to the point that Super Regeneration can't properly heal it and leave him a quadriplegic.[[labelnote:*]]Via a fully charged Laser Disc severing his spine and cauterizing the wound, preventing Super Regeneration from being capable of doing anything[[/labelnote]]]] |
| 128 | ** [[spoiler:Finally, he is left braindead after Tomura destroys his consciousness at the Vestige realm.]] |
| 129 | * DramaticallyMissingThePoint: According to Yoichi, he liked how "[[Literature/TheThreeMusketeers One for all and all for one]]" sounded, but he clearly never understood [[TrueCompanions the point of the sentence]]. |
| 130 | * EntitledToHaveYou: He believes that One for All belongs with him, and plots to steal it from Izuku. |
| 131 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: When All for One stole Bond, he derided it as giving its user the ability to become someone's soulmate, ignoring how it boosted the power of both Hitoshi and Shizuku. |
| 132 | * EvilIsPetty: The various holders of One for All agree that he is absolutely petty enough to get all forms of superhero media banned for the sole purpose of destroying his brother's favorite heroes. |
| 133 | * EvilMentor: Acts as this to Tomura. |
| 134 | * FailedASpotCheck: All For One makes a comment that he doesn't even remember what most of his stolen Quirks do. This should be a major red flag to him due to him having an [[PhotographicMemory eidetic memory Quirk]]. He doesn't notice. |
| 135 | * FatalFlaw: |
| 136 | ** His laziness. Mugen simply refuses to put any effort in anything he does: Yoichi mentions his brother never finished a book in his life. He prefers to steal Quirks that are easy to use, no matter how powerful they sound. He even mentions an Energy Manipulation Quirk that would've made him unstoppable but would've required several years of studying particle physics to properly use, but instead just stole more Quirks. This comes back to bite him hard when he faces an opponent that is both StrongAndSkilled. |
| 137 | ** To a lesser extent, his greed and pettiness. Mugen has stolen well over a thousand Quirks, most of which he either doesn't or can't use, simply so he could have them. If he was willing to just accept that One For All was a lost cause, he could've killed one of the earlier users before they passed it on, and he'd have been the undisputed ruler of Japan. His pettiness shows in how he [[StupidEvil goes out of his way to screw people over]] [[{{Sadist}} for no other reason than his own amusement]], which alienates several potential allies/underlings. This especially screws him over when [[spoiler:Tomura refuses to let him take over his body.]] |
| 138 | * FateWorseThanDeath: [[spoiler:In the aftermath of Tomura turning against him, All for One is trapped alone in his own consciousness, completely paralysed and blind. And then Tomura turns his body into a bomb and blows him to smithereens.]] |
| 139 | * FlatWhat: All Might revealing that he already knows Tomura is Tenko Shimura results in this reaction. |
| 140 | * GoneHorriblyRight: He spent years grooming Tomura's hatred and resentment towards heroes so he would be able to overpower One for All's power and steal the Quirk. [[spoiler:This backfires immensely against him when the same hatred and resentment is aimed at ''him'' and becomes too strong for Mugen to steal Tomura's body, resulting in his former apprentice taking control of all his Quirks and destroying his consciousness.]] |
| 141 | * GreaterScopeVillain: He was Japan's ShadowDictator until All Might put an end to his empire. He's currently Tomura's backer. |
| 142 | * {{Greed}}: While Mugen wants to become immortal and rule the world forever, he explicitly only wants to do so in order to keep finding/creating new Quirks and steal them forever. |
| 143 | ** According to Quirk Understanding, he currently possesses 1648 different Quirks. [[spoiler:Of course, that number was reduced when the Torchbearers got into the back door the AFO Quirk put into OFA and began to delete a few Quirks from AFO, starting with Eidetic Memory to make sure he didn't catch on he was bleeding Quirks. By the time he catches on, he's lost a third of the number.]] |
| 144 | * HeadCrushing: How he killed Yoichi. |
| 145 | * HeroKiller: Being so long lived, likely hundreds of heroes and heroic vigilantes are dead by his hands, the ones we know about are most of the Torchbearers of OFA sans the Fourth and En's sidekick Kagami. |
| 146 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: Oh, let us count the ways… |
| 147 | ** The first instance is his role in the creation of One for All, the Quirk whose Bearers have been opposing him for decades. |
| 148 | ** He stole Bond from Marubashi just to be a dick. Bond merged with Power Stockpile, causing the future One for All to reach singularity sooner and allowing Izuku to forge the Ennead. |
| 149 | ** [[spoiler:His theft of Overhaul leaves him unable to actually use it, since Chisaki fought back and mangled AFO's hands to the point Super Regeneration couldn't return them to normal.]] |
| 150 | ** [[spoiler:His attempt to steal One for All from Izuku ends up causing him to lose thirty-four Quirks, eleven of which are outright stolen by Izuku -- including Search and Overhaul.]] |
| 151 | *** [[spoiler:Losing Diagnosis also causes him plenty of trouble, because, while he can use Neural Rewrite to heal the injury that left him quadriplegic, he doesn't know how to do it without Diagnosis.]] |
| 152 | ** [[spoiler:During his rematch with All Might, most of his Quirks are impossible to use due to his disabilities, and out of the few that could actually help him, several are useless because he did not take the time to train them and chose to go for easier-to-use Quirks -- which are now useless because of the aforementioned disabilities.]] |
| 153 | ** [[spoiler:All For One tries to exploit the connection he has to One for All to spy on the current wielder. When Izuku takes Quirk Understanding, it allows him to learn information about all of All for One's stolen Quirks, and he finds out later that he can use the connection to destroy more Quirk vestiges.]] |
| 154 | ** [[spoiler:He often kills people to take their Quirks. As a result, the vestiges of said Quirks HATE him and very happily do anything they can to hamper him, even if this means CessationOfExistence. Eidetic Memory chooses SuicideByCop so All For One can’t remember every Quirk he has and the moment she can safely get away with it, Air Cannon leaps into One for All.]] |
| 155 | ** [[spoiler:One for All has a connection to All for One, which is how Mugen tries to steal One for All in the first place. The Torchbearers managed exploit it by getting into AFO from their end of this and began a long-term campaign of deleting Quirks to deprive Mugen of his tools, mostly the Quirks he hardly used outside of Eidetic Memory to make sure he doesn't remember his stock. Eventually he caught on that he was losing Quirks and finally severed the connection, but by this time, he's in solitary confinement, so he can't replace lost Quirks. Worse, he lost even more Quirks in his haste to sever the connection, including his beloved Air Cannon Quirk.]] |
| 156 | ** [[spoiler:He had implanted Decay into the Quirkless Tenko Shimura to not only turn him into the villainous Tomura Shigaraki, but also mold him into the vessel for him to implant his mind into while also using his hatred to finally steal One for All. This ends up being his final, fatal mistake, as Tomura not only intends to kill Izuku due to seeing him as too much of a danger to be allowed to live, but his strong hatred (which he points directly at Mugen when they finally meet in the vestige world once Tomura has acclimated to the original All for One Quirk) allows him to overpower his mentor when he tries to take over and ultimately kill him for good.]] |
| 157 | * HorrifyingTheHorror: [[spoiler:Izuku, the Ennead and the Torchbearers outright stealing eleven Quirks from him -- including several very powerful ones, such as ''Overhaul'' -- in addition to deleting twenty-three Quirks they couldn't steal, leaves him completely terrified and afraid for his life, stopping the attempted Quirk theft before either [[LongLived Life Force]] or the Quirk All For One were deleted.]] |
| 158 | * HumiliationConga: Things hardly if ever go his way since the Sports Festival. First, Izuku publicly calls out his apprentice as a tantrum-throwing brat. Then, [[spoiler:his attempt to steal Overhaul results in the villain Overhaul mangling his arms to prevent him from using the Quirk at all, much less fix himself. After ''that'', though the League succeeds in kidnapping Izuku, they lose more than half of their members in the process, and then his attempt to steal One for All results in him losing over thirty Quirks, with nearly half of them (including Search and Overhaul) being absorbed into One for All, causing it to become even more powerful. To cap it all off, the rescue mission results in all but three members of the League being captured or defecting and All Might paralyzing him while All for One is unable to break him due to Eri healing him]]. All for One is only able to seethe at his circumstances by the end of it. |
| 159 | ** [[spoiler:Oh, and for extra salt in the wound, when Izuku visited Tartarus to meet the Winged Nomu, Yoichi shows up in his cell just to BM him with Fortnite dances, as En said he would.]] |
| 160 | ** [[spoiler:Then there was the slow raid campaign the Torchbearers were pulling off where they exploited the connection between the OFA and AFO Quirks (the very thing Mugen needed to he can steal One for All) and began deleting Quirks out of Mugen's vast stock. While he eventually found out he was losing Quirks, Mugen lost a few more when he severed the connection between OFA and AFO, including Air Cannon.]] |
| 161 | ** And, to finish it off, [[spoiler:Tomura Shigaraki used the AFO Quirk he was implanted with to turn the tables and render Mugen a vegetable.]] |
| 162 | * {{Irony}}: His plan was to do a GrandTheftMe on Tomura and escape from Tartarus. [[spoiler:Tomura briefly does a GrandTheftMe on All for One's original body to self-destruct it and bring Tartarus down.]] |
| 163 | * ItsAllAboutMe: He's this all the way down to his Quirk. |
| 164 | * KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Mugen spent over a century and a half causing death and misery with his villainous plots, but he finally starts to face to consequences by the time the story comes around, with all of his carefully planned schemes systematically failing. First he gets maimed trying to steal the only Quirk that can heal him back to health, [[spoiler:then he is left paraplegic during his rematch against All Might, and finally, his apprentice betrays him, steals his Quirk and leaves him to be killed in an explosion.]] |
| 165 | * KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:In Chapter 73, the vengeful Tomura kills him in the vestige world, leaving him brain dead in the real world. In Chapter 74, Tomura uses Curious' Quirk to explode his body, destroying Mugen for good.]] |
| 166 | * LazyBum: Big time. Yoichi mentions that Mugen never finished a book in his life. This also applies the Quirks he steals: Mugen prefers to take Quirks that take little to no time training to effectively use, neglecting ones that [[DifficultButAwesome are harder to learn but could actually help him on the long run]]. |
| 167 | * LongLived: He stole a Quirk that makes him this. He's been alive for over two centuries already. |
| 168 | * TheManBehindTheMan: As it turns out, he was the main funder of the MLA terrorist campaigns when they debuted, no doubt in order to create chaos enough for his criminal empire to rise from the shadows. |
| 169 | * MeaningfulName: |
| 170 | ** His birth name, Mugen, means "infinity", reflecting both his LongLived status and the fact that he can take and use every Quirk in the world. |
| 171 | ** His chosen villain (and Quirk) name, All For One, reflects his ItsAllAboutMe attitude: he sees people as things that should serve him, and all Quirks as things only to be used by him. |
| 172 | * MundaneUtility: He uses one of the Quirks he stole to watch television even though he's blind. |
| 173 | * NamedByTheAdaptation: As of the most recent chapters in canon, his real name is unknown. Here, his given name is [[MeaningfulName Mugen Shigaraki]]. |
| 174 | * NoBodyLeftBehind: [[spoiler:His body is completely destroyed with an explosion during the Tartarus breakout.]] |
| 175 | * NotSoAboveItAll: He uses one of the Quirks he's stolen, Imposing Theme, to give himself a {{Leitmotif}}. |
| 176 | * NearVillainVictory: In Isamu's chapter of ''Kyuseishu's Heroic Analysis'', he had OFA in the palm of his hands but Isamu was able to have OFA stay out of Mugen's grasp thanks to the timely rescue from Hikage, the would-be Fourth Torchbearer. |
| 177 | * OutGambitted: [[spoiler:Tomura manages to turn the tables on him when he attempts to take over the former's body.]] |
| 178 | * PyrrhicVictory: His sole "victory", [[spoiler:stealing Overhaul]], in the story ends up costing him far more than he gained[[note]]Chisaki mutilated his hands so badly that Mugen can't use Overhaul himself nor any other Quirk that requires his hands[[/note]]. To make matters worse, he loses even that much the very next arc. |
| 179 | * RasputinianDeath: While All for One couldn't be officially executed due to it posing as a PR problem, that didn't stopd the guards at Tartarus from trying subtle (and sometimes not at all subtle) ways to dispose of him, which include but are not limited to: "accidentally" turning off his life support equipment, being poisoned with pretty much every conceivable poison, being shot, burned, electrocuted, etc. Nothing worked. [[spoiler:It took Tomura invading his mind, killing his consciousness and setting his body to self-destruct to put Mugen down for good.]] |
| 180 | * {{Sadist}}: He's a self-admitted sadist who enjoys tormenting others. This includes intentionally giving Aoyama Navel Laser, knowing that he wouldn't be able to completely control it and that it's potentially fatal to the holder if they're not careful. |
| 181 | * SunkCostFallacy: Mugen wants One For All so badly that, even after [[spoiler:attempting to steal it from Izuku leads to him losing 34 Quirks and Izuku gaining Search and Overhaul, he still keeps Izuku alive to get One For All. Mugen hopes Tomura's hatred will be able to retake One for All anyway, even though he has to work against ''17'' strong wills, but if that doesn't work, he will deem it too much trouble and have One for All die with its current user]]. |
| 182 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: He makes this mistake when dealing with Bonding [[spoiler:and Izuku]]. |
| 183 | ** He derides the former as a weak Quirk that lets one find their soulmate -- ignoring its true power of making the bearer and their mate stronger. One for All made Izuku powerful, but Bonding not only granted him even more power, it ensured his girlfriends would become strong enough to stand next to him. |
| 184 | ** He thinks [[spoiler:stealing One for All from Izuku will be easy. See HoistByHisOwnPetard above for how ''that'' worked out]]. |
| 185 | ** He only regarded One for All as a stray Quirk, and keepsake of his brother's memory. It wasn't until Banjo foiled one of his villainous schemes that he realized that the Quirk had evolved into a genuine threat that needed to be taken back or destroyed entirely. |
| 186 | * VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:Oh, boy. Where to begin? Not only he fails to steal One for All during the Kamino arc, but he also loses 34 Quirks in the process (23 destroyed, 11 stolen). His two master moves, to reveal that Nana Shimura's grandson is his apprentice and break All Might's spirit, and expose his weakened state to the world fall flat on his face because first, All Might found out about Tenko's fate after the USJ, and second, because Eri rewound All Might over a decade, meaning even after deflating in front the cameras, he still looks very healthy, which causes Mugen to throw a tantrum that would put Tomura's to shame. And finally, by the end of the fight, he is quadriplegic and has to rely on [[PsychoticManchild Tomura]] and his last two League members to rescue him eventually. Good luck with that.]] |
| 187 | ** [[spoiler:He goes through another one at the end of Chapter 73, after he is overpowered by Tomura in the vestige world of All for One. Realizing that his protege has been plotting to kill him ever since learning the truth of how he gained Decay, in addition to learning of how he was intended to be nothing more than a vessel of his mentor's mind, the young villain makes it clear that he intends to kill Mugen for all he's done. He's left begging for his life, but ultimately it is for naught as Tomura kills him (leaving him brain dead in the real world).]] |
| 188 | * WorthyOpponent: It's revealed that, beyond Izuku and All Might, he refers to anyone he meets as their quirks within his mind, and he only viewed them as 'holders' of One for All like he did the ones before them, but later on it's revealed that due to the climactic battle that left them crippled, he started mentally calling Toshinori, All Might afterwards and again does the same with Izuku after their battle at Kamino, showing that he only calls people who are ''truly dangerous'' to him by either their chosen title or name. |

| 198 | ---- |
| 199 | * BodyHorror: [[spoiler:His appearance after being turned into a "homemade Nomu" is his height doubles in size, horns grow from his head, spines grow along his back, and his skin turns gray.]] |
| 200 | * CompositeCharacter: Like in many fics, he is both All for One's doctor and Dr. Tsubasa, Izuku's former pediatrician. |
| 201 | * DragonInChief: With All for One and Kurogiri in jail, he is technically the person in charge of the League until Tomura matures further. |
| 202 | * IronicHell: [[spoiler:For a man who condemned countless people (including his own family members) into becoming Nomu, it is ironic that he himself is turned into a "do-it-yourself Nomu" by Tomura once he gains the All for One Quirk.]] |
| 203 | * KarmaHoudiniWarranty: [[spoiler:After subjecting innocents to his inhuman experiments for countless decades, he finally faces consequences for his actions when Tomura turns him into an EldritchAbomination.]] |
| 204 | * LackOfEmpathy: He feels no remorse over using children as subjects of his experiments. |
| 205 | * LaserGuidedKarma: After all the shit he did to innumerable people, [[spoiler:his final fate is to be turned into a Nomu by Tomura]]. |
| 206 | * LockedOutOfTheLoop: Not even he knew that All for One's name is Mugen Shigaraki. |
| 207 | * MadScientist: He is the manufacturer of the Nomus. |
| 208 | * OhCrap: Goes through this [[spoiler:upon realizing that Tomura has full control of his body and the All for One Quirk, with Mugen's consciousness not in control]]. |
| 209 | * PragmaticVillainy: He tried to bargain with the CRC cell from their current hideout, but when they refuse to listen because of the Nomus' presence, he just killed them and used their bodies for Nomu material. |
| 210 | * StrongerWithAge: [[spoiler: One of the Quirks used to turn him into a Nomu is Old and Golden, which improves the holder's physical ability scaling with their age at the cost of reducing their intelligence (also scaling with age). Given how he's now the oldest man alive, this likely means he'll be a physical juggernaut, at the expense of being reduced to a near-mindless beast.]] |

| 219 | |
| 220 | A demented 17-year-old girl that has a large body count behind herself, she ends up stalking Izuku after starting to crush on him from seeing him bleed during the Sports Festival. She ends up bonding with Izuku after he expresses his opinion that Quirks are not villainous -- only for him to quickly sever the bond when he realizes her true personality.\ |
| 221 | |
| 222 | Her Quirk, "Transform", allows her to create a layer of goop around herself that lets her disguise herself as another person, but this requires her to ingest blood from that person, and it only lasts for a time that depends on how much blood she drank. [[spoiler:If she concentrates, she can also replicate the person's Quirk.]] |
| 223 | ---- |
| 224 | * AdaptationalBadass: During her time off-page since Kamino, she figured out how to combine the Quirks of the people she killed, making herself even more dangerous than she already was. |
| 225 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Himiko makes her debut during the spring internships instead of after their completion. |
| 226 | * AdaptationalHeroism: {{Subverted}}. Himiko's InsaneTrollLogic makes believe that she is not that different from Izuku and the heroes simply because now she targets villains instead of random people. |
| 227 | * AlasPoorVillain: After she gets a very thorough reality check [[spoiler:due to her accidentally connecting to the Ennead's bonding]] where she is not only forced to see things from other people's point of view, but she also realizes that Izuku and the girls want to help her but also want to keep her away from them, Toga runs away from the Kamino fight and hides away to cry. |
| 228 | ** [[spoiler:Her reappearance has her still shaken from the reality check, but still wanting to be with the Ennead, though this time out of a more sincere desire to feel like she belongs.]] |
| 229 | * BadPowersBadPeople: Izuku calls her out on how her actions, not her [[BloodMagic Quirk]], make her a monster. |
| 230 | * BaitAndSwitch: Himiko protests the idea of Izuku being turned into her limbless blood bag/body pillow... but only because he couldn't hug her if he had no arms. |
| 231 | * BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Himiko wanted to connect with Izuku with Bonding even after he snapped the link. [[spoiler:Transforming into Izuku allows her to fool Bonding into thinking she was Izuku, reconnecting her to the network... and suddenly forcing her to experience ''and'' understand the Ennead's emotions, giving her a hard reality check on the scope of her actions.]] |
| 232 | * BloodLust: She crushes on Izuku when she sees him bleeding in the aftermath of the Sports Festival fight with Shoto. |
| 233 | * BlueAndOrangeMorality: Prior to her attempt to reintegrate into the Ennead in the Kamino Raid, the best way to show her love for someone was killing them and attempt to become them. |
| 234 | ** Following the Kamino Raid, she now kills villains mostly because she believes that's what Heroes do. |
| 235 | * BodyHorror: While combining Transform with the other Quirks within her, her body evolves into a massive blob creature. |
| 236 | * BrokenTears: During her reunion with Izuku in the middle of the MLA Uprising, she sheds these as she begs him and the Ennead to take her back after showing she had "changed" by only targeting villains. This shows Izuku that she genuinely has no idea how horrible her actions are, and only wants a place to belong and be loved. |
| 237 | * DesperatelyCravesAffection: Having spent her entire life being scorned because of her Quirk, Himiko is a tragic example of someone who only wants to feel loved and will go extremes to achieve that, as Izuku painfully figures it out. |
| 238 | * DisproportionateRetribution: She will kill people for the flimsiest reasons (if any). The girl she disguises herself as to approach Izuku? She killed her because she was ([[UnreliableNarrator according to her]]) a bitch. |
| 239 | * FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Izuku makes it clear while talking to her, and Sir Nighteye later, that while what Himiko went through was terrible, it still doesn't remotely justify her becoming a SerialKiller. Later when Himiko [[spoiler:briefly reconnects with the Ennead]], she learns that all of them pity her for what she went through, including being starved of the blood she needs, but none of them think it justifies her "knifing random people in an alley". |
| 240 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler:Using her Quirk to turn into Izuku ends up causing her to connect to the Ennead's mental link -- which overwhelms her as she realizes the depths of everyone's feelings, causing her to break down mentally and run away.]] |
| 241 | * InsaneTrollLogic: Toga believes that Izuku and the girls will be more willing to accept her for who she is if she behaves like a hero. How does she choose to do that? By brutally killing any villain that crosses her path. In her eyes, this makes her no different from a hero. |
| 242 | * IRejectYourReality: No matter what other people tell her, she remains convinced that Izuku loves her and wants her to show her love (by killing him). [[spoiler:Her using her Quirk to change into Izuku and "reconnecting" to the Bonding Quirk, the Ennead hits her with enough of a ''proper'' reality check that she retreats and breaks down into a sobbing wreck.]] |
| 243 | * KillAndReplace: She initially thinks this is the ultimate expression of her love -- drinking so much blood out of someone that she will actually become that person. She wants to do that to Izuku. |
| 244 | * LoopholeAbuse: An accidental variation. [[spoiler:Turning into Izuku after having previously formed a temporary bond with him, briefly tricks Bonding into thinking she ''is'' Izuku and lets her connect with the Ennead.]] |
| 245 | * MindlinkMates: She was this with Izuku for all of forty-five seconds before he realized she was a psychopathic SerialKiller and snapped the bond. Unfortunately, this was enough to let her know that he's bonded with other girls. [[spoiler:When she uses her Quirk to change into him during Chapter 44, she "reconnects" at level 1. The sudden sensation of feeling multiple foreign emotions overwhelms her.]] |
| 246 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: [[spoiler:Her temporary bond with the Ennead allows her to find out all of them have a DarkAndTroubledPast in some level.]] While not as bad as hers, is enough for Toga to point out that much like her, they all have something BeneathTheMask. |
| 247 | * ObliviouslyEvil: As Izuku comes to realize, Himiko is desperate to have a place to belong. She genuinely doesn't understand how wrong her actions are, making the whole situation even more tragic. |
| 248 | * SerialKiller: She's got a ''long'' string of bodies behind her, and she doesn't even care about it. |
| 249 | * StalkerWithACrush: She becomes this to Izuku -- much to his disgust. |
| 250 | * StealthExpert: She's good enough that it doesn't trigger Danger Sense even though she wants to kill Izuku. |
| 251 | * SympathyForTheDevil: The entirety of the Ennead pities Himiko for her DarkAndTroubledPast and wants her to receive psychiatric help, even if they don't want her anywhere near them given that she's still a SerialKiller who's fixated on Izuku. |
| 252 | * TermsOfEndangerment: She calls Izuku "Izu-kun" and "Izuku-chan" after their bond forms and snaps. Izuku tells her she doesn't get to call him like the other girls do, but she doesn't care. |
| 253 | * ThisCannotBe: The above LoopholeAbuse causes Himiko to learn how the Ennead view her. The result shocks her so badly that she flees the battle to find a place where she can curl up and cry. |
| 254 | --> Toga's world was torn to shreds and rebuilt when she finally gave into her urges and drank from Saito. Now, it started reeling once again as she clearly saw into the lives of other people, how their actions changed because of her, the fear and caution they felt. They were real people. They thought she was a real person. They wanted what was best for her. And they didn't want her in their lives. |
| 255 | * VampiricDraining: From his temporary bond with her, Izuku learns that Himiko genuinely needs to drink blood for sustenance. [[spoiler:After the Kamino incident, Himiko changed from random targets for their blood to criminals.]] |
| 256 | * VillainKiller: She begins to target villains to steal their blood after abandoning the League in Kamino. In Toga's twisted mindset, that actually makes her a hero. [[spoiler:She is the one to off Trumpet during the MLA Uprising.]] |
| 257 | * VillainousBreakdown: Has one in the middle of the fight in Kamino, where she finds out that the Ennead is not shunning her away because of her Quirk, but because she killed a lot of people in the name of her twisted version of love. This prompts her to run from the fight, shapeshift into somebody else and cry all by herself. |
| 258 | * VoiceOfTheLegion: While speaking on her transformed mode, her voice sounds like is followed by fifty others too. |
| 259 | * {{Yandere}}: Her idea of showing her love is to kill them and attempt to become them. |

| 267 | |
| 268 | Endeavor's oldest child that has a grudge against his father after believing that the man cast him aside after his younger brother, who had the best Quirk of his siblings, was born. |
| 269 | ---- |
| 270 | * AdaptationalBadass: [[spoiler:In Chapter 74, Tomura gives him Geten's stolen Quirk as a gift, which will prove to be an advantage to him after seeing it be used against Endeavor during the MLA Uprising.]] |
| 271 | * AllForNothing: His plans to ruin his father and brother go down the drain after Endeavor admits to his past mistakes publicly. |
| 272 | * CainAndAbel: Dabi is this to not only Shoto, but Fuyumi and Natsuo, his other younger siblings, though he wants to kill specifically Shoto, because he thinks the latter had the life that was denied to him. |
| 273 | ** It also would not be his first attempt at Shoto's life, having [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior nearly attacked him with full intent to maim his littlest brother when Shoto was a]] ''[[WouldHurtAChild baby]]''. |
| 274 | * ComboPlatterPowers: Thanks his RequiredSecondaryPowers, [[spoiler:he can coat himself with ice from Cryokinesis and create an armor that negate the damage from Blueflame.]] |
| 275 | * DeviousDaggers: [[spoiler:He can create ice blades with Cryokinesis, which he uses to kill Endeavor's former sidekicks.]] |
| 276 | * DramaticIrony: While not properly clarified by the author to be the case like in canon, [[spoiler:Dabi's new Cryokinesis Quirk originally belonged to his LongLostRelative from his mother's side, Geten.]] |
| 277 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: He doesn't understand why Shoto bothers to help Endeavor during his fight against Geten and Starservant because of the abuse he also suffered. |
| 278 | * FirstPersonSnarker: He somehow is snarkier on his inner monologue than out loud: |
| 279 | --> '''Dabi''': Dabi looked around at his group, the “Vanguard Action Squad”, as their raisin-skinned leader called them. Honestly, he wouldn’t trust most of them with a ball of string, but if this succeeded, they would serve their purpose. And if they didn’t, fuck it, he’d burnt a forest down and survived once, he could do it again. |
| 280 | * GlassCannon: Blueflame gives him incredible offensive power, but not only does he not have particularly good defense, he's also weak to his own Quirk, having inherited his mother's cold resistance and frail constitution, and overuse of his Quirk has only made this problem worse. Izuku, via Diagnosis, describes his current state perfectly: |
| 281 | -->''Dabi in particular, was held together with chewing gum and a wish.'' |
| 282 | * HypocrisyNod: He internally comments that he probably shouldn't make remarks about Tomura's crusty looks, given his own appearance. |
| 283 | * InstantExpert: Subverted. [[spoiler:He doesn't immediately gets the gist of Cryokinesis simply by watching Geten on TV. It takes him figuring out that the Quirk needs ice in the water for it to be properly manipulated.]] |
| 284 | * IRejectYourReality: After hearing what happened to his mother and Shoto, he quickly denies what happened to them was that bad and still believes that he is justified in his crimes and quest for vengeance. |
| 285 | * NotInThisForYourRevolution: Only joined the League of Villains to further his quest to destroy his father. |
| 286 | * ShadowArchetype: He is this to Shoto, being a son of Endeavor who was raised to try and become a hero stronger than All Might, only for Dabi to crack and become a villain due to a series of personal tragedies. [[spoiler:It becomes even more obvious when Dabi is given Geten's Cryokinesis Quirk by Tomura after the latter steals it from the former; now the elder Todoroki child has an Ice-themed Quirk of his own to work in conjunction with his Fire-themed Quirk.]] |
| 287 | * VillainousBreakdown: Dabi throws a screaming fit when his plans to ruin his father's reputation are destroyed by the man owning up to his actions in a press conference, especially because a number of people praised Endeavor for coming clean and seeking to atone. |

| 296 | One half of Overhaul's Spear and Shield combo, and extremely loyal to the man, he joined the League of Villains to avenge his captured, later killed, leader. |
| 297 | ---- |
| 298 | * AdaptationalNameChange: PlayedWith. While he still has the same name as his canon counterpart, here he goes by the codename Canopy rather than his given name like in canon. |
| 299 | * AscendedExtra: In canon he was a member of a QuirkyMinibossSquad that was defeated in their first appearance. Here he is the last man standing of the organization and one of the key members of the League of Villains. |
| 300 | * BarrierWarrior: His Quirk lets him create solid barriers that are difficult to break through. |
| 301 | * CharacterCustomization: [[spoiler:In Chapter 74, Tomura grants him the secondary Quirk "Body Slider", which allows him to alter his appearance (within reason). He decides to use this to allow him to more easily flee Japan entirely.]] |
| 302 | * DramaticIrony: He joined the League to avenge Overhaul, not knowing that the true leader of the League, All for One, was the man that killed Overhaul. |
| 303 | * NotInThisForYourRevolution: He joined to avenge Overhaul and cares nothing for Tomura Shigaraki and his goals. [[spoiler:He makes this clear in Chapter 74 when after the MLA Uprising and Tomura gaining All for One, he wants no further part in the conflict (rationalizing it that his targets of revenge are out of his reach one way or another, in addition to being way out of his depth) and just wants to get the hell out of the country. Chapter 75 reveals he went to Paraguay.]] |
| 304 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[spoiler:He decides to leave Japan after Tomura takes All for One, figuring that his revenge targets are either dead or too strong to deal with himself.]] |
| 305 | * SoleSurvivor: By the end of the Hideout Raid Arc, he is the only member of the Shie Hassaikai that wasn't killed, captured by heroes, or defected. |
| 306 | * StoppedCaring: After Overhaul's death he no longer cares about keeping his partner Rappa in line. |

| 319 | ---- |
| 320 | * AntiVillain: Rappa only cares about fighting. He only joined Overhaul in hopes to defeat him one day, and only joined the League in hopes to fight Izuku, who defeated Overhaul. After his fight against Izuku, and later his defeat at the hands of Kirishima, Tetsutetsu and Akira at the Summer Training camp, not only he willingly surrenders, he also gives up all information he has about the League and what is left of the Yakuza. The three students and later Miruko (whose life he saved during the Underground Masquerade event in the ''Vigilantes'' spin-off) all agreed to testify and help him get leniency. |
| 321 | * TheAtoner: Helped protect the remaining U.A. students after being robbed of his fight against Izuku, and surrendered and joined a villain rehabilitation program after the battle was over. |
| 322 | * BloodKnight: His main drive in life is trying to find someone willing to give him a good fight. |
| 323 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: Tells Izuku to send Eri and Kota away before their fight, because, unlike [[AxCrazy Muscular]], he does not hurt children. He also gets angry with Chronostasis when he shoots Izuku in the back in the middle of the fight. |
| 324 | * EvilCounterpart: Daigoro compares him to a villainous version of Kirishima and Tetsutetsu. |
| 325 | * NotInThisForYourRevolution: Joined the Shie Hassaikai for a chance to take on Chisaki, and joined the League of Villains solely to find a good fight. |

| 366 | A behemoth villain, loyal only towards All for One and later Tomura |
| 367 | ---- |
| 368 | * AdaptationalBadass: In addition to all his canon Quirks, he also has Re-Destro's Stress, which not only allows him to become bigger and stronger, but allows him to shoot energy blasts. |
| 369 | * BreakThemByTalking: How Mei ultimately defeats him. By pointing how much of a disposable pawn Machia is towards both Mugen and Tomura, this ends up weakening his Endurance Quirk, and with his morale in low, it allows Yui's atracks to actually cause damage. |
| 370 | * ComboPlatterPowers: One of his few weakenesses was how his Endurance Quirk could lose energy whenever he loses the will to fight, but by adding Stress to his arsenal, he can balance it out. |
| 371 | * HeartbrokenBadass: He is broken upon finding out that All for One died back in Tartarus, completely unware his new master Tomura, was the one to kill him. |
| 372 | * HulkingOut: He gains Re-Destro's Quirk from Tomura in Chapter 75, which allows him balance out whenever his Endurance Quirk is weakening, and since he found out about All for One's demise, he is very stressed. |
| 373 | * {{Kaiju}}: There is a reason he is called ''Giganto''machia. |
| 374 | * LogicalWeakness: His Endurance Quirk can keep him up as long as he feels motivated to keep fighting, take that out and everything falls apart for him, and the best of doing so is pointing how irrelavant he is towards his beloved masters. |
| 375 | * {{Manchild}}: He behaves like one, always complaining that Tomura is not a worthy successor to All for One until he gives up and accepts him. |
| 376 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: He completely destroys Tomura's hometown, Ouen-Beru. |
| 377 | * SelectiveObliviousness: Completely ignores that for someone who is supposedly the most powerful weapon in All for One's arsenal, he had been left out of any relevant fights involving the League until the last possible moment. |
| 378 | * SycophanticServant: He spends all of his time while fighting Yui and Mt. Lady yelling about how All for One and Tomura are the greatest things in the universe. |
| 379 | * ThisCannotBe: His reaction when he finds out that All for One was destroyed during his last fight against All Might. |
| 380 | * WhatTheHellAreYou: Yells this to Yui when her sword actually pierces his nearly invincible skin. |
| 381 | * YouTalkTooMuch: Besides being a walking calamity, the worst part of fighting him is how Machia doesn't know when to shut up during his rants about his masters, as Mt. Lady can attest. |

| 386 | The modern incarnation of Destro's terrorist organization, they intend to make sure they can impose their idea of a society where people can make use of their Quirks without any restrictions. While their predecessor resorted to terrorism to achieve that objective, the current incarnation is trying to use politics and the media to make Japan accept the idea. |
| 387 | ---- |
| 388 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: They appear much earlier in canon, taking an active part in the story during the timeframe of the first act of the series. |
| 389 | * AdaptationalVillainy: The MLA was a very nasty organization in canon as it was, but here? Oh boy. |
| 390 | ** Their first incarnation was hell-bent on killing Quirkless people, acting no better than the government sanctioned death squads that hunted down Meta-Humans. |
| 391 | ** The current incarnation is more subtle but just as evil. They are ready to go to extreme lengths to destroy Izuku out of sheer pettiness. |
| 392 | ** If the modern incarnation wasn't bad enough, they also use members with weak and seemingly useless Quirks as CannonFodder for their attacks. [[spoiler:Literally. Curious turns them into bombs without their knowledge or consent and they don't figure it out until they are about to die.]] |
| 393 | * AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Nobody will shed tears over a bunch of Quirkist terrorists being killed by Tomura after he steals their Quirks.]] |
| 394 | * DePower: [[spoiler:The surviving members of the MLA Top Brass all have their Quirks stolen by Tomura after he steals All for One's body.]] |
| 395 | * DevilInPlainSight: By the exception of [[ObviouslyEvil Geten]] all of them are this. Re-Destro is the CEO of one of the biggest support item companies in Japan, Curious is a board member of a major magazine, Trumpet is the head of the Hearts and Minds Party, and Skeptic is one of the leaders of an IT firm. |
| 396 | * EvilIsPetty: They have Izuku in their eyesight after he essentially gave them a bad review in front of prospective investors. |
| 397 | * EvilerThanThou: [[spoiler:They pull this against the HPSC, killing their President as well as most of their officers during Valentine's Day Attack.]] |
| 398 | * FantasticAbleism: They hate Quirkless people, openly rejecting any requests that would benefit one of them and deriding them as a remnant of the past that would do best to go extinct. It's also revealed that they discriminate against heteromorphs as well, using them as CannonFodder and limiting their roles as footsoldiers. |
| 399 | * HistoryRepeats: [[spoiler:The current incarnation of the MLA and Destro will clash with a One For All user. Isamu, the Third Torchbearer, had fought the MLA in life, and was the (initially uncredited) reason why Destro was jailed. Re-Destro goes after Izuku, who is the Ninth, and ends up getting defeated by All Might, who is the Eighth.]] |
| 400 | * {{Hypocrite}}: The MLA claims they seek liberation and freedom to use Meta Abilities, but it is clear from Re-Destro's speech [[spoiler:during the MLA Uprising in Chapter 70]] that what they want is control and to oppress those around them. |
| 401 | * InsistentTerminology: They use the term "Meta Ability" instead of "Quirk". |
| 402 | * KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Karma finally catches up with the MLA's modern incarnation after so long over their atrocious treatment towards all those they deem inferior. [[spoiler:Their "glorious revolution" barely lasts a day before being stomped out by heroes, their leader will be forever be remembered as a BigBadWannabe that got owned by a housewife, their lieutenants got easily defeated and then had their Quirks stolen and then got unceremoniously killed in an explosion.]] A fitting end by a nasty organization founded by a hypocritical jackass. |
| 403 | * MightMakesRight: One of the core principles the MLA is built around is that those with strong quirks deserve to lead, while the Quirkless should be nothing more than slaves to be used and discarded (left unsaid is that once all the Quirkless are gone it is those with weak Quirks on the chopping block as scapegoats to be used and discarded as needed). |
| 404 | * ANaziByAnyOtherName: The MLA has straight up fascist rulling structure, purposedly targeting for extermination minority groups they deem inferior while preaching ideals about their superiority as a species. |
| 405 | * OriginalPositionFallacy: Many people with "weak" Quirks join the MLA because they agree with its Quirk supremacist position - not knowing that Re-Destro's plans will lead to them being put in the same position Quirkless people would be until their extinction. |
| 406 | * PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: In addition to their Quirkism towards both heteromorphs, people with weak Quirks and Quirkless, they also refer to the girls of the Ennead by demeaning nicknames like "hang-ons" and "harlots". |
| 407 | * SubparSupremacist: Every single member of the Meta Liberation Army believes a person's worth is tied directly to the strength of their Quirk, but many of their soldiers have weaker Quirks who'd end up at the bottom of the social ladder should they succeed in their goals. |
| 408 | * SuperSupremacist: Their ideology is based on this -- the stronger one's Quirk is, the higher their position in society will be. |
| 409 | * WouldHurtAChild: They have no problem with the idea of having children killed if it furthers their own agenda. |

| 418 | The founder of the Meta Liberation Army. A former freedom fighter who once crossed paths with Isamu, Destro became a Quirkist terrorist bent on "liberating" the use of Meta Abilities and killing as many Quirkless people as possible as part of his revenge plot for his mother's death. |
| 419 | ---- |
| 420 | * DirtyCoward: According to Isamu, Chikara killed himself after he was captured to avoid [[PrisonRape becoming someone's prison bitch]]. |
| 421 | * EvilCounterpart: To Isamu. Both were freedom fighters that fought against the government that hunted metas down, and both had ChargedAttack Quirks. However, Destro became a terrorist bent on destroying society while Isamu stayed true to his virtues, even if society hated him and his kind. |
| 422 | * FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: He attempts to use his mother's death as justification for his terrorist campaign, only for Isamu to call him out, and say that because of said campaign, hundreds of Meta children lost their non-Meta parents and beloved ones, and Destro's own kind agrees with the government that he is a monster and that Quirks should be regulated. |
| 423 | * HeWhoFightsMonsters: Chikara went from a resistance fighter against government sanctioned death squads to a SuperSupremacist terrorist just as bad, if not worse, than said death squads. |
| 424 | * {{Hypocrite}}: He killed the non-Meta parents of Meta children even though his entire thing is about getting revenge for the death of his non-Meta mother. |
| 425 | * NoodleIncident: At the time of his death, he owed Isamu 1500 yen. |
| 426 | * PosthumousCharacter: Died decades ago. |

| 439 | * BigBadWannabe: [[spoiler:Despite being built up as a major threat after his first appearance, he is quickly shown to be this by Chapter 71. Going after Inko and All Might to demoralize Izuku and break the public's morale, respectively, he ends up getting his ass kicked by the two of them to the point where he loses all his teeth and he will forever be remembered as a joke that ended up losing by getting his kidney punched by a civilian.]] |

| 441 | * DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:Dies when Tomura remotely controls All for One's body to escape his cell, steal the MLA members' Quirks, and then self-destruct to bring Tartarus down.]] |
| 442 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: He believes that the only reason heroes are protecting Quirkless people is because the latter have some hold on the former, instead of the former being decent people that do not share his FantasticRacism. |
| 443 | * EvilIsPetty: He starts to target Izuku and the Ennead after they humiliated him and cost him a few business deals, going as far as to support someone making conspiracy videos in an attempt to discredit him. |
| 444 | * GenerationXerox: Zigzagged. Much like his grandfather, he is a bigoted PsychopathicManchild that hates Quirkless people and wants to get rid of them and people with weak Quirks for good. However, Destro had his mother's death as an excuse (although a very poor one) for his hatred towards society. Re-Destro cares simply about power for himself, no matter who gets hurt in the process. |

| 447 | ** [[spoiler:He then later dies ignonimiously after Tomura takes control of All for One's body and steals his Quirk.]] |
| 448 | * {{Jerkass}}: Unbelievably so. Re-Destro's is nothing more than a self-centered jerk that wants society to bend to his will. |
| 449 | * LackOfEmpathy: When he hears how Bakugo had his villain rank increased due to how he used his Quirk to brutally bully Izuku (who was Quirkless at the time), he is disgusted that the law restricts someone's ability to use their Quirk and orders their political ally to repeal the clause that was invoked to punish Bakugo. |
| 450 | * SinisterSchnoz: And what a schnoz Rikiya has! |
| 451 | * SuperSupremacist: Re-Destro straight up believes strong Quirk users should be in charge of everything by virtue of having strong Quirks and is extremely bigoted against the Quirkless as well as those with weak Quirks (which includes a lot of his own soldiers, not that the soldiers realise that). |
| 452 | * PowerIncontinence: "Stress" expresses itself in the form of liver spots on his face. |
| 453 | * TheToothHurts: [[spoiler:[[ExaggeratedTrope Like you wouldn’t believe!]] During Re-Destro's fight with All Might, Inko uses her Quirk to yank out ''every'' tooth in his mouth.]] |
| 454 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: [[spoiler:Unaware of All Might and Inko's recent power-ups, he believes his fight against the retired hero is already won, and that Inko presents no threat to him. CurbStompBattle doesn't ''begin'' to describe how wrong he was.]] |
| 455 | * VilerNewVillain: For all that Destro was bad, Re-Destro is even worse. Destro at least was nominally retaliating against society for the death of his mother. He went about it in the worst possible way, but he still had a reason. Re-Destro on the other hand does not even have a flimsy excuse for being evil, being an outright Quirk Supremacist. |
| 456 | * VillainWithGoodPublicity: His company produces high quality products. [[spoiler:This goes away in Chapter 70, after he reveals his true nature and heritage to Japan by launching an attack to overthrow the government.]] |
| 457 | * VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:After Inko starts using her Quirk to rip out his teeth, he is left enraged and desperate as he starts to lose in his fight against All Might, and is further shaken and enraged as the vestige of Isamu appears before him (while making himself visible to ''only'' him) and verbally tears him down, especially when he reveals the real reason why Destro killed himself. The fact that his defeat ultimately came at the hands of Izuku's mother likely didn't help his situation either.]] |

[[spoiler:And then there's the fact that whatever it was that Sir Nighteye saw when he used his Quirk on her, she's going to be involved in something terrible set to happen in the near future. Later revealed to be Tomura stealing the Quirks of the MLA then killing them and destroying Tartarus.]] |
| 470 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: She has blue skin, grey-purple hair and black eyes with blue irises. [[spoiler:Her skin loses its blue tone after Tomura steals her Quirk.]] |

| 472 | * BeautyIsBad: She is described as having the owner of an inhuman beauty. Inhuman also describes her personality very accurately. |
| 473 | * BreakTheHaughty: If there's one character trait Curious is all about is arrogance, always wearing a smug smile on her face and acting like she can get away with anything. This falls apart by the end of the Uprising arc, after Ochako curb stomps her, [[spoiler: Curious is sent to Tartarus, only for Tomura steal her Quirk and call it worthless to her face, before killing her with it.]] |

| 476 | * FaceDeathWithDespair: [[spoiler:Right before she is killed by Tomura blowing up All for One's body, she is robbed of her Quirk and left a sobbing wreck afterwards, especially when he declares it to be weak right to her face. She's then shown just how weak it is compared to the explosion he makes that kills her and the other MLA members with her.]] |
| 477 | * HateSink: While all MLA members are a nasty bunch, Curious arguably takes the cake as the most vile one. A sociopathic, petty, condescending and arrogant SmugSnake that revels in the chaos she helps bring around her [[spoiler:(and that's not even getting into how she's willing to turn her own foot soldiers into involuntary suicide bombs without a hint of remorse)]]; no wonder seeing Ochako kicking her ass once they finally clash feels so catarthic. |
| 478 | * ImmoralJournalist: She has no problem in using her position to attempt to cast Izuku in a bad light -- the only reason she has failed so far is that she can't find anything that will actually stick. |
| 479 | * ItsPersonal: A one-sided variation of this occurs between her and Ochako due to the former's smear campaign against Izuku. It has likely become more mutual after Ochako kicks her ass in the MLA's routed attack on Valentine's Day. [[spoiler:Not that she'll ever have the chance to act on that newfound animosity, thanks to being dead.]] |

Thanks to their actions, the press is not allowed in a twenty meters radius of the school, which prevents Kizuki and her minions to infiltrate the building and leave bombs behind. |
| 482 | * PropagandaMachine: Her company, Shoowaysha Publishing, spreads the MLA's message through their newspapers and books. |
| 483 | * RightForTheWrongReasons: After being prevented of getting into U.A. and plant some bombs on it thanks to Danger Sense, she believes Nighteye somehow foresaw her intentions and warned the staff. Nighteye himself comments this idea is a bad joke. |
| 484 | * SmugSnake: Going along with all the rest of the MLA, Curious always believes herself to be the best there is no matter how bad things look to her. And then Ochako shows up and lets her know she is nowhere as good as she loves to pretend she is. |
| 485 | * TheSociopath: [[spoiler:She sees nothing wrong with killing people using her Quirk, either by destroying entire buildings or turning them into suicide bombers.]] |
| 486 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Her attempts to make [[TheHero Izuku]] look bad have instead made her the target of [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend Ochako]]'s anger -- who brings her company to the attention of [[spoiler:the Yaoyorozu Group's crack ForensicAccounting team, formed, among others, by Hisashi Midoriya, [[FamedInStory the man who cracked Nezu's finances]] and Izuku's biological father]]. |
| 487 | * WeakButSkilled: She's nothing special in a straight fight, but her Quirk can easily last for over a year, letting her setup countless bombs ahead of time without any indication she did anything at all. [[spoiler:She uses this and her press pass gaining her access to almost anywhere to place thousands of bombs around the country and detonates them as part the MLA's declaration of war.]] Ultimately {{subverted}} during her fight against Nighteye. Being a more skilled fighter, Nighteye easily predicts her moves and overpowers her, since her strategy boiled down to aimlessly shoot explosives with her support item and hope to hit him. And when she gets her ass handed to her by Ochako, the young hero mentions that Bakugo was better at using explosions than Curious, as he actually trained to use them in a fight, so someone like her never stood a chance against actually trained heroes. |
| 488 | * VillainousBreakdown: |
| 489 | ** Goes through one in Chapter 73, after Ochako manages to leave her dangling in the air for her life and turns her last ditch attack (exploding a building) against the MLA by directing the debris toward the foot soldiers. |
| 490 | ** Gets another one in Chapter 74, [[spoiler: right before dying. She is left a weeping mess after Tomura steals her Quirk and calls it worthless to her face.]] |

| 567 | * AdaptationalLateAppearance: Mustard is introduced during the Training Camp attack. Here he debuts during the Work Studies arc. |
| 568 | * AllTheOtherReindeer: He used to be bullied because his Quirk seemed useless. This led to him become a resentful SuperSupremacist. |
| 569 | * CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler:Ends up on the receiving end of this in Chapter 71 at the hands of Monoma, Inasa and Best Jeanist teaming up against him, with the former two using their Quirks to dispel his gas and allowing Best Jeanist to easily subdue him.]] |
| 570 | * DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:Dies when Tomura remotely controls All for One's body to escape his cell, steal the MLA members' Quirks, and then self-destruct to bring Tartarus down.]] |
| 571 | * HeroKiller: [[spoiler:According to Nezu, he killed Japan's Prime Minister during the Uprising.]] |
| 572 | * MeaningfulName: His first name in kanji means "spicy, bitter" a reference to the plant used on mustard gas. And it also ties in with his resentful personality. Shinichi was also teased due to the fact that the first Kanji in 'Hena' is a homophone with the Kanji for fart/passing gas. |
| 573 | * NamedByTheAdaptation: Mustard's real name was never revealed in canon. Here is Shinichi Hena. |
| 574 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: He appears in only two chapters, being swiftly defeated in the second one, but off-page [[spoiler:he manages to successfully kill the Prime Minister and several other high-ranking officials during the Diet attack, throwing Japan into further chaos during and after the MLA Uprising]]. |

In canon, Spinner was initially a NobleDemon that followed Stain's principles about true heroes until later chapters have him fly completely off the moral rail and straight into MoralMyopia. Here, since Stain's broadcast never happened, he is a member of the Meta Liberation Army and a fan of [[FantasticRacism The Finger of Truth channel]]. |

| 634 | * AssholeVictim: The only people who feel sorry for his death are his fanatical followers from the Yakuza, which boils down to Kurono, Nemoto and Mimic. |
| 635 | * BigBadWannabe: He was bent of bringing the Yakuza back to its former glory, only to be arrested by a first-year hero student on his first patrol. |
| 636 | * DeathByAdaptation: He is killed by All for One during the Internship Arc. |
| 637 | * DyingCurse: He manages to use his Quirk one last time before it gets stolen to mangle All for One's hands. Since Overhaul relies on contact for it to work, it becomes useless on the villain's hands. |
| 638 | * GoodPowersBadPeople: {{Lampshaded}} by Izuku. Overhaul's healing capacities make it one of the most powerful healing Quirks in the world, but he uses it for unhinged experiments. Ironic enough, after stealing it from All for One, the first person Izuku heals is one of Chisaki's minions. |

| 667 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: He doesn't seem to understand why the students would want to stop him, as he claims that what he does is a "victimless crime". |

| 670 | * MeaningfulName: He's named after Charles Dawson, the crafter of the Piltdown Man forgery, and Charles Jamrach, the owner of an exotic pet shop in Victorian England plagued by escapees. |
| 671 | * PowerCopying: If he acquires the DNA of an animal that has a Quirk, he can use that Quirk himself while assuming the original holder's form. His primary use of this aspect of his Quirk on-screen has been turning into a mantled howler monkey with Stampede, which terrifies all animals that hear it and compels them to attack until calmed (which frequently requires some degree of physical injury to distract them from the compulsion). |

To add insult to injury, Monoma is able to use Cell Activation where Teruhiko couldn't, as he has type A blood.]] |
| 702 | * MeaningfulName: His first name, Teruhiko, contains kanji for "sky/heaven", "inlay" and "boy". His second name, Arashikura, means "storm/tempest" and "warehouse". |

| 715 | * CurbStompBattle: They get this from the Ennead, the hero students and the teachers protecting Nabu Island. |
| 716 | * QuirkyMinibossSquad: They serve as this to distract the heroes and students at the Island while Nine steals Cell Activation. They are all swiftly defeated before he can do so. |

When they arrive, they are defeated, off-page, by the Ennead and other students and teachers stationed on the Island, showcasing how much the good guys grew in power at this point of the story, with the events of their defeat shown a chapter later. |
| 718 | ** Mummy was taken out of the fight by Ochako throwing a massive object at him at speed, putting him in a crater, then before he got his wits together, Juzo softened the ground underneath him to make him sink into the ground until he was neck deep, then got knocked out by Midnight's Quirk. |
| 719 | ** Slice was walled out by Kirishima and Tetsutetsu, sniped at by Pony, then got her Quirk disabled by Aizawa. While floundering without her Quirk she was distracted by Shinso tricking her into answering to [[PeoplePuppets him]] and swiftly knocked out. When she came to, Mina had used her Quirk to make thioglycolic acid to [[OminousHairLoss make Slice bald]], making Slice effectively Quirkless. |
