League of Villains
Current Members
Tomura Shigaraki
Tomura Shigaraki
The leader of the League of Villains. His gamer lingo and immaturity bely a murderous psychopath who wants nothing more than to kill the Symbol of Peace, All Might. His Quirk, "Decay", allows him to disintegrate anything he touches with all five fingers.
- Adaptational Badass: Shigaraki is capable of using magic in this story, throwing up an ofuda to create a barrier and stave off a furious All Might.
- Ax-Crazy: He casually mentions the idea of murdering 1-A and the Heroes on sight and seems especially excited to kill All Might.
- Bad Powers, Bad People: Shigaraki is a Psychopathic Manchild who can disintegrate anything with a touch and is bent on killing Earth's greatest Hero.
- Big Bad: Of the USJ arc.
- Country Matters: He calls Yamashiro a cunt for being able to fend him off with her Soultaker Sword, which is immune to his Quirk.
- Deer in the Headlights: At the USJ, All Might dares Shigaraki to try and kill him, but Shigaraki freezes at the sight of how intimidating All Might is.
- Did Not Think This Through: See Deer in the Headlights above.
- Evil Sorcerer: He's a bonafide Villain who practices the ancient magic of Onmyōdō.
- Freak Out: When All Might destroys his "Father".
- Lost Technology: According to the author, Shigaraki is among the few people in the world who still practices Onmyōdō.
- Make Them Rot: Anything he touches with all five fingers will disintegrate into dust, but magical defenses can potentially stop it dead in its tracks.
- Paper Talisman: Uses an ofuda
to summon a barrier and protect himself from All Might. - Touch of Death: His Quirk allows him to disintegrate anything he touches with all five fingers. However, magical enchantments, like the one that makes Yamashiro's Soultaker Sword indestructible, can ward off Shigaraki's attempts to destroy it.
- Underestimating Badassery: He writes off Yamashiro as the living equivalent of a Mii Fighter before rushing to kill her. He quickly retreats when she nearly takes his head.
Kurogiri - Black Mist
Kurogiri - Black Mist
Shigaraki's right-hand man. He's everything his leader is not, calm, calculating, and professional, but is no less dangerous. His Quirk, "Warp Gate", allows him to create portals for him and others to travel through.
- Antagonist Abilities: Mass teleportation is an incredibly useful power. Too bad the heroes don't have it.
- Badass in a Nice Suit: Comes impeccably dressed in a Waistcoat of Style. He wears the same outfit while manning the bar that serves as the League's lair.
- No-Nonsense Nemesis: During the attack on USJ, he wastes no time warping Izuku into a zero gravity chamber to keep him from getting help.
- Thinking Up Portals: He's the League's main form of transport due to his ability to create portals.
- Villain Teleportation: His ability to teleport his allies and displace his enemies makes him a powerful asset to the League with no counter among 1-A and their teachers.
- You Can't Thwart Stage One: During the attack on USJ, he effortlessly stops Izuku from getting back to U.A. and ending the fight in an instant.
Former Members
Shinra Taira - Noumu
Shinra Taira - Noumu
The League's strongman and a secret weapon to destroy All Might.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Neutron typically doesn't appear until Superman is an adult.
- Adaptation Expansion: This story expands on Noumu's motivations and history prior to his transformation.
- Adaptational Intelligence: Compared to its canon appearance, which was completely docile outside of following orders, this Noumu has some measure of intelligence, being able to recognize specific individuals and place its head back on after Yamashiro slices it off.
- Adaptation Origin Connection: Before becoming Noumu, he was a test subject for Re-Destro's black market goods.
- Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: There's nothing to indicate that All Might had any connection to Noumu prior to his transformation, but in this story, Neutron was a minor enemy of All Might who would lose every fight they had.
- All for Nothing: Taira became a Noumu just to have a shot at beating All Might, only to be killed by him with ease.
- Ambiguous Situation: According to the author, it's possible that Noumu didn't have his original nuclear power Quirk when his transformation was complete.
- An Arm and a Leg: Frequently has his limbs broken off over the course of the USJ arc, though they always end up growing back. At least, up until his fight with All Might.
- Composite Character: Noumu used to be Neutron.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: He thrashes Izuku and leaves him bloody and unconscious, but ends up on the receiving end of one from All Might.
- Death by Adaptation: In this story, he dies after getting his arms torn off and his skull crushed by All Might.
- A Death in the Limelight: The scene of his death is told entirely from his perspective.
- Death of Personality: Neutron's transformation into Noumu resulted in him losing his memory of his old self.
- From Nobody to Nightmare: He was once the low-level Neutron before being transformed into an All Might-level threat.
- Full-Frontal Assault: After Todoroki forces him to destroy his lower body, he spends the rest of the USJ arc naked.
- Healing Factor: Just like in canon, but by the time he fights All Might, he's taken too much damage to properly heal.
- I Just Want to Be Badass: Neutron wanted to be a big-shot Villain to the point that he willingly let Ujiko turn him into a monster.
- Identity Amnesia: Post-transformation, Noumu can't remember that he used to be Neutron, though he starts to remember over the course of the USJ arc.
- I'm a Humanitarian: In this story, Noumu has a habit of eating human flesh. He would have eaten Todoroki if not for Izuku getting in the way.
- Motive Decay: He became the Noumu in order to defeat All Might, but by the end he couldn't even remember why he wanted to beat All Might so badly.
- Nuclear Mutant: As Neutron, he had a Quirk that let him use nuclear power as a weapon.
- Off with His Head!: Katana cuts off his head at one point in their fight, only for Noumu to just stick it back on his body. Later, All Might punches him so hard and so much that his head is turned to dust, and that time it sticks.
- Rasputinian Death: He dies after getting his head sliced off by Yamashiro, having his lower body frozen off by Todoroki, being pummeled into the ground by Izuku's full strength, and getting his arms torn off and his skull crushed into powder by All Might.
- Rogues' Gallery Transplant: Neutron is typically an enemy of Superman, not All Might.
- Small Name, Big Ego: As Neutron, he was a small-time Villain, yet he still thought he could hold his own against All Might.
- Too Dumb to Live: As Neutron, he constantly picked fights with All Might despite being completely outclassed by him. This made him a laughingstock among his peers and made Re-Destro stop making him suits, as he couldn't get good data from them always getting destroyed the same way.
- Wake-Up Call Boss: Even more so than in canon, what with how he delivered a Curb-Stomp Battle to Izuku.
- Walking Spoiler: Noumu is one thanks to a combination of his actions at the end of the USJ arc and the revelations of his true identity.
- Worf Had the Flu: By the time All Might arrives on the scene for the fateful battle, Noumu has been through a much more difficult gauntlet of opponents who can actually injure him compared to the same scenario in canon, badly stressing both his Shock Absorption and Super Regeneration. An enraged All Might is able to outright kill him after all the damage he took.
Ambush Bug
Ambush Bug
A probably insane woman who likes to comment on everything she sees. She strolls into the League's bar while the Noumu is busy ripping a guy's head off and confronts Izuku at USJ.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Ambush Bug usually doesn't appear until Superman is an adult.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: She seems to be aware that she's in a story, pondering if the "Big man at the keyboard" is getting lazy with his transitions. She also tells Izuku that she's going to have the last word of the chapter and to bring up his grievances next chapter. Izuku finds this irritating because he has no idea what she's talking about.
- Casual Danger Dialogue: Even while pestering an angry Kryptonian, Ambush Bug chatters away as if she's having a friendly conversation with Izuku and snacks on a bag of potato chips.
- Connected All Along: Ambush Bug reveals to Izuku that she was one of the kids he defended from Bakugou’s bullying when they were children. At least, that’s what her memories are telling her.
- Excuse Me While I Multitask: She throws half-hearted punches at Izuku while teleporting out of the way of his attacks and snacking on chips.
- Gender Flip: Ambush Bug is normally male, but this one is female. To an extent, this could make her a Composite Character with the original Ambush Bug and the Earth-11 version of the character.
- Multiple-Choice Past: She claims to be the kid Izuku protected from Bakugou on the day of the accident, but numerous inconsistencies in her story along with her own inability to fully distinguish fact from fiction makes it ambiguous.
- My Suit Is Also Super: Her suit makes her invulnerable, allowing her to punch Izuku without breaking her hand, but she admits it still feels like punching a brick wall.
- Teleporters and Transporters: She's able to teleport at will like Kurogiri, but it's instantaneous and she leaves no indication that she teleported.
- Villain Teleportation: She's associated with the League and can teleport anywhere she pleases without any indication she was there at all.

- Clipped-Wing Angel: He transforms into a spider-like form when fighting Kaori, Uwabami, and Toytoy, but Kaori takes him out before he has a chance to do anything.

Unaffiliated

Sludge Villain
- Ambiguously Human: His body is only vaguely humanoid.
- Blob Monster: His body has the consistency of mud.
- Bullying a Dragon: He continues to attack Izuku after being boiled alive and blown to pieces by by Izuku's Heat Vision and Super-Breath. He then does it again after Izuku frees Bakugou from his grasp and tries to say that All Might isn't coming to save him this time, only for All Might to show up anyways and blow him to pieces again.
- Grand Theft Me: He has a particular liking for finding people with strong Quirks, drowning them in his own sludge, and using their bodies to hide from the authorities.
- Nigh-Invulnerability: Of the "Made of Liquid" variety. As strong as Izuku is, he can't pry off the Sludge Villain because it's basically like trying to grasp water or quicksand. What Izuku can do is boil the Sludge Villain with his Heat Vision to allow himself to breathe before blowing the Villain away with his Super-Breath.
- No Name Given: He's never named in the story. The closest he gets to a name is the fact that his rampage was referred to as "The Sludge Incident".
- Orifice Invasion: He tries to invade his victim's bodies through their nose and mouth to suffocate them to death before using them to hide from the authorities.
- Sealed Evil in a Can: All Might captures the Sludge Villain by sealing him in a plastic bottle. But the Villain escapes after Izuku accidentally knocks the bottle out of All Might's pocket.
- Small Role, Big Impact: If not for his attempt to perform a Grand Theft Me on Izuku, the boy would have never met All Might or be inspired to pursue his dreams again.
- Starter Villain: He's really only relevant to the story as the catalyst that allows Izuku to meet All Might. After he's captured for the last time, he's only mentioned in passing at best.
- Tempting Fate: After Izuku frees Bakugou and throws him to safety, the Sludge Villain prepares to try and kill Izuku, gloating about how All Might isn't going to save him this time. Guess what happens seconds later.Sludge Villain: Not this time! I'm taking you out, for good! And this time! This time, you won't have All Might to… save your…
All Might: What won't he have me do?!
The Ultra-Humanite
The Ultra-Humanite
- Adaptational Badass: In the original comics, the Ultra-Humanite is nothing more than a brilliant mind in a powerful gorilla body. In this story, he has an extremely powerful Quirk called Over Man, which reduces the physical capabilities of any human within 100 meters of him by 75%, allowing him to take on both Izuku and All Might simultaneously!
- Affably Evil: The Ultra-Humanite is genuinely impressed by Izuku's ability to recognize a relatively obscure work of classical music and offers him a Backhanded Compliment for it. He still plans on murdering Izuku anyway for stumbling upon his lair. After his defeat, he ultimately empathizes with Izuku after learning about the latter's identity as an alien and their similar issues with fitting into society. He decides that there is no value in making the boy's life any harder and promises to keep his identity a secret. He also says that it isn't worth outing All Might, figuring that "it wasn't as if I'd be less invincible in my pajamas". All Might is both surprised and impressed by this, saying that the Ultra-Humanite isn't so bad as far as Villains go and considers visiting the Tokyo National Museum to get them to have both the Greco-Buddhist art exhibit and the Endeavor exhibit.
- Antagonist Abilities: His Quirk, Over Man, effectively places a Power Limiter on the physical abilities of all humans within 100 meters of him. Even All Might gets overpowered and outsped while under the effects of this Quirk. The narration even lampshades this, with the explanation cut-in saying that it's hard to consider this ability "anything but overpowered". Izuku is only able to take him by surprise by the sheer virtue of being an alien and suddenly manifesting his ability to fly.
- Badass Boast: Right after effortlessly tossing All Might, the World's Strongest Man, into the ceiling.Izuku: H-He blocked All Might like he is nothing!
Ultra-Humanite: Compared to me, he might as well be. - Bait-and-Switch: He is described as "bald, pale-skinned, with a probable super-genius intellect" by Harrison Wells, bringing Superman's most well-recognized Archenemy, Lex Luthor to mind, only to flip the assumption on its head when the Ultra-Humanite finally reveals himself.
- Body Surf: He has extended his life by transplanting his brain and Quirk into a new body whenever his last one gets old, killing his unfortunate victims in the process.
- Bond Villain Stupidity: The Ultra-Humanite insists on explaining his plans to Izuku rather than trying to kill him outright even though he has the boy at his mercy.
- Card-Carrying Villain: He doesn't try particularly hard to justify his actions and revels in his own infamy. He also believes it to be rude not to explain his Evil Plan to Izuku before trying to kill him.
- Combat Pragmatist: The Ultra-Humanite is wise enough to aim at Izuku while the boy is pinned by robots rather than try to keep up with his Super-Speed.
- Composite Character: He has most of the history of his comics counterpart but the personality and motivations of his DC Animated Universe version.
- Deadpan Snarker: Frequently.Ultra-Humanite: [after listening to Izuku ramble about Endeavor] In retrospect, I should have specified that I wanted Cliff Notes, not a Wikipedia entry.
- Dramatic Irony: Despite learning of All Might's disguise as a frail man, he doesn't bother revealing it to the public because as he learned that day, taking on that frail appearance doesn't make him any less invincible than he normally is, so there'd be no point. He doesn't know the nature of All Might's power and the limited time of use it now has, which actually is a weakness. All Might obviously chooses not to correct him on this point.
- Evil Gloating: As an old-school Villain the Ultra-Humanite is happy to explain his plans to Izuku since he plans on killing the boy soon afterward, even hanging a lampshade on the fact by calling it an "old cliché" and justifying it by stating it'd be "rude" not to do so.
- Evil Is Petty: His reason for destroying the Tokyo National Museum is his disgust that an indefinite Endeavor exhibit is replacing a fine collection of Greco-Buddhist artifacts and artwork. That's it. While he says that he isn't crass enough not to send a bomb threat in advance to clear out the building and is tempted to steal all of the other valuable art from the museum before going through with his plan, he says that anyone who would actually visit the Endeavor exhibit when he decides to destroy it is just asking for it.Izuku: Y-You're going to destroy the TNM? Just because they're getting rid of some good-looking art? That-That's so stupid!
Ultra-Humanite: Why? Because I'm not trying to rob a bank or assassinate a political figure? Not every scheme has to have such cliched criminal agendas.- Though he's revealed to not be so petty that he'd reveal All Might and Izuku's secrets (All Might's secret identity and Izuku's alien origins) just to make their lives harder after they defeat and capture him.
- Faster Than They Look: Even though his Quirk doesn't affect Izuku, all of the Heroes present are astonished by the Ultra-Humanite's agility in his gorilla body, allowing him to maintain the upper-hand in his fight with Izuku despite the latter's Super-Speed and later blasting him through a wall before the boy could react.
- Foreshadowing: He's aware of Endeavor's troubled home life, which fuels his disgust for the exhibit being erected in the Hero's honor in place of a fine Greco-Buddhist art collection.Ultra-Humanite: Unbelievable! Has our society become so enthralled with heroics that the people would put the arts second to men who don't even know how to keep their homes in check?
- Genius Bruiser: The Ultra-Humanite is a polymath and a polyglot, being an especially skilled surgeon who can transplant his own brain into other people and even animals while retaining his Quirk and all of his memories and intelligence. Having spent his entire career fighting them, he also knows even more than Izuku about Heroes. His gorilla body and powerful Quirk make him a match for All Might and Izuku at the same time, only losing after Izuku took him by surprise by learning how to fly.
- Graceful Loser: Despite getting serious dirt on All Might and Izuku that would allow him to ruin their lives, the Ultra-Humanite accepts his defeat and promises not to tell a soul about what he learned out of respect and empathy for Izuku.
- Grievous Harm with a Body: At one point, he grabs Izuku and uses him as a bat against All Might. Izuku isn't hurt, but All Might is sent hurtling into the open jaws of a robot T. rex. This also doubles as a Mythology Gag to a similar scene from the original My Hero Academia, where Izuku gets used as a weapon by All Might against Bakugou during their final exams.
- "Hey, You!" Haymaker: One of the Ultra-Humanite's robots attempts this on Izuku, but gets interrupted by a fireball from Firestorm.
- Irony: The Ultra-Humanite's biggest grievance is his belief that he's a victim of Tall Poppy Syndrome who was being forced to lower himself to the standards of other men. His Quirk does just that to his foes, weakening their abilities until he can easily overpower them.
- Landmarking the Hidden Base: The Ultra-Humanite set up shop inside Mt. Fuji, which is easily Japan's most famous landmark even before Izuku's spaceship crash-landed there. Izuku is surprised when the Ultra-Humanite reveals that he didn't construct the base and it was hollowed out even before he arrived, as evidenced the strange control panel that Izuku is able to access with a touch earlier.
- Mad Scientist: If the whole Card-Carrying Villain deal and Body Surfing shtick didn't give it away for you. He's also very interested in dissecting Izuku to see what makes him tick.
- Man of Kryptonite: The Ultra-Humanite's Quirk, Over Man, allows him to reduce the physical capabilities of any human in his vicinity by up to 75%, regardless of how strong, tough, or fast they are. With this he's able to effortlessly stop a Texas Smash from All Might with a single hand and gradually overpower him in their brawl. Luckily, Izuku is immune, simply because he isn't human, which unfortunately tips off the Ultra-Humanite to Izuku's identity as an alien.
- Mecha-Mooks: He makes hordes of these to guard his lair in Mt. Fuji, raging from rotund grunts to spider-like robots with feminine upper bodies to mecha T. rexes.
- Muscles Are Meaningful: He's quick to emphasize the brawn that his gorilla body grants him, asking All Might and Firestorm if they thought he's defenseless. He also acknowledges that he would have been done for against the both of them if not for this body's raw physical strength.
- Precision F-Strike: The first time he ever actually says "dammit" is after Izuku managed to knock him over, which deactivates his Quirk for the rest of the day. This is what convinces Izuku to start scanning the Ultra-Humanite's vital signs, which allows him to expose the Ultra-Humanite's attempts at false bravado and gives All Might and Firestorm the ability to end the fight.
- Punch Catch: The Ultra-Humanite demonstrates his Quirk's power by effortlessly catching a punch from All Might, who had just come at him full force, with a single hand and delivering his Badass Boast above.
- Secret-Keeper: He learns All Might's Secret Identity and the fact that Izuku is the alien that landed at Mt. Fuji. He refuses to tell a soul out of belief that All Might wouldn't be any less invincible in his pajamas and because he believes that Izuku also suffers from Tall Poppy Syndrome and doesn't want to cause him any further problems.
- Showing Off the New Body: The Ultra-Humanite is quite proud of his physically powerful gorilla body, calling his old body "rank" by comparison and boasting about how he's stronger than All Might when used in tandem with his Quirk.
- Slow Laser: Wields several laser guns that don't quite act like real lasers while fighting Izuku, All Might, and Firestorm.
- Superpower Lottery: His Quirk, Over Man, allows the Ultra-Humanite to weaken the physical capabilities of all humans within a 100 meters of him by up to 75%. This lets him overpower the World's Strongest Man, All Might. Combined with his robot army and gorilla body, he proves to be more than a match for All Might, Firestorm, and Izuku at the same time, only losing when Izuku learns how to fly.
- Super-Strength: Not nearly as pronounced as All Might, but the Ultra-Humanite's gorilla body is still strong enough to stop a punch from him after reducing All Might's physical strength by 75%. He can also punch Izuku hard enough to make him stumble back a few paces and easily pick him up to use him like a bat.
- Tall Poppy Syndrome: He believes himself to be a victim of this as he monologues to Izuku and later comes to believe Izuku to be one as well after discovering his alien origins and the power that he keeps hidden.Ultra-Humanite: [to Izuku] Do you know why I was playing "The Cunning Little Vixen", boy? Because I feel a kinship with the titular character. In the first act, the vixen is forcibly made a pet by the forester and forced to live with a conservative old dachshund. After years of this, she becomes fed up with a life of conformity and escapes back into the wilderness. It’s perfectly understandable; when you’re forced to live with people who only want to suppress your talents and are satisfied with mediocrity, you eventually reach a point where you can’t stomach it any longer and lash out against the world. That’s me. For all the decades I’ve been alive, everywhere I’ve been has been filled with idiots and layabouts who have no appreciation for the things in life with even a modicum of substance. Worst of all, they expect me to just play along with their stupidity! Could you even imagine that? Bringing yourself down to everyone’s level and never allowing yourself to be at your best?
- There's No Kill like Overkill: After blasting Izuku square in the chest with a gun designed to rip atoms to pieces and knocking him off Mt. Fuji, the Ultra-Humanite then proceeds to throw a bomb of his own design afterward just to be sure that he killed Izuku. Granted, Izuku survives and is totally fine afterward, but the thought is still there.
- Villain Has a Point: While he's definitely taking it too far, even Hero fanboy Izuku can't help but admit that he has valid reasons to be angry. All Might seems to agree; as a favor for Ultra-Humanite becoming their Secret-Keeper, he plans on asking the National Museum to keep the collection and the Endeavor exhibit instead of getting rid of one in favor of the other.
- Weaksauce Weakness: As overpowered as the Ultra-Humanite's Quirk is, it can be neutralized simply by knocking him over, which also prevents him from using it for the rest of the day. After this, All Might and Firestorm are able to easily overwhelm a disarmed Ultra-Humanite.
- White Hair, Black Heart: He's using the body of an albino gorilla when Izuku meets him and he's perfectly willing to murder a young, teenaged boy to get rid of an obstacle to his plans. He later decides that he wants to dissect Izuku's corpse after learning about the boy's identity as an alien. That said, he's also Affably Evil and a Graceful Loser who promises to not tell a soul about All Might's and Izuku's Secret Identities out of respect for them.
- Wicked Cultured: The Ultra-Humanite loves the fine arts and despises modern music and artwork. He plays "The Clever Little Vixen" (which he knows by heart) in his lair because it epitomizes his belief that he's a victim of Tall Poppy Syndrome and is pleasantly surprised to learn that Izuku recognizes it. His entire motive for stealing technology from one of the most advanced laboratories in the world and trying to destroy the Tokyo National Museum is his disgust with the fact that a fine collection of Gecro-Buddhist art and artifacts of the Silk Road is going to be archived and replaced with an indefinite gallery devoted to Endeavor.Ultra-Humanite: Yes, really. Come this summer, the TNM will have an entire exhibit hall dedicated to Endeavor. An entire exhibit hall that used to exclusively house some of the finest Greco-Buddhist art and artifacts of the Silk Road.
Izuku: I guess that's kind of bad-
Ultra-Humanite: You guess? [snaps his fingers to make the T. Rex press on Izuku harder] Your country's cultural heritage is being superseded by someone like Endeavor, and all you can do is shrug your shoulders? - Would Hurt a Child: He has no qualms with executing Izuku, a young teenager who had no idea what he was getting into when he visited Mt. Fuji, going so far as to hit him square in the chest with a powerful laser cannon before tossing a bomb after him for good measure. Before this, he happily declared his intention to dissect Izuku to learn the secrets behind his powers.
Kendo Rappa
Kendo Rappa
- Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: Rappa's Quirk lets him easily spin his shoulder back into place after it's dislocated and spun 180 degrees during his arm wrestling match with Izuku.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: In the original My Hero Academia, Rappa isn't introduced until Izuku is into his second semester at U.A. Here, Izuku bumps into him while looking for prizes at the U.A. Culture Festival in the months leading up to the entrance exam.
- Adaptation Origin Connection: Rappa, and the Eight Precepts of Death as whole, are part of the Hasigawa Family, a yakuza group introduced in the Catwoman comics.
- Affably Evil: For a yakuza member, he's quite friendly to those who have earned his respect and manages to go through the entire U.A. Culture Festival without causing a ruckus aside from his spat with Izuku.
- Blood Knight: He loves fighting and is extremely excited when he finds that Izuku can give him a run for his money in the punching department. He tells Izuku to come seek him out for a fight when he gets older.
- "Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: Izuku is more than willing to just hand the Beebo doll over to Rappa, but the student running the game stall is too busy egging them both on for Rappa to listen.Pitch-Black: Hey, I know that I'm interrupting whatever this is supposed to be, but does this mean your dick measuring contest is over and I can just give the kid the doll, already?
Izuku: I guess? Um, you can have the Lord Beebo doll, sir. [whispering] That's actually what I was trying to say from the start.
Rappa: Seriously?! - Early-Bird Cameo: His appearance in chapter 7 is well before he shows up in canon.
- Elite Mook: He's a powerful Villain in his own right, but he's serving under Chisaki as part of the Eight Expendables.
- Graceful Loser: He doesn't take losing to Izuku at the punching machine lying down and challenges Izuku to an arm wrestle, losing rather badly. However, he realizes Izuku's strength is legitimate after losing the arm wrestle, and gives his respect to the Kryptonian.
- Heart Is an Awesome Power: Being able to rotate one's shoulders at high speeds doesn't sound like much on paper, but when it lets one throw incredibly deadly punches at high speeds that can smash through powerful defensive Quirks, it doesn't sound quite so harmless.
- Hot-Blooded: Rappa is rather loud and refuses to let himself get beaten by a scrawny-looking kid until that same kid manages to crush him in an arm wrestle.
- Mugging the Monster: He ends up challenging Izuku to a contest of strength, first at the punching machine and then in an arm wrestle, to determine who gets the Beebo doll. Izuku, predictably, wins effortlessly.
- Muscles Are Meaningful: Rappa is incredibly muscular and as strong as you'd expect him to be. But even this doesn't hold a candle to Izuku's strength.
- One-Sided Arm-Wrestling: Rappa ends up being on the losing end of this trope when he challenges Izuku for the Beebo doll, getting overpowered so badly that he flies into the air as his shoulder is dislocated and his arm twisted around.
- Plague Doctor: Rappa is constantly wearing a huge plague mask as per the motif set by his superiors.
- Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: He tells Izuku, "Lets. Go." while challenging him for the Beebo doll.
- Super-Strength: Rappa's Quirk gives him incredible strength and punching force that made him an undefeated champion in an underground fighting ring before joining the yakuza, nearly overwhelming a veteran Pro Hero like Fatgum in his home series. But even this strength pales in comparison to Izuku's Kryptonian strength.
- Villains Out Shopping: Despite being a hitman for the yakuza and a massive Blood Knight, he shows up at the U.A. Culture Festival in hopes of getting a doll for a kid under his bosses orders.
- Villain Respect: After seeing Izuku's physical strength, Rappa develops a great amount of respect for him and looks forward to the day when Izuku is old enough for them to properly brawl.
- Wounded Gazelle Gambit: Played for Laughs. After his arm wrestle with Izuku, Rappa is sent flying into the air and lands hard enough that his shoulder is twisted all the way around. Izuku immediately starts apologizing and screaming about what he's done while Rappa angrily asks if Izuku thinks he's okay. A short while later, Rappa resets his shoulder with his Quirk, revealing that he'd been playing Izuku the whole time.Izuku: Ahhh! I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to-are you okay?!
Rappa: [arm twisted 180 degrees] "Okay"? "Okay"? "Okay"?! You think this is okay?!
Izuku: Ahhhh!
Rappa: You think this is okay, kid?! 'Cause if you do… then you're totally right to do so. [spins his shoulder back into place]
Izuku: Wh-What?
Rappa: Ha! Got you good, kid! Ah, if I had 100 yen every time I got someone to have that look on your face.
Izuku: [under his breath] Yeah, real funny.
Robo-Octo-Ape
Robo-Octo-Ape
- A.I. Is a Crapshoot: The crux of its character.
- Adaptational Heroism: While the Robo-Octo-Ape isn't portrayed in a positive light, it was only causing destruction because of an error in its programming as opposed to simply being evil like in the comics.
- Ascended Extra: Robo-Octo-Ape appears for a grand total of two pages in the comics, yet it's the main antagonist of a side story here.
- Breath Weapon: One of its main forms of attack.
- Combat Tentacles: One of its main forms of attack.
- Combining Mecha: It's part robot octopus, part robot gorilla, part robot robot.
- Dropped a Bridge on Him: Just when it seemed like Katana, Lunch Rush and Hana were in for a second stage of a fight after it splits into its base components, Alexis hacks its programming and shuts it down.
- Eating Machine: A side-effect of Mei using old recordings of Cultivating Mass with Fat Gum to contruct its AI.
- Good Thing You Can Heal: Its body is made of a liquid metal that allows it to regrow its limbs when they're severed.
- Rogues' Gallery Transplant: It was an enemy of Mon-El, Doctor Light, Rising Sun and Congorilla in the comics, but here it's one for Katana.
Mister Mxyzptlk
Mister Mxyzptlk
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Mister Mxyzptlk gets involved with Izuku when he's a child, whereas he typically doesn't start antagonizing Superman until he's an adult.
- Alien Geometries: His power is derived from the fact that he's five-dimensional compared to mere three-dimensional beings.
- An Offer You Can't Refuse: He's thoroughly pissed when Izuku flatly refuses Mxyzptlk's attempts to play with him, telling Izuku that he doesn't have a choice.Izuku: No.
Mxyzptlk: Hey, at least think about-
Izuku: No!
Mxyzptlk: Yeah, well, my friends doesn't exactly have a choice in the matter. I already decided to play my games with you, and I'm gonna do it! - Badass Fingersnap: He can flip the laws of reality on their heads simply by snapping his fingers.
- Beware the Silly Ones: He's a cartoonish manchild through and through, but his power is unbelievable and he could wipe out all of reality with a fart or a sneeze if he felt like it. He's also extremely callous about life and people in general, turning Inko into a dog on a whim.
- Blue-and-Orange Morality: He doesn't seem to care about good and evil or the consequences of his actions because he can almost always just poof everything back with a snap of his fingers. He's only concern is alleviating his own boredom, which involves pestering the heck out of Izuku.
- Character Tics: He almost always refers to Izuku as "my friends" but flip-flops between singular and plural verbs and pronouns.
- Dastardly Dapper Derby: He wears a bowler hat and is a manchild intent on forcing Izuku to play with him.
- Fireball Eyeballs: Has these when Izuku protests how unfair their "game" is.
- Great Gazoo: He's a wacky imp from the Fifth Dimension who wants nothing more than to play games with Izuku.
- Jerkass: He's rude, callous, annoying and extremely demanding, refusing to ever take no for an answer and tearing apart the laws of reality just to entertain himself.
- Instant Costume Change: He instantly changes Izuku's clothes into his costume in preparation for their "game".
- It Amused Me: He just wants to pester and torment Izuku for his own amusement.
- Julius Beethoven da Vinci: According to him, fifth-dimensional beings are responsible for the legends about tiny little magical people like leprechauns, imps, and yokai.
- Manchild: He's obsessed with satisfying his boredom by playing "games" with Izuku and throws a temper tantrum when Izuku refuses. He also calls Izuku "my friends" even when they've only just met.
- Large Ham: He's quite loud and can ham it up with the best of them. Check out all the exclamation points.Mxyzptlk: Do my friends wanna know why I said that living in the Fifth Dimension is boring? Because when everyone and their grandmas can break reality with a fart, trying to mess with someone is impossible! The whole reason we started coming to the Third Dimension was because there was no one who could do the stuff we can do, but after a few billion years, even that got boring. There was a bit of a resurgence when everyone started getting superpowers all of a sudden, but even that ran its course. Bat-Mite stopped messing around with Batman after he settled down, Qwsp didn't feel right about bothering Fishboy after he got his Quirk, and the rest of us, well, I guess we were just sick and tired of humans. But aliens, now that was a market with untapped potential! Aliens could do so much more than humans could ever dream of, so messing around with them would be way more fun! Of course, that ended up running its course, too. The Lantern War made basically all the aliens hightail it outta here so no one could bother them; it even made Zook's buddy vanish, and they got along so well! It looked like we'd never find anyone worth having fun with again, but then my friends showed up!
- Laughably Evil: As scary and dangerous as Mxyzptlk is, he's also a goofball who is constantly pulling cartoonish pranks and gags to watch Izuku's reaction and ends up banishing himself back to the Fifth Dimension by accident.
- More than Three Dimensions: He hails from the Fifth Dimension, referring to three-dimensional beings as primitive by comparison.
- The Napoleon: He's pint-sized and extremely domineering when it comes to getting his way. He can't take no for an answer and is devoted to pranking and annoying Izuku as much as possible.
- Ninja Log: He quickly replaces himself with a dummy with a henohenomoheji for a face after Izuku grabs him by the collar.
- No Ontological Inertia: Everything that happened after his arrival is magically undone the moment he's banished back to the Fifth Dimension.
- Physical God: Mxyzptlk, like all denizens of the Fifth Dimension, can "break reality with a fart". He has all of Yz's and Dark Shadow's powers but none of the wishing limitations. There's absolutely nothing Izuku can do to fight him directly and Mxyztplk's presence alone can tear holes in space and destabilize reality. Even K.E.L.E.X. is alarmed in Mxyztplk's presence and calls him a threat "far greater than anything you can imagine".
- Pint-Sized Powerhouse: He's an imp even smaller than Mineta, yet he possesses unfathomable power in the Third Dimension.
- Puny Earthlings: He calls Earth "a little dirtball" and is bored with humanity. The only reason why he showed up is because he learned a super strong alien has called it home.
- Reality Warper: Like Dark Shadow and Yz, Mxyzptlk can warp reality however he pleases. Unlike those two, he doesn't have any limitations or boundaries based on wishing. He casually turns Inko into a dog, places clown-nosed snakes with trumpets for tails inside chicken eggs before taking one of those snakes and eating it like a hot dog.
- Secondary Color Nemesis: Wears purple in contrast to Clark Kent's traditional red, yellow, and blue. But this isn't as noticeable in this story as Izuku's costume is green, white, and silver.
- Shout-Out: His tendency to refer to Izuku as "my friends" is a reference to the speech patterns of the Commendatore in Killing Commendatore.
- Story-Breaker Power: There's virtually nothing in the setting that can cause Mxyzptlk serious harm and he can do practically anything in the Third Dimension. The only things stopping him from tearing reality to pieces are his obsession with playing with Izuku and his willingness to limit himself to play his games.
- Stroke the Beard: Engages in some of this while thinking about Izuku's protests before conjuring an electric razor to shave it off.
- Time Abyss: He's been around for millions, billions, or even jillions of years. He can't even remember how old he is.
- Toon Physics: Like Dark Shadow, Mxyzptlk pays little heed to paltry things like "physics" and marches to the beat of his own drum, eating a snake like a hot dog, turning it into a bottomless bowl of ramen, and unzipping the fabric of space like an old jacket before making it explode.
- Weaksauce Weakness: He can be banished back to the Fifth Dimension for three months if he's tricked into saying his name backwards. Izuku ends up accomplishing this by accident when he protests the conditions of their game.
Koujou Joubu
Koujou Joubu
A two-bit Villain and a failed circus performer. In the present day, he's locked up at the Misukatonikku Mental Health Institution, but when Izuku was a child, he was possessed by a time-traveling Brainiac in an attempt to kill him.
- Adaptation Name Change: From Milton Fine to Koujou Joubu.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: He's purple-skinned.
- Ambiguous Situation: It's unclear if Brainiac's possession of Joubu is a case of Demonic Possession or Symbiotic Possession.
- Bilingual Bonus: "Koujou" is the Japanese word for "mill," which is what "Milton" is derived from, and "Joubu" translates into "Fine." Together, the two indicate that "Koujou Joubu" is this universe's version of "Milton Fine."
- Combat Tentacles: He sprouts numerous metal tentacles from his back to gag and restrain Izuku before attempting to choke the life out of him.
- Foregone Conclusion: Joubu being locked up in an asylum in the present means that Brainiac's plan is destined to fail.
- Punched Across the Room: He's knocked down the hallway courtesy of Jarro. Jarro's compatriots follow up by sending him flying with a Combination Attack to get him away from Izuku.
- Race Lift: This version of Milton Fine is Japanese.
- Super-Strength: He can punch through a door and tear it off its hinges before easily pinning a five-year-old Izuku to the floor with a single hand.

- Abusive Parents: His father constantly beat him and his sister.
- Adaptational Badass: This version of Captain Cold is a Quirk user.
- An Ice Person: He uses his "cold-gun" to achieve this effect.
- Anti-Villain: Although Captain Cold is a resolute career criminal, his professionalism, sense of honor and general disinterest in murdering people other than the Flash makes him a very sympathetic and likable character.
- Arch-Enemy: Of the Flash Family.
- Chest Blaster: His Quirk, Lionheart, lets him fire lion-shaped blasts of energy from his chest.
- Composite Character: Between the Captain Cold from the comics and the Captain Cold from The Flash (2014).
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: His sister.
- Evil Feels Good: He originally got involved in crime to support him and sister, but after a while, he discovered that he liked being bad.
- Evil Genius: Just like in the comics; for extra emphasis, Snart in this story was in the Support Department at Libby Lawrence High before dropping out.
- Greed: His main motivation.
- Large Ham: His interaction with the Flashes paint him as such.
- Meaningful Name: "Leonard" literally translates into "lionhearted".
Himiko Toga
Himiko Toga
- Adaptational Badass: Himiko appears to have some form of Super-Strength and Super-Speed in this story.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: In this story, Himiko first appears at the end of the USJ arc.
- Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Himiko appears to have some kind of connection to Izuku that she didn't have in canon.
- Ambiguous Situation: Chapter seventeen makes it clear that she has some kind of connection to Izuku, but the nature of that connection isn't clarified.
- Cute But Psycho: She's a cute teenage girl, but completely bonkers.
- Cute Little Fangs
- Lack of Empathy: Himiko is unable to process why people would be mourning Neutron, saying that a person is worthless once they're dead.
- The Sociopath: See Lack of Empathy above.
- Wham Line: "Tell me, did he fly?"
Future Members of Izuku's Rogues Gallery
Brainiac
Brainiac
An alien from the planet Colu who's attempted multiple genocides on a galactic scale, only to be constantly thwarted by Superman, AKA Izuku Midoriya's future self. At some point in the future, he decided to go back in time to kill Izuku when he was a child.
- Big Bad: Of the prequel story Time and Chance.
- Bond Villain Stupidity: Even though he had Izuku at his mercy and could "kill him in nary a millisecond", he decides to slowly choke the life out of him to savor Izuku's screams of agony and terror. This lets Jarro arrive in time to save Izuku and stall long enough for the other Legends to arrive.
- Composite Character: This version of Brainiac is an evil Coluan like in the comics, but his appearance is taken from the DCAU version of his character (his time travel plan is also taken directly from an episode of Superman: The Animated Series where he does the same thing.
- Foregone Conclusion: Since Brainiac's the Big Bad of a prequel story, he obviously fails to kill Izuku.
- Hero's Evil Predecessor: Of Brainiac 5, his descendant and a core member of the Legion of Super-Heroes.
- Make Wrong What Once Went Right: Time and Chance has him going back in time to kill Superman before he can become a threat to him.
- Starter Villain: Technically, as while the Sludge Villain is the first Villain introduced in the story, Brainiac is the first Villain Izuku deals with chronologically.
- Would Hurt a Child: He has no problems trying to squeeze the life out of a screaming, crying five-year-old.
