MECH
In General
- Anti-Magical Faction: They are an organization composed mostly of Quirkless individuals.
- Badass Normal: They are Quirkless villains who can fight on par with some of Japan's Top 10 Heroes with the use of their advanced technology.
- Big Bad Duumvirate: Forms this with Swindle and Skullcruncher at the end of Chapter 66.
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: While MECH is working with Black, their relationship is solely pragmatic, and neither Silas nor his men seem to like him.
- Un-Sorcerer: According to Silas, the majority of MECH's members are Quirkless individuals who wish to change the world through the use of advanced technology to replace the society of Heroes and Villains.
- Villain Team-Up: Forms this with Swindle and Skullcruncher at the end of Chapter 66.
Silas
Quirk: Quirkless
Silas is the leader of the terrorist organization known as MECH who wishes to destroy superhuman society by stealing the most advanced pieces of technology.
- Foil: To Fowler. Two serious, capable, highly trained, and experienced military men. Fowler still serves his country and his planet as liaison to the Autobots, while Silas left the service in disgrace and now works towards a darker purpose. For bonus points, if Silas's word is true, then both of them are Quirkless.
- Hypocrite: For all his complaints about the world spawning Heroes and Villains due to the existence of Quirks, Silas has no problem creating villains of his own. Agent Fowler and Optimus even lampshade this.
- Soft-Spoken Sadist: From the way he and Swindle were planning on kidnapping the U.A. students' parents, he seems to be getting a kick out of "demoralising them in the most harrowing way possible".
- Suspiciously Similar Substitute: In a way, Silas is one to Flect Turn. Both are leaders of villainous organizations who see Quirks as a problem of the world (MECH and Humarise, respectively). While Flect believes that Quirks will lead to humanity's extinction, Silas sees Quirks as the reason why humanity has stagnated in technological advancements. Both use their organization's vast resources to get rid of Hero Society entirely.
- Villain Has a Point: In his debut speech to Fowler, Silas points out how it seems like all the advances in technology these days are good for is providing support gear for heroes instead of using them to help those who needed it most, such as the Quirkless. He's also right in pointing out that humanity has stagnated in developing space travel due to the existence of Quirks.
Mr. Black
Quirk: N/A
A scientist who works with MECH as well as their main investor who provides them their technology, along with the work of his Enforcers.
- Adaptational Origin Connection: In addition to being the one who created the enhancements that Rhodes uses and a major investor of MECH, he's at least partially behind Sexton, Archer, and Sutton's abilities.
- Cut Lex Luthor a Check: Black was able to create technology that grants superpowers to regular Muggle criminals, allowing them to contend with some of the Top 10 Pro Heroes of Japan. Considering the world of My Hero is one where Everyone Is a Super, such technology would've revolutionised the world.
- The Friend Nobody Likes: Black may be good at what he does, but his smug and arrogant personality really annoys Silas and his men.
- Green-Eyed Monster: He despises Isaac Sumdac for his success, and wishes to destroy the Autobots before he gets to meet them.
- Mythology Gag: In TFA's original concept, Meltdown would've been responsible for ALL of the human villains in the show. Here, he is for the Enforcers, who are the villains from Animated.
- The Team Benefactor: He's MECH's main investor and is the one responsible for creating most of the technology that its members possess.
