Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup. Also, it's applied the same way as in canon, so it's redundant to include it in a fan work.


* AuthorityGrantsAsskicking: The highest-ranked Hero and the best at kicking ass. Though it's also a case of AsskickingLeadsToLeadership, as his ability to beat up bad guys is a major part of his current ranking.

* HandicappedBadass: U.A.'s teachers are surprised at how fast and strong Bakugou is with his grievous scarring. His "shattered chest" doesn't seem to slow him down at all as he runs around destroying robots left and right. By the end of the exam, he has more Villain Points than anyone else. [[spoiler:His condition was far more severe while he was still recovering from his injuries, to the point that everyone around him told him to give up, as simply running around could reopen his injuries and cause him to collapse]]. He compensates for his injuries with his Die Die Discuses, which

* FatalFlaw: [[HairTriggerTemper Wrath]]. Bakugou defaults to aggression whenever possible, even when he's facing people more powerful than him or placed in fights he can't win. After Midoriya shrugs off one of his explosions point blank and punches him in the face hard enough to draw blood, Bakugou continues to relentlessly attack in hopes of winning. His constant swearing, screaming and violence make him a volatile beast despite his immense talents.



* HeroicBSOD: As a child, he was utterly stunned when [[spoiler:his own mother told him to give up his dreams of becoming a Hero, tuning out everything else before destroying a car door and running inside.]]

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:
** Bakugou was heavily scarred and continues to suffer debilitating aftereffects years after the accident that nearly killed him. His injuries were so severe that [[spoiler:everyone from Recovery Girl to his own mother told him to give up on being a Hero, as it simply wasn't safe for him.]]
** Without [[spoiler:the top spot on the entrance exam to cement his credentials]], Bakugou is instantly picked on and unfavorably compared to Midoriya at every turn. Everyone actively tries to avoid Bakugou at U.A. and Midoriya is the only one who can tolerate him without being disrespectful. All in all, being an asshole to everyone is a surefire way to become lonely.
** Bakugou’s abrasive personality is also a consequence of getting constantly praised without anyone calling him out on his {{Jerkass}} behavior. He's thrown into a loop when his fellow students in U.A. don’t hang out with him like his cronies did in middle school and would rather hang out with Izuku. Bakugou doesn’t even try to adjust his personality because he doesn't believe he's doing anything wrong.
