Katsuki Bakugo

Katsuki Bakugo is a student in class 1-A at U.A. High School. Also known by his nickname, Kacchan, his Quirk is Explosion. This gives him the ability to create explosions from the sweat of his palms, hence his giant grenade-like gauntlets. Arrogant and short-tempered, Katsuki comes off more as an anti-hero. His aggressive behavior makes him a bully toward Izuku Midoriya, especially because Izuku doesn’t have a Quirk. Nonetheless his depiction has gradually become less antagonistic, and his incredible athleticism and perception make him a fantastic hero.
