The ''[[My Hero Academia]]'' [[manga]] and [[anime]] series features a vast world with an extensive cast of characters created by [[Kōhei Horikoshi]]. The series takes place in a fictional world where, currently, more than 80% of the Earth's population possesses some form of [[Superpower (ability)|superhuman ability]], commonly referred to as "Quirks"; the appearance of these abilities has given rise to not only professional heroes, but also the threat of villains.

: Nicknamed {{nihongo4|'''Deku'''|デク}} by his childhood friend Katsuki , based from the Japanese term meaning "good-for-nothing." The English dub makes it an abbreviation for "'''De'''fenseless Izu'''ku'''". Izuku is a quirkless boy who is extremely knowledgeable about heroes and dreams to become one like his idol All Might. Upon meeting the hero while attempting to save Bakugō from a villain, Izuku is chosen by All Might to become the ninth holder of {{nihongo4|'''One For All'''|ワン・フォー・オール|Wan Fō Ōru}}, a Quirk that stockpiles the user's physical strength and unleashes it as a powerful burst; the quirk can also be passed from one person to another. Its existence is kept secret to prevent chaos from the peoples. During his internship with Gran Torino, Izuku learns to use five percent of his power throughout his whole body, which he called "Full Cowling." This minimizes the damage to his body, allowing him to control his Quirk to a greater degree. Later, while at training camp, the class is attacked by villains. This causes Izuku to go beyond his limits, fracturing his arms. After being told that if this were to happen two or three more times, he would lose functionality in his arms. For this reason, he decided that his costume would need some improvements so that it would be easier to punch and not injure himself as easily until he got used to One For All. Realizing that he has potential with his unused legs and has been mimicking All Might in using One For All, Izuku began using his legs as well as his arms, creating the existence of his "Shoot-Style" fighting. As he gradually reaches 20% of his power, Izuku begins to develop a mental connection to the previous users of One For All through the Quirk. Izuku compensates for his physical limitations with a keen sense of strategy (having written at least thirteen notebooks on other heroes, including his peers) and an instinctive desire to save people. While he initially disliked being called "Deku", Izuku is inspired by Ochaco's assumption that it was based on the word {{nihongo4|'''dekiru'''|できる|to be able to/to be capable of}} to embrace the moniker and ultimately adopts it as his Hero name. Deku is the only One For All user who can interact with the ghosts of previous users, who occasionally advise him. It is revealed to Deku that he will eventually manifest six extra Quirks which had originally belonged to his predecessors, giving him a total of seven Quirks. So far, Izuku has unlocked a second Quirk named {{nihongo4|'''Black Whip'''|{{Ruby|黒鞭|クロムチ}}|Kuro Muchi|Black Whip}}; it can create and control dark energy in the form of strong tentacles.

: Katsuki is Izuku's childhood friend and classmate in Class 1-A, whom Izuku calls {{nihongo4|'''Kacchan'''|かっちゃん}}. He possesses the Quirk {{nihongo4|'''Explosion'''|爆破|Bakuha}}, his sweat having nitroglycerin-like properties at which he can detonate at will. Having developed a powerful Quirk at a young age, he grew egotistical from being praised. He respected Izuku, despite Izuku being Quirkless. His egotistical personality only grew as he got older as he became very skilled with his Quirk along with his top-notch combat skills. This caused him to become anti-social, aggressive and prideful. In the beginning of the series, though many make comments to him that he acts more like a villain, Katsuki has aspirations to become a famous hero like All Might while antagonizing Izuku not to enroll in U.A. It is later revealed that he wishes to be a famous hero in order to prove that he is the best. Despite his seemingly rebellious personality, Katsuki is actually very smart and analytical, having the third best grades in the class. This can be seen as he is the only one to deduce Izuku's quirk. He originally assumed Izuku was hiding his Quirk from him and he later deduces One For All's existence and promises to keep it to himself while vowing to surpass Izuku. Needless to say, Bakugo is a dumb piece of crud.

: Ochaco is Izuku's best friend and classmate in Class 1-A. She has pads on her fingertips which activate her Quirk, {{nihongo4|'''Zero Gravity'''|無重力（ゼログラビティ）|Zero Gurabiti}}, which allows her to make any object she touches with all five of her fingers on one hand to become weightless. She becomes nauseous if she uses the ability too much. Similar to Katsuki, she also refers Izuku as "Deku". However, unlike the former, she calls him by his nickname out of affection, commenting that "Deku" never gives up, and eventually calls him {{nihongo4|'''Deku-kun'''|デクくん}}, a move that prompts him to accept the name. Coming from a lower-middle class family of construction workers, Ochaco aspires to become a hero to give her parents financial security despite her father's attempts to encourage to find her own path. Ochaco originally meets Izuku prior to U.A.'s entrance exam, after she stops him from falling over when he tripped on his own foot. Izuku eventually returns the favor by saving her during the entrance exam. Several others later deduce that Ochaco has feelings for Izuku given her anxiety when asked about it. She ultimately decides to put these potential feelings of love aside for the time being, until her feelings later resurface when Izuku loses control of One for All during a Joint training battle against 1-B.

: Tenya is Izuku and Ochako’s best friend. The president of Class 1-A, a very studious boy who seems serious and scary at first glance, is just honest and strict regarding qualifications to become a hero. During the entrance exam, he repeatedly chastises Izuku for what he perceives as disrespect. However, after he witnesses Izuku selflessly save Ochako during the exam, he comes to the (false) belief that Izuku deduced the true nature of the exam. Concluding Izuku is better than him, Tenya immediately apologizes for his behavior and befriends him, despite Izuku's repeated attempts to tell him the truth. Tenya eventually becomes the class president after Izuku, who won by vote but was too nervous to hold the position, forfeited it to him. Tenya's Quirk is {{nihongo4|'''Engine'''|エンジン|Enjin}}, which gives him super-speed via jet engines in his legs. He comes from a well-known family who have been professional heroes for generations. His older brother Tensei, who is the original bearer of the name Ingenium, inspired him to become a hero that will make his family proud. Originally using his own name as his Hero name, Tenya inherits his brother's name after Tensei is crippled by Stain and forced to retire.

: A student in Class 1-A. His Quirk is {{nihongo4|'''Half-Cold Half-Hot'''|半冷半燃|Hanrei Hannen}}, which allows him to generate fire from the left side of his body and ice from the right, though overuse of one side causes him to overheat or become frostbitten respectively. He is considered the strongest student in the class and was admitted to U.A. on recommendation. He is the youngest child of Endeavor, the second top hero after All Might. His father was never able to surpass All Might, therefore putting his efforts into creating a child that eventually could. This lead to him marrying Rei, a woman from a family with a powerful ice quirk. After Todoroki's older siblings were deemed "unworthy" by their father, Shoto was born and considered his masterpiece. Shoto was harshly trained from an early age which his mother Rei tried to protect him from, but only lead to her abuse and eventual insanity. Rei soon began to resent her son for his resemblance to his father, leading to her accidentally burning his left side (which shared Endeavor's coloring) with scalding water. She was institutionalized for her actions. Around this time, he focused only on rejecting his father and eventually forgot his mother's kind words that inspired him to be a hero. Shouto intended to become a top hero using only his mother's Quirk of cryokinesis instead of his father's pyrokinesis as his way to disavow the latter. During his fight with Izuku, Shouto finally remembers why he wants to be a hero and accepts his Fire Quirk as his own instead of his father's. Afterward, he decided to overcome his inner struggle by meeting his mother, in the hope that they can get through their past together. Shouto uses his own name as his Hero name. Shouto has one sister and two brothers, his sisters name is Fuyumi and his brothers names are Natsuo and Touya his brother Touya is the oldest followd by Fuyumi then Natsuo and clearly Shouto.

: A girl in Class 1-A. Her Quirk {{nihongo4|'''Frog'''|蛙|Kaeru}} gives her a [[frog]]-like appearance and abilities such as superior swimming, a tongue that can stretch 20 meters, sticking to and climbing vertical walls, superhuman leaping, natural camouflage, and numbing venom. She is susceptible to cold and will go into hibernation if her body temperature falls too low. She has a reserved and informed personality, but is also insightful, intelligent, and ready to protect the innocent. She is also sharp, being the first one in the class to notice the similarity between Izuku and All Might's Quirk, which briefly panicked Izuku. On the other hand, she is honest to a fault, outright admitting that she always speaks her mind, no matter how hurtful it may be. She also would rather be called “Tsuyu” instead of “Asui.”

: A student in Class 1-A whose Quirk {{nihongo4|'''Hardening'''|硬化|Kōka}} allows him to harden his body to become nearly invulnerable. His Hero name is Red Riot, inspired by another hero, Crimson Riot, whom he admires. Crimson Riot was the one who inspired Eijirō to pursue the ideal of manliness, which he defines as "a life lived without regret." Eijirō struggles with his sense of self-worth, which was exacerbated during a incident in middle school, when his then schoolmate (and future UA classmate) Mina Ashido chased away a giant villain threatening her friends while he stood paralyzed with fear. Since starting high school, he has been dissimulating his self-esteem issues by dyeing his black hair red and spiking it up, and by adopting a boisterous attitude. He made a point to befriend Katsuki as he admires his strength, confidence and determination. The two of them started building a friendship during the Sports Festival.

Within a dark environment, his shadow becomes more powerful but harder to control; in a brightly lit environment, better control comes at a loss of power.

: Yūga is a boy in Class 1-A, supposedly born in [[France]]. He is always seen smiling and is incredibly vain and eccentric, often talking about how much luster he has, much to others' chagrin. His Quirk is {{nihongo4|'''Navel Laser'''|ネビルレーザー|Nebiru Rēzā}}, which allows him to fire a laser blast from his belly button, but he cannot shoot it for longer than a few seconds or it will result in bowel problems. He wears a special belt when using his power to help regulate the laser, while his hero costume allows him to fire the laser from different parts of his body. Throughout the first three seasons of the anime he has been noted to be very scared of confrontations with villains or any adversary he deems stronger than him, but has had occasional fits of courage albeit in a scared manner.

It was only from fighting All Might that he ended up in critical condition despite inflicting mortal injuries to his opponent, and decided to mentor Shigaraki as his successor.

: A demented young girl that has a warrant out for her as a suspect of multiple death incidents caused by blood loss. As a child, she had shown a morbid interest in blood, but her parents became so disgusted with this behavior that they forced her to suppress it and pressured her to live a normal life. She was able to suppress this behavior and lived a normal life until she was a middle school student. After seeing a boy covered in bruises and blood, her abnormal behavior returned and she attacked the boy and sucked his blood out of a straw. After this incident, she later went on the run from the police. She later joins the League of Villains because life is difficult. She is obsessed with blood, admitting that she likes people when they are covered with blood. This obsession leads her to get interested in people who are heavily injured and bleeding. Examples of such are Stain whom she stated she wants to kill and become after seeing his video, and later Izuku after she saw him heavily injured at the time during the attack at the training camp. Her Quirk {{nihongo4|'''Transform'''|変身|Henshin}} allows her to assume the appearance of anyone whose blood she ingests. The length she can stay transformed is based on the amount of blood she has ingested. Her Quirk also allows her to create the same clothes of the person she impersonates, however she has to be naked when doing so as any clothes she wears would overlap the fake created clothes. She is also capable of using the Quirk of whoever she has transformed into if she has prior knowledge of the Quirk through studying and researching.

: An average adult man with light spiked hair and a large scar on his forehead whose Quirk {{Nihongo4|'''Double'''|二倍|Nibai}} allows him to create two copies of anything at a time through touch, creating a perfect clone after memorizing his target's measurements and characteristics that would melt away if injured enough. Jin previously used his Quirk on himself for company due to being orphaned with no where to go after getting a criminal record, eventually using his power to commit robberies and gain infamy. But it backfired when Jin's clones rose up against him over leadership and they eventually kill each other, traumatizing him into never using his ability on himself again in fear that he is not the original. The ordeal also caused him to develop a [[dissociative identity disorder]] with a second explosive and lively personality, wearing his mask as a psychological deterrent to keep himself together. Jin eventually overcomes his trauma during the League's battle against the Meta Liberation Army, using his Quirk to its full country-conquering potential.

: He is known for being one of the smartest villains in the world and acts as the brains of the League of Villains. His face is covered by a smiling mask and he wears gloves, a large and fancy overcoat, boots, and a top hat with a feather. Mr. Compress wears a different mask in the Hideout Raid arc. He is a talkative, humorous person with his allies and enemies alike. Mr. Compress seems to value the possibility of choosing one's beliefs. Although he claims to be good at running away, Mr. Compress expressed disappointment in the abilities of the Hero cadets he met. He also trusts his own judgment, kidnapping a second target beside the one he was assigned to. His Quirk {{Nihongo4|'''Compress'''|コンプレス|Konpuresu}} allows him to "compress" anything in a spherical area into a small marble without actually damaging it. If used on a person, it effectively entraps them, terminating the fight instantly and allowing him to abduct them easily. Kai Chisaki destroyed Mr. Compress' left arm, later outfitted with a prosthetic through Giran's help.

: He is a man with long pink hair and a lizard-like appearance as the result of his Quirk {{Nihongo4|'''Gecko'''|ヤモリ|Yamori}}, which allows him to cling to sheer surfaces. Having suffered constant racism for his appearance, Spinner was inspired by Stain to change society as a villain and lay down his life as supporting Tomura. Greatly admiring Stain to the point of copying his appearance and fighting style, Spinner also respected Stain's ideals enough to protect Izuku for being recognized by Stain as a hero. He used a makeshift sword made from several knives, daggers, hatchets and many other blades which were held together by chains and belts. He commonly carries it around on his back, wrapped in cloth as to not injure himself. The sword was destroyed by Izuku before it could deal any major damage.

Once magnetized, men are polarized south while women are polarized north, the targets either attract or repel each other depending on whether they're of the same sex or not. While unable to magnetize herself, she uses her Quirk in conjunction with a giant magnet which she uses as a bludgeoning weapon. Kenji was later killed by Kai Chisaki.

: Originally an aspiring hero student, Chizome fell into despair after realizing that more students were becoming heroes for money and fame, rather than doing good for the sake of doing good and dropped out to become a street speaker pushing for reform of the Hero system. The general apathy of the public only caused Chizome to fall deeper into darkness until he snapped and gave up on changing the world through peaceful means.

Despite all of this, Danjuro kept his head up and tried to make the best of things, until a chance encounter with an old classmate of his (who had since become a certified hero) caused him to discover that his classmate had completely forgotten him. With his ego in tatters, Danjuro finally cracked and became the flamboyant villain {{nihongo4|Gentle Criminal|ジェントル・クリミナル|Jentoru Kuriminaru}} to ensure that he would never be forgotten or belittled ever again. During an attempt to infiltrate U.A. during the cultural festival, Gentle is stopped and defeated by Izuku, leading to his arrest.

A few of the main characters from My Hero Academia. From left to right: Tenya Iida, Ochako Uraraka, Izuku "Deku" Midoriya, Katsuki "Kacchan" Bakugo and Shōto Todoroki.

The My Hero Academia manga and anime series features a vast world with an extensive cast of characters created by Kōhei Horikoshi. The series takes place in a fictional world where, currently, more than 80% of the Earth's population possesses some form of superhuman ability, commonly referred to as "Quirks;” the appearance of these abilities has given rise to not only professional heroes, but also the threat of villains.

U.A. High School

The main setting of the series; U.A. High School (雄英高校, Yūei Kōkō) is considered by many the top hero school in Japan.

Upon meeting the hero while attempting to save Bakugō from a villain, Izuku is chosen by All Might to become the ninth holder of One For All (ワン・フォー・オール, Wan Fō Ōru), a Quirk that stockpiles the user's physical strength and unleashes it as a powerful burst; the quirk can also be passed from one person to another.

Voiced by: Kōhei Amasaki (Japanese); Austin Tindle (English)
An intelligent, but certifiably crazy, student who is envious of Class 1-A's popularity and is determined to outclass them in any way possible. His Quirk, Copy (コピー, Kopi), allows him to touch a person and use their Quirk for five minutes. He is not limited to using only 1 Quirk at a time.

His Quirk, Steel (スティール, Sutīru), allows Tetsutetsu to make his skin strong as steel, becoming nearly invulnerable while strengthening his attacks. The drawback is that Tetsutetsu needs to maintain the iron levels in his body or else his steel weakens.

Voiced by: Atsushi Imaruoka (Japanese); Dallas Reid (English)
A student who hates losing. One of the two recommendation students of class B. His Quirk Softening (柔化, Yawaraka) enables him to soften things that he touches, turning them into a semi-liquid form.

His Quirk will not work unless he touches both objects.

Voiced by: Hiroshi Kamiya (Japanese); Tyler Walker (English)
A large and muscular student with a glue dispenser-shaped head that has seven "eyeholes". In addition to his enhanced strength that comes with his large size, his Quirk Cemedine (セメダイン, Semedain) enables him to emit glue-like liquid from his "eyeholes" to trap people. He can also control the speed at which it dries.

Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita (Japanese); Kaiji Tang (English)

Setsuna Tokage (取蔭 切奈, Tokage Setsuna) / Lizardy (リザーディ, Rizādi)
Voiced by: Hitomi Nabatame (Japanese); Dawn M. Bennett (English)
One of the recommendation students of Class 1-B, a chatty and confident student with sharp teeth, who has been described as extremely provocative. Her Quirk Lizard Tail Splitter (トカゲのしっぽ切り, Tokage no Shippokiri) allows her to split her body into several pieces and control them telekinetically. She is able to split her body parts into approximately 50 pieces depending on their size and length. However, the pieces of her body will cease to function if separated from her body for too long and will take a moment to regenerate.
Manga Fukidashi (吹出 漫我, Fukidashi Manga) / Comicman (コミックマン, Komikkuman)
Voiced by: Shun'ichi Toki (Japanese); Derek Stephen Prince (English)
A short, expressive student with a speech bubble for a head. His Quirk Comic (コミック, Komikku) allows him to manifest different onomatopoeias into reality in the form of katakana. The onomatopoeia has different effects depending on the word materialized, such as the onomatopoeia for "humid" making the surrounding environment more humid.

Third Year students

Mirio Togata (通形 ミリオ, Tōgata Mirio) / Lemillion (ルミリオン, Rumirion)
Voiced by: Tarusuke Shingaki[7] (Japanese); Ricco Fajardo[8] (English)
Mirio is one of the three top students in U.A. and Sir Nighteye's protégé. He was the most likely to receive "One For All" from All Might until he decided to pass it to Izuku instead. His Quirk Permeation (透過, Tōka) allows him to phase his body through anything solid or liquid, including the ground itself, allowing him to travel through walls and avoid enemy attacks. However, this only applies to his body, leaving him nude when he uses it. To prevent that during action, his hero uniform is made with fibers taken from his hair.
Tamaki Amajiki (天喰 環, Amajiki Tamaki) / Suneater (サンイーター, San'ītā)
Voiced by: Yūto Uemura[7] (Japanese); Aaron Dismuke[8] (English)
Tamaki is one of the three top students in U.A. He seems to be rather socially awkward, as well as lacking confidence in his own abilities and has low self-esteem. Despite that, he still can show his conviction when duty calls. His Quirk Manifest (再現, Saigen) gives him the properties and abilities of anything he eats, from animals to rocks, as long as he can consume them. The drawback is that anything he wishes to manifest must currently be in his digestive system.
Nejire Hado (波動 ねじれ, Hadō Nejire) / Nejire-chan (ねじれちゃん)
Voiced by: Kiyono Yasuno[7] (Japanese); Lindsay Seidel[8] (English)
Nejire is one of the three top students in U.A. with a curious and talkative personality. She can generate spiral-like shockwaves with her Quirk Wave Motion (波動, Hadō), which can be used for attacking or movement.

Other students

Mei Hatsume (発目 明, Hatsume Mei)
Voiced by: Azu Sakura (Japanese); Alexis Tipton (English)
Mei is a student from the Support Course who invents her own hero gadgets and will do anything to make her inventions known (so a Support Company will hire her), such as making students wear them during the Sports Festival to promote their features. Her Quirk is Zoom (ズーム, Zūmu), which allows her to zoom her vision to up to 5 kilometers if she's serious.
Hitoshi Shinso (心操 人使, Shinsō Hitoshi)
Voiced by: Wataru Hatano (Japanese); Jarrod Greene (English)
Hitoshi is a student from the General Course. His Quirk is Brainwashing (洗脳, Sen'nō), which allows him to control those who answer his questions and can only be broken when the victim receives some form of physical contact (such as being shoved by other people or hurting themselves). He is often seen as "someone who fits as Villain more" because of the nature of his ability, but he is determined to become a hero despite this. Because UA Academy's entrance exam for the Hero Course is based on raw physical strength, he applied to the General Course instead. After earning praise for his achievements in the Sports Festival, Eraser Head takes Hitoshi under his wing and prepares him for possible transfer to the Hero Course. He eventually proves himself worthy of the Hero Course, and is set to transfer over in his second year.

Faculty and staff

Toshinori Yagi (八木 俊典, Yagi Toshinori) / All Might (オールマイト, Ōru Maito)
Voiced by: Kenta Miyake (Anime),[1] Tesshō Genda[1] (Vomic) (Japanese); Christopher R. Sabat[2] (English)
The world's greatest Hero, referred by many as the Symbol of Peace (平和の象徴, Heiwa no Shōchō), and Izuku's mentor figure. Initially born Quirkless like Izuku, Toshinori is the eighth holder of the One For All Quirk, which he inherited from his mentor Nana Shimura while attending U.A. High School. He was trained by Gran Torino before traveling abroad to temporarily keep out of sight of All For One after the villain murdered Nana. Toshinori is able to use One For All to assume a muscular appearance akin to American comic book superheroes. Toshinori made a name for himself as All Might, with his Quirk known only to the U.A. principal Nezu, the U.A. school nurse Recovery Girl, his friend in the police force Detective Tsukauchi, and a select few Pro Heroes. Five years before the series, All Might managed to defeat All For One in a battle that severely damaged his body, limiting his use of One For All to three hours. This forces All Might to find a worthy successor to the Quirk, choosing Izuku upon seeing his bravery. All Might eventually exhausts his remaining traces of One For All following his final fight with All For One, retiring to focus on teaching and finishing Izuku's training.
Nezu (根津, Nezu)
Voiced by: Yasuhiro Takato (Japanese); Jerry Jewell (English)
The principal of U.A., one of a few rare non-human animals to develop a Quirk. His Quirk is High Spec (ハイスペック, Hai Supekku), which allows him to have anthropomorphic abilities and extreme intelligence. He is also aware of All Might's secret and has hobbies of lecturing and drinking tea. He also has a sadistic side due to being forced to undergo painful experiments for an unspecified amount of time in his past. A running gag is that he'll often poke fun at the fact that it's unclear what kind of animal he is (dog, mouse, or a bear).

She tends to make provocative poses to attract the media's attention. However, she does seem to take her new job seriously, as shown by when she grew so that she could block Katsuki from Mr. Compress’s attack.

Her Quirk Rewind (人を巻き戻す, Hito o Maki Modosu) allows her to bring an individual's body to a previous state. This Quirk is a result of an extremely rare mutation, and bears no resemblance to any Quirk on either side of her family's lineage. When her Quirk is activated, Eri's horn glows brightly. Those that are in contact or near Eri at the moment of the activation start having their bodies rewound to previous states, undoing or bringing back injuries or modifications from the present or the past. She is capable of reverting people back to a point before they even existed, effectively killing them. Kai Chisaki implies that, with enough mastery, Eri could even de-evolve humanity back into a primal state. Through several tests and experiments, the Eight Precepts of Death were able to utilize the effects of this Quirk to target a person's "Quirk Factor," in order to create Quirk-destroying bullets. Because of her young age and inexperience, Eri is unable to properly control her ability, being able to activate it but unable to stop it. So far, the only known methods to stop Rewind is through Chisaki's disassembling ability and Aizawa's Erasure Quirk ability. Because of that, she is put under custody of U.A. and begins living in the school dorms.
All For One's Unnamed Brother
The younger brother of All For One. He was frail and Quirkless but he had a strong sense of justice and condemned All For One for his malicious ways. All For One cared for his brother but in order to force him to submit, he implanted a Quirk on him, one that could stockpile power. However, the brother discovered that he had an erstwhile Quirk that could only be transferred to others. The stockpiling Quirk merged with the younger brother's Quirk to become One For All. The first user tried to overthrow All For One with his new found power but was too weak to do so. Thus, the defeated brother entrusted the Quirk and the mission to future generations of heroes, praying that One For All would grow strong enough to end All For One's evil. Although the little brother died nine generations ago, his essence was preserved within One For All. In the current era, the brother is finally revived as a spirit residing in One For All. He manages to meet the ninth user, Izuku Midoriya and shows him his memories. The brother assures to help Izuku.
Nana Shimura (志村 菜奈, Shimura Nana)
Voiced by: Mie Sonozaki (Japanese); Stephanie Young (English)
The seventh wielder of One For All, she was Toshinori's mentor who trained him to inherit One For All which he used to assume the identity of All Might. She was good friends with Gran Torino. After Nana's husband died while on duty, she placed her only son in an orphanage for his safety prior to her death at the hands of All For One. Nana's son became the father of Tenko Shimura, whom All For One took under his wing as Tomura Shigaraki to serve both his successor and to place All Might in a compromising position. After her death, Nana's essence and her Quirk was stored within One For All, alongside other users. It is confirmed that Deku has inherited her Quirk.
Taneo Tokuda (特田種男, Tokuda Taneo)
Voiced by: Eiji Hanawa (Japanese); Jay Hickman (English)
Exclusive to the anime, Taneo Tokuda is a freelancing journalist for the magazine publisher Juzo News. He has a Quirk called Whole-Body Lens (全身レンズ, Zenshin Renzu) that enables him to manifest camera lenses on any part of his body as well as print the photographs from his chest. 18 years ago, Taneo witnessed All Might save his father and some people from a burning building. In the present, Taneo arranges for a visit to U-A Academy in order to find out who will succeed All Might. While having taken pictures of the students, he appears to have narrowed it down to Izuku after seeing him interact with All Might who brought a bag of meat buns for the students. While having showed off his Quirk and also talking about his motive to Izuku, Taneo states that he will keep quiet about it until further notice. After Taneo left, Izuku and Ochako brough the bag of meat buns in to share with their fellow students. When the editor-in-chief at Juzo News was not pleased that the story was a dead end which he covered up, Taneo did appease her by showing a picture of All Might eating a meat bun.

Vigilantes Spin-off

Koichi Haimawari (灰廻 航一, Haimawari Kōichi) / The Crawler (ザ・クロウラー, Za Kurourā)
A 19–year old college student whose Quirk is Slide and Glide (滑走, Kassō), allowing him to quickly travel across any flat surface, horizontal or vertical, as long as he touches it with at least three parts of his body. Koichi can also freely increase his speed, though the potential for injury meant he always stays at the speed of a normal bike. He admits to somewhat loathing his Quirk, since its lack of combat application, combined with the fact that he can't slow down when it is in use made it impossible for him to become a professional hero. He eventually begins to train with the help of his fellow vigilantes, allowing him to eventually learn how to control his speed. He has the habit of secretly donning an All Might-themed parka to cover his face and perform ordinary good actions like finding missing objects, helping senior citizens to cross streets or guide lost people across town, until he joins Pop☆Step and Knuckleduster in their effort to stop the Quirk-enhancing drug dealers.
Kazuho Haneyama (羽根山 和歩, Haneyama Kazuho) / Pop☆Step (ポップ☆ステップ, Poppu☆Suteppu)
A high schooler who, secretly, acts as a clandestine idol, dressing in a succubus-like suit to conceal her identity. She usually holds unauthorized concerts on high places, using her Quirk Leap (跳躍, Chōyaku), which allows her to jump several meters high; it also helps her evade capture by the police.
Oguro (雄黒) / "Takeshi Kuroiwa" (黒岩 武司, Kuroiwa Takeshi) / Knuckleduster (ナックルダスター, Nakkurudasutā)
A strong old man who is investigating the trafficking of a mysterious drug around town. His tenacity in battle makes others think he possesses a Quirk related to physical prowess, when he actually has no Quirk at all. He introduces himself as "Takeshi Kuroiwa" to civilians in Koichi's social circle, but this too is an alias. His mission is motivated by the search for his estranged daughter Tamao whose disappearance may be connected to the drug "Trigger".
