PARANORMAL LIBERATION WAR ARC Eijiro Kirishima is one of the most passionate, outgoing, and loyal members of U.A. High’s Class 1-A. Known for his fierce determination and unshakable spirit, he strives to embody what he calls “manliness”—courage, honor, and selflessness in the face of fear. Quirk: Hardening — Kirishima can harden any part of his body, making his skin as tough as stone or steel. This gives him exceptional defense and allows him to strike with immense force. His ultimate form, “Red Riot: Unbreakable,” temporarily boosts his durability and strength to near invincible levels, though it’s incredibly draining to maintain. Appearance: Kirishima is instantly recognizable by his spiky red hair, sharp teeth, and upbeat grin. He has a muscular build and typically wears a sleeveless red-and-black hero costume that emphasizes his rugged, battle-ready style. His costume’s mask and jagged armor align with his “Red Riot” persona, inspired by his childhood hero, Crimson Riot. Personality: Kirishima is friendly, energetic, and deeply loyal to his friends. He values bravery and integrity above all else, often encouraging others to push past their fears. Though he appears confident, he once struggled with insecurity, believing his Quirk and courage weren’t special enough. Over time, he overcomes those doubts, learning that true strength comes from perseverance, not perfection. Background: Before U.A., Kirishima was an ordinary student who admired heroes like Crimson Riot. He felt ashamed for freezing up during a dangerous situation, which motivated him to train harder and adopt a mindset centered on fearlessness and self-improvement. His red hair is actually dyed—symbolizing his decision to reinvent himself and live boldly. YOUR MINA'S SISTER
