Description: Katsuki is a crude, arrogant, short-tempered, and aggressive person, especially at the beginning of the series. Katsuki tends to come off as an anti-hero, if not downright villainous for those not familiar with him. This problematic behavior goes all the way back to his early childhood days, when he was known to bully a young, Quirkless Izuku Midoriya. However, after being accepted into U.A. High School and experiencing several personal defeats, one of them even coming from Izuku, Katsuki has gradually changed into a less antagonistic person, albeit still retaining a lot of his unpleasant traits. While often portrayed negatively, Katsuki's fierce character and competitive drive have actually granted him an important role among Class 1-A, as a sort of inspirational mood-maker.

Summary
Katsuki Bakugou (爆豪勝己 Bakugō Katsuki) is a student in Class 1-A at U.A High School training to become a Pro Hero. He is the complete opposite of Deku, being stubborn, hot-headed, arrogant, and gifted. Despite his bad attitude, he has very high standards of what a hero should be, admiring All Might as much as Deku does.

Mentality
Intelligence: Bakugou is a straight-A student who is a genius in the use of his Quirk, being able to perform subtle lateral calculations and adjustments to propel himself at high speeds while maintaining maneuverability. He's trained himself to incorporate hand-to-hand combat into his Quirk's daily use, allowing him to quickly blast his way through most foes and completely overwhelming Deku in their duel after he came with the intent to grievously harm. In addition, he is a perfectionist and a sore loser, constantly striving to improve himself through continuous study and training with his Quirk. However, his hot-headedness has proven to be a detriment on more than one occasion, causing him to forget his objective at hand in favor of blowing up whatever managed to agitate him.

Morality: Neutral Orderly

Sexual Preference: Heterosexual

Objectives: Become the greatest Heroi in the world, and overcome All-Might and Midoriya.

Tastes: Explosions, destruction and fights to death.

Casually destroyed multiple Villain Bots during U.A.'s Entrance Exam. His strongest explosions were this powerful in the Final Exams Arc) | Building level (Stronger than 5% Deku. Made a huge explosion during his fight with Deku) to Building level (Was stated to be nearly comparable to 8% Deku by other students)

Durability: Building level (Took a beating from a heavily restrained All Might. Can withstand the force of his largest explosions) | Building level (Survived being on the epicenter of his explosion) to Building level (Should be able to take the power of his Quirk)

Speed: Athletic Human (Ran 50 meters in 5.58 seconds in middle school, where the use of Quirks isn't allowed) with Supersonic reactions and combat speed (Can keep up with Todoroki.

Range: Standard melee range, up to tens of meters with explosions

Weaknesses: Bakugou has a short temper and is rather arrogant, causing him to forget the task at hand in favor of blowing up whatever agitated him. He has to keep himself hydrated and warm since he needs to sweat in order to produce his explosions, rendering him virtually powerless in extremely cold and dry conditions.

Key: U.A. Beginnings Saga | Rise of Villains Saga

Arsenal
Standard Equipment:

Grenadier Bracers: An adjustment added to Katsuki's hero costume that stores his nitroglycerin-like sweat. Once filled, he can pull the grenade pin in order to release a large blast, as shown when he fought Izuku in All Might's Heroes vs. Villains test. It has enough explosive power to destroy all parts of the building within its blast radius. This equipment was first used during the Battle Trial.

Improvised Grenades: Around the belt of his Hero costume are several containers made to look like hand grenades. These can store Katsuki's nitroglycerin-like sweat, and be used as regular grenades at a later time. These were first used in a practical way during the Provisional license exam by Denki.

Knee Pads: These are very blunt metallic attachments to Katsuki's knees. They are designed so that he can "kill with his knees", but he has not displayed such use for them as of yet.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Explosion: Bakugou's Quirk allows him to secrete sweat similar to nitroglycerin from his palms and detonate it at will to create explosions. The more Bakugou sweats, the more powerful his explosions become. This essentially means that he will gradually grow in power through the course of the fight. Bakugou is also capable of using small explosions to propel himself and navigate through the air.
 * Blast Rush Turbo: Bakugou throws his hands back and then creates explosions in his palms to propel himself.
