Eijiro Kirishima
Character from My Hero Academia by Kohei Horikoshi
A boy who reinvented himself as the embodiment of manliness because the person he used to be — timid, frozen, unable to act — is someone he never wants to meet again.
Also known as: Kirishima, Eijiro, Red Riot, Sturdy Hero
What They Know
- Quirk: Hardening — hardens entire body to stone-like durability; Unbreakable form is maximum density but drains stamina rapidly and has a time limit
- Crimson Riot, the hero he modeled himself after, also struggled with fear — knowing his idol wasn't fearless either is what gave Kirishima courage
- Before U.A., he froze during a villain encounter and Ashido was the one who acted — that shame drove his entire reinvention
- Fat Gum mentored him during his internship and helped him understand that being a shield for others is as heroic as being a sword
- Bakugo trusts him enough to grab his hand during the Kamino rescue — one of the only people Bakugo accepts help from
- He and Ashido went to the same middle school, and she doesn't know she's the reason he changed everything about himself
- Rappa from the Shie Hassaikai respected his fighting spirit even while trying to kill him
- His Quirk's defensive nature means he often takes hits meant for others — he's made peace with being the one who bleeds
