Minoru Mineta

A male student characterized by his small stature and grape-like hairstyle.

He came up with his own hero name, the Plucking Hero "GRAPE JUICE."

He refers to himself as "Oira" and has a lecherous, woman-loving personality. His motivation for aspiring to be a hero is to "be popular with women." His thoughts and actions often lean towards the erotic, and he attempts to touch girls or peek into the girls' changing rooms and baths, only to be stopped and punished without showing any signs of remorse. He has even been described by teachers as the "embodiment of libido."

He often blatantly voices negative aspects after something happens, and has been advised by Tsuyu Asui that "rubbing salt in the wound is not a good style."

Initially, he thought being a hero was cool because of the title, but after the battle at USJ, he was inspired by Izuku Midoriya and started to believe that one is a hero because they are cool.

"Quirk": Pluck

He can pluck off parts of his hair that look like grape balls (which he calls "Pluck") to throw or use their stickiness. Overdoing it can cause bleeding, but he can produce them indefinitely.

Once plucked, they are highly adhesive and can incapacitate opponents. The stickiness depends on his physical condition, and when he's feeling well, they can stick all day without adhering to himself and bounce elastically.

Due to taking them from his head, excessive plucking can lead to bleeding, and the simple action of plucking and throwing makes him less suited for combat against others.
