Mei Hatsume is a supporting character in the manga/anime series My Hero Academia. She is a student from Class H-1 of the U.A. High School's Department of Support, and is a student of Power Loader.
She is voiced by Azu Sakura in the Japanese version of the anime, and by Alexis Tipton in the English version.
Appearance[]
Mei is a short girl with a rather mature physique. She has salmon pink hair that is styled into dreadlocks, often reaching to her shoulders. Mei also has a pair of yellow eyes with cross-sign irises, making her eyes resemble a pair of scope lenses.
Personality[]
Mei is very talented with her love for inventing and building up new ideas of creating any type of Support Gear she could make. She often has a habit of calling her inventions by the word "babies".
Despite her intelligence and gifts, Mei can often be obsessive with her inventing and sometimes goes too far, which often resulted in Power Loader scolding her for her recklessness (it doesn't help that she is easily distracted, can sometimes be completely unaware of her surroundings, seems inept at reading body language and social cues, and apparently being oblivious to Izuku's discomfort).
She can also be mischievous when it comes to testing her inventions on others, like putting white-metal armor on Izuku and placing arm bracers on Tenya, as well as the time when she used the latter as an advertisement of getting her name out to support companies during the Sports Festival. She is also quite manipulative and opportunistic when it comes to advertising her inventions, as she sees every opportunity to improve even if her inventions backfired.
However, Mei is very determined, enthusiastic and high-spirited when it comes to helping Pro Heroes in need of Support Gear in the future.
Quotes[]
“ | Mei: Oh, sorry about the sudden explosion. It's been a while, huh? Class 1-A, right? Uhh... Yeah, I forgot all your names already. Izuku: Uh... Izuku... Midoriya, haha... Tenya: I'm Tenya Iida! The man you tricked into being a walking advertisement during the Sports Festival! Mei: Never heard of ya! Well, I'm busy developing new babies [gadgets] so byyye! |
