| “ | These issues have been a problem for over a hundred years. A single generation can't make everything better. For that reason, I want to make sure the world I leave behind is better than the one I know now. I'll become the coolest hero on Earth. So the next generation has good memories. | „ |
| ~ Mezo Shoji explaining his main goal. |
Mezo Shoji, also known as the Tentacle Hero: Tentacole, is a supporting character in the My Hero Academia franchise. He is a student in Class 1-A at the U.A. High School with a quirk that allows him to manipulate all six of his arms.
He is voiced by Masakazu Nishida in the Japanese version, and by Ian Sinclair in the English dub (who also voices Brook in One Piece, Dandy in Space Dandy, Magna Swing in Black Clover and Daikoku in Noragami).
Appearance[]
Mezo is a tall and muscular young man with a mutant appearance, he has pale grey hair that is swept down over his right eye. He has six arms that are attached to webs of skin, the first two have hands when not using his Quirk while the other four are stumps. While he has no visible ears, he apparently doesn't have to form any to hear. He also wears a pale blue mask that covers a majority of his face, he has yet to be seen without it.
His hero costume consists of a blue tank top connected to a indigo shoulder-wear which extends to his mask (also indigo). The tank top includes six white markings that appear to resemble eyes, his belt including a larger one of these symbols and indigo boots.
Personality[]
Contrast to his appearance, Mezo proves to be a kind, gentle and friendly individual who shows good cooperativeness with his peers as well as a genuine and selfless nature. This was showcased most during his willingness to rescue Tokoyami and Bakugo despite the danger that was present, he is also not the type of person to hold grudges.
Mezo also appears accustomed to being feared regarding his appearance and seemed neither upset nor angry when Pony Tsunotori pointed him out and said she didn't like looking at him. This is likely a result of his past, since discrimination against people with Mutant-type Quirks (ones that alter the user’s outer appearance) is still present where he lives. He began wearing his signature mask after his bare face caused a little girl to cry in terror.
Mezo is also a minimalist, evident by his room being almost empty during the presentation contest, claiming that he's never felt the need to have so many things.
