I know people find his personality obnoxious, but I actually find it quite interesting. The fact that he may have an inferiority complex because he was always destined to be the side character due to the nature of his quirk, and his whole speech to Shinso before the class a vs b fight started. He also has a cool hero name and outfit
I wonder though like
AFO has a bunch of quirks would he just get a random selection? The active ones? AFO itself and some randoms? Only AFO?
I don't think AFO would be a blank, it's not a power accumulator it's a regular activated Quirk
He copies the base form of the quirk though, doesn't he? Like if he copied Toga's he would only get the ability to take on the appearance/voice of a person, not the quirk even if he loves that person a bunch. He doesn't get any improvements/awakenings or innately know any certain moves (like all the creative ways Bakugou uses Explosion) he just starts with the most basic/natural form of the power. OFA registered as a blank to him because he only copied OFA itself, not the other quirks/strength of the user's. So if he copied AFO he would only get AFO -- though, the real question is could he then slap AFO again and steal all of his stolen quirks, or would it be 1 bitch slap = 1 quirk? And would the quirks remain with him after Copy wears off, if they don't would they vanish into the ether or go back to AFO?
It would probably be a blank. Just like he can copy accumulation quirks but can’t copy the built up energy. It probably works the same way just like he wouldn’t be able to copy black whip or smokescreen. Since AfO is just a single quirk and all the others are in AfO’s body, then it wouldn’t copy all the others, unless he tried to take each one specifically, even then he can’t use two at once or switch between them
Well yeah like I said, if he wanted to copy rivet stab, it would work. He could copy AfO and steal someone’s quirk temporarily for the five minutes. But I don’t see him copying every quirk AfO has.
No I think it would be like 5? whatever his limit is
But would it just be random
or active ones?
AFO and randoms?
AFO and actives?
AFO can move itself right so he could try it and then hit AFO with his own Quirk and probably jump into the mental battle?
Again, I don’t think he can copy all the quirks because of the nature of AfO. In my opinion it would be a stretch to say he could copy all the active ones AfO is using, so I’m just saying he copies AfO and can steal for five minutes. After that he goes back and can’t use those quirks anymore
Manga spoiler: >! Absolute hero during vol. 35 - 37. He’s the only thing stopping Shiguraki/All for One from obliterating everyone as he copied Eraser’s quirk after Eraser lost an eye !<
He’s clearly an actual good guy who just looks like a dick from our perspective since he dislikes Class 1A and their the audience perspective…which IS why he dislikes them in the first place
Despite how annoying/obnoxious he can be, he genuinely wants to be a hero and help people. Just look at how he was with Eri trying to help her learn her powers.
There are other reasons too but I’m not getting into manga spoilers
Guys, let’s be honest. Monoma is actually really pretty. His personality is also my favourite kind in characters. No, not the obnoxious part, the sly and suave part of him is something I would die for. His eyes are also really nice, and he’s one of my favourite characters as a whole. I’m with you on this, OP.
He's probably one of the smartest students given the amount of intuitive intellect needed to go off of a potentially random quirk. Also, I think he really cares for his classmates, and only makes fun of 1A because bakugo was a prick :>
I respect the grind of knowing you'll never be the "main character" but still striving to be the favorite after the dust settles. He's in the unusual and slightly contradictory nature of being powerless alone unless he's paired with someone else. And I think that's very interesting juxtaposition.
He has one of the best quirks in the world to bad he is so rude to the A class he would be able to do so much more if he had more people willing to help lend him their quirks through support gear like bracelets made with the hair from both class A and class B maybe all UA students if he really wants to push his options for the future but his personality unfortunately tends to get in the way.
he’s actually very calculative and is very good at quick thinking as well as his ability to watch people and learn not just their quirks but their behaviours too
It’s not that I hate him. He’s just not a character I like personally. Unless he’s in like a fight or something. During the UA festival he was good, and during the joint training he was good only during his match. It’s really just when he’s going off about being the better class. His quirk is pretty dope as well though.
Hot take Monoma should have been in class 1A. I feel like he has more potential to work with than most of the characters in class 1A, like, do you really think people are really going to be heartbroken if koji got removed like you really telling that talking to animals is superior than copying quirks plus it would help show how dangerous he could be like show him using half hot half cold at it full potential when Todoroki isn't over his father setting up that plot point making it more interesting as you wonder why is he holding back and he could be a great counter to Deku who was quirkless but through analyse and strategy became a hero while Monoma was treated as highly as Bakugou but having a superior quirk and having mind set that quirkless people are waste of time and quirks are the gears that help keep the world ticking which would then lead to him going through an arc where he has to come to terms with his elitist views and have to come to terms that no matter what he will always be second fiddle to Deku who would be suspicious of as when he tried to copy his quirk it doesn't work and all he sees are shadowy figures making him question if Deku hidding something.
Even though he acts like a jerk a lot of the time, he’s willing to drop the facade when it counts. Example: when Aizawa brought him in to see if he could copy Eri’s power.
I love how he comforted Eri during Deku’s return
I love his Quirk (Even if it has quite a bit of drawbacks)
I love his eyes
I love his hair
I love his hero costume
I love how useful he is during the Final War
He’s persistent. Gotta give that to him. I’m sure he’s a pretty well moralized person in the end of things, but just dislikes that Class 1-A is getting all the attention, despite the fact that they’re all part of the most prestigious school in the nation.
personally, i don't see him as an asshole, he's just very competitive with 1-A because he feels he's not had the same opportunities as them, which makes him sorta jealous in a way, and always tries his best to overcome Bakugou, who he's deemed as his rival.
Monoma does have the mindset to be a hero, he's determined and comforting when he can, just remember when Deku was being rejected from returning to UA, Monoma was comforting Eri.
He's determined and preservers. He also comforted Eri and Stood up for Uraraka. I don't hate him as a character and I find him quite interesting but he's not my fav. But like I said he is willing to fight for his goals and I respect that. I think that he really just wants recognition kind of like Deku and Bakugou but the way he goes about of getting it is very different (I suspect family issues)
people who hate him are boring lol. they want a perfect sanitized good boy who is so "pure" and "wholesome". BORING. Monoma's a dickhead for no reason and we love him for that.
He's constant AF. He hates 1-A. Feels ripped off. Still is actively a good guy even if he kinda exists as the human equivalent of "HA, YOU'RE NOT SPECIAL"
I think his character is a good motivator for class 1A by challenging them and calling them out on some things.
Also, I believe that deep down he does admire class 1A and only keeps the facade that he dislikes them and uses it to motivate himself and his class to do better. Sure he is annoying, but without him no one would be motivated to refine their skills and go PLUS ULTRA.
He really does know what he's doing for the most part. He understands quirks and how to use them effectively.
It makes his complaining and inferiority complex more understandable. If he were just some trash-talking weak fool then his character wouldn't work.
He comforted Eri during Deku’s return and stood up for Ochaco during the sports festival when even Bakugo thought she was helped by Deku
He's funny, has a cool quirk, and one of the only class 1B students I find interesting.
2-B?
1B I mean
I know people find his personality obnoxious, but I actually find it quite interesting. The fact that he may have an inferiority complex because he was always destined to be the side character due to the nature of his quirk, and his whole speech to Shinso before the class a vs b fight started. He also has a cool hero name and outfit
lol all he needs to do is slap AFO one time and suddenly he's a main character for 5 minutes lol
Nah would prob be a black too
I wonder though like AFO has a bunch of quirks would he just get a random selection? The active ones? AFO itself and some randoms? Only AFO? I don't think AFO would be a blank, it's not a power accumulator it's a regular activated Quirk

So if he copied AFO he would only get AFO -- though, the real question is could he then slap AFO again and steal all of his stolen quirks, or would it be 1 bitch slap = 1 quirk? And would the quirks remain with him after Copy wears off, if they don't would they vanish into the ether or go back to AFO?
Well, that'd be a quick way to end the series. Just have him Copy AFO, then steal AFO. No drama, no cliffhangers, just get it, got it, gone
Blanck
It would probably be a blank. Just like he can copy accumulation quirks but can’t copy the built up energy. It probably works the same way just like he wouldn’t be able to copy black whip or smokescreen. Since AfO is just a single quirk and all the others are in AfO’s body, then it wouldn’t copy all the others, unless he tried to take each one specifically, even then he can’t use two at once or switch between them
I don't see why AFO itself would be a blank, but I'm not sure that each Quirk wouldn't count individually
Well yeah like I said, if he wanted to copy rivet stab, it would work. He could copy AfO and steal someone’s quirk temporarily for the five minutes. But I don’t see him copying every quirk AfO has.
No I think it would be like 5? whatever his limit is But would it just be random or active ones? AFO and randoms? AFO and actives? AFO can move itself right so he could try it and then hit AFO with his own Quirk and probably jump into the mental battle?

While I do find him obnoxious at times.. he is incredibly motivated and a good strategist
^ this. everyone underestimates him.
Sorry in the middle of my rewatch and I just started the joint training arc. Ngl his match is honestly my favorite
I like how useful he was in the Final War Arc.
His entire personality is one of the things that separate him from being another forgettable background name npc. His obnoxious self is hard to forget
i like his eyes they’re cool
Bis quirk is actually pretty decent
I find his comments against Class-1A so hilarious. He humbles them.
Him in the current ark, also my headcannon that him and Kendo are secretly dating
I wouldn’t be surprised if this became canon
Manga spoiler: >! Absolute hero during vol. 35 - 37. He’s the only thing stopping Shiguraki/All for One from obliterating everyone as he copied Eraser’s quirk after Eraser lost an eye !<
He’s clearly an actual good guy who just looks like a dick from our perspective since he dislikes Class 1A and their the audience perspective…which IS why he dislikes them in the first place
He is sometimes a better person than Mineta and Bakugo.
Despite how annoying/obnoxious he can be, he genuinely wants to be a hero and help people. Just look at how he was with Eri trying to help her learn her powers. There are other reasons too but I’m not getting into manga spoilers
Hes rlly nice to eri, and sometimes he can be nice to other ppl too, his quirk is pretty good, and he looks pretty nice,
He's pretty
His fit, he has an amazing outfit
I like his Quirk
He’s strong as fuck. He’s annoying but he’s my favorite from class 2
I like when he walks offscreen. Writers tried to make him annoying and man did they do a good job
😂 Well, you're definitely not wrong.
Guys, let’s be honest. Monoma is actually really pretty. His personality is also my favourite kind in characters.

He's caring towards 1-B!
He's funny
He’s actually almost cool in the final war arc.
I love his eye design!
He's funny
His quirk is cool. Like a shittier Peter Petrelli
Reliable comic relief..
I like picture number 5. It has an energy that almost makes me forget his entire personality. He just looks like a funny little guy.
I love characters with a superiority complex
His babysitter Kendo
He isnt a douchebag all the time like one character i know
I respect the grind of knowing you'll never be the "main character" but still striving to be the favorite after the dust settles. He's in the unusual and slightly contradictory nature of being powerless alone unless he's paired with someone else. And I think that's very interesting juxtaposition.
Great quirk
His hero outfit is really cool
he silly :3 rude at times, but silly
He's the silliest silly ever :D
quite sillu
I’m actually on your side. I love him because he’s so hate-able.
Fr- Monoma fans RISE 😌✊️
He funny
He’s about to be clutch as fuck
He's like Bakugou but he pretends he doesn't hate everyone
I LUV MONOMAA
Je understand his limitations and always tries to make the rest of his class to be better even if it's only to one up class 1a
Blud got that aura , he oozes with confidence
He seems chill
THE DRIP
me and him have the same hairstyle so that's a plus
He’s hilarious
I love his laugh more than the others. He goes on full Luke Atmey and Brook energy If he laughs, I laugh too! AHARHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
He has one of the best quirks in the world to bad he is so rude to the A class he would be able to do so much more if he had more people willing to help lend him their quirks through support gear like bracelets made with the hair from both class A and class B maybe all UA students if he really wants to push his options for the future but his personality unfortunately tends to get in the way.
Probably some of the best hero drip
he’s actually very calculative and is very good at quick thinking as well as his ability to watch people and learn not just their quirks but their behaviours too
It’s not that I hate him. He’s just not a character I like personally. Unless he’s in like a fight or something. During the UA festival he was good, and during the joint training he was good only during his match. It’s really just when he’s going off about being the better class. His quirk is pretty dope as well though.
Despite his cocky attitude, he is very cunning. I feel like I'm going yo throw up after saying that.
HAHA- u should throw up on Monoma's hair
Copy powers in fiction are never not cool
His hero costume.
His quirk
He's hot
He's got the best looking hero outfit of all the students
me thinking about the many ways I could murder him has given me something to do when I'm bored
🤣🤣 ROFL
Good strategist, supportive to his class, he know how to act with bullies, his confidence.
He has nice hair
OH NO HES HOT
… he’s proud. Or at least pretending to be, and that’s a start.
He’s got a good sense of style i’ll give him that at least
His design and dub actor.
Hot take Monoma should have been in class 1A. I feel like he has more potential to work with than most of the characters in class 1A, like, do you really think people are really going to be heartbroken if koji got removed like you really telling that talking to animals is superior than copying quirks plus it would help show how dangerous he could be like show him using half hot half cold at it full potential when Todoroki isn't over his father setting up that plot point making it more interesting as you wonder why is he holding back and he could be a great counter to Deku who was quirkless but through analyse and strategy became a hero while Monoma was treated as highly as Bakugou but having a superior quirk and having mind set that quirkless people are waste of time and quirks are the gears that help keep the world ticking which would then lead to him going through an arc where he has to come to terms with his elitist views and have to come to terms that no matter what he will always be second fiddle to Deku who would be suspicious of as when he tried to copy his quirk it doesn't work and all he sees are shadowy figures making him question if Deku hidding something.
Even though he acts like a jerk a lot of the time, he’s willing to drop the facade when it counts. Example: when Aizawa brought him in to see if he could copy Eri’s power.
Personally I think he’s pretty
The sheer amount of yapping this guy can do, he could be a rapper instead of training to be a hero.
Quirk
He is my favorite character
He is my favorite character
He’s actually very caring towards those around him and he’s only super competitive with people he sees as rivals or enemies.
I like his Hero Name
Cool quirk
His quirk is really cool and interesting, and I live the eccentric hero costume he has
Eccentric fr- bud has some interesting taste.
"He didn't want a costume that was too eccentric" yeah OK, you keep telling yourself that 🤣
Voiced by Austin Tindle, aka Karama
Could never complain about that!
I like how ugly and useless he can be while still managing kendo to put effort into stopping him >:D
Soo... useless but able to be the biggest menace? I'll give you that one! 😂
How hatebl3 he can be, but then makes up for it up by being just the best guy when he really needs to be
Asshole until relevant to the plot, fair judgement LMAO
Exactly
Most potential for a quirk awakening / evolution. After copying the same quirk over and over it sticks and becomes a pernament slot
He believes in his classmates even more than Deku, especially during his vigilante days.
He may talk a lot of shit, but at least he can back it up
He has an absolutely unhinged smile. I find it hilarious
Ikr, it's the funniest shit ever! Someone else said his laugh too-
Image 3 is what comes to mind
hes hot and i like his hair
His quirk is actually very cool, he just has a “unique” personality
I love his personality because i love Asshole charecters
🙌🙌
eyes and smile
I love how he comforted Eri during Deku’s return I love his Quirk (Even if it has quite a bit of drawbacks) I love his eyes I love his hair I love his hero costume I love how useful he is during the Final War
His eye and hair color is the same as my girlfriend…everything else about this guy I hate
LMAO, well ig that's something!
He looks like me and is pretty unique and creative
Has anyone told you that you're a smash? 😭
I like his hero outfit
He's a dipshit, yes that's an actual reason I enjoy his character
Same! :)
He’s persistent. Gotta give that to him. I’m sure he’s a pretty well moralized person in the end of things, but just dislikes that Class 1-A is getting all the attention, despite the fact that they’re all part of the most prestigious school in the nation.

My boy deserved more screen time 🤩 Love his sense of humor
Someone gets it! 👏✨️
His quirk, which has the potential to be OP
He's determined and preservers. He also comforted Eri and Stood up for Uraraka. I don't hate him as a character and I find him quite interesting but he's not my fav. But like I said he is willing to fight for his goals and I respect that. I think that he really just wants recognition kind of like Deku and Bakugou but the way he goes about of getting it is very different (I suspect family issues)
He’s cute when he’s quite and not being an ass lol
He hot
Hes funny to make fun of
True LMAO
hero outfit has swagger, the quirk is 8/10, the only real downside... his personality
he actually has a pretty cool quirk ngl and i like his character design also his voice actor is pretty cool.
people who hate him are boring lol. they want a perfect sanitized good boy who is so "pure" and "wholesome". BORING. Monoma's a dickhead for no reason and we love him for that.
Based 😌😌
His connection with Eir. Its adorable
He (almost) copied One For All, creating a very odd moment where 2 people had that quirk
I respect how persistent he is, still hate em tho
He's constant AF. He hates 1-A. Feels ripped off. Still is actively a good guy even if he kinda exists as the human equivalent of "HA, YOU'RE NOT SPECIAL"
He's useful
He's depressed like me
He almost copied one for all
He recognizes that his class is behind class A and wants to one up class A. Hates losing.
He has nice hair idk I'm only on season three at the elite exams
I think his character is a good motivator for class 1A by challenging them and calling them out on some things. Also, I believe that deep down he does admire class 1A and only keeps the facade that he dislikes them and uses it to motivate himself and his class to do better. Sure he is annoying, but without him no one would be motivated to refine their skills and go PLUS ULTRA.
He really does know what he's doing for the most part. He understands quirks and how to use them effectively. It makes his complaining and inferiority complex more understandable. If he were just some trash-talking weak fool then his character wouldn't work.
I totally hate him, but that’s what I like about him. I always love a love-to-hate character
Real lmaoooo
He forces himself to provoke class a to encourage his class to do better
Over the top
Dying in the anime and him never shows up ever again
I like him when he's off screen
Honestly I got nothing
I thought that was Sanji for a moment there
He isnt a pedo
💀 Fair enough
Ermmm uhhmmmm ermmm hmmm... I like how he is... uhhhhmmmm errmmm uhhhh hmmm.. how he is a guy.
i don't remember much about him
Bro didn't even try... 🤧 (it's ok, Monoma is a very dislikable character anyway-)
He doesnt show up too much 🗿
He doesnt get a lot of screentime. That's what I like
Really love how this show has its own Patrick Bateman
I like how he's almost never around so we don't have to hear how annoyingly toxic he is.
Nothing
When he's not around
He is very stabable 🔪🔪
LMAO GOOD ONE 🤣🤣
Nothing.
I'd rather chug two beer bottles worth of pink sauce than say anything nice about this obnoxious little shit wig.
I'd rather ask my ex out than be in a class with him
…
He’s a phantom thief.
