Itsuka Kendo is a major character in the anime series, My Hero Academia. She is a student in U.A. High School and the representative of Class 1-B, often referred as "The Big Sister of Class 1B". She is the friendly rival of Momo Yaoyorozu.
She is voiced by Saki Ogasawara in the Japanese version, and by Jad Saxton in the English version.
Appearance[]
Itsuka is medium-height with medium-length ginger hair and teal eyes, with notably thick upper eyelashes and visible lower ones. She usually wears her hair in a ponytail on the left side and has three clumps of hair sticking up from her head. Her bangs are split so one is on the right, middle, and left sides of her face.
Itsuka's hero costume is a teal knee-length qipao, and she wears a double-breasted black corset over it. Underneath this, she wears short black sports pants and a small brown belt with a gold buckle over her thigh. Another belt is worn low on her hips and has a satchel attached to the back. A thin black domino mask is worn around her eyes. Her shoes are grey-navy with white heels and trim. The vamps in her boots are filled with white slips.
Her winter hero costume has a minor change being that she switches her qipao out for one with shoulder-length sleeves.
Personality[]
Itsuka is a very high-spirited, thoughtful and mature girl that does her best to look out for others. She's not one to hesitate to be critical of others when she thinks what they're doing is wrong, like when she repeatedly karate chops Monoma on his neck and disciplines him whenever he excessively antagonizes or threatens the Students of Class 1-A (as well as when Monoma gets carried away with baiting them).
Due to her friendliness, she has the natural ability to bring her Class 1-B together, and she is one of the few of them who shows no ill-will towards Class 1-A, to the extent she even shows sympathy and empathy to them on certain occasions despite not being particularly close with any of them.
She is also very analytical and perceptive in combat, which allows her to hold her own against some pretty powerful villains like Mustard.
Powers and Abilities[]
Her quirk, Big Fist, allows her to enlarge both of her hands to a gigantic size, giving her strength beyond that of an average human. By enlarging her hands, she can easily carry (and possibly rescue) people Her magnified strength would also prove formidable in combat, as shown when she was able to crush any tungsten shield conjured by Momo Yaoyorozu. Gripping strength is proportionally increased to the size of her hands.
Super Moves[]
Double Jumbo Fist: With both her hands at normal size, Itsuka strikes her enemy with them, activating her Quirk just before impact to maximize damage.
