break me down and build me up

Outgoing, upbeat, and straight-forward, what you see of Kirishima in the first few minutes of meeting him is often what you get. This honest sort of earnestness is what allows him to get along with most people he meets or be some spectrum of insufferable to others.

Kirishima values honesty, honor, strength, determination, and teamwork. In his world, he was a student at a prestigious school known for training professional superheroes. He carries that forward in a drive to protect and better the lives of others, especially those he considers friends. And he can find a friend in even some of the most surly individuals.

Eijiro's philosophies can make him a bit naive, especially around people underhanded enough to exploit his good nature. He's not what you'd call the brightest bulb when it comes to academics, but he's a competent fighter even without his Quirk ( superpower ) and driven to keep himself in top form. As a Trainer, he fully believes in a partnership between himself and his Pokemon.
