Third-year student in Class 3-A at U.A. High School and part of The Big 3 (the strongest three hero students in all of Japan).
Tamaki is extremely shy, aloof, depressed, "intimidating", and introverted, especially around big audiences. He gets nervous very easily when talking to other people. If his anxiety gets the best of him, Tamaki will often face away and lean into a wall to hide his face from others. While his physical abilities and Quirk are outstanding, Tamaki is socially awkward and lacks confidence in his powers. Despite his timid heart, Tamaki can show flashes of bravery. Even though he's always been a shy and reserved boy, Tamaki was able to hone his skills and climb the ranks into one of U.A.'s Big 3. Mirio Togata is a big inspiration for Tamaki.
Tamaki's Quirk Manifest grants him the ability to manifest the physical characteristics of anything he's eaten; for example, if he eats takoyaki, he can transform his fingers into octopus tentacles. Additionally, anything Tamaki manifests is significantly stronger than normal. The more of a substance Tamaki eats, the stronger his manifestation will be. He can only manifest the traits of substances still in his system and loses access to those traits once the substance is fully digested. He must resupply his Quirk daily and decide what foods to eat beforehand.
