Backdraft (バックドラフト, Bakkudorafuto^?) is a Pro Hero. He works at the Musutafu Fire Department.

Appearance

Backdraft is dressed like a firefighter, sporting a long yellow jacket with high-visibility lines running down the centre, along his sleeve cuffs, hem, and along his high collar, as well as a red fireman hat. A thin cannon is strapped to his left shoulder, attached to the red water tank he wears on his back, and he wears a white mask with a single orange bead embedded into the centre, which could possibly be his eye. He has taps for hands with circular wrist-guards just behind their openings, red valves over the top, and a pair of similar knee-pads on his legs, as well as yellow sneakers on his feet.
