'''Overall Abilities''': Hiryu has shown to be a very competent combatant, with a great handle on the applications of his Quirk. Thanks to versatile nature of his Scales Quirk, Hiryu excels in both close and long range combat, effectively switching between hand-to-hand combat, and shooting off his scales when it’s most convenient to him. If a target is not close enough for him to engage in close quarters combat, Hiryu can simply fire off scales in an attempt to hit his desired target.
===[[U.A. Sports Festival Arc]]===
 
All of [[Class 1-B]] participates in the [[Obstacle Race]] along with rest of the 1st-year students. When [[Shoto Todoroki]] causes one of the Villain Robots to collapse, Hiryu suggests to the participants to team up temporarily to move the robots out of the way. He is revealed to be one of the few students who doesn't agree with Neito Monoma's plan to stay in low ranks to overthrow [[Class 1-A]]. {{Ref|ep = 16}}

During the [[Joint Training Battle]], Hiryu demonstrated amazing accuracy when it comes to the projectile application of his Quirk, as he was able to hit one of [[Denki Kaminari|Denki Kaminari's]] small pointers that was attached to an [[Jurota Shishida]] without injuring the latter, and from a reasonable distance. Hiryu also possess sharp reflexes, evidenced when he had detected a [[Camouflage|camouflaged]] [[Tsuyu Asui]], and quickly enveloped himself in scales in order to defend against her incoming attack. Unfortunately, due to the Rainy Season Hero's incredible leg strength, coupled with the insufficient durability of his scale armor, Hiryu was sent flying into the distance, crashing into Jurota (who was being subdued by [[Hitoshi Shinso]]), resulting in Hiryu's team losing the match.
After the previous event, he teams up with fellow classmate [[Jurota Shishida]] in the [[Cavalry Battle]]. He attempts to snatch Team Midoriya's headband like many other competitors but Team Todoroki ends up freezing multiple rival teams, including his. Hiryu and [[Itsuka Kendo]] watch in despair as Shoto makes off with their stolen headbands. As the event ends, Hiryu is unable to continue to the tournament finals.{{Ref|ep = 18}}

'''Tactical Intellect''': Hiryu has shown to have a strategic mind. After [[Shoto Todoroki]] turned various [[Villain Bots]] into wreckage that blocked the path of various [[U.A.

During [[Joint Training Battle/Round One|round one of the Joint Training Battle]], Hiryu deduced his team was being tracked by the opposing team, but didn't realize it was due to one of Denki's pointers until he saw one attached to Jurota.

Afterward, Itsuka asks [[Shota Aizawa]] if can they observe everyone, he explains that is the reason [[The Pussycats]] are around.{{Ref|chap = 72}} Hiryu notes that seeing their rivals push themselves to their limits is quite terrifying in terms of overwork.

Appearance

Hiryu has lightly tanned skin and black hair, reaching roughly down to his shoulders, which he wears in a low braid. His eyes are shaped like those of a reptile, and his irises are notably small.

His hero costume consists of light colored knee high boots, a dark vest with white clouds across it and a collar that covers his chin. He has a belt tied around his waist with pouches on the side and he also wears large gloves and a visor on his head. His outfit appears similar to a Jiangshi, his visor appears similar to the talismans commonly seen pasted on their forehead.

Personality

Hiryu is willing to work with others as shown during the obstacle course when he suggested for everyone to use their Quirks together in order to clear the way through the fallen 0-point robots. It's notable that Hiryu possesses a serious demeanor when it comes to playing out his abilities into action. He is rather diligent in terms of academic abilities and Quirk functions as well.[2]

Abilities

Overall Abilities: Hiryu has shown to be a very competent combatant, with a great handle on the applications of his Quirk. Thanks to versatile nature of his Scales Quirk, Hiryu excels in both close and long range combat, effectively switching between hand-to-hand combat, and shooting off his scales when it’s most convenient to him. If a target is not close enough for him to engage in close quarters combat, Hiryu can simply fire off scales in an attempt to hit his desired target.

During the Joint Training Battle, Hiryu demonstrated amazing accuracy when it comes to the projectile application of his Quirk, as he was able to hit one of Denki Kaminari's small pointers that was attached to an Jurota Shishida without injuring the latter, and from a reasonable distance. Hiryu also possess sharp reflexes, evidenced when he had detected a camouflaged Tsuyu Asui, and quickly enveloped himself in scales in order to defend against her incoming attack. Unfortunately, due to the Rainy Season Hero's incredible leg strength, coupled with the insufficient durability of his scale armor, Hiryu was sent flying into the distance, crashing into Jurota (who was being subdued by Hitoshi Shinso), resulting in Hiryu's team losing the match.

Tactical Intellect: Hiryu has shown to have a strategic mind. After Shoto Todoroki turned various Villain Bots into wreckage that blocked the path of various U.A. Sports Festival participants, Hiryu quickly suggested that different contenders use their Quirks to clear a path so they can get through the obstacle course portion of the Sports Festival. During round one of the Joint Training Battle, Hiryu deduced his team was being tracked by the opposing team, but didn't realize it was due to one of Denki's pointers until he saw one attached to Jurota.
