Kosei, like the rest of class 1-B is part of a Joint Training with class 1-A. The rules are that one team has to capture the other team and imprison them. During the Joint Training, he is paired with [[Ibara Shiozaki]], [[Jurota Shishida]] and [[Hiryu Rin]]. His opponents are [[Tsuyu Asui]], [[Kirishima Eijirou]], [[Koji Koda]], [[Kaminari Denki]] and [[Shinsou Hitoshi]]. After Jurota incapacitates Tsuyu and Kirishima, Kosei uses his new special move, Air Prison, to trap Koji, rendering him completely defenceless. Kosei then climbs on Jurota's back and tells him to attack the rest. However it is shown that it was not Kosei speaking, it is Shinsou's new gadget, the [[Artificial Vocal Cords]], that allows him to sound like anyone he wants. Shinso then tries to use his [[Capturing Weapon]] on Kosei and Jurota but Kosei manages to trap Shinso with his airprison in time. Kosei then snaps Jurota out of Shinso's [[Brainwashing|spell]] with a slap to the head and tells him to attack, while pondering about Shinso's quirk. Next Kaminari goes for an attack on the duo. Jurota answers by smacking Kaminari into a wall but got shocked by his [[Electrification|quirk]] but Kosei jumped off him in time to avoid it. However, Kosei is caught by Tsuyu in midair and sent straight to their jail. While in his prison cell, Kosei is excitedly thinking about how her he was almost entirely wrapped up in Tsuyu's tongue.

Kosei Tsuburaba ( (つぶら) () (こう) (せい) Tsuburaba Kōsei?), is a student in Class 1-B at U.A. High School, training to become a Pro Hero.

Appearance

Kosei is a young man with short brown hair, spiked up at odd angles on his head. His eyes are oval-shaped, and as are his large pupils.

His hero costume consists of a simple, light-colored jacket, with matching pants, a dark shirt underneath, and he wears large boots with cylindrical shapes on the soles.

Personality

Kosei is a very enthusiastic and competitive individual who tries to hold himself to a high standard as he makes an effort to avoid descending to the level of his rivals.

However, Kosei was not above taunting Katsuki Bakugo himself after stopping the Class 1-A student with his Quirk. Similarly to Neito Monoma, Kosei has no problem settling for less rather than aiming for the top.[1]

Kosei's lecherous side

Kosei's debauched tendencies

He seems to have a subtle yet lecherous side of him, as shown when he got captured and he was mostly thinking about how Tsuyu Asui's tongue was wrapped around him.

Abilities

Quirk

Solid Air ( (くう) () (ぎょう) () Kūkigyōko?): Kosei's Quirk allows him to solidify any air he breathes out, allowing him to create walls and/or platforms.

The size of the wall or platform depends on his lung capacity. It seems that these walls and platforms are not very strong, as Katsuki is able to break a wall as if it were made out of glass using only his bare fist, and his fist did not look injured in the slightest, this weakness is overcome after much training.

The solidified air is invisible.

Super Moves

  • Air Prison (エアプリズン Ea Purizun?): Kosei refined his Quirk since the Forest Training Camp Arc, and is able to send out squares of air, and shape them into a box to imprison his opponent. The fact that Koji Koda was imprisoned there for a while and Jurota Shishida had problems containing Koji's strength shows that these air prisons are much more durable than solid air he has shown previously. He displays this ability in the first round of the Class 1-A vs Class 1-B training event.
