Personality

Kyotoku tried to project a stern attitude against Shota Aizawa and All Might, but in truth, he is actually a very emotional and easygoing person. He and his wife are shown to be loving and supportive of their daughter, encouraging Kyoka to pursue her dream of becoming a Hero.

Like his daughter, Kyotoku likes rock music and he is also a composer.

History

Child Kyoka with her parents
Kyotoku and Mika with a young Kyoka.

At some point, Kyotoku fell in love with Mika's musical talents, which led to them getting married and have a daughter named Kyoka. He also adopted Mika's family name, Jiro.

Kyotoku and Mika's love for music was inherited by Kyoka who started playing instruments at a young age. Believing that her parents' desire was for her to follow their footsteps and become a musician, Kyoka was apologetic when she confessed that she wanted to be a hero. However, Kyotoku and Mika dismissed her apologies and expressed their support for Kyoka to pursue her dreams.[1]

Synopsis

Hideout Raid Arc

Kyotoku is first seen confronting Shota Aizawa and All Might over their request to take Kyoka to live in U.A. High. However, Kyoka showed up and revealed that her parents had already decided in advance to let her go, which led Kyotoku to start bickering with her for ruining his concerned parent act.[2]

Abilities

Musical Talent: Kyotoku is a musical composer, meaning he has knowledge about music theory.
