Her hair is short, only around chin length, and is dark purple in color with an asymmetrical fringe, and two reflections shaped like sound waves on either side of her head.

## Summary

**Kyoka Jiro** (耳郎響香 *Jirō Kyōka*) is a student at U.A. High, training to become a Pro Hero. She is known as the 'Hearing Hero, Earphone Jack'.

Kyoka has a pragmatic, unenthusiastic and rude personality which is shown a lot to those she finds irritating, in particular, her fellow classmate Denki Kaminari, who happens to be the most common target of her snarky comments. She also is notably prone to using her Quirk to physically punish people or to keep them in line, notably Denki and Minoru Mineta. Despite the fact that she comes off as cold and indifferent, Kyoka also has a much more sensitive side, being very defensive and empathetic towards her friends and others.

Kyoka has a major interest in music (rock, in particular) and owns several instruments which she is able to play to some extent.

## Arsenal

**Standard Equipment:**

* **Speakers:** Kyoka's boots are fitted with speakers, on which she can insert her plugs into and release a deafening sound. The sound is still strong enough to shatter large boulders but can be aimed in a certain direction rather than inside an object.
* **Amplifier Jack:** Devices that Kyoka can plug her jacks on, amplifying even further the sound and vibration of her heartbeats. They are worn on both her forearms.

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

**Earphone Jack:** Kyoka's Quirk gives her long, flexible earlobes, resembling earphone jacks. She is able to insert her jacks into objects and amplify her own heartbeat into the object, causing havoc inside of it. She is also able to hear quiet sounds through thick objects much easier when they are inserted. The jacks are used as whips and can extend 6 meters and have a sound radius of 12 meters. With her amplification gear, the power and range of the sound are increased.

* **Canceling:** Kyoka inserts her plugs into her boots and lets out a calm sound, effectively canceling out any other sounds in the area, such as Present Mic's Voice.
* **Heartbeat Fuzz:** Kyoka's special move, which she slams her amplifiers into the ground, and lets out a single heartbeat, which  releases a powerful soundwave, capable of shattering a large radius of ground
* **Heartbeat Surround:**Kyoka removes the straps on her wrists to her Amplifiers, allowing them to freely extend out to targets while attatched to her jacks. She then releases a large soundwave through them to incapacitate enemies and bypass conventional defenses from a closer range while she stays further away.
