Itsuka Kendo

**Itsuka Kendo** (拳 (けん) 藤 (どう) 一 (いつ) 佳 (か) , *Kendō Itsuka*?)

### **Description**

Itsuka is a dedicated student in Class 3-B at U.A., wholeheartedly training to become a pro hero.

She comes from a family with remarkable quirks. Itsuka's mother, Aihi, possesses the incredible ability to jump super high. Utilizing her quirk, Aihi serves as an emergency Response Team Member, using her exceptional jumping skills to swiftly reach and aid those in need. On the other hand, Itsuka's father, Syunsoku, possesses the power to enlarge his feet. He has found his passion as a specialized Athlete Footwear Designer, creating innovative footwear designs catered to athletes.

Among her siblings, Itsuka is the oldest. Following her in age is her sister Kaerin, who inherited their mother's quirk for jumping super high. Then, there's Itsuka's brother Seru, blessed with a quirk that grants him control over gravity in his feet. Continuing down the line is her sister Keneken, whose quirk allows her to rapidly enlarge her legs, granting her immense strength and size. Lastly, the youngest of the siblings is Bekemu, who shares Seru's gravity-controlling quirk.

Itsuka herself is a spirited and considerate individual. She carries a strong sense of thoughtfulness towards others and isn't afraid to speak up when she believes her classmates are in the wrong. As a testament to her assertiveness, she once swiftly intervened by karate chopping Neito Monoma on the back of his neck, preventing him from antagonizing Class 3-A and the rest of Class 3-B. Itsuka's actions demonstrate her commitment to maintaining harmony and justice within her school community.

Itsuka is transgender, but she has not publicly come out, with most people assuming she is a cis-woman. However, her close-knit classmates in Class 3-B are aware of her identity, as well as her teacher Sekijiro Kan, who has been incredibly supportive. Additionally, word has spread to most of Class 3-A about Itsuka's gender identity, and they have shown acceptance and understanding.

Despite the support she receives, Itsuka experiences moments of embarrassment and sadness regarding how others perceive her. During her internship with Uwabami, she felt self-conscious when people referred to her in masculine terms, as she fears that it may lead them to discover her secret. It saddens her when others perceive her as masculine, as she desires to be seen as feminine but also wishes to maintain her tough appearance.

As Itsuka continues her personal journey and transitions, she finds comfort in the understanding and acceptance she receives from her peers and loved ones. She strives to navigate the delicate balance between her true self and the image she presents to the world, aspiring to be perceived as the strong and feminine hero she envisions.
