* Both of them take up delinquent students, whom they see brimming with potential (Itadori and Ichigo), and said students actually had an inner powered-background they had no idea about, that made them have stunning power in the first place regarding the enemies they face, both monsters and "human" characters alike.
* Said students also have monsters with immeasurable power and a massive threat to society/the world sealed within them (Sukuna and White).

Mario

## Mario (Super Mario Bros)

**Mario** is a character created by the Japanese video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. He is the title character of the *Mario* franchise and the mascot of the Japanese video game company Nintendo. Mario is an Italian plumber who resides in the Mushroom Kingdom with his younger twin brother, Luigi. Their adventures generally centre on rescuing Princess Peach from the villain Bowser while using power-ups that give them different abilities.

Mario first appeared as the player character of *Donkey Kong* (1981), a platform game. Miyamoto wanted to use Popeye as the protagonist, but when he could not gain the licensing rights, he created Mario instead. The graphical limitations of arcade hardware influenced Mario's design, such as his large nose, mustache, and overalls. Miyamoto expected the character to be unpopular and planned to use him for cameo appearances; originally called "Mr. Video" and "Jumpman", he was renamed Mario after Nintendo of America's landlord Mario Segale. After *Donkey Kong*, Mario starred in *Mario Bros.* (1983). Its 1985 Nintendo Entertainment System sequel, *Super Mario Bros.*, began the successful *Super Mario* series. Charles Martinet voiced Mario from 1991 to 2023, when he was succeeded by Kevin Afghani.

After *Super Mario Bros.*, Mario began to branch off to different genres and has appeared in over 200 video games since his creation. These include puzzle games such as *Dr. Mario*, role-playing games such as *Paper Mario* and *Mario & Luigi*, and sports games such as *Mario Kart* and *Mario Tennis*. He has appeared in other Nintendo properties, such as in the *Super Smash Bros.* series of crossover fighting games. Mario has also appeared in various animations, including three series produced by DIC Entertainment (voiced by Lou Albano and later Walker Boone). He was portrayed by Bob Hoskins in the live-action *Super Mario Bros.* film in 1993, and voiced by Chris Pratt in *The Super Mario Bros. Movie* in 2023.

An established pop culture icon, Mario is widely considered the most famous video game character in history. He has appeared in a variety of merchandise, such as clothing and collectible items, and people and places have been nicknamed after him. He has also inspired a considerable amount of unofficial media. With more than 800 million units sold worldwide, the *Mario* franchise is the bestselling video game franchise of all time.

His Quirk is Explosion (爆破), which allows him to make explosions from his hands by detonating the nitroglycerin-like substance he sweats; throughout the series, he learns various different ways to apply this. Overuse of the Quirk can potentially break his forearms.

As a child, Kacchan often bullied his childhood best friend, the Quirkless Izuku Midoriya. However, after they both entered U.A. High School and Katsuki lost to Izuku in training, he began to see him differently. After Katsuki is kidnapped by the League of Villains, All Might loses his Quirk in the process of saving him, which made him blame himself for All Might's retirement, though All Might later reassures him it was not his fault. Katsuki later becomes one of the only people who knows the true nature of Izuku's Quirk as Izuku trust him with this secret and so did All Might.

Katsuki has received positive reviews from critics, with many praising his character development throughout the series and his relationship with Izuku. The voice performances in both Japanese and English dub also received praise. The character has also consistently ranked in the series' popularity polls, most commonly he placed first.

Magneto

## Magneto (Marvel Comics)

**Magneto** (/mæɡˈniːtoʊ/; birth name: **Max Eisenhardt**; alias: **Erik Lehnsherr** and **Magnus**) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with the X-Men. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in *The X-Men* #1 (cover-dated September 1963) as an adversary of the X-Men.

The character is a powerful mutant, one of a fictional subspecies of humanity born with superhuman abilities, who has the ability to generate and control magnetic fields. Magneto regards mutants as evolutionarily superior to humans and rejects the possibility of peaceful human-mutant coexistence; he initially aimed to conquer the world to enable mutants, whom he refers to as *Homo superior*, to replace humans as the dominant species. Writers have since fleshed out his origins and motivations, revealing him to be a Holocaust survivor whose extreme methods and cynical philosophy derive from his determination to protect mutants from suffering a similar fate at the hands of a world that fears and persecutes them. He is a friend of Professor X, the leader of the X-Men, but their different philosophies cause a rift in their friendship at times. Magneto's role in comics has progressed from supervillain to antihero to superhero, having served as an occasional ally and member of the X-Men, even leading the New Mutants for a time as headmaster of the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters.

Writer Chris Claremont, who originated Magneto's backstory, modeled the character on then-Israeli opposition leader Menachem Begin, with later commentators comparing the character with the American civil rights leader Malcolm X and Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane. Magneto opposes the pacifist attitude of Professor X and pushes for a more aggressive approach to achieving civil rights for mutants.

Ian McKellen has portrayed Magneto in various films since X-Men in 2000, while Michael Fassbender has portrayed a younger version of the character in the prequel films since *X-Men: First Class* in 2011. Both actors portrayed their respective incarnations in *X-Men: Days of Future Past*.

Ryu

## Ryu (Street Fighter)

**Ryu** (Japanese: リュウ, Hepburn: *Ryū*) is a fictional character and the protagonist of Capcom's *Street Fighter* series. Having premiered in the first *Street Fighter* in 1987, Ryu appears as the game's lead character alongside his best friend and friendly rival Ken Masters. Other games in the series show Ryu to be highly focused on his training, aiming to become the strongest he can. Unable to control his dark nature, Ryu developed two alter egos: **Evil Ryu** (殺意の波動に目覚めたリュウ, *Satsui no Hadō ni Mezameta Ryū*, lit. "Ryu with the surge of murderous intent awakened", abbreviated *Satsui Ryu* in *Street Fighter Alpha 3*), and **Kage-naru mono** (影ナル者, lit. Shadowed One) or simply Kage (影, lit. Shadow).

He was created by Takashi Nishiyama. Nishiyama's inspiration was the martial artist Mas Oyama. For his second appearance, Ryu's design changed from that of a young fighter to a skilled Karate practitioner. However, because of issues in the making of *Street Fighter II* he possessed a major weakness within the cast. For the next titles, Ryu's fighting style was modified, so he had different skills with Evil Ryu and Kage possessing more diverse moves. Multiple actors have voiced him both in Japanese and in English.

One of the most iconic characters in the fighting game genre and video games as a whole, Ryu has been the protagonist of the *Street Fighter* series since the first game and has appeared as a playable character in several crossover games involving the franchise, including the *Marvel vs. Capcom* series, *Project X Zone* and the *Super Smash Bros.* series. He has also appeared in manga and anime adaptations, as well as the 1994 live-action film. Despite his popularity, his evil persona has been criticized for retaining most of his regular form's moves.

Jolyne Cujoh

**Jolyne Cujoh** (Japanese: 空条 徐倫, Hepburn: *Kūjō Jorīn*) is a fictional character in the Japanese manga series *JoJo's Bizarre Adventure*, written and illustrated by Hirohiko Araki. The main protagonist of the series' sixth story arc, *Stone Ocean*, Jolyne is falsely accused of murder by Dio's most loyal friend, Enrico Pucci, and sentenced to 15 years in prison. Eventually, from a pendant given to her by her father, Jotaro Kujo, she acquires her Stand, Stone Free (ストーン・フリー, *Sutōn Furī*), which gives her the ability to unravel her body into string. Originally having a strained relationship with him due to his long absence from the majority of her life, she vows to stay in prison in order to save her father and recruits a group of Stand users to help her in her quest to save Jotaro and defeat Pucci.

Araki created Jolyne as he felt that it is necessary of the series to have a female protagonist despite the editorial backlash and believes that the change of perspective towards female characters gives him a chance to show that they are able to fight. Jolyne was initially voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro in *JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle* and *JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven* before being cast in the anime adaptation by Fairouz Ai in Japanese onwards and Kira Buckland in English. Reception of Jolyne has been positive, with many critics praising her complex characterization and development from being a flawed person to becoming a strong-willed character.

Ever since then, his goal has been to conquer the sun and become truly immortal, which he intends to accomplish through one of two ways: by finding the Blue Spider Lily or creating more demons with his blood in the hopes that one of them will eventually become immune to sunlight.

In his relentless pursuit of this ambition, Muzan became the sworn enemy of the Demon Slayer Corps and the arch-nemesis of both Tanjiro and Nezuko Kamado. He was also the one responsible for massacring most of the Kamado family and transforming Nezuko into a demon, which led Tanjiro to join the Demon Slayer Corps in order to turn his sister human again and get revenge on Muzan for murdering his family, thus setting the events of the series in motion.

* Both of their backstories involved the tragic departure of a loved one at a young age (Zoro's childhood friendly rival Kuina died unexpectedly, and Erza's childhood friend Jellal exiled her after being corrupted by Possession Magic), subsequently leading them to wander aimlessly until finding a new home and family with a group of fellow adventurers (the Straw Hat Pirates and the Fairy Tail Guild, respectively).

* Both were the strongest, most beloved and most popular superheroes on Earth and were overtly allied with their world's analogues of the Justice League of America (The Guardians of the Globe and The Seven, respectively), but secretly despised humans due to believing their own race was superior (Viltrumites and Supes, respectively), and committed many atrocities hidden to the public, but eventually dropped their façade and massacred many humans.
* Despite this however, both became attracted to a human woman (Debbie Grayson and Becca Butcher, respectively) and had a half-human child with them (Mark Grayson and Ryan Butcher, respectively), who they initially believed did not inherit their powers, but trained them abusively when they found out they did.
* Despite their individual power, both served under a major antagonistic faction (The Viltrumite Empire and Vought International, respectively) but eventually rebelled against them and became their figureheads (Omni-Man was crowned the ruler of the Viltrumite Empire after battling Thragg, and Homelander became the de facto head of Vought after forcing Stan Edgar to stand down).
* Both have also constantly found themselves at odds with former government agents (Cecil Steadman and Billy Butcher, respectively) who would develop contingency plans and rally troops against them.
* Later on, they would go down opposite paths (Omni-Man realized the errors of his ways and became a better person, while Homelander became an even worse person as time went on) but would both ultimately meet their end at the hands of a member of their own race whom they were initially allied with (Thragg and Black Noir, respectively).
* Both also gained popularity around similar times due to starring in critically acclaimed Amazon Prime Video series known for their extremely violent and gory takes on the superhero genre (Invincible and The Boys, respectively).
* This matchup has been officially acknowledged several times: Invincible creators, Robert Kirkman, Ryan Ottley, and Cory Walker all agree that Omni-Man would win. Kirkman has even discussed the matchup with The Boys producers, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, who said Omni-Man would "easily trash" Homelander.

The series is a satirical depiction of American life, epitomized by the Simpson family, which consists of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. Set in the fictional town of Springfield, it caricatures society, Western culture, television, and the human condition.

The family was conceived by Groening shortly before a solicitation for a series of animated shorts with producer James L. Brooks. He created a dysfunctional family and named the characters after his own family members, substituting Bart for his own name; he thought Simpson was a funny name in that it sounded similar to "simpleton". The shorts became a part of *The Tracey Ullman Show* on April 19, 1987. After three seasons, the sketch was developed into a half-hour prime time show and became Fox's first series to land in the Top 30 ratings in a season (1989–1990).

After *Rocko* was cancelled in 1996, he began developing *SpongeBob SquarePants* into a television series that same year; and in 1997, a seven-minute pilot was pitched to Nickelodeon.

Yakuza

***Like a Dragon***, formerly known in English-language regions as ***Yakuza***, is a Japanese video game franchise by Sega. The franchise incorporates elements of the action-adventure, beat 'em up, and role-playing genres.

The storyline premise for each franchise installment is typically a crime drama, with plot lines inspired by yakuza films and pre-millennial Japanese crime dramas. The most frequently featured protagonist is Kazuma Kiryu, a reformed yakuza associated with the Kanto-based Tojo Clan. While Kiryu often finds himself working with the leaders of the Tojo Clan to thwart conspiracies aimed against them, the primary theme of the series is his desire to leave the yakuza for good and start over by raising orphans and trying to assimilate into civilian life. The gameplay of *Yakuza / Like a Dragon* has the player controlling Kiryu (or another character, depending on the title) in an open world where he can fight random groups of punks and gangsters, take on side missions and activities to earn experience and money, learn new moves from non-player characters (NPCs), eat and drink at various restaurants, visit hostess and cabaret clubs, craft items, and engage in a variety of mini games such as golfing, bowling, batting cages, video arcades, karaoke, and gambling games including poker, blackjack, Cee-lo, and *Koi-Koi*.

The franchise has become a commercial and critical success, and as of 2023, Sega has reported that the video game series has sold a combined total of 21.3 million units in physical and digital sales since its debut in 2005. Strong sales of the games in its original Japanese market has led to the franchise's expansion to other media, including film adaptations.
