ྀི　𓈒⠀⠀ ˙⠀⠀ ₊ ⠀⠀⠀𓈒⠀⠀ ˙⠀⠀ ₊　　 ◝ུ༢

Tamaki is extremely shy, distant, depressed and introverted, especially in public. He gets nervous very easily when talking to other people. If his anxiety gets the best of him, Tamaki will often walk away and lean against a wall to hide his face from others. This also happens when Tamaki has a bad feeling or feels insulted. Tamaki doesn't believe anyone should undermine someone else's hard work. He noticed that Class 1-A couldn't recognize the amount of work Mirio Togata put into perfecting his own power and even showed his face to comment on it.[4] He is also quick to point out when others are too optimistic in their pessimistic opinion and fails to recognize his own achievements. His pessimism is a direct contrast to the optimism of his teacher, Fat Gum. Even after being complimented by Fat Gum, Tamaki often receives praise from his mentor as well as ridicule.[5] While his physical abilities and Quirk are exceptional, Tamaki is very socially awkward and lacks confidence in his own powers and abilities, as shown when he belittles himself for manifesting extra wings when catching some Villains. He apparently feels overwhelmed by the pressure to be perfect and this has damaged his self-esteem, pushing himself to the limit in order to live up to the expectations set by Fat Gum, Mirio, and others who believe in him. Despite his timid heart, Tamaki is fully capable of showing flashes of bravery and takes his job as a Hero and the responsibilities that come with it seriously. Even though he has been shy and reserved since he was a child, Tamaki was able to hone his skills and rise into one of U.A.'s Big Three. Mirio is a great inspiration to Tamaki and their cooperation throughout their lives has led Tamaki to establish your own set of stern beliefs that you will defend and vocalize. Mirio often gives Tamaki the inspiration to act even when he is feeling anxious.
