Mei Hatsume

appearance

Mei is a girl with an athletic and fit body, because she tends to always test her products and has to calibrate them for their best use. She has shoulder-length curly pink hair and yellow eyes. Her eyes also feature a unique cross-shaped iris, which could be a physical characteristic of her Quirk. During the Sports Festival, Mei wears the sports uniform, but with the sleeves rolled up and some gadgets around her body, wearing steampunk goggles on her head and fingerless gloves. She is later seen wearing a plain black tank top with a vest tied around her waist, with the same glasses she wore at the Sports Festival on her head but with full gloves.

personality

Mei is an intelligent, friendly, and easygoing girl, though sometimes annoying. She loves creating gadgets, which she refers to as her "super cute babies." She also has a habit of "getting straight to the point" and is very quick to talk. Mei is very shameless when it comes to promoting her inventions, participating in the Sports Festival just to get some department to contact her for sponsorship, even going so far as to trick Tenya Iida before his match in order to better promote her inventions. Mei is unafraid of failure, seeing mistakes as opportunities to learn and do better next time, and thus does not care much if her inventions fail. Mei can be considered self-centered, as she focuses her attention on her gadgets and inventions even more than on others, but said selfishness does not seem to be a negative aspect, being instead one of her motivations to improve herself. While talking to people, Mei has a habit of approaching them awkwardly, usually causing them to shy away from her and become easily distracted, even becoming completely unaware of her surroundings. Mei can be forgetful, forgetting the names of Tenya, Izuku Midoriya, and Ochaco Uraraka when she meets them again, and seems inept at reading body language and social cues.
