Minoru Mineta is a short teenage boy with a large, round head and puffy cheeks. His small, stubby nose points slightly upward, and his oval-shaped eyes with big black pupils sit beneath notably thin eyebrows. He has short dark purple hair with four large ball-shaped clumps resembling a mohawk. At U.A., he wears the standard male uniform modified for his stature. Minoru is timid but notoriously perverted, frequently trailing off into lewd thoughts even in unrelated situations. His determination to peep at the girls often leads to painful results or restraint. Unashamed of his traits, he openly admits his motivations to become a hero for popularity and access to women.
