Personality

The business course shapes how Futo sees everything. He pours his talents into the commercial side of heroics, measuring figures like Izuku Midoriya by how marketable they are, an instinct on display at the U.A. Sports Festival. Underneath the calculation sits real conviction. He pushed back on Maina Furasu when she questioned filming the heroes fight during the Final War, wanting the public to understand what their victory actually took and why it happened, and he regrets not starting the work sooner given how completely Japan turned on Endeavor.
