Ikajiro Takobe

Nobody recorded what he looked like before the Villain Factory got hold of him. As a Next-Level Villain he was enormous, heavily muscled and jet-black all over. His Quirk gave him six arms with rows of suckers running along every limb, and he kept two more large tentacles tucked inside his torso to whip out unexpectedly.

His scalp was bare, and the region above his mouth carried almost nothing recognizable as a face, only a pair of lines tracking upward from where his lips split toward the brow. A set of very tiny eyes hides inside those lines.

Once the Trigger wore off and he came around, the build stayed but the scale dropped: less muscle, less height though still a big man, and a lighter skin tone. He dresses now, and off the clock he favors foam clogs, shorts, a tank top and durags in an assortment of colors.

On first appearance the Trigger in him had stripped out any judgment, leaving something that lashed at anything nearby without distinction or mercy, as ready to attack defenseless girls as to take on heroes.

Clean of the drug, he presents as courteous and thoughtful, apologizing for the whole stretch he spent as a Next-Level Villain. He is sensitive, and he loves cats.

Octopus (Squid) is his Mutant-type Quirk, giving him cephalopod attributes and the shape of a humanoid octopus. Six arms come standard, plus two more held in reserve inside his torso, which he sprouts on demand. The bio-engineering that made him a Next-Level Villain scaled him up considerably.

That conversion also handed him augmented strength and speed. The strength was enough to put Pro Hero Eraser Head out of the fight in short order, and in the anime the asphalt cracks under his feet as he simply walks. His durability held against Koichi Haimawari, Shota Aizawa, an enhanced Kirihito Kamachi and the Trigger-boosted Hotta brothers all at once, and he took no damage from any of them; Kirihito's scythes could not open his skin.

His super move, Eight-Arm Rush, buries an opponent under a flurry of strikes from all eight arms.
