Yowashi Chikaranashi signed up for Tiger's boot camp planning to turn villain the moment he got strong. He quit the camp, collapsed, got his glasses back, looked down at his own arms, and decided that bodybuilding sounded better after all.
Square glasses and light hair down to his shoulders sit on a grown man who spent the camp in black shorts and a black tank top.
He arrived alarmingly thin. By the end of the training he had put on real muscle, arms defined and torso filled out.
He bends to whatever is directly in front of him. The camp got hard and he folded quickly; one look at his own new physique and the villain plan evaporated on the spot.
Greed sits underneath, paired with an indifference to whatever happens to anyone he has decided mistreated him. The villain fantasy was purely self-serving, daydreaming about what power would buy him, and it was fed by a severe inferiority complex built on the conviction that he had failed at life and could not accomplish anything.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Hearing that Tiger was running a training camp for forty civilians, he applied with an invented tale about chasing a bodybuilding career. The real intention was to get strong enough to turn villain.
He was accepted, and the first day gutted him. The program was purely physical, with none of the boost from Pliabody he had assumed would be handed to him, but he stayed, scraping through the weight training on Deku's encouragement. Survival training in the woods came next. Convinced he was the weakest man there, he took brief motivation from Deku's personalized notes, then gave up once it became clear he lacked the stamina for it. He tried to run and the hero students assisting Tiger herded him back, much to his dismay.
Three days in the forest followed. Other participants dropped out one by one, his glasses went missing somewhere along the way, and eventually exhaustion put him on the ground and he formally quit, which disappointed the heroes watching. On his way out, Tiger handed the glasses back, and only then could Yowashi see the muscle he had built. Remotivated, he remembered the plan that had brought him there, discarded it, and decided he might aim for bodybuilding instead.
Yowashi Chikaranashi is a civilian who joined Tiger's training camp in My Hero Academia: Team-Up Missions, secretly planning to use the strength he gained to become a villain. By the end of the program he abandoned that plan and decided to pursue bodybuilding instead.
Yowashi Chikaranashi told Tiger he wanted to become a bodybuilder, but his real goal was to get strong enough to turn villain. He was driven by greed and a severe inferiority complex over feeling like a failure.
Yowashi Chikaranashi struggled from the first day, since the camp involved no Quirk boost from Pliabody as he had assumed. He nearly quit multiple times, tried to flee the survival training in the forest, and eventually collapsed from exhaustion and formally dropped out.
After Yowashi Chikaranashi quit Tiger's camp, Tiger returned the glasses he had lost during training. Seeing the real muscle he had built for the first time, he abandoned his villain plan and decided bodybuilding suited him better.
Yowashi Chikaranashi wears square glasses and has light hair down to his shoulders. He arrived at the training camp alarmingly thin but left with defined arms and a filled out torso.
