Team Reservoir Dogs

Character

Four costumed robbers with color-coded names and a getaway truck, Team Reservoir Dogs operated late in the Provisional Hero License Exam Arc. They were bold enough to beat a Pro Hero in broad daylight and completely powerless the moment Overhaul decided to notice them.

Overview

The gang ran at least four deep, everyone in costume, with a pickup truck standing by for fast exits. Their announced identity was pure bravado: they told anyone listening to remember the name.

Their ambitions never reached past petty theft. They robbed local businesses for cash and nothing more, though they had nerve enough to work in daylight and muscle enough to put down a nearby professional hero. Set against Overhaul, all of that counted for nothing.

Role

The crew assembled to take the cash register out of a convenience store, and they succeeded, walking off with the register and the counter it sat on, and defeating a professional who tried to intervene. Then Kai Chisaki and the Shie Hassaikai found them, and Overhaul disassembled the entire team with his Quirk.

They turned up alive later, which was the genuine surprise. Not only were the bodies whole when recovered, every chronic health condition any of them had was gone, a demonstration of exactly what Overhaul's power could do in both directions.

Overhaul's own assessment gave them a strange sort of compliment. In his reading they had the capacity to aim considerably higher than lifting a register out of a convenience store, which said more about how thoroughly they had wasted themselves than about any real threat they posed.

Notable Members

The four known members go by colors rather than names: Yellow, Red, Blue, and Green. The scheme comes straight from the group's namesake, the film Reservoir Dogs, which follows a botched heist and its thieves, each also working under a color-coded alias.

Yellow and Red get a second life outside the manga. Both appear as enemies in the mobile game My Hero Academia: The Strongest Hero, renamed Yale and Braque respectively.

The team is defunct. Every member was imprisoned after the encounter.
