Tsunagu Hakamada/Relationships

Sidekicks
The sidekicks who work under Tsunagu at Genius Office have a great amount of respect for their boss and seem to believe whole heartedly in his ideology about outward appearance. They often compliment him for doing and saying various things.

Gang Orca
Not much has been seen between them, but Gang Orca seems to have respect for Tsunagu's skill at reforming troubled children.

Mt. Lady
Tsunagu sees Mt. Lady as a rookie and finds her irritating. He believes she doesn't understand the difference between difficulty and importance. However, he was quick to rescue her from All For One's attack, while getting himself wounded.

Hawks
They appear familiar with each other, as Hawks visited him after the Kamino Incident. It is implied Hawks was responsible for Tsunagu's disappearance.

Katsuki Bakugo
Tsunagu was impressed by the strength and skills that Katsuki displayed during the U.A. Sports Festival, but was unhappy with the boys aggressive behavior. Tsunagu stated that he doesn't like people like Katsuki. After the Sports Festival, he sent Katsuki an offer for an internship.

Katsuki did chose Best Jeanist as a mentor for his internship, believing that studying under the then No. 4 Hero in the country would help him to become stronger. However, Best Jeanist was more interested in helping Katsuki to improve his image, rather than his skill set. Best Jeanist tried lecturing Katsuki about the importance of good behavior and altered Katsuki's appearance to make him look less intimidating by coming his hair into a neat side part and changing his Hero costume by getting rid of his mask and Grenadier Bracers and having him wear a pair of smart denim jeans in place of his usual baggy pants. This lead Katsuki to believe that he chose the wrong Hero to intern under.

Katsuki, in his stubbornness, fought back against Best Jeanist's teachings no matter how much the Hero tried to instill them. Tsunagu refused to give up, but was ultimately left frustrated when he failed to accomplish his goal of making Katsuki better.

At some point during week, Best Jeanist asked Katsuki about his Hero Name. Katsuki explained that all the names he chose were rejected due to being too violent. Best Jeanist offered to let Katsuki return to Genius Office in his 2nd year, after Katsuki has chosen a Hero Name and gotten his Provisional Hero License.

At the end of the internship, Katsuki considers his time with Best Jeanist to have been worthless, due not improving his skill. However, Katsuki has been revealed to have taken Tsunagu's words about heroes and villains being vastly different to heart as he refused to join the League of Villains.

All For One
They are enemies, as standard for heroes and villains. Tsunagu is terrified by the enormous power unleashed by All For One during their first encounter, when the villain defeated him and other heroes in a few seconds with a single but powerful attack. Still, he tries to fight back, but is easily countered and defeated by the villain. Despite this, All For One praises Tsunagu for saving his partners lives from his initial attack, and recognizes his great skill and control over his Fiber Master, a Quirk that requires great creativity and experience to utilize to its full potential.

It is later revealed the injuries Tsunagu received cost him a lung.
