He is one of the few people who knew about All Might's true form. After it is revealed publicly and crime begins to increase, Sekijiro regrets not being able to do more for All Might while he was acting as the Symbol of Peace. He also showed concern for Shota Aizawa in their televised meeting with the media, showing that he cares for his fellow teachers as well and will do what he can to help them, even if he does not interact with them often.When danger strikes, he is quick to react, using his Quirk effectively as a method of entrapping an enemy.

Abilities
Enhanced Strength: Sekijiro is much stronger than the average human. He manages to lift Dabi's clone with a single hand and push it against a wall with enough power to crack it.

Enhanced Speed: Sekijiro is incredibly fast. He is able to react quick enough to avoid and push the students away from Dabi's surprise attack and to counterattack against Dabi and pin him against the wall in less than three seconds.

Quirk
Blood Control (操血): After ejecting a certain quantity of blood from the back of his glove, Sekijiro can freely manipulate it. With his Quirk he manages to restrain a clone of Dabi by pinning it to the wall and covering it with the blood, ending the fight in less than three seconds. When he no longer needs it, Sekijiro can reabsorb his blood through the same glove.

Eraserhead
They are both fellow pro heroes and homeroom teachers of the Department of Heroes for their respective classes. As Sekijiro views Class 1-A as his rivals, this rivalry is extended toward Aizawa, with Sekijiro acting out competitively towards him. Despite this rivalry, Sekijiro knows when to cooperate with Aizawa during serious moments. This was shown in their meeting with the media where he was worried that Aizawa would lose his temper though was surprised when the latter kept calm and agreed with the heckling.
