Bee☆Pop

.

Bee☆Pop (BEE☆ポップ) is a villain in the spin-off My Hero Academia: Vigilantes. With her Queen Bee Quirk, she possessed Kazuho Haneyama.

Appearance
Bee☆Pop's true identity is the Queen Bee, where she looks like a queen bee with a grotesquely bloated abdomen.

While possessing Kazuho Haneyama, Bee☆Pop's costume is a modification of Kazuho Haneyama's vigilante costume. It is designed to be more villainous and bee-themed: the costume is more revealing, she loses the mini-skirt and instead wears a belt with three red heart-shaped buckles, she drops her black mask, the devil wings are swapped for bee wings, and her tight stocking knee boots are replaced with looser knee boots. She also now wears thick black eye shadow, lipstick, and nail polish, and her hair is swept over her left eye. The costume is covered with honey-colored lines and stripes. She has canisters on the sides of her belt, likely containing the drug Trigger.

While on Trigger, Bee☆Pop's skin is darkened, and her tongue is blackened. Her hair is also slightly pointier.

Personality
Bee☆Pop's personality is a fusion of Kazuho Haneyama's and the swarm of parasitic bees. She is usually in a crazed state caused by Kazuho's apparent failure at getting Koichi Haimawari to like her. This crazed state causes her to confuse strong feelings of love and hate, and she is shown enjoying causing chaos and destruction.

Her internal monologues show that she lost all hope on getting a happy future with Koichi, and, as a her final wish, she attempted to blow herself up so that Koichi would never forget her.

Quirk
Queen Bee: Bee☆Pop's Quirk allows her to take control of a human host, and gives her access to a massive swarm of worker bees with her. While on Trigger, she can telepathically control the bees to a limited extent, but when she starts singing, the bees become hostile and go into an attack mode.

The bees can have different abilities, such as disrupting and hacking electrical signals. There are also Bomb Bees that have abdomens filled with an explosive substance. Bomb Bees can self-destruct and explode, causing lots of damage. She is able to inject Trigger into her body using the stingers of her bees, some of which contain the drug in their abdomens. Bee☆Pop seems to be largely unaffected when a bee is injured or destroyed, unlike with Kuin Hachisuka, where damage done to the bees inflicts pain on her.

Former Quirk
Leap: Due to possessing Kazuho Haneyama, Bee☆Pop is able to access her Quirk. Leap allows Bee☆Pop to leap very high, but requires a solid surface to jump off of.

She can use her Quirk to cushion her landing after she leaps, but cannot cushion herself from a normal fall.

It is unclear to what extent Trigger enhances Leap.

Super Moves

 * Bomb Bees: Using the Queen Bee Quirk, Bee☆Pop can create Bomb Bees, highly explosive bees that detonate when ordered to. However, the bees can also detonate inadvertently when exposed to substances such as flames. The destruction of a bee seems to take a toll on Bee☆Pop.
