Appearance
Present Mic is a tall man with long, spiky blonde hair and a small mustache. He wears a pair of headphones with the word "HAGE" written on the headband, and a pair of sunglasses. When his eyes are visible, they appear as concentric circles.

His hero costume is a black jacket with an upturned, studded collar and studded shoulders, black pants with studded belt, black boots, and black, fingerless gloves. His neck is enclosed in a large collar that resembles an old stereo player, complete with speakers, play buttons, and cassette tape.

Personality
Present Mic carries the persona of a radio host. Maintaining a level of excitement and loudness regardless of the situation or event he happens to be in. He often attempts to bring his audience up to his level by getting them involved (he sometimes refers to them as his 'listeners', even while on a live stage). Even if this results in no response from them he continues his act regardless.

Present Mic has a great aversion to bugs, to the point where he faints when too many bugs crawl up his legs. He doesn't like the forest because you can encounter a lot of bugs there. He prefers to stay in the city.

History
When he cried as a newborn, blood came out of the ears of his parents and the doctor who delivered him.

Combat Exam Arc
On the day of Class 1-A's test exercise, Present Mic is one of the teachers that Class 1-A will face in their end of term test exercise. Present Mic faces Kyouka and Kouji in their test exercise.

Kouji, Kyouka, and Present Mic arrive in an uninhabited city where Class 1-A's test exercise will take place. In the city, Present Mic says that they will be facing his top percentage; Kyouka wonders if he is referencing something, mocking him in the process, to which Present Mic tells her to watch what she says. Present Mic explains the 30 minute test; Kyouka and Kouji must either handcuff him or one of them must escape the battlefield within 30 minutes in order to win and pass the test. The test begins. Present Mic uses his loud voice against Kyouka and Kouji to keep them off balance.

Kyouka and Kouji manage to get a little closer to the escape gate, but Kyouka notes that Present Mic will be at the escape gate and that no matter what option of victory they choose, a standoff is inevitable. Present Mic uses his loud voice again; Kyouka notes that they cannot get any closer as long as Present Mic is using his Quirk. Kyouka sees an ant and comes up with an idea; she asks Kouji if he can control bugs but his terrified reaction indicates that he doesn't like bugs. Present Mic uses his loud voice once again; Kyouka tries to counteract with her Earphone Jacks but the sound of her heartbeat does not do anything against Present Mic. Present Mic continues using his loud voice against Kyouka and Kouji who are unable to handle it. Out of options, Kyouka asks Kouji if he can control insects to which he approves. Kyouka uses her Earphone Jacks to break a rock which reveals dozens of insects, much to Kouji's terror. Kyouka tells Kouji that she understands his phobia but using the insects to attack Present Mic is the only plan she can think of because their opponent is too strong. She encourages Kouji to follow through with her plan. After seeing her bleeding ears, he is ashamed that he is running away from this fight and realizes that he can only continue being at Yuuei by overcoming his fear. He musters up the courage and commands the insects to attack Present Mic. At the escape gate, Present Mic sees that time is nearly up. Suddenly, dozens of insects crawl on him, and he realizes that the insects traveled to him by moving underground, a place where sound is ineffective. He is paralyzed by fear, allowing Kouji to run through the escape gate while carrying an injured Kyouka with him; thus they pass the practical test.

Quirk and Abilities
Voice (ヴォイス): Present Mic's Quirk allows him to increase the volume of his voice, giving him the ability to create loud high pitched sounds. The sound from Present Mic's Quirk is strong enough to cause people's ears to bleed. The loudness from Present Mic's Quirk can annoy and distract enemies as well as block out other sounds.The only known weakness of this Quirk is that the loud sounds do not travel well underground, making this Quirk ineffective against anything that is underground.

Equipment
