Minoru Mineta/Relationships

Izuku Midoriya
Izuku is a fellow student of Minoru's in Class 1-A. Minoru has come to admire Izuku for his acts of heroism and for believing in his abilities as a hero, although he is somewhat skeptical at first of Izuku's determination. Minoru's perverse antics usually gross Izuku out, with the most noticeable occurrence being in Save! Rescue Training, where Minoru is forbidden to carry any female rescues due to inquiring about holding their behinds.

The two have become friends, particularly following their battle together against the League of Villains. He was one of the people who went to see Izuku after his loss to Shoto during the U.A. Sports Festival and became frantic along with the others upon hearing that he required surgery, showing that Minoru cares for his wellbeing. They have also been seen talking to each other and hanging out in-between classes on occasion.

He was quite amazed to see that Izuku overcame his drawbacks and improve in the Rescue training race.

It appears he has picked up some of Izuku's habits, as he used his own knowledge of heroes' Quirks to defeat Midnight. Minoru also engaged in commentary with Izuku during the Joint Training Battle.

During the battle between Class 1-A and Deku, Minoru says that he never thought the power of One For All was amazing, but what made Minoru admire Izuku was how he leads everyone to victory despite being scared himself. Upon Izuku's return to U.A., Minoru was the most desperate to comfort him when he broke down into tears, running up to him before being stopped by Tenya and then running up to him later alongside Kota to hug him. Minoru also joined the others in bathing Izuku and agreed with him on forgiving Yuga Aoyama for unwillingly being All For One's mole within U.A. High.

Tsuyu Asui
Tsuyu is frequently seen together with Minoru, although she constantly punishes him for perverted behavior or insensitive comments. Tsuyu most often hits Minoru with her tongue.

However, the two seem to be on friendly terms, to a degree. They worked together to defeat several villains in U.S.J. Arc and he even earned her praise for his ingenuity. They also worked together U.A. Sports Festival Arc.

Momo Yaoyorozu
Minoru is greatly attracted to Momo due to her attractiveness and womanly figure, and she has been on the receiving end of a few of Minoru's perverted ploys. During the Obstacle Race at the U.A. Sports Festival, Minoru used his Quirk to attach himself to Momo's back, knowing that her speed would help him arrive at the finishing line sooner. Later on, Minoru and Denki tricked Momo and the other girls into wearing cheerleader outfits, that Momo created herself using her Creation Quirk, much to the girl's anger and humiliation.

In return, Momo cannot stand Minoru's perverted behavior and is often seen rebuking him with angered or disgusted looks.

Denki Kaminari
Due to their shared perverted interest in girls, Denki and Minoru frequently hang out with each other. They both once played a prank on the Class 1-A girls during the U.A. Sports Festival, where they tricked them into wearing cheerleading outfits for their own personal amusement. Together, they tricked Izuku to help persuade Shota Aizawa to give them permission to use the school pool just to see the girls in their bikinis. Although they were both disappointed to find the girls wearing school-issued swimsuits, Minoru was still appreciative that the girls were wearing swimsuits while Denki insisted he get standards. Despite Denki's interest in girls, he still respects the girls' privacy and tells Minoru that he's taking it too far when he reveals his plans to climb the wall to spy on the girls' side of the hot springs. When a peephole to the girls' locker room was discovered Minoru felt it was a blessing while Denki was shocked.

They have also discussed other things, such as potential Super Moves that they might develop. Denki was jealous that Minoru got a higher grade than him at the exams which meant he was more intelligent.

Hanta Sero
Hanta is often seen chastising Minoru for his perverse actions, though they get along as well. Minoru was also cheering for Hanta during his battle with Shoto in the Sports Festival.

They were paired up in their First Term Final Exam against Midnight and Hanta used his tape to get Minoru away from Midnight's Quirk, leaving Hanta himself susceptible and thus incapacitated. Despite this, Minoru was envious of Hanta, since he was able to use Midnight as a lap pillow while unconscious. However, due to Hanta's actions, Minoru was able to best Midnight and carried Hanta through the exit. Minoru took great pride in hearing Hanta admit that he couldn't have beat Midnight without his help.

Katsuki Bakugo
Minoru shares a rather negative relationship with Katsuki. Like his other classmates, Minoru is put-off by his loud-mouthed nature and violent behavior, while Katsuki constantly derides Minoru as a coward and a weakling. During the Sports Festival, Minoru condemned Katsuki's relentless attacks on Ochaco, calling him a sadist. Later on, when Katsuki ruins his interviews and gets himself cut due to his abrasive commentary, he calls Katsuki nuts. In spite of this, Minoru was greatly worried when Katsuki was injured during the Paranormal Liberation War, and upon waking up from his two-day coma, Minoru shouted out in relief, going so far as to hug him with tears flowing down his cheeks. He also aided his classmates in restraining him after he causes a ruckus. However, he was aware that he was upset about Izuku still being unconscious.

Kyoka Jiro
While the two don't interact much, Kyoka despises Minoru's perverted behavior, just as the other girls do. He is often the recipient of her chastising or punishment with her Quirk on a few occasions.

On the other hand, Minoru doesn't seem to pay Kyoka as much attention as the other girls in class 1-A, which she takes offense to, as it is suggested that Minoru doesn't see her as attractive. This was seen during Minoru's attempt to peek in on the girls locker room and he didn't bring up Kyoka while fawning over the other girls, which she noted just after stabbing him in the eye with one of her earphone cables. Minoru also ridiculed her smaller chest size on one occasion, which angered her greatly.

Despite this, Minoru doesn't seem to hate Kyoka, and in spite her punishing him for his behavior, this seems to go both ways. While debating over who should do the lead vocals for the U.A. School Festival, Minoru is shown to be greatly shocked by Kyoka's beautiful singing voice, alongside the rest of the class. Beforehand, he also commented on Kyoka's dress at the I-Island Expo party, although this earned both him and Denki a jab from her earphone cables, despite Denki insisting it was a compliment.

During 1-A's hot pot party, Kyoka is shown teasing Minoru over the upcoming final exams and asks if he's worried over failing them, something the rest of the class jokingly laughed at.

Eraser Head
Shota is aware of Minoru's perverted personality, he even does not hesitate to describe him as the "embodiment of lust". Although Shota does not do much to correct this attitude, he does not allow Minoru to cross certain lines of human decency, especially when it comes to peek on girls. Due to his attitude, Minoru is scared of his homeroom teacher when he stops him.

For this reason, Shota usually warns other people about Minoru’s attitude so that they take the necessary measures in this regard, or he generates an aura of intimidation to make sure that Minoru does not do anything perverted.

However, there appears to be mutual respect since Minoru once helped Izuku and Tsuyu rescue Shota from Nomu. Shota also supports him by giving him confidence when he feels overwhelmed by a challenge, as when Minoru was nervous about the Provisional Hero License Exam. Shota encourages him to do his best so that he can pass the exam and further his goal in becoming a Hero. This both scared and encourages the boy to trying his best.

Midnight
Because of his lecherous tendencies, Minoru was greatly attracted to her beauty.

Minoru was forced to fight her in his First Term Final Exam along with Hanta. He was saved from her Quirk by Hanta though was envious, as she allowed Hanta to use her lap as a pillow. Midnight soon pursued him and took a sadistic joy in the act. However, Minoru admitted to being a fan of hers and knew about her Quirk from it. Using ingenious thinking, Minoru was not a victim to her Quirk and left her trapped as he dashed passed her and won the match. The Pro Hero was greatly impressed by his acts and complimented his strategy to best her.

All Might
Minoru has expressed great admiration for the Symbol of Peace.

When the villains first attacked U.A. High and they revealed their plan to kill the symbol of peace, he immediately assured his classmates that no one could defeat All Might. Later on, during the fight between Nomu and All Might, Minoru cheered the hero on, confident he could defeat the bio-engineered enemy. When All Might was fighting All for One, Minoru was in tears, cheering the number one hero on and showing how dedicated he is towards the symbol of peace.

Mt. Lady
Due to his lecherous and naughty personality, originally Minoru chooses Mt. Lady for an internship. Tsuyu immediately accuses him of thinking something perverted when selecting her, although he denies it.

Days later, when Denki asks Minoru about how his experience was with her, Minoru answers while quivering. Whatever he experienced under her gives him nothing but bad memories, and he tells Denki that all women are demons who hide their true personalities. The anime shows that what he experienced was essentially being made into her servant, cleaning up and doing other menial labor around her office while she lazed around.

That bad experience continues to affect him, and now hearing her name terrifies him. When Denki comments that she forms a team with Kamui Woods and Edgeshot, Minoru starts shivering.

When they meet again, he is alarmed to see her and immediately points out that Mt. Lady is the most "showbiz" hero out there. Mt. Lady ignores his protests and encourages him and his class to try their best for the "Hero Interview Training".
