Rumi Usagiyama

Rumi Usagiyama (ルミ), also known as Rabbit Hero: Mirko (ラビットヒーロー ミルコ), is the No. 5 Pro Hero.

Appearance
Rumi has an athletic yet curveacous figure with muscular arms and legs, and stands at a slightly below average height. Rumi has dark skin, red eyes which are tilted slightly inwards, long eyelashes, and straight white hair that used to reach down past her waist, but was later cut short.

On her head, she has a pair of long white rabbit ears pointing upwards with a slight crook. Along with these, she also has a white round tail, which gives her overall design a definite resemblance to an albino rabbit.

Her hero costume consists of a sleeveless white leotard with dark purple trim around her shoulders and waist, a wide yellow crescent moon design over her chest, and a single thick metal plate wrapped around her midriff.

She wears purple thigh-high boots to compliment her leotard, with more plating around the heel and toe areas, making her feet look like those of a rabbit. She also has a pair of thick, white gloves on her hands with long cuffs, sporting small triangular protrusions around their edges.

During the Jaku General Hospital raid, her left forearm was crushed and her right shin was stabbed by a High-End Nomu, while the tip of her right ear got sliced off. In the aftermath of the War, she now possesses a prosthetic left forearm and right leg, which are interchangeable in case they get destroyed. During the Final War, her right forearm is bitten off by a mouth on Tomura Shigaraki's arm growth.

Personality
Rumi is tough and always speaks her mind, even if it causes confrontation, and she respects those who do the same. Rumi seems to believe that heroes who join teams are cowards, as they could just be relying on their teammates' strength rather than their own. As a hero, she proves to be very fearless and independent, freely traversing Japan while bravely facing any villain she comes across.

Despite her brash demeanor, Rumi isn't above assisting others as she came to the aid of Endeavor and Hawks after seeing their battle with Hood on the news. She also requested Endeavor's help while fighting a villain on one occasion, showing that she isn't unwilling to ask for help from other heroes despite her solo disposition.

She also assisted the team assigned to take down Tomura Shigaraki in the Final War, where her overzealous and brash personality combatted with someone who shared similar traits, Katsuki Bakugo, leading to the two arguing on the battlefield.

Rumi embraces life-threatening situations with a bright grin and is constantly searching for the next big adrenaline kick, smiling in the face of danger. She does not back down, even when she is overpowered by stronger enemies, claiming to only be getting warmed up. Rumi also appears to take every day of her life with no regrets, admitting she'd risk her life for the greater good. Her great devotion and bravery even earned her the respect of Endeavor, who vowed to finish Rumi's work and defeat the villains in her stead when the Rabbit Hero was left unable to fight.

Rumi is capable of enduring extreme pain without losing focus and faces her own wounds reluctantly. She is pragmatic and quick thinking, as she was able to bind off her bloodstream with her own thick hair, to keep fighting without her arm. Both times she had lost her arms were unable to halt her rampage, able to improvise and keep up her assault.

When she was in middle school, she was known to be a hooligan, constantly starting trouble by infiltrating fight clubs and joining in the fights, to the point of being expelled from her school. This continued into her high school days where her attraction to fighting arenas led her to the Underground Masquerade. Here she was able to establish her prowess as a future Pro Hero, with her desire not to sit on the sides and finish a fight all the way through, gaining the respect of O'Clock. She also refused to take any compensation for her actions, intending to make it big all on her own in the future.

Abilities
Overall Abilities: As the No. 5 Pro Hero, Rumi is more powerful than most other Pro Heroes. Her hearing capability is outstanding, as she was even able to locate her target through minimal noise. She was also shown to be capable of multitasking, as she simultaneously attacks, dodges, and concludes information about the enemies.

During the early stages of the Paranormal Liberation War, Rumi fought against several High-End Nomu unaided for an extended period of time, incapacitating a few, and decapitating one. Though once the Nomu were fully stabilized, she was easily overpowered, and fully expected to die before deciding to take the Doctor down with her.

Later while fighting against in the Final War against the villains, Rumi was selected to join the Hero team to assist Izuku Midoriya in the battle against "Tomura Shigaraki", despite the handicaps she suffered in her battle with the Nomu, a further testament to her might as a hero. While Izuku's arrival was delayed, she single-handedly managed hold back the enhanced villain, in a rage-fuelled rampage, her blows were strong enough to make the villain stagger. Though once "Tomura" evolved into his final form, she was quickly cast aside with a single blow.
 * Enhanced Strength: Rumi has proved to possess incredible physical strength, being able to easily defeat several Nomus and to break down the huge metal gate that kept Kyudai Garaki's secret laboratory. Remarkably, she was able to momentarily incapacitate some of the High-End Nomu and sever one of their heads. However, after they started to stabilize, she was quickly overwhelmed by them to the point that she was prepared to die and decided to finish off Doctor Garaki to take him with her.
 * Enhanced Speed: In conjunction with her level of physical strength, Rumi possesses an equally impressive amount of speed. Her speed allowed her to reach Kyudai's laboratory in just a few minutes, being barely slowed by the Nomus that tried to stop her. She was also fast enough to keep up with the High-End Nomu, but once they began to stabilize, Rumi was unable to land any more blows on the High-Ends.

 * Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Due to her Quirk, Rumi primarily relies on hand-to-hand combat to restrain and incapacitate villains. Thanks to her strong legs, she heavily favors kicks in her fighting style, matched with incredible speed and the ability to build up momentum by jumping from one spot to the next.

This grants her incredible leg strength, allowing her to jump and kick with extreme force; she can even destroy large chunks of the ground by thumping her foot.
