Habit Headgear

Vihara Headgear (僧帽ヘッドギア) is a villain in Boku no Hero Academia.

Appearance
Vihara is an enormous, muscular humanoid villain with an unusual extension from his shoulders that grows up and over his head, which gives it a hood-like appearance. His face is largely concealed within this hood, only showing round, white eyes and a large mouth.

He wears an armored half-vest with a chain over his right shoulder and cargo pants with additional plating.

Personality
He is shown to be a stereotypical villain as he is first introduced with an armful of hostages and threatening to crush them if the heroes give chase. He is quick to mock his foes with his speed and brag about the apparent ease of his future getaway.

Unforeseen Simulation Joint Arc
He was terrorizing the town and holding hostages, while Mount Lady and Kamui Wood were having trouble dealing with him. As he was bragging, All Might shows up from behind and uses Missouri Smash to beat him and save the hostages.

Power and Abilities
He is assumed to be fairly powerful as both Mount Lady and Kamui Wood were struggling against him, even when he was holding a hostage.

He possesses an unknown Quirk that gives him a fair amount of strength and speed, but it was far below that of All Might's, as All Might defeats him with a single blow to the back of the head.
