He is extremely arrogant. He also thinks of people such as Izuku Midoriya as an obstacle on his path to becoming the greatest hero.

Past
Katsuki and Izuku have lived in the same neighboorhood since childhood and thus, have been childhood friends since their youngest age. Katsuki had always been praised by the teachers and other people, and had always been the best at everything, as he has a powerful quirk. He would always bully Izuku because the latter was "quirkless" and couldn't do anything right. He always felt superior and thought that nobody would ever be better than him.

Entrance Exam Arc
When walking into the front of Yuuei Katsuki sees Izuku also walking in. He confronts him by telling him to get out of his way and walks passed him. Later in the auditorium in Yuuei, he sits next to Izuku and tells him to "shut it" because Izuku is yelling about Present Mic being Examiner. Katsuki then gets mad when Present Mic tells them that they can't attack other examinees because he really wanted to crush Izuku. Later during Plus Ultra, Katsuki can be seen destroying multiple enemies.

Quirk
"Explosion" - The power to make things explode on contact.

Izuku Midoriya
Katsuki and Izuku are childhood friends but Katsuki always considered the latter as a hindrance, an obstacle, in his path to become the greatest hero. Although he felt he was superior to Izuku, there are times where he had a feeling that Izuku was making fun of him by saving him or "hiding the fact that he had a quirk all this time".
