Personality
La Brava is a loyal fan and admirer of Gentle, making sure to record his acts to subsequently post them online, following Gentle's instructions to interrupt a stream if needed. Despite knowing about his strength and abilities, La Brava may become worried if Gentle finds himself in potential danger. La Brava is in love with Gentle, as shown through her Quirk "Love".

U.A. Cultural Festival Arc
La Brava is first seen recording Gentle as he robs a convenience store. Later, she informs Gentle that their video of the robbery isn't receiving as many views as they had hoped. While busily monologuing, Gentle spills tea on La Brava.

After uploading the J Store video, La Brava is infuriated that the video hasn't got any views despite Gentle's dashing performance. Gentle and La Brava think that Stain's biographical video stole the spotlight from them as well as the prominence of the League of Villains. Gentle agrees with La Brava on the fact that violence can make a spectacle, and points out the differences between them. La Brava and Gentle talk about their next project which involves U.A's Culture Festival, the school that was fortified after being attacked and the current symbol of the Heroes. Gentle believes that if he invades U.A’s Cultural Festival then he will become the center of attention.

The next day, Gentle is seen working non-stop. As La Brava goes to fetch some tea, Gentle notes that dissatisfaction is growing towards Heroes now a days because of their feeble minded nature. Gentle praises U.A.'s preparations but criticizes their resourcefulness when faced with the unpredictable. La Brava wonders if Gentle will involve the U.A. students, to which he finds that simply invading U.A.'s Cultural Festival in it of itself is a wake up call for them to grow stronger, which La Brava finds cool. On his computer, Gentle decides to double check the route they will take to get to U.A.'s Cultural Festival.

On the day of the attack, a disguised Gentle and La Brava run into Izuku. Who apologizes while the disguised Gentle is more worried about losing the aftertaste of the Golden Tips Imperial. Gentle and La Brava attempt to leave wanting to avoid further contact. Hearing them talking about coffee, Izuku notes that the house was a coffee shop which grabs Gentle's attention. Gentle is impressed that Izuku knows of the Golden Tips Imperial tea. Izuku finds the disguised man's voice familiar while Gentle praises Izuku's friend but soon deduces that Izuku is from U.A. Suddenly, Izuku manages to figure out his identity. Seeing that it is too late to cover up since Izuku is not naive, he turns around and takes his mask off wondering to whom Izuku was referring. Izuku tells Gentle that he saw his video; Gentle faces Izuku as he tells La Brava to turn the camera towards him.

While La Brava recognizes Izuku from somewhere. Gentle tells La Brava there's been a change of plans and to keep the camera recording no matter what. He removes his cape and hat, ande tells his listeners to bear witness to his dazzling ambitions. When Gentle blasts Izuku across the street using his quirk. La Brava becomes surprised at his elasticity power. Gentle bids Izuku farewell as they bounces away on his Gently Trampolines. La Brava remembers that Izuku is from U.A's Sports Festival and tells Gentle this fact, which surprises Gentle who wanted to not be further involved with Izuku and decides to quickly infiltrate U.A before he gets the chance to tell them. Izuku comes charging and grabs Gentle, smashing him into a construction building as La Brava cries out.

As La Brava runs towards the construction site and reaches them, Izuku tells Gentle that the moment he enters U.A's Cultural Festival the alarm will go off and the festival will be cancelled immediately with nowhere for him to run. Gentle mentions alarms do not concern him as his partner in crime, La Brava will render the alarms ineffective. Observing Gentle, La Brava asks him to retreat. He tells her not yet and turns the construction beams around him into elastic. Gentle uses his Quirk to turn a crane's hook into slingshot, and launch himself and La Brava out of the construction site. When Gentle dodges Izuku's air attack. La Brava sees that Izuku refuses to give up and has no choice but to use her Quirk.

Retreating from the construction site Gentle and La Brava dicuss her quirk until Izuku appears above them. Charging at them at them with super speed, Izuku manages to pin them both down on the ground. Viewing Gentle she shares her love for him which enpowers him to overthrow Izuku. As Gentle delivers an attack to Izuku, La Brava watches on, only for Izuku to be uneffected.

When they are knocked back by Izuku's attack La Brava becomes emotional and apolizes for her love not being enough. when La Brava apolizes her not love being enough gentle tells her nothing can prove that her feeling weren't enough.
