This article is about the Wild, Wild Pussycats member. For the No. 10 Pro Hero known as Ryukyu, see Ryuko Tatsuma.
Ryuko Tsuchikawa (
Appearance[]
Ryuko is a woman with blue eyes, and long blonde hair that's mostly combed back save for her bangs.
Pixie-Bob wears a light blue version of the Pussycat's hero costume. She draws two blue dots on her cheeks whenever she wears it. Her costume also includes a tinted visor that she uses with her Quirk.
Personality[]
"I'm 18 at heart!"
Ryuko is a very hyperactive and loud person with little regard for how she may come off to other people.
She is very self-conscious about her age and punished Izuku Midoriya when he nearly brought it up, saying that she's still eighteen at heart. Shino Sosaki says Ryuko is in a rush to find love and that her impatience has only grown worse over the years. Ryuko seems to have a fondness for young promising heroes like Izuku, Tenya Ida, Shoto Todoroki, and Katsuki Bakugo and is unafraid to display it.
Despite her wackiness, Ryuko has shown she has the ability to tone back her eccentrics and communicate like a normal person. She even called Eijiro Kirishima and Denki Kaminari weird for acting strangely when they were eating dinner. Ryuko also showed great sadness when discussing Kota Izumi's past.
Abilities[]
Overall Abilities: As a member of the Wild, Wild Pussycats, Ryuko is a highly competent and skilled Pro Hero. With her powerful Quirk, she can easily manipulate the earth around her to aid in mountain rescues. She was also able to take the entirety of Class 1-A by surprise, using her Quirk to combat the talented hero students and forcing them all on the defensive. While the class were able to defeat her Earth Beasts and made it to the training camp lodge, they were all left severely worn out afterwards and had been forced to overuse their Quirks.
Ryuko's Quirk is also useful for combatting Villains and can be used to counter extremely hazardous Quirks such as Decay or Double when both were being used by Tomura Shigaraki and Himiko Toga (via Transform) respectively. With the strongest Quirk of the Pussycats, Magne of the League of Villains quickly recognized Ryuko as the most dangerous and chose to take her out of the battle straight away by knocking her unconscious.
- Cooking: Ryuko and the Pussycats are shown to be excellent chefs, preparing a massive banquet of food for the students of Class 1-A during their first day at the training camp. The students enjoyed every bite, with Denki Kaminari commenting that it was as good as Lunch Rush's food.[4]
Quirk[]
Earth monsters.
Earth Flow (
Ultimate Moves[]
- Earth Beast (
土 魔 獣 Tsuchi Majū?): Pixie-Bob uses her Quirk to create a variety of enormous Golem/Beast-like creatures out of the ground. Since they are not natural animals, Quirks that affect animals exclusively such as Anivoice have no effect on these creatures.
