Shikkui Makabe ( () (かべ) (しっ) (くい) Makabe Shikkui?), also known as Mr. Smith (Mr. (ミスター) スミス Misutā Sumisu?),[1] is a third-year student at Ketsubutsu Academy High School training to become a Pro Hero.

Following the Final War, he graduates and becomes a Pro Hero alongside his former classmates.[2]

Appearance[]

Shikkui's skin is blue, rough, and rock-like, almost as if it were a carapace. He has no visible hair, nose, or ears, but he has a wide, jagged mouth with a protruding spike sticking upwards on either side of his face, and blue eyes, rimmed with thick eyelashes of the same color. His neck is made up of multiple different rings stacked on top of each other, which are a slightly darker blue than his skin. Eight years later, the grooves lining the sides of Shikkui's eyes are deeper and have a wave-like pattern.

His hero costume consists of a puffed black parka with a high collar that is left open to reveal a thin gold chain that he has around his neck, and a plain white shirt he wears underneath. He also sports baggy, cyan pants and thick, dark blue ski boots with furred shafts.

Personality[]

Shikkui is a popular heartthrob at Ketsubutsu; he is smooth and cool alongside his friends. Like his classmates, Shikkui works hard to become a hero and believes in the strength of his class.

Synopsis[]

Provisional Hero License Exam Arc[]

Ketsubutsu Second-Year Class 2 participates in the Provisional Hero License Exam following All Might's retirement. Ms. Joke introduces her class to Shota Aizawa and his Class 1-A students from U.A. High School. Shikkui doesn't say much but Yo Shindo introduces himself personally to the U.A. students.[3]

Shikkui and Itejiro attack Class 1-A

Ketsubutsu ambushes Class 1-A.

Everyone goes inside Takoba National Stadium and changes into their Hero Costumes. After an orientation with Yokumiru Mera, the Ketsubutsu students set up an ambush in the arena. They all have some information on Class 1-A's Quirks and abilities because of the U.A. Sports Festival and tries to crush them first. This is a tradition in the licensing exam called the "Crushing of U.A.".[3]

Ketsubutsu sends their ball projectiles at their rivals in hopes of hitting their targets and eliminating them. Class 1-A proves they've progressed since the sports festival and easily defends themselves from the barrage. Shikkui agrees with Yo that U.A. has improved, but still believes their plan can succeed.

Shikkui uses his Quirk to harden his projectiles and sends them to Itejiro Toteki. Itejiro uses his Quirk to throw the projectiles with perfect accuracy. Despite Itejiro throwing the balls underground, Class 1-A counters and hits back. Yo decides their defenses are too strong and scatters them with his Tremoring Earth Ultimate Move.[4]

The Ketsubutsu students regroup and Yo goes over their current situation. His attack separated Class 1-A but students from other schools have invaded the battlefield in hopes of crushing the U.A. students. Students are rushing to pass the first phase and the battle has become chaotic. Yo believes that his class can pass by waiting for an opportunity from when other students have worn themselves out. Yo's plan works and Shikkui and his classmates pass the first phase of the licensing exam.[5]

Ketsubutsu Students after the exam

Shikkui and his classmates participate in the second phase of the exam, where students must conduct rescue operations in a simulated disaster zone. The Ketsubutsu students help establish a first aid zone and show their experience by efficiently rescuing actors from the Help Us Company.[6] Gang Orca and makeshift villains invade the operations halfway through and Shikkui's class helps evacuate the injured to safety.[7]

After the exam concludes, Ketsubutsu students join all the other participants of the second phase to see if they earned their Provisional Hero Licenses.[8]

Final War Arc[]

In preparation for the Final War, the remaining Heroes prepare themselves for an all-out-war against an army of villains led by All For One. When Skeptic successfully takes control of both U.A.'s main system in the U.A. Floating Fortress and its subterranean evacuation system, he was preparing to cause the floating U.A. in the sky to plummet toward the ground. However, he is caught completely off guard when his systems have been hijacked by La Brava, working alongside the Police Force.[9]

As she proceeds to take over everything, Skeptic prepares to flee, insisting he won't relinquish control over U.A. or the evacuation system, taking the data with himself and the puppets. However, outside the Villains' secret hideout, Skeptic is cornered by several Heroes, including the Ketsubutsu Academy students, Shikkui being among them, who had the hideout surrounded, as they were given a heads-up on his location by La Brava and were in the area.[10]

Abilities[]

Quirk[]

Stiffening ( (こう) (しつ) () Kōshitsu-ka?): Shikkui's Quirk grants him the ability to harden anything he touches with his hands. His power doesn't work on living things.[11]
