What do your results mean for you?

Deku and Bakugou are the lead characters in My Hero Academia. One is soft-spoken and kind-hearted, and the other is an explosive force of nature. Their dynamic and rivalry crank the show's engine and keep things exciting, and theirs is a friendship for the ages. In this quiz, we tell you which half of the duo you are, and here's what those results mean:

Deku
You're starry-eyed and warm-hearted, always encouraging others to do their best because your best is all you can do. You're humble, honest, and friendly, and people know they can trust you with a secret and to have their backs when they're in a tight spot. You sometimes feel like you don't measure up, or like you're being left behind, but that's all the more reason to go all-out and strive to improve. The truth is, of course, that your friends see you as not only an equal, but a role model as well as tough competition. You set the tone and the vibe, and they appreciate the laid-back but passionate energy you bring to the group.

Bakugou
You're the hotshot, the fiery personality who sets the pace and leaves everyone scrambling to catch up. You live for competition, and you love a thrill, which means when you're around, things are never boring. Your friends see you as someone who injects some much-needed energy into the group, challenging them to try new things and get outside their comfort zones. You can be pretty prickly sometimes, but they know that that's just your way of inspiring others to lock in and do better. Of course, you have a sensitive side that you don't always show, but those closest to you (like your Deku) have a way of bringing it out and helping you express yourself. That's all good stuff, but you're still a stallion who won't be tamed.
