Buster Hero: Airjet is a Pro Hero.[1]
Appearance#
Airjet's hero costume consists of a plain crimson bodysuit, plates of white armor attached to his elbows, knees, and lower arms. He wears matching knee-high boots and a cannon on his left arm, as well as his signature Airjet on his back.
The design of his helmet varies from one publication to another. In the main series, the helmet is not seen because Airjet is always shown from behind. My Hero Academia: Vigilantes shows that he wears a box-like helmet that covers his entire face. In Deku & Bakugo: Rising, he is seen in a different helmet that showcases more of his face.
Personality#
Not much of Airjet's personality is known, but he is someone known for taking his job as a Pro Hero seriously, participating in many group situations and battles with other Heroes. He has also mentioned how he can't help but want to bust a Villain anytime he encounters one, comparing his drive to a young Katsuki Bakugo's.
History#
Airjet attends a meeting alongside several Pro Heroes led by Detective Eizo Tanuma, addressing the state of unwilling civilians being injected with Trigger, and that the people in question were more victims than Villains. Endeavor argued that any public use of a Quirk is illegal and that they should treat them as Villains, while All Might, whose response was delivered by Naomasa Tsukauchi, stated that he would assess the situation at the scene more carefully because as Heroes they must not bring harm to innocent citizens. This was met as a satisfying response for the other Heroes, except for Endeavor.[2]
Airjet was later one of the many Pro Heroes who attended Captain Celebrity's farewell party at the Sky Egg, and took part in helping defend it when it was being attacked by the Bombers.[3]
A few years later, while chasing down a Villain who has the ability to transform into a sand cloud, Airjet found him having been reduced to a mud puddle by an unexpected rainstorm. After defeating the Villain with his Ultimate Move, Buster Shot, he is yelled at by a Junior High student who had also tracked the Villain down and wanted to be the one to defeat him. Airjet apologizes but confesses that he can't not bust a Villain when he sees one, while assuming that the boy is the same way. At that moment, another child arrives at the location, but Airjet recommends he stay back while thanking the other boy for "helping" defeat the villain.[4]
