Tajima is a Villain who is one of several undercover spies sent by All For One to infiltrate U.A. High School. He serves as a minor antagonist in the Final War Arc.
Appearance#
Tajima is a young man with short dark hair, typically wearing a dark sweater over a plaid shirt.
Personality#
Tajima's strong loyalty to All For One is based upon his fear of being eliminated for not following orders or not proving his worth to him. This fear pushes him into dutifully going along with directives or taking drastic actions that could lead to innocent people being hurt. He believes that All For One ruling the world is inevitable, a belief that only helped spurn his fears. Despite usually keeping a stern, cool-headed, demeanor when performing his role as a spy, whenever things go in his favor or against it, he tends to internally become quite excited or anxious.
Synopsis#
U.A. Traitor Arc#
At some point, alongside four other spies, Tajima was sent by All For One to infiltrate U.A. High School, posing as a refugee. From there, All For One secretly messaged Tajima who relayed All For One's orders to stir up discontent inside the school in order to create pressure that would force Izuku Midoriya into leaving U.A. However, such plans were halted as the spies would be amongst the crowd to hear that Izuku and Class 1-A were preparing to leave U.A. anyway. Believing that this would make All For One's goal come to fruition sooner (thus ensuring safety for the spies' futures), Tajima relayed such information to All For One.[1]
Final War Arc#
Prior to the Final War commencing, All For One told Tajima and his cohorts to listen to Skeptic's commands. Thus, when the war started, both he and Mihaera were in the midst of the other evacuees listening for orders as Skeptic hacked into U.A.'s systems, disrupting the evacuation blocks travelling in-between U.A. and Shiketsu High School.[2]
However, upon losing communication with Skeptic, Tajima was left panicking as he stopped one of the evacuation blocks from the inside. Reasoning that he needed to contribute something in order to survive in a world ruled by All For One, he prepared to use his Quirk to interfere more with U.A.'s systems, before being discovered by Gunhead, announcing that he found the mole.[3] While the spies' efforts resulted in the system's foundation being permanently disabled for one of the evacuation blocks, thus forcing the refugees inside to leave, the infiltrators would get captured by Itsuka Kendo, Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, and Gunhead, being successfully apprehended by the latter.[4]
Tajima and the rest of the spies and promptly arrested following the conclusion of the Final War and All For One's defeat.
