Biography

Rumi Usagiyama (Japanese: 兎山 ルミ, Hepburn: Usagiyama Rumi)

In her middle school years, Rumi Usagiyama crashed several fight clubs in Hiroshima, becoming known as the legendary schoolgirl hooligan - "bunny-eared Usako". She was eventually apprehended, and in the end, she vanished after being taken into custody and the name of her school was exposed; she was consequently expelled. She eventually enrolled into an unnamed hero school in Hiroshima. Some time later, on a school trip to Osaka, she and two of her friends got lost, but a young Fat Gum gave them directions, so the girls prepare to continue on their trip. However, Rumi catches a whiff of her favorite thing, and the scent indicates that a battle is taking place nearby. Before her friends can stop her, she jumps in the direction of where said battle is taking place. Finally arriving at the said place, she is eager to participate in the fun as well.

Rumi broke into the Underground Masquerade, interrupting a fight between Umeda Siberian and Metro Namba Crusher, while also stealing a tiger mask and introducing herself as the Masked Mystery Beauty: Tiger Bunny. The announcer and crowd were confused, until one of the people recognized her as "Usako". Rumi tried to hide her true identity, but nobody bought it, so instead she just piped herself up ready to battle. The two current fighters lectured her about her actions, before attacking her, but Rumi dodged them and fought back, easily defeating them both before challenging everyone in the club to fight. The rest of the audience reacted with enthusiasm as they all attempted to rush into the cage, with Rumi beating all of them. The one-sided brawl was immediately interrupted when the alarm went off, followed by gas starting to pour into the arena. In the control room, All For One, who had been watching the fights, had decided to release a gas that makes the Quirks of those who breathe it go out of control. Chaos broke out in the room, and All For One took advantage of the pell-mell situation to steal those Quirks that caught their attention with the help of Kurogiri. Thanks to the fact that she was above the ring cage, Rumi avoided breathing the gas, but without her noticing, Kurogiri's Warp Gate forms behind her as a hand tries to snatch her Rabbit Quirk. Fortunately for her, she was snagged out of there by the Pro Hero O'Clock. He was there because he had infiltrated the Underground Masquerade to investigate the Quirk-boosting drugs trafficking that took place during the event. He took her to a safe area, where the underground fighter The Rapper also was. O'Clock asked both of them for help to escape the underground structure and meet back up with the Police Force waiting out front. He recognized Tiger Bunny's uniform, saying he would clear things up with her school, with her responding that they don't need to know about this, asking how she can help.

Mirko came to be invited to the Japanese Billboard Charts event, where she was declared the No. 5 Hero. In her statement to the crowd, she announces that she will pummel anyone scheming to do bad things. Mirko also notes on Hawks' bold demeanor for interrupting the announcements and mocking Endeavor. Upon witnessing the broadcast of Endeavor's fight with Hood, Mirko puts her words to action and rushes to the scene. She arrived in time to block Dabi's attack on Endeavor and Hawks. With Mirko on the scene, Dabi chooses to retreat. Mirko attempts to knock Dabi down to 'kingdom come' but missed as the Villain disappears via an unknown Warping Quirk. After Dabi's retreat, she quickly leaves the area in search of the League.

Many Heroes across Japan are rallied by the Hero Public Safety Commission, who reveal that they have info on where the recently formed Paranormal Liberation Front is currently residing thanks to Hawks. Mirko is assigned to the Jaku General Hospital raid team along with several other Pro Heroes. Once the Hero teams are set into position, they all prepare for the upcoming storm that lies ahead of them. Upon reaching their destined locations, the Heroes all launch their move to take down the Paranormal Liberation Front once and for all. Endeavor leads his team to evacuate any civilians inside Jaku Hospital. While Endeavor and a few others evacuate the remaining patients inside the hospital, Mirko decides to go on ahead in hopes of trying to locate Doctor Kyudai Garaki's laboratory, the main location of where the Nomu are currently manufactured. However, as Mirko zooms past several corridors of the hospital, she warns Endeavor that a couple of Nomus hybrids are starting to emerge underground.
