Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu

Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu (九頭龍 冬彦), is a student of Hope's Peak Academy's Class 77-B, and a participant of the Killing School Trip. His title is the Ultimate Yakuza.

Fuyuhiko is the heir to the Kuzuryu yakuza clan, the largest criminal syndicate in the nation, with a membership surpassing 30,000.[13] He grew accustomed to the Kuzuryu Clan's way of settling disputes through violence, leading him to believe that as long as he bore his family name, he would always be surrounded by a mountain of dead bodies. His upbringing toughened him so much that he no longer cried about anything, including losing a fight by second grade. Being treated with caution by non-clan members was second nature to him due to his status. Ever since Fuyuhiko was too young to understand, he had often witnessed his parents' frequent fights. It involved his mother's various attempts to kill his hotheaded father during minor arguments that quickly escalated. There were a few instances when Fuyuhiko was nearly killed in the aftermath of his parents' fights, but his assigned hitman, who had accompanied him since infancy, Peko Pekoyama, was always there to protect him.[4]

Being a rambunctious kid, Fuyuhiko took Peko through a childhood filled with bizarre adventures with him.[14] One time, Fuyuhiko and Peko were kidnapped together, but she managed to find a way to escape, and they ended up lost in the mountains. Fuyuhiko began to cry when Peko tried to cheer him up as he could sense that she was just as scared and worried. Eventually, Peko managed to save them both using her skills as a swordswoman and her determination to protect him as his loyal tool.[15] During a visit to the zoo, Fuyuhiko once challenged the king of the monkeys to a fight, and Peko had to step in to help. He had a "handsome smile" that Peko still remembers even years later.[16]

Fuyuhiko often got into trouble, which led to incessant lectures from his parents.

He is a slim young man with a refined appearance, often described as having a "baby face." Because of his fairly short build, Fuyuhiko generally presents an overly aggressive demeanor to assert that he is, in fact, a tough gangster. He has dusty blond crew-cut hair, with a distinct pair of curved lines shaved on each side of his head. He also has freckles along the bridge of his nose and a birthmark near his mouth on the right side. His eyes are gold, and he has permanent blush marks on both cheeks.

Befitting his title, Fuyuhiko dresses in traditional yakuza fashion: well-tailored suits. During the Killing School Trip, he wears a two-piece suit consisting of a dark pinstripe jacket and pants over a white dress shirt. His tie is brown-black with an animal skull emblem on it, and he wears black dress shoes with a platform heel. On his left lapel is a pin in the shape of the emblem of the Kuzuryu family, and he wears two silver rings on his right hand. He later wears a black eyepatch with a white, round dragon pattern. Even though many Yakuza members get tattoos, Fuyuhiko states that he has not been tattooed yet.

Fuyuhiko is initially incredibly stand-offish, always in a crappy mood, and rude to the other students. He claims he's not going to play at being friends with anyone, and considers it not worth his time and beneath him. When Fuyuhiko interacts with others, whether by choice or not, his attitude is combative and irritable. He is easily angered and often resorts to threatening or insulting others when they disagree with or complain about his actions. He badmouths everyone, using names like "bastard," "dumbass," and "motherfucker." In the original Japanese, his signature insult is boke (ぼけ), and he frequently punctuates arguments with it. He is also not above casually issuing death threats to anyone who irritates him. He asserts his yakuza background so often to enhance his lone-wolf attitude. Despite claiming he had no interest in the party hosted by the Imposter, he shows signs of wanting to attend by lurking around the old building. He makes excuses before leaving the moment Chiaki picks up his true intention.
