Katsuki's Quirk is Explosion (爆破), which allows him to create explosions with his hands by detonating a nitroglycerin-like substance in his hoodies; throughout the series, he learns several different ways to apply this.

Family relationship
Opposite Temperaments:
Masaru is peaceful and sensible, balancing the domestic environment dominated by Mitsuki's (his mother's) energetic frankness and Katsuki's strong personality.

Origin of Individuality:
Masaru's Quirk allows him to create small detonations by sweating an acidic liquid, a characteristic that, combined with Mitsuki's trait, generated Katsuki's formidable power.

Treatment:
Katsuki informally calls his father "old man," maintaining a distant relationship in words, but one of implicit respect and family support during critical moments in the story.
