Akane Owari is a student of Hope's Peak Academy granted the title of Ultimate Gymnast. Characterized by her love for eating, fighting, and training, she struggles academically but is a world-class athlete. Having escaped the extreme poverty that defined her childhood, Akane has clung to the abundance of good food around her, softening her figure after a few years of binging. She remains a competitive martial artist, but she has an even lower opinion of herself now than she did before.
