Kensuke Mochida

Kensuke Mochida is a minor antagonist along as the first antagonist of the manga series Reborn! He is the captain of the Namimori Kendo Club, who has a chauvinistic attitude towards female students and was Tsuna's first opponent during his first day with the baby hitman, Reborn.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is extremely unlikeable and barely has any screen-time.
 * 2) He is much more like an aggressive delinquent and a jerk that Disciplinary Committee President Kyoya Hibari should have become.
 * 3) He makes sure Tsuna is better off a loser.
 * 4) He has no character development and personality.
 * 5) He threatens Tsuna, who attacked him outside of school, to challenge him in a kendo match for harming Kyoko, so this will make him proud of it.
 * 6) He does not apologize for his actions to Tsuna or Kyoko.
 * 7) He treats Tsuna disrespectfully due to his poor skills at athleticism and his grades.
 * 8) He has no reason to treat Tsuna, poorly due to his poor esteem skills.
 * 9) He is totally pathetic as Tsuna's opponent.
 * 10) He is said to have a chauvinistic attitude towards female students at school.
 * 11) He is very mean-spirited, whose behavior thinks he's better than anyone.
 * 12) He is rubbish who only exists to be the first antagonist of the series, but he doesn't only need to be Tsuna's dramatic tension.
 * 13) In the pilot chapter, he threatened to have Tsuna tied up in order to keep him away from cheating on his exams.
 * 14) HYPOCRISY: He thinks those who attack him deserved to be forced into a kendo challenge as punishment and to teach them a lesson for their troubles
 * 15) In the Kokuyo arc, Mochida is likely a poor fighter who only does kendo with a wooden training stick, when he was beaten by the Kokuyo gang led by Mukuro Rokudo.

The Only 2 Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He only appears in 2 episodes.
 * 2) Thankfully Tsuna was able to defeat him in a kendo match along with the class test in the pilot chapter, thus Mochida will never harm him again.
