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 your stereotypical kendo captain who's extremely unlikeable with no character development personality and barely has any screen-time.
 * 2) He is much more like an aggressive delinquent and a real jerk that the Disciplinary Committee President of Namimori Middle, Kyoya Hibari should have become.
 * 3) He makes sure Tsuna is better off a loser and threaten him to stay away from Kyoko.
 * 4) 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.
 * 5) He does not apologize for his actions to Tsuna or Kyoko.
 * 6) He treats Tsuna disrespectfully and never cares about his low-esteemed behavior.
 * 7) He has no reason to treat Tsuna, poorly due to his poor esteem skills.
 * 8) He is totally pathetic as Tsuna's opponent.
 * 9) He is said to have a chauvinistic attitude towards female students at school.
 * 10) He is very mean-spirited, whose behavior thinks he's better than anyone.
 * 11) He is rubbish who only exists to be the first antagonist of the series, and he served no purpose to the greater narrative of the story.
 * 12) He is downright despicable for how he needs to deal with people who did this by accident, and he never gets over it.
 * 13) Since being a "antagonist", Mochida is somewhat just a selfish boy who shows no respect to Tsuna and the students for no reason.
 * 14) In the pilot chapter, he threatened to have Tsuna tied up in order to keep him away from cheating on his exams.
 * 15) 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.
 * 16) 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 and led him to be hospitalized.

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.
