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 along with being presumably Kyoko's boyfriend. Mochida was also Tsuna's first opponent during his first day and encounter 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 3 Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He only appears in 2 episodes.
 * 2) Thankfully Tsuna was able to beat him in a kendo match along with succeeding in the class test from the pilot chapter, thus Mochida will never harm him again.
 * 3) Despite acting much like a delinquent, Mochida is better off a coward just like Tsuna.
