Appearance
Awakened Cockroach appears as a large humanoid cockroach with a dark-colored carapace and a human face. He has six arms and long antennas.

Personality
Awakened Cockroach is confident in his abilities. He prefers targeting heroes in contrast to other monsters. Awakened Cockroach does not seem to kill heroes, but rather focuses on incapacitating them and then letting other monsters finish them off. He occasionally humors himself during battle.

Monster Raid Arc
Awakened Cockroach alongside the Monster Association, attacked C-City. He defeated 3 heroes and encounters Genos and warns him that he is strong.

During the fight with Genos, Awakened Cockroach maintains superiority, blocking or dodging every attack by Genos, while sending out his own attacks, outmaneuvering the cyborg with his speed. Awakened Cockroach has the upper hand until Genos decides to use instant adhesive to trap the monster, which was originally meant for use against speedster villains like Speed-o'-Sound Sonic. However before Genos could kill the monster, Awakened Cockroach sacrifices his feet to get away.

Monster Association Arc
After his battle with Genos, Awakened Cockroach goes to the Monster Association Headquarters in order to partake in a meeting that the monsters were having. During the meeting, Orochi impales Awakened Cockroach with one of his horns, after realizing that he lost a battle prior to the meeting. Despite begging for mercy, Awakened Cockroach is devoured and killed by the Monster King.

Immense Strength: He is able to damage Genos quite a bit during their fight.

Enhanced Senses: Awakened Cockroach's senses are far beyond the norm. According to him, even if his opponent could attack at the speed of light, they still would not be able to hit him because his body developed a sixth sense; being able to sense killing intent and dodges attacks on its own in advance.

Fighting Style
Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Awakened Cockroach has shown to be on par with S-Class heroes when it comes to close quarters combat.
