As the My Hero Academia story continues, the complexity of Quirks only seems to get more convoluted. Originally, MHA told you that Quirks were like muscles and had a hard-defined upper limit. Then, during the Forest Camp arc, the idea of breaking them down and building them back up was introduced to surpass that limit.
Next, during the Overhaul Arc, Aizawa introduced the concept of a “Quirk Factor” that directly controls each Quirk. Now, in the upcoming Season 5, some more Quirk Concepts are about to pop up, this time in relation to the villains of the series. So, without going too much into spoilers (hopefully), let’s take the time to look at some of the strongest villain Quirks in the series and rank them.
10 Soramitsu Tabe: Food
The first Quirk up is one held by a villain you probably forgot about, Soramitsu Tabe. If that name doesn’t ring a bell, he was one of the three villains Suneater went up against in the Shie Hassaikai Raid arc. Tabe’s Quirk is called “Food” and it basically means that Tabe can eat anything he wants, seemingly with no repercussions. There are three factors of this Quirk that make it particularly strong. One, it’s immediate, meaning Soramitsu simply takes a bite and the “food” is gone, there’s not much chewing involved. Two, his stomach is seemingly endless, meaning the food either disappears or his stomach is a black hole. And three, other than his insatiable hunger, there doesn’t seem to be any real limits to the Quirk itself, meaning there’s no limit to what he could eat.
9 Moon Fish: Blade-Tooth
Next up is another villain that was insanely strong, but Tokoyami’s Dark Shadow destroyed him before he could really show off his Quirk. We’re of course talking about Blade-Tooth, the Quirk used by Moon Fish, a villain who could control the growth of his teeth to absurd levels, essentially using them as limbs. It might be easier to understand if you thought of them as tendrils that Moon Fish can control, grow, and manipulate with microscopic amounts of precision. The guy kept Bakugo and Todoroki on their toes while in a straight jacket, so his strength should be pretty clear.
8 Chojuro Kon: Chimera
Chojuro Kon is a unique case for two reasons. One, he an animal person like Tokoyami who looks oddly similar to Brand New Animal’s Shirou Ogami. Two, he’s a film villain, not one from the mainline show. The film we’re talking about is MHA: Heroes Rising, which did really well in the Box Office, by the way. Of course, it wasn’t comparable to the Demon Slayer Infinity Train movie or anything, but the movie still did pretty well on its own. Now, because this film is canon, so is Kon, and so is his Quirk called Chimera. Quite honestly, this Quirk is pretty vague, but from what we can understand, Chojuro is able to endow himself with the abilities of multiple animals at once, which is incredibly similar to Suneater’s Manifest Quirk. But, it seems like Chojuro’s Quirk applies to fantastical creatures as well, since the guy is able to spew flames and laser beams from his mouth with no problem. Seriously, Chojuro feels like a monster that deserves his own spinoff Kaiju Movie or something.
7 Kurogiri: Warp Gate
We didn’t want to include any of the Nomu’s on this list, considering their strength comes from multiple quirks working together. But, Kurogiri’s Warp Gate Quirk is actually a brand new ability made from a number of other Quirks successfully meshing together.
Talking about Kurogiri as a character is difficult since a lot of his story is spoiler potential, but at the very least you should know that Warp Gate is insanely strong in the right hands. Teleportation Quirks in MHA are exceedingly rare, and Warp Gate is much more versatile than Kurogiri displays. Basically, AfO and Shigaraki use him as a teleportation Uber, but Warp Gate could easily be used in some truly horrifying ways if Kurogiri so desired. At the very least, this Quirk would make for an insane Plus Ultra in the next One’s Justice game.
6 Himiko Toga: Transform
Again, this might be getting into spoilers for Season 5, so we’ll be careful. But, Toga’s Quirk, Transform, develops a bit later on in the series. Without saying too much, it turns out there’s more to her Quirk than even Toga knew. But, by default, this Quirk is insanely powerful just from an espionage standpoint, since all it requires is a bit of blood. Just think, Toga and Stain would’ve been unstoppable if they knew each other beforehand.
5 Rikiya “Re-Destro” Yotsubashi: Stress
Rikiya Yotsubashi is a character anime-only people haven’t quite met yet, so talking about his Quirk is impossible without giving it away. So, for those who want to stay completely fresh for S5, move on to the next entry. Moving on, Rikiya’s Quirk is Stress, which is the ability to convert frustration, anger, and of course the emotion of stress into raw power. Now, this isn’t just normal super strength conversion similar to how Rikido Sato’s Sugar Rush works. No, Yosubashi, can change the appearance and size of individual limbs or his body as a whole, depending on how much stress he converts. Essentially, Rikiya is the Hulk but with full control of his size, strength, and output. Here’s hoping this is the character John Cena might be involved with due to his recent MHA-related Instagram Post?
4 Jin “Twice” Bubaigawara: Double
It’s easy to forget, but there are a couple of reasons why Double, the Quirk used by Jin Bubaigawa, otherwise known as “Twice”, is shockingly powerful. For one, it allows him to create a perfect copy of anything or anyone as long as he knows their exact measurements. And two, the clone has their own free will as well as the Quirk of the original. Now, the main downside is that Jin can only clone a person one at a time, and the clone has relatively low durability, turning into this mud-like substance after taking any sizeable amount of damage. But remember, Jin can create infinite clones of himself since every clone would be able to create another in an endless loop. The only reason he doesn’t is because of his mental trauma, but if that ever went away this charming criminal could easily rank among the top.
3 Tomura Shigaraki: Decay
Obviously, Tomura Shigaraki, the leader of the League of Villains, was going to be somewhere on here. His Quirk, Decay, allows him to disintegrate anything he touches with all five fingers of either hand. That alone is a terrifying ability that allows Shigaraki to get past almost anyone.
But, what if his Quirk went through some new growth or change similar to Toga? If Class 1-A can train their Quirks and reach new heights, who’s to say Shigaraki can’t as well?
2 Kai Chisaki: Overhaul
Quite honestly, Chisaki’s Quirk Overhaul is an upgrade to Tomura’s Decay in almost every way, and here’s why. Kai Chisaki only has to touch his target with a single finger, rather than all five like Shigaraki. Kai can use his Quirk to kill someone then bring them back good-as-new, while the destruction and violence Decay causes are permanent. It’s a bit unfair to Tomura, but the villain known as Overhaul really has him beat in most departments, Quirk-wise. The only downside is Chisaki’s germaphobia. Truly, no one expected the stereotypical Anime Yakuza character to be such a clean freak.
1 All For One: The All For One Quirk
Was there any other choice but this one? All for One is the only criminal who can give All Might a run for his money, so of course, he’s the strongest villain around. The Quirk One for All only came into being because of All for One, after all. At the end of the day, All for One is the Quirk that beats every other Quirk out there, simply because it technically is every other Quirk out there. No matter the setting, the power to steal other powers will always reign supreme.
