Random Most Underrated Quirks From 'My Hero Academia' (24 items)

• 

  (#3) Compress - Atsuhiro Sako

  Atsuhiro Sako is only seen using his quirk, Compress, for a singular purpose: compressing Bakugo into a tiny marble shape so he can easily kidnap him, while ensuring he remains unharmed. While this is undoubtedly useful for his villainous purposes, it's also great for things like carrying heavy weaponry, or unconscious or injured comrades.

  Outside of fighting, it's great for carrying heavy objects. With Compress, one could technically carry the entire contents of their house in a single bag, making moving a breeze.

  (#4) Glamour - Camie Utsushimi

  You might not expect a quirk called Glamour to do what Camie's quirk does, but its functionality is kind of incredible. She can create large and small-scale illusions. She could, for example, trick an opponent into thinking their environment is different than it actually is and use their confusion to sneak up on them.

  Outside of battle, Camie's quirk has virtually unlimited utility. She could create A+ presentations in her history class, or make alternate endings to her favorite TV shows.

  (#1) Heal - Chiyo Shuzenji

  Chiyo, the school nurse at UA High School, has a quirk that's easy to overlook, but is actually essential if the whole school isn't going to end up dead. Her quirk, Heal, engages a target's immune system to help them heal rapidly from injuries that might otherwise take months to recover from, or might never heal at all.

  The only drawback is how it works. She essentially uses the body's own resources to heal the injury. If the target person isn't strong enough to withstand the healing process, it might need to be spread out over multiple sessions. Still, Chiyo's abilities are the reason Izuku makes it past breaking his arms the first time he uses his quirk.

  Without her, he would miss months of hero training while recovering.

  (#9) IQ - Saiko Intelli

  Saiko Intelli is arrogant about her quirk, but she has good reason. By merely taking a sip of tea, Saiko is able to temporarily boost her intelligence dramatically. The brand of tea determines the extent of the boost. This allows her to figure out nearly any problem, from complex math to predicting her opponent's movements.

  IQ doesn't allow her to make flawless predictions every single time – she's not psychic – but it does allow her to make some good guesses.

  (#6) Earphone Jack - Kyoka Jiro

  Earphone Jack is a unique quirk that allows Jiro to use protrusions from her ears as hearing devices (or more colloquially, earphone jacks). She can use these to plug into any solid object, amplifying sound so she can hear what’s going on in places she might otherwise be excluded from.

  This saves her a bundle of money on headphones, and it also makes her one of the best spies in the My Hero Academia universe. Jiro doesn’t have to be in the same room as the person she’s listening in on, which means she can stay safe while undercover. What’s more, she can wield her earphone jacks as electrified whips, making them a powerful offensive tool.

  (#16) Telepath - Mandalay

  Mandalay, one of the members of the Wild, Wild Pussycats, possesses the quirk, Telepath. She's able to communicate with multiple people through thought. This is a perfect quirk for reconnaissance or rescue missions as she can send necessary information to others without the enemy's knowledge. Plus, she can use her telepathy to distract and lower the guards of her opponents.
