Acidman

ArticleSource revision

Acidman is an Ultimate Move performed by Pinky using the Acid Quirk.

Description#

After increasing the viscosity of her Quirk, Pinky generates a large amount of acid that takes a vaguely anthropomorphic form that covers her entire body. This technique has defensive properties, since attacks against Mina will be dissolved by the powerful acid that protects her.[1]

Pinky is able to use this move on others, showcased when she used this on Ingenium during Class 1-A's fight to bring Deku back to U.A.[2]

Pinky stated that she was inspired by Red Riot's Unbreakable to create this Ultimate Move.[3]

Alma: After increasing the acidity of her Quirk to the maximum, Pinky flings her Acidman at an opponent.[4]

Trivia#

  • This move's name is inspired by the Japanese rock band, Acidman, whose music Kohei Horikoshi loved listening to since he was in high school.[5]
