ArticleSource revision

Moko Tamashi[1] is a civilian, known for being the last person All Might saved before his retirement.

Appearance#

Moko is a young woman with brown eyes, and shoulder length hair of the same color. She has scars on both of her legs due to her injuries from the Kamino Incident.

Personality#

Not much is known about Moko's personality, but she is shown to be grateful towards All Might for having saved her during the Kamino Incident. Unlike many other people, her belief in Heroes hasn't been damaged by the events of the Paranormal Liberation War. As revealed by Stain, she has left every day in order to clean the vandalism from All Might's statue, despite putting herself in danger, showing that she still has faith in him and the other heroes.

Synopsis#

Hideout Raid Arc#

Moko was caught in the middle of All Might and All For One's rematch, being stuck in the rubble of a destroyed building. All For One prepares to strike her with an air blast, but All Might endures it to protect her. This action results in All Might reverting to his normal form, exposing it to the world. Despite this, she is one of the many people who call out to him to keep fighting.[2]

Shortly after this, the Heroes come to assist All Might, and she is rescued and evacuated by Tiger.[3]

Dark Hero Arc#

Following the Paranormal Liberation War and the collapse of society, Moko is seen during Stain and All Might's meeting in Kamino, Yokohama, where the Hero Killer rushes them both to hide behind a chunk of ice. She complains that some people put up the "I am not here" sign on All Might's statue again, asking whether people have had enough of defacing it by now. She uses her Quirk to get up there and remove the sign, and then begins cleaning the statue.

Stain reveals that Moko has been coming every day in order to clean the vandalism from the statue, saying that she's likely staying at an evacuation shelter nearby and is cleaning the statue in order to keep the peace there. All Might is confused as to why she'd put herself in danger just for that and asks who she is. Stain reveals Moko to be the last person that All Might saved during the Kamino Incident, showing him that she along with many others still believe in him and the other heroes, and that All Might's legacy still continues despite his retirement. After Stain leaves All Might with the information he took from Tartarus, Moko notes that the rain has stopped.[4]

Final War Arc#

As Moko continues to stay at the evacuation center, she watches the live broadcast of the Final War between all of Japan's remaining Heroes and an army of villains led by All For One. She watched the battle between Izuku Midoriya and Tomura Shigaraki at Mt. Fuji where reinforcements from an army of heroes arrive to provide support.[5] The villain unleashed hordes of Quirk attack all over the battlefield, blasting away every Hero who gets in his way, but they all keep countering against his attacks. As Izuku makes his way through the horde of Quirks while the Heroes protect him from incoming attacks, Moko shouts at Izuku to "do your best".[6]

Abilities#

Quirk#

Unnamed Mass-Generation Quirk: Moko's Quirk seems to allow her to expand an unknown spherical mass from the bottoms of her feet. It appears she can create more spheres on top of the ones she's already made. She can use this power to help her reach high places. Whether or not she is limited to creating it just from her feet or not is unknown.
