Mechanics

The power begins only once blood has left the user's body. Exposed to open air, it answers completely: flow and movement both fall under the user's direction, and it can be hardened to lock an opponent in place. The Quirk also seems to carry a tolerance for blood loss at levels that would normally prove fatal.

Notable Users

Sekijiro Kan is the only known holder. To get large volumes into the air quickly he wears special gloves fed by tubes that run to points across his body, and those same gloves let him reabsorb the blood afterward.
