Barrier

Rendered Baria in Japanese, this close-range Emitter Quirk belongs to Hekiji Tengai. Chapter 142 introduces it and Episode 72 carries it into the anime.

The output is a dome-shaped telekinetic shell that forms around its owner.

Toughness is the headline. Taishiro Toyomitsu likens a punch against it to striking steel. Speed backs that up: Hekiji can raise a shell fast enough to beat out Kendo Rappa mid-swing with Strongarm.

He chooses the radius as well. At one point the dome covers Rappa alongside himself, and at another it wraps him alone, so the size answers to him. Whether a wider shell trades away durability has never been established.

Three limits define it. Defense is all it does, with no offensive application whatsoever. Hekiji always occupies the center, so nothing beyond his own range can be shielded. And the shells do break under enough force, while a Hekiji who has been worn down or hurt badly enough loses the ability to raise fresh ones at all.

Hekiji Tengai is the only known holder. His role in combat follows directly from the Quirk's shape: he stands at the middle of a protected space and denies entry while allies such as Kendo Rappa operate inside it, which forced the Heroes to break him personally before anything else could proceed.
