Big Monkey
CharacterBig Monkey is a Transformation Quirk from My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, held by Rikiya Eno. Every recorded use of it happens while he is dosed with Trigger, the drug that inflates Quirk output, which leaves its baseline capacity outside that chemical boost entirely unrecorded.
Overview
Big Monkey belongs to Rikiya Eno and operates at melee range. It is classified as a Transformation Quirk, and it debuts in Chapter 21 of the My Hero Academia: Vigilantes manga.
Mechanics
While Trigger is running through him, Rikiya swells into an enormous ape. Since that drugged state is the only condition in which the power has ever been observed, what the transformation amounts to without the enhancement remains unknown.
