Blast
CharacterBlast is the Emitter Quirk of the Pro Hero Sensoji from My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, pouring out rapid, heavy bursts of energy. Its own muzzle flash is the problem, blinding him mid-volley, a flaw ultimately solved by something as ordinary as a pair of shades.
Overview
Blast is a long-range Emitter Quirk belonging to Sensoji. It is introduced in Chapter 60 of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes and appears in Episode 19 of the Vigilantes anime.
Mechanics
The user fires off continuous energy bursts at a very quick tempo. Where the energy naturally leaves Sensoji's body has never been documented; his Hero costume gathers it at his hands and channels the discharge out through both hands and legs. The shots land hard and carry a ton of stopping power, which makes the Quirk an ideal answer to most villains.
Glare is the drawback. Every discharge throws a flash bright enough to blind the wielder for a moment, ruining his aim and scattering his shots at unpredictable range. The remedy proved trivial: Sensoji wears shades to shield his eyes, which keeps the Quirk from blinding him and hands him a major boost in accuracy.
