Soccer
CharacterEmperor Yotsuura claims a Quirk that amounts to being very good with a ball. Soccer lets him weave a dribble through packed crowds while robbing them blind, then fire that same ball hard enough to flatten a person. Whether it qualifies as a Quirk at all remains an open question.
Overview
Soccer, given in Japanese as Sakkā, is credited to the Vigilantes villain Emperor Yotsuura. It sits in the Emitter category with a close-range classification, debuting in Chapter 13 of the spin-off manga and animated in Episode 7.
The entry comes with a caveat the series itself raises. Skepticism surrounds the idea that any of this constitutes a genuine superhuman ability rather than ordinary athletic skill dressed up as one.
Mechanics
Two effects are attributed to the power. The first is crowd work: Yotsuura keeps a ball under control at a professional level even while pushing through dense throngs of people, and none of that footwork interferes with the thefts he commits along the way.
The second is force. He can strike the ball with an output far past anything a human leg should produce, converting a piece of sports equipment into a projectile weapon.
His named technique is Emperor Shot, written as Enperā Shūto. Yotsuura boots the ball with such power that a person struck by it is launched off their feet.
