Tidal Bore
CharacterBig Red Dot empties enormous volumes of water out of his mouth, enough force behind it to hoist a Trigger Bomb off the ground. The Pro Hero's Quirk debuted in World Heroes' Mission, and it fires whether he intends it or not: the sight of his favorite food floods everything around him.
Overview
Tidal Bore, written in Japanese as Dai Kaishō, is the Quirk of the Pro Hero Big Red Dot. It is an Emitter type of long range, first seen in the film My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission.
Mechanics
Water pours from the bearer's mouth in large quantity. Real strength travels with it, since Big Red Dot can lift a Trigger Bomb clean off the ground using nothing else. His control is not absolute: encountering the food he likes best sets the Quirk going and drowns his surroundings in a flood.
