Toho
CharacterToho makes Godzillo a kaiju in the flesh: reptilian, enormous, and immensely strong, with no transformation involved. The Mutant Quirk debuted in Two Heroes, and its name nods at the studio behind both the My Hero Academia anime and Godzilla himself.
Overview
Toho is the Quirk of the Pro Hero Godzillo. It is classified Mutant with no applicable range, and it first appeared in the film My Hero Academia: Two Heroes.
Mechanics
Whoever carries this Quirk simply is a kaiju. The bearer takes on reptilian features, stands at enormous size, and possesses strength to match that frame. Nothing needs activating and nothing switches off, because the physiology itself is the ability.
Notable Users
Godzillo is the only known bearer. The name points at Toho, the studio that co-produces and also distributes the My Hero Academia anime, its films and its OVAs, and that owns the Godzilla franchise outright. Ryuichi Gojiyama's Kaiju Quirk covers neighboring ground, but the two differ in kind: Kaiju turns its user into a monster, while Toho means the body was always one.
