Vibration Detection
CharacterBlinded by All Might, All For One rebuilt his senses out of stolen parts. This unnamed Quirk reads the faint tremors moving through a space and hands its owner a picture of the world without any need for eyes.
Overview
The series never gives this ability a title, so Vibration Detection is a conjectural label applied for convenience. It is an Emitter Quirk of medium range, taken by All For One from a person whose identity is never revealed. Readers meet it in Chapter 356, adapted in Episode 148.
Mechanics
The power picks up faint vibrations rippling through the surrounding area and translates them into awareness. The result works much like echolocation: rather than seeing a room, the user feels its contents through the disturbances they create, which is enough to perceive the space and everything moving in it.
Notable Users
All For One is the only known holder aside from the anonymous original. He collected it as part of a deliberate rebuild after All Might's victory cost him his sight, stacking it alongside other sensory abilities such as Infrared so that the combination could stand in for the eyes he no longer had.
