Known as Soji the Hammer, this executive of the Abegawa Tenchu Kai paired a sledgehammer with a Quirk that produced lightning, and the nickname was earned rather than given. He is one of four yakuza cut down in a single stroke when the vigilante Stendhal walked into their headquarters alone.
Heavy muscle carried the impression he left, under a beard and a head of black hair. Inked on his left shoulder was the kanji 雷, meaning thunder. His clothing read as workwear, closer to a construction site than a criminal organization, and his helmet carried winged patterns down the sides.
Unnamed Lightning Quirk: Soji could produce lightning at will.
He did not rely on the Quirk by itself. A hammer went everywhere with him, and running his power through the weapon is what gave him the name he fought under.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
A lone attacker hit the Abegawa Tenchu Kai's headquarters one day: Stendhal, the vigilante otherwise known as Chizome Akaguro. Four executives were on hand, and each brought their Quirk up immediately.
Soji went in with Tetsu and Haruhisa in a coordinated rush, forcing Stendhal to leap clear of the incoming attacks, while Rojiya Yonenaga followed up by hurling a manhole cover at him with considerable force. None of it mattered. Stendhal tasted the blood he had drawn from all four, paralyzed them with Bloodcurdle, and finished every one of them off with a single slash.
The character is built out of nods to Marvel's Thor. The wing shapes on his helmet recall Thor's own, the sledgehammer channelling lightning stands in for Mjolnir, the 宗 that opens his name is voiced the same as the Japanese rendering of Thor as Sō, and the thunder kanji on his shoulder points at the God of Thunder outright.
Soji, nicknamed Soji the Hammer, is an executive of the Abegawa Tenchu Kai yakuza gang in My Hero Academia: Vigilantes who wields a lightning Quirk through a sledgehammer.
Soji has an unnamed lightning Quirk that lets him generate electricity at will, which he channels through the hammer he carries into battle.
Soji is killed when the vigilante Stendhal, Chizome Akaguro, attacks the Abegawa Tenchu Kai's headquarters alone, tasting the blood he draws from Soji and three other executives to paralyze them with Bloodcurdle before finishing each of them off with a single slash.
Yes, Soji is designed as a nod to Marvel's Thor. His helmet carries wing shapes like Thor's, his lightning channeling sledgehammer echoes Mjolnir, and the kanji for thunder tattooed on his shoulder points directly at the God of Thunder.
Soji fights alongside fellow executives Tetsu, Haruhisa, and Rojiya Yonenaga, all of whom attack Stendhal together and are defeated in the same encounter.
