Todays quirk analysis is on Momo!
Analysis following canon starts here <3
Creation is a quirk that allows Momo to materialize/create (as the name implies) different non-living objects as long as she understands the atomic configuration of the object. She creates things by breaking down her body fat at a molecular level, which will then be re-used as material for her to shape into objects with her quirk.
The process that she has to go through to create things are:
-imagining the parts
-imagine the materials
-imagine the assembling process
-finally, imagining the coating
Momo can also change the materials of the objects she makes to give them special properties. She can also only half-way produce something, leaving it to protrude from her body.
Strengths
Momos quirk is very versatile and allows her to both be on the defense and offense. She also has one of the best quirks for working with a team, allowing her to produce things to help her teammates as a whole and individually.
Due to Momos high intelligence and quick thinking she is able to create plans almost any challenge she faces.
Weaknesses
Momo requires time to make things and so if she is continually attacked by her opponent she has no time to think and go on the offense.
What Momo makes depends on both the complexity and size of the object as well as the amount of fat lipids in her body. The more complex of an object, the more complex the item is, the more fat lipids she expends.
Momo ends up weakened if she doesn't have enough fat stored up to create things.
In order to create things she must understand it at an atomic level and so she isn't able to create things she doesn't understand at an atomic level.
Special moves
Yaoyorozu's Lucky Bag: Creating a cannon, Momo makes and shoots a bag that is filled with tools for her allies to use.
All the info above can be found on Momos wiki page :)
Questions
What is the biggest item Momo has ever created? The most complex item she has ever made? Does her body type change when she uses her quirk and does that cause her to have to constantly have clothing in all sizes?
Analysis following my own theory starts here !!
My personal theory is that her quirk is actually just an advanced metabolism. The way she trains her quirk in canon is much more aligned with the metabolism idea. During the training camp arch she continually eats while making things. After eating things they don't turn directly into fat lipids, making it much more likely she's using the energy from the food than the fat lipids.
There is also no noticeable change in her body type when using her quirk. I would think that expending your fat lipids to create things would make a change in your body type, so the lack of a body type change makes me think that her quirk is an advanced metabolism.
All of the theories above would allow her to make a drastic change in her hero costume, because she wouldn't need as large of a space create things. I'll probably touch on that during another rant, maybe during the support item saga :v
TLDR: A quick summary of Momos quirk and her special moves, as well as how I think her quirk would actually work.
I somehow came across your blog and it was a blast from the past! I used to be one of the original Monodeku fic writers (I think I unironically posted the first or second fic focused exclusively on them) and it’s so nice to see people who still like them! :D I haven’t been into BNHA in foreveeeer, I hope Monoma has gotten more screentime since then
I smiled sm when I read this!! Being noticed by one of the first monodeku ao3 authors is so fun!!
Monodeku is probably my favorite bnha ship <3 they're actually what got me to start posting on Tumblr!
I've read through their tag on AO3 so many times and all of the fics are good! Honestly I just think anything with monodeku is brilliant :)
And Monoma HAS gotten so much more screentime! Still not as much as I would like (I love monoma so much.) But he got a whole backstory scene and he plays a big part in more recent things!!
Imagine some kid in flip flops and jorts overthrowing your criminal empire with a super soaker
You get sleep paralysis very often. Although this seems horrible to most, you don’t mind it, in fact you welcome it. And that’s because your sleep paralysis demon is actually very nice and sweet.
Kirishima: For homework I've got to make one of those diagrams that use circles Tokoyami: Venn Kirishima: Not sure, I'll probably do it after dinner Tokoyami: No. Venn diagram Kirishima: I just told you when I'm making it
I love this monodeku headcannon im abt to talk about but i dont think ive ever actually posted it on here so,, here we go.
monoma has an interest in quirks like izuku does (its one of his special interests, i hc him as autistic).
like he has a VERY organized journal with notes for like A LOT of different people and their quirks (probably color coded and segmented into groups (pro heros, different classes like 1-b and 1-a ect))
I actually had this idea before i shipped monodeku, and this headcanon is really what interested me in their dynamic in the first place (so it has a special little place in my heart)
I feel like that this hc makes sense because it would be super useful for him in battle, especially as a pro hero (his prior knowledge on other pros quirks would make it easier for him to work with them in the future), and that he might just be drawn naturally to learning about quirks because of his quirk.
but i think that the main way monoma and izuku would connect is their mutual interests in quirks and RAAAUGGH i just love them so much.
once monoma stopped like refusing to acknowledge their shared interest and be even a little bit friendly to izuku, they started journaling together and like quirk theorizing and stuff.
This one is also super short but!! Its the last of the hero costume saga! I'll be moving onto quirk theory next :)
Todays rant is the 0.5 of the positive rants. Its about Eraserhead or Aizawa!
The only real issues I have with his hero costume are his support item and the fact that he doesnt put his hair up. The support item one will come later when I do the support item saga so I'll start with the hair!
His hair is the biggest give away of when he is using his quirk so its very illogical of him to have long hair. He could cut it short and then bam! No one would be able to tell! Orrrr, if he wanted to keep it long he could just put it in a bun and then nobody would be able to tell!
There are so many simple solutions and it just bugs me that he doesnt put his hair up.
I, however, do think his overall hero costume is great for similar reasons to Tokoyami !
TLDR: Aizawa has a great hero costume that really only needs small changes to be perfect.
I just I like them a lot.
