The quirks explained in this video are below:
- ZOMBIE VIRUS Quirk (possessed by Romero Fujimi)
- CHIMERA Quirk (CHIMERA)
- EAGLE Quirk (Takahiro aka the 'original' HAWKS)
- IQ Quirk ( Saiko Intelli)
- WHOLE BODY LENS (Taneo Tokuda)
- SPOTTED SEAL (Selkie)
- GOOD EAR (Sirius)
- MUMMIFICATION (Mummy from Heroes Rising)
- SWEAT FLASHBANG QUIRK (Dadan Tadan)
- ELECTRICITY GENERATION (Electoplant)

starting in first place we have zombie virus, which is an ability that appeared in the BNHA Training of the Dead OVA. In that episode class 1a took part in a survival exercise alongside four students from another academy and among them was this Bakugo type character called Fujimi who ended up clashing with the real bakugo multiple times. His Zombie Virus quirk was by far the most interesting out of his classmates as it enables him to produce a pink gas from his body, that zombifies anyone who breathes it in. For a period of time the people infected become indestructible but lose all brain activity, to the point where they have no control over their quirks and have been shown to move in random ways.

Next up is chimera, who is a villain that had a quirk of the same name during the Heroes Rising movie. One the things that makes this power great is that it’s essentially it’s a hybrid between the three main types of quirks, those being mutant, emitter and transformation types.

In third place is the quirk known as eagle but the most the most interesting about it is not the power itself but rather the backstory surrounding the character. The bird person in question is called Takahiro and according to Horikoshi, he was originally meant to be the number 2 hero in Japan. Takahiro is an anime original character given that his first appearance in the my hero universe came in the two heroes movie and to this day he’s yet to make an appearance in the actual manga. That being said, in volume 20 Horikoshi explained that Takahiro is from a previous manga he had written called Omagadoki Zoo and he was 100% going to use this design for the character we now know as Hawks.

Moving on we have the IQ quirk used by Saiko Intelli, who is a second year student that appeared during the provisional licence exam. Intelli is from a hero academy that appears to be a female only school and her regular IQ score is 150, way ahead of the average in Japan which is 104. By drinking tea her quirk allows her to temporarily multiply her IQ and according to present mic’s description, different brands of tea have different effects on how much smarter she becomes. From what we saw in the episode in only takes a sip for her power to activate and once that’s done she begin forming complex strategies in her head to deal with whoever she’s up against.

In 5th place is the transformation quirk known as Whole Body lens that was used by this journalist who appeared during the filler in season 4. The power allows him to produce an unlimited amount of camera lenses anywhere on his body, which as you would expect are able to take pictures. The images taken are presumably stored in his brain like an SD card but when he wants to he can materialise the pictures by printing them out of his chest. As we can see here the lenses are not all the same as they come in different shapes and sizes, so if he really tried who knows how big they could actually go. Although this is purely my speculation, I feel like whole body lens is a more limited version of Momo’s creation quirk, where he can convert the lipids in his body into camera lenses and pictures but nothing else.

Up next is spotted seal which is a quirk used by Selkie, who is one of the few anime original characters to make multiple appearances and one of the few heroes that works almost exclusively on the water.

Lemme know your fav anime original quirks down below! Wish I could’ve included some quirks from World heroes mission but maybe they can appear in a future top 10 after the movie comes out

[Jodipo]

My favorite has to be Chimera. At first it was a cool mutant Quirk that makes you an animal hybrid, but then it turns out you can breathe fire like a dragon. Such an awesome and powerful Quirk.

[rainbowdragon]

The IQ quirk has to be my favourite original quirk because I like how the user gains information depending on what type of tea they drink and has potential for getting jobs or passing exams.

[omnid.slayer]

The zombiefication quirk has so much potential behind it..
It is actually the same as shinso's (Brainwash) on the regard that they are both considered villain suited quirks used by heroes..

[omnid.slayer]

Chimera has one of the greatest designs in the story..
And his quirk is truly fascinating

[jonbaker]

I think Hawks' design change was a great idea. I'm glad it worked out that way. Otherwise there would have been too many bird-headed people in MHA and it woulda been kinda weird. Hawks being a handsome dude and more based on Icarus is much more poetic and intriguing

[jackthegeat]

For the zombie virus, I think it would be very helpful in rescue, and civilian protection. The infected become *INDESTRUCTIBLE*, so if villains are threatening civilians, spray the civilians and they can’t be hurt. If he uses a tool that shoots some kind of muzzle onto the infected individuals, he can make it so they can’t infect anyone else too.

[pas-kal]

I love the camera quirk - If I was in MHA I would love to have a gun-variant of that quirk

[cds]

This has probably already been said, but Fujumi should make his hero costume looking like a Zombie, as his zombies overlook people who look like one, illustrated by All Might in his weakened state.

[anienk]

I really feel like the quirk : 'Chart' from the character Kashiko Sekigai is a very useful one, she made her appearence in the "Training Of The Dead" episode, this quirk alows her to track her enemies she also knows how far away they are and if they are alive. It could have been extreamly useful in the war arc.

[notesmaker]

The journalist was my favourite as he seemed like Horikoshi's self-portraited character.

[HelenaSan]

Saiko inteli is the cutest MHA girl~ 🥰

[MatildyMatilduh]

I always loved Saiko Intelli's design and her quirk is really useful in a lot of situations, I wish we could see more of her.

[GJames-Legend]

If you ever do another my hero academia what if video I have some suggestions.

1. What if deku trained his body before meeting all might.

2. What if all might never got injured and lost his power.

3. What if shigaraki was a hero.

4. What if hawks was a villain.

5. What if nana shimira was still alive.

6. What if bakugou was never kidnapped.

[hujijuni]

Selkie isn't actually a anime original. He was first mentioned in CH 126 of the manga and then debuted in CH 259.

[reigningrockets]

Thats really interesting about Hawks! It would definitely make the similarities and connection between Hawks and Tokoyami more evident since i never really got why Hawks called himself a bird... He's more of an angel than a bird but having him be actually a bird mutant would have made their mentor/mentee relationship stronger. Although I still adore the relationship between the two of them now.

[birdmcturd]

The zombie virus quirk could easily be used to stop a villain without killing them or, if someone is about to die from say debris a way to make them indestructible

[ploppman]

Throughout the episode I thought the journalist's quirk was that he could take pictures with his left eye. Mainly because it looks a little different.
Then at the end of the episode he's like "nope, I can make cameras appear anywhere on my body!"

[executerz]

Hlrikoshi made the MOST PERFECT DECISION to change Hawk's design its soo cool and lovable

[ahrrtuu]

My favorite anime original quirks, until now, are Air Wall, Object Gigantification and Paralysis
