Transmission (トランスミッション Toransumisshon?) is an Ultimate Move performed by Izuku Midoriya using the Gearshift Quirk.

Description[]

Izuku rushes toward his opponent and delivers several punches, with each successive punch increasing the speed of Gearshift, before sending his opponent flying. The increase in speed is labelled as "gears", with the gears being:

  • Low Gear (一速 (ロー) ?), the base speed that is activated upon using Transmission. This speed is demonstrated when Izuku uses Transmission on himself.[1]
  • Second Gear (ニ速 (セカンド) Sekando?)
  • Third Gear (三速 (サード) Sādo?)
  • Top Gear (四速 (トップ) Toppu?), the final and fastest speed.

Each punch of Transmission is so fast, the sound barrier is broken numerous times, causing the punch to be seen before it is heard.

Izuku first uses this move against "Tomura Shigaraki" during the Final War.[2]

Trivia[]

  • Izuku shifting this Ultimate Move like gears may be a reference to One Piece protagonist Monkey D. Luffy's abilities to shift gears, thanks to his Devil Fruit.
    • Furthermore, this may also be a reference to the transmission used in a car, given that it lets the user shift between multiple gears, similar to how a driver shifts gears while driving.
