    Before All Might inherited One For All, it belonged to his teacher, Nana Shimura. While she isn't really seen using it, we do know that she successfully mastered it, and could stockpile huge amounts of power and unleash it on her foes. Besides One For All, she could also use a quirk called Float that let her, well, float.

    Though Eri is a little girl who doesn't have great control over her quirk, it's an incredible one with a ton of potential. Rewind lets her turn back time on anything she touches. This can reverse wounds and other physical problems, saving people's lives. But it can also be incredibly destructive, since she can roll back someone's age to the point where they no longer exist.

    Mirko

    If the criteria for this list was leg power alone, Rumi Usagiyama - also known as Mirko - would be at the top of this list. Her quirk, Rabbit, gives her many of the traits of an actual rabbit. In her case, this manifests as extremely powerful kicks that can send her opponents flying, and even send shockwaves through the ground.

    Nejire Hado is one of the Big Three at UA High School. While she doesn't get as much attention as Mirio or Tamaki, she's not to be trifled with. Her quirk, Wave Motion, lets her convert her own energy into powerful shockwaves that blast from her hands. Its effectiveness depends on her energy levels and physical strength, which are substantial.

    Momo is considered one of the top tier students at UA High school - in fact, she's one of the few who got in by recommendation rather than by taking a test. Her strength lies in her quirk, Creation, which lets her convert her fat cells into any non-living material she wants, including huge weapons like cannons.

    Himiko Toga

    Himiko Toga is one of the more frightening members of the League of Villains. Her quirk, Transform, lets her transform into anyone whose blood she consumes. That's probably why she's so obsessed with cutting the people she likes, and why she got so good at using a knife in combat.
