Nomu

''This article is about the species referred to collectively as "Nomu." For the individual Nomu who assisted in the League of Villains's attack on the U.S.J., see Nomu (U.S.J.).''

Nomu are individuals who have had their bodies heavility modified by Doctor Ujiko in order to hold multiple Quirks. They act as mindless soldiers for the League of Villains.

Description
Sometimes referred to as Artificial Humans, Nomu are powerful monsters created when humans have their bodies altered in order to hold multiple Quirks from All For One. The aforementioned human experimentee ceases all brain function and requires commands from a superior in order to act.

It is currently unknown how exactly Nomu are produced. Doctor Ujiko and All For One possess several different laboratories that house these creatures.

U.S.J. Arc
The first Nomu (U.S.J.) appears alongside Tomura Shigaraki & Kurogiri during their assault on the U.S.J.. That Nomu proves to be incredibly powerful, easily subduing Eraser Head and even managing to contend with All Might.

This Nomu is defeated by All Might and arrested by the Police Force. Naomasa Tsukauchi and his colleagues investigate Nomu and analyze his DNA. They discover he was originally just a small-time thug that had his body modified to hold multiple Quirks. This helps Detective Tsukauchi connect the Nomu to All For One himself.

Vs. Hero Killer Arc
Once All For One has finished the development of six Nomus, Tomura Shigaraki asks for all of them, however All For One only grants him three. Tomura orders these three artificial humans to wreak havoc in Hosu City. One of the three artificial humans throws a pro hero into a driving train. Gran Torino then charges at the villain. Endeavor manages to defeat two artificial humans and Stain kills the third.

Forest Training Camp Arc
The Chainsaw Nomu is given to Dabi by Tomura to assist in the mission to capture Katsuki Bakugo. Alongside the other members of the Vanguard Action Squad it attacks the students.

Hideout Raid Arc
During Izuku Midoriya, Momo Yaoyorozu, Shoto Todoroki, Tenya Iida, and Eijiro Kirishima rescue operation to save Katsuki, they come across an abandoned warehouse, which housed a Nomu production plant. The warehouse was later destroyed by the second squad of the Hideout Raid Team, and all the Nomu inside were restrained. It is unknown what happened to them after the battle between All For One and All Might.

Pro Hero Arc
The advanced Nomu High-End summons nine white Nomus to aid him.

Meta Liberation Army Arc
Prior to the events of the Hero Billboard Chart JP, 12 Nomus were shown in cylindrical tanks in Daruma Ujiko's lab. The doctor describes these Nomus as "High-Ends", a new class of Nomus that are a step above the previous Nomus he had created.

Powers and Abilities
Each Artificial Human possess one or multiple Quirks; some like Nomu have two specific Quirks that were given to him specifically to counter All Might's. It is stated by Endeavor that black Artificial Humans all have fast regeneration and are stronger than the white ones.

Artificial Humans are brain dead due to the heavy experimentation and Quirk implantation performed on them (as seen in Nomu's case); this has caused the Artificial Humans to lose their speech, personality and response. The Artificial Humans only respond and take action through the orders of their superiors, as Nomu did not attempt to fight back from being restrained by the Police Force, nor did he respond to any question that the Police Force gave him.

Daruma Ujiko revealed that the different Artficial Humans are separated into 3 categories: low-end (the white Artificial Humans), mid-end (the black Artificial Human), and high-end (the intelligent (black) Artificial Humans).

Trivia

 * Horikoshi has hinted that the Flying Nomu from the Hosu Incident may be Katsuki and Izuku's winged childhood friend, Tsubasa.
