Electrification (
Description
Electrification gives Denki the ability to charge in electricity and emit it out of his body as a sort of protective aura that electrocutes anyone through contact.
Denki discharging electricity.
When using his Quirk, Denki gains a defense mechanism that shocks those who touch him, leaving them slightly paralyzed. If he emits enough electricity, it automatically discharges in all directions, shocking anyone close to him, regardless of contact. Due to this being a light-generating Quirk, it has a natural advantage against Fumikage's Dark Shadow.
If Electrification is strong enough, the user can do damage beyond simple electrocution, as demonstrated by and Electric villain at the U.S.J..
Weaknesses
It is possible to protect oneself from the electricity produced from this Quirk through insulation material. This also makes the user vulnerable to Quirks that don't conduct electricity like Vines or even other electric-type Quirks.
Usage
Denki Kaminari
Due to the volatile nature of Electrification, Denki is not capable of directing the energy he releases, putting any allies at risk should they be near him if he unleashes his power, so he frequently holds back in combat. Thanks to the efforts of Mei Hatsume and her teacher Power Loader, however, Denki's costume has received an extra piece of equipment called Pointer & Shooter that allows him to fire projectiles which can stick themselves to surfaces and attract his released electricity, shocking only those within a direct line between them and Denki.

Denki with his brain short-circuited.
In situations of extreme risk, Denki can sometimes panic and thoughtlessly discharge in self-defense. If he exceeds his wattage limit, Denki short-circuits his own brain, turning himself dumb for a one-hour period and being unable to activate his Quirk, or even do anything for that matter, until he recovers, although he does appear to retain minimal awareness of his surroundings.[1] In this state, he becomes harmless and thus easier to defeat, capture or hold hostage.
Denki can also use his electricity to activate or charge electronics, like the radio headset he uses in his hero costume or the batteries of various electric devices, effectively replacing traditional sources of energy. Kyoka Jiro once commented that, because of this, Quirks like Electrification are highly valued in the job market.
As part of his training, Denki ran his currents of electricity through a high capacity battery so he can handle larger amounts of electricity
Unnamed Electric Villain
An electric-type villain takes Denki hostage.
At the U.S.J., there was an villain hid underground and was able to resist Denki's electricity with his own Electrification. He took the short-circuited Stun Gun Hero hostage, and threatened to kill him with his own electricity, had it not been for the intervention of Snipe and the rest of the U.A. High School reinforcements.
Named Super Moves
- Indiscriminate Discharge 1,300,000 Volts (
無 差 別 放 電 130万 V Musabetsu Hōden 130-man Boruto?): Denki releases a large amount of electricity to shock everyone near him. This move was first used against members of the League of Villains.- Indiscriminate Discharge 2 Million Volts: Denki is capable of increasing the output of his Indiscriminate Discharge to 2 million volts, though this causes his brain to short circuit faster.
