History Manga / MyHeroAcademiaVigilantes

* RippedFromTheHeadlines: One of the final scenes in the manga features a plane above New York City that has lost both its engines and is being forced to make an emergency landing in the Hudson River. This is a clear reference to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US_Airways_Flight_1549 Us Airways Flight 1549]], which made such a landing after a case of double engine failure. The scene from inside the cabin also mirrors the event as told in the movie adaptation of the events, ''Film/{{Sully}}''. [[spoiler:The major difference is that the plane's descent is slowed with Koichi's help as the pro hero, Skycrawler.]]

* GoryDistractionShot: Appears quite a lot, particurly when Stendhal or Number 6 is involved.

* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Koichi's Sliding Quirk seems relatively mundane; a simple mobility Quirk that requires three of his limbs to touch the ground if he wants to get anywhere... except that it enables him to climb walls at the speed of a bicycle, and allows him to take sharp turns that not even the pro hero Ingenium can manage. On top of that, [[spoiler:Chapter 18 shows that he doesn't have to be on a solid surface to glide. Koichi can outright ''fly'' with his quirk. This part of his power was suppressed [[MamaBear due to his mother being concerned he'd fly out the window and hurt himself as a baby.]]]]

* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Koichi mentions he wanted to be a registered hero but figures his Quirk was unsuitable for it. [[spoiler: At least, that's what we were initially told. In actuality, he just never reached the hero exam in time due to rescuing a young Pop☆Step on the way there.]]
