Afterimage Creation is the ability to leave behind images of oneself.

Overview

The user is able to create images of themselves, usually by moving at incredible speeds. This ability is often used in combat to mislead opponents as to the actual location of the user.

Sonic, by using his Four Shadows Burial and Ten Shadows Burial techniques, is able to create up to ten images of himself. When pitted against Sonic using the former technique, which generates only four afterimages, Genos was unable to keep track of the ninja's movements at all.

Through his Serious Side Hops technique, Saitama can leave behind countless afterimages of himself that makes it impossible for his opponents to tell his actual location. Upon witnessing this attack, Sonic was left utterly flabbergasted and he was quickly overwhelmed.

During his battle against Superalloy Darkshine, Garou was shown to create a flurry of afterimages of himself in an attempt to confuse the hero and attack him using a kick. Though Darkshine managed to see through his movements and punch the real one, knocking the Hero Hunter back.

Saitama creating countless afterimages with Serious Side Hops.
