Hikage: As you know I keep a list of all my friends in order of how likely they are to betray me.
Banjo: Where am I on the list?
Hikage: Well I can’t tell you that because then you’ll quickly move up or down depending on your reaction.

Second: You are the love of my life, and I would do anything within reason to make you happy. Yoichi: I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep. Second: I said within reason, Yoichi. How about I murder that guy? Yoichi: So, murder is in reason, but proper self-care isn't? Second: Well, duh. What kind of question is that?

Second: The moon looks beautiful, doesn’t it? Third, looking at Second: Yeah… but do you know what’s more beautiful? Second and Third in unison: sighs Yoichi
AFO hot?
you tell me >:)
Está interesante la teoría.👀
In chapter 407 : Paranormal Orphan, at the first page, we see this.
"Before she knew it, those 'things' nested inside her womb and started draining life force."
Now, hear me out ... We know that, canonically OFA drains it's user's life force. And overload of Quirks makes one braindead (Nomu) or quite physically unstable if they don't "upgrade" their body strong enough to hold multiple quirks. But, OFA is the only quirk that canonically drains it's user's life force.
OFA is made of transfer (Yoichi's original ability)+ stockpile. Because the only thing the Stockpile quirk does, it stockpiles energy like a storage. Other functions is Yoichi's original quirk.
And if just like AFO, Yoichi also manifested his quirk at birth/ in his mother's womb. What if... Yoichi was the one how took the Shigaraki mother's life force and AFO took Shigaraki mother's quirk and Nutrients. Cause taking nutrients and taking life force ain't the same. What if that's also the reason Yoichi was able to survive at birth?... because ain't no way a newborn can survive just because its twin bro kept holding his hand tightly.
People: AFO killed Yoichi without hesitation or remorse! Yoichi was just a toy! He never really cared about him! He was born evil! So GLAD we finally have an evil villain that is just evil and doesn’t have a meaning!
AFO: spends 100+ years blaming Kudo for Yoichi’s death, heavily projecting to the point he kills all of Kudo’s family.
Embalms and carries around Yoichi’s hand for 100+ years. (He also refers to the hand as Yoichi in the present)
“Talks” to Yoichi in his head(this happens multiple times). Says he “needs”/“it’s all for nothing” without Yoichi.
Admits he hates thinking back on when Kudo snidely told him he killed Yoichi because it brings back all of the terrible memories(which would include Yoichi’s death and their horrible childhood. Also, see the last image for that too).
Says that all color has left the world after he heard Yoichi breaking into pieces; only a gaping hole of loss remains.
Screams at Deku not to look at him (though all he keeps saying is how he wants everyone to look at him) when Deku realizes he’s not a monster beyond understanding, not a demon lord, but just a very lonely man.
Begs to see Yoichi’s eyes, his face—you can’t go! Screams at Yoichi that he loves him more than anything, he’s hopeless without him—he’s nothing.
Horikoshi’s own words from the Da Vinci Magazine interview:
“By stripping away the things that the diabolical villain wears, I find that there are parts of him that I can empathize with as a human being. I’m going to look for it to see if it exists”
People: …nuh…nuh-uh!
All For One is obsessed with Abilities and taking them. Like a toddler, he's interested in things that are straight-forward, without much effort on his part. We see this when he spares Best Jeanist and his Quirk.
When he finds Quirks he's interested in, he wants them. Like when he "couldn't help" taking Ragdoll's Search. Below are just some examples of AFO wanting Quirks, and being fascinated by them
All for One has this interest in Quirks and taking them because that's the nature of his Quirk. You know who else was like this?
Himiko Toga.
All For One, like Himiko Toga, is driven by desires caused by the nature of his Quirk. They:
● are consumed and driven by desires and interests caused by their Quirks (stealing quirks VS blood)
● have yandere tendencies (AFO is possessive, Toga stabs for blood, yet sees blood as a form of love)
● both want something vital to a person (Quirks VS blood)
All For One's Quirk both gives and takes. But he's more focused on the taking part of it. He wants Quirks for himself. The nature of his Quirk naturally makes him want to possess things, and he literally names it "All For One". All For One person, instead of One For All.
If he focused on giving, history would've been different. But he was born with his Quirk, and as a baby, he's going to be self-centered and only seek for himself, his own convenience, and the world only exists exactly as he views it. That's just how babies are.
That self-centeredness would've combined with his Quirk's desires, evolving the "take" portion of his Quirk to something that drives him.
Himiko Toga, like other kids, likely awakened her Quirk when she was five. That would be why her parents only expressed shock in her like for blood when it showed with the bird; she was a kid at the time, and it was likely their first glimpse of the nature and effect of her Quirk.
All For One had his Quirk at birth. Toga got hers later, and thus would've had time to learn about the world first. Toga didn't completely fuse her Quirk with a baby's natural "I want and need", but there's enough self-centered awareness as a child to still want first.
I want to bring attention to these panels because they're definitely related. Look at the parallels of All For One and Toga.
Toga, after a talk about why and how she loves, because blood is so fascinating,
And Yoichi talking about his brother's way of using his power,
All For One could take, but he could also give. And yet, right before Yoichi narrates this, rather than something like Toga realizes,
All For One's first thought was he had to steal Yoichi back.
Like Toga before having a girls' talk with Ochako, both were only interested in taking for themselves. Giving never crossed their minds.
All For One only gave Quirks to make sure people stayed on his side. So he had pawns.
All For One's obsession with Quirks, and having possessions, only makes Yoichi [One For All] even more attractive: he's both a Quirk, and All For One's "first possession in this world".
All For One is basically like Himiko Toga pre-Ochako-talk, but never learned. He died because he got too greedy to win against Bakugo, but Toga died because she decided to give her everything to save the object of her affection.
(Idk if Toga actually is dead, but that's the current assumption after she says she'll give Ochako all her blood to save her)
All For One and Toga are foils to each other. Goodnight.
Sólo leí un par de capítulos, creo que lo voy a continuar.
So I may be a writer, but I am no artist. I can barely draw a stick man...
I just wanted to share this absolutely mind boggling piece from KeynoriamArt - this amazing artist collabbed with someone else on twitter and sent this to me a few years back. I've sadly lost touch with them now but really wanted to put this out there for people to admire the sheer talent of these artists.
This depicts a version of Gohan which I wrote, where he dies at the Cell Games and then is chosen by Whis to compete for the title of the next God of Destruction for Universe 7.
Behind Gohan are my OCs, whose names are based on Greek mythology. He competes with them over some years for the role of Junior Destroyer under Lord Beerus.

My fanfiction Son Gohan the Destroyer is now in its 44th Chapter, and so much has changed since this was created a few years back. LOOK AT THEM. They are so cool!

It's my headcanon that Kudou and Bruce were part of the resistance against Destro. This is the reason why Destro's army was destroyed.
Llevo desde que salió el trailer de Barbie esperando este, me siento feliz y realizada.
Duo holders, but make it the Barbie & Ken mugshot meme.
