|| HELLOOOOO ||
|| I forgot to mention All Might in this analysis/theory! I'm so sorry peopleee!!! ||
|| All Might is also one of the biologically quirkless characters we know of! ||
|| And most likely his parents were quirkless too ||
|| And since Horikoshi apparently doesn't like dads, we only get small glimpses of his mother ||
|| And to be honest, she was very pretty and looked very kind, but as we already know, most likely some thief/villain killed her (Since All Might himself mentions it) ||
|| Because Horikoshi only draws All Might with his mother when he, like, 5/7? (Maybe?), it is most likely that she died when he was still young. ||
|| But I'm already digressing- The point is that I'm basically going to include him in this as well, since I forgot to mention him in the past post... Okay that was it byeeee ||
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
||↓ Following this post of here ↓||
|| Something that impresses me a lot about the world of MHA is that no one has questioned how Izuku can be quirkless if both of his parents have a quirk (I mean, sure, no one asks Izuku about his father, but at least Mitsuki Bakugou should know something about that man, i mean, she IS inko's best friend, at least once she had to think this stuff through and be like: "Wait, something doesn't seem right here-") ||
|| I mean, the only quirkless characters from birth we've seen apart from Izuku are Aoyama and Melissa! ||
|| But for both there is an explanation for why they are quirkless! ||
|| With Aoyama we know that both of his parents are quirkless, sooo is clear why Aoyama is quirkless, since he inherited that from his parents. ||
|| With Melissa is a similar case, the only thing that differentiates her from Aoyama's case is that she has a father with a quirk, which increases the chances of her being born with one, but as I theorize, her mother on the other hand was most likely quirkless, which made Melissa that slim chance of inheriting that gene. ||
|| Because according to the mha logic, the quirkless gene is somewhat rare, which means the quirk gene is a dominant gene (as the post above says) ||
|| So, in the case of Izuku, who has TWO PARENTS WITH QUIRKS (Inko with "attracting small objects" and Hisashi with "breathing fire") it is rare that he ended up quirkless, of course his parents could be carriers of the quirkless gene, but as I said, the quirk gene is dominant, and Izuku being from the 5th generation only makes the chances of that quirkless gene affecting 5% or so if both parents have a quirk (I mean, please, at least for Aoyama and Melissa it's understandable, it has an explanation, but for Izuku?) ||
|| As I said, Inko and Hisashi could be carriers of the gene, but since we don't know anything about the grandparents of any of the children in class 1A, we won't have an answer about that. (↓ Here is an example of the biology of inheritance, so you can keep the focus and not get lost 10 times trying to understand this like I did- ↓) ||
|| As we can see, Izuku would be the "Affected Offspring" in this case, and as you can see, even if he got a quirk, he would still carry the quirkless gene, since it is also rare to be born like the "Unaffected Offspring" ||
|| But, if we go by the "Dad For One Theory" side, we have a man who was born in the first era of quirks, an era in which the dominant gene was the quirkless gene, see where I'm going? ||
|| All For One, being from the first generation, gives him more chances of inheriting the quirkless gene and if Inko is also a carrier of this gene even if it is recessive, thanks to Afo's genetics it will be inherited ||
|| well that was all (Sorry for not having made theories lately, it's just that we've already finished the manga and there's no more content.) byeee ||

|| If you look closely ||
|| The one that's probably Inko's is white, while Izuku's is a combination! ||
|| In its entirety, is white, yes, but it has black spots, representing Hisashi/Afo ||
(Maybe it's a silly theory)
The three umbrellas were there from the beginning.
But their style has changed.
That style of umbrellas could also be related if the end of mha is really Izuku's imagination or illusion.
Either Horikoshi did it on purpose or he forgot what umbrellas he drew at the beginning of the manga. (But he didn't forget that there were three umbrellas here.)
If I focus on the dfo theory, the black umbrella would definitely belong to the AFO.
The handle of the umbrella agrees.
However, in the manga, the umbrella looks gray and not exactly black. But in the anime, the umbrella is black.
And by the time Afo found Tenko, surely ''Hisashi'' was still present with his family.
What do you think?
|| NAAHHH THIS IS WILD, I LOVE IT. ||
Izuku said He Feels at Ease When Someone Holds His Hand.
Now we know that All for One is a Quirk capable of stealing or copying other Quirks and transferring them to whoever he wants or keeping them and using them if the user wants and we also know that he gave his supposedly Quirkless brother a gift of power accumulation… ok? Well that's when I saw this…
"Just holding hands soothes the heart."
Izuku says again that the simple act of holding hands calms the heart because it works for him, holding hands with his friends calms him down and makes him feel good.
Well, so far so good.
That's where THIS comes in…
It is then that Izuku can somehow feel the embers rekindling.
When his other friends arrive, Kacchan walks in and asks Izuku about the embers... "They flew you over here, but… are the embers okay?"
To which Izuku replies "Yeah" Because yes, the embers are so good that they burn again... And no, it was not the "Magic of Friendship" nor the "Power of Love" nor the "Izuocha"
then I was like...
Naniiiii? But what the hell happened here?! and I remembered the following...
Yeap! Izuku's hands in volume 417, and that's when it occurred to me that what a fucking genius Horikoshi-sensei is.
Well, now we all know that AFO steals quirks by touching his victims with his hands due to the holes in them that seem to absorb said quirks, right? ok, have you figured out where I'm going?… AFO is Izuku's father! YES!
So even though here it doesn't look like Izuku has the same holes as AFO, there does seem to be light in what would appear to be said holes, but that's because instead of absorbing Quirks, Izuku only absorbs energy, like the Quirk that AFO imposed on his brother stores energy and like AFO absorbs said power! So if when Izuku touched Uraraka's hand he absorbed part of the power of her quirk to revive the embers, wouldn't that mean that Izuku inherited AFO's mutated quirk somehow? Well you can say that Izuku would need the holes to absorb the power but do we remember what his mother Inko's quirk is? Attraction of small objects and she uses the movement of her hands to attract them, so if we add both quirks Izuku wouldn't need the holes, it would be a combination, and he would attract the power of the quirks just by putting his hands on people. And again you could refute me, "But Izuku has touched a lot of people with his hands" and I'll answer, Yes, but he was wearing gloves and it seems like he only activated his quirk recently in volume 417 of the manga by the looks of it since it's the first time those lights appeared on his BARE hands WITHOUT gloves, so Horikoshi, you damn genius, is this your way of revealing Dad For One in a plot twist at the end of the manga? Or am I just overthinking it?! Whatever it is, I'm happily sticking with this DFO theory!
|| Headcanons alert with some theory stuff ||
|| I imagined that Izuku and Katsuki were telling their children everything while they were growing up, sometimes they didn't tell all the details because they were probably still a little too young for it (That's why the violence grows each season, I imagine that the children are around the same age they were in the story right now) ||
|| I like to think that they told it randomly, I mean, they told it at a random time of the day (Either as a little anecdote or as a bedtime story) but they told it always chronologically ||
|| But, there were more things that they didn't tell, or that one of them didn't like to tell, that's why they skip those parts and that's why they don't mention who the mystery person is or Dad For One ||
((PS: I also like to think that children are like fandom but healthier, having mini meetings and asking each other questions like: "You believe our parents would FINALLY stay together in the the next chapter or will we continue waiting?" xd idk))
Edit: I already saw the interview, forget it, this is all now a headcanon
Do you think it is possible that Horikoshi wants to end ''My Hero Academia'' because it is actually a story told by the main hero and how he became that hero and if the author made a new sequel it would focus on the present?
Because there are still a lot of things that need to be resolved. What about the mysterious person? And then Izuku's father…? I'm really hoping for dfo…
|| The truth is I always thought it was a reference to either All For One or One For All or both combined at the end of everything ||
Popularity poll poster
So, i can't stop thinking about popularity poll art by Horikoshi.
We can see Class 1a riding small dragons whild on the background flying gigantic green-white dragon. So why it is interesting to me?
1. We know from 1 chapter that Hisashi has firebreathing quirk. And Firebreath is mainly dragon thing to do.
2. Dragon not only huge and has red eyes.(i thing red eyes is pretty ominous) But also has THE SAME COLOR as Izuku. Same green shade.
3. Dragon seems looking at Izuku. And Izuku looks at dragon (or Shoto)
What could that art mean ? Please lets have discussion.
@diamondcz27 @vam1mav
And others please write your opinion
|| NO FUCKING WAY- ||
|| GUYS ITS THE SAME HOUSE ||
|| ITS THE SAME HOUSE FROM OTHER ANGLEEE- ||
I was just looking at your post and doesn't it remind you of Afo, Inko and Izuku!!?!?!?
@mallas28 @tengoku-izumi @huiiiooo @diospore @donkeys-waffles @vam1mav What do you think? 👀
|| Okay, first of all, I know that even though there aren't so many people who publish about Dfo, but it makes me soooo happy that someone mention me for the first time in a post 😭 ||
|| And secondly, I've been thinking something, it may be crazy but what if the Midoriya family is not three members but four? ||
|| Something more or less like this ||
|| Now, I have some notes about the poster ||
|| Let's go for colors (Ignore that I made a mistake writing Unknown) ||
1) Blue: The old house of the Midoriya's
|| We all know that the Midoriyas at some point moved to their current house, since thanks to a memory of Izuku, it is seen that he lived for a short time in another location ||
[Comparison]
|| It looked in good condition, what happened to make them move? A fire perhaps? ||
|| It was an accident, or All For One was looking for an excuse to disappear a family member? (Unknown person) ||
|| If Afo wanted to disappear Izuku or "Unknown" who would stop him? ||
|| Inko? She is very manipulative ||
|| Izuku? He was possibly 2/3 years old when that happened, he most likely doesn't remember it ||
|| Also... ||
|| It seems like "Unknown" is trying to find a place (the old house? Maybe that's why there is a close-up of a house) or someone ||
|| Plus it could also mean that the Midoriya family was breaking/burning over the years (A Father and a sibling in one side and a Mother and a other sibling in the other) ||
((If you want to know more about the topic of houses, I leave this post here))
2) Green: A torn/burned part of the poster
|| You can see that a part of the poster is missing, maybe someone else was there ||
|| It doesn't look burned (Which could mean that the possible fire was not an accident) ||
|| That part was torn off (Afo took a member of the Midoriya family by force, because surely Inko would never allow someone to take one of her children) ||
3) Red: The Midoriya's family
|| It looks like All For One, Izuku and Inko are there. And a person in the background (Who we will assume is "Unknown" although it could also reflect the other side of Afo [the villain]) ||
|| "Unknown" is away from the family, in the dark (Also, something I thought is that "Unknown" is crying because for Afo's death [If they were together for so long it is likely that "Unknown" took a kind of affection for him like with Tenko]) ||
|| "Unknown" possibly believes that since Afo is dead, he should take his place ||
Or well Idk, it's the only thing I thought about right now (〒﹏〒)
✧ Thanks to @psychomurderz for knowing how to explain the topic of the Midoriya houses better than me (。•̀ᴗ-) [😭] ✧
I was just looking at your post and doesn't it remind you of Afo, Inko and Izuku!!?!?!?
@mallas28 @tengoku-izumi @huiiiooo @diospore @donkeys-waffles @vam1mav What do you think? 👀
|| Since I joined Tumblr, my goal has always been to see more DFO stuff and make DFO theories that make Bnha's plot much worse. :D ||
Speaking of AFO collecting children…what happened to the rest of the kids at the orphanage where Touya woke up? How many are there? Are there multiple orphanages?
Are they alive or-?
|| Idk, that baby seems to have a pattern like little animals, the other one (the one who is possibly Baby Izuku) has a pattern like little clouds ||
((It is not actually possible to understand the image I made very well, but I tried to trace the shapes of the animals I found, you can see the shape of a sitting animal (Idk what animal it could be but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's a lion/lioness/dog?), a rabbit, a bear/cat? and two other shapes that are covered))
It’s kinda strange how they don’t show Inko after the war. I mean we saw Bakugo and his parents, but Izuku who lost his arms and who was also the ‘star’ of the battle we didn’t see his parents even come to the hospital.
Maybe we might see his parents when we get a dad reveal lol and also a flashback to Izuku’s birth.
Ain’t no way you’re just going to end MHA without a newborn Izuku flashback 😒😒
I wanna see a chubby baby Izuku to complete the holy baby trinity 🤣
|| If this baby. ||
|| This one over here, this little guy that appeared in the Vigilantes manga WITH ALL-FOR-FUCKING-ONE IS Izuku, i'm gonna lost it. (In the good way, but anyways ಥ‿ಥ) ||
((Since he was little, Izuku was always the calmest of the holy baby trinity HAHA-))

((Leaving the topic of the post a little bit and putting it a little into the Dad For One Theory))
|| Hi there! ||
|| Ok, everyone knows about the theory that Inko is Nana Shimura's daughter, right? ||
|| If we go chronological, we can assume that Nana left Inko in a different orphanage than her older brother before Nana fought All For One. (You know, so that Inko would be safe too) ||
|| NOW. We can assume that she (probably) knew about this type of orphanages (Garaki's) and will think something like: "Mm, it looks safe and the kids are happy, well, I'll leave you here." LIKE- ||
|| If we follow this post, THEN IT MEANS THAT INKO COULD BE IN ONE OF THOSE ORPHANAGES (or she could have been transferred from her original orphanage for some reason and ended up in one of those) ||
|| Literally, if that happened then she was in Afo's clutches, he surely found out sooner or later that she was related to Nana, and then he manipulated her, he married her and had Izuku. ||
|| If we do the math, Inko had Izuku at her 25 (Because in Japan you become an adult at around 18/19 years of age). 7 years, 7 years Afo manipulated her to later marry her and have Izuku (AND WHO KNOWS IF THE SON OF A BITCH HAD MARRIED HER EARLIER AND THEY TRIED TO CONCEIVE FOR LONGER-) ||
((I remembered the post on the photo and thought: "Yup, we have to connect the dots"))

Speaking of AFO collecting children…what happened to the rest of the kids at the orphanage where Touya woke up? How many are there? Are there multiple orphanages?
Are they alive or-?
|| According to what I remember, there were more orphanages and also homes for the elderly, although something that has nothing to do with the topic but that I have been asking myself for a while is that... ||
|| If the Dad For One Theory is canon, Does that mean that if he had more children besides Izuku, then they would be in one of the orphanages? (Let's be honest those things were more to experience than to find the children a home-) ||

|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| Haha, can you imagine that in the next chapter (or in some of the four that remain) Spinner (or the new character or inko) tries to explain to Izuku that his father was All For One but he stops the conversation and tells one of them: "Don't worry, I already know." It would be CRAZY if he had known this all this time or he had deduced it at some point and was just holding it in so it wouldn't affect anyone during the war. ||
((I'm going crazy-))
How the hell are we going to have the final closure of the todoroki's story, the canonization of the bkdk AND the Dad For One Theory.... IN JUST 5 FUCKING CHAPTERS?!
not afo related but apparently mha is ending in 5 chapters y'all 😭
|| Hi again :D (I have nothing to do, and well, I thought a point of why Afo didn't kill Inko) ||
|| Maybe at some point, Inko started to remind Afo of his mother (¿?)||
|| I mean- In physical appearance they do look similar, and I also remember that in one chapter Afo said that he could also see the memories of the former users of the quirks that he stole, but like nightmares (Oh well, Idk, I remember something like that he said at some point ಥ╭╮ಥ) ||
|| Maybe his mother was like Inko in her youth, both physical appearance and personality. ||
|| But there came a point where everything went to hell and she ended up being a prostitute, homeless and with no one, and since Afo had her quirk he was able to see her memories and what she was like, and when he started to get to know Inko, she reminded him more of his mother, which generated a little more attachment on his part for her. ||
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| DAMN- ||
|| Imagine Afo having almost the same goal as Endeavor at some point: Combining Quirks. ||
|| What if Afo wanted to have a quirk that didn't have the same weakness as his, he wanted to have an All For One that could steal quirks from distance, and what better way to do it than having an heir? ||
|| But to have an heir, he needed a woman with a quirk that could attract things to her, and that's where Inko comes in ||
|| Her quirk was just what Afo needed, and on top of that, she was manipulable, she was perfect for the plan, but then a problem came in to ruin everything: Hisashi Midoriya ||
|| Most likely by that time they would be married and happy, and just that, was a problem for Afo but when he realized that Hisashi worked in Koga Construction, something came to his mind. ||
|| Afo began to monitor Hisashi and learn his behaviors with people and especially with Inko, and one day, Afo summoned Hisashi to "build" something for him, and when Hisashi arrived... Afo killed him. ||
|| After getting rid of the body, Afo using the Quirk to change appearance, he changed his appearance and took on Hisashi's. (Evidence that Afo does have a Quirk like that in the photo ↓) ||
|| "Hisashi" returned home with his wife, and after a month or more time, he convinces her to have a child ||
|| And well, then Izuku was born ||
|| It is more than obvious that the plan worked, since in the manga Izuku currently shows TOO many signs of having a quirk ||
|| So the question with this theory is... What happened? Why didn't Afo steal Izuku's quirk? ||
|| And don't tell me that "Maybe his quirk was like Yoichi's and they couldn't tell it was really there" BECAUSE THEY KNEW. ||
|| In this publication we are taught some human biology, and, in short, The Doctor Gairaki, lie, THIS BALD SON OF A BITCH LIED TO INKO AND IZUKU IN THEIR FUCKING FACE. ||
|| But why? Why Afo ordered the Doctor to lie?? Why not steal the quirk and say that Izuku was quirkless??? ||
|| For this I bring two possible reasons: ||
1) Izuku's quirk CANNOT be stolen by Afo so he just compressed it and waited for Izuku to decide on his own to be a villain so he could tell him the truth later, and then make him his true successor and the Prince of Demons.
2) Afo ended up becoming fond of Izuku because his appearance and behavior is similar to that of Yoichi, but as we already know...
someone died for using their quirk for the first time.. Soooo Izuku using his quirk didn't seem like a very good idea to Afo.
|| Either option can be possible, it could even be both! (I say this because Afo HAD MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO KILL IZUKU OR INKO AND NEVER DID ANYTHING TO THEM WHEN THAT PLUM BITCH KILLED NANA'S HUSBAND AND THE WHOLE FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF KUDOU-) ||
|| But well now we just have to wait to see how the Dad For One Theory will become canon ||
|| And remember! ||
|| Have hope that the theory will become reality! If Horikoshi already did something like this with Tomura/Tenko and with Dabi/Touya then the theory is not so crazy that it cannot be canonized! ||
|| Horikoshi never disappoints the fandom!! ||
✧ Credits to @gothicayomi and @zelyres for they incredible theories!✧
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| Nobody, NO ONE I TELL YOU. It's going to take the idea out of my head that these two are family (They may be siblings siblings, or maybe step-siblings.) ||
|| I mean- LOOK AT THEM ||
|| And if that's not enough, it also looks like Inko if you start to analyze it a little ||
(Yes, yes, I know I'm going crazy and delirious for not having a preview of the manga, just let me be-)
|| Naahh, if the "Inko Shimura" and "Dad For One" theory become canon along with the Bakudeku ship, that family will be chaos wherever you see it ||
|| THEORY TIMEEE||
|| Ok first of all, ouch- (I hit my tooth on my cell phone by accident when this theory appeared in my mind ಥ╭╮ಥ) ||
|| What if this new character is not a new character, but rather Inko (Well, THE young Inko) ||
|| Maybe we'll finally have some context for Inko and her past (How she met Hisashi/All For One) and this is the first taste of it (I'm just going crazy and I'm hallucinating, ok? Leave me alone-) ||
|| Oh god- ||
|| Wh- Who are you? Some kind of stepbrother/stepsister of Izuku who will reveal to us that The Dad For One Theory is true??? WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!- ||
|| Okay guys, we have some options now and neither are nice but they are the most possible we have now for confirmation Dad For One, What do you think will happen? ||
// Anyways, HAPPY PRIDE MONTH! //
|| Okay, on one hand, part of me is sad because we didn't see much of Dad For One in this chapter and now i'm like this: ||
|| But on the other hand my bkdk shipper side is like this: ||
|| Wait... ||
|| WAIT- ||
|| Afo is THAT you???? ||
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| Nah, imagine that DFO is actually canon, but since Izuku (and probably Katsuki) tells the story of how he became the greatest hero, he avoids that part because he doesn't like to remember it. ||
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| Ok I only thought about it about two seconds ago but what if Doctor Gairaki did something so that neither Afo nor the Midoriyas would remember each other, I mean imagine such a plot twist that in reality the bastard If he had had the family why yes, and then the Doctor finds out and sees it as a waste of time, but he can't do anything because it's Afo ||
|| But when Afo died the first time he did something so that neither Afo nor his family will remember each other. ||
|| Suspicious. ||
(Discreetly insert DFO into the post-)
I was re-reading the manga and one detail confused me. Why doesn't Inko's "favorite things" list Hisashi? Yes, I understand my claim may sound far-fetched because usually there is nothing special in the information about parents’ favorite things (their hobbies are simply written there) But in my opinion, Inko is a real housewife and it’s in her character to put her family first, so instead of the same sewing that could have been written, her favorite things say “Izuku”, but why not “Hisashi and Izuku”? Was it really that her husband didn’t show up at home for so long that she “cooled off” towards him?🤔
|| Literally mha's fandom with All For One on Tumblr: ||
I just love the versatility of AFO fans, like on one side you'll have this incredibly Indepth analysis of his childhood trauma and on the other side you have the horniness people you've ever encountered. And it's amazing.
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| Soooo, I saw a comment on one of my previous posts that reminded me of a theory I made a few years ago about Dad For One and now I would like to share it! (although of course I edited it a little so that it is more subdued with what is currently happening in the manga-) ||
|| The theory goes that basically, Izuku WAS planned to be a vessel, but not for Afo, no, he was supposed to be the vessel for Yoichi's consciousness. ||
|| With how Afo is, it wouldn't seem strange to me that he wouldn't be satisfied with just having his brother's quirk and only talking to his ghost/conscience, once he had One For All, he would look for someone, someone who was the most similar as possible to Yoichi, both in appearance and goals, but when he couldn't find that someone, he probably thought : Why not create him? Why not create that person? ||
|| Furthermore, if he created that person who was going to be a vessel, he would not only be blood-linked to him (as he is with Yoichi) but he could also obtain a Quirk in the process, it was a win-win for HIM!! ||
|| But after this, although we don't know what happened, we don't know why he only let Izuku have a normal life (It could be that Afo became attached to Izuku or the experiment failed, but hey, that part will be confirmed to us by Horikoshi in some chapter) ||
|| But well that was the whole theory, if you want you can add things to it if you like :p ||
Has anybody else been so hyped after reading the latest chapters of MHA (418-422) because of the hints that the identity of Deku's father will be revealed soon?
In chapter 422, The U.S. president is shown, stating that all American heroes are to come to Japan, so perhaps Deku's father might be on that list of people arriving to help out.
I know there is still the possibility of the reveal being Dad for One, which is an interesting theory in my opinion, but the other chance that it might be an individual who works with heroes or is one of them also seems very intriguing.
It could also be the president himself, given how he is always in the shadows, but I honestly feel there is a slim chance for that to be true.
I can't be certain how Horikoshi will put the puzzle pieces of who Izuku's father is together, but I feel the president panels might be a piece of the puzzle somehow. His face is in the shadows...
...but again so was AFO's face for a long time.
I still feel really strongly about the DFO theory. On one hand I do see how people might be displeased by it, because AFO does insert himself in a lot of characters lives and influences them from the background, but precisely because of that I find him a very interesting and fleshed out character. So desperate for attention and love, even when he has it he doesn't know how to respond to it. He is also quite a charming character, which I feel you would have to be to impress the lovely Inko Midoriya. She is just too amazing, I also feel that he would be drawn to her as well because of that. Or perhaps because she bears resemblance to a certain Shimura? But again, Inko is very different to Nana, as in, she appears much softer as a character than Nana does, and I feel AFO would crave that from a person given that he wasn't taken care of and had to help his brother out and grew up in a very feral state and an incredibly hostile environment for anybody, let alone a child. Even though he does end up using people, I do think that that is because of his defense mechanism and constant living on survival mode affecting him.
AFO is also someone who doesn't want people to know the real him, his weaknesses and inner thoughts, his human side. The memories he does share with Deku and Tomura are only to traumatize them and break them up; in short: they are carefully curated.
If DFO does come into play, I feel that Tomura/Tenko will have a hand in the reveal. Perhaps helping or saving Izuku from within the vestige world? Maybe he will be able to help by seeing Izuku's memories and altering them like Deku did for him, because in the case that does end up happening, Deku will be the one needing a helping hand in coping with the reveal, and who better than the boy who that man was a father figure to as well. And in the end Deku and Tomura could also together "defeat" AFO by seeing his memories and saving the defenseless child he once was.
This is probably overthinking, but I wanted to share my thoughts with you guys. I love trying to guess what will happen and still being surprised by Horikoshi's amazing execution each time. I would love to read what you guys have to say on the topic.
The 3 murders could be her family (I.e her parents and maybe a sibling cause her deadname mean “intelligent second son”) and maybe a teacher if she was an only child
The 29 attempted murders could her classmates
They were all transphobs’
The assault could be in self defense
And the robberies could be just her way of surviving off the streets
Now, I’m not saying this would justify her actions. Those are bad
But, Society
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
