Maybe if he stares at someone long and hard enough from near by, a secondary effect comes out and he can see further. There's the touch component which could increase efficacy with proximity? Conjecture for now but we'll see I suppose. I'm wondering if Overhaul's quirk is the transfer of injuries and illnesses. Perhaps he could draw out the illnesses for storage and then direct the storage into another target. He'd basically be able to heal and kill as fast as his quirk allows (instantaneously if the bloody messes are an indication). Conjecture again but it'll be interesting to find out.

I got the sense that Nighteye was just doing your average everyday prediction, not using his quirk. He also just happens to be a very precise sort of individual.

it definitely seems like theyre talking about his quirk. all might says "i told you not to WATCH me", combover man tries to get him to change his ways, all might is like "its not like your PREDICTIONS are ever wrong", combover man says that doesnt mean he cant change them in the future

Even if he's healed he can't go back to being All Might since his power is gone to Deku. All Might is dead, and giving him his good body back could lead to some fun conflict where he wants to be a hero again because he spent most of his life being a hero.

Thing about predictions and quirks is that there are stages of advancement to them as well as a question of accuracy. It's wholly possible that Nighteye can accurately predict the future with amazing clarity within an hour of touching someone, but he can also use a long term version of his quirk for a prediction years down the line, but it is murkier and less accurate. Like a weather forecast, subject to alterations from chaotic elements. At least, that is my take on it.

Given that the assumed limitations on class 1A's quirks have been broken with a mix of training and creative application, I wouldn't be surprised if 1 hour was just the limit where he can be close to 100% certain. It could also just be that in addition to his future telling quirk he's just learned to predict events with regular old intuition too, though.

I mean if he could predict things from that far away did he predict that All Might was going to pick Deku years before he actually met him?

Reading the FA scanlations makes it seem more like it's a metaphorical "prediction" and that All Might is admonishing/mocking what he's saying.

That's why it's probably either not very accurate or lacking in control somewhat. Maybe it's like Jedi Foresight, a random flash of a possible future.

I think when All Might said that, he was implying Nighteye saw his initial injury in his fight with AfO.

I do wonder if Deku is going to be rendered as an invalid before he turns 18 at this rate. God I hope not, he'd better turn around from his funk and put his analytics to good use.

Considering the initial setup for the manga is Deku telling the story of how he BECAME a hero, I wouldn't bet on the early death of Deku.

Horikoshi could pull a JoJo and have the story be about different heirs of One for All. Not saying it's at all likely, but it's possible.

Ah, someone who thinks the sitcom How I Met Your Mother is actually about meeting the children's mother. This is actually all a flashback story from Deku to the next bearer of All For One, on the eve of Deku's 18th birthday.

I'm hoping we get a flashback (somehow) showing what happened between All for One and his brother. Why did AFO give him the stockpiling quirk? It'd be awesome if it turned out the brother didn't always oppose him, and AFO gave the quirk to him while he was his lieutenant.

I don't think the WSJ audience would appreciate a western comic shoutout to this degree, but Midoriya suffering a false death for a while ala' uh...most superheroes really and making a triumphant return would be something I'd read.

Stop reminding me that they filmed all of the couch scenes at the very start of the show and were therefore locked into a specific ending even though 9 years later the plot had developed in such a way that to reach their predetermined endpoint they had to break tons of characterization to get back to where they wanted.
