y'now maybe All for One just has so many quirks that there are niche ones for contrived scenarios. i bet his quirk made that truck.

Sero, I feel like "need some savings, pal" is a bit too casual to say to a friend who just lost both his hands. I guess it could be worse. At least he didn't say "need a hand?"

It's literally the strongest quirk we've ever seen. All For One: Not right at this moment. But I'm sure we'll get around to it sometime in the next 2 decades.

Fabricated posted:The actual question here is that why didn't he have kid overhaul fix him after All Might punched his head off? I mean, I guess it could've turned out the same- Overhaul can only work with the materials that it has so if you're too hosed up it probably can't get you to 100%. Or maybe that's how Garaki fixed him. Or Overhaul was adopted before AFO/Garaki needed it. Couldn't Overhaul theoretically just whack some other person with a desirable body and use their pieces to recreate AFO as ideally as possible?

Yeah, the fact that AfO seems to have had access to Overhaul's quirk the whole time is pretty "wait, what?". From what we saw Overhaul do, his Quirk should be able to reform AfO to his pre-injury state extremely easily. I guess there is a bunch of hand-waves you can use to justify why that didn't happen, but it still pretty egregious oversight if Horikoshi decides to not address it further and pretty clumsy writing even if he does.

Probably a combination of AFO not trusting Overhaul like he would Dr. Garaki, and AFO not wanting to bother with learning how to use Overhaul's Overhaul (similar to Best Jeanist's Fiber Master).

By the time he learned of Overhaul, he had already committed to the "steal this kid's body" plan.

If he didn't have "but I want quirks that are strong now" as an ironic character flaw, he could've just held onto the Power Stockpiling quirk and now have unlimited power. Instead of dumping it onto his brother and accidentally creating OFA.

AFO being an instant gratification guy when it comes to quirks is fitting (he takes, uses, and discards them like trash) but is another thing you'd kinda want to spell out.

He also needed a new body anyways because he was trying to create someone with the right personality to be able to steal One For All, so he didn't really have a reason to fix up his own body if he was going to ditch it anyways.

He's the opposite of instant gratification everywhere else! We are seeing the culmination of decades long schemes right now! Why would this in particular be one too many plates to have spinning?

I thought he didn't steal fiber control because he felt he couldn't get much out of it and neither would Shigaraki because it was mostly good from Best Jeanist's fine control and practice. Presumably if he'd had twenty years to kick around and had a 'I can completely resculpt my body' he would have happily done so. Even just regrowing his eyes would give him an improvement in QOL.

He only mentioned that it wouldn't suit Tomura. Also, it doesn't make sense that he stole Fierce Wings and not Fiber Master if only to punish and humiliate Best Jeanist like he would Hawks.

Anime only viewer here but this line was always interesting to me because it did seem to indicate he intended Tomura to be his true apprentice to whom he would bestow everything. But, based on S6 and every little manga thing I do know, this did not end up happening. So, if his intent was always to just control Tomura himself, why does it matter if such Quirks don't fit Tomura's disposition? If this is addressed in the manga or a huge spoiler, you can just say as much.

Positive thoughts: the cover page art is super dope. Sugar man also looks pretty badass here for maybe the first time. Some other thoughts: I genuinely wonder if Shigaraki has half of a copied Overhaul quirk because Horikoshi realized too late that Overhaul’s quirk is literally just a better version of Shigaraki’s. It really doesn’t make sense that AfO would be aware of such an awesome quirk and not decide to also mentor Overhaul, in fact allowing him to fall under sway of a rival crime guy.

oh jay posted:He only mentioned that it wouldn't suit Tomura. Yeah, AfO's bit about "this quirk is too complicated and would require practice to actually use" was about Tomura, not himself. There's nothing to suggest that he wouldn't take a monstrously powerful quirk that requires practice to use for himself; given that he has no problem setting up subtle and meticulous plans that take literally years to come to any kind of fruition, it would make precisely zero sense that he'd turn down a quirk like Overhaul's, which is basically a god mode cheat quirk even if he couldn't use it to fix himself.

So, if his intent was always to just control Tomura himself, why does it matter if such Quirks don't fit Tomura's disposition? I'm running on the assumption that in Horikoshi's outline at the time, either AfO was actually meant to die/be permanently defeated and Shigaraki was supposed to be an actual successor instead of a meat puppet. Alternatively, it's also possible that "the evil doctor invented a magic saiyan healing tube that turns someone into an invincible superhuman with infinite regeneration to make it so Shigaraki can't be hurt by 300 heroes throwing themselves at him" wasn't originally part of the outline, so AfO was being choosy about quirk selection to make Shigaraki as strong as possible for the period when he'd have to fight before AfO could bodyjack him.

It's pretty safe to say that Horikoshi has been winging the story for quite a while at this point. I don't think much from any original plot outline has stuck around at this point given the constant bouncing and whiplashing lol But everyone knows Mineta is gonna save the day at the end, because ?? and it will be 100% justified cause there'll be a reference to something from 100 chapters ago

So even though I'm not on the negative train on MHA with the rest I do think the weakest part of the story is AFO's refusal to exit it. The same reason All Might had to live is why AFO really should not be the final boss right now.

If I was being charitable, All for One did intend to pass on the torch by dying to kill All Might. Except then he survived and Garaki ended up perfecting a technique that hadn't been prepared prior to All for One's imprisonment. Thus, All for One was being honest about the selecting quirks for Shigaraki. He just ended up changing plans later because he's ultimately still a selfish narcissist who wants to be the dark ruler of Japan if given the chance.

Endorph posted:afo is just a really boring villain tbh He didn't start that way, but he sure ended up that way. Literally makes no sense why he didn't take the Overhaul Quirk, it's one of those things where if you're aware of it and you can take it, why would you ever not. Also this plot point completely ruins one of the mangas main storybeats about Hero Society letting people fall through the cracks and how society as whole has to be better to prevent people like Shigaraki being created.
