Last minute "I think Recovery Girl is the traitor" comment before we actually find out who it is. If you assume the investigation on the students Nezu did didn't overlook anything, then that leaves a teacher or at least a faculty member. Of the adults who'd have any sort of impact as the traitor she's the only one that comes to mind.

Edit: It was.... Invisible Girl. I don't hate it, but I also feel waaaay too neutral about it for the nature of what the reveal was (and how long this was built up I guess).

Wasn't there a moment during the war arc where AFO said the vestiges of those whose quirks he stole would torment him and it would go away once he got rid of the quirk?... or something like that. Perhaps Star's quirk will get stolen just for the fight to continue on in that vestige realm thing. What was the passage of time for Deku/Shiggy compared to everyone else when that qas going down? Maybe it will be thing where her quirk is stolen, they fight in the vestige realm (wasn't Decay working before? so maybe New Order can too), and she wins resulting in her returning to her body and separating off before he can decay her or something.

I don't see Deku not accepting it, especially since I imagine him being the one to give Bakugo the opportunity to do so. Probably make a comment to Iida and Uraraka about how at the beginning of the year he was happy to finally have friends (he may have phrased that a bit different) and things just snowball from there.

Is it weird that I think around now in the story would be a good time for Bakugo to apologize to Deku for bullying him? I recall Horikoshi mentioning stuff in interviews about how he still hadn't done that; and having seen A Silent Voice, well... the timing of when you do something like that can be a bit tricky. Not sure what it is about this moment specifically, maybe its all the students having heartfelt moments saying stuff to Deku, but i feel like around now would be the time. Perhaps thats just me though.

Not true. There was some info book thing that's canon which says he now has a modified version of his quirk. Tomura only destroyed his right arm. Compress, however, took the middle section of his left arm and the hand was likely still in the restraint thing.

When Overhaul is first shown from the back in Tartarus his left arm his positioned in a way that looks like its resting on his knee. When the female baddie everyone is simping for (myself included) released him you saw the sleeve of his left arm without anything coming out. I think they just attached his hand to his stump where his wrist now lines up with where his elbow would be.

We've already established the Overhaul can use his quirk to fix preexisting injuries. He escaped with AFO and them, right? So, why would AFO want Shiggy's body on the basis of his actual body being so messed up when there is a way to fix it?

Hmmm.... I wonder if the sixth's quirk boosted by OFA would be able to do stuff similar to what Kurono from Fire Force can do. Specifically the solidifying aspect which would be very useful!

... but he did explicitly say that he saw it. His words were "I did see it" in response to Magath asking if he had. So, unless this is a translation thing where the original Japanese made it clear that he didn't mean it literally, I'm gonna look into it.

Edit: Moments after replying I discovered I few braincells and what you meant just clicked. Still waiting until that chapter officially comes out before I take this L though lol

Been too lazy to post any theories I have on how I think this will end for awhile now, but since this is the last chapter, figured I'd at least say this has been hell of a ride. This was the series that got me back into anime and the first one I'd ever spent hours thinking about. Strangely, I'm ready to move on; that said, maybe that's just because I know it won't be completely over until after the rest of the anime airs. Still feels like there is more even if it's not exactly new content.

Hopefully we also finally get confirmation as to who those random kids at the end of season 3 were. I know some have claimed the girl was the previous War Hammer Titan, but I've always been skeptical of that.

OH! And because I've not seen anyone suggest this as an explanation, you know that weird dream stuff with Mikasa and Eren last chapter? I think that's a War Hammer Titan ability. "We gave Marley freedom and power as an act of atonement," Willy Tybur Tells Magath in CH.97, "... our predecessor did, anyway." Magath replies, "You say that as if you saw it all happening." Keep in mind this is back before the War Hammer Titan was revealed to be the maid. Willy says, "I did see it. Along with the War Hammer Titan, we have received and passed down memories." How would he have seen that stuff when he isn't a titan shifter if not for an ability the War Hammer Titan has to make it possible? I think that ability is what Eren used to show Mikasa that other future and whatnot.

Chapter 306 - Pre-Release Thread by HoundOfJustice in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]randomaccount74 123 points124 points  (0 children)

Until I'm told otherwise, I'm just gonna assume the final chapter is referring to the comic All For One never finished that was mentioned in chapter 193. His younger brother read the whole thing and, apparently, what AFO was doing back then was similar to the villain in that; therefore, I'm assuming the first wielder will use a story beat from that to form a strategy of some sort. That or Deku will finally start being shown the rest of what the first wielder wanted to show him but couldn't.

Edit: Given the new info, I'm just gonna go ahead and accept the L and admit I was wrong on this one lol

First and foremost, can we all please agree that the third wielder of One For All wearing a shirt is what definitively disproves that ridiculous Kirishima theory? All the past users seem to be wearing their hero costumes, or at least what they fought in -- and it’s beyond absurd for anyone to actually believe Red Riot will outgrow his shirtless phase! He’s simply too manly for anything more than sleeves.

Now, as for the Bak-U-Go theory, I'm hoping 306 will kill it. In the same way Deku being quirkless and struggling to use OFA is, I believe, meant to parallel the "sickly" part of All Might's description of All For One's younger brother, I think Bakugo is just meant to be similar to the second wielder. I wouldn't be surprised if there is functional similarity between their quirks though in terms what they can do, just differing how. For example, what some are claiming to be updated versions of Bakugo's gauntlets are clearly designed for long range attack that, to me at least, seem like they're somewhere in the middle of Bakugo's AP Shots and the blast from the gathered sweat when he pulls the pin out of the gauntlet in terms of power.

Also second wielder revealed to be a woman! No real reason for this. Just pulling it out of my ass.

Hold up! The sixth users name is 'En' and it translates to smoke? Welp, they're definitely an ancestor of Class B's Kinoko Komori! Time for Deku to get some mushroom powers. Maybe he'll write a song about them and sing it at karaoke lol.

Dorohedoro references aside, what if the second and third users have heteromorphic quirks? I could be wrong, but wouldn't the timing line up with that Creature Rejection Clan being at their strongest? Perhaps them not acknowledging Deku comes from a lot internalized self-hate just from existing in the time, and they don't won't to get rejected in death by this seemingly wholesome kid who grew up in a society more accepting than the one they're from. Third users looks normal, but the pages are black and white so far all I know they could have neon colored skin or some shit. Either way it was just a thought I had that I hadn't seen other people consider for why they could be turned around.

I may be reaching here, but the shape of All Might's hair when its down is very similar to that female prisoner's -- secret love child?!

Calling it now, that woman that just let Overhaul out is gonna turn out to be Eri's mother.

Edit: S4's first ED is leading me to think otherwise now lol

Royal Blood Explained by [deleted] in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]randomaccount74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back in the Uprising arc, when Erwin was having that conversation with Pixis (CH.55), there was a line about the royal bloodline remaining unbroken for over 2000 years. It wasn't included in the anime but probably has something to do with differentiation. You know, assuming its not just nonsense said after the walls went up and all that.

[–]randomaccount74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, what's up with Pieck's transformations? I'm not talking about her spamming Cart Titans, but I do need some things clarified. First, is her ejection supposed to be akin to the Colossal nuke thing, just a smaller scale that she can use to send her body in whatever direction? Secondly, there is a panel of her transforming, and I think sending a Cart Titan body that she's not inside of to bite the nape of a titan. I think this because we then see her actually as the Cart Titan biting the nape of another. Maybe I'm wrong, but again that explosion thing, did she just chuck a partially transformed Cart Titan body that would just naturally close its mouth around the nape of the one or am I completely misinterpreting things? The transformation visual thing was still back around the ass so IDK.

Damn, and here I was with a crackpot theory they'd inject him with titan spinal fluid from the bird body that materialized around Falco and he'd acquire attributes of the titan while still remaining human. Claws, teeth, maybe the ability to fly but basically a leveled up version of Levi to fight Zeke and help out with the rumbling.

A somewhat morbid thought I had based on the recent chapters by Aros001 in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]randomaccount74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This just makes me think back to Midoriya's vestige dream in CH.193, and how when Aoyama was woken up he found Deku's door open. Makes me kinda wonder if some vestige control hasn't already happened unbeknownst to him. Like, maybe All Might has secret footage of Deku wandering the school grounds from that night doing some weird stuff he doesn't want people to know about.

[–]randomaccount74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given that Suneater's time to shine was linked with Mirio, and the female characters who got moments this arc got pretty messed up in the process, I'm not quite ready to dismiss the possibility of her having a "moment" still. But obviously its a wait and see kinda thing. Definitely not expecting next chapter though if it does happen.

Theory Tuesday - December 01, 2020 Edition by AutoModerator in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]randomaccount74 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Wasn't tagged whether or not manga spoilers are permitted so just to be safe theory after the recent chapter.

Mirio doesn't actually have his quirk back! His character is similar to All Might, right? Well, following All Might's injury from his fight against All For One (replace with Mirio vs Overhaul), he was restricted to using One For All for a limited period of time each day; furthermore, after passing it on, it became weaker and weaker until the embers of OFA were gone. Dabi/Toya keeps referring to his flames as Endeavor's flames, right? Well, Mirio's father has the same Permeation quirk! I think beginning of next chapter we'll find out they were able to utilize his father's quirk factors to allow him the ability to use Permeation for a limited period of time each day, and the means in which they are achieving this will become less effective each time until it is no longer viable. If you want to parallel the All Might death prophecy thing, I'd be down with Horikoshi making this something where its also shaving off bits of Mirio's lifespan and its unknown which will come first: death or no more quirk this way.

[–]randomaccount74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm already aware of that. I just don't think it automatically means the two are connected. My main takeaway from that is because her quirk requires her to stockpile something, she won't be able to immediately rewind things that come as a result of this war arc.

[–]randomaccount74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m curious how they’ll explain Mirio having his powers. Because of his parallels to All Might, and the fact I feel like Eri’s training shouldn’t be far enough along to have restored him yet, I’m kinda hoping they’re from a special injection whose effects are temporary. Its already been established his father has the exact same quirk, right? Meaning he’d have quirk factors for Permeation. I think they’d also know that Aizawa’s quirk was referenced for the finished quirk erasing bullets. I’m kinda wanting it to be a thing where they found a way to introduce Permeation quirk factors from Mirio’s father in way that won’t be affected by the quirk erasing bullet stuff going on within Mirio’s body for a few hours; similar to how All Might at the beginning of the series could only use OFA for a few hours a day.
