|| 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???? ||
|| It stresses me not to have any Dad For One content to talk about, I mean I think it's good that Horikoshi takes his time with the theory but I don't like leaving my account abandoned even if I don't have that many likes :( ||
|| 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?🤔
|| People like Dfo memes, I give Dfo memes ||
|| Afo really loving Inko and Izuku how he loved Yoichi, seeing them as his property, but treating them better because surely Hisashi would have behaved that way with Inko and Izuku and because the plum doesn't want them to end up like Yoichi, even if he doesn't admit it. It seems like something totally possible to me. (And I just realized that with this theory, Horikoshi would literally have both part's of the fandom happy, THE PEOPLE WHO SAY HISASHI IS A RANDOM GUY AND THE DFO THEORISTS WOULD BE RIGHT-) ||

|| 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!! ||

|| In fact, something that I didn't add in the theory (because I was sleepy and didn't want to write more-) Is that maybe this is why Horikoshi feels like he wants to apologize to Inko. ||
|| I mean, imagine Inko in all this, she was just having a normal and happy life with her husband, and then a villain comes to kill and replace her husband and rape her (Because of course Inko probably thought that her husband just wanted to have a family, when in reality was Afo) just to have a child with a strong quirk, I can't imagine how devastated Inko would be if this really happened and someone (Probably Izuku) told her after the war, any woman would be destroyed and terrified if they knew the love of they life was murdered in cold blood and replaced all this time. ||

|| Hey, if the Dad For One Theory becomes canon... ||
|| Then the Motherfucker of Afo gave Izuku the money to buy the All Might figures and all the merchandise (or worse yet, HE bought the merchandise of All Might and send it to Izuku by mail) ||
|| And it couldn't have been Inko's money! Because she doesn't have a job! She is a housewife! ||
[ Imagine having to buy to your son, your ENEMY'S MERCHANDISE, just to make him happy ◉‿◉) ]
|| 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 ||
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| Dude ||
|| What if Afo was just taking a little Izuku to daycare with the appearance change quirk activated and after leaving him he planned to go with the Doctor Garaki/Tsubasa so he deactivated the quirk but after that, All Might saw him in his normal form (which would be the All For One that we all know), and seeing him off guard, he took advantage of it to attack him and that was one of the factors why All Might won that battle? ||
|| It was a hole. ||
|| I REPEAT ||
|| IT WAS A HOLEEE- ||
not me going crazy studying every visible Midoriya palm every time a new leak happens
421 had only this one and I'm pretty sure he's wearing a glove but here it is.
It's the Aoyama flashback hand if that matters
But yeah I'm going crazy here lmaooo I just want a definite yes or no answer
Like that bit of shading in the middle seriously got me for a second but I'm pretty sure he had gloves on so probably not a hole just the fold of his fabric.
Hey, imagine that the Dad For One Theory becomes canon... AND ALSO BKDK
Imagine Afo cursing Katsuki in hell because:
1) The Yoichi and Kudou thing HAPPENED AGAIN.
2) Because Afo would see Katsuki as the second person (All Might would be the first) responsible for Izuku wanting to be a hero (Because thanks to that they just turned Izuku against him)
|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| GUYS ||
|| IMAGINE THAT IN THE REVELATION OF DAD FOR ONE THEORY, IZUKU WANTS TO ATTACK AFO, AND WHEN HE IS APPROACHING, AFO USE THE APPEARANCE CHANGE QUIRK AND THE QUIRK TRANSFORM HIM INTO A HORRENDOUS AND TERRIFYING VERSION OF "HISASHI MIDORIYA" (AND THEN USE THAT TO MANIPULATE IZUKU OR SO HE DOESN'T ATTACK HIM) ||
|| THAT WOULD BE AMAZING AND AWFUL BUT IT WOULD BE AN INCREDIBLE WAY TO CANONIZE DFO ||
|| BUT WHO KNOWS, MAYBE HORIKOSHI WILL DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS OR EVEN WORSE ( ʘᴗʘ) ||
"When All For One heard the sound of Yoichi's vestige shattering, his world lost its colors. He gave up his ambitions and then no attack from Deku could overcome the pain of losing him."
|| WOW ||
|| There's no sign of the Dad For One Theory becoming canon (yet) but at least we know the motherfucker has emotions! ||
(Although, of course, he could be faking, but I don't think that's happening here)
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Oh well now that I've read the chapter I have nothing else to do so if you'll excuse me I'm going back to my hole until the next chapter comes out the next week-
|| Okay ||
|| Now that we know that this son of a bitch can change his appearance (Either with just one quirk itself or the combination of other quirks) ||
|| I just realize something.. How many FUCKING times did we see this bastard in the background (Including flashback or not) when Horikoshi just draw various characters in the manga and we didn't notice? ಥ‿ಥ ||
|| Okay, I haven't seen any more of this, and I have been the only who posted something like this related to the recent chapters, sooo I'm going to post it! (Besides, I made more). ||
|| Damn. ||
I'm DYING to know that
|| Well ||
|| I'm just gonna add another panel of [Izuku showing that he HAS (Not always) an "Afo Hole"] to the pile of panels (+ Official art) we already have. ||
Let's be honest guys, Horikoshi is taking absolutely (almost) EVERY theory that has been floating around the fandom and turning them CANON left and right, Surely he will confirm the Dad For One theory in a few chapters
(And in the worst possible way as he did with Tomura in the previous chapters)
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.
