Talk:Dabi

Unnamed Section
his eyes. the color of them. very suspicious. on a recent chapter it is revealed that Todoroki Touya's status is unknown and he had fire power that was stronger than Enji's. very suspicious. nothing revealed so far. Lygarx (talk) 05:30, October 13, 2018 (UTC)

Appearance
Is Dabi's physical appearance in My Hero Academia: Smash!! canon to the main manga/anime, if so does that include the other characters as well? Zeref Fullbuster (talk) 02:30, June 15, 2019 (UTC)

Didn't Dabi's piercings go from silver to gold? KEI6OS 04:01, June 8, 2020 (UTC) (talk ) 23:59, June 7, 2020 (ETC)

OK so maybe can you guys make Dabi's skin like some sort of Fair with extencive burns in multiple areas

I don't think there's enough evidence to say that Dabi "doesn't have earlobes", it just looks like he has attached earlobes if anything. They're normal ears, nothing special. Deideloo (talk) 09:41, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Origin
I take it Dabi's (if he's Toya) origins will be in the next arc or the next, separate from the League who's origins were revealed in the Meta Liberation Army Arc, if so will it include the Todoroki Family? Zeref Fullbuster (talk) 01:48, July 30, 2019 (UTC)

Error/excess in Introduction
" dubbed as  Blueflame  (蒼炎  Sōen? ) by  Geten" is unnecessary in the introduction as it was just a filler for his name when Geten couldn't remember his actual name or as a nickname, not anything of importance.

Also an error in "is major supporting antagonist in the series" it's either major or supporting, a charcter can't be both. Also it needs a "a" in their before the adjective as "is major", "is supporting" or " is antagonist doesn't make grammatical sense.

The "major supporting antagonist in the series, and a villain affiliated with the League of Villains and was a member of the organization's Vanguard Action Squad. He and the rest of his team serve as the main antagonists of the Forest Training Camp Arc. He also serves as an antagonist for the Pro Hero Arc." has a lot of redundancy and can easily be shortened down to  "major supporting antagonist in the series, and a villain affiliated with the League of Villains and was a member of the organization's Vanguard Action Squad." for the introduction as the extra notes for the arcs are unnecessary in an introduction.

Appearance
if you look closer at the manga panels (Idk if the animators have put it in yet) his right earlobe is missing the bottom part. You can see it in the Dabi vs Vlad king panels and if you look closer anywhere I guess, so yeah I hope this helps

You can kinds see it in these pictures

So....
Dabi is now kinda confirmed to be Toya Todoroki, when we gonna get the combined stuff?


 * Wait until we get more chapters for that matter. For all we know, Dabi may not be Toya Todoroki.Poweltav (talk) 21:44, 5 November 2020 (UTC)


 * I agree, but I will add I have noticed a mod making a sandbox of the combined pages so I'd say we'll be able to combine them pretty fast once we do have official 100% confirmation (also why is everything bolded?) -  TheNinjaOnTheTop  (talk) 22:43, 5 November 2020 (UTC)


 * I pressed the semicolon instead of the colon key.Poweltav (talk) 22:51, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Name?
is there any intention to rename the article? Im not sure what the ruling is on this wiki, I only bring it up because he himself has stated to prefer being called by his birthname. It'd be like naming Midoriya's article Deku.--—Mina Țepeș 22:34, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I would actually like to bring this back; why hasn't the page been renamed to "Toya Todoroki" but instead it became a redirect? For everybody else who's real names we know, their page name is their real name while their hero/villain name is a redirect.  TheNinjaOnTheTop  (talk) 17:16, 15 November 2020 (UTC)


 * It's the same as Shigaraki's page staying as Tomura Shigaraki rather than being renamed to Tenko Shimura; Dabi is Dabi now, not the Toya Todoroki he used to be. It's not the same as having a villain alias that you use just because it sounds cool and hides your immediate personal details. I guess it could be put up for discussion again, but most are happy with it staying as Dabi and it'd be a big job to rename it now so I don't really see the point. 『   Zen  . 』  talk  17:47, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I get what you mean in that he's physically transformed but Dabi isn't really comparable to Tomura in that aspect because "Tomura Shigaraki" is an actual name and Tomura considers it his name; Dabi was just using the alias so people didn't know his real name (which he clearly doesn't care about anymore given he has shown ~a couple million people his real name), he's actually more comparable to Hawks. Hawks hid his real name for most his life because his father was a villain but still considers "Keigo Takami" his real name (even if it would have been easier to just legally change it) much similar to how Dabi does. Personally I think it's worth a community discussion at least.  TheNinjaOnTheTop  (talk) 19:02, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Well we are basically treating "Before Dabi" = Toya Todoroki, and everything after as "Dabi" plain and simple. It might be harder to justify "Keigo Takami" but it's fine at it as Keigo/Hawks are interchangeable while "Toya" is talking about Dabi's past. I feel this could cause more issues in the future but as the rules have it right now. If you have a known full name that is the page name. Only exceptions are Pro Heroes without them, Tomura and now Dabi. It makes more sense for Dabi to be the main page for various reasons so it's best to keep as is. FirePsychic (talk) 19:59, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Recent chapters (335, 341) have shown that Dabi is now called Toya by people like AFO and Toga. Shigaraki still calls him Dabi (344) but that might be because of lack of closeness or lack of knowledge. After all, Shigaraki hasn't exactly been himself lately, and we don't even know if this is the real him (but that's neither here nor there). Dabi calls himself Toya now, the secret is out, and apparently other people who haven't lived underneath a rock and are personally acquainted with him call him Toya now as well. He identifies as Toya Todoroki. That's his name. The heroes still call him Dabi because they only see a villain, not a person. Note that the people who do see him as a person (Shoto) call him Toya. So the name change seems pertinent now. Avietar (talk) 13:26, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Hair color
Dabi's manga hair color isn't necessarily confirmed white. It could be pink for all we know

So I think the "White (Manga)" part in his infobox should be removed for now

 * Heyo, I agree and was thinking the same thing myself. I brought it up with a few other staff members and we've opted to take it out until we receive a colour page or something similar. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! 『   Zen  . 』  talk  16:50, 9 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Looks like it was cleared up in chapter 291 so it's been put back~ 『   Zen  . 』  talk  17:47, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Possible small inaccuracy in Personality section
In the personality section it uses the following statement 'His broadcast has also shown his steadfast belief in heroes: they use their good actions to hide and justify all their sins and use the public's admiration of them to keep it that way.' to describe how Dabi sees Heroes, but the word use seems slightly incorrect where it says 'His steadfast belief in heroes' which doesn't fit the tone of the sentence or concept of the statement, shouldn't it say 'His steadfast beliefs ABOUT heroes' instead since thats what the quote is describing?

Error in Abilities
A correction to the "Quirk" subsection of "Abilities" regarding Dabi's summoning of ice powers. The citation [9] to Ch. 387 to claim that Blueflame is of similar composition to Half-Cold, Half-Hot is incorrect. The specific dialogue used by Endeavor prior to the reveal of Dabi having ice covering the inside of his body was to specifically differentiate this occurrence with that of a quirk evolution, and to state that Dabi summoned the ice power in order to keep himself alive. Quote, "On the other hand, people can also...summon absurd power in a crisis...when it's do-or-die. That's different than a quirk awakening. That power only manifests as the reaper draws near. directly from the English VIZ translation of Ch. 387. This highly implies that Dabi is only manifesting the ice powers because otherwise his internal organs would burn, and that he could not, for instance, form ice structures or use the powers of the Frost quirk the way that Shoto can. Rather, Dabi is summoning ice powers as part of the genetic potential of his quirk factor, but only as a temporary force to maintain his survival. In my opinion, this deserves correction because it may lead to a misunderstanding of the themes being conveyed in the Todoroki subplot. Endeavor isn't wrong to have neglected Toya because he did turn out to be a "success" by having the powers of both fire and ice, but because Toya is his son.
