Random BNHA opinions
Something like this technically belongs in a blog post but I don't feel like making one (this is also partially bc I can't write comments on articles so I'm writing everything here instead)
 * King Explosion Murder/Lord Explosion Murder is a good hero name, you guys are just mean
 * Same goes for Alien Queen btw though Pinky is cool too
 * Speaking of hero names I definitely don't want Kacchan to be Bakugo's hero name, no thank you (I'm honestly surprised Bakugo still lets Deku call him that)
 * Also I wouldn't mind either way if Todoroki keeps his current hero name "Shoto" or gets a new one (though Icy Hot is kinda ridiculous tbh, I know people mean it as a joke/meme but still)
 * btw Eraser Head is a terrible hero name I blame Present Mic
 * I prefer the full title My Hero Academia, but when it comes to acronyms I prefer BNHA for some reason (maybe bc I see people using that one more so I'm more used to it...?)
 * I don't want Hisashi Midoriya to be a villain (and especially not All For One... e u g h) but at the same time I don't want him to be too normal either?? Like I want him to have some significance in the story without being outright evil
 * Like no offense to people who like the AFO = Deku's dad theory but the mere idea of AFO being related to Deku in any way (and/or having a connection with Inko Midoriya) absolutely disgusts me
 * If the traitor is any of Class 1-A's students (other than Mineta lol) I'm gonna be mad
 * Wait actually if the traitor is literally anyone other than Mineta then I'd be upset lmao
 * I want AFO to be the "final boss" instead of Shigaraki just bc I want to see Deku beat the hecc outta him
 * Though if Shigaraki kills AFO himself sweet sweet revenge and then becomes the final boss then... that'd be acceptable I guess
 * Alternatively: Deku and (redeemed??) Shigaraki combo attack on AFO and kill him instantly
 * I'm not really a fan of Class 1-B except for Itsuka Kendo and discount Kirishima I mean Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu
 * Actually I'm fine with them now I think, also I used to think Neito Monoma was annoying but he's hilarious now
 * I haven't read Vigilantes yet but Chizome Akaguro looks better as Stendhal than as Stain
 * I don't really understand why some people complain about Deku getting "too much" focus I mean... I like the other characters too but Deku's literally the main protagonist??? Like of course he'd get the most focus
 * I don't want Shigaraki to kill All Might, but if that does end up happening then Deku better kill AFO
 * I don't think Mirio should stay Quirkless, he deserves to get his Quirk back after everything he's done
 * I can't believe Shigaraki is (1cm) shorter than Todoroki
 * I also can't believe Dabi is the exact same height as Todoroki
 * I can however believe Dabi is taller than Shigaraki, what I can't believe is that they're only 1cm apart
 * I can't believe Gentle Criminal is a year older than Aizawa
 * I also can't believe Twice is the same age as Aizawa
 * I really enjoyed the first movie but I don't like how AFO was shoehorned in the plot at the last minute it made me hate him more
 * I think Iida looks better with blue eyes than with red eyes
 * I also think Shigaraki looks better with light blue hair than with white/gray hair, imo he looks a little blander with white hair since the rest of his color scheme is already mostly black (with a little red)
 * I also also think Aizawa's eyes when he's activating Erasure looks better as red than yellow
 * All Might's appearance in Jump Force makes me very uncomfortable
 * Jiro is a part of Bakusquad, if you leave her out you're wrong
 * Speaking of which "Bakusquad" feels more like a Kirisquad or Kamisquad tbh (Dekusquad actually feels like a Dekusquad...)
 * I AM VERY VERY VERY HYPED FOR THE SECOND MOVIE
 * I'm curious about who Horikoshi's favorite BNHA character is (idk if he's ever said who his fave is)
 * Kaminari (presumably) doing the Meta Liberation Army's 'L' pose in Chapter 241 is making me worry the "Kaminari = traitor" theory might be true oh god please no
 * Chapter 242 actually brought up the whole traitor thing and now I'm even more concerned
 * Chapter 263 might've killed Kaminari = traitor so now all I need is for Hagakure = traitor to die too (or just straight up confirm Mineta = traitor already since the chapter also added some fuel to that theory)
 * So many people want Kaminari (or Ochaco/Kirishima/Tsuyu/etc.) to be the traitor bc they think the traitor's identity should be "impactful" or whatever but like... I'm pretty sure the biggest reason why the traitor is even a thing in the first place is bc Horikoshi needed someone in Class 1-A to be replaced by Shinso. And Mineta is the one who's most perfect to be replaced bc his negative traits far outweigh his positives (even "irrelevant" characters like Hagakure, Koda and Sato have more likable traits than him)
 * Also "Mineta's too much of a joke character" can't be used as an argument against him being traitor anymore bc Ujiko is one of the most evil villains in the series and he's been making a ton of silly face expressions plus Mineta isn't even actually funny he's just gross
 * I can't believe can't-ya-see-kun has his own page on this wiki
 * Class 1-A + Eri's Christmas outfits in Chapter 242 were so cute omg
 * It's probably too late for me to say this but I'm disappointed Chitose Kizuki was killed (and so early too)
 * And now I'm worried that Mirko will die in the hospital raid as well Hori pls no
 * tbh I don't really want any of the heroes (as in both students and pros) except you-know-who to die in the Paranormal Liberation Raid... I'm fine with some villains dying though as long as it's not Shigaraki/Dabi/Toga
 * Welp... Crust ended up dying (way earlier than I expected too)... :( tbh I didn't really care about him at first but I legit felt sad when he sacrificed himself to save Aizawa. And I'm sure more heroes will follow him now
 * Let's just hope none of the students again except you know who are killed. Hori pls,,
 * I'm fine with X-Less and other "nameless" heroes dying though lol, should've mentioned that earlier
 * btw I didn't bring up Twice's death (which I also felt sad about) earlier bc since he was killed by Hawks of all people, there's a good chance he actually got Best Jeanist'd (meaning if Best Jeanist turns out to be alive then Twice might too)
 * Centipeder's voice in the anime was... unexpected to say the least
 * I feel like the Endeavor Agency Arc ended a lot earlier than I expected Toya/Dabi backstory when
 * If Shigaraki's actually getting multiple Quirks then I kinda hope one of them is some kind of telekinesis, at the very least it would be useful for him to be able to move things around without accidentally decaying them, also it would look cool ig
 * Bonus points if it's a Quirk stolen from Deku since it's kinda similar to Inko's Attraction of Small Objects Quirk (though I'm not really a fan of the "Deku's Quirk got stolen as a kid" theory)
 * This dream sequence might be hinting at how Shigaraki now has either telekinesis or a gravity based Quirk? It's got the same vibes as this
 * I hope the series will introduce a character based on rubberhose animations (I just think they're neat)
 * Just realized that the Shie Hassaikai Raid is actually a positive example of "all for one" (all the heroes trying their best to save one girl) 🤔
 * There have also been negative examples of "one for all" like All Might being the sole Symbol of Peace having bad consequences after his retirement
 * Gee it's almost as if "one for all" and "all for one" have to be together and in balance instead of just sticking to one or the other 👀 hint hint wink wink
 * I'd rather Hawks die than become a villain (I mean I don't want either of them to happen but if I had to choose one...)
 * Another theory that I'm not a big fan of: Bakugo (and/or another character, usually Kirishima) time traveling to the past and becoming one of the OFA users pls no imagine all the paradoxes it could create
 * The only thing I do like about this theory is the Bak-U-Go (back you go) pun
 * I've seen someone else (on Tumblr I think) point out a pattern with Shigaraki: whenever he goes up against heroes he always loses, but when he goes up against villains he always wins. almost as if he's actually destined to be a n anti hero that beats up villains I wonder if that will also be the case for the Big Battle/"Day of Reckoning" (the whole going up against heroes and losing thing) probably not but who knows
 * Something else that might support Shigaraki/the villains losing: the U.A. Beginnings Saga has a total of 9 story arcs, while the Rise of Villains Saga so far has 8 completed story arcs with the current arc being the 9th... (makes sense since 9 is a recurring number in the series like the 9 in Izuku, Nine, the number of lieutenants of the Paranormal Liberation Front, etc.) and since the current saga is all about the villains rising up (even when we consider the saga names being noncanon) the only thing left for them to do now is fall down not the best explanation but whatever
 * Also the more I think about it the more it seems like the villains winning is too... predictable imo
 * Alternatively things will happen in a way that the other villains believe they've basically won, but Shigaraki himself will consider it to be a loss, for whatever reason this belongs in the theory section at this point but eh
 * Even though Shigaraki's one of my favorite characters, I gotta admit he can look super ugly depending on how he's drawn Hori and his inconsistent art style smh
 * Horikoshi might not do the 2nd and 3rd years??? N O
 * Ok I know this isn't confirmed but still, I really don't want Hori to end the "Academia" part of the story this early, not until like the end of the series
 * I wonder if Shigaraki can decay Gentle's elastic air
 * Can't believe Hawks got a left eye scar before Dabi (not counting the scars on both eyes) smh inb4 Hawks becomes a replacement for Toya Todoroki
 * Has anybody ever called Kaminari calamari yet. Is that fan nickname a thing
 * I really want to see a villain version of this picture (it could probably only be made after the Meta Liberation Army Arc and Dabi = Toya reveal are aired on the anime)
 * I hate how so many people want a bunch of major/relevant characters to be killed off for ~raising the stakes~ or ~impact~ or whatever no that's what you call wasting characters and their potential just for shock value
 * Present Mic punching Ujiko is the most satisfying and amazing thing ever now all I need is Shigaraki punching both AFO and Ujiko like that, many many times oh also Mineta being punched like that by everyone
 * I'm actually kinda disappointed that AFO's hair turned out to be white tbh, I was hoping his color scheme would be more similar to Overhaul for parallel reasons (like Shigaraki and Eri)
 * I don't get why many people think All Might should die like what Sir Nighteye foresaw... I mean it's not impossible but it would render the whole "the future can be changed" thing established near the end of the Shie Hassaikai Arc completely pointless

Random BNHA theories/predictions
I might actually move this to a blog post at some point bc this section has gotten too long I'm too lazy though

These don't really have solid evidence, they're just for fun lol (also I don't necessarily believe in all of these)

Warning for scanlation spoilers & Heroes Rising spoilers I haven't watched the movie yet but I came across some on Twitter that I just had to include here

(as for why Momo: she looks similar to Nana and shares a similar name pattern, and her Creation is opposite of Shigaraki's Decay) Toga hates herself -> Her desire to become someone else increases -> Her obsession with blood worsens (as her Transform can only be activated by drinking blood) -> She kills someone and drinks their blood and transforms into them -> She enjoys at first but later regrets and feels guilty -> The guilt makes her hate herself even more -> Repeat (they could still have parallels like Ochaco & Toga, Eri & Shigaraki and Kirishima & Dabi but they won't be THE counterparts) (oops no Kirishima; this is mostly based on how Tsuyu is part of the evacuation team along with the main 5 which might lead to her being cemented as a main character, also this exists) (idk if this would even be physically possible?? Then again this is BNHA we're talking about so anything can happen lol) (I know blond and dark hairs are really common in the BNHA universe but it's the fact that they're each specifically grouped into trios that matters) (don't get me wrong I still hate any time travel theories I actually cringed while writing this but this is just an idea that popped in my head some time ago, I don't think they [or Bakugo] even have 2 or 3 in their names anyways )
 * Shigaraki, Dabi, and/or Toga (the big 3 "main trio" of the League of Villains) will be redeemed HORIKOSHI PLEASE
 * Toga is related to a hero (so basically the LoV's main trio are all related to heroes in some way)
 * Toga is unable to transform into anyone she's related to, which is how the point above will be revealed
 * If someone were to gain both One For All and All For One, the Quirks will cancel each other out and make the user effectively Quirkless (either the Quirk Factors will destroy each other OR the Quirks will remain dormant but unusable within the user, if the latter's the case then the user may still be able to sense the presence of OFA's (and possibly even AFO's) predecessors and have dreams of them)
 * This is how Deku will defeat the final boss (Shigaraki or AFO) by forcibly passing on OFA to him, though Deku himself will still be able to use OFA for some time
 * Alternatively: if someone gains both OFA and AFO, the Quirks will merge and become a new more powerful Quirk (All For All? One For One? All For One For All? One For All For One?) (All For All would be the best name imo, it's just short enough and it carries the meaning of "all heroes work together to save all people" or "All Quirks for All people")
 * Deku and (redeemed?) Shigaraki will give each other OFA/AFO to combine their Quirks and finally truly kill defeat AFO
 * This might've technically been foreshadowed by Ujiko telling Shigaraki he'll be able to get his hands on OFA in Chapter 246
 * This will reflect the fact that "all for one" and "one for all" are originally from a single phrase that ultimately has a positive meaning, hence the combined Quirk being used heroically
 * Overhaul will be turned into a Nomu
 * All Might will remain alive by the end of the series OR he'll die but not the way Sir Nighteye predicted
 * AFO has a 'zero/none' pun somewhere in his real name
 * Dabi will lose his left eye (as a parallel to Todoroki's and Endeavor's scars around their left eyes, but since Dabi already has scars near both his eyes he'll lose an entire eye instead)
 * Shigaraki will be saved (from whatever danger he's in at that moment) by Deku at some point
 * Shinso will play a part in defeating Gigantomachia (since Shinso can alter his voice he'll be able to make himself sound like AFO and trick Gigantomachia into getting brainwashed)
 * Class 1-A will form a Hero Team after graduating and becoming Pro Heroes
 * AFO had a hand in Shigaraki killing his whole family (or at least believing he killed them)
 * Some/all of those hands aren't even actually from Shigaraki's family members
 * The hands are actually from the 7 predecessors of OFA
 * The one surviving hand is from either AFO's brother, Nana Shimura, or the 2nd or 3rd user
 * One of the OFA users had at least 3 hands which is how AFO had kept a total of 15 hands, but it's not actually their Quirk (just one of those "mutant" features unrelated to Quirk) so Deku won't grow an extra hand or something
 * It's now been possibly confirmed/implied in Chapter 270 that at least one of the hands is Nana's but we still don't know about the rest
 * Or they might be a mix of Shigaraki's family's + OFA predecessors: 1 (Hana) + 2 (Nao) + 1 (Chizuo) + 1 (Mako) + 1 (Kotaro) + 1 (Nana) + 6 (1 hand each from remaining predecessors) + 1 (mystery extra hand?? Likely from a predecessor that isn't Nana) = 14
 * The random dude in a suit at the beginning of the flashback in Chapter 235 is actually AFO (who has already given Shigaraki his Quirk at that point)
 * While Deku will become the greatest hero, Bakugo will become the #1 hero
 * Alternatively, Deku and Bakugo will share the #1 spot on the Hero Billboard Chart
 * Shigaraki will become Quirkless (regardless of whether the OFA + AFO = Quirkless theory above is true or not) near the end of the series (opposite of how Deku was Quirkless at the beginning but later gained a Quirk)
 * If/when Best Jeanist retires from being a hero, he will become a hero costume designer (if he isn't killed by Hawks that is)
 * All Might's sclera actually did change from white to black as he aged, this is a "mutant" feature that he inherited (like Mina's black sclera + horns and Tokoyami's bird head which have nothing to do with their Quirks)
 * There is was a Twice clone somewhere out there who managed to escaped during the whole clone fight
 * This Twice clone is currently working worked with the heroes and made the fake Best Jeanist that Hawks used to trick Dabi
 * Eri will grow a second horn (on the left side of her forehead) that lets her "fast-forward" living beings
 * Dabi's backstory will be similar/parallel to Kirishima's (we already know they both dyed their hair, or at least Dabi presumably dyed his hair from red to black while in Kirishima's case it's the other way around, their hairstyle also became pointier, they've both hurt themselves with their Quirks, and they were both inspired by someone [ Crimson Riot for Kirishima and Stain for Dabi])
 * Hawks' role in Dabi's backstory might've been similar to Mina's role in Kirishima's (doing something that Dabi/Kirishima has failed to do?)
 * There will be a character whose Quirk doesn't affect characters that are currently Quirkless and/or characters that were born Quirkless
 * Shigaraki's hair will grow long enough for him to tie it up like Nana's hair
 * Momo is Shigaraki's younger sister who got separated from the Shimura family at a young age and adopted by the Yaoyorozu family (so the LoV's main trio + AFO all have at least 1 younger sibling)
 * Since Kotaro is already a big hypocrite (despite resenting Nana for hurting him he's hurt his own family even worse) it makes sense for him to send Momo for adoption/foster care like what Nana did to him, except he likely did it for more selfish reasons
 * AFO's Quirk-stealing Quirk is a combination of a Quirk-copying Quirk and a Quirk-erasing Quirk he inherited from each of his parents, while his brother's transferring Quirk was a mutation
 * Dabi will unlock ice powers (possibly at some point after losing his left eye [so he'd only have 1 blue eye on the right side, visually it would be opposite to Todoroki's left eye being blue] if that actually happens) but it will obviously be weaker than Todoroki's
 * The Todoroki family's fire powers are connected to their blue eyes somehow, so if/when Dabi loses his left eye he'll lose his fire powers on his left side and instead gain ice powers in its place (so he'd really be like an opposite, unbalanced version of Todoroki basically)
 * Dabi's natural hair color will also change so it's white on his left side and red on his right side but the change won't be visible until his black hair dye is removed/faded obviously
 * Or his hair will turn pink (if it wasn't already pink in the manga that is)
 * If Dabi loses both his eyes or Todoroki loses his left eye then they'd lose all their fire powers and be able to use ice powers on both sides, but if Endeavor loses both his eyes then he'd be effectively Quirkless
 * Geten is related to the Todoroki family
 * Shigaraki will find out about Dabi's past and try to get him to kill his whole family (instead of just Endeavor)
 * But Dabi will refuse to do so which will obviously make Shigaraki frustrated/angry
 * Best Jeanist is still alive (his corpse that Hawks showed Dabi is fake)
 * Eri's Rewind's power is accumulated from eating sugar (her horn grew after eating a candy apple)
 * Sato will play a part in helping Eri control her Quirk since his Sugar Rush is also activated by sugar
 * Mineta is the traitor I just HAD to include this
 * After Mineta is revealed to be the traitor (and kicked out of U.A. or killed or whatever) Shinso will take his place in Class 1-A (well 2-A now ig)
 * Shinso is being set up as Mineta's replacement not only as a Class A student, but also as one of Kaminari's friends (hence their interaction in the Joint Training Arc)
 * Since Mineta apparently still wants to be a hero he's actually planning to either betray the LoV/PLF or just never get caught as traitor ever, however he will fail
 * Another character will point out that in hindsight it was actually pretty obvious that Mineta's the traitor bc it is obvious, he's literally the least heroic character in UA
 * Not only is he the most obvious suspect, he's also the least obvious at the same time bc of his goofy appearance (though Slidin' Go also looks goofy and he's a traitor) and personality (he's either faking it or just genuinely incompetent) which makes him perfect for the role of the traitor
 * Speaking of Slidin' Go there are actually visual similarities between him and Mineta (especially in their hero costumes) and while they don't necessarily have to be related (I don't think they are anyways) this could be a parallel that hints at Mineta being the traitor
 * If the traitor is someone other than Mineta, they will be redeemed
 * Deku's last fight in the Shie Hassaikai Arc is foreshadowing what his final battle at the end of the series will be like:
 * Deku will "save" Shigaraki (parallel with Eri)
 * All Might (parallel with Mirio) will also be involved in saving Shigaraki, though he'll sacrifice something of his in the process (since he's already Quirkless unlike Mirio, he may lose his life instead)
 * Shigaraki will help Deku defeat AFO (parallel with Overhaul)
 * After the fight, Eri will significantly harm AFO in some way (parallel to how Shigaraki cut off Overhaul's arms) likely either by rewinding his Quirk (which turned out to be a copy so it might be easier to get rid of than the original?) or himself into nonexistence
 * The "destruction of the LoV" mentioned by Spinner in Chapter 222 hasn't happened in the MLA Arc (it's not referring to the creation of the PLF) and will happen later
 * There will be some kind of conflict/battle between Toga and Iida (since Toga has crushes on Deku, Ochaco, and Stain she'll hate Iida when she finds out he's bffs with Deku and Ochaco and started the fight against Stain that led to him getting locked up; alternatively she could fall in love with him instead for basically the same reasons but that would be way too repetitive at this point )
 * Toga secretly hates herself, which is why she's so obsessed with becoming someone else that she loves
 * Toga's character arc will involve her learning to love herself (regardless of if she'll be redeemed or not)
 * She's trapped in this cycle of sorts (which she has to break free from eventually):
 * Toga's constant smiling and her telling herself she's "happy" and "normal" are her coping mechanism (trying to repress her self hate and guilt)
 * Dabi will claim that his [the whole "driven to villainy" part of his backstory] wasn't unfortunate/tragic like what Toga and Shigaraki did with theirs (Toga said she's "not unfortunate at all" and Shigaraki said him killing his family "wasn't a tragedy")
 * Toga's "hero counterpart" (like how Shigaraki's is Deku and Dabi's is Todoroki) is Bakugo, not Ochaco, and this is foreshadowed by their MLA opponents' and hero counterparts' Quirks:
 * Shigaraki's opponent Re-Destro's Stress is an accumulation Quirk that makes him stronger, forms markings on his body and even has percentages, as is Deku's OFA
 * Dabi's opponent Geten's Quirk is ice manipulation, as is part of Todoroki's Half-Cold Half-Hot
 * Toga's opponent Chitose's Landmine causes explosions, as does Bakugo's Explosion (even Chitose's Curious Flattener is kinda similar to Bakugo's Grenadier Bracers)
 * Toga and Bakugo being counterparts will have something to do with 1. their self esteem issues (see Toga hates herself theory above) 2. how their Quirks affected the way others treated them and 3. possibly how their Quirks affected their personalities negatively (making them more violent)
 * It makes sense for Toga and Bakugo to be counterparts since Toga, Shigaraki, and Dabi are the LoV's main trio while Bakugo, Deku, and Todoroki are the main trio on the hero/UA side (main quartets if you add AFO and All Might [obviously counterparts of each other] to each side respectively)
 * Ochaco, Iida, Kirishima, etc. probably don't even have counterparts bc they're not as important as the main trio/quartet, same goes for less important villains like Twice, Mr. Compress, Spinner, etc.
 * Though if they do have counterparts then maybe they're: Ochaco & Mr. Compress (in it for the money [at least Compress was the one who most complained about the LoV's poverty in Chapter 220] but still care for their teammates), Iida & Twice (energetic and comical, often loud and making lots of hand gestures, plus their family members were crippled/killed by villains), and Tsuyu & Spinner (similar Mutant Quirks meaning they likely faced similar discrimination)
 * Either this or Iida & Spinner (something something Stain) and Kirishima & Twice (energetic, friendly and loyal) or Twice has no counterpart if he's actually perma-dead
 * Also possibly foreshadowed by this poster: Shigaraki is facing Deku, Dabi is facing Todoroki also one of Dabi's eyes is obscured which means they're totally foreshadowing him losing an eye, and Toga is facing Bakugo even though they could've had her face Ochaco instead (plus AFO facing All Might). Ochaco, Iida, and Kirishima are facing 2 random villains bc again, they don't have their own villain counterparts, and even if they do they'll clearly be less important I think I'm starting to sound like I'm suggesting Toga and Dabi might potentially be more relevant than Ochaco (not that I actually believe that... unless?)
 * It's worth noting it's been established earlier in the series that Bakugo won't underestimate/go easy on an opponent just bc they're a girl
 * Hawks will try to "save" Dabi (after learning about his past) but be killed by Geten (based on the whole "Icarus flying too close to the sun" myth that everyone already loves comparing Hawks and Dabi [and/or Endeavor] to, but what really killed Icarus was the ocean where he drowned; ice is basically solid water)
 * Bonus points if Geten creates ice by freezing an entire ocean during his fight with Hawks
 * Toga's sibling(s?) is attending/will attend UA high school
 * They'll befriend Todoroki and Momo (forming a trio of heroic younger siblings with villainous older siblings; see Momo is Shigaraki's younger sister theory above)
 * Endeavor will sacrifice himself while trying to protect Todoroki and/or Dabi
 * If Twice is offered a chance of redemption, he'll "split" bc he can't choose between being saved (especially if redeemed!Toga or Hawks [oop maybe not him anymore] is the one trying to save him)/quitting being a villain and staying loyal to the LoV
 * If the splitting is somehow literal (becoming 2 different people, maybe by creating a clone that has the evil part of his personality while the original only keeps the good part or vice versa) then Evil Twice will stick with the LoV/PLF while Good Twice will join Hawks and the heroes
 * Dabi and Toga will get Origin chapters
 * The 2 silhouetted OFA users in this scene (likely the 2nd & 3rd) were forced to inherit OFA, so they're more reluctant to help Deku (which is why they're not reaching out towards him), and/or they forced OFA onto the next user
 * And/or they were morally bad/ambiguous in some way
 * Dabi's hair isn't dyed, it got singed to black when he was set aflame back during that incident
 * At some point after finding out Dabi = Toya, Endeavor will have that dream with his family being happy again except this time Dabi/Toya's also there
 * Geten and Re-Destro will be killed by Dabi and Shigaraki respectively
 * Possible parallels between LoV's main trio and the Big 3:
 * Obviously there are 2 guys and a girl in each group
 * Shigaraki & Nejire have light blue hair, Toga & Mirio have blond hair, Dabi & Tamaki have dark hair
 * Quirk parallels:
 * Dabi's Cremation and Nejire's Wave Motion are both Emitter Quirks with repercussions that affect themselves when overused (Nejire gets exhausted and Dabi gets himself burnt)
 * Toga's Transform and Tamaki's Manifest are Transformation Quirks that are activated by consuming a part of what they want to turn themselves (wholly/partially) into
 * Shigaraki's Decay and Mirio's Permeation aren't that similar (other than letting them go through obstacles I guess) but it's possible Decay isn't Shigaraki's original Quirk and/or he'll end up Quirkless like Mirio currently is
 * Hisashi Midoriya will be more similar to Jack Midoriya from the My Hero oneshot and/or prototype Deku
 * Dabi will confront Endeavor when he's alone at his old house
 * Something bad will happen to Nejire (possible parallel between Nejire, Mirio & Tamaki and Oboro Shirakumo, Present Mic & Aizawa respectively based on hair color and personality)
 * The color spread from Chapter 254 has Shigaraki facing backwards while everyone else is facing forwards which could be foreshadowing either:
 * Toga will betray Shigaraki and join the heroes' side and/or
 * Shigaraki's appearance (post surgery) will be changed
 * Ujiko won't be able to steal/copy OFA but he will copy has copied AFO's brother's original Quirk that will has let AFO transfer his original Quirk to Shigaraki which Ujiko and AFO will 100% regret once Shigaraki beats them both to the ground
 * Todoroki, Ochaco, and/or Iida be the next one(s) to learn about OFA probably too obvious but whatever
 * Seeing Shigaraki again will remind Kurogiri of Aizawa
 * All Might will get in a coma instead of dying immediately, while comatose he will also be able to contact Deku through his dreams as a vestige
 * Gentle Criminal, La Brava, and Stain will fight on the heroes' side during the Big Battle
 * Stain's decision will influence Dabi, Toga, and Spinner in some way
 * Possible ways for power-upped Shigaraki to be defeated (if at all):
 * Rewinded by Eri
 * Brainwashed by Shinso
 * Side effects from his operation being incomplete (if it actually gets interrupted):
 * New powers go out of control and/or hurt his body (especially when he overexerts himself)
 * Surgery scars become weak points
 * Powers just stop working all of a sudden during a crucial moment
 * His own emotions will cause him to be reckless/lash out (hurting himself/his allies in the process)
 * Probably really obvious but: Tartarus prison break. It will happen
 * Kotaro also had Nana's Float Quirk which is why he didn't immediately get decayed until Shigaraki grabbed his face
 * There will be infighting within the PLF (Toga clearly hates Skeptic, Dabi doesn't seem to get along with Geten either and Twice doesn't really care for Re-Destro)
 * Hawks will try to redeem Twice (idk if this is technically confirmed or not)
 * Let's just say Shigaraki doing this to Twice (just the fact that Shigaraki's willing to hurt his own teammate for a minor inconvenience) might come back to bite Shigaraki in the future. Not to mention no one else tried to stop Shigaraki or tell him he's going too far, not even Toga, which could have an effect too
 * Spinner and Mr. Compress are always in meetings so they've been interacting less with Twice (they were never his closest friends anyways) while Dabi (who isn't really close to Twice either straight up does not care about Twice), Giran and Toga don't even bother helping Twice with his speech, this could be an early sign of Twice and the other LoV members slowly drifting apart as he becomes closer friends with Hawks (who actually helped him with the speech)
 * And now that Twice has leaked info on the hospital's location to Hawks the other PLF members will definitely give him some flak about it (at the very least, if not any worse punishment) which will further strain Twice's relationships with them
 * Funny how the only LoV member who's coming to rescue(?) Twice in Chapter 264 is also the only one who wasn't present when Shigaraki ripped Twice's mask off huh
 * Yet Dabi's actions and dialogue in Chapter 266 imply that even he cares more about Twice's Double Quirk and potential than Twice himself as a person looks like someone is following his dad's footsteps and sees him more as this useful tool/weapon than a friend, plus Dabi's high five to Twice seems less encouraging and more cold and dismissive (the way it's drawn makes it look like Twice wanted to grab Dabi's hand to stop himself from falling over but Dabi knocked Twice's hand out of the way)
 * This turned out to be 100% true so Dabi definitely wouldn't have stopped Shigaraki from taking Twice's mask if he was there
 * The tragic thing about this is, Shigaraki most likely learned this kind of behavior from being abused by Kotaro and AFO, though of course that doesn't justify Shigaraki's own actions
 * Also the fact that his parents literally died in a villain attack so he likely won't want to become like his parents' killer
 * Hawks isn't the only double agent within the PLF
 * Toya Todoroki's hair was pink (the manga version that is)
 * If Toya's hair was/becomes pink then he'd actually kinda parallel the can't-ya-see-kun, weirdly enough
 * The 2nd and 3rd OFA users are (redeemed?) Dabi and Toga time traveled to the past, that's why the 2nd user has spiky hair (also his gauntlets + neck brace might be some kind of equipment that keeps Dabi's body from getting burned) and their theme colors are blue (Dabi's fire) and red (blood and Toga's scarf) respectively, and the 3rd user looks completely different bc Toga had transformed her appearance before she died
 * OMG I did some research (used this site for reference) and there's a mi from mittsu (3) in Himiko oh noooo but at least Dabi still doesn't have 2 anywhere in either of his names from what I can tell
 * Though To(u)ya does have a tou (10) and a ya from yattsu (8, like Yagi) and 10 - 8 just so happens to be 2 (most likely/hopefully just a coincidence though)
 * ...What if Dabi doesn't have a 2 in his name bc he was forcibly given OFA (can't say for sure until the other predecessors' names and backstories are revealed) like brother (AFO) like brother (OFA)?
 * Since the same Quirk can manifest differently depending on the person (see Chapter 193) Dabi's Cremation will manifest as a fire breath (and a weaker ice breath if the "Dabi will unlock ice Quirk" theory is true) bc Deku has Hisashi's genes, this way Deku's Quirk won't overlap with Todoroki's idk why I'm adding details to a theory that I hate
 * Ironically (in multiple ways!!) Deku will unlock Dabi's Cremation when he's trying to protect Hisashi from someone/something (Hisashi will be shocked and assume Deku inherited his Fire Breath)
 * omg what if Deku's face turning into All Might's in like 2 scenes (and Deku's hero costume resembling All Might's hair, and all the times baby Deku wore an All Might hoodie) are actually foreshadowing Deku unlocking Toga's Transform and literally turning into All Might, bc OFA improved Transform so it can also be activated by eating someone's hair ngl the mental image of Deku panicking about suddenly turning into All Might is freaking hilarious
 * Season 4 finale: the spiky haired OFA user is glowing red Me: no fear Toya: has red hair in the anime Me: one fear
 * The other silhouetted user is glowing purple which isn't really a color associated with Toga but it could just be the theme color of whoever she transformed into though it doesn't matter anyways bc I don't want this theory to be true
 * In Heroes Rising the red silhouette has red eyes (like Bakugo 😬) and the purple one has yellow eyes (like Toga 😬😬 is that why they're presumably hero/villain counterparts ) though since All Might's vestige's eyes are yellow like the rest of his body, not blue, the eye colors of the silhouettes may not necessarily be the same as their real appearance either also a red spiky haired silhouette having blue eyes would be a dead giveaway that it's Toya tbf
 * It is weird that the purple silhouette is the only vestige (not counting Nana who's in full color) whose eye color is different from their body color. Almost as if the outer appearance (body) doesn't match the soul (eyes) ie. Toga disguised as someone else god I HATE how well this fits
 * If AFO recognized present-time Dabi and Toga as the 2nd and 3rd OFA users, he could've had Ujiko and another subordinate (whoever trained Toga) interact with them respectively to subtly push them in the direction of villainy, then had Giran recruit them so that they'd end up as his successor's underlings (he didn't put as much effort in making Dabi and Toga villains as he did with Shigaraki, bc if he fails to make those 2 villains he can always just kill them instead)
 * Wait didn't Dabi and Toga appear as silhouettes in Sora ni Utaeba too fOrEsHaDoWiNg
 * There's a connection between Oji Harima and Takami the thief
 * Someone will be falsely accused of being the UA traitor
 * More specifically Kaminari will be accused, likely by the real traitor (Mineta?), there may be other characters that are accused (ie. Hagakure bc of her Invisibility) but Kaminari will be the top suspect
 * The first time we see Mineta and Kaminari hang out is in the U.A. Sports Festival Arc, which takes place after the U.S.J. Arc where the traitor made their first move, so it's possible that Mineta befriended Kaminari to observe him closer for any mistakes he make to use as "evidence" for accusing Kaminari of being the traitor (this would also be where Mineta's supposed high intelligence will come into play)
 * The High-End Nomu in Ujiko's lab haven't been programmed to be obedient to the villains yet, so when they're unleashed they'll attack people on both sides (it's especially suspicious that Ujiko was shown to be willing to just abandon them instead of siccing them on the heroes after it was specifically mentioned that the Nomu will be easier to capture when there's no one to command them)
 * Not only did Ujiko say the High-Ends were still in their testing phase, but the fact that Mocha used his Quirk without any commands is another alarming piece of foreshadowing
 * Woman seems to be the smartest of the Nomu so she'll likely be the first one to think of attacking a villain, probably Shigaraki after he breaks out
 * And the "Nomu listen to command" thing is brought up again in the exact same chapter where Shigaraki (a powerful opponent that the High-Ends would love to fight) is awakened
 * ...Is this technically neither confirmed nor debunked now (all the Nomu seemingly died before they could get a chance to attack a villain?? Though we've only really seen one actually die so who knows)
 * Shigaraki will almost die bc of his power-up malfunctioning (ie. his new Quirks stop working when he's midair and cause him to fall from a great height) then be saved by All Might (turning into his Muscle Form one last time) while the other heroes are hesitant to save a villain like Shigaraki and the other villains are too busy trying to escape
 * This would parallel/contrast the Sludge Villain Incident where this time Deku is the hesitant one (even if he's unlocked Float by that point) while All Might is the only one rushing to save Shigaraki
 * It would also obviously parallel/contrast Shigaraki's childhood past where AFO was the only one who tried to "save" Shigaraki
 * This will be what leads to All Might's death or coma
 * The sight of this (the legendary former #1 hero risking his own life to save one of the most notorious villains despite everything he's done??) will have a huge impact on both heroes and villains, as well as the society as a whole, and of course Shigaraki himself
 * Might /Might+U will play in this scene in the anime
 * I will cry if this actually happens
 * Shigaraki's possible (immediate) reactions:
 * Kill All Might disappointing but not surprising (either intentionally, or maybe accidentally by instinctively hugging him)
 * Freak out and run away
 * (If All Might got trapped under rubble or something) Save All Might by using Decay Quirk, instinctively without thinking, then freak out and run away
 * This would be a (kinda reversed) parallel of what happened with Deku and Ochaco in the U.A. Entrance Exam where Deku saved Ochaco from being crushed by a robot when she's trapped under rubble (while everyone else was running away) and Ochaco saved Deku (who got hurt from using his new power too hastily) from falling to death
 * The last scene in Chapter 269 where the heroes declare that "the Devil's dream will end" may be hinting at how AFO is the "Devil" (not Shigaraki like the heroes are probably assuming), and regardless of which side wins by the end of this arc, AFO's dream will eventually end bc of Shigaraki's worldview slowly starting to crumble after being saved by All Might of all people and saving him with his Decay that he was manipulated into believing was only meant to destroy. All thanks to Shigaraki being released early in that specific chapter
 * Deku and All Might promised each other that they'll defy fate together. Deku has defied his fate, not completely on his own but with Eri's help. All Might will defy his own fate with Shigaraki's (albeit kinda unintentional) "help" (cue AFO sensing this happening and his smile slowly turning into a frown)
 * Speaking of Eri, Shigaraki wrapping himself in a red cape in Chapter 272 oddly kinda parallels Eri being wrapped in Mirio's red cape I would've never made this connection if X-Less' cape was literally any other color
 * Mawata Fuwa will be relevant at some point (pretty obvious now that she has her own profile but then again doesn't the can't-ya-see-kun also have his own profile...? Just learned the KEEEE guy has his own profile too so :/ still gonna keep this theory just in case though )
 * Hawks didn't kill Twice, there was something (likely from someone else's Quirk, their blood maybe??) he put at the tip of the feather he's carrying that made Twice "fake-die", which is also what happened to Best Jeanist
 * And Twice wasn't fully unconscious during this. So he heard everything Dabi said to Hawks, from the fact that he doesn't care about the LoV to the possible Toya reveal imagine all the potential drama
 * "Losing trust" has been a recurring theme for Twice: he's lost trust in society, Overhaul, Hawks, and even himself (though he's regained trust in his clones now). Next up: Twice loses trust in the LoV, starting with Dabi
 * The whole "character that is seemingly dead actually turns out to be alive" seems to be a recurring theme in BNHA (it's happened with AFO, Shirakumo/Kurogiri, technically Shigaraki and possibly Toya/Dabi) so it may happen with both Best Jeanist and Twice too
 * Bonus points if the fake-death Quirk is from Yokumiru Mera, since he's part of the Hero Public Safety Commission, and he always looks like he's about to fall asleep bc he's actually always trying to stop his Quirk from fake-killing him
 * Dabi and Hawks knew each other as kids, that's how Dabi knew Hawks' real name
 * Dabi was part of the same hero training program as Hawks
 * There's some kind of connection between AFO and the Hero Commission (going full circle?)
 * The "Hades" mentioned by Starservant is Dabi, based on Disney's version of Hades (blue fire)
 * Dabi will ultimately be the one most satisfied with the result of the PL War, not only bc of Endeavor's past being exposed but also bc of the losses and destruction on both the heroes and the PLF/LoV's sides, hence "the smile of Hades shines wryly on thee" (and Dabi has been smiling more than usual in this arc...)
 * Deku will figure out that Dabi is Todoroki's brother (reverse of Todoroki assuming Deku is All Might's son in the Sports Festival Arc except in this case Deku is right)
 * The only people Dabi cares about are his biological family (at least Natsuo, probably Rei and Fuyumi too, maybe Shoto???) minus Endeavor obviously
 * Toga was trained by one of AFO's subordinates
 * Dabi likes cold soba (just like his youngest brother!!)
 * Shigaraki will steal Mirko's Rabbit Quirk
 * I really don't want this to happen but there's a scene in BNHA Smash where Shigaraki is wearing rabbit ears and Dabi is wearing cat ears and in Oumagadoki Zoo (another one of Horikoshi's works) there's a rabbit character names Shiina who's apparently similar to Shigaraki... the foreshadowing is too strong
 * Though I guess it's possible Shigaraki and Mirko just both happen to be based on Shiina? Especially since they all have white hair + red eyes and Mirko has a red pillow with white polka dots in her room(?) similar to Shiina's scarf (I've never read Oumagadoki Zoo so idk)
 * ngl I'd love to see a bunny Shigaraki though sjkfljsldf
 * Deku also technically has a bunny motif (his hero costume) so... possible parallels??
 * Mirko will (hopefully) still be able to fight while Quirkless like Mirio oh god I just realized how similar Mirko and Mirio's names are they're like a letter apart
 * Oh my god this might actually happen now that Shigaraki has AFO and Mirko is in the same area oh no-
 * Dabi and Toga used to want to become heroes (like Shigaraki did)
 * Either All Might or Hawks will become the new president of the Hero Commission
 * Ochaco will get some kind of hoverboard activated by her Zero Gravity Quirk (I just think it's neat)
 * Shirakumo will still have black/purple hair and yellow eyes and keep his Warp Gate Quirk which seems more useful than Cloud anyways even after being healed/rewinded
 * Also his new hero name/alias will be Swift Mist or Opti-Mist
 * Shigaraki has no idea that Kurogiri is a Nomu and will only find out when Aizawa and/or Present Mic mentions it
 * Saito in Chapter 225's flashback was defending Toga from bullies (kinda like what Deku tried to do in Chapter 1)
 * This would further set up Toga and Bakugo as foils
 * AFO will compare Shigaraki to Nana at some point
 * AFO's true face reveal is being saved for some big moment where he gets healed/rewinded in present time
 * Deku teaming up with another character is supposed to be a recurring theme in the movies (Deku & All Might [technically Deku & Melissa Shield too] in Two Heroes and Deku & Bakugo in Heroes Rising), so any future movies will have more Deku duos like Deku & Todoroki, Deku & Ochaco, Deku & Iida, etc. and Deku & redeemed!Shigaraki in the main series finale
 * AFO will betray Ujiko at some point
 * AFO might've already technically "betrayed" Ujiko by lying to him or just not telling him all the truth
 * Aizawa will fight rematches against Shigaraki probably obvious since they're in the same area now, Dabi (the real one this time and not a clone) and Toga
 * This will turn out to be a sign that Aizawa will be important to the LoV trio's character arcs somehow tbh I'm just biased bc I love both Aizawa and the villain trio
 * Shigaraki will go on a Quirk-stealing spree where he takes random heroes' Quirks left and right without considering whether they actually suit him and whatnot, but who cares about that when he's having so much fun (this might have some kind of negative consequence depending on which Quirks he stole and the fact that he was released at 75%)
 * Shigaraki might've stolen X-Less' Laser already
 * If Dark Shadow gets stolen from Tokoyami by anyone, he will be disobedient to whoever stole the Quirk
 * Mon-chan (the corgi) will appear in another one of Shigaraki's dreams (after his redemption maybe??)
 * OFA users who's had the Quirk forcibly given to them don't have the corresponding number in their names (yeah guess I'll write this down as a separate theory, why not)
 * The 1st user's first name is Tomura (like you know who), his name doesn't have a 1 bc he was technically forced to acquire OFA (by AFO forcibly giving him the stockpile Quirk)
 * The Paranormal Liberation War Arc will fully establish the hero/villain counterpart dynamics of the main characters (to reiterate):
 * Deku vs Shigaraki (especially now that Shigaraki has AFO)
 * Bakugo vs Toga (I greatly prefer this over Ochaco vs Toga tbh also all the other possible options for Bakugo's villain counterpart are terrible )
 * Todoroki vs Dabi (especially if the Toya reveal happens this arc)
 * Ochaco vs Mr. Compress (his backstory/motive may be revealed to be similar to Ochaco's this arc)
 * Iida vs Twice (only if Twice is actually alive and gets back up before the end of the arc, I also greatly prefer this over Iida vs Spinner)
 * Tsuyu vs Spinner (again I prefer this over Iida vs Spinner)

Confirmed

 * Deku, Bakugo, and/or Todoroki will defeat Ending (beating a villain faster than Endeavor)
 * The "heroes disappeared from the streets" bc that many heroes are involved in raiding the hospital
 * Ujiko's 4 month operation on Shigaraki will be interrupted somehow
 * And it will be partially Dabi, Toga, and/or Geten 's fault (I guess it's technically Dabi's fault since this wouldn't have happened if he didn't recruit Hawks)
 * X-Less will be killed by Shigaraki too obvious?

Debunked

 * Spinner's Quirk can make things spin around (hence his villain name), he hasn't used it yet since joining the LoV bc he thinks it's ridiculous but the Quirk will actually turn out to be useful/powerful
 * The dinner at Todoroki's house will be crashed (or at least interrupted)
 * Dabi will save Natsuo/defeat Ending
 * The You Say Run leitmotif will be in Jiro's song :(

Images where Iida totally should've been in them but is missing
I may or may not make these for other characters too (like Todoroki or Ochaco)
