* VillainousBreakdown: A more subdued example, but Shouto thwarting [[SpitefulSuicide Dabi's attempt to destroy the rest of his family alongside himself]] leaves Dabi a melted husk, unable to do anything but weakly rave at his family as his plans to destroy Endeavor and Shouto are forever out of his reach, his body now completely destroyed [[HoistedByHisOwnPetard thanks to the massive amount of firepower he tried to kill everyone with.]]

* CharacterTic: He'll stomp or tap his foot whenever he's feeling impatient or anxious. It's a habit he's had since he was a child and reflects how the root of his hatred towards Enji is out of an intrinsic, juvenile desire to be recognized by him as his ideal son.

* SatanicArchetype: Once an aspiring hopeful hero, Toya became an AntagonisticOffspring that seeks to destroy his father and all his siblings out of [[GreenEyedMonster envy]] for being seemingly forgotten by them much like Lucifer grew to hate humanity for being seemingly replaced as his Father's new favorite "creation" (a derrogatory term Dabi also likes to use to dehumanize Shoto). His survival after being nearly killed by own flames is credit to his [[ThePowerOfHate sheer hatred]], [[TheResenter resentment]] and [[{{Revenge}} desire for revenge]] against those he believed have betrayed him. [[RedRightHand His scars]] give him an appearance reminiscent of death, which he gained from his StartOfDarkness, akin to how Satan became deformed upon falling from grace. Finally, [[PlayingWithFire his flames]] are extremely powerful and [[LightIsNotGood while they burn brightly, they only bring death and destruction along the way]]. Best shown during his final battle against Shoto, where he reduces Hosu to a scorched hellscape, and his appearance becomes straight up demonic in the process.

* SmashTheSymbol: His goal of dismantlingsociety is by revealing his connection and past with Endeavor, the current no. 1 hero and thus the current symbol of Japan people have faith in. By revealing his blood ties as Endeavor's eldest son along with his father's domestic abuse he successfully crushes the faith the public had in heroes and he did it during a war to add salt in the wound.

** Dabi is similar to All For One, even more than Shigaraki. Both are disfigured, both go by an alias, both have the tendency to manipulate people to eliminate problems, and view their comrades as means to an end. Both despise a Number One pro-hero (Endeavor in Dabi's case) and have staged incidents to break their morale and smear their public image. Like All For One, Dabi is UnskilledButStrong, and shares sadistic traits. All For One himself even goes so far as to acknowledge this at one point, though he goes on to note that he's a much better planner, and actually knows how to use people.

Like All For One, Dabi is UnskilledButStrong, and shares sadistic traits. They also share family as a primary drive for their actions, being absolutely obsessed with their father and brother, respectively. When close to death, both even hallucinate talking or being with their family on better terms. All For One himself even goes so far as to acknowledge this at one point, though he goes on to note that he's a much better planner, and actually knows how to use people.

* AllForNothing: His life's mission was to destroy Endeavor and everything he tried to protect, particularly Shoto before [[SpitefulSuicide dying to his own Quirk]]. By the end of the FinalBattle though, after nearly succeeding with his SuperpowerMeltdown, all of his efforts went up in smoke thanks to Shoto and the Todoroki family's Ice Quirks. He wasn't even able to ''die'' (at least not initially), leaving Toya with nothing for his efforts but to weakly curse his family, just about the only thing he ''can'' do anymore, forcing them to continue to pay attention to him and listen to his hatful ravings as the only expression of familial love and [[AttentionWhore attention]] that he so craved that's left to Toya.
