Spoilers Off applies to Wild Mass Guessing pages. As such beware of spoilers!
When will the main trio become a polycule.
- Given how Darker and Edgier the story's tone is, they problably won't wait too long, being constantly tossed at life and death situations. Somewhere between the Hero Killer arc and the Summer Trainning Camp arc should problably be.
- Confirmed. The main trio becomes one before the Internships arc, but more people, like Nejire and Melissa are set to join as well.
Other possible polycules.
Because it would make sense for a story with so many foils to introduce other poly relationships to act as such for the main trio. The structure seems to rely on two of them knowing each other since childhood before meeting the third one in the story. The flashfoward of the first chapter actually drops hints about some.- Shoto, Momo and Kyouka. First there is the Ship Tease between Kyouka and Momo starting after the USJ, but also the reveal that Momo and Shoto were Childhood Friends, much like Izuku and Ochako before a fallout between them. So two of them were friends before U.A. before meeting the third one, much the main trio. The flashforward says that Izuku had a lunch with Shoto and Momo a week prior before chapter 1. On a meta example, the author originally wanted to write a side story for Our New Roommate centered around these three, before moving on to other projects, so maybe they found a way make it fit on this story. Not to mention that the relationship tags pairing Shoto and Momo in the A03 tagging system were removed before chapter 17, where the tease between the two girls begun.
- Katsuki, Ejiro and Mina. Because Bakugo is already enough of a foil to Izuku, so being on poly relationship like him would just fit. Plus, if someone needs to act as possible positive influence to the angry blond it would have to be the embodiments of positivity known as Mina Ashido and Ejiro Kirishima. And much like the above, the flashfoward says that Mina and Ejiro are living together and that Katsuki called them to warn he would be late that night.
- Jossed. With Bakugo being kicked out of Hero Course after the Sports Festival, it's not likely they will keep contact. Plus the second flashfoward shows Mina and Eijiro Happily Married and with kids.
- Mirio, Tamaki and Himiko. Since Mirio is becoming a mentor figure to Izuku and Himiko to Ochako, it would make sense for them to help two members of the main trio into overcoming their insecurities and opening up about their feelings.
- Josssed. Himiko is having a Ship Tease with Tsu, while Mirio and Tamaki seen to be exclusive.
The Shie Hassaikai and Humarise will team up.
- Both are organizations lead by men who see Quirks as diseases that must be purged from the world. At least the Eight Precepts is, given Flect Turn's arrest, but the Humarise is said to be operating on Japan, and might try to establish a new cell after the previous one was eliminated by the Consortium, which could lead to a partnership with the Yakuza.
Queen Bee will return and take a new host.
Nezu mentioned in chapter 12 that Kuin Hachisuka/Queen Bee, was extracted from Pop☆Step and, oppose to her canon status, is alive and currently locked up at Tartarus. The flashfoward of the first chapter reveals that Vortex is being taken to "the new Tartarus", which means that much like in canon, there will be a massive prison break at some point in the future. Now, as for possible hosts, a few candidates are:- Nejire. There is the Foregone Conclusion that Izuku will marry Ochako and Itsuka, so unfortunealy the poor girl will have her heart broken. This could lead a case of History Repeats, with Nejire, much like Pop☆Step being emotionally vulnerable to the parasite's influence and becoming the next Queen Bee.
- While the next flashfoward shows reveals that she, alongside Melissa, will eventually join the polycule as well, that doesn't mean it can't happen anyway.
- Yuyu. Given her obvious feelings towards Nejire and her growing anger towards Izuku, there is a good chance the electic girl, in her anger, making a mistake that will lead to her becoming the next host of the parasitic Quirk.
- Confirmed. Queen Bee has escaped Tartarus, but she is currently possessing Camie Utsushimi. Although, that doesn't discard either of the candidates above.
Stain will join the Villain Consortium.
- Given that the Consortium is lead by a brilliant criminal mastermind and has the goal of destroying the current status quo to create a new one, Stain might actually join their cause, even if their alliance don't live past the Hosu arc.
- The fact that the Hero Commission is also using him as a scapegoat for the crimes of other villains (and perphaps their own crimes as well) could help such alliance to happen too.
- Possibly Jossed. Because there may not be a "Hero Killer" to begin with.
The first Quirk Itsuka will unlock will be Float.
- Because she already looks so much like Nana, and there is no specific rule stating that Blackwhip must be the first Quirk to be unlocked by a the user.
How All for One is healthy again.
Chapter 17 reveals that somehow, All for One managed to undo all the damage from his previous fight against All Might, and is still in full capacity. How exactly this happened. There are two things that could reverse that amount of damage:- Overhaul's Quirk. Maybe All for One stroke a deal with the Yakuza, or just cut the middle man and stole Chisaki's Quirk, making himself even more dangerous than before.
- Eri's Rewind, or a variant of it. There is a fan theory that says that after Eri's mom abandoned her, she was abducted by All for One and the Doctor, and that she had a weaker variant of her daughter's Quirk.
- The All for One that fought All Might was actually a clone. All Might says on chapter 18 that the body was cremated after the fight, so the real All for One was just sitting back and watching while a copy was killed. It would fit his personality, making his Arch-Enemy think he is dead, give him false reassurence before coming back at full strenght and crushing his hopes.
- The All for One Quirk evolved to the point it can now drain a person's life force, making him young again.
Who is The Mole?
All for One confirmed in chapter 17, that Aoyama, who is the canon U.A. Traitor, failed the entrance exam. However, there is still a mole inside U.A., altough All for One did not outright said that this person was on Class 1-A. And so, a list of possible traitors follow:- Kaminari, one of the students we saw the least during the attack, convienently sent to a location far away from the plaza.
- Monoma, the author has a particular dislike for the character, and is not that far fatched.
- Half confirmed. Monoma is Kanshi's half-brother and is acting her inside man, but he is not Aoyama's replacement.
- An original character in situation similar to Aoyama.
Teko will help free Eri.
After The Reveal that Teko is an old guard Yakuza, there is a good chance he will find out, maybe trough his son, who works with the Shie Hassaikai, about what Overhaul is doing to Eri, and as favor to The Boss, help free his granddaughter.- Jossed. Teko had nothing to do with Eri's escape. Altough both him and Tenohira recognize her simillarities with the daughter of the Shie Hassaikai Boss.
Tensei will be targeted by the Hero Commission.
- Nezu mentioned that Tensei and his agency are investigating Stain. If he finds out that Stain had nothing to do with the crimes committed by the Consortium, like the heroes that had their Quirks stolen by Nine, this could make him a target for the HSPC assassins. Nine did mentioned that the Commission is still on the business of killing people they deem a threat and swiping under the rug.
- Possibly confirmed. Given Stendhal being a morally ambiguous individual that may have ties with the Commission.
- Ambiguous as of chapter 29. While there is a good chance Tensei will be targeted by the Commission, Stendhal who is definitely not at their side, may end getting to Tensei first.
Nighteye's attempts to force Itsuka to give up on One for All will backfire into the Consortium's favor.
Given how Nighteye is even worse with his "I know what is better for All Might" attitude in this story, there is a good chance this will lead to a massive Nice Job Breaking It, Hero moment. A few suggestions include:- Mirio finding out that Nighteye only trained him so he could be a vessel to One for All and severing ties with him at the worst possible moment.
- The Consortium finding out about One for All.
- Someone, maybe from the main trio, getting seriously injured.
- Likely to happen since Nighteye, in his ultimate selfshiness, decides to go behind All Might's back and reveals the truth about One for All to Mirio in an attempt to get Mirio to side with him.
Camie Utsushimi's reason's for joining The Villain Consortium
Chapter 23 reveals that Camie is the newest recruit to The Villain Consortium and is the filling the same role as Himiko Toga in canon. Considering in canon Himiko mainly became a villain due to her quirk being seen as villainous and being casted out by society. Camie's quirk doesn't immediately jump out as villainous so there is mostly likely other factors for her turn to villainy. Some of her reason(s) for her allegiance may include:- She agrees with Nine's The Social Darwinist ideals.
- Was falling on hard times but was helped by Nine thus gaining her gratitude and loyalty.
- Suffers from a case of Broken Pedestal with Hero Society. Maybe she was a hero hopeful who had her dreams crushed. Maybe she was even a U.A. student that did not took well one of Aizawa's (il)logical ruses. Word of God mentioned in the author notes of chapter 22 that she was originally supposed to be a Class 1-A student, and while it was discarded, so where many ideas that ended up inspiring plotlines that actually made into the story, like Hana surviving Tenko's Quirk Awakening.
- All Jossed. Camie's case of Adaptational Villainy happened because she is being possesed by Queen Bee.
Toya's Survival
Chapter 24 reveals that Toya Todoroki is not only alive but a Pro Hero, which raises questions about the Sekoto Peak incident.- The fire never happened, because Endeavor arrived in time to prevent it from injuring Toya further. That is why only some of his body is covered in scars.
- The fire happened and Toya almost died, but someone else saved and healed him before he could succumb to his injuries.
- All for One, or one of his associates, who saved Toya and returned him to his family only help his hatred towards heroes to grow further, so he when he gets old, All for One has a perfect mole, a resentful Pro Hero who is also the Number Two Hero's son. Because he is petty enough to corrupt Endeavor first born right under his nose.
- The Hero Commission, who took Toya in and made him one of their most loyal agents, to replace Nagant. But he is just playing the long game, and will betray them eventually.
- Confirmed. The fire still happened and Toya came back home months after it, and is currently working for the HSPC, but whether it were them or All for One that saved him, that has yet to be revealed.
Toya's Hero Name
- Something related to the color of his flames: Azure, Indigo, Turquoise...
- Something related to fire: Hellfire, Inferno, Pyre, Dabi, or a similar one to this one would for a dark Continuity Nod...
- Confirmed. Toya's hero name is "Sol" which means "Sun".
Stendhal is working for the Hero Commission
Akaguro is supposedelly an expert on the Hero Killer ainding on the hunt against the villain. However, it's more likely that the "Hero Killer" may as well be a secret identity for Stendhal to conduct assassinations of other heroes that the Commission deems unfit for their plans. He got a sample of Tensei's blood, and Tensei has been sniffing around Commission cases that the organization doesn't want other heroes to look at, like the Trigger theft and the heroes killed by Nine. (See theory above.)- Jossed. The Hero Commission actually wants the Hero Killer dead as well, so if Stendhal is the serial killer, he is not aligned with their agenda. Plus, since no one knows whether Stendhal is the Hero Killer or not, they just decided to get rid of him as well.
The Yaoyorozus are connected to the Meta Liberation Army.
Because it would increase the drama so much if Itsuka is not the only person whose family is connected to a criminal group. And given how the MLA is still a looming presence, it would make sense for them to be connected to a powerful family like the Yaoyorozus.- There is something suspicious about the ordeal regarding the Arranged Marriage between Momo and Shoto. While Momo says that is not a Quirk Marriage, is still very convenient how two teenagers, descendents of wealthy families, born with powerful Quirks, to be promised to each other. This could be the MLA's way of creating ties with the Number Two Hero and attempting to gain more power over hero society, specially now that All Might will retire soon.
- The Yaoyorozu Corps. is a major company with major ties both in and outside Japan, connections with MLA front business like Detnerat, Feel Good Inc. or Shoowaysha Publishing is definitely a possibility. Conveniently enough, a Detnerat commercial airs during the Festival break, on the very chapter Yukiri Yaoyorozu debuts.
- Speaking of Yukiri, the matriarch mentions that she spent most of the time during the break speaking with representives of support conpanies. Detnerat could be one such. Not to mention, Curious is also attending the Festival, which could have led to a talk between the MLA lieutenant and Yukiri.
- Confirmed, but as it turns out, Momo's father, Daikoku, is actually part of a massive Nebulous Criminal Conspiracy known as "The Inner Circle" which the MLA is also a part of.
Curious will recruit new members by the end of the Sports Festival.
It would make sense since Curious is already there, for the MLA to take the opportunity to implant their own moles(s) inside U.A., much like the Consortium. Shinso and Monoma are most likely candidates, since there is a chance they will face grave consequences for their transgressions, specially after their little stunts in the Tag game, could result in the brainwasher being unable to transfer and Monoma being kicked out of the Hero Course.- Jossed, but Monoma is related to Kanshi/Intelli, so he can be a mole, and Shinso might join him on a smear campaign against Class 1-A.
Hisashi is leading the Vigilantes in Japan.
Chapter 30 reveals there is a new vigilante group, composed of the Naruhata Vigilantes as well as Gentle, La Brava and Ippan Josei standing against the Consortium. Ippan mentions their "leader" must know about the Consortium's newest recruits, as well as Nine will receive more Quirks from All for One. This leader is problably someone above suspicious, who operates seemingly off the grid. And which better disguise would it be than a man who seemingly works off Japan for most of his time? Hisashi seems to be getting an important role in the story, plus it would make for some inresting drama, Izuku's father being a vigilante, his (future) stepfather being the Symbol of Peace, and his in-laws being connected to the Yakuza. This could explain why he had to separate from Inko, to keep her and Izuku safe from his illegal actvities. There is also the fact that since Daikoku is definitely a shady man, Hisashi's job overseas may be a way to get insight into whatever seemingly criminal activities the Yaoyorozu patriarch could be involved at.- Jossed. The vigilante's leader is actually Oboro Shirakumo, who escaped his canon fate, although he lost his Quirk in the process.
The story will go Off the Rails during or after the Kamino arc.
Given the heavy amount of changes that happened in the story so far, not to mention how All for One manipulated most of them thanks to his precognition, there is a good chance nothing will be the same after this arc. Such events may include:- A full scale Uprising from the Inner Circle, finally seizing control of society, thus kickstarting this story's version of the War arc, like an invasion of U.A. similar to the one from Disciples Rising.
- Nine and the Villain Consortium pulling an Eviler than Thou against the Inner Circle and taking control of their plans and operations.
