The horse could fly too. A flying silver horse, IIRC.

You'd think the robo-horse would already be enough to mark him as different.

Reminds me of Onimusha 2 where Jubei Yagyu and Oichi find a robot horse left behind by the Oni Clan and they ride on it to their next destination

I like how All Might went to America to get stronger where AFO reach is weaker.

I noticed you said "weaker" instead of "nonexistent".

I want to see his adventures in America. There's a tiny bit in the movie, but it's such a tease. tongue

Well, we've made pretty big headway with Shinso and the One for All vestiges. The only other things that have been lingering for a similar amount of time are the spy, and Izuku's Dad.

I'm not actually super invested in the spy angle but I could see it coming up again soon. And as far as Izuku's Dad goes, Horikoshi did say he'd eventually appear. I personally never really cared that much for that one either, and I very much doubt he's going to be a big deal, but a little personal story with him and the family could be nice, I guess.

I'm still kind of hoping for the long shot "All For One is Deku's Father" if only for the massove irony points. And because, frankly, as much as I get on Horikoshi's case for other things, he is a good writer and has used so many other tired tropes to great effectiveness, so I just want to see what he'd do with it.

I respect your opinion, and also say that would be terrible and I'd hate it forever.

I think the point has passed for when that would have been a viable twist, honestly.

A random thought I had: Since Deku's dad is said to work overseas, All Might actually knew/met him during his time in America, but either never learned his name, only knew him by a nickname, or simply never made the connection when he met Izuku later.

There may be timeline issues to iron out, but it's not like it's likely I'm the first place.

At the very least Hori may make a joke outta that.

I mean the guy’s a gigantic Star Wars fan, it’s prolly entered his mind at some point.

So that All Might Ova shows All Might and Gran Torino training at U.A. when All Might was 18 and, presumably, a third year.

So I'm going to take a guess that when All Might was a third year, Endeavor was a first year, and already getting recognized. It would explain why Gran Torino would call Endeavor "Todoroki" and also why Endeavor would necessarily recognize him in return - he never would have had class with Gran Torino.

Is there any concept art of his dad or is he completely unknown?

If completely unknown, I'll expect him to have a dragon's head or other traits (mutant genetics to go with the quirk) or something similar.

Imagine that as the surprise regarding him...

Deku's father is completely irrelevant to the story, and likely to Deku. When he was fighting Muscular and he thought he was going to die, Deku thought about his mother and he thought about All Might. That speaks volumes.

Yeah, it was a really stupid decision on the Jump Force dev team's part. What would prompt him to automatically assume Piccolo is a villain? The green skin? The antennae? He has a friend and classmate who has pink skin, antennae, and black sclera to boot!

The main joke explanation I've seen is that Deku only read/watched Dragon Ball, but not any of the series after that.

SalFishFin Since: Jan, 2001
#27573: Feb 14th 2019 at 10:43:37 AM

Clearly Dragon Ball is a fictional series within the BNHA universe, but only some of the first few chapters (volumes?) of have survived, and nobody knows Piccolo switched sides.

Edit: or that[up]

Maybe Deku's just angry Piccolo looks better in green?
