Well… So much for my Tartarus theory. But, I did say there’s only two things that could make Dabi happy: Something concerning Stain or something concerning Endeavor. Ladies, gentlemen, and all the wonderful folks in-between and beyond! May I present to you, the end of Endeavor’s Pro Hero career!

Dabi is Toya. We all knew, but it’s the timing that’s spectacular. Bravo, Dabi! Your patience was rewarded, Sir. You see, I figured Dabi had amneaia because he hadn’t spilled the beans about his true origin when Endeavor first became the number one hero. Turns out, the eldest Todoroki sibling just wanted daddy to earn the public’s love before destroying it. Smart guy that Toya is!

So, what now? Well, I can see Bakugo defending Endeavor from Dabi’s first attack and verbally slapping Shoto to help since both Todorokis will be in shock for a while. Yeah, yeah, but what about post-battle, you ask? That’s where the juicy stuff will happen after all.

Okay, after months of saying it, we’re reaching the final chapters of this arc.

This is it. Gigantomachia and the League of Villains have reached Shigaraki. The final 5? 10 chapters is starting, maybe? Of course, that’s not accounting for any twists and turns that may happen (We’ll get to that later). For now, let’s look at the line-up:

Villains: Shigaraki, Dabi, Spinner, Mr. Compress, Skeptic, and Gigantomachia.

Heroes: Deku, Endeavor, Shoto, Nejire, Ida, and Bakugo.

Yeah, I know. Bakugo isn’t in the final spread, but you know he’s gonna do something else before this is all over.

Since I already played my hand, let’s look at what the think the final showdown really is:

Villains: Shigaraki, Dabi, Spinner, Mr. Compress, Skeptic, and Gigantomachia.

Heroes: Deku, Endeavor, Shoto, Nejire, Ida, Bakugo, Best Jeanist, Wash, and the Wild Wild Pussycats.

Best Jeanist is a given and we still haven’t seen Wash and the Pussycats since Shiggy’s initial attack. Now would be the perfect time for them to show up.

Told ya he wasn’t dead. Welcome back, Best Jeanist! Or, is it? Maybe it’s someone else like…um… Yeah, I got nothing. It’s Best Jeanist, Y’all. No ifs, ands, or (denim) butts about it.

So, what’s Best Jeanist gonna do where so many other heroes have failed? Well, if you kept up with My Hero Vigilantes like I’ve told you you’d know Best Jeanist has the power to manipulate ALL fibers. Even carbon fiber cables. See…

And, whaddya know, that helicopter has large spools of wire inside. Coincidence? I think not.

My guess is Best Levi’s is gonna try restraining Gigantomachia and hopefully keep him otherwise occupied until that sedative finally starts kicking in.

♫They’re Prowlers in The Brain
Yes, Prowlers in The Brain
One is a genius, the other insane
For One is never nice
Shig’s genes have been sliced
They’re Prowlers, they’re Prowlers in the Brain
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain♫

Narf! It looks like whoever owns the All For One quirk can indeed steal One For All if the wielder has a stronger will. Seems to me AFO could’ve stolen One For All anytime he wanted like I’ve been theorizing, but instead let the power build up enough to suit his needs. That being a body immune to Quirk Singularity. And, all the Lord of Evil needs to do now is help Shigaraki steal it then steal Shiggy’s body. You know, I’m starting to think AFO might be a kleptomaniac.

AFO alluded to killing his twink brother, but wasn’t he trying to recruit him to his side? Hm… Maybe AFO killed The First after he passed One For All to the Second User? If the only reason The Lord of Put Downs cared about his brother was to make him lose his will enough to steal his quirk then I can see that happening.
