It does, we saw that in chapter 6-7, whenever the first day of school test was, when he forced him to not pitch at full power, because crippling yourself makes you a worthless hero.


It's still possibly some quirk - note that Midoriya's mom is a 'fourth generation' according to the first chapter. That makes Midoriya part of the fifth generation of power holders. Assuming that there was some rarity early on, there could easily be sixth, seventh, even eighth generation power holders his age.

All For One is a quirk that takes the power of its holder, and then can be passed downwards, giving the next holder the ability to access the might of all the previous holders. It grows stronger the more generations it is passed down. We don't know what generation of holder All Might himself is, but it's not fair to say it's a 'magic power unrelated to Quirks'.


Even if eight generations isn't enough to justify how amazingly strong they are, you can easily handwave it to say it's stronger than just eight people's strength because reasons, or go with like, Apocalypse from X-Men. A quirk that manifested before quirks became a thing people knew about, just like how Apocalypse was a mutant 4000 years before mutants became a common thing.

I wonder if at some point the collective might from all the previous users of All For One is just not going to be transferable, because at some point no human being would be able to take the strain of the quirk.

Without surgery. They just need to remove the bone fragments inorder to fix him up. Either way Deku's going to have to be content watching the rest of the tournament.

Time skips. Don't you just love how despite they're supposed to bring the fights closer most of time you're also stuck in a flashback too. Basically rendering the time skip pointless since the plot people are having the characterization bouncing everywhere and the action guys are having the sequences broken up by said flashbacks.

I get kind of tired of people rushing to smugly adjust their glasses and go "HEH *snort* just use GUN" every time cape stuff is discussed. Also Worm is loving terrible and I might rip out my own eyes the next time I see some chucklefuck kramer into a thread to shill it.

Although re: does Japan have a military: am I misremembering or weren't those huge robots from the entrance exam (and at Tartarus) said to be sold to the JSDF?

Was it that movie or sometime in the series where we see All Might shrug off a bunch of automatic fire like it isn't even there? I feel like I remember this.
The only people I know that are that into worm seem to be subsections of certain websites. In terms of comic book fandoms I never heard of Worm being mentioned.

I think so regarding the film, but I haven't watched it in a while so I can't give a timestamp and name of film for proper citation.
