Theories and such

Another theory that has no confirmation

I got another strange thought today.
Can AFO take quirks from corpse's?

We know that quirks are genetical part of the human body, and that AFO literally takes away those genetics.

Wouldn't that mean that he can take quirks from dead people?

I don't know.

Lets look at Kai Chisaki, his quirk - overhaul. As we have seen, his quirk was working only with his fingers, maybe even hands. The overhaul, a pretty OP quirk and AFO didn't take it away, meaning that Kai lost it.

Does that mean, that quirks resides in particular parts of the human body? And by destroying those parts, people become quirkless? That is unknown.

Anyway, the real question of this "Chapter" was about AFO's possiblity to take away quirks from dead people.

So, can he?

That's a hard question, thanks to overhaul and uninterested AFO, it means that quirks resides in particular limbs or organs in some cases, and by destroying them - makes people quirkless.

I guess this question has two possibilities.

1st, when people die, their quirks also die with their organism and there is no way to return them back. Though, there are Nomu's, modified corpses with multiple quirks.

2nd, just like the human body, quirks are still there, but with time they will disappear. Meaning that AFO can take them if he is fast enough.

Though, IDK this is possible or not
