Theories and such

OFA turned into AFO

Hey. Didn't write here anything for a long time, tho, not like it really matters.

In this "chapter", I will look at some details, and, put my thoughts into them.





As we can see, both boys were syphoning the life energy from their mother. Or, only Zen, himself.
Plus, the difference in size between Yoichi and Zen shows us, who was more developed.

Along with that, Zen took all the milk, or, nutrients from their mother, leaving nothing to Yoichi. Knowing biology, those nutrients should be capable of strengthening one's body (in short, her milk should have replenished all things, that boys lacked).

With all of this info, it's not that surprising, why Yoichi was born so weak and fragile - he was undeveloped. And his quirk (Transference/Bestowal/however you may want to call it) - should be the same case, as quirks are often portrayed as "muscles", that you can tear apart, heal and exhaust. If you are undeveloped, your quirk is, too.



Early on, Transference could only pass itself down. Weak and undeveloped - it was the only thing that it could do, just transfer itself through DNA consumption.

But, thanks to Stockpile - Transference started to get stronger. To "mutate". You could even say "develop, like it should have, from the start". Thanks to the fusion of those two, Transference started to "absorb" quirks. Possibly copying them (seeing, how Nana was still fighting against AFO, even if she passed OFA to Toshinori. It could, either, mean that OFA's embers act the same way, as it does for quirkless people - leave embers of your quirk with you, along with OFA embers. Before you lose them, both. Or, it just copied/stockpiled Float)? Into its core.

And, as seen with the manga, Izuku could easily pass down quirks within OFA, instead of OFA, itself.

By combining those facts, together:
1. We have a quirk, that can pass itself down;
2. That can pass other quirks;
3. That can store quirks within itself;
4. That can make combinations of quirks;
5. That has vestiges of those quirks.

If we forget about this whole topic - it sounds like All For One, but, without  "Can steal quirks" and "By touch" parts.

Combining all those facts from this "chapter", we can make a conclusion, that Yoichi's quirk should have been similar to AFO.

But...

Does it matter in the current generation (9th)?

Izuku's OFA can't grow further, as it was mentioned by him to Toshinori "Do you feel how OFA grows?
No, I don't feel anything of the sort". (Don't remember the exact phrase)

And it was explained, that this is due to Singularity. OFA just hit its limit, and Stockpile can't collect more energy.

Does it mean, that the theory of Transference evolving/developing into AFO is a bust, seeing that OFA can't grow, nowadays?
Maybe, maybe not. Some people thought, that Izuku's OFA can't grow due to his inability to control it at 100% (a fail-safe, you could say?)

As we know, quirks "within" OFA - get stronger and mutate with:
1. Stockpiled energy.
2. Time.

While the first one is freezed up, we still have "Time" part.

Meaning, that it's not certain, that the level of Gearshift - is the maximum. And that other quirks (Fa Jin, Danger sense, blackwhips, smoke screen and float) - hit their limit in OFA evolution/mutation.

At the very least, level of Gearshift is the "maximum" level, that quirks in OFA can achieve, apparently.

But, here's the thing



Sorry, I meant, that IF Gearshift can still evolve - shouldn't it mean, that Transference, like all the quirks within OFA - can still evolve further?
If so, what exactly would it develop? It already can do pretty much everything, that we could think of. The only path of a new mutation, that I can think of - is either by removing the need of "DNA consumption" to transfer quirks (or, making it unnecessary, overall).
Or, by obtaining the power to steal quirks. If not both-

Though, we also have the "Singularity point". Whatever it means
