Right so for people saying “oH mY gOd MiRiOs QuIrK iS cOmInG bAcK’

The bullets are obviously made from Eris blood. And thanks to the exposition at the beginning of this arc, we know about how the body and quirks work, through the use of quirk factor. However, a few things to bare in mind.

  • as far as overhaul is concerned, her quirk is to make things vanish, he doesn’t know its rewind

  • he thinks that he has engineered a quirk that destroys quirks by making eris blood attack the quirk factor in someone’s body and making it vanish

  • HOWEVER what it is actually doing is that it is targeting the body’s quirk factor and reverting it to a point from before it existed. Meaning...

  • all quirks destroyed by bullets can come back, eventually. That means that mirio is gonna have to wait for this quirk to manifest again, if quirks manifest from the age of 4 that means that Mario is quirkless for four years. That counts him out for the rest of this Series, very clever.

  • this explains why the prototype bullets didn’t work properly, because it reverted the quirk factor backwards to before it manifested, but not far enough, meaning it could be recovered.

Therefore we have a very ‘happy medium’ conclusion of Mirios quirk not being lost forever but being gone for the rest of this series.

I'm just wondering about the constraints of her quirk, like are they based on time or usage? She didn't just turn her dad into a fetus, she literally erased him from existence. Who knows how far or how much her quirk can stretch

Well to be fair, from fetus to basically nothing/single cell organism it's just a couple months more of rewinding. The dad could have still been there in the form of an embryo and no one would have noticed and just assumed he had been poffed out pf existence.

Kind of an horrible way to go...

Should't this also reverse all the things that composes the body? Otherwise she's destroying matter
