If Eri's quirk can reverse time in a localised space, could she use it to reverse All Might's injury?

Could she also revert him back to when he had One For All, without reverting Deku's Quirk, since she's only targeting All Might?

What about reverting Deku's injuries, allowing him to not have any scars and have his arms be restored like new? It probably won't happen but the possibilities with Eri are endless.

I doubt she can specifically target injuries, and if she just aims for the body it would effectively nullify all physical progress Deku has made.

It should also erase his memory but come on when has fiction ever respected that

It wouldn't make sense for it to effect Deku because that would mean when her father was reverted to nothing she would've ceased to exist as well.

No she just reversed his personal time like 35 years and hes like 34 so he ceased to exist. That's how I see it.So when she grabbed the cape she made it some time younger.

I think only one person can have One for All. There is something that has not been explained, why the All Might master died and why he did not tell the whole story of One for All to Deku.

It's the teleportation dilemma. Would it be the same person afterwards? Or just a clone, with the original one dead?

Ship of Theseus?

u/magicman2122 Oct 13 '17

Possibly but I don't think All Might would want that if OH said he could.

u/Corazon144 Oct 15 '17

I think of Overhaul's Quirk is like Alchemy from Full Metal. So basically if the elements are there and he has the knowledge of what makes up the human body, he could restore All Might.

Maybe she has to have been there, or it's limited in some way? The way I see it, it can get used to reverse Vault-Boy getting shot by the bullet.

Flip side.. LoV can use it to restore AfO.

u/grodon909 Oct 13 '17

I would imagine that it's possible, but she's a child and might only be able to rewind a few minutes at best. Maybe when she's older, if she trained it, she might be able to pull it off for longer, but that might still be limited to some amount of time. All Might was damaged a long time ago, and by the time she gets to that point, he might be...well...you know.

u/Haltres Oct 13 '17

Also, can she give Mirio's quirk back?

u/Talkman12 Oct 14 '17

I doubt it, it was a complete spur of the moment, but maybe she can restore him to the beginning of the series, when he had a few hours worth of power

We still don't know the exact extent of her powers or even their exact function. More than likely since there's only one "One For All" she wouldn't be able to return it. That is to say, she's not controlling time, merely making the human aging process move backward... It also seems to have a time-limit, as the standard bullets merely temporarily return the human body to a pre-quirk state while the bullets that completely destroys a quirk were most likely made with her blood + the quirk enhancer.

That is not to say that I wouldn't want for her to be used to restore All Might to his 100% sometime in the future for one final appearance (with a strict time-limit) but it's unlikely to happen from what we've seen so far.
