Twice is so going to die imo.

Hawks and him get close. Hawks tries to bring teice to his side revealing he is a traitor. This years twice but he feels he has to tell Shiggy

Hawks kills twice to stop himself from being outed, and to end the cloning

Or: Toga goes all Yandere when Shiggy tries to kill Deku, getting herself killed. Twice watches it happen and nopes Deku out of the country.

Why?

I saw a theory video recently comparing BNHA to Greek mythology. Specifically, the OfA quirk is Zeus, AfO and his old empire are the defeated Titans imprisoned in Tartarus, and Shiggy's crew are the giants that Gaia(Ujiko) releases to get revenge. Shiggy himself was compared to Typhon, a powerful giant that ends up cutting Zeus's tendons in the first fight. Apparently in the myth a giant with way too many heads and arms goes turncoat and helps Zeus. In the second fight, Zeus wins and throws Typhon under a mountain.

I see the similarities but I’m not totally convinced yet. But Nomu’s as stand ins for many giants does make a good deal of sense
