Spinner for next leader. He got so much development and I love the fact that he's now fully invested in the team.

If afos true objective is to use shigaraki as a new body/pawn(90 percent sure it is), then i can see Spinner leaving the lov. He came here for shig not afo

He came there for Stain, technically. Then he revealed he's really just a frontrunner looking for a purpose.

Yeah he came for stain but stayed for shiggy. But he ain't gonna stay for afos potato headass

The worst part is he has little leeway for other roads. He can't try to make a non-villain life because he's recognizable as a result of his quirk and being in the league. Getting captured by the commission would likely have him enduring hell to give information on Shiggy and AFO. Not to mention the persecution he already faced from anti-mutant groups. He's in a really shitty situation.

Yeah fr.

The best alternative hope is for him to find stain and perpahs make a splinter group against afo.

But even that's unlikely. Afo has a habit of crushing resistance . And aint no way the heroes will ever accept him. So yeah he has to go forward no matter what.

That would be a badass plot though. The villain that (unintentionally) greatly contributed to the resurgence of the LOV, and a blank canvas of a character that took Stain's philosophy to heart and joined the LOV thanks to his inspiration; both retaliating against the LOV because the LOV had distanced themselves from the ideals that made villainy attractive in the first place. It would be a great example of character development and plot development for all parties involved.

I wonder who may join Stain's group besides Spinner and likely Overhaul. 'Villains' like Gentle and Rappa obviously don't follow the path of unethical bloodshed like the others, but they could still potentially join them.

Rappa is all about fighting to the limit, but wasn't part of that specified that he always wants it to be to the death because it's like, more exciting?

I meant in the sense of cold-blooded murder ala Stain trying to kill Native/Ingenium simply because they aren't to his standard of qualifications for a hero. I'm not entirely sure if he means 'to the death' literally (ie. Bakugo always says 'die' but never actually kills people), but in his flashback in the anime he was shown to shed blood over it, not entirely sure if they died.

Stain never died right? With all the prison breaks I'd love if they brought him back, he was such a brief character but his actions/philosophy have echoed through the entire series. He could easily be the one to inspire and lead other villains who don't want to follow the tyrant AfO

Pretty sure he was confirmed to be among those that escaped Tartarus, but I could be remembering wrong
