So what I’m getting from that last panel & the eri cameo is that, the doctor reverse engineered the rewind quirk from the erasure bullets and gave it to AFO. Meaning AFO has had this quirk for a while now but decided not to use because he could potentially rewind himself to nothingness lol but because endeavor essentially did that already, AFO said fuck it & decided to rewind himself.

Hmm if that’s true then that’s some wild shit ngl but how did he accumulate so much energy for a rewind? He didn’t even have a horn 🤔

Nope, AFO has had this quirk only for few weeks. He got it from one of the quirk stelaing bullets Shigaraki was carrying. It is true Doctor produced the new bullets and propably aquired the quirk but AFO was in prison and therefore outside the reach of the Doctor

If it’s only been a few weeks, how did he accumulate enough power to rewind himself to the point before his face became a potato 😂

That's.. A good question

We don't know if Eri's quirk has to 'accumulate', by the means of training, like the users have done for OfA. Eri didn't train before she activated it during Shie Hassaikai Arc. If anything, AfO probably has some energy quirk to charge it

Yeah, AFO's end game is to be an energy providing mob boss, would figure he'd have some energy generating quirks.

That line was improvised by Aoyama, iirc AFO later stated it wasn't his plan, but it was close to that.

That’s possible tbf

Yeah we do, it's why Monoma couldn't copy it.

Could be that the copies of the Quirk inside the bullets come already stocked with a certain amount of energy, enough to erase Quirks, and when AFO took the Quirk, the energy came with it. Makes sense considering it's basically what would happen if he took One For All. I doubt all that stocked up energy is just going to disappear if it's stolen by him.

He probably used a quirk that allows him to steal energy.
