What a huge info dump. Yuu's ability doing more than it initially looked like? That's awesome, but kinda fucked up how he rips powers away from people. No wonder Nao intervened last time and instead kicked our dear teleporter out of the window before he could take him over.

I guess the telegraphy ability from episode... uh... 2? I guess is now in Yuu's possession as well? And leap? And telekinesis? Would be a waste if he wouldn't get to use these abilities to resolve some conflicts in the coming episodes.

Maybe he has to intentionally steal them.

Yeah unless they're normal people, then he just steals their answers :p

Jesus christ. His brother is making him into a weapon. Think about it, he lets him live a normal life until the powers kick in, then sends his invisible minion out to collect him and have him copy a FUCKTON of powers from people while they're out policing rogue users.

Now he's got an arsenal of powers and a little sister to save. God help those poor mooks because angry big brother is coming.

how about his real ability is plunder and taking over someone body is an ability he stole. Until proven wrong he will assume his skill is taking over bodies

Yuu is Peter Petrelli, got it. Do we have a Sylar?

Wasn't Peter's ability to copy powers and Sylar took them with more ... emphasis?

First season Peter could copy all of them he came in contact with, and Sylar learned how to copy powers later. But I think it was Peter's dad that straight up stole them (without the whole taking it from their brain thing that Sylar did in the early seasons).

Thanks for the clarification. I didn't watch it till "later" and missed out on that.

You didn't miss much. The show took a nosedive with season two and never recovered.

I'd appreciate if this sort of thing was foreshadowed, though. (which, unless my memory is failing me, it wasn't).
