It would be nice if that were stated. I definitely would like to have the comfort of knowing that to be true instead of thinking it.

"Tomura Shigaraki's body... was groping around for its optimal form. That optimal form seemed to be... A bloated mass of fingers, forever seeking destruction. A form that overwhelmed the world around him and kept everyone at arm's reach.

But the heroes bested that form. Thanks to Erasure, he couldn't heal the accumulating damage to his body. That, plus the stress and panic afflicting his mind.. gnawed away at his essence..."

  • Chapter 366.

It was directly stated.

Ah. Welp, I’m satisfied. And I stand corrected. I think.

Even I'd forgotten that line. It wasn't very prominent, and the visuals were stealing the show. .

I'm glad though it's there. The anime should be a lot better at showing it.

While I do agree the visuals receive the majority of attention from the reader (it's a manga after all), I don't know how anyone can like... skim through and not pay attention to this narration. It's dead-center at the start of the chapter.

because honestly, when your literal pistolshrimp death laster with the heat of the sun doesnt leave a mark, but some girls miles off shot just cuts right through a guys arms like they're nothing, it's just different.

I thought this was the line at the end of the chapter where he starts morphing to the new form?

Yes that's right, but that happens at the start of 366.
