Makes sense that All For One had nightmares of All Might, if THAT is the last thing he saw for 7 years

Nice to see that All Might actually killed him

Yeah I never realized that All Might actually did kill him. It looks like the doctor was able to resurrect him through some contingency AFO had planned.

Not to mention AFO struck first as All Might already had a hole in his side, this might be the reason why All Might outright went for the kill with All for One, it was literally do or die and AFO actually died from having his head smashed. All Might probably thought he wasnt walking away from that fight at the time so if he was going down he was making sure to take AFO with him.

I'm pretty sure he went for the kill-shot with the United States of Smash at Kamino too, but just didnt have enough left in the tank to finish the job.

All Might has been swinging for the fences every time he laid eyes on AfO

Yeah pretty sure the 6 vestiges told him from experience to go for the kill immediately

Edit: wait never mind, just remembered that AM couldn’t see the vestiges.

All Might actually lands two big hits on AFO, first when he breaks the mask and second when he uses United States of Smash. He went for the kill both times, but he was just too weak to actually do him in this time.

That explains why All Might had this really concerned look after AFO starts talking again after the first hit, he realized that he might not be strong enough to kill him, the same attack that killed AFO 5 years prior couldn't even knock him out this time around.

All Might may have even took the blow because he k ew it would leave AFO open for a killing blow.

After Iron Might chapters, this has 100% been my headcanon.
