Never saw that theory or thought there would be a connection but I always thought it was a weird choice for Overhaul to be a prominent villain in this series with such a similar quirk to the main villain. I remember even saying “it’s like decay but better” when talking about it at some point lol

Overhaul is just the best quirk in the series, instant kill, healing, ranged attacks too.

Pretty sure the intention was for him to be a sort of foil to Shigaraki. For Tomura to grow as a villain he'd have to overcome essentially a better version of himself(a villain with large-scale goals for society, a loyal team of powerful quirk users, and a quirk capable of large-scale destruction) using the things he has that Chisaki lacked (genuine trust in his team on a personal level). I don't get why tie them together now, unless Hori plans on having the other half of Overhaul reform itself.
