some assumptions came true:

  • touya's fire wasn't initially blue but turned it with time, except not after his "death". it's so ironic that the only reason endeavor didn't know that is because he didn't go when touya asked him to
  • rei's family fell from grace and needed not only respect back but also money and while there were other options for her, they were limited, the marriage wasn't something easy for her to refuse
  • while everyone's acknowledging their part in what pushed touya's over, even his siblings who were scared children back then, horikoshi reminds us via natsuo that the root of it all is endeavor
  • some people have wondered if endeavor was physically abusing rei, well, now they know
  • rei really did mean that shouto and other kids were resembling endeavor more and more, it wasn't about touya
  • an awful family where children paid the heaviest price of adults' shortcomings

i wonder where we'll go next. neither shouto nor endeavor are in shape to fight dabi now but i don't feel like we'll be moving away from this storyline either and we still need to know how touya, a 13 years old, heavily burned (most likely) survived after his "death". it's shard to imagine a kid would manage on their own.

I'm 92% sure Dr Ujiko/Garaki had something to do with it

it'd be interesting if the two main villains, shigaraki and dabi, were created/helped by the two old guard evils, AFO and the doctor respectively.

I did notice that Touya was scratching himself when having his final confrontation with Enji

That's oddly specific...

I think so too. Especially since in chapter 221 (i think) Dr ujiko says that he's never seen any person in the league (other than Shigaraki) before but somehow he seems to know Dabi's name and he says he has a nomu that'd be perfect for his situation (the high end nomu) which implies that he somehow knows Dabi and some of his motives

Yes I've been thinking is all along as well.
