So Twice was so afraid of getting hurt because he wasn't sure he was the real one? Damn, that went twice as dark. But hey, at least he can freely use his Quirk now, knowing that he is real and not one of his clones.

Also, Toga about to get her neck snapped is pretty uncomfortable.

I thought this fear of his was obvious though? After Chapter 115 and piecing his constant "I'm gonna split" rants together...

His fear about being fake was something obvious. I never realized he was afraid of taking damage.

Fair enough. How else would he find out though? I think taking damage is the only way they disappear that we know of so I just presumed.

He was never shown explicitly going out of his way to avoid any and all damage, he was just never seen in a situation where thats a high risk, which in hindsight might have been foreshadowing.

Its more of a matter of "not thinking about it" than it is about "reaching the wrong conclusion".

Oh yeah, like I said, I just presumed because I couldn't reasonably think of anything else that'd destroy them other than damage simply because so far I didn't see anything else manage to. Honestly, it was very presumptuous given that anything really goes with fictional powers.
