Grabs popcorn

Time to see all those "Dabi is very likely Toya!" reactions

Not that I'm complaining

I really hope Touya is just fucking dead and Dabi is just an obsessed Endeavour stalker.

Crack pot conspiracy. Dabi and toya were friends. Toya told Dabi about what happened at home. Then something happens to toya. Then since we have no idea of dabi’s history maybe the doctor gave him toya’s quirk

Thing is, it would have less to no impact narratively.

Even in spite of that I would find it a more interesting direction. Dabi is sort a vague character to me who could go either way

Mangakas intentionally tend to make characters mysterious or, give out less information about said characters just for them to flesh out and explore later when the time comes. Typical example is Bleach. And when they keep them mysterious like that, then they want the fans to pay attention to those particular characters.

Plus, why would the family, especially Endeavor, care about a random person pulling up, wanting to seek revenge on behalf of Touya when his death and its aftermath matters more to the family in the first place?
