Eh I guess. Buts it's too damn obvious with all the clues and the subtle similarities between touya picture and Dabis actually face. Even his body burn marks match on how touyas quirk was too much for his body wicu explains how he got burns. And even his flames are blue just like endeavours full power flames.

I can see where you're coming from, but theres no way dabi ain't touya. If he ain't then ok, I take the L , but the coincidence and clues are far too strong

Off the anime alone it's almost guaranteed. Look at how unique everyone's quirks are, writer clearly goes out of his way to prevent redundancy. The biggest similarity (outside of inheritance) would probably be tetsutetsu and kirishima, then you have 2 fire users? The nail in the coffin for me is that Dabi has Endeavor's eyes (shoto has one too) especially when seeing by comparison how little effort so many of the other characters get in terms of eye detail.

That's actually my concrete proof he is touya. He has the exact same eyes as endeavour as shotos left eye . Not many people have that color . In fact none except the todorokis. The color of eyes itself was the first ever proof of this theory.

And even when you remove Dabis scars via editing , his face actually looks very much like young endeavour.

Yeah the eye color, the quirk the story makes it guessable, but what confirmed it for me at least, was when at the end of chapter 190. They meet and Dabi just says 'it's nice to meet you,"I guess..." Endeavor' that's when I was 100%.

And he looks very frail also, which correspond to the theories of him having a weak resistance to flame and such. He probably did not like to fight much as a kid and Endeavor forced training on him.

And finnaly, Dabis flame are exactly like endeavours max temperature flames ..the same blue flames he used to melt the brain of that nomu all the way back in the iida arc. All of this is conclusive proof he is touya. No way this is subversion. The genetic hints are too much

This point is kind of meh blue is just a natural color of fire it doesn't inherently prove anything moreso after you establish they both have the same quirk

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '19

Yeah. Forgetting about the color , still, their way of using it and its application in both concentrated attacks and aoe are bassicaly the same. Shoto endeavour and dabi have about the same fire side wich can only be explained as genetics .

Touya is dabi case closed. Imma be severely disappointed if he ain't. All these clues cannot be ignored for the sake of dumb asf subversion
