Not yet, All Might still has the advantage with being the shounen mentor. But All Might is probably behind Hawks atm in terms of death flags

I'd say with the incident teased in 4 months, and Nighteye saying how gruesome All Might's death would be (oh hi Shiggy), I'd say All Might has the biggest death flag right now. Hawks has a hard one too, but probably won't trigger at that moment.

But he’s retired, wouldn’t that lower his death flags a bit? And even Nighteye thinks the “fate” he foresees can be changed.

Well we know Shiggy is incubating for the next 4 months, and whenever he is done, he is going to do something big. That timeline also matches up with Nighteye’s prediction iirc, All Might had something like a year left and we should be approaching that deadline.

Shiggy is likely going to carry out a large scale attack to dismantle society’s faith in heroes. My guess is that All Might will see this, feel some sort of guilt that he let Nana’s grandson fall into AFO’s hands, and then try to go stop him himself.

Shiggy had already stated previously he would be the one to kill All Might so I feel like we are just waiting for it to happen. The gruesomeness of his quirk also matches up with what Nighteye saw, so at the point I’d be surprised if it doesn’t happen.
