AFO, since birth, believes the world belongs to him, and those who don’t contribute to him are considered nuisances. He displays violence by using a quirk to kill people who label him an “orphan of the paranormal.” The revelation of people with powers leads to chaos, with an anti-meta group encountering a small AFO.

All For One desires a world where everything exists for his sake, inspired by the dynamics of heroes and villains in comics. A glowing baby born in China, who became a symbol of hope for superpowered individuals fighting discrimination, was killed by AFO. He defends his actions, questioning the glowing baby’s right to gather a large following, citing what right does he have when he wasn’t even the first to be born, stating that 50 superpowered babies were born before him in India.

All For One’s childhood

His story begins with the story of the prostitute who contracted a “disease” a year prior, resulting in a spike-shaped tumor on her arm. Unaware for eight months, she eventually gives birth to twins at a riverside but succumbs to death. Strangely, the tumor on her arm vanishes. She was unaware of the tumor due to the draining effect caused by the two babies growing inside her. The focus shifts to a panel highlighting a hole in the hand of the baby AFO.

AFO stole all the nutrients from his mother, resulting in Yoichi’s small and weak stature. The stolen quirk from his mother manifests in AFO’s belief that the world is his from birth. His attitude towards those who don’t contribute to him is highlighted, depicting them as nuisances. A panel also disturbingly portrays newborn AFO biting his deceased mother’s breasts with a furious expression, providing a glimpse into the dark origins of his character.

Conclusion

Yoichi, AFO’s brother, believes in his goodness due to childhood memories. Despite AFO’s growing darkness, Yoichi remembers the connection they shared as babies. During a conversation, AFO inquires about Yoichi’s reading material. Yoichi admits he’s not ready for complex books and is learning through comics.

He admires how the drawings convey profound messages and how he aspires to be like Captain Hero. Despite Yoichi’s inability to offer anything substantial, the narration reveals he is considered one of AFO’s “things,” and AFO retains him.
