Yes! He will be getting a little character arc the involves ✨ positive character development ✨. After all, one of the things I want to cover in my rewrite is the notion that everyone has the ability to change and improve for the better*.

Thank you for the compliment, but please tamper your expectations of my rewrite. Especially since I actually have not started writing the actually rewrite yet. Also, keep in mind I do not consider myself a better writer than Horikoshi :]

Yeah, I'm planning on giving hints to Oboro's existance during Act 1, but he won't be properly acknowledge until Act 2, around Kurogiri's arrest (meta foreshadowing and all that)

As for Kurogiri's characterization: Kurogiri is different from who he was prior. Oboro was witty and goofy, while Kurogiri has a dry sense of humor and level-headed. Oboro was high energy, while Kurogiri has been programed to be calm. Oboro has no sense of shame, while Kurogiri wears shame like it was a scarf.

However, he is still similar to who he was. Kurogiri is still selfless, caring and whenever he sees someone in trouble, he cannot help himself to try & help them.

No amount of brainwashing could erase his heroic, altruist background.

Thank you for the ask!

HIMIKO TOGA (I)

Three fun facts about rewrite!Himiko

While her quirk is legally registered as "Transform", after the Saito Incident and running away, she began to calling it "Metamorphosis"

Himiko was put into gymnastics after the first few times she was hit by her parents. Both as a way to explain away any future bruises and as a way to further show her how "normal people" are supposed to act.

Ah, Chizome "Stain" Akaguro the ex-vigilante serial killer who is obsessed with All Might.

Within my rewrite: Chizome started out as this anti-hero* vigilante known as Stendhal. He was smart, quick on his feet, and, of course, knows knows how to handle the blade. He started out as someone who just wanted to pick up the slack of Heroes and with a noble goal.

However, very quickly his mindset changed and how low he's willing to go went deeper. He soon started killing those he previously just tied up and left for the Heroes and police to deal. He was willing to work with villains such as the likes as Kuin Hachisuka. He began to justify his actions as "Heroic" and denied any & all criticism that went his way.

After his fight with Knuckduster, he shed the Stendhal title and adopted the moniker Hero Killer: Stain. He also cut off his own nose.

And he began comparing all Heroes to All Might. In his mind: if a Hero couldn't live to the heroism of All Might, to his version of All Might, then they're good as dead. So, he started killing Heroes. He killed Heroes who were actually corrupt, those he randomly ran across on the street, and most importantly those who tried to stop him/get in his way.

His criticism of Hero society is grounded in reality but the way he goes about it leaves his message muddied and not as efficient as it could be, and innocent people are often hurt by his actions.

Also, Chizome is one of All For One's targets. Wanted by the Demon Lord for his quirk. (Not that he ever told Tomura Shigaraki this. Though, he did chew her out for letting him slip from her fingers as soon as Chizome's arrest became public). All For One wouldn't go after him himself, instead he would send pawns after Stain. Which the pawns just ended up dead. Also, Chizome became a target after he became Stain.

So, my version of Chizome is similar to his canon counterpart, there isn't any major differences other than him being wanted by AFO for a couple of years. But I do hope you liked what I got about my version of rewrite!Chizome Akaguro so far.

Thank you for the ask!

SHUICHI IGUCHI (I)

Three fun fact about rewrite!Spinner!

One of three LOV members who successfully graduated from High School.

Before the LOV, he rarely if every played singleplayer/solo-player games. Tomura introduces him to so many games he missed out on because it didn't have co-op.

SOCIAL MEDIA (I)

TENYA IIDA (I)

Three fun facts about rewrite!Tenya

Is scared of small dogs, this is something Tensei teases him about a lot.

Got to meet Oboro once before his death because Tensei is friends with the rooftop squad (Oboro, Shouta, Hizashi, and Nemuri). Due to this, Tenya also knew Shouta, Hizashi, and Nemuri before starting UA. He also met Koichi a few times. It's a wonder how Tenya ended up as rule* abiding as he did.

KUROGIRI (I)

Three fun facts about Kurogiri

While he was created to just be the "Protector of Tomura Shigaraki", he essentially turned into All For One's housekeeper before moving into the Dark Cloud Lounge.

While he can't remember his life as Oboro/before becoming Tomura's protector, there are moments of déjà vu. He still has muscle memories from prior too.
