This theory gains traction as fans dissect the intricate layers of the story, pointing to the repeated references of Deku’s inability to save Tenko Shimura, Shigaraki’s original identity.
Speculation mounts as readers go into the complex dynamics between Shigaraki, Kurogiri, and the vestige of Tenko Shimura.

The revelation of All for One’s return as a vestige within Shigaraki’s consciousness adds further depth to the storyline, highlighting the pervasive influence of manipulation on Shigaraki’s journey.
Please tell me it's going to be Tenko inside of Shirakumo's body or something crazy like that, like Kurogiri managed in the last time to activate his quirk but it didn't work properly and in contact with Shigaraki and AFO it weirdly merged them both https://t.co/Y9bnjXESe7
