The mad doctor in charge of the experiments on Tomura Shigaraki tells his story and says that he was approached by All For One after being banished from the society of heroes according to the Quirk Singularity Theory.

Garaki and All For One began to cooperate and the doctor gave his Quirk “Vital Force”, which doubles its owner’s lifespan, becomes a symbol of fear. Therefore, All For One is not immortal, but has a life that lasts about twice as long as that of an ordinary human. the Symbol of Fear is about 100 years old, while being demonstrated much less accurately due to Garaki’s uniqueness. Now that he’s in possession of Tomura Shigaraki’s corpse, how will he behave in the second cour of My Hero Academia 6?
