This is reminiscent of how One For All used to affect Deku . Similarly tothe animeDarker Than Black , Deku had to make a " transaction " of sorts every time he utilize One For All and therefore curtail its use to one part of his body to palliate the forcible blowback . For good example , he could flick One For All from his left hand ’s cursor finger , but then that finger would be broken . Later on , Deku would undergo blanket training and don specialised equipment that would allow him to summon at least a certain percentage of One For All without get him any bodily hurt . It was n’t long before Deku could manage 100 % of One For All without any of these negative side effect .
