Bakugo should unlock the 2nd user's quirk

I can't find the og post but I saw someone else basically talking about how Bakugo has been the most consistent catalyst for Deku's quirk evolutions (that we see) and I just wanna say that this is such a great point so lemme elaborate on that :

- When Deku saw that it was Kacchan who was being attacked by the sludge villain , that's when his body moved on its own to save him , and this is what convinced All Might that Deku was worthy of taking up the torch . So from the start , Deku got his quirk in the first place because of how much he cared about Bakugo

- The original poster also brought up a great point that Bakugo was one of Deku's main influences for improving his primary power of OFA - using full cowling to propel and maneuver through the the air

- Then , of course , Deku's most obvious Kacchan related quirk evolution : unlocking blackwhip , his first alternate power of OFA . Deku literally got so enraged at Monoma trash talking Bakugo that it triggered a dormant ability , and the original user was even like ??? dude u gotta calm down or ur gonna loose control too easily 🤚🏼 Also pretty significant that Deku defending Katsuki is the start of him getting OFA in the first place as well as setting off THIS quirk , which is the start of Deku unlocking all the other crucial quirks

- A bit less significant , but during the war Deku unlocks float to carry everyone to safety including Bakugo

- Then during the war , Deku unlocks Danger Sense because of Bakugo . Even though Deku was surrounded by people he cared about who were being hurt , it was specifically Bakugo's peril that set him off . When Bakugo takes a hit from AFO for him , Deku is devastated by it , and then AFO belittles everyone's efforts , but also makes sure to specifically mock Bakugo's sacrifice (almost like he knows what'll provoke Deku) and this makes Deku go into rage mode , unlocking Danger Sense before basically going blackout feral and shouting at AFO to take it back . Out of all the reasons Deku has to be angry with AFO , that comment is what he decides to continuously focus on 🤨

Now I'm not saying that all of these were just because of Katsuki , but I am saying he is the most common factor

As for the other three quirks Deku has , Transference was presumably already unlocked as Deku received the power , while Fa Jin and Smokescreen were unlocked off screen . And now I'm just thinking about how every quirk Deku has unlocked that Horikoshi decided to show the audience , Bakugo was heavily involved somehow 😐

And now , the final quirk that Deku is destined to unlock happens to belong to a mysterious character who is clearly a visual and narrative parallel to Bakugo . After getting a closer look , I don't think the 2nd user is similar enough to actually be Bakugo , but he's too similar for the resemblance to be a coincidence . There's definitely supposed to be a significant connection here . Hmmm.... I wonder what that would be 🤔 I wonder what the payoff for this could possibly be 🤔⁉️👀🏳️‍🌈
