What? Is it the unbelievability of the situation? Did I somehow misinterpret the situation? Or is it just a gateway to a dirty joke or crackpot theory? No, it's just that it sounds dumb. While Izuku not being able to use One For All 100% without issue like All Might is understandable, the idea of not just losing control over it, but releasing black tendrils that attack everyone just sounds dumb.

Like, why would that even happen? What, does he have the Kyuubi inside of him or some shit? Maybe context and pictures can explain it better...

Okay, Ill try to be as simple as possible, but again, SPOILERS.

So, remember those Shadows Midoriya saw when fighting Shinso at the Sports Festival? Well, they decided to pay him a visit while he was sleeping. The first wielder, the original One for All, showed him some memories leading up to All for One giving him the quirk that would merge with his own to become One for All, before it abruptly stopped.

The first wielder then starts talking to Midoriya, saying this is all he could access so far, and that Midoriya isn't alone. Aoyama, who's Midoriya's neighbor and entering his friend circle, wakes up and goes to Midoriya's room after hearing a loud bang, and finds Midoriya panting as his room is wrecked. Aoyama mistakes it for his quirk just going off while he was dreaming, though Midoriya can only focus on seeing all the wielders reach out to him before the vision ended.

Midoriya however goes to All Might and tries to figure out just what is going on. All Might says he only ever saw the memories, which is how he told Midoriya about the origin of the powers. He remembers that his sensei and previous wielder, Nana, once told him that One for All actually bears the wills of the previous holders, and that even after they die, they'll be reunited in One for All. Before they can discuss it further, Aizawa and Vlad declare that 1-A and 1-B will have joint combat training, each class having four teams of four, and one team of five. The fifth member for both teams is Shinsou, who has been training with Aizawa and is participating for the chance to join the hero course, with him being on 1-A's team in Round 1, and 1-B's team in Round 5. Long story short, once Round 5 comes around, Midoriya thinks Shinsou could be the key to seeing the vestiges again, since he is why it happened last time. Before he can face Shinsou, Monoma confronts him and goads him into fighting.

At the same time, All Might is called by Gran Torino, and he tells All Might Nana did tell him about the vision once, that she had it when she first got One for All. In it, she saw a man shrouded in darkness say "It's not that time. Not yet."

Midoriya is just about to use his gloves he got from Mei to perform a safe version of his finger flicks, until...

The black mass of tendrils suddenly because impaling everything around it. Both 1-B and 1-A. Shinsou comes across Midoriya but Midoriya yells at him to run. All Might yells for Aizawa and Vlad to stop the match, and Midoriya suddenly is sent airborn. As he's airborn, Uraraka restrains him, and calls out to Shinsou to brainwash Midoriya. Shinsou manages to call out to Deku and get him brainwashed by responding, with the black mass suddenly evaporating in the process. As it's sucked in, Midoriya is sent back to the dreamscape, where he meets...... this guy. One of the past wielders, and apparently he's responsible for One for All going nuts. So even though Midoriya has been training, he doesn't have full control over One for All. Why? Because the other wielders appear to be capable of overriding his control and using it from within him. Forget Kurama, Midoriya has seven separate wielders in him, and when All Might dies, his mentor will be joining him. And they can override him whenever they want.
