While I do love talking about the interpersonal side and ethicality of the Todoroki family it is always good to remember that they hold a narrative purpose in the story; while questioning whether or not someone like Endeavor can truly change in real life is valid, it doesn't really add to the discussion of the media. While it is rather sloppy in my opinion, Endeavor's redemption serves a narrative and thematic purpose that contributes to the theme of society damaging people, even people that benefit within the system, and not only perpetuating but encouraging harm. That within this system there is personal responsibility for their harm, but also societal responsibility for creating these violent people in the first place. The narrative is of a story where the only people truly damned are those who created the system; no one is damned and everyone can and should be saved, even someone who's caused untold mayhem like Shigaraki.

#my post #the crimes of the villians and Endeavor are extreme #and while there is NO situation irl where someone who wiped out entire cities could or really should be saved #this is not real life and it's dramatized both for entertainment and to home in the point #MIND YOU THIS IS COMING FROM A BONA-FIDE ENDEAVOR HATER #I hate him all day everyday but sometimes that must be set aside for the sake of good-faith media analysis #you can hate the person but in analysis you must remember that hr is not real and characters only exist to tell a story #there is a narrative point to every action #so set aside hatred every now then and ask: what does this imply?what is the point?what is the author commenting on through this character? #bnha #boku no hero acadamia #mha #my hero acadamia #endeavor #todoroki enji #bnha meta #feel free to add and discuss #if u wanna know how I feel abt enji just look at my previous post abt him. pretty clear that I would kill him no hesitation #bnha spoilers #just to be safe
