Unholy

Pairing: Enji Todoroki (Endeavor) x PopStar!Reader

Word Count: 2600+

Summary: Inspired by Unholy By Sam Smith and Kim Petras. As promotion for their newest album, Y/n revealed a mysterious hint at one of the songs true meanings. Enji Todoroki starts to quietly panic at this vague reveal by the young singer. Hawks is all too ready to fan the flames of Pro Hero Endeavor’s insecurities.

Warnings: Playful hitting, alcohol consumption, marriage affair, the use of Mx. (feel free to input whatever preferred)

A/N: Reader is gender neutral! Let me know if you like this story or not. Definitely a new direction in my writing style. Some bold decisions were made on my part. Still suoer not familiar with Endeavor as a love interest so sorry for anything that's OOC.

“Pop Sensation Y/n L/n confirms their new song Unholy is about a Pro Hero who acted as a Sugar Daddy for them, but won’t say who. Could it be one of their classmates from UA? We’ll talk about our predictions after this commercial break,” the tabloid anchor spilled before jumping to a commercial for toothpaste.

They laughed, popping a grape into their mouth. Y/n’s phone was blowing up with their friends’ names as well as the man in question's. The ‘news’ plastered on every tabloid in Japan was the same story and Y/n could almost cackle at how easy it was to rile the feathers of so many people so easily. As if on queue, a red feather whipped around their shared kitchen, tickling Y/n’s nose before finding hawks’ wing again.

“If I knew being your roommate meant being bombarded by paparazzi asking who you’re fucking, I wouldn’t have signed that lease,” Keigo complained, taking a grape from the bag in front of Y/n and leaning with his back to the counter. “I thought I was the one who was supposed to have the interesting sex life.”

“Maybe if…” Y/n started, leaning forward and blocking their bag of grapes from him, “if you left the apartment for something other than hero work, you would.”

Y/n’s phone lit up and started to buzz on the marble countertop. Keigo looks at it and smirks.

“So, when are you going to tell him?” Keigo chuckles, seeing Shoto Todoroki’s contact photo on Y/n’s phone.

“Tell him what?” Y/n asks, silencing the phone and sliding it into their pocket.

“You’re joking, right? That you’re fucking his dad.” Keigo’s voice became more serious the more he spoke, “kid’s like your best friend. I know I’d be pissed if my crush from high school was fucking my dad.”

“Aww, you’d have a crush on me if we went to school together? That’s so sweet. But I thought you were gay?” Y/n chuckles, picking up their bowl of grapes and walking towards the couch.

“Oh, don’t give me that. I’m a bi icon and you know it,” Keigo follows close behind.

“I’m not going to tell him, just like I’m not going to tell the tabloids! I’ll do what I always planned; send a group text to my friends that I made it up for publicity!” Y/n shrugged, sitting down and turning up the tv.

“Why do you even watch these shows? They’re all lies,” Keigo rolls his eyes as he tries to reach around Y/n to steal the remote.

Y/n snatches the remote and sends him a fake glare, “this is how I keep up with my friends from school. I use it as an opener when texting them. ‘Hey, Izuku! Is it true Ochaco is pregnant?’ It works every time.”

“Why can’t you just text ‘hey’?” Keigo questions.

Y/n gives him a look of disgust before speaking, “you want me to start a conversation with just hey? Like some kind of psychopath?”

Y/n’s phone had fallen between the cushions and started to buzz again. Keigo grumbles, digging into the couch and pulling out the phone. He answers it without looking at the screen and before Y/n can snatch it.

“Y/n can’t come to the phone right now, Todoroki. Can I take a message?” Keigo asked irritated.

Keigo’s feathers puff out and his eyes go wide at the deep voice that responds, “please give the phone to Mx. Y/l/n. I have something I must discuss with them.”

Keigo quickly recovers with a smirk, looking Y/n in the eyes as he spoke, “not the Todoroki I thought was calling. What can I do for you on this fine day, Endeavor?”

Y/n began to panic, not knowing how to avoid Enji now. Keigo leaned back on the couch, listening intently to the man on the phone, and getting comfortable. An occasional yeah or mmhm would come from him, but that was all he was telegraphing.

“Yeah, I hear you, Man. Volume isn’t the issue here. The problem is that they aren’t here to even take a phone call. They left their phone in the apartment by accident in their rush out the door. You know how Y/n can be. Always the forgetful one,” Keigo smoothly says, saving Y/n's proverbial ass from having to talk to him before changing the topic. “I noticed you called them a few times. Is there a reason you’re calling one of your son's best friends?”

Y/n’s hand found their mouth as a fearful squeak comes from them. Keigo knew exactly what he was doing. Keigo laughs as he pulls the phone away from his ear and holds the phone out to Y/n. The phone still said call ended for a split second before going black.

“He hung up on me, the dick. He totally knows I know now,” Keigo still chuckled as he turned back towards the tv.

Y/n hit Keigo in the back of the head with their phone.

“What the fuck was that? Don’t pick up my phone if you’re not even going to look at the caller id!” Y/n scolded.

Keigo swore he could see steam shoot from Y/n’s ears. He held out his hand. Y/n slapped the remote into his hand, glaring as they readjusted and faced the tv again.

“Hey, some guy named Enji Todoroki called you. Said something about it being urgent?” Keigo said casually, flipping through channels.

Y/n slapped his arm causing him to laugh and push their shoulder.

“No, but seriously…” Keigo starts. “Does he always do that old person thing where he’s always slightly yelling into the phone? Because he does that to me too, and I gotta know.”

Y/n rolls their eyes, pouting as Keigo starts a movie.

---

“So, Y/n, your secret is safe with me,” the talk show hoost starts, “Who’s the song about?”

Y/n chuckles lightly and they spoke casually, “my secret is safe on live television? You think me a fool.”

“D’awe. You can’t blame a host for trying!” He speaks directly to the camera.

The crowd laughs.

“After this, we bring Pro Hero Hawks out to the couch!” The host says to the camera and applause from the audience.

With applause, the show returns from commercial, and Keigo is bounding from backstage to center, waving at the audience and sending a few tactical winks at a few women. He finally finds his seat next to Y/n after shaking the host’s hand.

“Pro Hero Hawks! How have you been since last we saw you?” The host starts, tapping his notecards on his knee.

“I’ve been good but busy! Climbing the hero charts was easy, staying up there is difficult with all the new hero blood out there,” Keigo laughs, sipping the whiskey from the glass that had been placed for him during the commercial.

“You’re right! Last year's newest heroes from UA High came to the scene with numbers under their belts already! You and Y/n share an apartment, correct? Any of their old UA friends loiter in your apartment?” The host prys.

Keigo and Y/n both know what the host is trying to infer.

Keigo laughs again, “I wish Y/n would bring friends over. I’m beginning to think they don’t actually have any friends. If you’re trying to get me to spill on their secrets, I can give you this: it never happened in the apartment…”

Murmurs wash over the crowd.

Keigo continues with a smirk, “And I do know who it is.”

Y/n is quick to respond with a smile, “I swear, you can’t tell a Pro Hero anything. They can’t keep a secret to save their lives. I told Deku who my first kiss was and he immediately told Uravity who told Pinky who told the rest of our grade by lunch!”

“Oooh, who was this first kiss of yours with?” The host leans forward in curiosity.

“Oh, he’s going to kill me for saying this,” Y/n exhaled before taking a long sip from their glass. Y/n smiled proudly and spoke with confidence, “Pro Hero DynaMight.”

The crowd whoops and hollers at Y/n’s loud whisper. The host is fanning himself with his note cards.

“Now, that’s some juicy gossip! Where you his first kiss too?” The host questions.

“If 17-year-old Katsuki Bakugo is to be believed, then yes,” Y/n chuckles.

“Okay, even I didn’t know this!” Keigo feigns hurt.

---

“I don’t care what kind of relationship you have with them, Endeavor,” Keigo drawls, flying next to Endeavor above the city. “What I care about is how that little fireball weaseled its way into your wallet. I’m trying to learn how they do it so I can scam some old guy too.”

Enji groaned, “don’t you have somewhere better to be, Hawks?”

“Nope! The commission wants to see us interacting friendly with each other out in public. So here I am!” Keigo smirked.

“I would hardly call this friendly,” Enji responds, landing on a nearby rooftop.

Keigo followed suit and continued, “oh, come on. I’m just playing. Stop stressing over it or you’ll do something stupid like tell the press yourself! No one suspects you. The main prediction right now is actually your youngest. So, how much did you give her in that NDA?”

Enji ignored him, taking off back into the sky.

---

“6.7 million??” Keigo gawked at his roommate through the mirror in the bathroom they were sharing.

Y/n looked up from their sink station, “yeah, he also made it clear he wasn’t cutting off our ‘normal meetings.’ The man really talks like an old-timey Sheriff.”

“So,” Keigo starts, taking a flat iron to his hair, styling it just so, “where are you taking me to keep me quiet?”

“Without an apartment, if you tell anyone. Remember, you’re living here for free,” Y/n reminds him, adjusting their own hair for their night out.

“I am unloved,” Keigo sighs loudly, the back of his free hand finding his forehead.

“Don’t be a drama queen. I’ll take you out for dinner next week,” Y/n suggests.

“Careful, they’ll think I’m the one you’re sleeping with,” Keigo counters, laughing while pulling on his jacket and heading toward the front door.

Y/n pretends to throw up at the thought of his comment. They grabbed their own jacket, putting what they’d need into their jean pockets. Y/n’s phone buzzes on the coffee table as the two left the bathroom. The two look at each other before both lunging for the phone. Keigo grabs it and flies off the ground in the high vaulted apartment and out of Y/n’s reach. He unlocks Y/n’s phone and looks at the text.

Keigo laughs while reading it out loud, “‘Are you awake?’ Is this guy for real? Man is married with children and still texting like this? Real catch, this one.”

A phone call from the flame hero came in. Keigo tosses Y/n’s phone down to them. Y/n narrowly catches it and answer’s the call.

“Hello, Mr. Todoroki. How are you doing?” Y/n starts into the phone.

“Oh. Is there someone there? I can call back when they leave. When is that?” Enji’s voice is as stiff as ever as he questions Y/n.

“I’ll actually be busy all night so I can’t talk business. You’re welcome to send an email to my agent. I’m sure she’ll respond at her soonest convenience,” Y/n shifted into a sickenly sweet young professional voice.

Keigo watched as Y/n tried to blow off whatever plans Endeavor was trying to set up. Enji paused for a long time, causing Y/n to believe they lost signal. Keigo laughs, shaking his head and grabbing his keys as he lands.

“Hello? Mr. Todoro-” Y/n was cut off by the man on the phone.

“Who are you with?” Enji interrupts, slight irritation in his voice.

Y/n’s disposition falters and Keigo looks at them confused as to what’s wrong.

“Um, I don’t see how who I am with is of concern to you, Mr. Todoroki.” Y/n speaks carefully, sliding on their shoes by the door.

“Are you going out with my son tonight?” Enji attempts to ask casually.

“Yes, I’m going out with him and a bunch of our friends for my birthday. Did you forget that was today?” Y/n quizzed, raising an eyebrow at Keigo.

The duo leaves the apartment. Keigo struggled to contain his laughter as he locked the apartment door behind them.

“Are any of them with you know? Do they know who you’re speaking to?” He continues to grill.

“No, just Hawks. Why? Do you want to take to him,” Y/n looks over and makes eye contact with Keigo who shakes his head furiously from side to side.

“No, that won’t be necessary. Call me when you are home.” Enji demands.

“I probably won’t be home until the early hours of the nigh-” Y/n was cut off again.

“You heard me,” Enji hung up the phone before they could respond.

Y/n scoffed, shoving their phone in their pocket. Keigo laughed at his close friend.

“He’s down bad. It’s kind of gross,” Keigo quips.

---

The two arrived at the nightclub together. Keigo threw his keys toward the valet boy who caught them easily. They enter the loud club, making their way to the back VIP tables. Paparazzi had been clipping photos since they stepped out of Keigo’s sports car. News of the Y/n’s birthday party spread like wildfire and the club was soon twice as packed with fans hoping to brush shoulders with any of the start-studded guests.

“So!” Miruko yelled over the crowd, gaining the attention of Mina, Y/n, and Denki, “who are you sleeping with?”

“I already told you! I lied about that!” Y/n yelled back.

“Well, we don’t believe you!” Denki laughs, handing each of them another shot.

Y/n laughs, before downing the shot with their friends.

It's nearly 2am when a commotion could be heard across the club and the whole VIP section looks over to see an especially irritated looking Enveavor being swarmed by fans.

“Hey, Shoto! Why’s your dad here? You out past curfew?” Katsuki yells over to Shoto.

“No idea,” Shoto responds at a normal volume, eyebrows stitched together.

Y/n looks from Shoto to his father to find the latter already looking at them. Y/n quickly looks away and pretends like they hadn’t seen him and takes another round of shots, this time with Katsuki and Hawks. Katsuki was standing behind Y/n as the three talked around one of the standing tables, his chin resting on their left shoulder, and his hand resting on their right hip.

---

Endeavor watched Y/n stand and leave to another table and how one of his son's school friends was practically hanging off them. He started to make his way across the club, wading through the thick crowd of people before being stopped in the center of the dance floor by his son.

“Why are you here, Endeavor?” Shoto asks calmly.

Endeavor froze. He hadn’t thought that far. He sudden;y found himself lost in a crowd of people thinking about why exactly he was there. He surely couldn’t say he was here for Y/n. Or that them being surrounded by tons of strangers who could potentially whisk them away scared him. And least of all say any of that to his son.

“There is a mission we have to attend to immediately and you weren’t answering your phone,” Endeavor lied through his teeth.

“I’m too inebriated to work. I will attend to whatever you need of me in the morning.” Shoto bargains.

Endeavor gave a short nod, turning back towards the entrance. For a moment, he pauses at the door, looking over his shoulder to find Y/n’s eyes on him once again. He left without speaking a word to them, but showing up like that was a message enough.

Insatiable Heat: Hide and Burn

Pro Hero Endeavor is back in hero mode for Chapter 24 of Insatiable Heat.

Insatiable Heat - Chapter 24 - SaiyanMyName - 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia [Archive of Our Own]

Below for the excerpt:

Endeavor continued, pushing the raging fires back towards Hinote with the force of his own quirk. He tried to apply more pressure than temperature, but it didn’t stop the fires from feeding into Hinote’s own flames, splashes of orange and red peaks creeping around the room, illuminating the darkest corners as they seeped through the lumber, eating away at the structure of the building itself. The deep red flames turned white as they devoured through crates and pillars, even the wooden beams within the walls, leaving skeletons of concrete and ghosts of smoke.

Endeavor looked over his shoulder, eyes wide and flashing a vibrant blue, he grimaced, in horror at the sheer strength of Hinote’s quirk. You were standing precariously amidst the fire, bravely trying to make your way back towards Enji, through burning stacks of pallets and crates, fires either side of you, fast closing in.

Bro I wish Enji Todoroki would just die. Like ik some villians get a reformation arc and it works for them depending on what they did yk. But this mf ooo I could rant about how much I hate this guy for HOURS. "yeah I abused my wife, put her in a psychiatric ward (even though I belong there and jail), traumatized her enough to severely injure my youngest child. Abuse all my children as well, make one almost kill himself, made the 2nd oldest become like an actual parent in my stead, rejected my 3rd born because "she was weak like her mother", And forced my youngest son to ostracize himself from the rest of his family and 'train' until he collapsed or vomited and still being disappointed in him" - basically a quote from endeavor same thing ...Y'all I was almost done writing this when I searched it up and some random site said they killed endeavor in the manga, but then I had to search it up again and I'm like 99% sure he's not dead (unfortunately) I really need to get caught up with the manga yeah um so that's my take on endeavor's second chance

Must have been the wind

Based off of Alec Benjamin's song Must have been the wind.

This is an Endeavor x reader. Reader is a pro hero with the quirk manipulate. Manipulate is basic and simple the user can manipulate the target whether it being movements or thoughts. Pro hero name is Marinette.

Trigger warning ⚠️: talks of abuse, drinking, accusation of cheating.

Endeavors POV

It was another restless night. The neighbors were being pretty loud across the street. I heard glass shatter which made me get out of bed. At first I thought it was my imagination, but then I heard her voice and she was crying and screaming. I'm now to worried to forget about it so I put my shoes on and started walking across the street. I knocked on the door and asked about the things I for sure new I was hearing.

She said: "I think your ears are playing tricks on you."

Her sweater up to her chin.

She said: "It's really nice of you to come by and check, but I really i have to go back in. Wish I could tell you about the noise, but I didn't hear a thing."

She said: "It must've been the wind."

Must've been the wind?

She said: "It must've been the wind."

One Week Later.

I was lying down on my cold bed. No, I, just couldn't shake the feeling. I couldn't interude because I knew I didn't have all the facts. But I couldn't bear the thought of leaving her. So i got up and went downstairs and put my shoes on, walking across the street. I knocked on her door she opened up and I asked about the things I've been hearing.

She said: "I think your ears are playing tricks on you."

Her sweater was pulled up to her chin.

She said: "Thanks for caring that's nice of you, but I have to go back in. Wish I could tell you about the noise. But I didn't hear a thing."

I nodded my head and looked back at her.

She said: "It must've been the wind."

Must've been the wind?

She said: "It must've been the wind."

I'm on the roof of the agency my phone playing "Lean on me" just so she knows she can lean on me. I hope she hears the words and knows she'll be okay. My phone playing "Lean on me" just so she knows she can lean on me. When she hears the words i know exactly what

I'll say: "Promise I'm not playing tricks on you. You're always welcome to come in. You can stay for an hour or two if you ever need a friend."

Friend...I don't want to be just her friend.

I'll say: "We can talk about the noise, when you're ready, but till then we'll say it must've been the wind."

Must've been the wind.

I'll say: "It must've been the wind."

One week later.

I heard a knock upon the door so I went towards it to see Y/N. She had tears on her face and a bruise down her arm. I motioned her to come inside. She sat down on the couch and looked down at her hands.

Y/N POV

I was sitting on Endeavors couch crying and looking at my hands. I finally had enough of the fighting. At first our marriage was good. We have a 2 year old together. But after one drunken night everything changed. He started yelling at me accusing me of cheating. I was always faithful I never fell through with people's flirting ir advances. I got so bad he through a glass bottle of beer at me. I thankfully dodged. He'd hit me on the bad nights. I've had enough and I don't need our- my daughter to grow up with that. "He's abusing me. The night you came over when you heard something was him throwing a bottle at me. Thankfully I dodged but he's just so much worse than before our marriage."

Endeavor looked at me and slowly grabbed my hand. "I'm just glad you said something because I was starting to worry about you. Actually I was worried since that night." We started talking next steps and he said to move in with my cousin till I can find something more ideal.

"You want me to move in with Hawks? He's a child with bird wings." He tilted his eyebrow and looked at me "Fine. I'll move in with him. Willow loves her Uncle. She'll be thrilled to see him everyday. I swear she loves him more than me."

Manga With Me: MHA Pocket Theory Edition

Todoroki Family Dynamics

⚠️ Spoiler Warning: focused on chapters 175-200 and may reference previous chapters.

Shoto’s sympathetic flame 🥺

I'm in the middle of drafting my ✨unsolicited analysis✨ of MHA when I realized the Todoroki’s deserve their own exploration (and a specialized team of therapists). From Fuyumi guilting Natsuo about never calling home to their trauma den which just screams “Let’s completely gloss over our shared neglect and abuse and be happy now” to Natsuo’s loud and justifiable resentment of Endeavor. Fuyumi tries desperately to hold onto the jagged pieces of her family (likely to her own detriment and surely to the discomfort of all those involved) and their unique responses to their upbringing inspires me to believe that, ultimately, Shoto's older siblings remember things in a way that he can’t.

Note: This analysis is largely focused around the fight Endeavor has with the Nomu following his official ranking as the #1 Hero and their subsequent reactions. Back to the point!

Shoto, being the chosen one, likely only remembers his own targeted abuse as Endeavor made it a point to separate him from the "failed experiments" to focus his training. Due to his lack of socialization and subsequent alienation, it would be difficult to perceive the negativity in his siblings' upbringing since, from his side of the fence, things are look bleak by comparison based on the glimpses he sees of his siblings in passing. Similarly, Rei, his only respite from his father's violence, ultimately lashed out with a cruel assault against Shoto. From a child's standpoint, it would be impossible to perceive his siblings' neglect and challenging to be empathetic where they they can more comprehensively understand the abuse he was subjected to in tandem with their neglect.

For starters, if Endeavor wasn't using their obvious physical traits as indicators for the powers they'd ultimately yield, each of the Todoroki children likely suffered the intensity of his scrutiny before being discarded for their supposed inferiority. Given Endeavor's quirk, I can't help but liken this attention to the warmth of the sun (when you have nothing to compare his "love" to) wherein the absence would sting just as much when their quirks eventually manifested. But as the Todoroki family grew and more children were cast aside, they'd find warmth and build community around one another. This is something Shoto is not able to partake in for some time if at all.

As they've grown, each of them cope differently: Shoto by way of avoidance and rebellion, Natsuo by aggressive confrontation and desertion, Fuyumi by placation and delusion. Then you have Rei in this section, who mentions the fact that, even though she only mentioned her favorite flower to Endeavor once, he still remembers and sends them to her in the hospital. As if to say that is in some way redemption for his treatment of her otherwise. Is it to suggest that their relationship wasn’t as black and white as we’re made to believe? I’m curious to know what the flower is and its inherent meaning.

Frequently when reading, I find the need to remind myself that the information presented comes to the reader by way of Deku's understanding and interpretation. As such, what we know of the Todoroki family is likely filtered through Shoto's recollection and subsequent perception which includes Endeavor's stratagem to forge strong progeny by way of a forced quirk marriage. This is not to suggest that Endeavor is in some way excused in his villainy. He was clearly abusive, obsessive and neglectful. But it challenges what we know of he and Rei's relationship (and potentially its origin) when she chooses to look back fondly on those flowers. Shoto's influence in the interpretation of the family dynamic is also evident in that Rei, a victim to Endeavor's abuse, is never also seen as abusive despite Shoto carrying the physical evidence of her abuse for the rest of his life. He is sympathetic to his mother so she is perceived sympathetically.

Now, fast forward to the bloody Endeavor vs Nomu fight broadcasted in real time. As Endeavor’s fight worsens, Fuyumi and Shoto (and weirdly, All Might) are shown to have visceral reactions to the fight which subtly suggests that Shoto’s feelings of his father are a bit more complicated than his regular denouncement may lead us to believe. In the face of Natsuo’s criticism of fighting a losing battle, Fuyumi concedes that giving up is what Endeavor is worst at. Given the context, this indicates Fuyumi's admiration of Endeavor's minimally redeeming qualities.

Shoto’s reaction is the title gif but peep All Might's (now a relic of hero culture) reaction below 👇🏾

Critically, by the conclusion of the fight, Shoto seems to see his father in earnest and is relieved by his success despite his resentment. This is an indication of the growth he's experienced while at UA in terms of his emotional depth and range which is sometimes overlooked because of his lack of socialization and general awkwardness. It also belies a complexity to the relationship Shoto has with his father that is likely steeped in as much bitterness as it is in admiration. Is it the redemption that Endeavor deserves? No, this remains an Endeavor slander account. But it's further exposition into Shoto's character evolution.

While I don't assume writers know every minute detail of their story when they get started, there are some things that I have to assume are not for no reason. Like, why include this family dynamic and flesh it out to this degree?

On the one hand, I think the dichotomy of Endeavor's character as it relates to him being a Pro Hero is an exploration into the overarching theme of MHA which ultimately questions what is good and evil when we all have a duality within us that can be influenced by external circumstances or stimuli. Never meet your heroes because no one is inherently good. Every one holds a potential for darkness especially without the limitations of public scrutiny.

On the other hand, I wonder if this family dynamic is meant to be a microcosm for the larger power/social struggle in universe that has been building momentum and pulling at the fibers of what's keeping "the peace" because as with the Todoroki family and hero culture at large, there's sure to be a reckoning.

Endeavor would obviously be a metaphor for reigning hero culture which can be largely problematic despite its supposed virtuousness. It covets strength as a suppressant though, ultimately, its dissonant zeal for violence galvanizes opposing factions.

Rei, generationally, would be the pacified general public who remembers the chaos that came before civilization righted itself into the balance it maintains now. Whether quirkless or simply possessing a quirk but not choosing to or able to sway one way or another, the general public accepts the current nature of things and their precarious day to day life despite having previously been a victim to burgeoning quirk culture. This is especially relevant as Rei appears to be a victim of a forced quirk marriage which was prevalent while the frenzy around quirks was new. Essentially, Rei represents those within hero society who are not strong enough in character or quirk strength to oppose whatever the order de jour may be. Note: the comparison preceding this sentence is not an assessment or reflection of Rei as a victim of domestic, verbal or spousal abuse.

Fuyumi and the work she's doing to mend the family I guess would align her with the Hero Public Safety Commission or the Police Commission and their propagandist agendas to maintain "justice" (or peace at home) and the balance of society. Though I find both groups to be far more nefarious than I'd like to imagine she is, her desperate smile-first mentality does seem to be similar to the veneer of unopposed strength the HPSC tries to put forward.

Natsuo would embody those who are challenging hero culture as the status quo a la The League of Villains, Hassaikai and Stain supporters. He's openly critical of Endeavor with other members of the family as well as to Endeavor's face, constantly reminding him of the travesties committed against his siblings. However, I feel like he is similar in metaphorical function to Rei where he lacks strength to really do any damage just yet.

Shoto, downtrodden but showing promise, would be a pretty pointed representation of the new generation of people possessing quirks and those that follow. One, his power is likely to out class Endeavor's which is in line with the Quirk Singularity Theory which was presented and illustrated during his supplementary provisional lessons with the unruly elementary schoolers. Two, we see that Shoto is who Endeavor wishes to safeguard the future for (something else manifested during that finishing course for Pro Heroes as it were). Third, and I think most importantly, during the Stain arc, Shoto was able to acknowledge the existence of opposing schools of thought to hero culture calling Stain an idealist which contrasted starkly against Deku's ignorance about anything but strict reverence for hero culture. Because it started at home. While Shoto may not side with Stain or other idealists, he is intimately aware of the flawed hero system if someone like Endeavor can be a publicly lauded a hero while privately being as morally reprehensible as the villains he seeks to subjugate. Within the focus group of the Todoroki family, this is demonstrated by his dismissive and antagonistic opposition to Endeavor which is similar to Natsuo's demeanor. But it is conflicted by a nostalgic admiration for Endeavor and, by extension, hero culture as illustrated by an unexpectedly sympathetic reaction synced with Fuyumi when Endeavor was on the ropes against an OP Nomu and the pursuit of his own pro-hero career. Notably, Shoto's physicality in quirk and appearance is in line with this propensity for paradoxical thinking. I think Shoto's hope for Endeavor's triumph in that moment shows a lingering connection to hope that heroes will prevail. If Shoto represents generations to come, his conflicting emotions can speak to the earnest hopes of Class 1A but also illustrate how that seems to be an antiquated viewpoint as illustrated by the unruly children. Their strength and determination to make a splash is inspired by their observation that the balance of power is slipping from the hands of heroes and Shoto seems like he'd be a great example of that.

TLDNR: We, as the reader, are missing critical information about the Todoroki family based on the siblings' unique behavior toward Endeavor despite a presumed similarity in upbringing.

MY HERO ACADEMIA Heros and Villians MASTERLIST

LAST UPDATED 11/30/2022

Enji Todoroki (Endeavor)

Unholy - Enji Todoroki (Endeavor) x PopStar!Reader

Warnings: Playful hitting, alcohol consumption, marriage affair Summary: Inspired by Unholy By Sam Smith and Kim Petras. As promotion for their newest album, Y/n revealed a mysterious hint at one of the songs true meanings. Enji Todoroki starts to quietly panic at this vague reveal by the young singer. Hawks is all too ready to fan the flames of Pro Hero Endeavor’s insecurities.

Kai Chisaki (Overhaul)

Yakuza Royalty - Kai Chisaki x GenderNeutral!Reader

Part 1 / Part 2

Summary: Y/n is the only child and now head of the Y/l/n clan, the only other family still under the Shie Hassakai. Kai Chisaki and Y/n grew up together. Y/n watched as Kai constantly caused trouble ‘in the name of the Yakuza,’ and Kai watched as Y/n got praised for every little thing they did. Now, Y/n reports directly to Kai, but their familiarity causes Y/n to undermine and questions his authority, something Overhaul seems to overlook.

Bnha manga chapter 357 review

Spoilers from the manga!

I've been really busy last month but here is the review. I'll post Shigaraki's part later.

Then again they are pointing out that Endeavor is great as a hero and that he is now trying to atone. I like how he imagines Shouto's future and how he doesn't want to get in his (and the others) way and how he wants to take care of Touya. However, while it's not too little, it is too late.

I think the implication with Eri is that Endeavor will lose his quirk and that will be the ultimate karma. He cared so much about powerful quirks that he made a lot of mistakes and that took him to lose this own in a key moment. As a writer, I see this is so Deku is the one that takes Shigaraki out but it's also poetic justice (?).

I'm worried for Eri though, because even if it's AfO using the stuff made by the Shie Hassaikai, she may still feel guilty and that'll be the reason she goes back to not wanting to use her quirk. After all, her quirk is a bit like the Dragon Balls of this anime: the thing that can undo the tragic consequences of the battles. It came to the point where the characters thought "it doesn't mather if I die, I'll be revived", so they could be as reckless as they wanted as long as they won. While it's not bad per se, it takes away part of the drama and the risk.

Hopefully, if she keeps using it, the limitations of her quirk will prevent it from becoming that.

Part 3 - Chapter 44 - Kamino: Knock Out

Blank Canvas Part 3

AO3 - here

Fanfiction.net - here

And we're back! Just got of work and came home to a tasty meal of artichokes! Boil 'em and nom on the leaves (petals?) in melted butter mixed with garlic. MmMmm! Delicious. Alrighty, let us continue on the journey through the Kamino fight. Stay strong, All Might! Big baddy All For One wants to kick your butt.

Warning for a lot of mentions of blood but I do not at all go into any actual gore other than that. Not the biggest fan of going super realistic and detailed with it comes to that part of violence.

Linktree to all the things!

End notes for the chapter are under the line.

All Might has prevailed! :D But of course he would. Can't let All For One have his way now could we? Though I gotta say I had a lot of fun writing All For One's dialogue in this chapter. He's just so manipulative and evil.

A little more interaction with Izuku and Gran Torino! Gotta check in with the green bean. I know, he's still stuck there but the fight is over now so he's safe. And again, reasons to be revealed in the future.

So All For One said it. Izuku is his son. Oof. How will All Might react to that in the aftermath? We'll see! Btw, going through this part in canon, with All For One listing off the quirks he used, all I could think of was DBZ abridged. The part where Goku is fighting Vegeta.

Goku: Kaioken...! Vegeta: No. Goku: ...times... Vegeta: No, no, no. Goku: ...FOUR! Vegeta: FUUUUUUUUUUUck! -blown away-

(If you haven't seen DBZ abridged, please do. Still hilarious. XD For me without having watched it and even more so after I watched the whole show.)

Fun Facts About Japan:

There are many ways to say goodbye in Japanese. With All Might saying goodbye to All For One I thought we'd talk about it now. And to show we haven't said goodbye to this section. :P Nope! No sayonara to FFAJ as it exists in my notes. XD

Speaking of sayonara (さよなら), it isn't actually the standard way to say goodbye to someone. Reason being is it doesn't just mean goodbye but more goodbye forever or an extended period of time. Kind of like 'I don't know when I will see you again' feel. Kids will use it growing up but adults typically don't preferring to use ones not so formal.

So how else can you say goodbye? At the work, I would greet the teachers with an osaki ni shitsurei shimasu ( おさきにしつれいします , お先に失礼します ) which essentially means pardon me/forgive me for leaving before you'. In Japan, they are very work focused and the teachers put a lot of extra hours in past when school let's out. Then the reciprocated response is otsukaresama deshita ( おつかれさまでした , お疲れ様でした ) which is them thanking you for all your hard work for the day. It doesn't have a direct translation into English though. It uses the verb tsukareru ( つかれる , 疲れる ) which means 'to be tired' and is used in a way to say 'you look tired from working so hard'. A show of appreciation for your efforts essentially.

Then with family and good friends you can use jyaa/jyaa ne ( じゃあ/じゃあね) or mata/mata ne ( また/またね ) which are both short for jyaa, mata ne ( じゃあまたね ). The more formal version is sore dewa mata ne ( それでわまたね ) meaning 'see you later then' and jyaa is just a casual sound between close friends and those younger than you. Essentially saying jyaa ne serves as 'bye-bye'.

There's a bunch more ways so if you're interested you can check these links out if you're interested. :) About sayonara and goodbye greetings in general then otsukaresama deshita and jyaa ne specifically. Enjoy!

There ya have it! The Kamino fight has come to an end but we're not done yet. Come on, it's me! :P The fight may have been won but now there's the aftermath to deal with. Oof. Lots to unpack after all this. ;) We'll see what's up with that next time. じゃあね！
