As the story of My Hero Academia draws to a close, fans are reflecting on the different storylines and one antagonist seems to be getting unfairly portrayed.
The conclusion of My Hero Academia is approaching, with just a few chapters remaining. While the exact ending of the story remains uncertain, certain character journeys have already been resolved.
The conclusion of Shigaraki’s story marks the end of All Might’s and some other supporting characters’ narratives. However, Endeavor’s story is still ongoing and his troubled son Dabi remains in critical condition after sacrificing himself in an explosion to defeat All For One.
The final moments of the Todoroki family in the presence of Dabi showed Endeavour and the others refusing to let him endure his suffering alone. These heartwarming scenes have been seen by some as a way for the Todoroki patriarch to redeem himself. However, as a Reddit thread highlights, the true intention behind these moments was for Endeavour to atone for his past actions.
“According to the thread, Endeavor has expressed numerous times that he feels unable to repair the damage he caused to his family. However, he is determined to honor their wishes and strive to become a better person.”
Despite the misconception surrounding its true nature, the writing of this entire character arc is undeniably flawless. It is often underappreciated, but I believe its brilliance should not be discredited.
Despite being portrayed in a more sympathetic light as a father who is actively involved and taking responsibility, this does not absolve Endeavour of his past actions. He played a significant role in the creation of one of the most notorious villains in the manga and superhero anime world. However, he acknowledges this and is determined to improve and make amends.
“According to a comment, an essential aspect of Endeavor’s atonement is that he has continuously endured the repercussions of his past actions since dedicating himself to his path.”
According to another individual, both atonement and redemption are important goals that he should aim for, as well as anyone else who wishes to improve themselves, regardless of their past actions.
According to the aforementioned statement, there are those who think that Endeavor will experience some form of redemption, though this is a subtle aspect to consider.
“Another user points out that Enji is often misunderstood. They acknowledge that it’s acceptable to not be a fan of his character, but argue that those who truly grasp his character development understand this. However, it becomes problematic when someone declares that “abusers don’t deserve mercy”while supporting characters like Dabi or the League of Villains, who have committed even more heinous crimes than Enji.”
The beauty of My Hero Academia is that it presents us with well-written heroes and villains who challenge us to hold complex and sometimes conflicting perspectives. This has been a source of enjoyment for fans for more than a decade.
