The fuck is wrong with Japan?
My father destroyed my family, mistreated my mom, ruined my childhood, so am I supposed to forgive him, otherwise I am the villain of the story only because my father is a great warrior? Fuck off Japan.

probably a case of unreliable narrator.
Nobody is "bad" on purpose

>Mother burns son
>Father is to blame
>>
Yes, yes.
Except through the magic of storytelling, you experience the world through Endeavor's eyes and come to understand him as a man, and that he regrets these things and wants to make amends.
One of the benefits fiction has over real life is that you don't have to make much of an effort to understand a character 90% of the the time, because you're told explicitly that the author wants you to feel.

>My father destroyed my family, mistreated my mom, ruined my childhood, so am I supposed to forgive him, otherwise I am the villain of the story only because my father is a great warrior? Fuck off Japan.
well yeah kinda, forgiveness is a heroic trait and we get plenty of insight into how endeavor has genuinely changed and actively tries to make amends for what he did, in the real world i dont think its something that could be fixed and shoto would not even reconnect with him until much later in life, but everyone is a super empath in the world of storytelling so once the audience emotionally understands something every other relevant character in the story does, otherwise it'd just be narratively frustrating
>>
>anon discovers Japanese honor culture
>>
>>283986174
Because it shows he truly got past his childhood trauma and grew into an adult. It doesn't emotionally affect him anymore. And he now sees his father as a broken man and chooses to help him.
>>
>>283986174
It's fiction so he changes for the better. Makes sense to forgive him then. In reality they just get worse and then they die, so I understand why you wouldn't want to forgive them.
>>
Like, his name is fucking "Endeavor"; it's actually a bit on the nose, now that I think about it.

It's crazy how the mangaka had to keep escalating Endeavour's behavior an show him in the absolute worst light possible. An the fanbase still doesn't hate him.

Also Endeavour did nothing wrong.
That crazy bitch burnt her son because she couldn't hurt Endeavour
>>
>>283986174
Takes some media literacy classes. The text tells us that heroes are good. Endeavor is a hero that does heroic things, this means that Endeavor is a good guy.
>>
>>283986174
Japanese people like characters like that. They like characters who don't stoop to the villains level which is why "if you kill him you're just as bad as the villain" meme is so common.
If it was something like wrestling, if the villain fights dirty and hits the protag with a chair japanese people want the protag to endure and keep fighting fair. In burgerland if the villain hits the protag with a chair they want the protag to do the same or worse back.
Forgiving him makes him more heroic so he forgives him so thats all there is to it. This isn't a deep story where characters relationships can have nuisance, this is a comic book for little boys, Shoto could never be written where he would not forgive his father because Shoto is a good guy and thats what good guys do.

>Writing in the 1990s and 2000s, author Albert Jack[18] and Messianic minister Richard Pustelniak,[19] claim that the original meaning of the expression was that the ties between people who have made a blood covenant (or have shed blood together in battle) were stronger than ties formed by "the water of the womb", thus "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb". Neither of the authors cites any sources to support his claim.

Fans call it "character development" but Hori changed the character retroactively into someone who was never that bad to begin with. He was just misunderstood, making it feel unfair to hate him. As opposed to someone who destroyed his family out of pure selfishness and only realizes how awful he's been once he got what he wanted, meaning he deserves scorn but can earn sympathy and forgiveness without the characters or audience being manipulated into giving it to him.
>>
>>283986174
the problem is not about forgiving someone or not, it's about the author doing a complete 180° on this characters personality.

>I guess I am a good dad now and am sorry for everything I did before
there is zero reason for this sudden change

Literally when is it stated that not forgiving endeavir would be morally wrong. Endeavor knows what he did was wrong he apologized for it but he knows hes not entitled to forgiveness. Hes apologizing to let people know that he accepts his faults not because he expects a pat on the back???
>>
>>283994166
He realize all his goals were pointless
>>
>>283986247
sadly true

we had chapters dedicated to his realization that all he did beforehand was meaningless and had to cope with what to do for his and and his family's future. He also had Hawks who helped him open up as a person.

Did he? The manga keeps bashing your head with the fact that he was a shitty person and his son keeps reminding him how shitty he was every time they met and in front of everyone nonetheless. The manga doesn't whitewash or convay you it's a misunderstanding. It just explores the story from different angles.

The entire Todoroki drama subplot was just an excuse for Hori to put subtle breeding propaganda in his manga. Based and Abe-pilled.

>The manga keeps bashing your head with the fact that he was a shitty person and his son keeps reminding him how shitty he was every time they met and in front of everyone nonetheless.
He knows he's a shitty person, is apologetic, and willing to make amends. The son does this because his arc is about learning to forgive his father. This is made easier by showing these "different angles" that reveal he was not as terrible as his son thought he was, it was complicated, he had good intentions, he made mistakes, etc. It's Itachi 2.0
>>
>>283997013
Does anyone actually admit Itachi made mistakes in Naruto though? I thought everyone praised him for what a good boy he was.
>>
>>283997013
Kishi made a 180 turn with Itachi. There was no buildup, no journey to be better not trying to do the right thing. Itachi went from a man who committed genocide his entire clan to a man who stopped a larger war.
>>
>>283997098
Itachi does, but because he is insane he thinks what he did wrong was not ask for his six-year-old brother's help with a complex political situation.

He is still wishy-washy and incisive, and nothing is ever delved into how he feels about Endeavor after the post first war hospital reunion scene (and even then he says nothing specifically about his feelings towards Endeavor, just that he is fine with the team up to stop Touya).

Shoto is boring. That's why the story pivots from Shoto to Endeavor as the main protagonist in the Todoroki storyline.

I wonder if horikoshi had an even edgier plan for the endgame. Like Shoto telling his father to go fuck himself and having him move out. Feels like he couldn't make a decision (without majorly alienating the fanbase) or he couldn't flesh out whatever he had in mind.

Are you shocked? Look at Naruto for example. He called obito , the sole reason he had no parents and a shitty childhood the "coolest guy"
>>
>>284001617
Endeavor was originally supposed to die, but during the High End arc Horikoshi decided not to kill him and generally to keep the casualties low on the hero side. Shoto's arc was always about him coming to terms with his dad though. It was obvious by the Stain arc.
>>
>>284001390
You're massively oversimplifying what actually happened, anon.
>Endeavor had already been physically and psychologically abusing Rei for years (forcing the Quirk marriage, isolating her, treating the children like breeding experiments, hitting her when she tried to protect them, etc.).
>Rei was showing clear signs of severe mental deterioration: paranoia, auditory hallucinations, constantly covering her ears from the children’s crying because it reminded her of Endeavor’s shouting.
>On the day of the incident, five-year-old Shoto came home with his left side (the fire side) completely exposed. Rei, in a psychotic break, saw Enji’s face superimposed on Shoto’s and screamed “I can’t take it anymore!” before throwing boiling water on him.
>Immediately after throwing the water, Rei collapses in absolute horror at what she’s done, clutching her head and apologizing.

>Endeavor then backhands her across the room so hard she slams into the wall while she’s still on the floor cradling her head in mental anguish.

The story never presents Rei’s action as "justified abuse." It presents it as the tragic breakdown of a woman who was systematically destroyed by long-term domestic violence until she snapped.
The manga also never lets her off the hook: she spends over a decade in a mental institution, repeatedly calls what she did to Shoto unforgivable, and even in the finale she still carries crushing guilt and says she doesn’t deserve to be part of the family again.
>>
The story with Todoroki's family is so stupidly toothless.

>Hori refused to kill Endeavor
>but he also couldn’t fully redeem Endeavor, because the abuse was drawn way too brutally and realistically for a simple "I’m sorry, let’s hug" to land.
>Result: a limbo resolution where Endeavor is alive, retired, wheelchair-bound, and spends the rest of his life visiting comatose Dabi to talk at him while the family is permanently fractured. Nobody is happy, nobody is healed, nobody got catharsis.

Which is why >>284001518 is ultimately right, as much as it's a simple response. Even something as simple as having Dabi kill Endeavor to set up a revenge story would have worked miles better than what we got.
>>
>>284003440
Killing him would have been toothless. If he's dead, that's that. You don't do that shit and get a happy ending. As was pointed out, one of his kids straight up still refuses to fully forgive him

Fuyumi was one she actually wanted. Natsuo and Shoto were more forced by Endeavor out of his own mental state brough upon by Toya being a fucking nut and All Might being too good at his job.
>>
>>283987872
Hard to hate the best character in the manga.

>Seniority means everything so unless you get really lucky you just have to deal with your 80+ year old boss' retarded decisions even if you see the problems coming a mile away
>>
>>283997013
Exactly. Plus Endeavor, while apologetic, is ultimately not asking for forgiveness. When he gets shit on, he takes it because he knows he deserves it for what he did. By the end, Natsuo in particular is ultimately concrete in his intentions to leave Endeavor in the dark about his future and cut him off, and Endeavor accepts that.

I mean, the guy was legit gonna build his family a whole new house for them to live in while he stays alone in the old one. He flat-out dreams of his family being happier without him ffs

mha was NEVER well-written, people just conviced themselves it was because Hori can draw obscenely hot women and it was coming out around the time the MCU wasn't something you'd be embarrassed to admit you're into
if it had been realistic then Endeavor should have gotten divorced and then re-married with his hot secretary and started a new family with her, his children would have been proud of him for his progress but also angry it wasn't with them he tried to be a good father to

Can all sins be forgiven? Should they?

The thing that makes Endavours case really fishy is that he's No.2 Hero. If he retires or goes rogue the Japanese defacto millitary suffers greatly. This kinda rexonfextualizes a lot of things but isnt intended to be deeply thought on by the narrative.

Exactly. If it were a stressed father because his wife is abusive, and he then took out his frustration on his children who have nothing to do with it, nobody would be condoning what he did.

People need to understand that eugenics isn't the land whales cunts want you to believe. The mere idea of not wanting to marry/breed an ugly cunt is eugenics because no one wants their little shits to look ugly. No one wants to father children with someone with the cancer gene or heart disease. Humanity and the old kingdom always sought a healthy spouse and a stronger heir for their legacy and name. It's normal.

The turning point is spelled out across multiple arcs and chapters

>starting at chapter 188
>All Might retires after his final fight with All For One. Endeavor watches on live TV as the Symbol of Peace he spent his entire life chasing collapses and says "You’re next"
>For the first time, Endeavor actually gets what he wanted (No. 1 spot), but it’s hollow. It’s handed to him because All Might is gone, not because he surpassed him. The obsession that defined his entire life instantly loses all meaning.

>He has a full mental breakdown in private: screaming, punching walls, realizing he destroyed his family for a goal that turned out to be worthless.
>He explicitly tells Hawks (his new sidekick): Everything I did… was for nothing. I finally stood at the top… and there was nothing there.

like, it was explicitly said
>Multiple chapters are dedicated to his internal monologue and therapy-like conversations with Hawks and his family.
>He admits he has no idea how to be a father or even a decent person anymore.
>He decides the only thing left is to try to become a hero his children (especially Shoto) can at least look at without hating him.

>The Rei flashbacks and family confrontation hammer home exactly how monstrous he was. He doesn’t deny a single accusation.

She was not forced. Someone here once pointed out that she had one inner monologue in the inter manga, and it's to confirm that she made her choices many times and walked that path herself. She didn't say no to having sex but to the idea of using their unborn children as pawns to surpass All Might and get that little psychopathic firstborn of theirs to stop burning himself.

He didn't want the title of number one. He wanted to be the strongest. How much more do you want Hori to spoon-feed you

The real issue is that the story with Endeavor's family is just grim for the sake of it. There's no catharsis, nothing. It only exposed how boring Todoroki is.
>>284008784
That felt like damage control. I'm sorry, but I see no reason to give Horikoshi the benefit of the doubt. A lot of key decisions feel like there was no thought given to the long term story, or the endgame.

>>284008784
I see. Must've forgot. My memory escapes me sometimes.

>>284008775
Endeavor post-No.1 is someone I like far more than who he was before Kamino. A man who doesn't deny who he was, but pushes forward regardless to atone for his mistakes. And it is legit signified by how his fuckin' fire beard gets used less and is less intense. When your dream to surpass the strongest rings hollow, you can do naught but face your mistakes and move forward to try and be better, regardless of how those around you see you.

Is there a reason why the western fanbase absolutely loathes Endavour and Mineta so much but adore the league of villains?
>>
>>284011342
You're gonna get a lot of different answers but the fact of the matter is that MHA is a gateway anime, different from Naruto. Instead of just Dudebros, it also attracts the insufferable safe-space tumblr crowd (women, numales, alphabet people) due to It being capeshit with bishounen characters and it releasing in the mid 2010s during their adolescence. To put it simply, Half of MHA's fanbase is the Steven Universe audience.

The actual villains in this show are their heckin precious cinnamon rolls. Mineta and Endeavor are too ugly to be loved in their eyes (despite any lie or excuse they pass off), and any redemption arc isn't going to change that.
>>
>>284011323
Endeavor definitely had a part to play in Dabi's mental state.

But still, that excuses literally none of Dabi's action. Fuckin' guy literally murders people for no reason all cuz "Wahhh daddy is focusing on Shoto instead". I understand why his upbringing would lead to some toxic focus on his dad's attention, but YEESH.

Probably woulda killed Twice himself and photoshopped Hawks into the picture if Hawks didn't actually do it.

Unironically this is one of my least favorite writing tropes. The west pushes it too.

Fuyumi and Natsuo didn't deserve punishment either.

Did he? Because, as far as we saw, Endeavor 1. stopped the training 2. Begged his son to stop 3. Told him to look beyond the Hero world. But Touya kept training in secret and burned body parts that no one could see. Touya’s problem is his insecurities, he believes he is not loved or worth it. People say Endeavor should have given up on his goals for Touya but forgot he had that dream for 20 years while Touya knew that goal for 4 years.

I see what you mean but the force shit happened because Shoto said “Well mommy was forced” A child who was not there what the marriage was arranged.

>>
Endy did nothing wrong
>>
>>284014521
Oh I understand that it was technically not a retcon in-universe, but the tonal whiplash for Endeavour's entire redemption arc makes it really obvious that Horikoshi either didn't plan on a redemption arc at all initially or didn't consider just how viscerally the readerbase would hate Endeavour.

I mean literally when the family is never going to multiply again anyways as Geten says why not get their retirement fund? What reputation? The one that made them outcasts in modern times coz they were the KKK that commited one of the mutant cullings? Do families like Bakugo's look like they had a single mutant in it's lineage? There were also zero quirk people in previous generation. These guys inbred within their village to keep the property in their family but lost out like the real life ones in Showa Japan. But unlike the real life ones, they didn't get a suitable orphan outsider to be adopted through marriage to expand the family register nor did they use their connection with their new son in law to fix their situation or raise their reputation in public. They just decimated like Geten is the next gen where were the benefits of marrying No. 2? Instead they kept marrying off their kids to other people's clans for cash or sold them to CEOs like Redestro. No males left at all other than Geten? Why sell the kid? Marry him to his main branch cousin! Grannyn is poor? Why didn't she just ask to live with them considering it made sense she'd take care of house and infants and pregnancy issues? Nah she wanted rid of her daughter and any excuse to get more money for their main branch and was making excuses on hubby's behalf. Normally it would all be for the sake of Rei's brother inheriting everything but we were never told if she had siblings who benefitted. And also if what Geten was saying were true Rei wouldn't be so fertile and both he and she won't be that normal looking and pretty. KKK Eugenics however was proven with their quirks being extra special strong. Also how come it would sense that Geten being in MLA with a certain worldview that the Himuras should have been in the MLA too but no. They don't even want to stir their asses and get some business seed money. Trading the kids keeps their gardens pristine.

As for the second point it was damage control only because Hori never meant it and people misinterpreted. He only intended to show the toxic mental state that stagnated and the slap.

You are supposed to forgive because you are a hero who has a higher moral standing than the rest of us. In this series where killing can be justified there is no greater act for a hero than the act of forgiveness and even more so that is a personal one. And in Endeavor's act of contrition, why shouldn't he? It is an act of mercy on his part pretty much the highest act a hero could do. It doesn't absolve Endeavor of what he did because Todoroki doesn't have the power to do so. So what it is then? What is forgiveness? It is the act of relieving oneself of resentment and hatred because of the actions or trespass of others. It doesn't say absolution, nor redemption, nor forgetting what he did. For his part it is him not being consumed by hatred or resentment for what Endeavor did to his family, the same one that consumed Dabi. Forgiveness is the recurring theme in Todoroki's character arc and in each time he let's go of his resentment becomes a better hero in doing so. It is unfulfilled then if he doesn't forgive his father in his hour of contrition and he will not become a hero fully. Forgiveness therefore is the complete culmination of his character development and the highest example of him being a hero--- a path he willingly chose.

So what's the problem then? Why are you mad that Todoroki forgave his father when it was a personal choice for his own benefit? Why shouldn't he be free from his own grudges and hatred?

He didn't really forgive him, tho.
It feels like Horikoshi wrote himself into a corner. Couldn't fully redeem Endeavor. Couldn't kill him via Dabi to set up a revenge story, with Todoroki saying he didn't deserve to get killed.
>Why shouldn't he be free from his own grudges
because his victims aren't free from the damage he caused and likely never will. The story with this family ultimately feels like just misery for the sake of it. There's no catharsis.
>>
>>284018891
He did. You don't need a whole page of Shoto saying “O’ father I forgive you”. Hori fully redeemed Endeavor even the son who hates him the most told him he had done right but since Endeavor hates himself he disagrees. And it was never stated it was Dabi he killed Endeavor. The story was never about revenge.
The victims can grow last their trauma and heal.
>>
>>284018891
>because his victims aren't free from the damage he caused and likely never will
why is it that in modern morality, doing good deeds is not worth anything, but doing bad deeds is a debt you have to repay?
>I have saved 100 people at significant personal risk and effort
kickass, make sure to do the same tomorrow
>I have ruined the lives of 100 people
you are a wretch and you need to personally repay each of your victims, which usually means dedicating your whole life to it, and even that will not bring back the dead so you're bad forever

I'm not proposing putting all of person's deeds on a scale, and I'm not saying that heroism excuses occasional murder
just that the regular approach sooner or later makes everybody except literal saints atone for something for the rest of their lives
it's unworkable if you think about it

at some point I think you should be allowed to just put things behind you
>>
>>284020337
>why is it that in modern morality, doing good deeds is not worth anything, but doing bad deeds is a debt you have to repay?
I mean, in this case, Endeavor most definitely ruined his family. Not alone, but he played a major part in that. And it's not something that can be fixed with
>my bad, guys, I was buggin'

>>284019429
Copium overdose. With the revenge story, you at least set up a cool fight, which is what really matters in this genre. The big issue is that with the story as it is, you're left with the question
>to what end?
As in, what was the point of all this? A lot of the conclusions in mha generally underwhelmed, at best. The story of Endeavor's family just feels like there was something else initially planned, and either time crunch or Hori being a hack led to the endgame being garbage.

Dude, just chose one idea. You can't say Shoto hates his dad then expect a revenge story if Dabi had killed his father. Shoto and Dabi’s fight is not bad. Hori just didn't have Shoto and Daniks relationship an emotional wight that is why we ended with a shit “Udon” line.

Japanese has a really retarded concept of family and you can see it in their anime.

You're not "supposed" to forgive him.
Natsuo didn't forgive Endeavor and it wasn't framed as the wrong choice.
Shoto simply recognized that Endeavor, despite abusing him and his family, did overwhelmingly more good for the world as a whole than bad.
>>
actually couldn't they have made a fire retardant suit for Toya so he wouldn't burn himself
the technology has to exist for that in universe and the Todorokis are rich so Endeavor just giving up on him like that was kind of dumb in hindsight
>>
>>284036061
If the technology existed, Endeavor would have used it and he wouldn't complain about how his overheating is a big problem for him. Dabi's problem is even bigger compared to Endeavor because unlike his dad who have fire resistance, Touya has ice resistance and is weak to fire. It literally comes from his skin. There is very little technology could to to help alleviate that.

Endeavor should at least be stripped off his hero license and title, imprisoned, and given the Suicide Squad treatment. Just let him out for black ops bullshit.

You can see why most of his fans are women who are inherently not obsessed with powerscaling.

Like I've never seen a guy who likes him, especially not after the manga ended. That just pisses me off, hes not even that gay since he does give girls their phone number.

Fuck off, the Endeavor situation was one of the few things Hori did well. It's not like everyone forgave him either, one son probably never will and another died still hating him. The ones who chose to forgive him just recognized that he's genuinely tried to change and isn't a monster, he was a deeply flawed man who hurt people in his obsession to surpass All Might.
>>
>>284064812

Is it bad that stain fought with All might??? He should be irredeemable by default since he's a villain, yet it was hype as shit.
>>
Endeavour is a piece of garbage imo but he is a fantastic character and I think he's written so you can either really like or dislike him. When people fight over him they're basically validating a masterclass in draftsmanship on Hori's part, he's really cool

I used to have abusive tendencies so I think I identified with him and used to see him apologetically but as I've grown and seen what people like him have done to make me who I am and ruin the lives of people around me, as well as take my own accountability, I started to both really dislike but also understand him as a person better

By accountability I don't mean grovel a twitter or reddit's feet or accept horrible things being done to me, but accept genuinely where I went wrong, and as a result I can see the world being a better place without people like him- but I also get that it's why he is such a superbly written character

For Rei's part, she did admit she was the one who burned Shoto WITHOUT any addendum or justification about the circumstances when asked by the news, so I don't get the narrative that people think anyone but Shoto blamed Endeavour. That's his prerogative, you can call him wrong for that

All this makes me think is that I miss the shounen genre at it's height, besides HxH I don't really like many characters from many other authors, anything I should be reading?

it's 50/50. Endeavour's real foible was not keeping it up with Toya and letting him learn at a lower heat output, since honestly Toya had an ice quirk - nitrogen? - later on that could've awakened and helped nullify some of the blowback. If you agree to train your child and help them achieve a dream in at least some capacity you need to stick with it, you cannot just 180. This sounds way out of the way but I also wish the manga addressed All Might's reaction to this by making him learn about it, if his inspiring others and effortless theatrics created this clusterfuck would he have remorse for how parasocial and secretive the connection between him, OFA and the rest of society was?

Endeavour had no reason to believe regular work couldn't surpass AM because AM was lying and cheating. This isn't a mistake per se but it is a thing that I'd think he'd personally worry about if he's told

>>284074275
I think it's because domestic situations are a grey area in our society that do not yet have the required protections, which is why society is infested with niggertrannies and narcissists. People get protective over victims of people who abuse wives, children - and yes, they should also have the same sympathy for guys who lose their shit and swing first after hours of being yelled at and abused by women

We instinctively understand it as the cradle of families and our lives and a place where we're really vulnerable, so it becomes a little personal when someone does that stuff

They hurt each other a lot in the end, Endeavour more so to her and her in wounding Shoto and making him live with the guilt. I like to think he was her whole world at some point, so it's easy to rekindle those feelings. She is very strong, he even asks if she is the same person he married when she astounds him

I like to believe she lives as an example of yet another wonderful thing in his life that he will miss out on being able to enjoy properly now he is confined to a wheelchair and it is befitting punishing

Yeah no. The only reason people sympathize with fags like serial killers and mass murderers is that they have never met one. If you ever met a serial killer there is a 99.999999% you will be dead and shitflex will hire a hot dude to play your murderer. The reason why no one can identify with the serial killer victim is that they are dead to post shit like “well, ahhh maybe he was abused.”

Nono, I was just explaining why people had a seemingly disproportionate spite towards Endeavour. It's that and that he is not as bad as them so they'd expect better. Again it's important he's written this way: I wouldn't change a thing, I agree with >>284048976

Yes, the mass murderer is usually going to be far harder to get through to and I'd assume most courts would rule them as far more irredeemable. I doubt Endeavour will ever be tried. The people wanting Dabi to be redeemed are a little delusional, the man is halfway to his 30s

Dude, I'm not saying Endeavor wasn't a flaming garbage. But to elevate his crimes further to demonize him in the hope that Dabi’s crimes look trivial is some bullshit move.
The situation was more complicated than “he forced her” Rei doesn't even have a page. We don't know her age or what she likes. She doesn't even have an in-screen talk with Shoto. They only time we ever see her inner thought was when she as it she made these choices that led to that moment. She fully agreed to marrying a man for the sake of having a stronger quirk. People need to stop treating her like some NPC.

adding that I think that's one of endeavour's most redeemable qualities, actually, and it ties into his quirk. He is on fire and subsisted in a post 'endeavour is dead!' afterlife which is a punishment in a lot of world religions. Society was too undercooked to be able to punish him at all, so he decided to punish himself and take everything on his back by saving as many people as he could, eventually culminating in begetting a succinct punishment for his sins

I definitely see why Natsuo relented in the end and said he found him really cool for it

I seriously think he'd be dangerous if he had been more cooperative with others. All he really needs is someone to immobilise an opponent or disable their quirk/control their mind and the big hug shit can ruin anyone, his sheer destructive force - if people just don't escape his bullshit - is on par with All Might's

She had to have agreed to it, yeah. She was aware of the monetary compensation involved but it was down to her in the end.

>nobody is bad on purpose
Everything bad he did was just because he thought it was hilarious and based. He did it for the love of the game
