I once saw someone say that “Endeavor is not the symbol of peace. He is the Flame of Hope.” -Some random fan
I remember seeing that, but I'm also now realizing that parallel with All Might protecting his "flame" of OFA, which then immediately the next number one hero is pure Flame lmao
Symbol of power is what i always called him
“Hahaha…😢”- Every Manga reader out there
cringe
Omg i love that
endaveor sliced the building so hawks could fly the pieces to the ground, since the building was collapsing into the street or other buildings
Yeah it’s very easy to miss why he did, subtle detail
Worth pointing out that the building probably would have collapsed on itself as well, and presumably anyone in the lower half that Hawks said he wasn't able to get to safety.
As you say though, it's nice that they point out how much collateral damage a falling building would do to the rest of the block.
I just wish they were less subtle cause the shonen demographic are used to overt exposition and often miss subtlety sadly
@@dejisauce6025 is not that subtle. They literally show the building collapsing and one of the heros on the ground even says that the building is going to fall.
@@KurNorock watch like 15 reactions and you'll see why they say that
Man regardless of whether you “forgive” endeavor or not, you gotta love the line of “you were the only person to seriously try to surpass all might” hawks is that little endeavor fanboy kid all grown up
I love how the Todoroki family is handled in this series. Cause you have Endeavor, who had abused and/or neglected all of his family, but is now trying to redeem himself and become a better person. But he's not just automatically forgiven by the entire family and each family member is different in their reactions to his growth. It feels very natural to how real life families in these types of situations would be going forward.
He did nothing wrong
infact he never even hit her
also cant wait for you clowns to learn who really was to blame for all this shit
Endeavour not being able to surpass Almight is the reason why this family was formed... Endeavour purposely selected the girl with ice power so that he can have offspring with both powers... Due to excessive heat his own body have tolls on it but with the ice power the overheating can be overcome... Shoto having both powers of ice and fire means he is more superior than Endeavour and nearly as powerful as Almight...
@@ujwalghimire3743 I don't think you realize how insanely powerful Allmight was. Everything we've seen from him in the series has been from a weakened version of him. Shoto is going to be powerful af but not close to Allmight
@@popcornlieutenant for real. According to all might himself, in his prime he was 60 times stronger. If that applies to his speed as well, we can use all for ones statement that it took all might 30 seconds to get from the bar to kamino (5 kilometers) and calculate that weakened all might travels at 600kph. Thats 29 times the speed of sound in his prime.
For me I was severely abused by my mother. For years I did forgive her, but I couldn’t forgive her cause she wasn’t trying to change. That’s why for me I like endeavors character, he’s not perfect but he can reflect on his past deeds and does change. For me if my mom did try to be a better person I would forgive her. It was so bad she basically used me as a punching bag, punished me for anything to the point that I was basically mute and socially awkward for years. I was lucky to have a good father that I could see on weekends, but my mom hated the bond we had and tried tons of times to break it or even destroy my father in anyway she could. My dad tried his best but because she’s the mom she had the main custody. If it wasn’t for hun I probably would have ended myself cause he gave me hope for a better life. Without that hope, only abuse and loneliness I doubt I could have lasted as long as I did. ( it was from 3 years old, my dad saw it, till I was 16)
I know your struggle my man, i was the punching bag for my mom for 6-13, always smacked around for "looking like him so much i could slap you" and she did.
I thought about running away, ending my life, anything as my dad wasnt around, my brother was having his first kid at 18, so i was not his focus in keeping me safe, i was lucky in that after my mom hit me one day i looked at her and told her she would never hit me again, and whatever my face was at that time she never did it again.
Oh mentally or physically. If it's mentally I can relate.
I agree, you don't usually see abusers of any sort accepting or admiting things that they did, even more so trying to atone for them or simply change. My family was the same until I grew up, then they were like "nothing happened, what are you talking about?", meanwhile I'm an asocial wreck and loner for life (so far), yeah, nothing happened...
@@loserhimself4044 I relate so much to this I recently went no contact with my moms side of the family. I kept trying to be there but they genuinely don’t like me. My mom decided that for my birthday we’d celebrate her birthday and her sisters birthday. I’ve almost always had to share my birthday. Didn’t even get my first birthday gift till I was 13 it was McDonald toys. She didn’t even hand it to me. Two years ago my family decided to celebrate my cousins birthday on my birthday. Told me to wait a week and then barely did anything. So finally I messaged my mom saying hey I’m not okay with sharing my birthday again. I gave examples and even an example that didn’t relate to them to show it’s not just them(my step mom always overlooks my birthday and wants to skip 2 weeks for her son’s birthday. I wouldn’t mind but she’s always focused on her kids and ignored me which I should be used to but I’ve decided to care more about myself even my wife notices the unfair treatment that I usually ignore) but anyways my mom rather than speak like adults decided to show and tell everyone how I’m bringing up stuff and hurting her emotionally, I showed my wife and she agreed I was fairly respectful and just saying I don’t want to share my birthday. My siblings sided with her 3 out of 5 sent me messages saying essentially how they view me. One said I always complain which is crazy cause his idea of complaining is me and my wife drive him 8 hours to his college and on the way in a mall i say ima check this store or saying where I want to eat. Mind you if they say they don’t want it and want something else I’ve always just gone with their decision. Another tried to emasculate me by saying your grown get over it, if you wanna be a man then talk face to face. I’m used to those comments by my mom, they don’t work on me. She would usually say your the man of the house when I became 18 to try to get me to do what she wants. But I always found it gross, it’s probably how she tries to control the men she dates so to say it to me is weird. The youngest ended up saying my gifts to him aren’t great he’s becoming an adult( he’s 14 and they favorite gifts or “adult” gifts are Jordan’s very adult like) I thought maybe my sister would have my back cause everyone else had abandoned her 2 years ago and I had her back. And nope she went with my mom on vacation and keeps saying how amazing she is. I haven’t talked to them or seen them since Christmas. They also ignored me on my birthday. Mind you I didn’t want to go anywhere, do anything or even get anything. I just wanted to not share my birthday cause everything I’m the last thought. It made me realize this is how they view me and how little they care about me. So I decided that’s. I’m done, I’ll consider forgiving them only if they ever apologize but they’re not the type to apologize let alone mean it. So if I have to go the rest of my life without them I’ll do that. Anyways I’m sorry I completely get the whole what do you mean that never happened feeling. I was luckily I got one cousin that said in front of my wife how guilty he felt growing up seeing only some of my abuse. I was just happy someone admitted it happened in front of her. I hope you get that and more
Not only one of the best fights but one of the best episodes. Hate or love him, Endeavor vs Nomu is one of the best battles. Very edge of your seat energy.
5:14 Just a heads-up: The anime makes it seem like this is much more about domestic physical (or some even think sexual) abuse than it actually is.
Apparently, however, the "only" (one being one too many and shouldn't be played down, of course) instance of physical violence is the one we see in the flashback. The majority of Endeavor's "crime" was mental abuse, mainly through neglect. That's why Natsuo says he doesn't really have any memories of him. Because Endeavour hyperfocused on Shoto and segregated him from the others, essentially neglecting everyone else and giving them the impression that they are failures or worthless.
I really want to write an answer to this comment but I don't know if you are anime only or a manga reader and I don't want to risk spoiling anything for you so I'm just going to keep it for myself.
There was no sexual abuse
@@leonardohenrique5172 Precisely what I said. Please read properly, otherwise comments will be redundant or expendable.
@@mrcx6142 I got you, I just said that in case someone who thinks Endeavor did that reads the comments
@@leonardohenrique5172 I see, my bad!
When he said "I've always hated school motto" and then shouting "PLUS ULTRA" at the end.😤 *Goosebumps*
UA students can’t help themselves, they have that school motto burned into their heart.
ahhh finally this episode was one of the best
It's top 10 episodes without question and probably top 5 but those are often subjective
this episode is FUCKING PERFECT fr
Still my favorite MHA episode. So glad I hadn't read the manga by this point. I literally had NO idea if Endeavor would make it lol.
Yes Endeavor sees his past self in the nomu, a monster who thinks only of power. There is a lot of symbolism in this fight, He receives a wound on the same side as his son Shoto and a wound in the stomach like All might both to make him understand the pain he inflicted on his family and the pain of becoming number 1. In this fight he literally becomes a phoenix thanks to the wings of Hawks, he will burn, die and come back to life hoping to become someone better.
Ever since Endeavor came on the scene and you guys vocalized your dislike of him. I have been wanting you guys to watch this section of My Hero. Endeavor is a complicated character, his past actions are disturbing and unforgivable. But his arc does beg the critical and sensitive question. Can people change and should their past sins beheld against moving forward? Is redemption really possible?
Redemption? Yes, sins? Depends
@@yogainstructor4437 that's contradictory. You say they can be redeemed but the sins depend. What exactly is being redeemed at that point?
@@Anurahm_Kycor you can become a good person but it doesnt remove what you’ve done. Say someone who killed many people gets released from jail and work at a homeless shelter, donates to charity, does charity work in 3rd world nations. Have they become good? Sure. But it doesnt change the fact they killed people
@@Anurahm_Kycor endeavor’s become better but he was still an abusive husband and father.
@@yogainstructor4437 yeah no one has ever said that he wasn't those things who isn't an idiot. We already know what he did you're not bringing new information to the table. The thing in question is if people can change and if after they have changed or while they are in the process of it if you should keep holding the things that they did in the past over their heads as if it's the current them.
There is a difference between holding someone accountable for actions they took when they overstep boundaries and going "Remember when you did that bad thing" over and over even when it's irrelevant.
Endeavor will perfectly save a kid with zero collateral damage and people will be like, he's so bad at his job because he hit his wife 8 years ago. That's not necessary or helpful in any way unless he starts impeding on the family's boundaries.
Sam nodding along to Morgan's recap for a full minute like a slow motion bobblehead. 🤣
Lmaooo ngl sometimes I be zoning 😂 -Sam
She cute
Love the interpretation of Endeavor+Hawks’ burning wings as those of a phoenix. Endeavor is changing or ‘being reborn’ as a phoenix rises from the ashes. His first major fight he puts down the Nomu obsessed with the strongest, who combines quirks like he did with his children. And the beginning scene where we find out he’s trying to repent for what he did to his wife+family.
I’ll be honest after All Might vs. AFO my interest in the anime fell pretty hard but this episode is a masterpiece to me.
Endeavor's theme song pretty much sums up why he is one of my favorite characters:
Just another hero
Can't you hear cries for help?
Just a hero
I was dropout and coward
Sick and tired of my weakness
The more I buck for the power
The more I'm broken
More I'm frightened
But that's the time I must be strong
Well I damage myself again and again
It's simply for the victims of sorrow
I'll be the man even if I'm just another hero
Just another hero
Don't hide myself in regret
Face my silhouette
I'm the most passionate
It's my identity
I'm never gonna give up
Never gonna look back
Can't take on such an ugly war
There are many cries for our help
There are hopes for all the heroes who scar over their hurt
I am the heir of the cup
Ain't no stroke of my luck
Can't stand back or just stay away
There are many cries for our help
There are hopes for all the heroes who fight for our world
How do I live?
How do I dream?
Sometimes wanna sing the blues
Must tighten my reins
But hard to obey
You know I'm not perfect enough
How do I grieve? How do I scream?
I just wanna be the guy
Yes, I'm still overwhelmed
But no time to rest
And I will say "Here I come!"
Just another hero
Can't you hear cries for help?
I wonder if Horikoshi was involved when they were making Endeavor's theme because we first heard it in s2 but it talks about things that come in s6 and s7 (in terms of his character development and redemption arc).
I can write an essay on this ep, this is the first time i truly 'rooted' for Endeavor. He, and the show, acknowledges he was terrible and caused A LOT of pain, how do you forgive someone like that, but it also showed, through that AMAZINGLY cool fight, that he really is trying to change and sacrifice, and has given up on the pursuit of power and instead trying to be a hero and reform himself so that he can be someone Shoto is proud of. Really excellently written, so emotional, honestly I never thought Id root for Endeavor after seeing how he treated his family, but the question is posed, can someone like that change and can others forgive him and look at him as someone to be counted on. Anyway, essay over, GREAT reaction, really felt that emotion from both of you, which was my reaction to this ep as well. Thanks you! Great ending!!!
oh and ps, I also was INCREDIBLY impressed with Hawks, I totally get why he's number two now, amazing! He's not the little sh** I thought he was, he's so cool!
5:07 You can still grow significantly as an adult and overcome demons you’ve once struggled with… I think it’s best to give second chances if the person is genuinely trying to better themselves and are genuinely sorry. I had a very physically abusive (mentally and verbally too) mean drunk of a dad and I wanted him to die as a kid but I’ve since forgiven him and believe he’s now a different person.
So the red spikey haired kid who was hyping up endeavour is a nod to another character called Natsu from the anime Fairly Tail.
In the dub they actually got Natsu's VA to voice him. The funny thing is Natsu is a "Fire Dragon" and uses Fire Magic so it's kinda cool they had him be a fan of Endeavour in this show lol
When I listened the early comments of how unforgivable Endeavor's actions were, I was more excited to see your reaction, and hearing your breathe of relief was exactly that! Everyone hated Endeavor but THIS FIGHT, literally EVERYONE was on the edge of their seat, holding their breathe eager to see, that fist held high.
Don't get me wrong, I didn't take the reaction as forgiving his actions, but this was his start to redeem himself
A nice detail is Endeavor raising his right hand when All Might raises his left arm. He also hated saying Plus Ultra in school which means he is about a decade younger than All Might.
He's not that much younger than All Might, though. He's 46 and All Might, I'd assume he's like 49.
@@zuzu6864all might is in 60
@@euomu he is 49, you can Google it.
I mean, Shoto’s mom also burned Shoto’s face permanently and she was an adult when she did it. If she deserves grace for that mistake, Endeavor deserves some too if his family is willing to give it to him.
Endeavor did because he's an asshole. The mother was sick.
@@hiruzen200 Endeavor can’t be sick? Nobody knows what he’s gone through that made him the way he is, he also didn’t permanently injure any of his children or family.
Endeavor is without a doubt my favourite hero to watch in this show , he done some messed up shit but his development and how his mindset is now is so interesting
Totally agree.....he's basically Vegeta. A bad guy who redeemed himself.
You know it's serious when Endeavour spins like a Beyblade
This episode was genius, from the fight to the symbolism of endeavor being reborn like a phoenix. Incredible
To highlight some symbolism in the writing we’ve had all season:
Heroes being a shining beacon of hope to citizens is a really big topic in this season. The opening monologue intros always show All Might from behind standing in front of a blinding, brilliant light. Now he’s gone away and the next symbol is expected to shine just as brightly.
If you go back to when Nighteye told Deku he wasn’t worthy of One for All, he said society needs a “dazzling” hero, and he called Deku a “dim” one. He believed Mirio was a suitable replacement instead (and remember how Tamaki Amajiki says Mirio shines like the sun). Then on his deathbed Nighteye tells the heroes they must continue to smile, otherwise there won’t be a “bright future”.
Even when Deku fought Gentle and La Brava, when Deku has Gentle beat La Brava is trying to hit him and begging Deku not to take Gentle away from her. She says Gentle is her whole world, treats Deku like he’s the villain in that scene, and even says something like “what bright future? I have nothing without Gentle”.
The final bit of big symbolism is that in this fight - Endeavor’s big moment - his fire burns so brightly that he’s literally illuminating the city. All Endeavor’s attacks have an illumination theme too, like Flashfire Fist and Prominence Burn. Even though we believe he’s not worthy of being #1 because of the kind of person he is, we’re being shown he actually is worthy because he is that literal shining light that people need right now.
I know this is a month ago but the “Phoenix” catch is such a good on that I completely missed when I first read.
Endeavor almost did sacrifice himself. He was already overheating half way through the fight. Doing that last prominence burn could have legitimately killed him.
I used to hate Endeavor when I first started MHA, when I got to this episode specifically I couldn't anymore. I had to admit that he was changing for the better, and I couldn't help but support him. Going forwards, seeing him through Hawks' eyes, well, I can't help but love him as much as he does, can't help but want to support him and do better.
It's so obvious in the manga how much Horikoshi genuinely loves Endeavor, and same, to me, he is the best character in MHA.
Oi BR
The best part of Endeavor’s redemption arc is that it isn’t easy. It isn’t fast or free and no one gives him a pass just for saying sorry. Can’t wait for you to see it unfold.
Definitely a favorite episode of MHA. It’s so emotionally charged that even little snippets of it gets to me.
Now obviously My Hero Academia doesn´t deal a lot with death and sorrow as much as for example Chainsaw Man and others and therefore the stakes may seem lower, but when episodes get going, i believe they still have that certain something that makes you hyped for the characters, so I´m glad you guys don´t fear away from sticking around and showing emotions when those moments come up, cheers!
I think it's just different stakes. People literally just assume stakes mean death regardless of whether it contributes to or weakens the narrative.
And oftentimes my hero is just taking a measured approach to building high-stakes moments as opposed to just telling you that things are high stakes and killing some people so that you can feel artificial stakes cause people scared of death. MHA stakes from like season 3 of mha and onward have been that if society doesn't find a meaningful way to fill the Gap that all might left, all of Japan will literally go to shit and hundres of thousands of people will die in the streets because he was the only one holding that chaos back. Basically since the show starts japan is on their way to downfall.
Also mha has been dealing with sorrow since the very first season. It's just that they don't kill off characters they pretended were important to make readers think "anyone can die" lookin at AOT episode 5
Sam's one of the few reactors who realized Endeavor was ready to die up there to stop the Nomu. I think that Shoto realized that too, that he almost lost his dad without reconciling, that's why he dropped down relieved
Honestly, while I still hate Endeavor’s guts, I can’t deny that he totally earned this win. He also earned that scar, but that’s a whole other story. 😅
I love this episode and how human Endeavor is. Just a start, he's building a new history for your family
2nd favorite episode after All Might v AFO
Same, which is ironic since they both are paralel episodes/fights.
The end of the Symbol of Peace, and the birth of the Symbol of Hope.
This is a big contender for my favorite episode. This is where it really hit me with “Oh shit, I love what’s going on with Endeavor!” The fact that this episode alone contributed so much to my shift in opinion towards Endeavor can never be understated. If you’d told me before this episode that I’d be crying over Endeavor, I would’ve called you crazy.
Endeavour really said "I'm going to change" with his WHOLE chest
People who hate endeavor no matter what he does in his atonement arc are people I don't fuck with
One small detail a lot tend to miss is endeavor made an arrow pointing up with his fire when he yelled hawks I love it
This episode will ALWAYS get me emotional. The start of a new Endeavor. PLUS ULTRA !!! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I love the effect they did with the heat in this episode.
You could literally feel like there was a second sun in there.
The mom was also an adult when she disfigured her son but the kids never mention it :')
She did that because she saw endeavor in shoto it doesn't excuse what she did i won't spoil anything but it is somewhat understandable when you learn more and more about endeavor and the todoroki family
@@federalbubinspector1869 no it’s not 😂 I’ve read up to chapter 330/383 or sum chapters and even still you don’t even need to have a reasoning to know that no matter how bad someone hurt or traumatized you it is never ok to take that out on someone ESPECIALLY a little kid, it’s not like she smacked him or hit him she purposely with I’ll intent poured boiling water on her kids face no matter how scarred or traumatized she was she deserves as much accountability for that just like endeavor.
@@YTK247exactly
My Hero is great because Horikoshi specifically wants to balance arcs of terror and fear with arcs of joy, peace, and the kids being good to each other and ALLOWED to be kids. You get less of it as time goes on. And it's nice that Horikoshi understands how important it is for these kids to form bonds outside of traumatic experiences.
What a brilliant episode this is! The Overhaul arc and this episode alone are the reasons why I think season 4 is the best of the lot. So well done, and I still get goosebumps after watching god knows how many times.
And the Todorokis, they just have something about them. A lot of this story, while enjoyable, isn't exactly written particularly well. But the Todorokis are.
I remember reading this in the manga as well. A chapter ended after Endeavor was struck by the Nomu and lying on the ground. It looked like the attack went through his head and I can still remember being in disbelief. Waiting for a week for the next chapter to then see this resolved. And the anime did well. The voice acting, the music, most of the important visuals were all there.
And even the "minor" parts that tend to get overlooked. Young Endeavor being the only one to attempt to bridge the insurmountable gap to All Might. The flower petal falling as Endeavor gets struck. The second that made us all think Endeavor is gonna sacrifice himself. And the exhilaration when he is the one who stands at the end, striking a pose resembling the one All Might did after fighting AFO.
No matter what one thinks about Endeavor as a character, which of course is deeply flawed (which to many certainly is the appeal - the degree to which he's flawed might be different, but that's why people like characters like Vegeta oder Bakugo) - I think all of us can agree on the brilliance here.
I've personally always preferred the 2nd hero character - Vegeta, Yuno (Black Clover), Endeavor was always an interesting one for me.
Flame based characters are always intense and well written
Rengoku is one too. Also loved his fight vs Akaza
@@peluminova2515 That's quite common, actually. We like the flawed characters more. Flawed, eventually doing better or trying to do better, getting more character development due to that. It makes them feel more human, in a way easier to connect with than the always kind-hearted, bland, at times stupid MC. And MHA is a prime example for that. While I don't hate Deku, he fully falls into that cliché, he's ridiculously bland
At the very end in the dream sequence the man with long white hair is the younger brother of All for One and the 1st User of One for All. Remember back in season 2 when All Might told Deku about the past. That's him.
what a freaking great episode!
some how they were able to emotionally exhaust the viewers with that fight scene! People were right there with them, that's great content right there!
this was the episode where Endeavor trully become number 1
Bit of an odd one, but the Endeavour redemption arc helped me to accept the Bakugo redemption too. I know it gets a lot of work later, but it really bothered me how easily he was forgiven for how utterly horrible he was to Deku
@Youngboy Better You good??
@Youngboy Better Ah I see, you're a troll. Well have a nice day/night
Idk man, bakugo is such an unrealistic character, the lil nigga woulda been slapped 8 different ways the way he talks to people lmfao
@@zanga5408 Yeah, unfortunately we're probably going to see a lot more of this sort of thing now that they're going into Season 5.
Endeavor is such an interesting character because he's introduced scary, you get Todoroki's perspective on how he was raised and his personality doesn't leave a lot of room to really know what he's thinking
I love how this scene makes you hold your breath as if your life depends on him winning like the rest of the people in the MHA world
This episode went so hard. The family dynamic with Endeavor is so real and interesting.
The best episode in the series, in my opinion. It's perfectly done with the music, animation, and so powerful.
That's the thing about Endeavour. No matter how much you hate or hope for him, there's no argument he consistently provides some of the most emotionally and physically intense fights in the series.
Are we jumping straight into S5 or doing the 2nd movie first?? There's 2 OVA's as well.
Yes, hawks can regrow his feathers but it takes a few days
I've been waiting for y'all reaction to this episode
He destroyed the top of the building because it was going to fall into the streets below. He cut it into much smaller pieces to cause less damage.
Endeavor is one of the most interesting and realistic characters in the show. Typically when abusive/crappy parents are written in modern fiction , they are basically written as complete one dimensional caricatures. 100% awful and irredeemable. Endeavor is a good example of a good person with deep flaws or, alternatively, a bad person with great virtues. I don’t think this is a spoiler but he is a significant part of Season 5, and the series is better for it.
Most powerful character has finally been introduced! "Look and see" guy has arrived!
Yes, that's officially what he's referred to as moving forward haha
I like the manga translation for it better. In the manga he is called "can't ya see-kun".
Imo one of the best anime episodes of all time.
Curious on why morgan keeps looking down? 😅 …anyways hypeeeee
I’m checking to make sure the camera is still recording! -Morgan
@Youngboy Better you're not the one who's going to suffer if something in the video goes wrong, better to look alot than to gamble, it's common sense
I love referring to Hawks and Endeavor getting yakitori as their "little rooftop date" too because Hawks has clearly wanted to take his idol to dinner since he was a kid 🙈 his favourite food, his favourite hero.
The times when Endeavor has completely redeemed its stigma, I get excited every time I watch this episode.
Endeavor being reborn like a Phoenix from Ashes
Despite Endeavor’s fucked past. I came to really like him a lot in terms of him being the number one hero a lot more than All Might.
My Hero Academia Thursdays and we get the 2nd movie on Saturday WoW! What a nice week
If Todoroki can forgive his mother, why can’t the other forgive his father? What the mother did is just as bad, even if she was driven to it.
I like Endeavor alot. He reminds me of Vegeta
I think the author knows that Endeavour is similar to Vegeta, and he plays with that similarity. When Endeavour flies up in to the sky in this episode, I think that might be a reference to a similar moment with Vegeta - I'm not super-familiar with Dragonball Z, but I think there's a moment where Vegeta also flies up in to the sky and sacrifices/blows himself up(?). So anybody who recognized that Vegeta = Endeavour would have been thinking that Endeavour was going to blow himself up like Vegeta. (And in a way, Endeavour did blow himself up - he killed his old self.)
When a show spend 3 seasons to make us HATE a Character. When you think you will never have any empathy for him. And then .... this episode happens. :D :D :D
Yup this episode messed me up a good bit
I'm sooo jealous of the Gengar hoody. What a gem of a piece of clothing
One of the more complicated issues and I think it stand out more than ever today is punishment vs rehabilitation. We as society have function as punishment as primary way of dealing with those who do wrong. But pattern keeps happening of society still treating them like garbage even after punished and so in turn they go back to doing the wrong things again. We act surprised that they didn't become a better person. We don't have to forgive but if we don't show people a better path to walk down and give them a chance then they will always walk down the wrong path. We can be better people but we can't say we want a better world if were are not working towards it for everyone and that includes even those who might not deserve it right now.
This and season 6 I can’t wait for y’all to react to
Season 6 has been going hard. Every episode since ep 1 has felt like a season finale in quality.
great episode, epic like the AllMight vs All for One 👏👏
is good to show part of the background, and put in the table that part of the screw way of Endeavor, that he was so much into himself for the reason that he was actually the only one “fighting “ AllMight’s number one position, clearly he didn’t do it the best way for his family, but it show a non perfect person getting to the top and realize how bad he was.
love you girls ❤🤗, my besto YT channel 🎉👏👏
Yes, this episode indeed marks the beginning of Endeavor's road towards atonement. I hesitate to use the word "redemption" because his past transgressions can never be erased.... but I do appreciate his efforts to improve himself going forward. Yes, Endeavor has one of the most interesting character arcs of the series, indeed....
One beautiful thing about My Hero Academia is the character developments of many characters. In main stream shonen animes, very few anime has as good character developments as MHA. Everyone hated Bakugo at the beginning and slowly he wins over people. Same with Endeavor. He's redemption arc is really good. Can't wait for you two to watch season 5 where you will see more of him
Bakugo is awful until today...
Bakugo character development wasn't that great. I am okay with him since he apologized to Deku. Until then I couldn't forgive for his past actions against him. He was a bully.
I will make you a question! If it was a reverse situation where the mom is the "bad person" and made all the stuff in stead of Endeavour. What will you think ? Will you apologize her ?
A symbol of peace, and the fire of hope. - a guy who heard it from another guy.
When you consider how much All Might was basically a god in this world, like Superman is, trying to step up and fill his shoes is impossible. Endeavour tried to surpass him in the past, and when he realised he couldn't he took it out on his family by only seeing them as a way to produce an heir that could do it.
But now All Might is gone, and his son is too young to take the spot of number one. So he has to step up, even though he knows he isn't good enough, and he knows he's just a terrible person for what he did. He's just a broken man trying his best to do what needs to be done. And that's why this fight hits so hard.
I feel like most stories would've had Endeavor be this really toxic guy, have him do this one epic fight and die, but as he's dying, his family would forgive him. So glad that's not what Horikoshi decided to go with. Endeavor was a horrible parent, but he also was the only one actively trying to catch up to All Might. He was the only one who didn't just give a sigh of relief and leave everything to All Might. He kept trying. And we see now that he's trying to become better. He's acknowledging his mistakes. Does that mean his family has to forgive him? No. Endeavor could do a million good deeds for the world and it would still be his family's right to never want to talk to him after everything he's done. But even if his family hates him, even if the public doubts him, he's still going to give it his all.
Although, it's crazy to think that Dabi casually released a creature that was so powerful it nearly took out the Number One hero. We haven't seen the League in a while. Shigaraki did say it was "their turn" now. Guess he kept his word.
As a wise dragon once said,
"What is better: to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?"
Regardless of the answer, if someone is trying to be better, I'll always support them.

When they went normal anime stuff from ep 14or 16 if u wanna say till 24
It really killed the pacing
I can't even imagine for people watching weekly how they survived that to get to those episodes
Is season 4 the black sheep of boku no hero
This is probably a top 3 episode for me from MHA. It might even be #1 for me... mostly because of the character development for Endeavor. We've been conditioned to hate Endeavor... seeing the back story... the fact that he actually does love his wife... and the lengths he's willing to go to save people. It's the old "Superman" discussion... it was easy for Superman to do what he did because he was invincible... same goes for Allmight... guys like Endeavor are actually risking their lives... putting it all on the line.
U can see now that even Endeavor can overheat, thats why he had Shoto half-half so he can go even higher temperatures and never overheat.
Endeavour making us tearing up?... Damn. The redemption is real!
If every episode was like this, then it wouldn't be special at all. It's the build up that made this special. It's not just about big fights, it's about being a hero, good and bad.
I also love that Endeavour isn't forgiven, isn't even asking for it. It's a complex issue of emotions. He's not denying what he's done, but he's living with that shame
This is my favorite episode of the whole show. I did not like season 4 that much but this episode is great.
Hawks is soooooo amazing. I love when he said "sense them fierce wings"
that emotion, spirit, determination, of the shout "Plus ultra prominence burn!!" is so epic............ 👊👊👊
When I first watched this is was 3:00am and I was screaming yelling like it was the super bowl excited that he was victorious my mother was pissed at me at the time but now she understands why I was the way that I was
Dadzawa is so wholesome and heartwarming.
this episode was fire🔥,
definitely one of my favorite,love the video keep it up guys🔥🔥🔥
imagine you're takin a dump in a bathroom in that building and then next thing you know you're being flown down to the ground with a feather. Hawks, my guy, you shoulda just let me take my chances. No way I can live being called Flying Dutchman or some shit for the rest of my life. Being rescued mid-shit is not a legacy I want to have
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO
Bro?🤣🤣
It's not up to you to judge. It's up to the family, to Endeavor's wife and Shoto.
Its hard because ultimately people should have opportunities to grow and change and possibly be forgiven, but trusting someone who's hurt you is tough. Extra tough just because of how often abusers will just pretend to have changed so they can continue abuse.
Finally we got to the end credit I was waiting for 😌
S5 has a lot to go
Endeavor went from my most hated character to MY #1 HERO, I might be biased to redemption at a but Endeavor is truly trying to change and I can't help but respect that a lot
I love the hate on Endeavour as the context isn't there yet, there's no clue whats going on around them and the argument for him being an asshole is that he's just an asshole.
It's clear too that the argument isn't two-way as how Shoto gets burned is treated as Endeavour's fault as well - and the reality is a lot lot worse.
And all the people involved in it are using a guy as a scapegoat for their pain over what happened, even Endeavour himself, allowing people to see him as the bad guy.
love your reactions i m waiting for it because this literally great last episode of season 4 . By the way Allmight right there in vestige world Yellow glowing, i also not notice when i first watch this episode
I really want Sam’s hoodie. Anybody know where I can get that?
It's weird right, endeavour's a piece of shit so why am i worrying about him. The whole endeavour redemption arc is such a brilliant bit of storytelling.
He Is comparing himself to the nomu cause he reminds him of his past self. As well as the nomu, all he cared in the past was strenght. He wanted to burn this past version of him to be a Better Person.
You shouldn't be defined by the things you did in the past. Doesn't everyone hate people who dig up things from the past to get people canceled? All I'm saying is if he's sincerely trying then try to keep an open mind.
crazy episode season 4 on fire 🔥😎 Great season i think this season 4 animation is awesome better than other season animation so far
