#8 Endeavor x Rei (My Hero Academia)

My Hero Academia’s Endeavor might be the superhero anime’s number-one hero, but in the Todoroki household, he’s a certifiable villain. MHA follows Izuku Midoriya, a “quirkless” boy who inherits the superpowers of a world-famous superhero, All Might, and attends UA Academy, a school for fledgling heroes. But we’re not here to talk about Deku, we’re here to admonish Endeavor, the story’s problematic hero.

Chief among Endeavor’s misdeeds is the emotional trauma he inflicts on his wife, Rei. Rei and Endeavor’s marriage was orchestrated as a result of an arranged marriage to sire a child with a powerful quirk. Things got so bad between Endeavor and his wife that Rei was hospitalized for her mental health after she threw a hot pot of water onto their son’s face, permanently scarring the boy, because of how much he resembled his father. Thankfully, season six of MHA is forcing Endeavor to reap what he sowed in prior seasons.
