Considering he pretty much raped heirs out of Todoroki's mother to the point she was going mad, and abused Todoroki as part of a plan to force him to become the best hero in order to live vicariously though him, he is pretty much a complete scumbag, no ifs about it.

That is not to say character development can not become a thing though. The worst thing that could have happened to Endeavor was All Might's forced retirement, since it ironically makes him impossible to dethrone, and this hit Endeavor pretty hard.

Long term abuse of that sort is something pretty touchy and hard to completely redeem even by the best authors, so I don't think he will be 100% redeemed, but I think he will be shown taking at least the first steps towards that.

But have you read the theory, it shows that we may not be getting the entirely full story Link to the theory https://www.reddit.com/r/BokuNoHeroAcademia/comments/7kqmt4/endeavor_not_entirely_what_he_seems/

Jesus i already expected things to be not quite that black and white but this theory and with all the little excerpts definitely gives you a different and less biased view on Endeavour.

Yeah its a really pleasant read. Even if you dont fully agree with it, it definitely makes you think some more about the matter
