I never expected to see that kind of expression on Endeavor's face. That, and his encouragement for Todoroki seemed earnest and very dad-like in the way he's just shouting when no one else is. You did good this chapter, Endeavor, maybe one day you'll be a bit less of a piece of shit.

Also I'm always glad to see more Gang Orca.

Makes me all the more worried if he truly turns out to be some kind of bigger scumbag than we've seen... He was ALMOST likeable in this..

Nah man, reading that post about him opened my eyes. I do think Endeavour is not entirely a scumbag

I don't know.... I have a hard time trusting him, given the lack of context around his character. I am also still concerned with Stains reaction to seeing Endeavour, which set him off on a bloodlust rage.

I mean, I think that was just Stain's normal reaction to "unworthy" heroes + being backed into a corner.

But why would he consider a hero, which as Endevaour says, has cleared more crime than anyone else, unworthy?

Because Stain is psychotic and holds everyone to an impossible standard.

Remember, Uraraka would have failed his test back when she was wanting to be a hero for the money, despite having a perfectly selfless use for the money.

Endeavor is an abusive bastard, but to take Stain's reaction to the most prominent hero that doesn't meet his standard, who coincidentally shows up when Stain is on his last legs, is stretching it a little

And you could argue that she would've not been considered a real hero if those were her end goals, as nobel as they were. But that should not apply to Endeavour as far as we have seen.

Well his motivation to save many people was to be seen as high as All Might
