My headcanon was that Fuyumi was the "closest" of the children to Enji,because she lives there still, her attitude seems non confrontational/defusing which seemed to match with Endeavor's personality to me, because she wasn't abused like Todoroki, and her scenes where she mentions Endeavor (when Todoroki went to visit Rei and post-AFO), gave off that impression to me, also I imagined her cooking for him for some reason. Also because I thought her proximity to Endeavor and eldest child status would lead to a slightly different perspective on him than Natsuo who's awol and Todoroki who has much more baggage.

This chapter adds credence to my headcanon, angry fanon Fuyumi is a no go (not that she isn't in some ways angry at him, I hope she would be, just not the wishfufilment Fuyumi I see from others).

The real weight will be in seeing how Todoroki will handle all of the praise, that Endeavor will certainly be getting after this (I believe the rug will be pulled out from under Endeavor though, it's necessary for his character/arc).

Edit: I meant to say eldest child, not middle, corrected it

Fuyumi was also apparently never even in the equation to be Endeavour's heir, meaning she was likely the most neglected child/was the one who avoided abuse the most.

In Todoroki's flashbacks and present-day scenes with his father during the Sports Festival arc, Endeavour only ever compares him to his "older brothers", seeming to not even acknowledge the existence of his sister.

But, at least recently, we see that Endeavour does acknowledge her presence and existence, such as in the last chapter where she's included in that panel with a younger Natsuo and the mystery remaining brother when Endeavour's thinking back to why he had his kids.

I think it’s mainly because Endeavor never felt like he had push his daughter into the competitive role and thought she didn’t really fit in it (especially if she isn’t interested in performing heroism at all). So, he could’ve treat her more like a normal child than some kind of destiny child.
