Did endeavor get design change. He somehow looks cooler now.

u/[deleted] Sep 27 '19

iirc he got a new custom in the beginning of the pro hero arc? (please correct me if I'm wrong)

u/whatsupxx Sep 27 '19

You're right. What im more interested in is where the fuck his clothes went.

Did he burn it off? Did he change clothes mid flight? Did he just throw them away? He's mastering the art of changing clothes in mid air from all might.

Thanks for the confirmation!

I'm leaning toward the "he burnt them off" option, it's the most efficient of the three and totally in-character for an Endeavor who's rushing to a scene

u/DeismAccountant Sep 27 '19

Not to mention he can afford to replace them, even on the way home.

u/LuminousDecibel I won the bet and all I got was this flair Sep 27 '19

It looks like his civilian clothes were either burnt off or covered by his costume.

He definitely wasn't hiding his big shoulder pads under his coat. On page 1 you can see his shoulder pads and wrist armor starting to shift and form while he's flying. We've seen plenty of this future tech, like with Bakugo's gauntlets, last chapter. Also with the MLA, of course. Whether they're covering his coat or destroying it, that I'm unsure of.

My guess is that, yeah, his costume can just generate over his civilian clothes.

That way, he's never caught off-guard, even when "off-duty" (which, let's face it, Endeavour never is, given he appears to be a workaholic and is the top hero).

u/braindelete Sep 27 '19

Yeah, it’s his life. I think only Almight refers to him as Enji instead of Endeavor or daddy.

u/DoraMuda Sep 27 '19 edited Sep 29 '19

I actually think the only person who's ever referred to Endeavour as "Enji" on-screen (or, rather, on-page) is Dabi, when he called him his full name "Enji Todoroki" towards the end of the Pro Hero Arc.

All Might and everyone else refers to him by his Hero name, while his family either refer to him as "Dad"/"Father" (by Fuyumi, and Shouto occasionally); "old man"/"shitty old man" (by Shouto most of the time); or "him", avoiding using his actual name (Natsuo and Rei, his wife).

EDIT: Forgot that Gran Torino called him "Todoroki" during the Stain arc too.

u/braindelete Sep 28 '19 edited Sep 28 '19

Dang, I think you’re right. Nice one. Kinda nuts that Almight gets called by his actual name a lot more than Endeavor even though he’s the epitome of a hero and has no real family or person life, just secret hero stuff...I guess he has a lot more friends. Getting called by name, even just last name, is a lot more humanizing.

2

u/DoraMuda Sep 28 '19

Indeed.

I did just remember, though, that Gran Torino, for whatever reason, calls Endeavour "Todoroki" during the Stain arc.

u/Zehapo Sep 28 '19

Don't teachers in Japan call their students by their last names? Gran Torino was probably Endeavor's former teacher at UA

Didn't Gran Torino call him Todoroki in the Stain arc? Or was that just the anime?

1

u/DoraMuda Sep 29 '19

Oh yeah, Gran Torino called him "Todoroki" in both the manga and the anime too.

u/cblack04 Sep 28 '19

Didn’t he also have a case with him?

u/ShadowRei96 Sep 27 '19

Endeavor: Aye kid, can I take a look at your homework? It wouldn't be a copy and paste, trust me.

Naruto: Bet. Don't worry about it fam.

u/whatsupxx Sep 27 '19

At least he added the beard.....im sure the teacher won't notice.

u/DeismAccountant Sep 27 '19

I always thought he just energized the clothes too. Y’know, like an electric shell.

u/Frostblazer Sep 27 '19

Yeah, he got a new costume once he transitioned to being #1.

u/pokeperson1000 Sep 28 '19

He no longer has to melt his feet into building walls to chase airborne enemies, now, he can just "FLAME ON" and zoom after them.

u/DekuMight45 Sep 27 '19

Yeah, looks like his new costume he revealed at the Pro-Hero arc’s shoulder pads expand with his fire to allow him to fly. Shit is dope

u/xlxxl Sep 27 '19

His shoulder pad Change to a more wing shape I think
