My take on the BNHA fandom.

Endeavor: A Tragic Hero

         “A tragic hero is someone who is virtuous, although flawed, who commits, knowingly, or unknowingly, an injury or great wrong that will ultimately lead to his or her misfortune” Aristotle. 

  In this moment Endeavor went from being regarded as sociopathic or at least a highly immoral character to a tragic hero. The Hero Academia audience went from scorning Endeavor to pity him. Some may have problems calling Endeavor virtuous or a Hero, and considering his past actions its valid criticism. However Endeavor was viewed as #2 Hero so he must have done great good to be in that spot. From what we’ve seen to the public he behaves like a typical hero. 

  Endeavor wants to be a Hero through his own merits. Its not clear why Endeavor wants to be #1 considering he is wealthy, famous, & powerful. Thus, its assumed he wants it for no other reason than pride. The fact that he couldn’t beat All Might was a blow to his pride, which caused him to corrupt his heroic principles. Endeavor refused to abandon his goal of being the #1 Hero even if it meant he had to create the next one. 

 Aristotle lists 4 factors in a tragic hero in which Endeavor has all: 

Hubris: Excessive Pride

Hamartia: A flaw or error in judgment 

Peripeteia: A reversal of fortune 

Anagnorisis: Recognition that the reversal was caused by the hero’s own actions 

 Hubris: Endeavor’s entire character omits excessive pride down to the design. The way he looks, postures, moves, speaks is all prideful. Endeavor is built like a greek statue. Endeavor keeping his quirk on is prideful. The Hero has fire all over in particular around his face. The fire acts as the Hero’s mask always on to make sure there is no Enji only Endeavor. The fact his quirk is fire fits his personality well. Fire attracts attention and it has a duality to it. Fire can be a sense of comfort or dangerous consuming everything in its path. Endeavor may bring comfort to society but to his family he is very damaging. The mere fact that Endeavor believes his offspring should be #1 shows excessive pride. 

Hamartia: Endeavors flaw in judgment is envy of All Might. Envy is born when pride is wounded. Once Endeavor realized he could never close the cosmic gap between them it was a direct hit to pride. Rather than accept this Endeavor chose to give into envy. Endeavor acted out a heinous plan by creating an offspring to accomplish his broken dream. Envy taunted Endeavor in doubts sprouting a wicked plan. Endeavor created multiple children abusing them in hopes of finding one strong enough. From Endeavors perspective he saw the abuse as a sacrifice for the greater good. Endeavor believed he was training a hero stronger than All Might who could protect society to a degree unimaginable. So, regardless of abuse to Endeavor its excusable since overall society would greatly benefit. 

Peripeteia: By Endeavor & his son being robbed of the #1 hero spot through merit was a reversal of fortune. Endeavor believes being the best means absolutely nothing unless it comes with a piece of mind that you actually are the best. By All Might having to retire Endeavor’s dreams felt worthless. By Endeavor coming to terms with this we are now seeing the atonement of his actions (192 BNHA). 

Anagnorisis: During the rescue mission Endeavor has a flashback and its the first time we see his humanity. Witnessing Endeavors dreams evaporate humanized him. Endeavor is shown stripped of the flames surrounding face showing the broken man underneath. Underneath his pride is a wounded heart with a broken dream. For Endeavors ambitions he was willing to pay any price, but once he got a taste of victory its not how he wanted it. The price he paid wasn’t worth it in the end. 

“A man does not become a hero until he sees the root of his downfall” Aristotle
