Did endeavour really cry in the manga when he apologized to touya and the entire todofam?
No, he didn't. It's an anime only addition to make him more sympathetic.
It's very clear that the entire title change was driven by a pro-Endeavor agenda. Someone up high in Bones really wanted to say that it's everyone's "I'M HERE" moment rather than Todoroki Shoto Rising.
When the entire point is that the Todoroki family climax is not only a tragedy, but the way Enji and Rei are scrambling last minute everyone outside also at danger.
Shoto is the only one who can prevent the mass annihilation, because HE WAS THERE - there for Rei to save her from the hospital, there for Iida to save him from Stain and inspire him to become the kind of person who'll carry him at transonic speeds, there to fight Toya in Enji's place, there to train Phosphor so he could counter Touya without harming him.
It's Shoto's "I'M HERE" as he becomes a hero to reassure strangers and bring salvation to the family. It's everything he worked for coming together - that's why it is his RISING.
But Bones management tried to take it away from him and make it a watered down "everyone is here, everyone is cool" kind of moment and many fans sadly bought it.
But I think the animation team did a respectable job in 10 mins to try to make sense of the story as much as they could.
"it's cool it's just PR this is all fake it's all casual idgaf" <- oh i'm sure
very fun fic & i have several sketches
if you hate touya you will die and go to hell
This allusion to Icarus isn't even trying to be subtle. This was the first time Hawks' wings were depicted in their full glory, and it came with the overbearing light of the spotlights shining down on the base of his wings.
It's a neon flashing light to include imagery like this for Hawks' introduction. The message is clear: this character is an Icarus who will fall after his wings melt from flying too high, straight into the sun.
There's an interesting juxtaposition between Hawks' words and how he appears in this arc. He speaks as if he wants to take it easy while being drawn like a man with ambitions that will eventually burn him to the ground.
Run and Go Au Todosiblings!!!
