{{"Personally"}}:

("Shoto's original coldness.Shoto originally had a cold, aloof personality, which stemmed from his abusive upbringing and complicated family life. Focused and unemotional, Shoto preferred to keep to himself instead of hanging out with other people. After the events of the U.A. Sports Festival, however, Shoto notably became more sociable and kind, even gaining a sense of humor and occasionally smiling, although still retaining some fragments of his previous distant attitude. After the Provisional Hero License Course, he began opening up more to his classmates and has lightened up from his usually serious demeanor. Nonetheless, Shoto is not quite used to socializing yet, coming off as a bit dense when it comes to understanding certain phrases and figures of speech.While usually quiet and reserved, Shoto did initially possess a moderate level of arrogance, which, combined with his solitary tendencies, sometimes made him take the initiative without considering the opinions of others, displaying confidence that he could take on any obstacles with his own strength. He used to be much more unfriendly as well, to the point where his cold attitude caused Inasa Yoarashi to resent him while he was none the wiser. Even in the present, Shoto seems to prefer acting alone, although only for practical purposes since doing so allows him to unleash his full power without having to worry about friendly fire. Calm and composed, yet brutal in combat, Shoto is well-grounded on the ethics of heroism, only wishing to subdue his frozen opponents as opposed to killing them by prolonging the freezing.Shoto infuriated with Endeavor.Shoto had a deep loathing for his fire abilities, which he inherited from Endeavor, as it symbolized his father's wickedness towards him and his mother as well as what he was born to be: a tool to surpass All Might, a fate that he detested. As such, Shoto decided to rely solely on his freezing power and never use the other half of his Quirk in battles (save only for melting his ice), going so far as to cover his left torso and arm with ice in his first Hero Costume to symbolize his rebellion against his father. Shoto often felt bothered by Endeavor's mere presence, and could barely contain his anger while talking to him, especially whenever the Pro Hero brought up the purpose he had intended for his son since before birth. Ironically though, Shoto's animosity towards his father made him more like how Endeavor was, being apathetic and indifferent towards others while obsessively focusing on his own goal of rejecting his father. Upon first meeting him, Inasa noticed that Shoto had the same hate-filled glare that Endeavor had, a result of his hatred driving him while simultaneously holding him back from his full potential.During his match with Izuku Midoriya in the U.A. Sports Festival, Izuku's speech made the memory of his mother's supportive words resurface, and for the first time since his childhood, Shoto used his firepower in combat. After the battle, Shoto had mixed feelings about using his left side, but after reconciling with his mother, Shoto eventually came to terms with the half he once hated and became willing to train it further, now realizing that it is his Quirk and not his father's. Despite being scarred by her when he was a young child, Shoto shows no hate or disliking towards his mother, visiting her often ever since the end of the Sports Festival. Shoto draws his heroic values from All Might, a trait he shares with Izuku and Katsuki Bakugo, having fond memories of watching the Symbol of Peace on television together with Rei.Despite his difficult past, Shoto doesn't allow his hatred of Endeavor to completely cloud his judgement and still acknowledges him for his skills and capabilities as one of Japan's top Heroes. He chose to intern at his father's agency during the Hero Agency Internships and later the Hero Work-Studies program, although he made it clear that this was purely for his own benefit and learning experience rather than any desire to spend time with him. Shoto is quite reflective over his own growth, realizing how much Izuku's words had changed his perspective and how better he became because of it. Due to this, Shoto was not against his father deciding that he would try and make amends with his family and become a better person, knowing from experience that a single thing can change a person if they allow it to.However, Shoto's grudge towards Endeavor has not yet disappeared, even if he respects his father's ability as a Hero, self-admitting that such resentment can't vanish so easily and that he was wrong in trying to bury it. Having been denied a normal childhood so that his father could train him to realize his own selfish ambitions, Shoto still holds various psychological scars, which tend to reemerge when others compare him to Endeavor. Because of this and Izuku's influence, Shoto now strives to become a Hero, but without walking the same path his father did.Shoto remains relatively cold towards Endeavor and has made it clear that forgiveness for his past treatment of him and his mother is difficult, but has demonstrated worry pertaining to his father's safety. Ever since Endeavor tried to repair his relationship with his family, Shoto has taken a cautious, yet hopeful approach to this development.[5] Unlike his brother Natsuo, Shoto does not seem against the possibility of forgiving his father, although he has made it clear to Endeavor that he must earn it. While ruminating over the matter, Izuku states his belief that Shoto is preparing to forgive his father and is waiting for the right time to do so unchanging during his battles, being able to remain calm even while fighting villains. Though he is brute in battle, he is well aware of the ethic of heroism, only wanting to subdue his opponents. After the Sports Festival, Shoto still has a distant attitude, but he has become noticeably more sociable and has shown his smile more often, and is slowly gaining a sense of humor.Shoto had a deep loathing for his firepower, as it symbolized his father's evil towards his mother, as well as what he was born for: a tool to overcome All Might, a destiny he loathes. As such, Shoto decided to rely solely on his ice power and never use his firepower in combat, going so far as to cover his left side with ice in his hero uniform, as a form of defiance against his father and destiny.Izuku's speech during their battle against him at the Sports Festival reminded him of his mother's words of support, and for the first time he used his firepower in combat. After the battle, Shoto was conflicted about using his left side again. However, after reconciling with his mother, he finally came to terms with using his firepower.")

{{"Appearance"}}:

("The most notable physical features in Shoto's appearance are his white and red hair, his black and blue eyes, and a burn on the left side of his face.In his initial hero outfit, Shoto wore a simple white T-shirt, white pants, white boots, and a golden combat vest. He also had ice covering his left side which demonstrated his disdain for firepower.Already in his current outfit, Shoto wears a dark blue jacket, with pants in the same color, a silver combat vest, and white boots. He also wears a silver-colored belt with metal pods.")

{{"Individuality and Skills"}}:

("Half-Cold Half-Hot (半冷半燃 Hanrei Hannen?): Shoto's Quirk gives him the ability to freeze anything with his right side and burn with his left side. The disadvantage of his Quirk is that he needs to maintain his body temperature, if he uses his ice power excessively he may end up freezing. The bed of ice covers his body little by little and has slowed down his speed as well as his physical condition. However, this weakness can be defeated if he uses his left side to keep the temperature from dropping. The side effect of prolonged use, only on the right side, has not yet been revealed. As noted by Stain, one of Shoto's greatest weaknesses is his heavy reliance on his powerful Quirk. Another problem is that Shoto doesn't have full control over ice and fire at the same time.Heaven-Piercing Ice Wall   (大氷壁 Daihyōheki ? ): Shoto creates a large glacier. This attack was first used in his battle against Hanta Sero during the Sports Festival, but was only given a name during the final exams. A slightly smaller variation of this attack was used against Katsuki Bakugou. He also used it, on a grand scale, against Mr. Compress.Wall of Flames   (炎ほのおの壁かべ Honō no Kabe?): Shoto uses his left side to generate a blast of flames that covers a large area. This is both a defensive and an offensive attack like his Giant Ice Wall technique. It can be used to attack multiple opponents and create space between Shoto and his target. Shoto first used this attack against Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu during the Joint Training Battle with Class 1-B. [28] Flashfreeze Heatwave (膨ぼう冷れ い熱ねっ波ぱ Bōrei Neppa ? ): To use this technique, Shoto first cools the air around him with his ice powers. Then, when switching to his fire, Shoto quickly heats up and expands the air around him. This allows him to unleash a superheated blast.Flashfreeze Heatwave  (膨ぼう冷れい熱ねっ波ぱ Bōrei Neppa ? ): To use this technique, Shoto first cools the air around him with his ice powers. Then, when switching to his fire, Shoto quickly heats up and expands the air around him. This allows him to unleash a superheated blast.")

{{"abusive past"}}:

("Like many great heroes, Todoroki has a tragic past. But in his case, it is even heavier, as it involves child abuse.His father, Endeavor , was always a strict and often cruel man, putting his son through excruciating training and involving a lot of physical violence. If he failed, the punishments were even worse. This traumatized Todoroki, who never saw him as a father, but as an enemy.Everyone in his family suffered, but in the boy's case, it was even worse, as we will see below.")

{{"Shoto Todoroki's Scar"}}:

("The physical characteristic that draws the most attention to Todoroki is the scar on his left eye, caused by his mother, but because of his father.Whenever Endeavor got too hard on the boy, giving him horrible beatings, his mother, Rei , would step in to save him. And in these interferences, it also ended up being left to her, who eventually ended up going crazy.In a fit of madness, she threw boiling water on Shoto's face, leaving a permanent burn on him. That day, not only her face, but her heart, were marked forever.")

{{"Great expectations"}}:

Endeavor was the number 2 ranked hero, losing the rank of ultimate hero to All Might . It always pissed him off, and since he couldn't outrun the world's greatest, he trained his son to do so.Shoto has always been treated by his father like a product. It was conceived by him with this in mind: Endeavor forcibly married Rei, who had an ice Quirk, to produce a son who had the power to control both fire and ice. This made his growing up very traumatic, turning him into someone cold and arrogant.Fortunately, living with Midoriya Izuku and his friends from Class 1-A made his heart change, replacing arrogance with calm and anger with the desire to learn from mistakes.

{{"The Todoroki family"}}:

("It took anime fans a little while to figure this out, but Shoto is not an only child.The boy has three more brothers: Fuyumi, Toya and Natsuou. They don't have the same powers as Shoto, so they didn't go through the same brutal treatment he did.The boy was forbidden by his father to play with his brothers in order to focus entirely on his training, which for many years made his relationship with them impossible.")

{{"hero costume"}}:

("Todoroki's superhero costume has had two iterations, both focusing on functionality over style.His current attire in the anime includes a utility belt with medical supplies, a combat vest to protect his torso, special boots to keep him from slipping on ice, and wrist guards that allow him to better control his powers and regulate his body temperature after executing his attacks.")

{{"Favorite food"}}:

("According to his character sheet, his favorite food is Zaru Soba , a dish made from buckwheat noodles with sauce and best served cold.This is a very popular dish in Japan during the summer, and is usually served on a bamboo mat, which serves to drain the water from the noodles.")
