History Recap / MyHeroAcademiaS6E16TheHellishTodorokiFamilyPart2

* FlashbackEpisode: The first half reveals Keigo Takami's childhood before he became known as Hawks. [[DarkAndTroubledPast It's not a pretty sight, thanks to his abusive father and broken home.]] However, he soon desires to become a Hero after being inspried by Endeavor.

* YouAreTooLate: An group of angry citizens lash out at Pro Hero Wash for arriving to the wreckage of a neighborhood, shortly after a battle between a restaurant staff and the Cider House gang; the latter recently broken out of prison. Wash brushes off this and tends to the people caught in the crossfire.

* AbusiveParents: Keigo/Hawks' father is said to have been a petty thief on the run, after killing someone, and relied on the boy's mother for gigs and a means to escape. Keigo had to endure years of his abuse and paranoia, with the former frequently beating him up, and his mom's neglect, before Endeavor apprehended the father. His mom took him away to the streets and begged him to make money by any means necessary before he finally asked the authorities for help instead.
* BrokenPedestal: Best Jeanist catches a glimpse of a handful of people within the hopeful crowds giving a DeathGlare to him, as if they are no longer happy to still have Heroes left to help them. Everything, from the news about the Nomus to multiple Villains breaking out, have severely damaged their faith in Heroes, and it's only going to get worse.

* DramaticIrony: Despite becoming a hero, he never had a chance to save his mother. Because he had to hide his real name from the public, he realized he had turned his back on his parents.

** Re-Destro of the MLA/PLF believes in "society without order" and "true liberation", wanting for the public to use Meta Abilities/Quirks however they want. Many places are now in chaos and disarray thanks Villains who are wreaking havoc after being freed from prison, and their victims who are using their Quirks to defend themselves.
** Stain wanted to cull the country of "False Heroes"; specifically, those who pursue fame over virtue. Many ''many'' Heroes, new and old, and their agencies have begun leaving en masse under public scrutiny or disillusion. Others are determined to carry on, as if they are being tested to prove their worth of the title of "Hero".

* MoodWhiplash: Endeavor's "SHOTO!" RunningGag breaks the gloom of his ManlyTears scene, if only briefly.
* NeverTrustATitle: The episode focuses more on Hawks' past and the current state of Japan. The Todoroki's don't meet up with Endeavor until the end of the episode.

* BrokenTears: The weight of the aftermath from the Jaku City battle, as well as the knowledge that is eldest son Toya is alive but has become the sinister Villain Dabi, causes Endeavor to completely break down in tears.

* CagedBirdMetaphor: His broken home was treated as this as a kid, with him sneaking out occasionally, before the Hero Safety Commission took him in. In present time, with his mother disappearing, and the Safety Commission in shambles, Hawks feels like there is no one or nothing left to order him around or tie him down, allowing him to do as he pleases and deal with any loose ends before assisting Endeavor. Makes sense for someone with wings.

** Wracked with guilt, a recovering Enji Todoroki internally declares the Hero Endeavor is dead. His family aren't letting him go yet.
* TheReveal:
** Hawks learned exactly how Dabi knew his real name: the Villain sent goons to force the Hero's mother to spill the information. She soon left the household in guilt, not wanting to cause anymore trouble for her son.
** It turns out that the body Hawks showed Dabi was in fact the ''real'' Best Jeanist. They anticipated that the Villain wouldn't fall for a cheap decoy, and so Jeanist undergone a medical procedure which put him in a "death-like" state, based on how the Nomus were set up. Hawks then carried the No. 3 Hero to show that he "killed" him as a final test to join the PLF. They then put the Pro in a tank as a future plan to make him a Nomu. Though risky, Hawks snuck him out sometime before the raids began.
