My Hero Academia Ch 31 Spoilers

The reason Todoroki instantly defended himself was because he felt All Might's power when he received Deku's smash.

Todoroki : "Are you All Might's illegitimate child or something?"
Deku : "It's not like that."
Todoroki : "You know about my father, right? He's the No. 2 hero. If you have something of the No. 1 hero then it's obvious that victory is indispensable for you."


All Might and Endevour start their chat but Endevour doesn't seem likely to talk.
All Might : "Your child can already use half of the power, it's a wonderful result, I wonder if it's because of your excellent training."
Unable to stomach it Endevour declares.
Endevour : That kid will someday surpass you as a hero, I raised him for that reason. He's in a rebellious age right now but he'll definitely surpass you."
Endevours says with a ghastly face.


Endevour has a strong will to rise up in the world and is an amazing hero but it's all the more reason that All Might obstructs his view.
Since he couldn't surpass him he came up with a different plan, [Individuality(Quirk) marriage].
He married Todoroki's mother who has an ice quirk in order to make him succeed with an even more powerful quirk than his.
Within Todoroki's flashback his mother kept crying.
Todoroki's mom : "I hate to look at your left hand side."
And splashed him with boiling water.


Looking back at the reason he charged at Deku without using Endevour's quirk.
Now that he has used it once he wants to completely deny that.
Kacchan who was hearing behind the wall declares war against Deku.
A-class girls who were tricked by Mineta and Kaminari into wearing cheerleader outfits.
When the recreation of the lunch break end finishes.
1-on-1 tournament between the remaining 16 people will begin!!

A tournament! that's exactly what I wanted.

Endeavor chose his wife for genetics, no wonder Todoroki would hate him.

So both parents of Todoroki are a-holes, it must really suck to be him.

His father at least. His mother just seems to be a victim.

Does a victim really burn her child with hot water? That his father is detestable is out of question, but I think his mother ain't much better.
Two different things: How in the name of All Might did Mineta and Kaminari trick the girls to change into chearleading outfits AND who do you guys think will be Dekus first opponent?

Well, it's the kind of person who becomes bitter because of her past but her son should not be the one to blame indeed... He doesn't seem to resent her at least.

Can boiling water affect him in the first place?

Exactly, Todoroki's story is really sad. His father considers him nothing but a tool(the shonen jump translator confirms Endeavor calls Todoroki "it/that") and his mother scarred his face( someone pointed out she could be the ice woman from chapter 1!). Yet he still wants to be a hero, not own his father's terms but his own.

Also, the guys tricked the girls by claiming there was a cheerleading contest. Based Mineta and Kaminari.

I'm gonna spit ball and say Deku's first opponent will be...Naval Laser!

Boku no Hero chapter 31

Spoiler

First off, Todoroki's UA File reveals some interesting facets of his quirk.
We already know that his right side commands ice, while the left side commands fire.
But if he uses his ice powers too much, he could get frostbite, so he has to rely on the heat from his right side to regulate his body temperature.

SunnyBlue has explained quite a bit of Todoroki's past. Yeah, Endeavor pretty much can't stand being overshadowed by All Might, but he's not strong enough to surpass him himself. He used his fame and fortune to get close to Todoroki's mom's family, and forced a marriage to gain her quirk.
This "quirk marriage" is apparently a thing that's happened enough for Deku to know about it. Todoroki condemns the idea, and resents how he's basically a tool for his father to surpass All Might. His mother was the one who poured boiling water on him and burned his left side.

All Might seems oblivious to this. He's asking Endeavor for advice on how to properly raise a successor, but Endeavor (obviously) treats him coldly.
That panel though...
"Sooner or later, I’ll raise him to be a hero who surpasses you... He is... A child produced for this sole purpose."
Guy's got something wrong in his head.

Todoroki thinks Deku might be All Might's illegitimate son, but Deku denies it. Todoroki still realizes that there's something between the two but decides not to pry into it further. As long as Deku has some sort of connection to All Might, Todoroki will aim to surpass him. And he'll do it without using his fire side, just to prove his father wrong.
Deku is understandably overwhelmed by Todoroki's past, but replies that he, too, cannot lose, because he doesn't want to let down all the people who have supported him for him to reach that point.

Meanwhile, Mineta and Kaminari successfully trick the girls of Class A into thinking there was a cheerleading contest.
Hagakure is the only one who takes it well and tries her best to liven things up.

The final event is a tournament-style battle! Can't wait!

Haha I love that phrase (bolded). I think deku would fight the other guy from class B (can't remember his name). I think bakugo and todoroki would go at it.

Re: Boku no Hero Academia by Horikoshi Kouhei

Spoiler

Quirk marriage to create a stronger quirk user lets the world of Hero Academia look really dark. Thanks to the translations it is clear Endeavor is in reality just a psycho and not a true hero. I wouldn't be surprised if he would attack All Might when the villain alliance attacks next time, just to defeat All Might.

That the girls would be tricked that easily is really surprising, especially Momo and Tsuyu who seem like the girls who would trust Mineta the least.

The next and final round doesn't look like a competition for a sports festival. 1 vs 1 fights until the last one standing is the winner seems unfair if you consider the participants, for example could Deku easily destroy any opponent or even kill them. That everyone will start the game the same way looks also a bit disappointing, if you remember that at the second game the winner of the first game had a huge advantage.
At last the fat kid from class B is the only one who is really scared lol.

No the other one with the dull looking face. The guy that confronted bakugo and class A before the festival. I just remembered that he isn't from class B. Right?

Oh Shinsou. Nah he's not from class b, hes from a different department. The only person from class b that made it to the next round was the little chubby kid

Yeah shinsou. I keep forgetting his name. Anyway that's who I think midoriya would fight. Maybe not first but at some point during the tournament.

I think Izuku and Bakugou will get a rematch except this time Bakugou coming on top

Re: Boku no Hero Academia by Horikoshi Kouhei

Chapter 31 was full of tension...

Spoiler

I never saw a so well made fast flashback before, everything about Todoroki, his reasons for not using his father power, his objectives and all were said in a few pages in a very good way, I don't have anything to complain about it. I think I don't have anything to comment about this part, everything's there. Endeavor is a wolf in sheep's clothing, he may be hero, but he is worse than many villains out there, doing all this only to reach the top.
Well, as I predicted, Endeavor was not that friendly. All Might really ended up asking him how to raise a successor, but he didn't say anything as expected. Well... That's it, All Might will have to learn alone. Not that Endeavor method would be of any help....
Now Midoriya has two declared rivals: Bakugou and Todoroki... Bakugou was listening to everything. What will he do after this?
Midoriya is really catching the attention of the powerful students even though he doesn't look that reliable. He has to learn how to deal with his power faster than before. The final round is coming!

The final round was quite predictable, finish everything with tournament is standard. We can even predict the final: Midoriya x Todoroki (most likely) or Midoriya x Bakugou (it would be weird since the focus is not on him right now) or, if Hoshiroki wants to copy Shokugeki, triple final: Midoriya x Todoroki x Bakugou.
I hope I am wrong because it would be cliche, something more unpredictable is always better for me.

His mom is no better. Thats really messed up what she did. I like Shoutos resolve to never use his fire powers to prove his father wrong. Its way better than because he doesn't like him. I think this motive debunks alot of peoples cliche theory saying he'll go evil. His motive is strong.

It's good that he is resolved but I don't see him winning this tournament with these limitations.

It's time to see Uraraka's new technique

Probably she got crazy after being treated bad by Endeavor. Maybe later we will know more about her story. I wouldn't blame her for now, she was forced to marry to him and who knows what he did with her afterward... I think it is clear that he doesn't like his father.
Never heard about this theory here though.

I think so too. If in the first combat he was already scaried enough to use, even more now.

I forgot! It is time to use it. Let Uraraka shine!

Never thought todoroki would go evil. If anyone becomes evil it'll be bakugo IMO.

I wonder if endeavor is somehow related to the villain alliance. I always felt it was someone close to all might that betrayed him (since the villains seemed to have vague knowledge about his weakened state) and initially I thought it might have been a traitor from yuhei staff but with all the recent info about endeavor, its doesn't seem impossible for him to be connected somehow. A bit unlikely though but he seems like a particularly dangerous person. I wonder if he solves his cases using extreme methods.
