The fact that in this scene he yells this is the reason he 'created Shouto,' effectively declaring on camera that he had a child for the purpose of creating an ideal Quirk hybridization to succeed him, and nobody had anything to say about that baffles the mind.
And everybody heard it because the guy is loud as hell and Present Mic awkwardly reacted to what he said.
And I think this might be the biggest tell in the ‘shut your eyes, shut your mouth, the Pros can do no wrong’ corruption narrative that had so much potential for exploration in the plot.
But since there wasn't much in the way of exploration, I'll just console myself with the headcanon this was the moment that set Dabi off more than Stain's final stand. I like to imagine he was drinking at a bar and watching the UA Sports Festival out of morbid curiosity to see where his brother was at, and then choked on his drink when Endeavor started yelling this freakishly controversial statement.
"Fucking yells it in front of everyone? Did anyone else think that was strange?!"
Cue the war path.
Seriously, I think about this scene all the time. Because wtf??? 😬
