People might say how VR Endou is out of character, how him being a bad father wouldn't be canon, and they're not really wrong but...
You know who isn't out of character? You know who's characterization was so good I almost thought I was a fake fan for not even thinking about that option?
KIDOU. AND HIM HAVING AN ADOPTED SON. Kidou having a kid at all is already really in character because of his kindess and ability to care for others (and as a big brother).
NOT ONLY THAT but supporting Alice by telling him not to obsess over defeats, and instead learn from them. He's grown now, and is finally over his own "winning" obsession back in Teikoku academy. Guys I really love Kidou Yuuto
