Hero Shoto

Overview

Todoroki Shoto is from the popular animated series My Hero Academia who was a student in Class 1-A at U.A Highschool where one can become a superhero. He is the youngest and only child of number two hero Endeavor to inherit the combination of quirks fire and ice, called Half-Cold Half-Hot. In the beginning he rejected his flames due to his father’s abuse towards his mother who ended up in a hospital for years. However, after a tournament fight with the main protagonist Midoriya Shoto accepted his other side.

Shoto’s appearance can be recognized by his split red and white hair and heterochromia eyes. Noticeably, he has a scar on the left side of his face after his mother threw boiling water on his face since he reminded her of his father. His personality can be described as aloof and often dead pan, but during the show you can see how he branches out to befriend others.

Despite having a rough childhood Shoto aspired to be a hero after witnessing the number one hero All Might save numerous lives on live television. He also wanted to simply reject his father’s wishes of becoming a great hero to surpass All Might without using his fire powers but eventually he finds his own reasons to become a hero.
