Synopsis
Pro Hero Arc
Natsuo and Fuyumi Todoroki visit their mother in the hospital. He tells his mother that Endeavor was promoted to No. 1 and that he still cannot forgive his father for how Enji treated the family. He is surprised when his mother mentions the latter visits her and left her flower. He is told of his father is dealing with an internal problem.[3]
While leaving the asylum with Fuyumi, the siblings watched a news report of their father dealing with a villain attack. He was horrified to watch as his father was overwhelmed by a villain's attack.[4]
Natsuo continued to watch the broadcast wondering why Endeavor continued fighting. He frantically stated that he should just give up and retreat like he did with the children he had. Fuyumi told him their father is the person who is too stubborn to ever do so.[4]
At his family home, Natsuo eats dinner with his sister and brother Shoto before their father arrives. Seeing him, Natsuo glares at him, especially at his scar, before Fuyumi tells them to at least put in the effort to talk. However, Natsuo gets up to leave as Enji tells Natsuo to speak up and the latter confronts his father on everything he's done, even blaming him for what happened to his brother Toya. Natsuo continues his rant about not knowing much about his brother Shoto because of him and ending it by saying he's incapable of change, only to be surprised by Enji stating he will face his past to atone before Natsuo leaves.[5]
Endeavor Agency Arc

Natsuo is being present at the dinner, Fuyumi held for Shoto and company. When Izuku Midoriya praises the food Fuyumi made, Natsuo says that Fuyumi has been doing all the cooking ever since their maid hurt her back and retired. Fuyumi then revealed that Natsuo also did some cooking as well, which surprised Shoto. Though Natsuo then states that since he over-seasoned the food, Endeavor made him stop, though Endeavor apologizes for not knowing prior.
"you are waiting for the right moment to forgive him"
After Natsuo finishes, he quickly leaves, still unable to sit near his father. While the others were cleaning up, Izuku asks Katsuki if he knew about Shoto's past, to which he reveals he was listening when the two of them were talking during the Sports Festival. While getting ready to leave, Natsuo overheard Izuku tell Shoto that he feels he's getting ready to forgive Endeavor, as he feels that if Shoto truly hated him, it would be fine to not forgive him, but Izuku voices his thoughts on that Shoto is a very kind person waiting for the right moment.[6]
