Overview
The Todoroki Family is not a happy, healthy, and loving family, but a dysfunctional, abusive, unloving, forced. and unhappy one from the start.

The biggest conflict of the family originates from Enji's treatment towards the others, in particular Toya and Shoto. Ever since a young age, Enji has dedicating himself to the inhuman process of birthing children and subsequently putting them through rigorous training so that they may unlock their Quirk and master it with the intent of raising someone that could eventually surpass All Might. As a result, Enji's children, especially Shoto, have grown resentful of him.

Shoto is ashamed of his fate as Endeavor's eventual successor and started rejecting all aspects of himself that tied him to his father, namely the fire half of his Quirk. It took a confrontation between Shoto himself and Izuku Midoriya for the former to accept his power as it was.

Aside from his poor treatment of Shoto, Enji treats his other children less so, but still no better. He doesn't give them the harsh training that Shoto goes through or directly mistreat them frequently like how he also mistreated his wife, but he doesn't fulfill their emotional needs as an ideal father, neglecting them for his own goals, and referring to Shoto's brothers as 'things' and regarding them as failures. This neglect is what drove his eldest son, Toya, to insanity, frantically training and yearning for his approval and acknowledgement which would come at the cost of his well-being and eventually almost his life.

Eventually, Enji is severely ashamed of the things he's ever done to his family and the lengths his pride has gotten him after getting what he wants. It nearly led to the death of his eldest child and his descent into villainy, it shattered the mental well-being of his wife, and it put ridiculous amounts of pressure on Shoto since his early childhood, threatening his welfare, growth, and causing him to become bitter and aloof to others. Natsuo hates Enji and has not forgiven him for the treatment he gave them all those years. Fuyumi has the best relationship with her father out of all the children and wishes for a normal, well-adjusted family. Shoto himself now has a mixed opinion on Enji, thinking highly of his hero work, but poorly of him as a parental figure.

In the end, Enji does not expect to be ever forgiven by his children and wife but does yearn to make up for all of the wrongdoings he has ever caused to them.

History
Enji Todoroki used his power and influence to force a marriage with the Himura family to marry their daughter, Rei. The purpose of this marriage was an attempt by Enji to conceive and raise a child with a powerful Quirk, one that possessed his fire and her ice, in order to surpass All Might. The marriage between the two was an unloving one and only done for Enji's personal desires. Despite this, the relationship wasn't a complete wash as Enji still paid attention and would listen to Rei, like regarding what flowers she likes.

The family was relatively normal at first. While their first child, Toya, did not possess the dual fire-and-ice ability he desired, he did have a fire Quirk that was even greater than Enji's, so when their second child, Fuyumi, only had the ice Quirk, he was happily content to train Toya to become his successor. However, everything changed upon the discovery that while Toya inherited his father's fire, he also inherited his mother's resistance to ice, meaning he was sensitive to fire and started to receive permanent burns from his own fire.

In his attempt to protect Toya, Enji ceased their training, which infuriated the boy who refused to give up. Still with his desire to raise a successor for All Might obsessing over him, he forced Rei into reluctantly having more children which he believed would force Toya to stop. The third child, Natsuo, only had the ice Quirk just like Fuyumi, however the fourth child, Shoto, finally possessed the fire and ice Quirk Enji wanted.

By the time Shoto was five, Enji trained him to become a Hero through harsh and detestable means. Shoto had little interaction with his older siblings during his childhood, as they had been abandoned by him and forced on their own, with Toya in particular barred from any interaction due to an incident where he erratically tried to attack a baby Shoto. Rei had tried to prevent Enji from making Shoto go through his intense training, but he refused to listen and demanded she stayed out of it.

Rei was also a victim of Enji's abuse, to the point she started becoming mentally unstable. Meanwhile, Toya continued his training secretly at Sekoto Peak, raising his fire power to the point that it turned blue, while Endeavor furiously lashed out at the entire family upon learning of this. All of this stress bubbled up within Rei until she snapped one day when she saw Shoto's left side which reminded her of Enji and threw boiling water over him. After this incident, Enji had her admitted to a mental hospital.

Some time after that, Toya waited for Enji to come to Sekoto Peak and watch him train, but because he didn't, he lost control of his Quirk. His flames ignited so intensely that they engulfed his body and lit the surrounding forest on fire. He apparently died during the incident, with no traces of his body being found except for a small piece of his jawbone.

Over the course of the years, Shoto continued training while also hating his father before applying into U.A. High School. Shoto later forgave his mother for her burning him as a child and now regularly visits her, showing they have reconciled.

It appears after All Might's retirement, Enji has slowly moved past his previous behavior as he thanked All Might for bringing his son to him. He later promised Shoto that he would become a better man, and tries to extend this effort to the rest of his family as well.

Natsuo and Fuyumi have visited their mother and are shown to be on good terms with her. Natsuo mentions that he hardly remembers his father, showing Enji didn't put effort into raising his elder children. Rei reveals to her two children that Enji secretly visits her but they haven't met face to face.

Natsuo blames Enji for causing Toya's supposed death and is adamant on not forgiving him despite Fuyumi's efforts to reconcile the family.

Their family is severely damaged when it's revealed that the eldest son, Toya, had been alive all along and was in fact Dabi, a mass murderer and member of the League of Villains. Furthermore, Enji's past and the trauma the Todoroki family endured is exposed to the public. All the members of the family are deeply shocked and saddened, with Enji being hit the hardest with sadness and guilt, sincerely apologizing to all of his family with tears flowing down his face. However, after recounting their past mistakes, especially when it came to Toya, the rest of the family have decided to take responsibility for what happened to him and are now willing to help Enji in stopping Dabi.
