EnjiRei

EnjiRei  is the het ship between Enji Todoroki and Rei Todoroki from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Enji bought Rei’s relatives in hopes to make a powerful child that could defeat All Might and become the number one hero. It appears Rei did not hold this against him.



When their youngest son, Shoto, turns five and develops his quirk, Enji decided that Shoto will be his successor. In order for Shoto to be his successor he decided to train him rigorously to the point of Shoto getting sick. Rei tried to defend her son from Enji arguing that “he’s only five.” Enji slaps Rei in retaliation knocking her away.

Their relationship is implied to only have gone downhill driving Rei to the point of insanity.

Rei is seen on a call with her mother telling her that she can’t live there anymore and that the children look more and more like him everyday. Shoto walks up to the doorway and called to his mother scaring her. Thinking she had to defend herself she threw a kettle of boiling water on him. Realizing her mistake she tried to cool his face down with her ice causing a larger burn mark.

Enji sends her off to a Mental Hospital because she hurt his masterpiece. Rei's condition got worse once she learned that their eldest son, Toya, had died.

Years later, she is seen with her son and daughter, Natsuo and Fuyumi, at the mental hospital. Natsuo brings up how “he” (implying Enji) is now the number one hero. Rei senses his negativity and tells him about the flower on her window sill. She had only mentioned once that she liked the flower but Enji had remembered and dropped it off for her. Not face to face of course, since Rei was still frightened of Enji and the doctors thought it best that they don't put the two in the same room together. Until she is ready to see him. She says that although he may not look like it but he is regretting the things he did to his family, and that he wants to make amends. As he had made many other visit attempts to see Rei and even though her doctor kept the two apart, for the sake of Rei's recovery, they still inform her that Enji had came over to see.

Later on in the manga, Enji reveals that he is having a house built for the rest of his family so that they could live happily without him. Due to the dream he has been having of Rei smiling and laughing with their children at the dinner table, while he is absent from it. Because of this Enji believes that the dream is telling him that if he truly wants to make Rei and their children happy, he'll need to keep his distance away from them.

Fanon
This ship has its ups and downs in the fanbase. Some fans believe that maybe the two of them still have a chance together since Enji is trying to redeem himself. While others believe Enji doesn’t deserve forgiveness and should stay alone. It is the rival ship of EndHawks. A few AUs of the ship have Rei as a former pro hero who had assisted Endeavor with her ice quirk, before they got married. There have also been a few rare occasions when fans feature the "Dabi is Toya Todoroki" theory in the ship, due to Toya being their first born child and Dabi showing signs of knowing the Todoroki family when he addressed both Shoto and Enji by their full names.

On AO3, EnjiRei is the most written ship for Rei.
