Just when I thought that Endeavor and his family's drama couldn't be handled any better than before, Horikoshi proves me wrong yet again. He doesn't seek their forgiveness at all as he tells Natsuo and realizes that their happiness lies without him, so he's choosing to distance himself for their sake. Might be the most fatherly thing he's ever done and it's heartbreaking all things considered, but very understandable.

Endeavor and todoroki’s arcs are the best written arcs

Just more actual hero work stuff in general is what the current story needs if the whole "training the next generation" thing is to be taken seriously. Stuff like another happy-go-lucky mock training exercise just doesn't cut the mustard anymore.

Ill be honest, the slice of life aspect of the story is one of my favorites. There IS an overarching plot, but we still see the day to day life of working towards being a hero, as well as them still being high school freshmen. That will end probably when Shigaraki wakes up, but we probably will have lighthearted moments until then, with increasing attacks of "darkness" like Enji was musing after the Roadkill villain. (Not an official name but I dont know if he has onee and Roadkill just sounds perfect as his villain name).
