Disclaimer: These are casual translation by yours truly, an amateur translator, so take them with a grain of salt. I thought the scanlations were getting too MTL quality (no offense meant!) so I started reading the raws and translating them on my own starting with C89 (near the end of World 2/Apocalypse arc). Putting them here for archive purposes in case anyone wants to read them, lol. Picture is latest banner promo image on the manhua site yay, Wang Yi looks so villainous~

Hello! Hope you had a good day. I have a question regarding Torino, and I want to hear your thoughts about it. Why do you think Torino dismissed Toshinori's attempts to reach out to Tomura after it was revealed to him he was Shimura Tenko, Nana's grandson? I'm just curious about your thoughts about it.
This is so hard to answer. I keep drafting ‘in this essay I will’ paragraphs and then deleting them. I’m gonna bullet-point it. (There are... a lot of rhetorical questions below the read-more.)
tl;dr: Torino is taking responsibility for his mistake, because he assumes the chain of events leading to Shigaraki Tomura are connected to his and Nana’s decision to foster Kotarou.
“If you think he’s anything less than a villain, no good can come of it. No matter who his parents are, he’s still a dangerous criminal. [...] Even if you’re no longer the Symbol of Peace… All Might is still with us” (C95).
Gran Torino is old enough to have been an adult before the All Might era. He at least has a vague memory of how bad it used to be; he’s already made predictions on how worse it will get, with the League of Villains escaping (nominally) unharmed and Stain’s ideology being disseminated ALONG WITH the MLA’s.
Forgive the ringleader? Because he’s Nana’s grandson? Because of sentiment? What do you risk sacrificing, in an attempt to salvage this relationship? Do you martyr yourself, in spite of publicly surviving All for One’s parting shot?
For better or for worse, Gran Torino already has his eye on the endgame. Someone’s going to die in order to finish this AFO/OFA fight. It won’t be Toshinori. It shouldn’t be Izuku either. It’s cold-blooded, but I think Sorahiko was prepped for a killshot the instant he calculated the ramifications of letting Shigaraki go.
/everything above is what I drew from the quote; everything below is from the reading of a stan/
HE’S SO GUILTY. HE’S SO GUILTY!!!
Let me be clear: Gran Torino is a hypocrite, and he’s an old man who says he’s looking at the big picture, but is in fact tied to this story because he is irrevocably, unflinchingly attached to Shimura and her legacy.
What does it mean for Sorahiko, that he watched Nana give Kotarou away; that he witnessed this tragedy, even supported it (“The decision we made…” C281), because he knew that they weren’t enough to keep Kotarou safe?
What does it mean for Sorahiko, that he knew he wasn’t enough to keep Toshinori safe in Japan? Brutal, hellish, objectively abusive training montage aside - the fact is in the All Might: Rising OVA. He cannot finish the job, so he sends Toshinori to the States.
(Nana is a mother twice-over, for a son she gave up and a son she couldn’t claim; what does this make Sorahiko?)
When Toshinori - no longer invulnerable and guilt-ridden - begins his train of thought, “I have to find Shigaraki… I’ll find him and…”
FIND HIM AND WHAT, TORINO MUST HAVE THOUGHT FRANTICALLY. FURIOUSLY. DESPAIRINGLY.
Toshinori may have been instructed to leave Kotarou alone, but he’s not responsible for this situation. He’s not responsible for fixing it. Toshinori’s done the job for forty years, and now he has a successor of his own, one he should raise right - one who’s already proven to be quite the spiritual successor of Shimura’s, too.
Gran Torino will finish the job. He’s going to finish the job. (He is going to fail so, so bad because in the end, he was never capable of it.)
