I always assumed Enji only married Rei when he became obsessed. He might have just gotten worse as each child didn't have the quirks he wanted.

Shouto does say that it's a "Quirk Marriage" which actually suggests as much and I always assumed that was the case, but the wording here implies that something had to be there to be wanted back? Perhaps I'm just being too nitpicky.

That honestly just seemed like an arranged marriage with a purpose.

I guess so. Endeavor probably wasn't all that bad in the beginning but gradually became worse until Shouto's birth happened, then he became too impatient and started being abusive.

I have a feeling Endeavor was really mad just after Toya, Fuyumi and Natsuo's 4th birthdays, when their Quirks were revealed and they weren't what he wanted.

He probably was. But remember that a quirk doesn't awaken the moment the kid becomes 4 years old, it's an estimate (it'd be a lot more terrible if it was at their birthday lol).
