Yanno... there was this post on tumblr the other day, and somehow... it vexed me a lot like the way normal mundane stuff vexes Asakura. Because the post tried to reason--no, generalize how people interpret or defend their character, yet using the completely wrong comparison.
Said post was...
"
If tumblr had existed back during the time 555 had aired, would people have defended Kusaka Masato the way people now defended Micchi?"
Such generalization... made me laugh.
Well, I don't speak for the other people who liked and defended Micchi til now, but I'll state my own opinions here. Because yes, I love Micchi and despite the things he'd done till now and the wrong choices he took, I want him to get a chance to redeem himself. And seriously, to compare Micchi and Kusaka is really off. Yes, both of them had similar modus operandi; in terms about their love interest (Mari/Mai) and the whole back-stabbing thing. But so far,
that is as far as similarities went.
( Unpopular Opinions )On that note as well, I hadn't want Sid to die either. But it's already amazing that Urobutcher hadn't killed a lot of the named characters already so I reluctantly accepted him sacrificing Sid. It's been a while anyway since Hase was killed (Yuuya too) so I'll give Urobutcher a break. Death of uncountable Yggdrasill employees do not count in this statistics since they weren't named.
