Well shit,seeing how Kunishige didnt want to tell him anything regarding Akemura guess it would make sense he wouldn't know. The first time we learn he was his uncle was when Yura was talking to Akemura himself. Asked Yura if he was behind his brother in laws death.Hold on MC didnt know thats his uncle? I dont even remember when we were told but I felt like that was common knowledge
Its kinda funny how his first thought isnt "I wonder what else they hid/lied about" no its "Cant believe im related to mecha hitler damn"
Yeah I have no idea what the goal would be after the destruction of the swordsAs much as I love this series, I hope it ends after defeating the sword master with a great ending instead of dragging for 500 chapters and another arc. Maybe do another series in the same universe for example.
Priority?Everyone has a better looking sword than Chihiro ffs
Also sword Hitler talks a big game, but he had his chance to take out the Rakuzaichi crowd after the war, he decided instead to murder children.
I mean, the island invaders seem like a pretty clear nod to WW2 Japan, so yeah. He's essentially saying that was us, the world could have made the same shit arguments about our indoctrinated children back then and wipe us out.You know, as much as he says he's not insane, he's still not right in the head (for me at least). While he's not experiencing anything debilitating to his mentality, he's stil clearly being affected by something jostling his brain around.
I feel like he exists as a criticism of the "Us vs Them" mentality that war propaganda puts into people. Y'know, the kind that just coddles an entire race of people as "irredeemable," where simply sharing the same blood with a terrorist meant you, no matter how estranged from the blood, are a terrorist as well. Like the sins of the grandfather still being the sins of the grandson.
Meh, I wouldn't worry, those kinds of people won't see past the cool swords, plus they have a fantastic ability to miss the point and just read whatever they want into any work (eg the Punisher, Homelander etc). Godd examples of that in these very comment sections.God please protect Taco-sensei I just fucking know these exteme nationalists will want his head on a platter once the anime comes out
A lot of things point to this ending soon, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't the original plan. They haven't even introduced all of the swords. Those unfinished chapters may have been a sign the mangaka has had enough.As much as I love this series, I hope it ends after defeating the sword master with a great ending instead of dragging for 500 chapters and another arc. Maybe do another series in the same universe for example.
The Sazanami aren't all that hidden, they literally all live together in a mansion. But I get your point, for some reason I figured the war had been over for a while before he went full nazi, but it may have happened straight after.Priority?
Rakuzaichi folks are undrerground criminals lying deep inside the capital while he’s at the frontline with the descendants of the actual enemy all around. Make sense he chose target that way; and he’s then apprehended immediately after.
