Mairimashita! Iruma-kun: If Episode of Mafia - Ch. 26 - A Promise With A Demon

[fight2live]

i was hoping the bomb was found in a smarter way, but that also works i guess

Somehow, this makes Iruma/Kiriwo even gayer 💀

Anyway, THE MISFITS ARE GOING TO BE HERE???!??! Idk why but I was 100% sure that they wouldn't be included because they're innocent! Then I remember that Lied is literally a gambler, Jazz is a thief, Caim is a pervert, etc. So of course there's a basis for them to join something like the mafia. Even someone like Agares for example, I can see Gaap joining to make more allies and taking Agares with him lol.

Anyway (×2) I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE THE MISFITS TOGETHER AGAIN

That's just plain false and wrong on so many levels. The amount of contradiction in a single sentence is honestly amazing. You love Iruma, but you think he did the wrong thing by acting like Iruma in this situation? Would we accept an Iruma that lets people die so easily? That wouldn't be Iruma, therefore, that would not be the Iruma you claim to love. Iruma represents the "light" of this story. The story DEPENDS on Iruma being who he is, therefore, the story would suffer greatly if Iruma ever commits an action, or through inaction, permits something that goes against his principles to happen.
Also, you don't really know if a lot of future issues could've been avoided with this guy's death. For all we know, his death causes the downfall of our hero and his friends. We'll never know, since I doubt the author will ever write a canonical "what if" scenario.
And that's why modern super hero movies all suck.

letting the villain not get their comeupance is why so many heroes and MCs suffer needlessly. if All Might or the other heroes had jut let All For One die then there sure woulda been a ton of peeps still alive. To quote Android 16:

Cell was right. You think you're better than everyone else, but there you stand: the good man doing nothing. And while evil triumphs, and your rigid pacifism crumbles into blood-stained dust, the only victory afforded to you is that you stuck true to your guns. You were a coward... to your last whimper. Of fear and love, I fear not that I will die, but that all I have come to love: the birds, and the things that are not birds, will perish with me.

As I stated, unless the author writes a canonical "what if" scenario, we'll never truly know if killing him would have been the better choice. Whatever Androind 16 said to the coward Gohan is not even about showing mercy. That guy was just plain doing nothing while Zell had his way with the rest of the team. Doing nothing and finishing off someone who is no longer a threat are two completely different things, so that scenario doesn't fit with this dilemma.

And Iruma did nothing while he knew a bomb was going to go off that would kill a. Ton of people. Sure Az and Clara happened to find the bomb which stopped a tragedy but what did Iruma do exactly? He stood there and let it play out while doing nothing. Much like the scene with Gohan who just stood there while his friends were going to be killed. When you know someone tried to kill scores of people you don’t just let them go free, you hold them accountable for it. In this case it’s letting him off himself.

Definitely!! It's Iruma seeing a broken suicidal guy and just really wants to help him, which is a far far better relationship

Eh I think each works better for their ow story. Kiriwo in the main series works to contrast how light everything usually is.

His battle, his choice. Bystanders have no say when it comes to the "hero" choosing wether to stop or execute someone on the spot. You know the saying "with great power comes great responsibility"? Yes, that's a load of BS. The only thing that comes with great power is the freedom to act on your own choices, bystanders ans onlookers be dammed. Also, bei g a coward is the number one survival instict of ALL living beings, don't know why people like to act like it's otherwise the worst thing a person can be.
