Maybe you should reread Maria No Danzai? Because you’ve missed a lot of details and even started making some up. No, Taiichirou never told Maria they should have another child to replace Kiritaka. He told her they need to rebuild together because that’s what a family would do, and Maria responded, ‘Even without Kiritaka?’ It’s obviously not easy to console someone after the loss of a loved one, especially their child.
Also, he’s not aware of the real reason for his son’s death and still holds himself responsible because of the fake posts from Okaya’s group. You can criticize Taiichirou for being absorbed in his work, but we see in the flashbacks, both from Maria and Kiri, that they loved each other, and he wasn’t a toxic man, either as a father or a husband. We also see that he loved his family despite his obsession with work…
So if you don’t want to like Taiichirou, that’s your right, but at least hate him for real reasons. The other person who says Maria deserves a second chance while she herself doesn’t want one and chose not to involve Taiichirou in her revenge because she wants him to take care of Kiri’s grave… and to top it off, Maria feels absolutely nothing for the other professor. Stop shipping characters that don’t even make sense… she still blushes in front of Taiichirou, has never blushed in front of the professor, but you’re talking about shipping… I don’t like making these kinds of posts, but you don’t understand what you’re reading, and it’s a shame.
