The problem with introducing multiple love rivals for the obvious winning heroine is that sometimes one of them is so heroic, sincere, affectionate, and beautiful that the audience falls in love with her hard and you can no longer have her in the picture if you want to tell the exact story you intended. So Tenka's probably gonna fucking die to motivate Yuuki. The fallout for the readership is gonna be funny. Let's see what shape the manga is in in the aftermath.
Are you describing Ichigo100%? Honestly if she dies, I'd probably drop this. Every other girl seem to just mesh into puddle that I can't recall the names of the squad members we started out with.

That is a ballsy move if I've ever seen one.

I can see it working... if this wasn't a closed-room conference.

The Onmyou agency is the type of organization that has so many skeletons that trying to open such a closet would be nothing short of a diplomatic nightmare... which obviously any politician is averse to like the plague.

There are people in the room who would very much, from a moral standpoint, not like what they do... but will they take Kyoka's side? That is more complicated.

There are those that seem a little too neutral to the point I don't know what they may think... Ezo kinda falls in that category.

And in last... even if this starts a discussion about the agency, there is no guarantee it will really affect Ren's standing, truth be told... she is too powerful, and it doesn't take a genius to see her ego is too big, it is better to keep her on a "leash", the privileges the position of commander gives her serve too as a deterrent of her going rogue.

Maybe congregating every single important member of an organization in a same place isn't a great idea. Then add to that, all of them are inside the mind palace of a single persons ability... So what happens if that person gets compromised?

It's a recipe for disaster
Well, good point.

But ignoring the very recent problem they had, which already makes difficult defending this meeting, here are some of the why.

First, I think the conjurer of this place is in another place, this feels more like a barrier with alternate space construction than a mindscape, so even if the person died I think the space would simply "break" and people would be back to normal space, but I can be wrong, the fact that there is a whole process to enter and the time passage is different do bring other question.

Second... there is too much firepower inside this place now, even the gods of thunder would be hard-pressed on an attack like this, more so when they already lost two of theirs in their last attempt, I mean... the whole "peace proposal" is them buying some time to try another thing, they just wanted the MDF focusing in other things as they make their real play.

All that matters is the Japanese readership. How do the feel about Tenka?

Considering his other work, Akame ga Kill, I hope not. So far the trend has been the opposite so it seems like he's taking a different approach with this series but who knows, maybe he'll do a 180.
I keep forgetting this is that mangaka who did Chelsea Dirty in Akame ga Kill

This tittle is so brainless. Not a word about relationships. We've been interrupted and we're completely throwing out all feelings ( just like after every “reward”). Then there's the appearance of a sister who hasn't been seen in a thousand chapters and whose background is still mostly unknown.
Seriously, the only thing that drags it all up is the talent of the artist.

this "attack" isnt gonna work and yamashiro or whatever will win

its obvious. because yamashiro needs to win and then be arrogant and then the enemy needs a win thanks to that for there to be any drama or tension.
