I think his grief despite those two being his abusers is somewhat realistic, it's similar to the case surrounding Johnny Kitagawa, a man who was abusing young boys he was scouting for talent. A number of them even as adults spoke well of Johnny, even going as far as to say he did what he did to them out of love and don't condemn or acknowledge the abuse.And I'm not sure how we're supposed to take Mitsuharu's grief. Stockholm syndrome? Legitimate love & loss? Whatever the case, the post-assassination scene between him & Mimi felt very forced and unreal, almost surreal in its uncanny valley sentimentality. Which, again, isn't necessarily a bad thing. To its credit, this series is starting to remind me of HITS, which does a pretty great job of sustaining a similar kind of not-quite-comical comic eccentricity.
