ABSOLUTE NOBODY:

IRUKA: LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH

Man, you gotta love manga. Iruka just conveniently happens to carry a photo of Ao’s sister around in his pocket. You never know when you might need it, I guess.

Unless... she was actually his lover, and the organization forced him to get rid of her for some reason. But I doubt it. It’s much more likely that it’s just an asspull.

Thanks for the chapter!

He already needed to blackmail her with ao-kun to do this job, why would it be an asspull that he decided more safety against nezumi was needed? If anything it's how unafraid he was of setting off nezumi that was the unrealistic part, so him thinking he has some ace in the hole to rein her back in makes perfect sense.

Okay, but that "ace in the hole" is a photo in his pocket that he just happens to have on him at the exact second she's about to kill him.

If his plan was "carry leverage at all times just in case," fine, but why this photo? Why is he walking around with a picture of Ao's sister like it's everyday carry? That's not being prepared. That's carrying around a very specific, very random piece of evidence for no logical reason unless he knew exactly that this confrontation would happen.

So yeah, him wanting insurance makes sense. But that specific insurance being a photo in his pocket, at that exact time, with zero setup? That's not preparation. So that just makes it contrived writing.

You're maybe right that his fearlessness is unrealistic, but the guy is being painted as some sort of sociopath the whole story. The photo being there is very specific, situational and convenient. That's the problem.

The plan "Nezumi-chan's First Love" was literally a plan devised by the mob guys to establish a deeper connection between Ao-kun and Nezumi-chan in order to ulteriorly supress Nezumi's free will and repress every bad memory she could have of killing another human being (this also explains why Ao-kun was spared after the mob guys "first" found out that he was dating Nezumi)

These pictures are from chapter 28, 45 and 95 (we still don't know why Ao-kun has this scar behind his neck)

Just so you know, I already knew all this and wrote this post before the new chapter was released in Japan today
