Sure, but that's not happening here. Does it happen sometimes for other series? Yeah, but that's just people processing art differently. Folks are free to have problematic faves or miss the point entirely. It may not be a perspective I share, but it doesn't hurt me if they have it.

Those with a tad higher moral compass, if faced with decision like this, could have a hesitation, that it'll be a sadistic choice for them; to lose the ones they love or preventing that while doing a wrong thing.

Daisuke does hesitate, though. He knows that killing Tendou is wrong, that Tendou doesn't deserve to be in the middle of this, but he doesn't think he has a choice. He may go through with it, but it's not like he enjoys it.

If I was dragged all over town for a full day to watch two evenly-matched dudes fail to best each other... yeah, I think Hiyori is maybe underselling how bored she must feel.

If anything, maybe Tendou is a bad influence on Tsurugi? He went from a guy who was prepared to play a normal soccer match to a guy who spent an entire day fighting Tendou. What is it with Tendou driving all these dudes crazy?!
