I'm not going to criticize the show too hard since I don't think their whole hand had been played yet, but I actually think Layton hit the nail on the head for why what happened with Hiromi and Ikki this episode didn't entirely work for me. Hiromi is reckless with his own life to the point of actually being detrimental to his own attempts at heroism, and Ikki encouraging it was not something I felt was positive. That being said, I really can't help but feel the show is slowly working towards some kind of incredible breaking point where the characters start realizing their own flaws more deeply. I'm just hope my faith in the show isn't misplaced!
