That just sounds like basic cause and effect to me. Shioya was presumably "killed" for Nyelve's hidden agenda, rather than him being a random unlucky victim who's merely killed to further the plot for Hanto. That's not what I'd call heavy-handed, especially if there's a way for Shioya to come back later.
Perhaps Nyelv does have a secret plan involving Hanto/KR Valen, and I'd like to see it unfold. That plan may also involve Kenzou as another pawn who has been manipulated by being supplied with top-secret information and objects such as the Granute's internal organ. It'd make no sense for Mr. Shioya to be revived because it's said that a human dies if his Hito Press is broken. It'd also be too obvious and too easy to read. Some fan forums have been speculating about the existence of a Godly, divine, all-powerful entity who is able to revive all humans eaten by Granutes. If that entity indeed exists, then the writers of this story are also trying to out-Yuuya Yuuya Takahashi, like Gotchard writers were, haha. |

Hanto's grudge toward Granutes due to his mom being kidnapped by a mysterious, elusive Granute with a red Gavv 18 years ago was more than enough to motivate him to transform into KR Valen, but the writers didn't use it and chose Mr. Shioya's death as the one that motivated Hanto to transform into KR Valen because the writers likely need to keep the kidnapping of Hanto's mom as another plot point in future episodes, which I think will be his conflict with Shouma (who will likely be revealed as the mysterious Granute), like I've hypothesized in episode 6 thread here.

Hanto initially hesitated to accept the surgery even after Shioya's death, so it's clear that for him to develop to the point of being desperate enough to become Valen, it would've needed more than only his mother's death. Or maybe he would've still reached that point eventually, but it would've taken much longer than Episode 6. Shioya's death simply gave haste to Hanto's arc in a way that serves the narrative. You can argue the logistics if you want, but I believe that Hanto's reaction to the chain of events is true to the character.
You don't need to be a professional writer to come up with a convoluted, seemingly 7D chain of events that violates all forms of logic, rationality, and common sense, and as a result turns the story into a giant pile of nonsensical mess and turns the characters into dumb, shallow, 1D creatures. Everyone can do that, especially someone with AI writing tools such as Chat GPT and the likes. This atrocious level of lack of common sense and critical thinking suspiciously is the hallmark of AI-generated texts, images, and videos. If someone tells me that this sloppy mess of a story is AI-generated, I'd probably believe it, haha. Quote:
Like I said before, Shioya may not need to be revived to come back, as we didn't actually see him die and therefore it's possible that he's still alive and that the Hitopress is a fake. Even if you assume that he is really dead, then your argument is basically, "it doesn't make sense for him to revive due to him being dead", which is literally a requirement for someone to revive, that they have to be dead first.
And haven't you realized that there's yet another huge logical anomaly? If Mr. Shioya and Hanto were the only people under the sun who knew about their plan to investigate the suspicious bar in episode 5, then how come the mushroom Granute knew about the exact location and the exact time Mr. Shioya was investigating there at the end of episode 5? Hanto didn't tell Kenzou about it, so Kenzou can't leak it to Nyelv and the mushroom Granute. So, how come the mushroom Granute knew? If the answer is because the mushroom Granute was informed by Nyelv's agents, then yes, this story is providing yet another new evidence of how atrociously, sloppily, lazily written it is. |
