This is not the 'essence of the protagonist' that the audience in the live broadcast room kept talking about.
This is something that any person with a conscience should do!
That's right..
Even if there is hell ahead.
Even if you will regret it later.
The young man named Kamijou Touma will never give up until he sees the Yellow River again.
As long as there is a glimmer of hope to save others, he will do his best.
Even if this matter will eventually backfire on me...
The audience outside the video saw that Touma was still stubborn and insisted on his own opinion.
Gradually I realized something was wrong.
This display of honesty and kindness...is really too much.
And at this moment, in the video.
Two lines of handwriting drive the gears of the plot.
"It's easy to say that you'll do your best to help your compatriots in need, but it's extremely difficult to actually put it into practice... However, this boy named Kamijou Touma managed to hold on to his bottom line..."
"At this dangerous moment of survival in the narrow gap, he did not go against his own principle. The life called Kamijou Touma would help the life trapped in the abyss regardless of any obstacles."
Yes..
Maybe die.
But at this time, Touma still did it.
I originally planned to jump down, but my body was restrained by gravity.
With just a tiny bit of time error, hundreds of spheres formed a vortex and wrapped around itself.
“....!”
Touma couldn't help but close his eyes tightly.
【At least protect the girl. 】
A cry from the heart.
he thought to himself.
However, if it was just one or two spheres, he could still block them with his body, but with hundreds of them, he was helpless. Kamijou's body would surely be slowly corroded and dissolved by the spheres like strong acid, just like being gnawed by countless insects.
The audience in the live broadcast room looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy when they saw this, and their faces became solemn.
Some viewers even closed their eyes because they didn't want to see this tragedy.
And at this moment, in the ground of Academy City.
Index was so nervous that she couldn't breathe.
She had no idea how Touma had managed to survive such a desperate situation.
But...if this situation happens again, she would rather Touma be like a fool and not have the courage to enter this extremely bad purgatory.
How did you survive?
How did you survive?
Looking at the crazy comments in the live broadcast room, Index looked at Touma nervously.
Immediately, an intriguing answer was obtained.
“Well...well..." Mr. Kamijou touched his forehead, but didn't say much. He just motioned Index to continue reading.
After all, it's something that's going to be aired soon, so there's no point in spoiling it, and it would only reduce the girl's viewing experience, right?
"...........?"
"All right!"
Index hummed in a muffled voice.
Then, continue watching the video.
On screen...
The picture seems to be played frame by frame.
It became extremely slow and dawdling.
The gears that drive the plot seem to have stopped, stuck in this scene.
When Touma closed his eyes, welcoming the coming moment of eternal darkness.
But...
——This thing did not happen. I waited for a long time, but still nothing happened.
There was an illusion that time had stopped. Kamijou didn't dare to open his eyes. He was caught in a strange fantasy, as if the moment he opened his eyes, time would start moving again.
Even so, I can't help but open my eyes.
Touma opened his eyes cautiously with fear in his heart, as if he was cutting the wires of a time bomb.
".........ah?"
But even with his eyes open, he still couldn't understand the situation in front of him.
It felt as if time had truly stopped.
Because only time stopping can explain the current situation.
Thousands approaching the front of the nose
Hundreds of spheres were about to devour Kamijou Touma.
However, the vortex of this sphere now seemed to be suspended in the air, just like a videotape that had been paused.
After a while, the sphere seemed to have lost its patience and finally began to move again.
However, instead of swallowing Kamijou like a raging stream, countless balls fell vertically to the floor like an apple that was originally held in one’s hand was slowly let go. The balls that fell to the floor then disappeared as if they melted into the air.
Then, there was the sound of footsteps.
He was completely confused. Although he was confused, he knew that the footsteps came from the bottom of the stairs. In order to find the answer, Kamijou looked down from the stairwell, searching for the source of the footsteps.
There is an entrance and exit to the corridor below the stairs. The setting sun casts a shadow on the dark escape stairs.
over there,
Standing there was the “blood-sucking killer” Himegami Aisa, who was looking up at Kamijou as if she were from the bottom of a well.
Chapter 4. Index's suspicion of jealousy (k)
All heavens and worlds.
As the plot progresses, a huge number of viewers suffer a nuclear-level blow.
Touma's passion.
This mentality is called "kindness" but is actually that of a pushover.
Should it really be promoted?
To be fair.
Even if the rescue was successful, Touma had no intention of asking for any reward.
What's more, if the rescue fails, he will be doomed.
Therefore, when the viewers saw him carrying the bruised and battered student, they felt quite complicated.
There are supporters, opponents, and sharp comments from a bird's eye view, and everyone expresses their own opinions.
"If we can't even save ordinary people in front of us, isn't this situation tantamount to violating the Ninja Way?!" In the spiritual world, Mt. Myoboku, Uzumaki Naruto, who was brought in for training by Jiraiya, shouted out his opinion, representing many kind-hearted people.
"Maybe... I'm just a hypothetical case. If the motivation that drives him to do this kind of saintly mentality that goes beyond the norm is to save others... I'm afraid that even if he is really traumatized, he will continue to do this again and again in the future and never give up." On Earth in the Dragon Ball universe, the martial arts master Master Roshi's school of thought represents the entanglement in the hearts of the audience with complex emotions.
“Saving others within one’s own ability is a saintly act that is worth promoting. But if it harms oneself, this behavior will be seen by the outside world as a stupid and ridiculous saintly act… Although this young man did not ask for anything in return, and would never care about the audience’s comments, but as far as I am concerned… it is still hard to agree with this behavior of putting oneself in danger… Speaking of which, can this behavior of meddling in other people’s affairs that almost kills oneself really be called kindness?” In the world of Akame ga Kill, even the experienced General Najeshitan shook her head, not understanding how to understand the boy’s behavior. She represented the opinions of the majority of the opposition.
"Before something happens, everyone will say that if they see someone drowning in a mud pit, they should help... But most of the time, everyone is just talking." In Academy City, Tsuchimikado Motoharu thought of his best friend's stupidity, with a smile on his face: "Akami is different, meow~! He always does what he says, and his conscience is so strong that even the saints on the street will kneel down and pray for him because he is blessed by the Holy Light, meow!"
Being kind is a good thing.
However, kindness can also become a shackle.
Just like the plot progression.
He nearly lost his life trying to save a stranger.
To sum up, among the comments, the most appropriate one is Tsuchimikado's point of view.
The extreme of kindness is greed, and Touma has an obsessive-compulsive disorder that requires him to help those who are suffering from disasters.
Is this worth it?
There will be no benefit, and there may even be a risk of hospitalization.
What a terrible kindness, damn it!!!
Kamijou Touma knew that the popular comments in the live broadcast room might be more rational and pure.
but..
There is no reason for him to change his personality because of this.
"Seeing someone fall into the water and wanting to help them is basic common sense for humans, right?"
Be persistent in your own opinions and don't be influenced by external interference.
The boy named Kamijou Touma is such a hero.
Maybe that's why.
In the video.
He will be rescued by Himegami Aisa in a critical moment.
This is the reward of kindness.
It is the inevitable intersection of fate.
That's all.
The plan to save Himegami Aisa is fully implemented.
Regardless of thought or awareness.
Kamijou Touma had no regrets at all.
Even if Himegami Aisa raised such questions from the audience.
【Why do you want to help me? 】
Be it God or Buddha.
Everything in the world has cause and effect.
The scale that measures a hero's character is usually the chip that calculates what they gain from their actions.
But Kamijou Touma broke this fixed balance circle.
Why would there be so many strange words when it comes to saving someone?
"What why? Do you need a reason to save someone?"
The answer came out as clear and pure as a mirror.
In the final analysis..
Why do we need reason to save people?
There is no need for the audience to brag about this.
Put aside the arguments of various audience groups for praise or criticism.
There are also difficult problems ahead.
