seeing aki as a kid blindly just having fun in what would probably be his last moments is so depressing.
he’s manipulated to do what he despises most: the killing of innocents. it morally goes against his very being and instead of hunting down the gun devil to avenge his loved ones, he ends up becoming the very thing he fears most. it was through power and denji that he finally found a reason to live, even going as far as deciding to give up the mission that would’ve brought him closer to defeating the gun devil- all to protect p + d. i don’t think ppl grasp how serious this is- aki would willingly sacrifice himself and give up his LIFE PURPOSE, his life-long gd obsession, just to ensure p+d are safe. i honestly believe he’s one of the most unfortunate characters in this series. even his feelings for makami are fabricated.
it’s inevitable that his death is creeping soon, and the fact that his blood would most likely be spewed in the hands of denji makes my heart ache
Damn I was hoping if she had to like someone it would be Ian so we could get a jealous Raymond for a change lmao
