why?
the police at the time were infiltrated by the Jap feds who will likely kill him and Yagami would rather see him walk away then get killed by the feds
the point of there not being enough evidence against Kuwana is debatable though
Yagami was fine with Kuroiwa getting executed by cops in the first game, but now he thinks another serial killer’s life is worth protecting? >inb4 he didn’t ACTUALLY kill anyone
Kuroiwa was actively attempting to kill someone in front of the police who tried to simply arrest him at first, Yagami couldn't do anything to stop that even if he wanted to
Kuwana gets away because the police are being controlled by a feds who are actively looking to assassinate Kuwana when they get to him and Yagami doesn't want to help those feds get what they want, even if he thinks Kuwana should see justice.
>abloo blooo Yagami shouldn't have even tried to stop him because Kuwana was right, as even Kaito pointed out when he asked "Are you sure you're on the right side this time?" >abloo bloo Yagami should have stopped Kuwana no matter what despite the morally grey nature of their antagonistic relationship being the point of the game

Were you just not paying attention at all? His actions are favored because he's fighting injustice. The justice system refuses to punish the people driving kids to suicide because they're underage and even if it does punish them it's a slap on the wrist compared to if an adult were to get a kid to kill himself even if the bullies understood exactly what they were doing and how much they were torturing the kid until it led them to suicide. People relate to Kuwana wanting to get that justice.
Have you never questioned why The Punisher is one of the more popular Marvel characters? He murders entire armies of people, sometimes for thought crimes, sometimes for actual crimes, sometimes for heinous crimes. He murders people who the justice system can't get to legally or have corrupted the justice system.
Kuwana is in the wrong. He murders a bunch of random people, many of which who have tried to move on from the scenarios. He murders for his own vanity rather than justice as evidenced by him still murdering people who the parents don't want to kill/have forgiven. He's a hypocrite as he was willing to write off Sawa's death and actively let Yagami nearly get killed multiple times, one of them almost by his own hand (The ship explosion), just to enact his own means.
The game shows you that Yagami's actions are what Kuwana should have done.
[...]
Did you forget that Yagami isn't a cold-blooded murderer and they spent multiple chapters setting up that Yagami had nothing on Kuwana because all the evidence pointed to his students murdering them? Yagami wants to bring Kuwana in by the books but he can't because Kuwana is manipulating the very legal system Yagami wants to uphold. The entire game beats you over the head that the law isn't 100% just and very flawed and that Yagami understands that but is willing to accept having to let Kuwana go to uphold the justice he believes in and wants to make better.
Also, wouldn't the glowies just have disappeared his ass while he sat in a cell? Without any proof, the police couldn't hold him long but the higher ups would've certainly killed him. It wasn't just mustache man after him.

That's the problem that you're going to have to deal with to work towards a solution. >one of them went on to become a teacher who bullies his own students and was implied to be grooming one of them.
Which would have instantly destroyed his career if Sawa, Toshiro, or even Koda ended up blabbing.
If Kuwana fought for laws that forced transparency in schools and allowed students to come forward to the police anonymously to accuse the schools of things like that that would already solve several issues. It would have let people like Toshiro submit a complaint without his father having to know about it. If he fought for more advocacy it would have allowed students to be more privvy to what was right and what was not in terms of stopping bullying. If he fought for harsher punishments for students that clearly knew what they were doing when bullying someone that severely or even to the point of suicide he would have gotten somewhere.
There will always be corrupt and bad people, but Kuwana's actions did jack and shit to stop bullying and suicide-related bullying. All it did was kill some people and ruin his and a bunch of other people's lives including someone who was fighting internal Japanese corruption.
You’re really underestimating how easy it is for someone to get arrested, especially based on multiple accusations and under suspicious circumstances like the massive fight in the warehouse.
My point is that Yagami shouldn’t cry over glowies killing Kuwana because it is the lesser of two evils compared to letting him go, when you work in that field you should expect to have to make a hard choice like that to save more lives in the future.
>because it is the lesser of two evils compared to letting him go
Which Yagami doesn't care about. He wants justice to be served legally and in a way he can live with. There is nothing Yagami could have done to put him away, and he wasn't going to let someone get murdered. Yagami wanted to put Kuwana away by the books to show that while the legal system is flawed it still can work, it's why he fought so hard against RK and the government. He also wanted to show Kuwana that his method was massively flawed through his actions which he did. It's why Kuwana even agrees to a lot of what Yagami is saying in the end arguments and why he even releases the bodies.

Meanwhile, many more students will take their lives and the authorities will continue to look the other way and ignore the cause because change won't happen overnight in a corrupt society.

Kuwana might be indirectly responsible for her death, but Yagami blaming the Vice Minister for it for what she did years ago made no fricking sense at all.
Literally did nothing wrong, that b***h teacher had it coming since she was part of the coverup and I don't see why they kept playing her death up as such a bad thing.

>and I don't see why they kept playing her death up as such a bad thing.
Because when she was going to start speaking up they murdered her and it's entirely because she realized who Kuwana was? The entire reason why Yagami keeps bringing her up is because Kuwana refused to acknowledged that RK was on her because she realized who Kuwana was and what he was doing. Kuwana refuses to even accept that he let an innocent die in his pursuit for "Getting justice for innocents" and then proceeds to try getting Yagami killed like four times while saying he's trying to get justice for innocent people.

You realize you're asking for him to just get assassinated, right? The very thing Yagami was actively ranting about in the ending and vehemently against doing the entire game? The Japanese government was looking to get him killed so the instant he gets arrested he commits suicide with two bullets to the back of the head.
You also realize not a single person in his class or Yagami's crew has any actual proof of what they're saying, right? Every single body dating back a decade has the fingerprints of his students who never went to the police at any point whereas he's spotless, and all they have to go on compared to hard evidence is a bunch of randos who have been meeting with the students recently and his students who have been covering up a bunch of murders for a decade saying that Kuwana did it.
You’re really underestimating how easy it is for someone to get arrested, especially based on multiple accusations and under suspicious circumstances like the massive fight in the warehouse.
My point is that Yagami shouldn’t cry over glowies killing Kuwana because it is the lesser of two evils compared to letting him go, when you work in that field you should expect to have to make a hard choice like that to save more lives in the future.
letting Kuwana walk free then tell the police about the other killed bullies was the game admitting no one had a good answer for the question either way
but this is too difficult for 15 year old chan to grasp
>was the game admitting no one had a good answer for the question either way
But the game did have a good answer to the question. Why do you think they had Koda befriending her own bullies and being an active act in saving someone else from falling down that path?
The message the game had was that Kuwana's method is an extreme that doesn't address the core issues of the problem and simply picks off the weeds as they grow. All it does is bring other people into your ego trip and actively ruin their lives to get revenge without stopping it from happening in the first place. Kuwana even has this delusional thought that by releasing the bodies it would scare students into not bullying anyone because it might get them killed when the entire story shows you that no one in Seiryo cared at all outside of being sad their teacher/students died.
Yagami's methods ended up stopping a bullying epidemic in Seiryo by him actively participating in the MRC and as a simple person talking to a bunch of the students. It also brings up multiple times that nothing Kuwana does solves anything. All it does is have him directly ruining the lives of other people. He never stopped for one minute to become a government representative using his story as a teacher who failed his student to help other students by fighting for stronger laws, he never tried making a suicide hotline, he never advocated for anything.
She deserved it
She's not an innocent
She was an active participant of the coverup
>She was an active participant of the coverup
Who was going to blab after Yagami barely prodded her a few times because of how much guilt she had over doing that. It's why she even tells Yagami anything on the rooftop in the first place.
>Who was going to blab after Yagami barely prodded her a few times
How many years later? And what did she do during the actual trial, when it actually mattered?
She deserved it.
>How many years later?
A year? >And what did she do during the actual trial, when it actually mattered?
She was threatened into silence by having her entire life upended and ruined if she spoke the truth because she had zero proof of anything she was saying due to internal corruption. Not everyone is a bastion of humanity and is able to screw themselves over for justice, but even with her it was eating at her inside which is why she ends up confiding in Yagami and willing to end her career as a teacher just to make things right. >She deserved it.
She deserved what, getting killed by a secret government organization because she stumbled upon the fact that Kuwana was a serial killer which could have ended up revealing that he knew who Reiko was and that he helped Reiko kill someone thus destroying her career as a politician? Because that's why she ended up getting killed.
Kuwana might be indirectly responsible for her death, but Yagami blaming the Vice Minister for it for what she did years ago made no fricking sense at all.
He was trying to show Reiko that by helping Kuwana stay in the dark and keep killing it would just lead to more and more people like Sawa getting their lives killed to justify his ego and enact some parent's revenge which was completely true as shown to us by Yagami nearly getting killed and all his students either dying or getting pseudo-framed for murders.
Meanwhile, many more students will take their lives and the authorities will continue to look the other way and ignore the cause because change won't happen overnight in a corrupt society. Kuwana's actions, while drastic, is a necessary evil in order to expedite the process of change for the sake of potential future victims of bullying.
Except, as the game showed, it did none of that. He ruined a bunch of his student's lives, he ended up being the cause of Sawa's death, and he caused Reiko to lose a promising position exposing Japanese corruption meaning she could have taken down Daidoji and his men's operations to some degree.
No one was worried about some bully serial killer, they were sad about people at their school being continuously murdered. Kuwana releasing the bodies isn't even mentioned in The Kaito Files that's how little Kuwana's actions mattered. The trial did nothing but show some dad trying to make a mockery of the judicial system, it did nothing to bring his son's plight to the masses as evidenced by no one talking about it.
>and he caused Reiko to lose a promising position exposing Japanese corruption meaning she could have taken down Daidoji and his men's operations to some degree.
Let's just blame Kuwana for that and not Public Security who were the scumbags who wanted to blackmail her in the first place. I swear, Yagami spent way more time being mad at everyone BUT the people who were actually directly involved with Sawa sensei's death. No wonder it's such a huge fricking meme.
Of course Public Security is also at fault. It's both their fault and Kuwana's fault. PS's for doing everything in the first place and Kuwana for allowing Sawa to become a dispensable pawn he doesn't even think about after she died until Yagami brought up why she died to him.

The entire game beats you over the head that the law isn't 100% just and very flawed and that Yagami understands that but is willing to accept having to let Kuwana go to uphold the justice he believes in and wants to make better.
have a nice day Moose I don’t care how corrupt a system is there is no justification for ever willingly letting a serial killer go.
You can worry about reforming the system after the dangerous killer is incapacitated to stop him harming anyone else.
so...you want Yagami.... to break the law...to stop the guy....breaking the law...?
WE'RE BREAKING ZA RAWWWWWWWWWWW
Break the law how? By letting him be arrested? Whatever the glowies do to him wouldn’t involve him.
how do you 'let' him 'get arrested'? You're telling us Yagami should've just killed him, because he certainly wasn't going to be like "Yeah bro, I'll just wait right here for the glowies to kill me"
>knock him out or restrain him somehow
>present him to the police and explain everything that happened, with testimonies from other witnesses and other evidence easily corroborating it
It wouldn’t be hard at all.
knock him out how? Magic? Fricking moron. And then what? Yagami would be responsible for his death at that point and for nothing because nobody had ANYTHING on Kuwana. It would've made Yagami a hypocrite on three counts.
Thank FRICK you don't write stories.
If I wrote this story I wouldn’t have ever placed Yagami in such a moronic moral dilemma to begin with. You’re literally defending a serial killer going free because somehow killing him would be a bad thing, is this just because you hate bullies that much? lmao grow up.
>You can worry about reforming the system after the dangerous killer is incapacitated to stop him harming anyone else.
Tell me, what are you going to arrest him on? How can you prove he's a serial killer? How can you prove you were killing a serial killer? How can you justify murdering him with no proof to anyone?
I’m not saying Yagami should directly kill him you moron(though that would still be preferable to LETTING A FRICKING SERIAL KILLER WALK AWAY).
What evidence did they have? Would the testimony of Yagami, Kaito, Soma, and everyone else in that warehouse not be enough to at least detain him while an investigation occurs? I swear you Kuwana wienersuckers have no understanding of how law enforcement actually works.
moron
I accept your concession.
Better that than even risking Kuwana killing more people. Do you cry every time a cop shoots a dangerous criminal?
>at least detain him while an investigation occurs?
and then he gets GLOWIE'D, no trial, no justice. You know, the same exact thing Yagami lectured about for 10 minutes in that scene?
And you want him to directly lead to Kuwana's death the same way Yagami blamed him and Rekio for Sawa?
fricking moron lmao
I just want to bring up that Yagami's actor is also the main character in a movie with the exact same themes as this, Killing for the Prosecution. It's really good, worth a watch.
>The game shows you that Yagami's actions are what Kuwana should have done.
If he did what Yagami did, the bullies responsible for the deaths would've gotten away scot free. Let's not forget that one of them went on to become a teacher who bullies his own students and was implied to be grooming one of them.
>the bullies responsible for the deaths would've gotten away scot free
That's the problem that you're going to have to deal with to work towards a solution.
>one of them went on to become a teacher who bullies his own students and was implied to be grooming one of them.
Which would have instantly destroyed his career if Sawa, Toshiro, or even Koda ended up blabbing.
If Kuwana fought for laws that forced transparency in schools and allowed students to come forward to the police anonymously to accuse the schools of things like that that would already solve several issues. It would have let people like Toshiro submit a complaint without his father having to know about it. If he fought for more advocacy it would have allowed students to be more privvy to what was right and what was not in terms of stopping bullying. If he fought for harsher punishments for students that clearly knew what they were doing when bullying someone that severely or even to the point of suicide he would have gotten somewhere.
There will always be corrupt and bad people, but Kuwana's actions did jack and shit to stop bullying and suicide-related bullying. All it did was kill some people and ruin his and a bunch of other people's lives including someone who was fighting internal Japanese corruption.
>because it is the lesser of two evils compared to letting him go
Which Yagami doesn't care about. He wants justice to be served legally and in a way he can live with. There is nothing Yagami could have done to put him away, and he wasn't going to let someone get murdered. Yagami wanted to put Kuwana away by the books to show that while the legal system is flawed it still can work, it's why he fought so hard against RK and the government. He also wanted to show Kuwana that his method was massively flawed through his actions which he did. It's why Kuwana even agrees to a lot of what Yagami is saying in the end arguments and why he even releases the bodies.
Meanwhile, many more students will take their lives and the authorities will continue to look the other way and ignore the cause because change won't happen overnight in a corrupt society. Kuwana's actions, while drastic, is a necessary evil in order to expedite the process of change for the sake of potential future victims of bullying.
serial killers dont kill bullies
>no he’s not a serial killer because I don’t like the people he kills
Are you a child?
It’s obvious you’re a cuck who is a slave to muh authority and the bullshit justice system.
Aren't you forgetting about Sawa-sensei OP?
he literally saw Emi Terasawa in her. He felt guilt over bringing her into things, and anger that the ones responsible glossed it over.
Do autists just not get that or something? This moron place is the only place I see cry about that plot point.
Kuwana might be indirectly responsible for her death, but Yagami blaming the Vice Minister for it for what she did years ago made no fricking sense at all.
If he wins then Sawa-sensei loses.
>Muh Sawa Sensei
all he wanted was to explore the world with his nephew.
Literally did nothing wrong, that b***h teacher had it coming since she was part of the coverup and I don't see why they kept playing her death up as such a bad thing.
>and I don't see why they kept playing her death up as such a bad thing.
Because when she was going to start speaking up they murdered her and it's entirely because she realized who Kuwana was? The entire reason why Yagami keeps bringing her up is because Kuwana refused to acknowledged that RK was on her because she realized who Kuwana was and what he was doing. Kuwana refuses to even accept that he let an innocent die in his pursuit for "Getting justice for innocents" and then proceeds to try getting Yagami killed like four times while saying he's trying to get justice for innocent people.
You realize you're asking for him to just get assassinated, right? The very thing Yagami was actively ranting about in the ending and vehemently against doing the entire game? The Japanese government was looking to get him killed so the instant he gets arrested he commits suicide with two bullets to the back of the head.
You also realize not a single person in his class or Yagami's crew has any actual proof of what they're saying, right? Every single body dating back a decade has the fingerprints of his students who never went to the police at any point whereas he's spotless, and all they have to go on compared to hard evidence is a bunch of randos who have been meeting with the students recently and his students who have been covering up a bunch of murders for a decade saying that Kuwana did it.
She deserved it
She's not an innocent
She was an active participant of the coverup
If Sawa sensei didn't die, would Yagami even have the resolve to see the case to the end?
You’re really underestimating how easy it is for someone to get arrested, especially based on multiple accusations and under suspicious circumstances like the massive fight in the warehouse.
My point is that Yagami shouldn’t cry over glowies killing Kuwana because it is the lesser of two evils compared to letting him go, when you work in that field you should expect to have to make a hard choice like that to save more lives in the future.
personally I would have just shot Kuwana
letting Kuwana walk free then tell the police about the other killed bullies was the game admitting no one had a good answer for the question either way
but this is too difficult for 15 year old chan to grasp
What a radical centrist take.
>was the game admitting no one had a good answer for the question either way
But the game did have a good answer to the question. Why do you think they had Koda befriending her own bullies and being an active act in saving someone else from falling down that path?
The message the game had was that Kuwana's method is an extreme that doesn't address the core issues of the problem and simply picks off the weeds as they grow. All it does is bring other people into your ego trip and actively ruin their lives to get revenge without stopping it from happening in the first place. Kuwana even has this delusional thought that by releasing the bodies it would scare students into not bullying anyone because it might get them killed when the entire story shows you that no one in Seiryo cared at all outside of being sad their teacher/students died.
Yagami's methods ended up stopping a bullying epidemic in Seiryo by him actively participating in the MRC and as a simple person talking to a bunch of the students. It also brings up multiple times that nothing Kuwana does solves anything. All it does is have him directly ruining the lives of other people. He never stopped for one minute to become a government representative using his story as a teacher who failed his student to help other students by fighting for stronger laws, he never tried making a suicide hotline, he never advocated for anything.
>She was an active participant of the coverup
Who was going to blab after Yagami barely prodded her a few times because of how much guilt she had over doing that. It's why she even tells Yagami anything on the rooftop in the first place.
>Who was going to blab after Yagami barely prodded her a few times
How many years later? And what did she do during the actual trial, when it actually mattered?
She deserved it.
>How many years later?
A year?
>And what did she do during the actual trial, when it actually mattered?
She was threatened into silence by having her entire life upended and ruined if she spoke the truth because she had zero proof of anything she was saying due to internal corruption. Not everyone is a bastion of humanity and is able to screw themselves over for justice, but even with her it was eating at her inside which is why she ends up confiding in Yagami and willing to end her career as a teacher just to make things right.
>She deserved it.
She deserved what, getting killed by a secret government organization because she stumbled upon the fact that Kuwana was a serial killer which could have ended up revealing that he knew who Reiko was and that he helped Reiko kill someone thus destroying her career as a politician? Because that's why she ended up getting killed.
He was trying to show Reiko that by helping Kuwana stay in the dark and keep killing it would just lead to more and more people like Sawa getting their lives killed to justify his ego and enact some parent's revenge which was completely true as shown to us by Yagami nearly getting killed and all his students either dying or getting pseudo-framed for murders.
Except, as the game showed, it did none of that. He ruined a bunch of his student's lives, he ended up being the cause of Sawa's death, and he caused Reiko to lose a promising position exposing Japanese corruption meaning she could have taken down Daidoji and his men's operations to some degree.
No one was worried about some bully serial killer, they were sad about people at their school being continuously murdered. Kuwana releasing the bodies isn't even mentioned in The Kaito Files that's how little Kuwana's actions mattered. The trial did nothing but show some dad trying to make a mockery of the judicial system, it did nothing to bring his son's plight to the masses as evidenced by no one talking about it.
autist
>and he caused Reiko to lose a promising position exposing Japanese corruption meaning she could have taken down Daidoji and his men's operations to some degree.
Let's just blame Kuwana for that and not Public Security who were the scumbags who wanted to blackmail her in the first place. I swear, Yagami spent way more time being mad at everyone BUT the people who were actually directly involved with Sawa sensei's death. No wonder it's such a huge fricking meme.
Of course Public Security is also at fault. It's both their fault and Kuwana's fault. PS's for doing everything in the first place and Kuwana for allowing Sawa to become a dispensable pawn he doesn't even think about after she died until Yagami brought up why she died to him.
By Yagami's logic, he's also responsible for Shintani's death in the first game because the Mole wouldn't have killed him if Yagami didn't pursue the case further.
Yagami's also responsible for Sawa's death because he started digging and uprooted a lot of the truth.
Short list of people who are to blame for Sawa-sensei's death and should feel guilty about it:
>everyone but Soma
same but him in nioh 2
kuroiwa<soma
Literally Yagami's argument
>cop is a serial killer
>serial killer is a cop
whats next?
>The new Vice Minister of Health is a serial killer
>cop is a cop
>serial killer is a serial killer
