Talk:Asami Sato's relationships/@comment-70.24.233.171-20120915013212

ANSWER TO THE ANGRY REPLIES.

Of course, I should have known I'd be called insane, evil, stupid and all those wonderful things. I knew that people would take Asami's side. I don't mind. I TAKE Asami's side on this. She IS on the right side. But she's simply not a saint, and he the devil.

He's no longer right in the head. Thats clear (although that was buttered on a bit too thickly, but thats another thing entirely) from the last episode (where he oddly shifts from wanting his daughter to join him to killing him, an odd turnabout, and an easy plot device so we could all know which is the good guy, and which is the bad guy).

So Hiroshi's insane. Thats all good. But I have a feeling from the answers I got that Asami, because of his insanity affecting him that badly, should just stick him in a cell and throw away the key. I disagree. I think family, is family. And that even when one member of your family does or did something horrible, you have to be there for that person, if only in the hopes that you can help that person out of the pit they've dug for themselves.

Now, hopefully, Asami won't turn her back on her father completely. If she does, I'm sorry, but thats NOT a strong moral compass. Its a ruthless one with very little filial affection. I don't believe she's like that, but we'll see. If she does turn her back on him and dismisses him as a shame after having been raised by the guy for 18 years or so, then, yes, she's not a good daughter. She's NOT.

I never said Hiroshi was right. He let his anger overwhelm him and drive him crazy. Asami needed to stop him, for BOTH of their sakes, not only hers. I agree she's in the right. I agree her side is in the right.

What I don't agree in, is simply putting all the blame on Hiroshi, because situations like those are never completely black and white. They're all grey.

So I pointed out the grey. I pointed out that he's a sick man, but not necessarily an evil one. And since he did raise her for 18 years, I think her turning her back on him so quickly was, well, quick. That's all. I wouldn't have turned my back on my own dad so easily. Perhaps eventually, but not right then and there. I probably would have been way too shocked. But thats me.

The one thing I dislike here, however, is to be implied to be dumb or not right in the head for pointing out that the situation is not black and white. I never attacked anyone on this board, never implied anything about anyone here, never used personal insults to further my argument. Rebuke me if you want, that is your right, and I'm quite happy with a healthy debate. But the moment someone uses insults, it stops being a debate and becomes simple bashing. And that never convinces me of an argument.

And just so I can prevent something that might happen, this wasn't a whine. I will respect your opinion, as long as you respect mine.

That being said, some gave a good counter-argument. I don't agree all the way, but there were good points.

But I still stand by my argument. I don't think I'm dumber than the next guy, and my actions in life so far have denoted a rather good grasp on sanity. ^^
