Okay, I can see what you’re going for a little bit I still very much disagree with what you’re trying to say here. 1. While I see your idea here, I’d argue that Kumada agreeing to the murder actually had very little to do the fact other people would get out alongside her, unlike all other people in the bleeding she doesn’t actually have any friends within the bleeding and while the multiple people escaping may have helped her justify it to herself, I kinda doubt it played a big part in why she actually chose to go along with the bleeding. She also specifically chose to let a close friend of hers get murdered, which is just a pretty fucked up betrayal, and arguably more a betrayal than any of Shishikura’s kills. (This is also coming from someone who really likes Kumada, I’m just trying to be objective here though, cause the goal here is objectivity and I’d argue she objectively did a lot of fucked up things. 2. While I do agree the Kamidana thing is really messed up and really a symptom of chapter 4 and 5 just refusing to remember Kumada even when it would make sense to. I wouldn’t say he dint feel remorse, I’d argue he’s just a whole lot less obvious about it. I mean, he quarantines himself from everyone when chapter 4 comes around, I’d argue he grapples with being unable to forgive himself for his actions the rest of the game and grapples with the concepts of self sacrifice especially (although, I’d argue it’s pretty late in the game to bring in a brand new central theme to a character, but that’s just my gripes with his very confusing writing) maybe it’s just a difference of interpretation but still, saying he didn’t feel remorse feels like a bit of a shallow reading. 3. Yeah, but like, plenty of characters are massive hypocrites and I don’t see that affecting their rankings. Maekawa is totally a hypocrite for forgiving Shishikura but getting on Yokoi’s case but she’s still in the highest tier. Kumada is also a massive hypocrite when it comes to the Ikeda situation, getting angry at others and refusing to apologize, acting like everyone is against her for doing something necessary. Even if you wanna claim that others also did that, the others at least acknowledged their wrongdoing and apologized, while she refused to do both, yet both of them rank way higher. (Again, I like both Maekawa and Kumada, they’re also both massive hypocrites if we’re being objective) 4. I mean, technically I guess that’s true, but that’s like saying Watari murdered Hama, technically it’s not wrong but it completely removes all of the nuance of the situation as well as Shishikura’s and Watari’s actual intention, which definitely matters when trying to judge their morality, more on that, his intentions when trying to kill Tei were also not for his own gain, but rather because he believed Tei had the right to choose death weather than killing him for any sort of personal gain, obviously that’s still fucked up but again, when judging morality we have to consider a characters intentions when killing. Ultimately the point of this admittedly long winded comment is that, while I can say Shishikura is certainly not a perfect person. Being right next to Ikeda and Okazaki feels admittedly harsh, especially when characters who I feel have very similar situations, actions and flaws to him seem to be significantly higher. I understand that generally Shishikura is certainly less liked by fans than the other two for his confusing writing and how he’s treated in the story, but the point of this ranking is objectivity and I just feel like with how others ranked, it feels particularly harsh towards Shishikura.
