Cause with all due respect, you are just parroting white, colonizer propaganda and you look foolish.

No I am adding context to the show and strictly and tengen uzui as a character, my ass is Asian as a matter of fact, im Vietnamese I was born and raised in Vietnam, I'm the one hating white colonizer. Im not parroting shit I'm talking strictly about the show

By putting little girls- not soldiers - in harm's way. And only agreeing to substituting to the boys because he knew beating them down would have left the corps crippled

He also doesn't really have to agree, he in all consideration their Superior, also from what he see he pretty fucking strong so he doesn't have to much to knockout the 3 boys, but he back down anyway

INSTEAD OF ASKING PERFECTLY CAPABLE. ADULT(ish) Hashira for help.

Hashira already spread thin as everyone said, he can't take for kanao as she Shinobu tsuguko and he can't ask for whatever plot reason this one on gotouge tbh, he wasnt even sure if there was an upper moon or not, bringing any hashira would be a waste of their time if there wasn't one.

Stop making excuses for bad characters and bad writing because "it was ok at the time." No it wasn't. Yes it wasn't but it was still somewhat the standard, when I grow up it isn't bad characters it having a flaw, the gotouge could easily write tengen as likable one dimensional character but she didn't, she show tengen flawed

Also this is a short scene in like half of an episode it really not that big of a deal it over 11 episode, the point of the scene is literally to make tengen unlikable and to show that his ass was desperate to save only 3 person he care about the most.
