Re: Mx0 93 Discussion Thread / 94 Predictions Thread
When I read the scan I was more touched by then watching the raw - for two big main reasons:
1. kuzumi wanted to sacrifice the clearing of the level for bringing lucy back. Many people wouldn't give up their hard work that easily. Kuzumi didn't even think about it, he answered immediately. The principal mentioned of kuzumi caring a lot about magic
2. the principals appearance. He seems arrogant but actually he isn't. He lied to kuzumi because he didn't want kuzmi (and others) to see his soft and caring side. The fact kuzumi had physical problems during the test and cried out to the principal to have patience and let him clear out with these "small" injuries was another proof that kuzumi wouldn't want lucys intervention to be zero. I really think kuzumi left a very positive impression to the principal
I completely agree. I never looked at the raw, so when I thought the Principal was truthful when he said Lucy's dead, but you can save her for giving up your victory, Kuzumi's actions really made him a hero. He cared about her even though most mages see her nothing more than potions ingredients. Kuzumi definitely walks his own path. And when the Principal pulled that "You got punked" moment, I laughed. You can't judge anyone in this story on face value.
I am also seeing Kuzumi become a natural born hero and leader, even if he's to stupid to see it himself. He can get into people without meaning to and change them, even if a little. I think it will be these qualities that will best serve him when he faces the Vice-Principal. But that probably won't happen until sometime in his sophomore year. Thinking on that, that would be scary, seeing as his current bosses would be his enemies. But then Kuzumi would probably recruit others to his side. His class group and probably a few others.
This was one of the best chpters yet. I can't wait for the next one.
