#// isamu recognizes suffering thus he remedies it by choosing to not breed it

I think a lot about how Isamu was created to compliment Naoto. His early concept was to act as an attendant for the Zen'in family but, he really took a life of his own. Exploring the cultural impact along with his love for Naoto that stems from a depth of recognizing a child that was discarded whereas, Isamu at least had his father. So, he did take on the moniker of being a guard dog in a way. Then having him work at Kyoto Tech, while being an adrenaline junkie was just the fun part, his kind nature stems from seeing such horrors constantly while refusing to budge on his compassion or empathy. It does not make him weak, this is very much, the good do not die young while going against the whole narrative as such that the story tells. Personally, it's mostly to defy that logic, Isamu faces his own trials && fears, Shibuya impacting him greatly as he watches Naoto slip away mentally. It's to balance the constant onslaught we continue to see of despair, sorrow, or tragedy. After awhile, it becomes rather stagnant even tedious as a reader or recognizable in pattern. Thus, the light he shines gives unto the immense horrors while allowing some hope to live.
