wheres that post that talked ab vash’s conscious refusal to kill despite his desire to do so several times throughout the manga . it was such a good read on his deliberate commitment to pacifism and how its like .. smth he actively works towards as opposed to it being some inherent quality of his

#SOMEONEEE TALKED AB IT I REMEMBER IT #smth i really enjoy abt vash .. vashie ..#not to be a hater but it bothers me when ppl characterize him as thjs like . entirely good and moral entity #as opposed 2 a man formed by his own mistakes and shortcomings #a guy w his own vices comparable to wolfwood ..#vash #trigun #you rmbr that chapter like .. early on in max where the father wanted to kill the guy who murdered his daughter #and vash struggles w the decision of .do i let this guy die or do i let him live despite the harm hes caused #and he lets him LIVE !!! i was genuinely so frustrated / upset w him but i enjoyed that u were meant to feel that dissatisfaction #or so i hope HELPP . bc it shows that pacifism isnt a victimless ideology either .. n that its not some save-all method like ww pointed out #maybe pacifism is the wrong ism to apply 2 that idk idc to be accurate but ykwim #though . 2 clarify. i have a lot of gripes with how content was handled in that chapter and the concluding tone #diff discussion though .. hrmm ..
