im Also seeing a lot of people conplaining about how obvious baals staged thing was and like. its obvious to US bc the entire manga we've seen baal be Evil and Have Ulterior Motives so its obvious but its not obvious to the characters themselves bc why would it? they have no reason to suspect and those who do wouldnt be able to call it out bc the vast majority took it at face value bc (surprise surprise) demons dont actually react the same way people irl do and its been established they like cool and strong people
#also the whole thing took 13 fucking seconds#the only reason why IRUMA reacted was bc hes a human with zero self preservation skills and also (as it said) has had multiple moments where#hes been caught off guard and nearly paid for it#he saw someone face (supposed) death and was like holy shit thats just like me and reacted accordingly bc iruma DOES have a fast reaction ti#time and azz backed him up immediatey bc hes always atuned to iruma and was also right next to him#and ALSO had several moments in the last year where he wasnt fast enough to react when someone (iruma) was in danger#and he saw iruma turn back to help and was like yeah i need to back him up OBVIOUSLY bc azzs first priority is always going to be iruma#everyone else saw the giant fuck off demon and was like holy shit run away bc they werent expecting it and have no prior experience to react#to something unexpected anyways#no one saw iruma (as far as we know) fire the shot they just saw the barrier MAYBE and definitely saw baal obliterate the demon#and even then the princess likely only saw BAAL save her bc he was right in front of her and was like omg#and presented baal as the savior and since her word is as good as the truth everyone else saw that and was like omg hero#and nobody would suspect it was staged anyways despite the suspicious timing of baals speech about the demon king bc he was bringing up vali#valid points and behemot was missing for a while and also june 13th was wstablished as a day of betrayal#so like obvious scapegoat and also conveniently proves baals point#like it was very well thought out and im SO MAD about it you have no idea but its not unreasonable 😭#michi tag#aorry im having So Many thoughts rn lmao
