#fukusada is great because sadakiyo quite literally ties his self-perception to his perception of friend

sadakiyo is my favourite insane weirdo. his weirdness has layers. at first it’s like “oh. he talks to people who aren’t there, lives in a childhood wonderland and gets hysterical about his car getting wet in the rain”, then, a couple of chapters later, you go “noooooooo he’s actually so sweet and sad and he’s genuinely trying his best despite having been abused for most of his life, he’s not weird at all”, and then it’s “oh. his moral dilemma is him wondering whether a dictator who (by sadakiyo’s own admission) has killed millions of people is good or bad”.
