It is hilarious that this group decided to participate in these cage matches at all, because THEY ARE THE RANGE TEAM!!

This group consists entirely of long range fighters, and the other groups at this point consistent entirely of close combat fighters.

Kiro fights primarily using explosives. Ogata is deadly ONLY IF he's over 300 meters away. He has a zero win track record in close combat. He's never even been able to punch someone out. Even Asirpa primarily uses archery.

This scene in the anime adds a lot of interesting stuff that wasn't in the manga.....

Ogata and Yuusaku goes to a brothel.

Ogata brings up the superstition in the army that virgins cannot be hit by bullets that Yuusaku is a virgin.

Yuusaku looks uncomfortable...

Ogata then points out that Flag Bearers have the highest death rate in the army, even more than regular soldiers, and that Yuusaku's job is to run to the enemy side totally unarmed and be the first to breach their ranks.

Yuusaku looks uncomfortable and sad....

He refuses to fuck the prostitutes and leaves.

Tsurumi comes in, and he plants the idea that this must be due to Yuusaku's virtue.

It must be because his highborn-legitimate-heir blood is so much better yours, Ogata. That's why he rejected you. He's just so much better. Pure Saint Yuusaku is made of different stuff, he's got virtue flowing through his veins.... unlike you, Ogata.

So this makes Ogata determine to prove him wrong....

And of course he does....

But the thing is, we don't know Yuusaku's actual reason.

Virtue is just speculation on Tsurumi's part as a means to manipulate Ogata......

But like..... When he's not being used to manipulate Ogata, Yuusaku is a person.

Like I actually wonder if his actual reason was self-preservation or fear instead.

Yuusaku has to lead the charge while being shot at. He can't show any signs of fear and need to motivate the men. He needs to keep running forward as the men right next to him are torn to shreds by artillery fire, and he has to stay cheerful and confident.

Ogata has become good at suppressing his guilt, but Yuusaku is just as good at suppressing his emotions if not more so.

He suppresses fear.....

(When not actively charging at the enemy, he has to remain cheerful confident and enthusiastic at all times. He's the mascot and he needs to motivate the men. So even when he's just chilling out at the military base, he still needs to be enthusiastic, happy about the war.

Yuusaku himself is probably a mess under his cheerful mask, in the same way that Ogata is a mess under his emotionless mask. BTW)

Like guys.......

Do you ever think about this 21-year-old kid trying to psych himself up and take deep breaths in his tent before picking up the flag and putting on his cheerful face?

He is the obligatory product of an arranged marriage.... trapped by the weight of expectations from a long line of military commanders.

Every week he has to charge head on into gunfire, cheerfully motivating others, while the men right next to him are getting blown up into meat bits.

I wonder if he's on drugs. Takes something to calm down before picking up the flag.

He has no armor, no bulletproof vest and no gun. He's not even allowed to draw his sword to defend himself. He can't stop being the flag bearer because of his father.

The only thing keeping him safe is the idea that virgins are immune to gunfire..... he literally doesn't have anything else.

So....I wonder if he refused to lose his virginity because it was the only thing he had.

Even if it was obviously bullshit superstition, he might have wanted it to be true.....at least a little...

I wonder if anyone has explored the idea that Yuusaku might feel as cursed with his birth as Ogata does.
