#the wdo definitely isnt innocent is all i can say for certain

[yakool-foolio]

Hang on, regarding your latest post (the moral spectrum with the NDA) what did you mean by the WDO’s corruption?

This goes into some speculative territory since a lot of what's known about the WDO is hearsay and extensions of what the Master Detectives are like. While the WDO may not be as corrupt as the UG or Amaterasu Corp, there's definitely some concerning things going on with how they obtain detectives and handle them.

Since Fortes are most likely rare, judging by the 1,000 (most likely less now after the Express Massacres killed a chunk of them ((and we'll get to that in a bit))) Master Detectives employed at the WDO currently, which is pretty darn small for an international operation. It can be assumed that almost everyone with supernatural powers is taken to work in the organization. Some people may make the the conscious decision to join the WDO, but it's also plausible that there are people who are forced into the program against their will. Vivia can be considered an example of this, given his aversion to the truth and wishing to quit detective work when leaving Kanai Ward (Fubuki was also sent to work at the WDO as soon as they found out about her powers, most likely without her consent).

It doesn't help that the WDO's creed is, in the bluntest way possible, heartless. It says to discard all emotion in order to reach a perfection solution through a perfect deduction. It basically states 'fuck your emotions, solve the mystery, that's it' (this also made me realize how ironic it is that when Vivia silently walked away from the group as they were crying over Yakou's death, Desuhiko called him a heartless robot. But only a few days ago, Desuhiko recited that creed to discard his emotions when solving the theatre case. Desuhiko didn't know what Yakou did at that moment, but it's a bit of dramatic irony for the aftermath.). This creed has been in motion long before Yuma became Number One (and the WDO putting a very young adult in charge of a whole organization is really rough), as it's the same creed that Mitsume follows in the prequel story. It's safe to say it's something that's been established in the WDO's history for decades, an order ingrained into their teachings for who knows how long.

As for the Amaterasu Express Massacres, since the dispatching and arrivals took place over what seems to be a few days, 2-3 at the very least... how the fuck did the WDO not catch on to the trains being death traps once the first few trains arrived with one or no survivors? They should've been able to call off the last trains and send them back before any more deaths occurred, but nope! All the trains were sent in regardless of the many deaths caused partially by their carelessness.

This line especially irks me. They willingly sent these detectives to their deaths expecting them to come out of the slaughter alive. They didn't care who lived or died as long as some made it out. All those poor detectives who were murdered along the way meant nothing other than a number to them. They tossed aside their emotion, their fear for these detectives' precious lives, all for the sake of solving a mystery.
