I HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR A WHILE NOW, THANK YOU SO MUCH, I'M SO TIRED OF THE DEFENDERS, OH MY GOSH
I still to this day do NOT understand how people defend Hanako in this scene.
Honestly just this entire scene I found SUPER disturbing and I don't understand how anything defends this...
Everyone's argument is "oh but he loves Nene" or "he's just misunderstood"
Like- tf is there to misunderstand in this??
He tells Nene straight to her face that Aoi died and he DOESN'T CARE.
Nene even felt LIED to bc she thought Hanako and her were meant to be saving Aoi.
And before people say "Hanako didn't sacrifice Aoi!"
Yes that's true but he DELIBERATELY didn't do anything to prevent it and even let it happen on purpose bc it was convenient for him.
Both Hanako AND even the summery of volume 15 paint the picture of Hanako finding this CONVENIENT.
It's his literal JOB to intervene with stuff like this and he doesn't do it bc of his desperation to "fix" Nene's life span-
Even tho it was Nene's BEST FRIEND he didn't care...
But the thing is, is that Hanako does care but he ONLY cares about Nene and even so much so to the expense of even her loved ones
He even shows exactly what he told us in the beginning here...
He's says he "granted your wish" but Nene says it wasn't what she meant...
But it seems really similar almost like exactly what he told us in the beginning?
"You have to pay a suitable price."
A life for a life.
Nothing good comes from supernaturals and to date even now NOTHING good has come from the living interacting with the supernatural.
This scene for me just proves what Teru's been trying to tell us..."there's no such thing as a "good supernatural".
