#he could make the same leaps as shuichi theoretically. solve the same cases

[fagtainsparklez]

one thing about me is that i’m ALWAYS thinking about chapter 4 kokichi ouma

#icarus speaks #dangantag #like i’m always thinking about him in general #but chapter four SPECIFICALLY #like GOD……. #he knows if he doesn’t do something he’ll die #he knows if he doesn’t do something everyone will die #because shuichi is smart. but miu was smarter. there was no way to have uncovered ANY of that had she succeeded #and he knows he can’t stop her. she wants out. she won’t listen to him #if she’s not able to kill him. she’ll find someone else. she’ll find another scenario #and he can’t TELL most of them. because someone has to stop her #but half the cast wants him dead. maki would’ve taken him out herself #the only other person that would’ve both believed and helped him would likely be shuichi #but it can’t be shuichi. because this ends with two people dead. and if shuichi dies then they’re all fucked #he could make the same leaps as shuichi theoretically. solve the same cases #but no one would listen. not like they listen to shuichi #and GOD. speaking of which #the way he reacts to shuichi’s lie. it haunts me so much #and it makes sense! he’s already so angry. so lost. there’s so much going on and going wrong #shuichi lies to protect people and discover the truth and he’s beloved #kokichi does the same and he’s a villain #and YEAH obviously that’s not the full story. there are other factors. #but like. the THEMES. the PAIN. the spiral it leads kokichi down #doubling down on his lies and charade and cements his plan to sacrifice himself #slash become the ‘mastermind’ #i hate lying purple assholes why do they do this to my brain
