I was kinda hoping he'd flip a shit on his classmates for walking out after five minutes of what they've basically been pushing on him since he was a kid and then having the audacity to call themselves his allies, but no. Spineless dude gotta stay spineless, I guess.
Ah pride, the deadliest of the sins. Got to love it when beggars of the group are choosey, even though they've not contributed. Anyways, this was kind of a mess. Barely got a clue on what was happening.
@leolab How do his classmates push anything on him? It's the teacher and the hero, nobody else, and his classmates are right about the situation. The personas are just self-obsessed assholes that can't stand it when they aren't the center of attention. Defending them here, which is what you're asking for, would be the most spineless, bootlicking action so far in the story. They don't deserve to be catered to.
They could:
1) reverse the roles between the personas and villagers.
2) have villagers pretend to be new or unaccounted for personas.
3) have villagers dress up and act like the resistant personas as "understudy roles" (handler).
@WillTell every each of persona's traits and personalities are obstructing their own POV against the script... while scriptwriter made it with consideration for each personas; he, unfortunately failed to noticed that personas are subjected to a rigid rules of that world and wrote it according to his own POV... every roles are to follow a definition of their roles to A T hence their obssessions and stuck-up attitudes...
tsubasa made it clear enough when she explained it with 'loong(to aru ossan vrmmo reference)/snake-ish' dragon and 'lizard/westernized' dragon...
long story short, its just a matter of POV...
no one to blame, they just follow the rules rigidly... it's just couldn't be helped and inevitable...
sadly, in this story, ryugamine and sato are the real actual MCs as both can somewhat twist and sway that rigid rules...
@digitalromance77 yeah, it's just some stuff in the story that makes me think. The overarching details of what personas are and such. It's hard to explain what you're unsure you don't know.
I'm personally just hoping that he's the "Princess" type. After all, the "Hero" and the "Demon Lord" are fighting over him, and the "Demon Lord" "kidnaps" him all the time.
Nah, I think that the MC is a NPC with ''lore'', you know, the ones who you meet in more that 1 quest/zone... and so little by little you start get attached to them.
@scorpiowolf I'm guessing he's like the Village Elder or the Wiseman. The chief NPC, who's somewhere between a generic background character and one of forefront characters
