Dean... Is really starting to despise humanity.

Maybe it's the discoveries he made, maybe is the Hanma blood, but he is starting to hate weaklings with a passion.

He hates his past self because it was weak, that hate is now transferring to any who are similar to his past self.

But... The way he hates weaklings and what his thoughts of them are differentiate extremely from Yuujirou.



The ogre was never weak, even at the moment he was born he was never weak, Dean was, and because of this he wants to take those 'weaklings' out of the pit of shit he believes they are in.



In other words, he's projecting.



I linked the words Human and Limited for a reason.



I love to do these subtle tells of a character's shifting philosophy, they talk slightly differently, act in a certain way toward certain people, and refuse to do certain actions.



Like, Yuujirou's memories were also leaking to Dean but since he didn't remember his past deaths he couldn't put anything together.



Now that he does remember those memories are influencing him, mostly because of everything that happened, otherwise, they wouldn't have much effect.



When he says something he shouldn't know is because lf that.

And as you can see the encounter with Celestia shook him very, very much, his philosophy on life changed rather drastically.

Oh, and don't believe everything he says, although Dean doesn't lie to himself he can simply not understand what he is feeling, or thinking completely.

An* not a, when the next word starts with a vowel. Might wanna edit the chapter title

Thanks

As a fan of Baki... ALL OF THIS IS JUST GREAT, HAHAHA, I JUST FELT THE SAME EXCITEMENT WHEN I SAW THE FIRST FIGHT OF JACK VS BAKI HAHA
Now, I just want to say that this fanfic has already got into my top 5 of fanfics, not only from My Little Pony, but for all the fanfics that I have read.
I would put it at the same level of Invictus in its beginnings.

These types of comments always make me happy

I never made the link between Baki and Hinduism but every character is a rakshasas of some kind. And it looks like Yuujiro want him to turn into one too so he could devour him and get his power. I am guessing that if he can reach enlightenment and become a buddha of some sort he would truly become free. After all being selfish or selfless is being a slave to the self or others so the only choice to be free is to completely detach of earthly matters and ascending to another state of existence becoming a god in truth.

You know, in all the years I've been visiting this site, I've never really used this account to comment or interact with anyone, either to praise or criticize, but you, my friend, you deserve to be the first, what you're creating is simply divine.
