I’m really confused by all this “Makoto defends cops” argument. Makoto does acknowledge that there’s corruption in the police force. Part of her struggle in her arc was that she can’t help but acknowledge that the Phantom Theives were justified and necessary in stopping Kamoshida and wanted them to prove that they’re good by stopping Kaneshiro, and states in her Rank 10 that she aims to become police commissioner specifically to combat corruption. Where did this argument even come from?
