I do genuinely think we need a major character death in Mairimashita Iruma-kun. No one important to the story has died so far and I think it would do fucking wonders for Irumaâs character and his motivations. As such I have compiled a list of characters I think couldâor shouldâdie, and why! (When I say should I simply mean it would serve the story well not that I wish them dead)
Sullivan: oh where to begin. The first person to show Iruma genuine love and kindness in his life. He brought Iruma into his home, feed him, clothed him, fucking educated him! Sullivanâs death would be like adding gasoline to the fire that is Irumaâs character. Although I donât wish to see Iruma suffer (Iâm not a sadist after all, unlike all you Kiriwo X Iruma shippers) it would give Iruma quite the motivation to perhaps take up the mantle of Demon King
Opera: ooooo interesting! This one feels the most likely to me. I could see Opera losing their life protecting Iruma which would serve as a very good spark that encourages Iruma to become stronger
Asmodeus/Clara: gods this one would hurt, like really really hurt. But if you ever needed a way to start a dark Iruma revenge arc this would be the way to do it. This one is the one I hope doesnât happen. May it never come to pass
Kiriwo: now this could be fun! A Kiriwo death (more specifically a Kiriwo murder at the hands of Iruma) could be a really good way to show Iruma becoming more demon like. Having his hand forced and killing someone to protect his âselfishâ ambitions and friends.
