i like your reasons for why saihara works in this game, but when you argue that flaws make a character good it doesn't work if they don't have a virtue to balance out. sorry but characters who need to be pulled along by others and who are "weak" are annoying when everyone else is strong -_- if he was a girl i would feel differently. but saying a character is weak and that's why he's good doesn't mean anything because all his relationships with others will be unbalanced. ppl need to give back.

Assuming that you aren’t still the same anon harrassing me once again, I think you must have missed the piece of meta I wrote (here) where I talked about how Saihara does, in fact, give back to the group. In fact, he gives so much through his talent as a SHSL Detective that the rest of the group become overly-reliant on him, something which is lampshaded and addressed by Ouma and Momota both.

Saihara “gives back” in the sense that his virtues are unconventional when compared to your traditional self-insert protagonist. Rather than giving back through traits like optimism, charisma, or a gung-ho attitude, he contributes to the group through his compassion, his unique insight as a detective, and his search for a reason to live.

Saihara’s awareness of his own weaknesses is precisely what makes him want to give back to the group so much, to find something that he can actually do to help everyone else–because he feels like he doesn’t “deserve” the recognition or the praise he gets. In order to try and accept himself a little more, and to make sure that he’s not dragging everyone down, Saihara practically bends over backwards to try and contribute to the group.

Momota himself admits in Chapter 5 that Saihara is the main reason why they all haven’t died yet. As much as Momota himself wanted to play the big hero and be the shounen protagonist of the story, he ultimately accepts that his actions were reckless, and that his blind trust in others was actually a refusal to see the facts. Saihara’s search for the truth, as well as his ability to grasp things from a different perspective than everyone else because he’s a detective, is what kept the group alive in every single school trial–and Momota makes sure to tell him as much before he goes to his execution.

In addition, your comment that you “wouldn’t mind Saihara being weak if he was a girl” ties back to the question I just answered before this, about misogyny. Assuming that “only girls can or should be weak” and “boys shouldn’t show weakness, ever, because it’s annoying/pathetic/etc.” is an outdated mindset that stems from toxic masculinity. I’ve already discussed this in quite a few asks about Saihara, and I suspect you are the same anon, so I won’t bother going into detail.

Saying Saihara “gives nothing back” or that his relationships are “unbalanced” is blatantly untrue and ignores the fact that a huge part of Saihara’s character involves wanting to give back to others as much as possible specifically because he feels undeserving of their attention or recognition. Really, I’d recommend just reading the other meta I wrote, since I went into more detail there.

Anyway, have a nice day anon.
