"Izumo really changed"

A post about a subtle development of a side character in DaiRugger XV named Izumo Tatsuo.

In the very beginning Izumo is shown to have a very romantic side to him. His idealism painted his world views and his actions. Here are some examples of the dialogue I was able to find that support this.

Here, we have Izumo responding negatively to Dr Search telling him their efforts fighting over a planet were worthless. And a little lower is him responding negatively to the food being spent on a PoW. At this point his black and white thinking influenced by Earth's encounters with the Galveston Empire have painted a picture in his brain where all Galveston soldiers are at fault for what happened. And to him he is justified in his distrust.

When Izumo finally begins to understand the grey areas presented by the conflict and he makes up with Sim his drive doesn't go away. Moreover the newfound perspective gives him even more drive to pursue his dreams of an ideal future for everyone.

And then Sim meets a terrible fate.

And after this happens we get our first substantial Izumo moment in episode 20 where he tells Haruka off for being naive and optimistic. The change in the attitude is noted by Patty.

ln the same episode we get another out of character dialogue bit from Izumo, now with Walter.

And here's the last (for this post) instance of Izumo being called out on his lack of romance.

Can you really blame the guy when he watched his alien bf die right in front of him?

This was one of the last things I wrote for my old blog.  Back then, as a Wiccan-in-training, I often felt confused when elders would tell me to do my own research, only to turn around and tell me my findings were irrelevant when my research contradicted their teachings. I learned a lot of great things from them...and some bad, too. I learned that narratives about virgin goddess brides and sacred marriages were being used as recruitment tools for predatory men within the Craft, to weed out the more incredulous students. I saw people (women, children, men) get hurt because of that. I saw that those men had been planning to hurt me, too. When they laughed at my theorizing, it was because I saw through them without even realizing. My path, my power, my person? All nothing but a joke to them.  When I took a step back and asked myself what the common people in Britain and Ireland do to mark the rites of spring, many things stood out to me. I saw communities instead of enclaves; happiness, normalcy. I saw things that would be forbidden in a Wiccan setting: men and boys dressed as girls, girls dressed as boys and men. I saw girls being acknowledged without forcing them to grow up. I saw women taking control of customs and their preservation.  And I, too...wish to preserve such things. Against the dark. ❀
