Coda to ‘Garou and the futility of heroism’
Yes, I did say that I had a lot of thoughts still. One factor that’s right on show but I don’t see anyone consider is the context in which Garou came of age in.
Garou has been attending Bang’s dojo for a long time, way before City Z became the shit pit it is now.
If Bang’s dojo were in City G, where things are kept safe by a couple of low-class heroes, he would not have had the opportunity to see and question the effect of heroism. The progressively worsening situation would have been something happening far away, to other people.
Being in City Z means that literally one month to the next, Garou has seen things get markedly worse and that despite City Z having the highest concentration of heroes we know of. He’s seen his mentor go and fight and go and fight and for every monster he slays, seemingly two spring up in its place. Garou has seen the city become partially uninhabitable, has seen gangs of criminals take advantage of the instability and move in, has made the link that come to that, ‘regular’ people are no great shakes either.
That’s the environment in which he started to ask himself if this is *it*, if this is all heroism can be about. And as he stands on the cusp of adulthood trying to decide what impact he wants to have on the world, he’s looked at the world of heroes and decided that no, he’s going to do something different.
We always like to think that a soft heart is necessarily a gentle one. ONE has shown that under the right circumstances, a soft heart can be exceedingly dangerous.
