>>38725587>applying a westerner's interpretation of a Japanese seriesThat's why you're wrong - all this shit's backed up if you understand Japanese culture and the language, it's normal leaps of progression. Every little bit in-game that ever made you go "but why is that like that, that's fucking stupid" made sense to the Japanese kid the same age as you playing through the same game.
