And we've also seen how much this has effed him (and what's important to him) up. For me this was the trajectory that the ME specials took and it ended at this tipping point here:
Without even acknowledging the angry/dangerous force he's become, in anime proper he's just become Satoshi's...
I don't often disagree with you Tsutarja...
Why do you (and many others) feel the need to make excuses for lazy writing? This and Alan's badge quest are two examples of things discussed in this thread which just don't make sense within the anime, but for some reason people feel the need to...
Why the fuck would she smile at him - he's treated her like shit and she's currently trapped by her comatose Harimaron's side. The narrative is lazy. There is no deeper explanation.
