I see what author wanted to do with Aqua's death, but honestly... Aqua himself didn't actually want to die... his death was painful and he wanted to live... the reasoning why he did die in the end is not enough for me to proove that it was worth for the plot. It's just pitiful and sad that Aqua's end came to that..
This! When I read and saw his thoughts the second he got thrown and panicked that somehow he doesn't want to die and with no choice left, he decided to accept his fate, like???? It felt forceful, gosh.
