Why though?
I guess the way he acts
His overly dramatic reactions are too much. It’s so overkill.
i feel this sometimes. But thinking further about it, he's quite young and this could be normal to a teenage boy.
This is normal to any teenage boys that haven't fight in his life
It doesn’t matter that he’s a “boy”. I’ve never seen teenagers act petrified every time there’s confrontation, be it verbal or physical. He even reacts that way any time there’s slight tension, thinking that fight MIGHT ensue… Mind you, he chose to attend a school that does nothing but fight.
It has nothing to do with him being a “boy”. It’s not normal behavior unless he has severe PTSD, but if that were the case, he wouldn’t have enrolled into a school that does nothing but fight.
Mind you, he reacts that way anytime there’s a tense moment. He overreacts a lot.
I understand physical fights can be really scary, especially to children and adolescents, but his reactions are just too much. How many more fights does he need to witness and be involved in (of his own accord too) before he relaxes?
Let’s remember he was bullied in middle school. He was never able to stop those bullies, a student from Furin was the one who stood up for him. He’s got enough courage and resolve to attend Furin even though physical confrontations scare him. Just because he has the resolve and is willing to put the work in to get stronger, doesn’t mean he’s suddenly going to be a strong fighter. I get that his reactions might come off as exaggerated, but I think it’s a normal reaction for someone his age. Actually, everyone else is just wild for being able to handle the violence they have to put up with to protect their town and everyone in it. I really do understand your point of view, but Nirei has had a very slow, steady, and very real development.
I know I’m going to get a lot of hate for this… but… I can’t stand Nirei like 70% of the time
