I knew it. I knew that Sakura was hated not only for his appearance but also for also “being the reason” his mother died in childbirth. God I wish I wasn’t right.
Why are the kids always being blamed for their mother’s dying in childbirth, why aren’t the fathers blamed for getting the wives pregnant in the first place. It’s not their fault, they didn’t asked to born. There several reasons a woman could die due to childbirth, but like I said it’s not the child’s fault. I bet that if Sakura’s mum was alive she’d probably raise hellfire on everyone that mistreated her son.
I’m guessing the people we saw in the flashback during Kiryuu’s arc was Sakura’s sperm doner, his new wife and kid.
When he needs to, Sakura doesn't hesitate to ask his allies/friends for help. Even during the War, Sakura was the one who took the initiative to ask for their help, even Umemiya didn't want to ask others to help them. Asking for help from others, espsically thoses he can call his friends, is not something Sakura from chapter 1 would do. In fact it was only after the the whole Keel fight, did Sakura learn he can relay on othetr people's help and that he's not alone.
