And in the second season, Light just didn't care who he used trying to take out M including his own father, traumatizing his mom and sister, using Misa and the other female, and that one guy who was obsessed with him. And when he was found out in the end, he bragged about having a God complex but still thinking he was helping the world by killing people he felt were not worthy. Sorry for the long opinion.

It's not that Gon being a child makes him not realize the hypocrisy. It's that Gon being a child leads him to judge people only by the actions he witnesses or hears them talk about directly. Killua avoided doing any fucked up shit directly in front of Gon for that very reason.

[@HomellAlcautor]

Eren isn't even a hypocrite. He's in a position where he's embraced himself as the bad guy. His conversation with Reiner says it all, where he says that understood and that he's the bad guy now. So why is he on the list? (SPOILERS) Okay, let me clarify why I don't look at Eren as a hypocrite. Because there are some decent reasons. (This goes up to the end of S4 P2) 1. Let's me word this better. From the beginning, Eren sought after one thing, freedom. This is a dream and goal that he shared with Armin and he actively fought for that. Most people are turned off by the fact that he wanted to eradicate Humans, however, this is not much different than his original method to gain freedom, Titans. It's quite literally the same goal: "I won't stop until all Titans on this planet is eradicated." - "I won't stop until all the Humans on this planet is eradicated." He realized that his actual enemies were the Humans, that created the Titans, drove them to the Walls, and actively went to kill both him and his people. A solid reason to switch targets. But the reason why I'm claiming he's no hypocrite is that he never changed his thought process. He sought after freedom and even became a slave and a monster to it. 2. In his discussion with Reiner, he showed the development of understanding of what he became and what it took to gain his freedom. He had the blueprints laid out for that, and he followed it. In his discussion, he would say things like: "I'm the bad guy, just like they say. I just might destroy the world." - "I'm the same as you Reiner." - "You did it to save the world." In this discussion, Eren alludes to the fact that he is willing to destroy the world, and even his friendships to save and free them. Even if he hates it. There is no contradiction in these statements, as he wholeheartedly believes his words and acts on them. Again, he has the same goal and method as before. Nothing changed. 3. Once again, nothing changed. He picked many of the wrong choices, he tried to eradicate the rest of humanity, and he became an overall terrible person by societal standards. But, his actions did not contradict his goals. He allowed his actions to back his words, and the only thing that felt contradictory was his feelings. As he felt regrets. When have you heard of Eren claiming to have moral standards and acting the opposite? The closet was when he was talking to Zeke about Euthanization. But even then, why would he choose to Euthanize the people he wants to save? When Mikasa came to him and told him about his actions and how he couldn't turn back, all he did was stare at her with this cold expression on his face. Edit: Why is Itadori here? 😭 Edit: Hypocrisy - the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform; pretense.

Essentially, hes the reason why Gon is in the journey in the first place and why is he acts the way he does today. And even raised the fox bear cub. That's how much of an impact this left on him. This is in the first chapter of the manga. Plus, the phantom troupe basically genocides an entire minority group whi are hated for their eyes for money. Gon just wanted pay back when Chimera ants admittedly take pleasure in torturing humans before eating them. And from his perspective, the royal guards and the king is no different.

The only time he killed an active criminal was when he took out that guy he saw on TV with the hostages, and the other time was when he killed a dude who was being creepy to a girl on the street which doesn't really make the guy a criminal (and also the level of creepiness differs between the anime and the manga). Outside of that, however, all he did was kill a bunch of cops and investigators (including a despairing fiancee who went all vigilante to get some personal justice), murdered thousands of people who had already been arrested or served their time (with no idea if they had/were serving under false charges or if they had reformed/were in the process of reforming), started dating a girl just to use her as a tool, shortened said girlfriend's life significantly via his plans, forced an actually pretty nice god-like being to commit suicide to save the life of another and domino-effect'd his own dad into the grave with no regrets.

Surprised Naruto isn’t on here. Naruto fought so many people in part one over the whole “it isn’t how you’re born, it’s what you make of yourself,” even though his entire backstory is him having tons of boons.

[@HaissamMouard]

Uhhh did we watch the same Naruto? The same Naruto that wasn't able to control the Nine-Tails and would eventually let it loose if he didn't control it. You do know that Kurama was giving Naruto chakra to weaken the seal right? The same Naruto that was hated by the village for that power to later use it to save it. Sounds like a change in circumstance through effort.

[@DCBiscuit]

@@HaissamMouard Yes, but that’s not my point. Neji and Naruto’s entire fight was centered around the idea that “no one can change their destiny, from the moment you’re born, that is all you ever will be” versus the concept of “you can always change what you become.” Naruto had nothing, yes, but that doesn’t stop that he was born with an inherit advantage over everyone else. It was just a matter of mastering everything inside of himself. I mean, the kid can’t even summon a standard clone and managed to summon at least fifty something shadow clones on his first try. Neji wouldn’t have had the chakra to do that. Naruto was BORN stronger than everyone else.

[@HaissamMouard]

@@DCBiscuit Naruto was also BORN destined to kill Sasuke and repeat the cycle of hatred. Guess what happened. "Who you are" is part of destiny. I never understood the hyper fixation on power. Someone can be disadvantaged in ways other than strength. Like socially. Naruto was hated and isolated by practically everyone. Gaara was going mentally insane. Destiny can impact more than weakness. Gaara was destined to be alone by his tailed beast. Sasuke was destined to never find resolution with Naruto.

[@DCBiscuit]

@@HaissamMouard That has nothing to do with Naruto’s hypocrisy. Neji and Naruto’s entire conflict was centered around Naruto’s ideology of needing to be strong enough to become Hokage, but since he was “destined for failure” as Neji said, he needed to prove that with “his power” he could prove Neji wrong. But it wasn’t his power, he only beat Neji because of the power of the Nine Tails. He proved Neji right because he used Kurama’s power, whether Kurama was only giving it to Naruto to weaken the seal or not doesn’t matter in particular to what I’m talking about.

Yuji can't be a hypocrite. I'm currently on a reread through and there's nothing hypocritical about his killing. Thing is in fiction we just look at killing as just killing as if there's no context to it. If you kill a murderer to stop him from killing you are not on his level ,you are stopping him from killing innocence. Shamans are the last line of defence so if they don't kill everyone will literally die

Lelouch actually has guilt and wants the world to be a better place for everyone while light just wants to make his ideal world for himself and his ego. In other words light is a narcissistic mass murderer who wants to rule the world from the shadows to satisfy his God-complex and lelouch is a guy who believes the world shouldn't be filled with so much suffering and who actually feels remorse for a lot of the things he has to do.
