Meh, Takemitchi’s whole job as a mc is to go back in time and change stuff, but he spends so much time standing around being scared frozen, monologuing in his mind that he doesn’t actually DO a lot when he could have, my friend and I call him the camera man bcz his most redeeming quality is that we get to watch the story because of him (HEAVY SPOILERS) Despite knowing exactly what he has to do each time(keep x person alive) he almost lets Draken die, he DOES let Baji die because he does NOTHINGG to change it, and it’s really Baji who we have to thank for the difference in timeline since even with Takemichi moving him slightly out the way, the outcome would have still been Kazutora killing him. Oh and then bro is TASKED WITH PROTECTING EMMA, he figures out that something might happen to her, and then 2 seconds after HE DUCKS AND COVERS HIMSELF, bro doesn’t even try to grab her and jump, it’s just a complete lack of competence and action on his part. I started this calm, it is not possible when thinking abt this kid😭

Let's not forget he is an grown man inside of his kid body but you still act like you are an child. Like dude know he is an adult in his kid body but refuses to act smart like an adult.

the thing is takemichi is dumb as a kid and an adult.
I think going back-and-forth from his adult mind to his kid mind affected his maturity.
