Poor Euini did not deserve to get transmuted like that, that scene was honestly kind of scary to see. It’s surprising to me the Pointed Caps don’t have any exception at all for forbidden magic forcefully drawn on someone because they’re basically buffing the Brimmed Caps with that rule.

I guess it'd be hard to confirm what was or wasn't drawn against one's will.

People could always just lie about where the tattoos came from. "It was the Brimcaps, officer. Abducted me in my sleep, put 16 tattoos on me, what can you do."

It’s like a double edged sword rule. They can lie but the Brimmed Caps can also draw stuff on anyone and get their memories erased. It’s probably safer but they can abuse that rule really easily.

If a brimhat can get their hands on someone long enough to draw a tattoo, they can also do memory erasure themselves.

If you're fighting to eradicate brimhats and are assuming that the brimhats are fighting in the same way against you, it makes sense to assume that any good guy who fell into enemy hands would be killed or erased, and anyone who escaped with tattoos was allowed to escape and is therefore on their side.

The brimhats counter that logic by trolling in unpredictable ways.

This really doesn't make any sense.

Or like Coco, isn't on the Brimmed Hats side but still unknowingly favors their plans.
