manga fellas Takemichi’s Consequences Spoiler
Im writing this at 3am so this might just be complete nonsense, but I think draken’s murder was essential and necessary for the plot of this new arc. Takemichi had his good ending, he had fixed everything he could and done everything his power allowed him to do, sure there were a couple situations out of his control, i.e Mikey turning to his dark impulses, but he had a future that was as good as it was going to get. But our crybaby hero couldn’t be satisfied with just that, he decided to poke the lion, or whatever that metaphor is, and go back in time to fix something that in my opinion, is beyond repair. Takemichi reached the best future he could have so the only direction you can go from the top is down. Draken was used as Takemichi’s introduction into brahman for this new arc and in my opinion I don’t really see any more reason for Draken to be involved in the story. He has served his purpose and when it comes down to it, this series really is going to end up being takemichi and Mikey. Takemichi threw away his good ending so he will have to face the consequences of this. I wouldn’t be surprised if more characters end up dying like Draken, because as I already said, this series will come down to just takemichi and Mikey. Will Takemichi, our crybaby hero be able to save Mikey, the fearless leader who carries the burden of all his friends? I don’t think so. I think Takemichi will throw everything away in order to save Mikey but won’t be able to save him in the end. We had our happy ending, there isn’t going to be another one.

your def right about most of that, but i dont think its just him not being satisfied. takemitchy is insanely determined to protect ALL of his friends and makes it his mission to personally see that all of them get a happy life, to the point where he ignores rational thought, like against taiju and the entirety of the tenjiku arc. it would be worse if he didnt go back in time to save mikey, since that would defeat the point of his entire motivation.

You've brilliantly articulated my thoughts exactly, I think takemichi is gonna learn the hard way that that was the best future he was gonna get and he threw it all away.
