I do wish Lloyd showed more agency instead of frolicking in the water before actually facing Pazuzu.

I was expecting him to at least look like he cared about Sylpha getting beaten up, but I suppose not. Kinda disappointed given how much she cares about him

The kid is a straight out psychopath. Only reason he isn't experimenting on humans is it would end up interfering with his magic research if found out.

You're missing something: he wasn't worried because nothing happened. Those two were never in any actual danger. And if you say he should be worrying about them being in pain: this dude sticks his fingers in deadly magic to see what kind of pain it gives. Hell, they didn't explain this in the anime, but the reason he died wasn't because some noble was being a dick. He purposefully antagonized the noble so he could see what it felt like to die from magic. Dude's NUTS.

Holy shit, dude's NUTS, i had thought it was just some noble being a dick, but damn man, so he was nuts from the start.

Yea, I didn't feel very good about that.

The way I justify it: he knows his abilities and knew she was never in danger

But they should at least have made some sort of mention of him disliking what the demon was doing to everyone

He didn’t even mention his own brother, albeit he was in less immediate danger

That's how I'd justify it too, but he really should have done...something...anything.

  • He could have asked Grim to do something.
  • He could have used his clone to do something.
  • He could have cast a spell to catch Sylpha while she was falling. Recall that she was just coughing up blood and then fell into the water unconscious...that can't be good no matter how strong or durable Sylpha is.

We're talking about a guy who was willing to die to experience fire magic, who'd shred his own fingers to feel Grimoire's magic. His sense of danger, pain, or urgency is clearly out of sync. With his powers, he'd probably be able to spam Ctrl Z on any non-lethal damages. At the very least, he does care enough to step in when they've very clearly lost the battle.

Nah, bois a goddamn psychopath. Like a genuine fucking nutjob.

And didn't he heal everyone at the end, because I seen green magic emanating from his hands onto one of the knights post fight

Him just splashing around in the background like a little kid, I laughed pretty hard

u/Roeclean https://anilist.co/user/Roeclean May 22 '24

Nah, I feel like it makes sense, due to how much of a hard time Sylpha gives him
