Actually in the manga? He was there. He just disarmed Oda and sees Kiriyama shoot him down, barely escaping himself. So yes, he should logically know.... agree with the other removed examples btw though

Yumiko and Yukiko recognized the risk of death in their plan but went along with it because they didn't want to kill anyone and they believed there was no point to surviving towards the end of the game as the 24 hour time limit would just kill them all anyways.


* Yumiko and Yukiko are two best friends and do not want to fight. Thinking that the others are just as scared as they are, proceed to head to an observation plateau and shout into a megaphone ''where they are, that they do not want to fight and everyone should proceed to this place to join them''.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Those two to realize what an idiotic idea that is and either drop the plan immediately or proceed to shout out and then hide themselves, to be safe.\\
'''Instead:''' They remain where they are and get blasted by a nice big volley of Kiriyama's sub-machine gun and their dying screams are heard through the megaphone.\\
'''Also:''' Shogo actually fired two warning shots into the air, to try to make them ''realize'' what a terrible idea that is and have them run away to safety, which also put himself, Shuuya and Noriko in danger. And yet those two '''still''' remained where they were, shouting more into the megaphone how they do not want to fight. Also, what goes up must come down, so Shogo could have inadvertently shot someone when the bullets fell back to earth.

The novel notes that Mitsuko is good at acting and charming people, especially men, so this isn't really an idiot moment for Tadakatsu as much as it is just Mitsuko being good at what she does.
