| 5 | But Akagi isn't a normal person. He knows he has PlotArmor--not just of the normal protagonist kind, but the extra strength of the knowledge that he appears in ''Manga/TenTheBlessedWayOfTheNiceGuy'' alive and well. He is indeed a genius player of the highest caliber, but he is willing and able to take the seemingly insane risks he does because he's seen all the way past the Fourth Wall and keeps himself entertained by watching how the events unfold before him. His laughter, then, isn't so much aimed at his opponents, but rather at the author, as if silently challenging him: "Well? How do you plan on getting me out of ''this'' mess?" |
