Fridge / Marvel Anime: X-Men

• Fridge Logic: So, Yui Sasaki is confronted by the fact that her son Takeo is a Reality Warper. His father, who doesn't know he exists yet, is a powerful telepath who has dedicated his life to helping mutants learn to control their powers and use them safely. So, clearly the best thing to do is to ensure he never finds out about Takeo, make her son erase his existence from the minds of everyone around him, lock him up in a research center out in the middle of nowhere, and start working madly on an "anti-X-Gene retro virus", a process that requires killing who-knows-how-many other mutants to use their tissues to culture it in. Can lean into Idiot Ball or Villain Ball territory.
  • One possible explanation, Jason aka Mastermind may have had something to do with Yui's more erratic decisions and behavior. Though it's hard to tell, considering neither of them reveal exactly when they first started working together.
