the most annoying people are people who don’t understand storytelling. they be like “oooo how convenient that this thing happened to the main character in the very beginning”. yeah no shit. that’s why the story begins here
excellent addition to this!!
“light is cocky” ✅ correct observation
“light wouldn’t have gotten caught if he wasn’t cocky” ✅ also correct observation
“light wouldn’t have gotten caught if he wasn’t so cocky, and therefore making him cocky was a bad writing decision” ❌ no. do you hate stories? do you hate when plot happens? because no plot would happen if characters didn’t have defining personality traits that motivate their actions
