pipedreamprayer asked: What do you think of Yusaku telling GO that he couldn’t have won against Revolver without his help – is this a realisation he’s come to recently alongside accepting Soulburner and Blue Maiden and Ghost Girl, or is it something he’d had in mind since it happened?
Well, that’s nothing recent; it is something he said right before Gou got digitized in episode 40:
There certainly is no recent revelation here, nor does it have anything to do with Takeru or the others. Yusaku has always been one to give credit where it’s due (and even when it isn’t); Yusaku’s tendency to feel immense gratitude to people is at the core of his character, due to Ryoken and the Hanoi Project.
Yusaku has been showing an interest in working together, but I would point to that being a matter of practicality rather than any sort of emotional development between him and the others. It’s simply the logical choice.
