Fun? Is it fun being a party to, or enabling multiple counts of murder, acts of terrorism (Missle attacks, any one?) or tens of thousands of count of false imprisonment and kidnapping (container ships and NEETs)?
Granted, I applaud Number 11/Shiratori for slaughtering rapists and sex offender (I'd call that karmic justice), but not Yusei's (Number 4) murdering innocent civilians on a whim or any of a number of instances where the majority of these D-Bags Behaving Badly act capriciously, selfishly, malevolently or stupidly.
These aren't the actions of saviors--neither is Mr. Outside. Do they actually solve more problems than they cause, or anything for that matter? Is anything resolved by their behavior in the end (regardless of their intentions for good or ill)?
He's (Mr. Outside) being recklessly cavalier with the lives and well-being of a nation for some "fun," or to pass the time. In a word, it's inexcusable and beyond criminally stupid.

Fun? Is it fun being a party to (awful things) |
Well... yes. I think it's safe to assume this guy is not firing on all cylinders, and he's a sick/twisted individual. So yeah, it *is* fun for this person to watch the events unfold.
I never once thought for a single second that the organizer was a good person. I assumed he was a deranged individual with money to spare, who wanted to use people as his pawns.

Ah, I see. I approached Mr. Outside -wrongly it appears- with the false understanding that he was operated from a(n) -albeit misguided- position of goodness -I thought it was some kind of senile dementia- when it appears he was some chaotic neutral nutball--Ok, that's on me.

Views of Mr. Outside will vary according to whether or not you've seen the third movie. He still ends up a bit ambigious but at least he is fleshed out a bit more in Paradise Lost.

Eden of the East is ****ing overrated. Goddamn, it was horrible. Nothing but talking heads and that annoying girl who desperately wanted to get in Takizawa's pants.

Dude, what ISN'T overrated for you? I've looked down your post history and 95% of everything you write is complaining that something is "overrated" or just saying something controversial for the sake of being controversia. Do you have anything ELSE to say?
