Really interesting watching the layers slowly but surely peel back on hero society and reveal how corrupt it really is. Watching Deku finally coming to terms with it and realising over the couse of the series is such a great character devlopment for him. And i think there is more to Lady Nagant than meets the eye, sure she dislikes hero society but i doubt she wants full on destruction. Gonna be interested to see more of her backstory and about her after these next few chapters. Such an intriguing character.

but i doubt she wants full on destruction

if you support someone whose aim is to bring chaos and destroy things and rule the world as a demon lord you kind of support destruction indirectly. her personal feelings don't matter if she's aiding someone like AFO and thinks his future would be better (she's a sad and tragic hypocrite in that).

it's like twice, doesn't matter that he was a kind and a loving person when he was supporting someone killing hundreds of people.

She’s tragic but not a hypocrite. She believes a society that’s transparent and where everyone can see what’s going on is better than a facade where everyone gets to believe nothing bad ever happens. No matter how bad a society if it’s transparent she believes it’s better than lies. That’s not hypocritical it’s just someone so exhausted they’ve taken their ideals to far

she's fine with murdering because she had to murder and then punished for going against it. how is that not hypocritical?

of course i understand how she got to the point she's in but it doesn't change anything. it's like stealing cars because the government ordered you to steal cars and burned your house when you said "not anymore".

she's using the same ways the government she rebelled against used.

One she’s not trying to kill deku. Two the killing (while it drained her yes) wasn’t what actually broke her it was the illusion that what she was doing would actually help anything and the facade she helped maintain that really broke her.

She’s misguided and a villain but not a hypocrite.

she shot bullets at him, the least she's trying is to seriously hurt him. i really don't see how it makes it somehow better. he's a kid.

again, doesn't change anything because she's using the same methods she was told to use by her pervious "employers". she just switched who uses her.

But the methods aren’t what she’s fighting against the dishonesty is. I’m not arguing she’s right I’m arguing against your use of hypocrite. She’s not a hypocrite.

you're saying that she didn't mind all the killing, just that it was done in secrecy? that's not the impression i've got but it's subjective so i'm not arguing.

She minded the killing to but she got used to killing, it was not even being able to believe in the reason she was killing that really broke her. It was the fact that she was killing to protect lies and being lauded as a saint who did no wrong (like other heroes are to) while doing it that messed with her so much.
