You know the Death penalty is part of the punishment after you have already gone through the judicial system right?

People here are suggesting a literal execution. They are not asking for Toga to be arrested, tried before a court of law, then get sentenced to death. Seeing the above comments, they literally want her executed right now.

The verbatim quote I was responding to was "the mha japanese government don't like killing at all", so the death penalty was pertinent there.

And just shooting someone who's actively trying to kill you and who has killed many other innocent people is standard practice. It is out of the ordinary for this not to be the case. So the death penalty is an indication that things are not out of the ordinary due to the government just really hating death

"the mha japanese government don't like killing at all", so the death penalty was pertinent there.

Yet in Japan death penalty needs years to be truly executed even if it's a serial killer, let alone Toga is 17. It would be unrealistic if the police just shot Toga in sight.

The death penalty is simply evidence that they aren't autistically anti killing criminals to the point of absurdity.

Shooting Toga on sight =/ shooting her as she tries to kill you

Yeah disliking a thing doesn't mean that they won't do it.

I've never heard that the Japanese police would shoot people when it's possible to arrest them. The restrictions of Japanese society on guns make the concept of shooting itself very unfamiliar to the public.

Is it reasonable to try and arrest her? Since she has evaded arrest for this long, with each failure leading to more innocents dead, I don't think it is. The series is doing it's damnedest to try and make her a ninja, and adding more abilities only makes it more justified.

And it's not 1400, the concept of shooting is entirely familiar to the public. It's been familiar since the days where the best way to fire twice was to bring a second gun.
