Reader’s Question:
I have a question about the anime “Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!” What is the main reason the protagonist fights and disguises himself as John Smith? Please avoid any spoilers from the manga!
Exploring the World of “Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!”
So, I recently dove into the anime “Kage
no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!” and let me tell you, it’s been quite the ride! The protagonist, Shido, really caught my attention with his quirky motivations. He disguises himself as John Smith, which at first seemed a bit odd, right? But as I read more, I started to appreciate the layers behind his character. Shido isn’t just about fighting; he’s all about the thrill of being a shadowy figure in a world filled with chaos. He wants to embody the coolness of a hidden power—kind of like that mysterious guy in a movie who always has a plan, you know? It’s like when you’re playing a video game and you just want to dress up your character in the coolest gear, even if it doesn’t always make sense in the storyline. That’s kind of what Shido is doing with his John Smith persona. It’s all about the roleplay and the fun of being a “shadow ruler” while having some laughs along the way.
A Little Reflection on Roleplay
I remember a time when I tried to roleplay as my favorite character from a show during a Halloween party. I put on this ridiculous wig and an overly dramatic costume, thinking I’d totally nail it. But you know what? I ended up being the punchline of the night when someone pointed out that my wig looked more like a bird’s nest! I laughed it off, and it turned into one of those hilarious moments that made the night unforgettable. Just like Shido, I was in it for the fun and the experience, not necessarily for the perfection of it. It’s these little imperfections that often make our adventures more memorable. So, while Shido is out there pretending to betray his friends only to save them later—classic protagonist move!—I’m reminded of how much fun it is to embrace our quirks and dive into these fantastical roles, whether it’s in anime, games, or our everyday lives. I’d love to hear your thoughts! Have you ever dressed up or acted like a character from a show or game? What was your experience like? Share your stories or tips in the comments!
