Re: 147 OP

[identity profile] vehemence.livejournal.com 2008-06-07 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
The fact that he existed among humans trying to hide his abnormality for as long as he could doesn't justify your previous statement that he thought he could "live in the human world for the rest of his life" out of stupidity. He knew very well that he was just biding his time, especially after he found out about the existence of Mu from Keith. Matsuka wasn't a moron, there was no way for him to know about all the abilities of the Mu like the long lifespan. Until he was confronted with evidence that he was a part of some separate race, Matsuka just thought he was some lone freak of nature with weird powers. He tried to hide himself among humans pre-Keith because what else was there for him to do?

I disagree with you about Matsuka having something like battered wife syndrome, because like you said that would imply his actions are based on hope for his own life getting better. And like I said in my other reply, I don't think Matsuka was hoping for Keith to have a heart out of concern for his own well being; if that were the case-- if his own well being were the influencing factor, then he would never have gone back to save Keith, the only person who had seen through his disguise thus far, from the Mu on Nazca. He would have left Keith there and his problem would have been solved, for the moment at least. That to me is the proof that he believed in Keith for Keith's well being, because he could tell Keith needed someone, and not for his own sake, or else why risk his own well being to do something completely unnecessary and save Keith?

I don't say you're missing something cause you don't like Matsuka. I'm just saying that because I mean, at the very end of the show, Jomy and Keith have both decided that the Mother computer thing needs to be destroyed because they have hope that Mu and humans will be able to work things out on their own, and to live together. This was the very same hope that Matsuka had, which you write off as battered wife syndrome. So by the same logic, Jomy's last words, that people are amazing, and that he believes in them despite everything they have inflicted on him and his people, is also just some battered wife syndrome. And that's just not right at all. The message of the show is hope, and Matsuka embodies that in his own way. You don't have to like him, but I think it's going way overboard to call him stupid, a pussy, and all that other crap.
