I don’t think you understand how much stronger Shukai Shin is than Sanyou Shin. It was a miracle Sanyou Shin survived even one of Renpa’s blows, let alone two. Years later Shin is fighting equally with multiple guys directly compared to Renpa.
Let me ask you this: do you think Rinko can fight Renpa for any meaningful length of time? Because the Shin that Garyuu thrashed can.
Correct, Renpa did not need martial subordinates. While Rinshoujou did need them. I don’t see how you guys don’t see how this makes Garyuu’s role as a martial commander even more vital than Renpa’s martial commanders.
No, I showed you Garyuu leading from the front and so did
@Owl Ki . Literally we have multiple instances of Garyuu leading from the front and personally slaying enemies himself. We don’t have a single instance of Denrimi or Ryuukoku fighting at the front.
Maybe for Ryuuukoku we might I don’t remember.
Being a tactician is not his primary role. Rinshoujou himself was a tactician, Rinshoujou didn’t need any more tacticians. You know what Rinshoujou did need?
He needed weighty warriors since he himself couldn’t do that. And thus this was the explicit role Garyuu served.
This quote doesn’t say “excluding Chougaryuu, who was his shield and also primarily a tactician, the Ten Heroes were all martial generals.” No, it simply says that all Ten of them were warriors.
Since that is what Rinshoujou needed.
You really don’t seem to understand how much stronger Shukai Shin is than Sanyou Shin lol. Alright, here is Sanyou Shin:
This is Shukai Shin:
This is Sanyou Shin:
This is Shukai Shin:
Shukai Shin was fighting equally with characters who would, worst case scenario, low diff Sanyou Shin.
And don’t make me repost the half dozen pages of Garyuu beating Shukai Shin’s ass. “Oh Shukai Shin beat Garyuu in less than a day” Shukai Shin would beat Sanyou Shin in less than a minute, literally no clue why yall think Sanyou Shin belongs within a country mile of the characters we are discussing here.
