Doffy was 2 years older
It might not seem like a lot but it kinda is in your formative years. So he was taught to accept the ways of the celestial dragons for longer before it being taken away
Also eh not really. Most the donquixote were able to even reform and I don’t even think it’s too late for doffy if tsuru helps him
- Mjosgard became better after he visited FMI
- Homing was good hearted but naive
- Rocinante was a all around good sweet guy
- His mom also seemed sweet
Homing instead of correcting all his bad behavior while in Mary geoise instead expected it to fix itself when they went down. Again as good hearted as he was man was naive and irresponsible as fuck
Trebol later coddling doffy’s hate and resentment also just made him worse
Doffy wasn’t born evil to the core. Is he more inclined to become resentful and angry at the world than someone raised the same exact way for the same amount of time? Maybe idk tbh
At the same time he had the potential to be a good guy (and still does imo) if things in his life had went a bit differently
And just to clarify that doesn’t mean Doflamingo or anyone isn’t responsible for that bad actions just because they were dealt a bad hand at life. He still very obviously is
That also doesn’t mean he or anyone deserves forgiveness. It just means things could have been different with better people in his life
