Fates as a whole is pretty lazy, but Revelation is just terrible and clearly rushed Then in the story we have things like(off the top of my head)

The structure is there, others in this thread have given the reasoning behind the suicide. But the problem is all that stuff is from reading between the lines and making assumptions. It's not stuff you're going to inherently gather playing the game. If you play birthright first everything just feels random and forced, but if you just rush through conquest/refuse to use flora you aren't going to get all the information necessary to understand it. It's just poor writing. That information should just be in the game(birthright) to begin with. As for the topic at hand, I felt nothing because at that point I clocked out of fate's story(played conquest first) and I was already spoiled of the events.

He gets pretty bulky if you reclass him into oni immediately. 47.85/37.85/11.3 for hp/def/res at 20/20 chieftain is pretty great(at least physically). From what I remember units in lunatic only get in the low 40's for damage, meaning they'll just chip him. It gets even more noticeable if you're crazy enough to give him horse spirit, a +def pairup/tonic/meal or any other defense boost. He actually beats out rinkah who sits at 33.1/35.75/14.95(assuming oni->chieftain).

Can you really say he gets called out on it when pretty much every character in the game keeps letting him know how cool he is, how he can never do wrong and never to change? Like when he's nearly killed by Anthony they give him a speech about how great and trusting corrin is and that's why we love you.

Flora doesn't have a hostile personality.
