Tsukasa is actually a shit villain.(No Manga Spoilers)

What is the question exactly? Tsukasa knew Senku could reinvent the guns. That's why he 'killed' Senku.
And he thought the older people are greedy, selfish idiots because of the concept of personnal property.
He wanted to create a new society where personnal property doesn't exist. So the younglings stay pure.

But then again,he should realize the society wouldn't able to progress if old and young ones don't cooperate and he was randomly destroying the stones without even knowing or even meeting them.That's actually dumb.

ktg said:

He want them to be able to cooperate, but he thinks the old society's adults are rotten, so doesn't want to cooperate with them or he thinks they cannot cooperate with them.

He clearly wants a new society with adults too but without the greed.

Tsukasa isn’t a villain tho...he’s just a character meant to be the antagonist until the world setting is established so the series can move onto the real plot.

Now I haven't read the Manga so no spoilers please.
I'm actually surprised no one has called out to this.My main problem is he is actually very dumb.He has seen science inventions before that incident happened and he knows Senku is a genius but he still wants Senku to subject to him.I was actually laughing at this.Why didn't he calculate the possibility that if Senku reinvents a full fledged gun,Tsukasa's army is pretty much over?Also why doesn't he realize that old and young HAVE to co exist together in order for the society to progress?It's because of old people that the youngsters exist.He really said he just wants to revive only the young ones but all you can see in the army are old bums.
I just don't understand why the author even considered him to be the villain.
If you see yourself as dumb,just look at Tsukasa.

Scordolo said:

You are clearly ignoring my point.The way he is destroying random stones when he haven't even met them is pretty pointless.

But he beleived senku was dead ... Also making a gun really isn't that easy, even for a genius😅.

The idea of telling a story with him as an extreme idealised seems fairly logical to me. He's meant to be a person and young people espically don't always act on what's practical. I amment really seeing what your getting at👍.

Scordolo said:

A question.did he get proper education?Or was he just focused on fighting?

ktg said:

He thinks the pointless thing is to revive them and talk to them first. He thinks EVERY adults are rotten.

momentie said:


Sorry? He's a highschool kid, I'm not sure how to answer that😅. If your suggesting his being an idealist is invalid because he's not educted then your being a bit silly. The point of young idealists is that their impractical, world peace and equality is a nice idea, anyone can have regardless of education or background but isn't particularly easy to achieve.

Scordolo said:

Similar to Light where he also thinks every Criminal are bad people which is wrong but in Light's case his execution and plans are more interesting and his actions HAVE HUGE CONSEQUENCES but in Tsukasa's case his actions have literally no consequences at all and will be saved by asspulls.

Hmm,yeah I was pretty much in the wrong here.

How is tsukasa dumb? He’s the second smartest person alive imo. He knows if senku can obtain gun powder then he has no defense against that, which is why he tried to kill senku. Even after killing senku he was smart enough to think if the possibility that somehow senku survived his broken neck, so he sent gen and hyoga with his team to scout the village for senku. He also believed senku only knew of the bat guano cave as a source of nitric acid, so tsukasa kept it guarded 24/7. Tsukasa also formulated a great army with his interpersonal skills, which no dumb person would be able to do. He obviously knows that young people become old, but his philosophy centers around the idea that the young generation are full of new ideas and righteous morals. The older generation was corrupted by previous generations teachings and do not have a righteous moral compass according to him. He simply wants to rewrite society to be less authoritative and judge mental, not kill all old people. He was a really well thought out character, and isn’t a villain in the slightest. Just the antagonist of the story, the opposite of the protagonist, senku’s, views.

yeah it was a little pointless killing old people in stone, I think his reasoning behind it might have been so they never get revived incase senku did somehow survive his broken neck, or if a person in his army wanted to revive elders, I don’t think he explained exactly why he did it, but He definitely didn’t enjoy doing it based off of how he told senku that he remembered every single person he broke/killed.
