also lol @ the implication that rickert looked back and put 2 and 2 together wrt the assassinations, what with calling griffith kind of shady
idk if i like that. on the one hand it makes sense and it’s a good look for rickert, on the other hand the whole point of griffith hiding it was that the hawks wouldn’t know, so if a dumb kid figured it out why were the rest of the hawks so naive
buuuut then again this is after rickert learned that griffith sacrificed his friends so the rose coloured glasses kind of came off. so i could buy the hawks being willfully blind bc they admired griffith so much.
BUT then the question is why did all the nobles who didn’t give a fuck about griffith not notice.
anyway whatever it doesn’t really matter i guess. pluuuuuus this isn’t the official translation anymore so one wonders if ‘shady’ and ‘scheming perfectionist’ might be language choices affected by the fandom’s popular view of griff. tho the meaning is p straightforward even if the wording changes so that prob doesn’t make much difference anyway.
