Comment on [Episode] Shunkashuutou Daikousha: Haru no Mai - Episode 8 discussion

The most likely general reason seems like it would be internal power struggles, though. We’ve already seen the ones at the Spring village, and they probably exist elsewhere as well. Don’t like the current Envoy or their factional relationships? Kill them and take another spin at the roulette wheel. Maybe it’ll come out in your favour this time.

Killing the current Agent will just create another. Seems like a pointless fight where kids die.
Internal struggles make more sense but it’s hard to imagine how heartless one can be to do something like this.

Unfortunately, human beings really can be that heartless (see: all of human history to date). We’re very good at convincing ourselves that people who don’t meet some arbitrary standard are less than human. It all depends on how dark they want to take this.
