Chekhov’s gun is the idea that if a gun is introduced in passing in the early parts of a story, it should be fired at some point before the story ends. In this case, it is a reverse where there was no explanation for the weapon existing before it was used.

Ah, the classic plot device “wait, when did Chekhov get a gun?”

Ah yes, the ice cube water sword

The best line on there is “fully grown at 10, keeps growing anyway.” What a line

Ah machine translated, so any coins spent on this novel aren’t going to actual people translating? Hmmm

It requires iron parts and he would likely need a smithy for that

People have different tastes than you. Your tastes don’t have to be a set standard.

Because he should realize he can just talk to his parents about feeling they don’t love him even when he does everything they ask of him. He has become bitter and angry over a problem that might be addressed with a simple conversation. As far as the story has shown, he has not made a single attempt at fixing issues and instead continues destructive actions. Also, children can figure all this out themselves, it is not unrealistic to expect this in a story. I did this in my life and ended up just seeking self-validation instead of parental love, not great but better than destroying the people around you.

What?! He can breath in and breathe out. How does he have two incredible powers like that

The crime they will try to arrest him for later is not being Chinese, the punishment is social death
