Also lets them know their savior isn't totally brutal. Although again...Makoto can go off the reserve sometimes so maybe it'd be better to presume he's always in teacher mode.
Shiki's trying to be positive, but I'm not sure much is going on in these lessons besides pummeling these kids  . I suppose they'll get used to defeat, but that's not necessarily a good thing. In some ways though it can't be helped. It's not like Makoto can apply his method of growth to literally anyone else and he doesn't know the basics enough to really give more theoretical focused lessons. So the best he can do is just pummel these kids, point out what they aren't good at and hope they learn something along the way. Which they certainly might. Not impossible.
A sly Mio would be pretty terrifying  . Thankfully Rona isn't as strong. And she definitely should watch herself since the very not-sly Mio would put her into the ground immediately! |
My understanding is they wouldn't have held their own against Blue Lizard near as well as they did without the training they'd gotten up to that point (even if it still didn't help much).
