Yes. Garfield is slightly worse. His stakes are also much higher.
You say that like he stepped in some dog doo. He emanates a magical aura of evil that, as far as we know, he's the only character with that aura that isn't evil. Possibly ever.
For all intents and purposes, they have a magical spell that detects evil, and for whatever reason, that spell keeps detecting Subaru. WE know he's not actually evil, but the spell is telling them that he is, and for them, the spell has never been wrong before.
Correct. I considering knocking someone out and imprisoning someone to be a non-violent alternative to simply killing them. I consider it a non-violent solution that Garfield attempted, instead of simply gutting Subaru in the forest in the first place, which he also could have done, and would have turned out much better for everyone.
Oh sure, you say that after I've done it four times...
