章 788: Armageddon...

Armageddon…

Seiji had seen movies, manga, anime, and stories, and played games about the topic of the end of the world. He felt that they were quite fun and even immersive.

The potential end of the world was scary, pitiful, tragic, and horrifying… Yet, why was this genre so popular and repeated so much in so many different forms?

Because it was a warning?

No. Although that would be a standard answer, it was too vague. In modern society where even entertainment was a form of business, the answer was far simpler.

As someone who enjoyed this genre himself, Seiji's answer to this question was: because it was interesting.

Yes, simply because it was interesting.

Seeing such a story with a "tragic" background setting, or playing such a "scary" game was quite interesting.

It wasn't that he was happy to see others' misfortune, even if it was only fictional… Yet, he couldn't deny that there was also some darkness in his own heart.
