I would say you're missing the point of TM, but you probably don't care.

That's not what I'm addressing, but I usually also prioritize plot over characters. It's just that TM is also about the underlying themes as acted out by the characters, so...
When I said characters, I mean I care about their lives, as much as I care about real life person.
I can understand theme and reasoning, but not enough to feels bad about them dying.

Richard is really shady
Understood.

Not like he ever pretended to be a good person. Also, I feel he will kill Bazdilot because the latter's last name is Cordelion, or otherwise "Lionheart".
Uh, this just remind me of how Richard got his nickname on his epic poem, if Narita and co. read that work when designing him then things are gonna turn gore when showing Richard's cruel side. "a lion in a man's skin" indeed
And it'd be fitting, showing Richard's cruelty against the biggest psychopath in the war. Perhaps parallels will be drawn between the two "lionhearts" and how both possess an inhuman cruelty, just of different types. Maybe Bazdilot will also be referred to as a "lion in a man's skin"?

Spoiler:
this is a valid candidate for true berseker, for the "I can combine every weapon" stuff
True Berserker has a lion's head though.
Ah, yes, the hipster argument

But it's a lion mecha, so still a building walking machine

too many lions in this story
*Suddendly Lion Arturia Shows up*
And Lion King's the whole setup via Holy Selection.
Whether he turns evil or not, Richard is still my fave in this novel and one of the reasons I picked it up (though more specifically, it was Ayaka who I was looking for more info on due to finding out Prototype didn't have so much material, then he grabbed my attention shortly after) so I'm interested in what way his character will go.
Juuuust as long as they don't make him use Ayaka as a means.
I doubt it'd be anything so black and white. It'd just add depth to his character (showing instead of telling). I don't even expect anything like a "turning evil" route for him.
Honestly all I really expect is for him to fight with a lot of bloodlust.
Basically a blood knight vs. arthur's white knight

I actually wouldn't mind if he turns into a blood knight, the thought of Richard making intense expressions and getting absorbed into battle sounds appealing in it's own way
That's kind of what he already is. I do hope he expresses his dark side against Bazdilot for reasons I don't wish to repeat.
He'll stay a good boy the whole story and in the end, sacrifice his newly obtained wish to destroy the Grail, defeat Beast Prelatti and prevent the pruning of the Strange Fake Timeline.
Alternatively, he dies before that and Grand Lancer Sigma does the job.
