I have no idea what the hell are you talking about.
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
As you wish:
To correct your mistaken belief that anyone is making an excuse for anything.
Most "holy knight" characters specialize in killing undead or demons. Pelinal specializes in killing elves (FYI, any elven necromancers or demon worshipers is purely coincidental):

Are trying as hard a you can to be the living example that fiction is bad and make your brain rot?
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
... Would you prefer that I go back to the 3 Kingdoms example, then? (preparing to laugh when you call the 3 Kingdoms fiction)
Also, fiction based, at least thematically, on real-life events. FYI, the Crusades were a thing.
Can you please stop the nonsequitur?
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
So you want to say something and not want me to respond or defend myself? You just want me to hang my head and allow your words to make me feel deep remorse or some other nonsense?
I want you to explain your point without talking of completely unrelated stuff.
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
OK: It might be, if the person herself was using it as an excuse. That's not what this is about. This is about me finding Noel more respectable than Tanjiro. Not about her using it as an excuse for anything.
Also, note that I put "paladin's mercy" in quotations. Frankly, I consider the statement "Shedding a tear for an enemy that you yourself killed does nothing for that enemy. It's a self-delusion to make yourself seem better than a common murderer." to be concise enough. Now, if you want further explanation, then I can only explain through examples.
While yes, not killing would be an even higher act of mercy, having compassion of your enemy is a sign of temperance. It's not just for the one you kill, you do it to not lose yourself. Taking pleasure in your killing means losing to your own desires. I can trust someone that had compassion for their enemy to stop their hand, even if only once, when the time will be right. How can I say the same for someone who kills for pleasure?

Not if you do it repeatedly. I knew a fan of No More Heroes 1 who hated No More Heroes 2. Given that Travis did the thing that Shinji did to Kaworu in episode 24 of Evangelion (you know, that 5-minutes of melodrama before killing the enemy in cold blood, anyway), but Travis does it repeatedly. I get that NMH is meant to parody violent genres, but in those cases, I think that the game was making a genuine attempt to be serious... Which makes things worse.
I find that true assassins who enjoy their jobs see the hypocrisy of those who don't.
Conversation with Speaker Terenus in Elder Scrolls Online:
You're wrong, I'm no murderer. "No? What do you call it? Self-defense? Justice? Did they all deserve to die? How you justify your actions does not matter. All souls belong to Sithis in the Void. We are simply the instruments of their delivery."
As we established, the only way that the DHO survived is by embracing that truth or fading into obscurity.

So you have no idea what classic Evangelion is?
As for that last line, I was literally referencing the Type-Moon-iverse, so you are even unaware of the board's main subject.
I feel no need to humor your ignorance.
I watched Evangelion more than 20 years ago. I never played at NMH, nor 1 nor 2 neither at Elder Scrolls. And what the hell is a DHO?

He's been very upfront about that for a while now with his pseudo-relativistic ramblings. I even remember the exact Demon Slayer convo he's referring to.
TM wiki might not be 100% reliable, but it's what you deserve: https://typemoon.fandom.com/wiki/Dem...r_Organization
That is his raison d'être. That, and simping for any monster races regardless of context.
I don't see how the Demin Hunters Organization fading in the obscurity or not has anything to do with what we are talking about.

The families that didn't survived by embracing the truth. That they are killers.
Are you implying that the other families disappeared because they felt compassion for their enemies?
