Qi/Quotes

(To Hachiman) "That's why I told you that stuff's "poison", right? To completely breaks people down to this point. It breaks down the actions, language, reactions, limits, and everything else of people and makes them go out of control."
— Episode 21/Chapter 89 (About Nico's alternative personality wakening)

(To Hachiman) "Hachiman… you certainly do have a keen eye for people. You’re good at making deals and threatening others after all, but that's what backfired on you."

(To Hachiman)

"You won’t immediately kill personnel who are useful to you.. you just use and use them, and then you crush them.

Someone who hates “losses” more than anyone can’t immediately make a decision. People who are too arrogant think that way too."

(Thinking)

"People who live honest lives lose out. People who have a dirty way of life win. I was always the latter, so this reality pierced deep.

I don’t think I can lead an honest life at this point, but I thought I wanted to do something, that it was fine even if it was just self-satisfaction. No matter what kind of thing it is, it definitely has a use. I wanted to prove that by myself."

(To Upa and Liang) "Even I think this building is precious you know. since it’s necessary for us to properly start over. we were finally given a chance, so there's no way I’d be able to turn a blind eye."

(To Musashi) "That's... kind of a waste. Baikal skullcap blooms around this time of year, y'see. It's called "koganebana" in Japanese, but its flowers are actually pale violet in color. It's often used for alleviation of fevers and inflammation in Chinese medicine. There's a flower called a 'tiger lily' that's in bloom, too. It's got flecks of orange on it and it's used as a cough medicine. There's also the pale red orpine, which is an effective detoxifier for poison. You can make a yellow, five petal Chinese thorough wax bloom, which has anti-ulcer and calming effects. In winter, you've got the violet mountain wolfsbane, which has strengthening effects. Flowers are beautiful no matter the season or era. If they can be used to entertain people, then they can heal wounds and cure illnesses as well. I think learning about those kinds of flowers is about as fun as seeing them. Don't you think it'd be nice to find meaning in them as more than just a flower? Sorry, I might've rambled on for too long there."

(Talking) "It was nice talking with No. 634 and all, but... like I thought, it was no use. I couldn't seem to conquer my fear at all... If it was gonna be like that, then maybe it would've been better for me to stay here and train some more..."
