TMI Trivia
(Yumi Tamura's BASARA manga)

Tamura-sensei explains that Shido's last thought "I hope that my death will be told to her gently" is actually a line spoken by the Gulf War soldiers before they went to war.

Tamura-sensei doesn't elaborate where/when she heard about/watched that line (about the Gulf War soldiers). She thinks that no matter how a soldier's death was told, the family will still hurt the same. 😭😭😭😭😭 #BASARA #Manga #shojo #tmi
