Art style experimentation

Traditional art is back in town

post explosion mello but he goes into deep religious psychosis. like hes convinced he survived because god wanted to keep him alive and that he’s a prophet who’s main objective is to kill kira since kira is blasphemous and goes against all of gods commandments. and he even starts sacrificing things like parts of himself for god and he just prays constantly and has to confess after every minor thing he does so he can stay the perfect candidate in the eyes of god and he just totally loses all touch with reality

People argue Artyom doesn't deserve sympathy and he didn't feel true remorse due to his possible NPD, but he's still human and feels distressed. No one got him help and his own mother enabled him, of course he would have a collapse the moment he's confronted with his behavior. Even if his self mutilation was only to gain sympathy, it's the fact he was willing to go that far shows true distress underneath.
