[Oh look it's the guy who threw that New Years' Party. What insanity are they bringing this time...?]
Things are exciting here. More and more exciting. There is even a tournament! I have never participated in one before - it is a friendly contest thing, yes? I cannot wait to see how everyone performs. The aim is to win, so everyone will be fighting to the best of their ability, to beyond their very limits, otherwise the win is tainted, yes?
Yes.
You will all try very hard.
[Er, did their voice get a bit weird then? A bit deeper? Hm, oh, no, their voice is back to normal]
I hope so in any case. It will make this dull otherwise.
There is a question to be asked.
Hatred and Love is viewed in equal measure. Humans normally say love is worth more. In recent months, I have seen media that espouses that love will always succeed over hatred. Hatred is inferior. It sustains only the self, but it is like poison also. Pure intentions become twisted, revenge distorts the mind and morals, and eventually hatred destroys the individual...
I must admit, this confuses me. I have observed no such things in humanity before. Ah, the corruption, yes, but hatred has sustained and protected humans as much as it has poisoned them. It is usually love that brings about self-destruction, as they hold another's life higher than their own.
So, I have always viewed hatred and love being of equal measure. They are different, yet powerful in their own right. It is like that saying, what, pears and lemons? Apples and peaches? Whatever.
So my question is thus: what do you think is more powerful or more important? Hatred or Love?

One person said to me that there was a man who hated everyone, and cared for none of them, and yet he tried to change the world to allow everyone an equal opportunity in life, signalling that he did care for them. To care for them yet to loathe their existence.
Humans exists in that paradoxical state. This is truth. In fact, you probably hate something, and love something in equal measure! Perhaps it is the same thing! Perhaps they are different things! That is the common truth I have observed!

I see...paradoxical, huh?
I once heard of a man who loved someone so much he tried to destroy them. Is that a human thing, then, based on your way of seeing things?
[Video]
That is it exactly!
Humans destroy things that they love, knowingly or unknowingly. Destroy because no one else can have them!
