They don't make any fucking sens, he manipulates them so easily and the dude has code geass in a realistic setting

They should have just made him into a cannonical hypnotist the way he can manipulate others.
>being personally traumatized by something that happened to my sister and not having a fucking NAME
Nina truly was the superior twin

They didn't make too much sense, as even hypnotizing people doesn't really work.
If anything, he was charismatic enough to put people into a higher sense of suggestibility. Obviously, like any work, the author has control over outcomes, so it largely only worked because the author needed it to.

It was really stupid all that build up for him trying to pass as son of the most powerful man on Germanyto kill him just to end it with "lol I just wanted to see you suffer"

Actually you can't really ask how they work since Johan is something superior to humans and we can't get how he manipulates others and do nothing but accept it

johan was the best girl

Didn't he mostly manipulate serial killers and other psychos? He knew damn well how their minds worked.
The question is how could he figure out who's a loony

What even was Johan's endgame

The total destruction of a small German village.

well It happened in 2015

I recall it being a perfect suicide - to wipe out every last trace of him including human memories. The village played a part in that, but it wasn't his goal.

>Nina truly was the superior twin
Not really
Considering that Nina completely forgot all about that shit while Johan was able to remember all of that shit in clear vivid detail

The bitch mother wanted to keep Johan for her revenge plan after all

>>140531159
It was to get Tenma to lose his humanity(the only person to truly care for him to his eyes),to prove that he's just like the rest and to prove that his own existence is worthless

Remember when he told Nina to shoot him when he was a kid? And then she went ahead and did it?
Tenma then saved his life which shocked Johan since he had never witnessed love before in his life and when he saw Tenma angry and shouting "I wish these people were dead" he did it for him to repay him back in his own twisted way

He then wanted to get Tenma to kill him but inside his own head there was always the conflict of him wanting to be saved by Tenma and being proven wrong vs wanting to get killed by Tenma thus dragging him down and him being right

After Tenma decides to not kill him and saves his life for a second time Johan decides to move on

That's how I interpreted i
