i remember when i first joined the fandom and read both the manga and the novels i was annoyed at how shinya never really... snapped. it was made clear right at the start how much he despised his family for what they did to him and how badly he wanted to see them fall.
so through the entire course of the books i was waiting for something to happen, for him to be angry, to get revenge, anything. but it never happened. and i was pissed, because i already liked him back then and god it felt like nails on a chalkboard to watch him get stomped on over and over again without ever getting that satisfying feeling of vengeance in return. (his death, his win came quite close in that regard, but well, guren pulled him right back.)
but now, that part is actually one of my favourite things about him! he has every reason to be bitter and hateful, but he's not! he could have made it his goal to gain power like mahiru did, wait for a chance to break free from them, a final act of rebellion, but he never did. because he learned, and he knows better.
his greatest desire is not one of hatred, but something as simple as never abandoning his best friend. and that's his whole thing. despite everything, this boy chose a human's greatest weakness - love. as cheesy as that sounds.
he was developed so beautifully in those novels it makes me sob every time. i miss him. can you tell?

Genuinely loved the experience of being at camp for the first time and seeing all the companions with their tits out like they're all gonna go clubbin or some shit
Then there’s Gale
Who's just. So utterly swagless that his clothes smell like dusty old books. My man doesn't give a fuck about the drip he's getting his ass ready for bed
