touya's personality only became twisted because of the constant pressure of being compared since childhood; but he has never once took it out on anyone but himself. he never once resented seiya. he had never expressed interest in anything he pursued, and that includes living; his longing for talent overshadowed his own personhood, so much so that he literally killed himself... or else we wouldn't be here lol
he has never been a ruthless sociopath, if anything he has strong empathy that even he was aware of, which is why he tried to avoid becoming close to the others in the beginning because he knew he would hesitate. he has no talent even in being selfish lol, his body always moved on its own to protect and sacrifice himself to protect someone else... i like that he's a dark mc, but he's not supposed to be an unfeeling psychopath villain or anything..., he's just insanely depressed and suicidal lol.
i see a lot of people saying that he's fickle for changing his goals/reasonings but that's kind of his whole thing... and he's realised that saving the world is a lot more fulfilling than stealing a bunch of talents... bc if everyone's dead who is he going to prove his stolen talents to lol, he knows it's not worth it anymore, esp since he now knows that seiya's reason for reincarnating was for touya's sake.
