Last time I talked about how much the current event linked with the story of Scaramouche. This time I want to point out something I saw on reddit. Apparently people were looking into the word written on Scara's veil. And wow if what I got out of it is right MiHoYo is putting breadcrumbs everywhere!
Most people from what I've read point at the top part and it looks like the same top portion as the traditional Chinese word for villainous 悪 or evil (aku) if we take the Japanese meaning. But the bottom part of the symbol doesn't make sense. Some point at the word for virtuous 善 for the box part at the bottom and suggest that Scara is more like a blank slate who could be good or evil and that's why the words for good and evil are combined on his veil.
Actually though if we do just look at the top part of the word then it's a word on its own. 亞 It means inferior. Or second best if we use it like this 亞軍. And I tried looking up something with that on top and with the bottom portion from the symbol because it looked similar to a real word. 暮 has a top part that might resemble 亞 actually more like this version 亜. I mean if you squint at it the lines look close enough. And what should this word 暮 mean? Decline. Like a country's decline. So he's an inferior model that could bring about the country's downfall. Cute MiHoYo.
Actually thinking about it in terms of 亞 I looked back at the Opulent Dreams and how Ei abandoned him because she claimed he was "too fragile." From the event we can guess that he either fell in love or felt something for a girl in the Niwa clan. This gave him his "heart." And if we assume it was his emotions that made him too fragile well this is why the Raiden Shogun is emotionless. Since we also know Ei is very emotional it could be that in her grief over Makoto's death she deemed emotions to be harmful to Eternity so anything she made to uphold Eternity needed to be "stronger" than that. Meanwhile she attempted to learn to suppress her emotions through Euthymia.
So are emotions bad? Well not traditionally speaking right? The Shogun after all was cold-hearted to the point of pulling a Decarabian on Inazuma and viciously removing all the Visions from the local allogenes which took their ambitions (pretty much their souls) with those Visions. The nation was left a mess and is still broken to this day. But I think Mr. Kunikuzushi is on the opposite spectrum of the Shogun. He's too emotional. He felt abandonment when Ei left him at the shrine. He felt supremacy over the short lives of mortals. He felt love for Niwa and then hatred for the bladesmith and that led him to destroy the Gokaden. He then took on the name of country destroyer probably vowing revenge on Ei and Inazuma in his anger. Just imagine if Ei had let him be Shogun. 
But also thinking on the 亜 thing I think it makes it clearer why he thinks he's so superior. We learn that from the Pale Flame and also from his namesake in the commedia dell'arte. Knowing that he's the rejected prototype to the Shogun it seems his superiority comes from his underlying inferiority. In psychology the reason a person develops a superiority complex can be because he actually feels inferior and uses the complex as a defense mechanism. By convincing himself of his superiority he never has to admit his true feelings to himself.
I know there are plenty of you guys that hope Scara will become a playable character. If we're humanizing him before we even get close to the fight there is a chance that he could be saved. I mean Yae did promise to help him and she is the one that gave him Ei's Gnosis which has already begun to influence him. He has emotions and he's shown the capacity to love. It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say we'd beat him but spare him so that he can reform. Maybe Ei can reunite with him and apologize.
And then he and his little sister can be one big happy family again.... while his mother is still using his sister's body since she's lost her own. Just your lovely typical feudal family.
