I'M DROPPING LITERALLY TOMORROW BUT I FEEL I WAS IN THIS GAME LONG ENOUGH THAT I'M VALID ANSWERING THIS!!!
Yasuragi was originally from a heavily classist, highly warmongering society - might makes right, more allowances are made for you the higher your standing, torture and execution are standardized sentences for wide range of crimes, and giving up or running away are considered worse than failure or even turning traitor. Yasuragi runs by-and-large counter to his homeland's values, but they do still serve as his initial baseline understanding of morality.
After trying and failing to "fit" with societal expectations when he was younger, he ended up veering hard into defining himself in deliberate opposition to his people's definition of "right," aligning himself with lawlessness, shamelessness, cowardice, flagrant disrespect, and outright petty crime while openly disdaining "the proper way of things." With an amnesia reset, Yasuragi was lllless drastically Like This than he once was in "canon," but by force of habit, he remained a person who didn't see righteousness as something to strive for - and consequentially considers himself dramatically less moralistic than he actually is. He doesn't intentionally hold himself, or anyone else for that matter, to any particular standard of behavior, and he's quick to profess to being completely self-interested if asked, but in actuality I NEED TO SHUT OFF MY COMPUTER SO I'M GOING TO COME BACK AND EDIT THIS COMMENT AND FINISH LATER
