I learned so many lessons from the anime *Sword Comes*, it's shameful I didn't understand them for decades – I guess I didn't read enough.
How to handle a cry for help: A gentleman doesn't help others.
How to view yourself and others: Morality should govern oneself, not others.
The reason for outward Confucianism and inward Legalism: Law is the tool of Confucianism, Confucianism is the soul of Law.
The perfect state of morality and rule of law: When sages die, great thieves cease.
"Don't use the standards of sages to judge ordinary people, but don't use the bottom line of the law to condone bad people. The law is the bottom line, morality is the upper limit, and rules are daily life."
I hope everyone can find that "one" within themselves.
