>nta but isbhe thought? Call me a schizo but I always felt that we were supposed to get Jo's backstory much earlier and further explanations as to who his master was
He literally spends his whole introductory episode annoying Touma and Kento. The show makes it a point that he's more hotheaded, aggressive and immature than the other swordsmen, his backstory itself doesn't matter that much because the biggest obstacles he has to overcome are his inherent flaws as a person, that's why his whole arc is about him maturing and finding his own path in life thanks to Desast rather than something more closely tied to the plot's central conflict.
>same for an expanded backstory for the swordsman that killed Falchion's family
Anon, he's already part of Yuri and Bahato's extended backstory. He as a character isn't as important as his actions, he's just a nameless swordsman, and not even a Seiken wielder at that as his scenes clearly take place at a point in time before Yuri and Bahato got theirs.
