      struggle session incoming, but most scholars agree that it was mostly voluntary (although obviously a significant minority of it would've been forced). It was also rare outside of the nobility.

        Nah, I knew I was being a contrarian shit. It's questionable since I'm not from the culture, but I imagine it could be viewed in a light like physician assisted suicide or something.

        It's obviously from a different era, where stuff like samurai killing random peasants on the back roads existed.
