The manga is clearly not condoning Masamune's actions. And one of the main issues is Kanetsugu is impersonating Masamune himself.


* ''Manga/MasamuneKunsRevenge'' tries its hardest to paint [[RomanticFalseLead Kanetsugu]] as a deceitful {{Jerkass}} for trying to seduce Aki because she's wealthy and he [[spoiler:(well, she, actually)]] [[GoldDigger needs the money]], even though Masamune is lying to and seducing Aki as well, just so he can [[BestServedCold publicly humiliate her for an incident that happened back when they were children]] [[spoiler:(and one that she wasn't even responsible for, at that)]]. Considering that [[spoiler:Kanetsugu needs the money for her DelicateAndSickly younger sister]], hardly any reasonable person could say what he's doing is somehow worse than what Masamune's been doing the whole story.

* Justified in ''Manga/OnePiece''. The protagonists are pirates, so they don't care if someone does bad things unless ItsPersonal. If someone makes their friend cry, he's a bad guy ([[FantasticRacism Arlong]], [[MagnificentBastard Crocodile]] etc.) but if a bad guy helps them (Buggy) they are grateful and no one mentions their evil deeds. On the other hand, they do understand that the marines are the good guys as often as the other way around, but they get hostile treatment because of their opposing standpoints. Essentially, Luffy and the Strawhats do not consider themselves heroes, they don't do things for the greater good. Luffy only cares about his friends, it just so happens that most of the time when he's helping a friend or one of his crew members, he's doing the greater good. And Luffy makes friends quite easily, so odds are very good that any villain he encounters will be a threat to one of Luffy's friends.
