Yeah, I felt the same way. The idea of
Junku causing a world disaster was always pretty dumb. I accepted it since it was glossed over initially, but once you get down to explaining things like that and other things like the stuff you mentioned, you can no longer suspend your belief at least that’s how it was for me (Once it is explained, you realize how dumb it actually is). I was actually laughing at some of the tragedy in the anime like your inital point (mutual killing). I imagine it like a bad SNL scene : okay, guys kill each other. class : ahhhhhhhhhhhh... bloodbath. The fuck is wrong with these people lol.
To be honest , it's surprising to me that both anime series are at 8/10 over on MAL

Congrats for utawarerumono for selling much better than the first game which is surprising since it starts immediately after the events of part 1. Game does seem better so far though(more story focued ; part one had a lot of fan service and slice of life bloating the main plot).
