Hasegawa's narrative includes an admirable argumentation about how there were '''obvious risks''' -- certainties , even (like becoming enemies of the state after unveiling whatever they thought they'd unveil) -- but still the young couple went ahead with it all. It's peculiar how the couple's children are never mentioned at this point. While it's true that young parents are sometimes tempted to make the most of their lives (leaving it to their relatives to care for the children), the Hasegawas are kind of going to extremes here.

Also interesting how Hasegawa brought a gun on the trip, and how awkwardly "convenient" it turned out to be. Possibly it was "just" to defend against wild beasts (mutant hamsters?). But, since the Hasegawas admittedly "knew that traveling there would brand [them] as enemies of the state", then who's to say that the gun wasn't meant to be used as a last resort if running into "zone-guards", or for committing ritual suicide? If the two young people ''really'' feel like they have nothing to lose, then going armed kind of makes it double.

The two young people may already feel like they have "nothing to lose" at this point (ahem... children?), but the gun is what makes all the difference between clueless and reckless.
