I find it really interesting that Orca views himself as a monster because that’s how the world around him views him and so every little action he does is instantly judged and viewed as not a ‘human’ but a total animal and this same sentiment is also shown by the readers who are afraid of him.
Though it may be for different reasons, I just find it interesting that the story talks about the two characters and them being stereotyped and facing prejudice for the ‘animals’ they are meant to be and in doing so created a toxic environment which renders them unable to feel love or comfort and so when they meet someone who suffered a similar way they feel an attachment and want to support the other as much as they can — they know what is morally right and wrongs and doesn’t want to hurt the other (Orca feels this more) and the readers still hold that stereotype onto the Orca.
I might be wrong so do say your views on this :]
