"For a long time, the United States' strategy has been to separate superheroes from ordinary people. I don't mean isolating them geographically, but handling them separately on a social level," Schiller said.

"It's like two actors on a stage. One plays the savior, and the other plays the saved. The one saving people has to perform well, and the one being saved has to perform well too. But no matter how well they perform, the two actors aren't all that tightly bound together."

"Though one performing poorly may affect the other, they are essentially equals. Neither can decide whether the other stays or goes, leaving them in a state where neither can do much about the other."

"Though it appears equal, this isn't a healthy state." Schiller shook his head. "It could even create a vicious cycle. One side performs poorly and drags down the other, so the other wants revenge on the next stage and drags them down in turn. Then both sides spiral downward until they get worse and worse."

"The way to improve this situation is to completely change their relationship, perhaps even completely change one side's nature. Make them stop being actors and become spectators instead."

"Previously, the public could only follow the script, so to speak. When facing superheroes and disasters, ordinary people were inherently the weaker party. They truly needed help, especially as individuals. They needed superheroes to look after them."

"This creates a balance between their power and that of superheroes—you use your power properly, and I'll use mine properly. But if you dare abuse yours, don't blame me for breaking the rules
