This is the same thought I had. If he's not a vegetarian or a vegan character, then he's a very hypocritical one. It's not the character's fault though, there are few vegetarians in Japan and the author himself is probably not a vegetarian.

The reply from the poster below is a typical non-logical argument: "if he eats meat from an animal it's like honoring it by using it to the fullest or something"

Animals have their own lives they want to live, that's their best purpose. It might be a good argument if people actually needed meat for anything, including building muscle, but as the vegan documentary Game Changers showcases, despite being such a smaller percentage of the population, many vegan athletes are able to completely dominate meat eating ones and even set world records.
