^^ The manga makes for a far more interesting. He was a greedy, violent man who found some redemption but wasn't strong enough to resist the devil he was dealing with, and he lived his whoe life out in shame because of it. In the manga Ukina is the only hero there. She took extreme measures to make sure Eto was even born, then laid her life down without a second thought while apologizing to Kuzen because she knew how hard killing her was going to be, but there was no choice if Eto was gonna live. That's a far greater sacrifice on both sides, and Kuzen's defeatist mentality explains why he abandoned Eto after running away. The anime Kuzen seems like he would have at least tried to keep, but in the manga it was obvious he couldn't protect anything.
