However, they're not fans of how their cousins have a highly mercenary culture as bounty hunters and merchants. The way the Crabs see it, all of their own "rudeness" and Yasuki "commerce" is done for a greater Duty; the Mantis, by contrast, only do such things for themselves (at least as far as outsiders can tell). As such, Crab opinions are a mix of those who respect the Mantis and those who think they're unworthy of calling themselves Osano-Wo's descendants until they pick up their weapons and man the Wall with them. The Mantis, for their part, don't really hold any ill will against the Crabs unless they're on the receiving end of their disdain. They have a distant respect for their forebears and their Duty, but remain individualistic in charting their own course, and see no need to prove themselves to the Crabs.</ins></div></td></tr>
