Orochi should really have taken care to make sure its agents ACTUALLY WERE as biocentrist as itself. Yashiro and Shermie, it got right, but I get the distinct impression Chris doesn't like Nature qua Nature (or at least not qua Wildlife), but rather Nature qua Fun Toy that risks breaking with humans (or maybe any other mortal sapient...) proliferating. The TVTrope you want is Not In This for Your Revolution.
He and Goenitz are BAD influences not just on Yashiro and Shermie, but Orochi itself...
