    Of course you were wrong! You became wrong the moment started judging Paul. You had forgotten that he is also a human, like Rudy. I am also a victim of physical abuse by my father like Rudy in the scene. The whole duration of the scene I was on Rudy's side. But the moment you started judging Paul that was too much. You had forgotten he is human. You dehumanized him. This is too much. You can punch and beat your bully, but the moment you deprive them of their humanity you are stepping over the line. He is imperfect and he made a mistake. This is the reality of being human. You make mistakes. But after making a mistake you always can still be be a decent human. Everyone, every fuсking one, every single human ever lived at any fuсking point of their lives have a potential to be a decent human. No exceptions. It doesn't matter you shouldn't protect the victims of bullies. Protect them. But always remember, the the bullies are people making mistakes, and after everyone is safe and cared for you can show them where they were making mistakes and help them become a decent humans they can be.

    So if both OP's are actually a performance, could it be that Aqua will ultimately plan to unmask Ai's murderer during a 2.5D performance about Ai's life and kill the murderer on stage?

    Kana's love for Aqua is more real, even though both of their love is based on their own projections more than reality. Kana started loving Aqua originally based on the fact that he showed himself to be equal, if not superior to her in acting, but he was still willing to help her get some satisfaction out of her job on Sweet Today. But over time, he has shown that he cares about her (I think he senses that she's good for him because she challenges him and doesn't let him just withdraw into his shell) and she's responding to that, so her love is based on some mutual caring that has evolved over time. Akane, however, didn't particularly care about Aqua until he pulled her off that overpass, which would have been enough on it's own, but then compounded by him fixing the situation for her with the video, which he did because he was pissed off the producers of the show would do that to anyone, not just Akane. But Akane took that as a sign that he cares for her, specifically. This was all compounded when she took on the role of Ai as a thank you to him and he responded so drastically to her in that role, and then even more so when he decided to accept her as his girlfriend in the show, in spite of his somewhat belated clarification that it was just a work relationship for him. It should have been a red flag to her that he responds to her in the role of Ai in a way he doesn't when she's herself, but I get the impression Akane isn't very good at interpersonal relationships in general, let alone at romantic ones, and being something of a method actor, maybe she also has a hard time separating herself from a character she plays and so has a hard time differentiating that Aqua acts differently towards her "Ai" than he does to the real Akane. So while both Kana and Akane's are deluded about who Aqua really is, Kana's love for him is based a little more in reality and actual mutual caring than Akane's is. I think it's just easier for some people to root for Akane because she's so much more fragile than Kana is (at least from an outside persepctive) and seems to be more in need of protection. However, it's possible that Aqua and Akane could build a more real relationship over the course of this season, so this is just how I see it at the moment.

    It has occurred to me that Karane needs Hakari. Without the pink thirsty one constantly making the first move, Karane would have a much harder time getting over herself and showing her affection. She doesn't want to fall behind, so she immediately follows up on whatever Hakari does.

    As a Manga reader from day 1 this being the chapter after literally 2 MONTHS of fun story destroyed me. No matter how many times I read it OR watch it (because the manga is equally as beautifully cruel) I cry or almost cry every time. This show does not shy away from the harsh reality and I love it all the more for it.

    For some reason, I imagine that they wouldn't tell Rentarou if his love for them was beginning to wane, because they still care so much about him that they don't want him to commit sepuku. Besides, there are healthier and more constructive ways to atone than death.

    Really love the cyclops story in particular. It's as hilarious and lewd as the rest of the show, of course, but it also carries the valuable message that no matter how you or your society devalue your looks, there is _always_ someone out there who can find you genuinely attractive.

    Hey ! I just recently found your Chanel and I’m hooked ! I have a suggestion for you and it is Bungou Stray Dogs ! I don’t know if you’ve heard of it before but it is FASCINATING to analyse ! I love psychology and I never get tired of talking about the manga ! It’s also loaded on classical literature reference which is another way of analyzing the story and better understanding the character ! I would also recommend reading some of the light novel but that might be a while until you need to read them. I would definitely recommend checking it out I’d LOVE to hear what you have to say about it ;)

    Lead white is a pigment that has been used for thousands of years, its whitening properties is quite literally unparalleled to any other white being able to blend with many different pigments exceptionally, its also dirt cheap to make only requiring you to put lead in some vinegar or wine then scraping off the powder that crystalizes upon it. It has lead to the deaths of many over the centuries with its effects being known but ignored due to its sheer allure, the obsession with white as a color of "purity" is wholly ironic
