Take this with a grain of salt but I don’t think Izutsumi necessarily MUST be be viewed as canonically aroace. I do not have a problem with that reading at all, to be clear, but I’ve been mulling this over for a while and with how much self-loathing and neglect informs her character it just doesn’t seem to entirely fair in insist on taking the “I don’t have a type” line at face value.

She’s a traumatized 17-year-old girl who thinks she’s unlovable and has never had the freedom to chose what to do with her life. Of course she doesn’t have a type and longs for a mom to love her unconditionally.

#this I guess is mostly in regards to ppl insisting that others must treat her as aroace #like I’m always happen for more rep/popular fanon interpretations of characters as aroace I really am #but I guess sometimes the way I see stuff talked about it’s likeeee is this adding to the richness of the character or is this #smacking a label on her and treating her as a kiddo and yelling at anyone who doesn’t see her that way #also I feel like the assumption that the succubus being non-romantic means that someone doesn’t care about romance feels uhhhhhh #like hey people can desire things More than romance/sex while still being capable of feeling that kind of attraction #it’s not like familial love only takes priority if romance and sex are off the table #idk!!! just having some izu thoughts
