see what’s so funny is im writing about her tragedy for one of my uni assignments rn and im actually doing a good job of being concise and focused about it!! but my Point: ‘her tragedy’ the episode sharing its name with ‘her tragedy’ the comic theme that scores nanami’s silliest most devious and absurd moments. ‘her tragedy’ being tweenaged anxieties, vanity and snobbery, an over-attachment to an older brother; ‘her tragedy’ being the alienation this thirteen year old girl experiences such that she is completely isolated in her abuse and unable to understand it, or anyone else’s. being disarmed by this comic presentation of nanami’s character such that when she stares at you in the lift she seems to be asking you, how could this happen? and you cannot answer her because you know you have left this narrative slowly unfold, laughing at her tragedies until they become too uncomfortable for you. and you have to live with that. and you have to live with that. GOD. nanami im so fucking sorry i ever said anything mean about you dot jpeg

#her tragedy is always my favourite episode like how could it not be #it’s the ep i most vividly remember watching for the first time bc it shook me to my CORE #i was not engaging properly at that point in time with rgu’s commentary on incest bc i wasn’t emotionally in the place to do that #but i felt the emotions i was meant to feel and im so grateful for that #i saw nanami and i saw her see me and. oh. oh.#‘her tragedy’. let’s recontextualise everything. let’s lift these veils. let’s see true darkness. it wears love for a face if you even care #tho tbh in nanami’s case it wears comedy for a face just as much #ANYWAY. NORMAL <33333 #dais.txt #her tragedy her triumph
