anyway the reason eye am not talking about aoi asahina literally 24/7 is that both the games themselves and the fans ignore all the potential of a world famous student athlete in a series that has such deeply engrained themes of how harmful the high expectations for students can be. its just sooo much easier and more compelling to reduce her to silly donut girl :)

#every time i think about her i think about how she was probably in that school feeling so out of control #especially for the first chapter where she couldnt swim?#theres an interesting internal conflict of feeling yr body is getting weaker and that everything yr known and loved for is slipping away #while also feeling that yr powerless to stop. the killing game #i think its one (less obvious) reason why she defended sakura so adamantly #but have i heard anyone literally One person go into depth about it?#no 👍
