i absolutely love how wholesome Maomao, Shisui, and Xiaolan's friendship is. they prove you can have a trio that isn't just duo + another person. they are such girl's girls and i love them for it.

Maomao & Xiaolan

i LIVE for their older sister & younger sister dynamic like look at how soft Maomao is with Xiaolan. Xiaolan is soooo underrated; she's such a good and supportive friend. they're so adorable together adjilgjigks. also does anyone remember that one scene where Xiaolan told Maomao her family had to sell her? like Maomao's big sis instincts kicked in immediately.

Maomao & Shisui

i've seen them shipped together and i gotta admit, i do too. but this is a friendship appreciation post so enough of that. i love how they both respect each other's intelligence and yet see each other as more than that. their last scene together UGH i was bawling like a little baby. their last conversation is my roman empire.

Shisui & Xiaolan

most of what we know about their friendship happens offscreen but the moments they do have together (onscreen) are so precious. they're so cute together and i eat it up everytime. they give off "little sisters who band together to make their oldest sister's life hard" energy.

long story short, i absolutely loved these three and i know Shisui is dead but i hope we see more of them (just let me be delulu for once). you don't know what their friendship means to me.

This is actually really interesting to think about, but I think I found a pretty good answer to this question.

Throughout the series it's been hinted at (or more like revealed at this point) that Tsukasa is Hanako's Yorishiro. And that kid has done some INSANE stuff. He killed the previous No.3 in his own Boundary. Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't we previously told (by Hanako himself nonetheless) that Mysteries are practically invincible in their own Boundary. So, either the previous No.3 was weaker than he seemed (which is unlikely from what little we have seen of him he doesn't seem like a shabby supernatural at all) or Tsukasa is an absolute freak of nature. I'm betting my money on the latter. And are we forgetting the fact that he was that good at manipulating people that one of the times he did he:

Caused the school's time to stop

Broke the Clock Keeper's Yorishiro effectively making them lose their spot as a School Mystery

Toyed around with Hanako, who yeah is his brother but who is also the Leader of the School Mysteries

Was so good he forced the Clock Keepers to have to go back in time to stop him

Also, I know we're talking about the original timeline, but even in the alternate time he's still as creepy and powerful as in the original one. (Okay, maybe not as powerful but he hasn't lost his touch.)

So basically, I what I was trying to say by going on that whole Tsukasa Glazing Campaign is that Tsukasa is just Hanako's Yorishiro. If that's Tsukasa can do, imagine what Hanako could if he went off the rails like his twin did. Or imagine what an unsealed Hanako could do.

But then again Yorshiros aren't reflections of their owner's power. However, my point still stands since they're twins. So, I present to you Exhibit B.

Kou mentioned that it took all his grandma's strength to seal Hanako, and from what we've seen of his brother, Teru, the Minamoto's are no slouch when it comes to exorcism. It's literally the family business. Also, (again correct me if I'm wrong but) didn't Hanako say, after he almost got exorcised by Teru, that he played up his pain so Kou would feel bad and try to defend him. Of course, he could play up his pain because he was in pain but I'm not sure if Teru can exorcise him.

You mentioned that out of all the obviously more competent Mysteries they still decided to choose him to be the leader. I don't think that's the case. Because remember:

The Clock Keepers have chosen to maintain their distance ever since he made the pervy comment (with Akane stating he hates him).

Yako also hates him.

Mitsuba fears him but he doesn't count because he wasn't around when Hanako became a Mystery.

By this logic, Shijima doesn't really count either since you stated in your post that she seems younger than him in terms of time as a supernatural which makes sense. She hates him though.

Tsuchigomori seems both exasperated and fond of him in a way.

Hakubo is indifferent to him (at least from what I can remember).

I don't think they would go out of their way to vote for him, especially when there are better options. So, the only logical way he could have become the leader is if he was simply too powerful to be challenged.

The Seven Mysteries

(Yes I know Hanako-kun is technically really stronk or whatever)

The 4PM Bookstacks can allow you to see in the future, the Hell of Mirrors could decimate anybody with any sort of dangerous fear, the Clockeepers can alter the very fabric of the universe, Shijima-san of the Art Room can create fictional worlds at will, No. 6 has power over life and death itself, the Misaki Stairs can turn people into dolls and trap them in a pocket dimension outside of the school....

And they chose a thirteen year old child (no matter how you slice it he's at least the 2nd youngest by time as a supernatural, Shijima might be younger since she had access to modern medicine) "living" in the bathroom with a knife as their leader????

you know a canon ship is bad when the multishipping sucker i am is out here shipping a character with literally any other person BUT their in-canon partner

I don't exactly know what prompted you to write this post nor will I pretend to. I just want you to know that not all Asian men are this way and that to say they're all the same is just, wrong. If you went through some sort of abuse, then just know I'm not trying to hate or condemn or do anything like that because I'm not. My dad isn't the best either. My point is that to say every Asian girl would be jumping up and down if their dad dropped dead is a blatantly false and just a straight up horrible thing to say. You're putting all of us into a box and while there are definitely girls who will agree with you, not all of us will. I might not have the best dad myself, but I know many who do along with great and caring Asian men in general. My Ông Ngoại is one of them. Also, the same goes for white girls. To say that no white girl has ever suffered abuse of any form from their father is saying that those who have that their story doesn't matter. You're putting us all into a box when people, especially people of such diversity shouldn't be. I hope you're okay and that you know that I'm not trying to be a hater or something. All I am trying to do is to tell you that not all people are the same.

Every Asian girl would celebrate if her father dropped dead. Not a single white girl would. That's because asian men are bad fathers and bad people and rape their daughters en masse
