Touga Kiyurri makes me insane and then I tell myself not to let a man on the lesbian show make me insane and then I remember the lesbian show is so fucking good that it actually makes centering mlm over wlw and how that can be misogynistic and the difference between that and solidarity PART OF THE PLOT, and then I become insane about THAT.
The amount of foul, abusive shit Touga does to Saionji and Nanami that the narrative does not let him off the hook for but upon rewatch the narrative also leaves room to be interpreted as an attempt to mitigate or protect them from Akio's abuse is what made me go insane & then write this post in the first place. It is SO INCOMPREHENSIBLY GOOD.
(God, AND ANTHY. HE TRIES TO-- KYDKGXKUFUOFVJTFIIU GOOOOOOOOOOD!)
HE ONLY TRIES TO GET NANAMI BACK WHEN HE FINDS OUT SHE'S STAYING AT AIKO'S. SHE'S GONE FOR TWO NIGHTS BEFORE THAT. 2. ONE THE NIGHT SHE SNEAKS OUT YES BUT A SECOND NIGHT TOO, ONCE AT MIKI'S AND ONCE AT JURI'S. THEY GO TO THE SAME SCHOOL. NANAMI IS NOT A SUBTLE PRESENCE, HE COULD VERY EASILY FIND HER AT SCHOOL DURING THE DAY. WHY DOES HE LET MORE THAN 48 HOURS GO BY, ONLY TO SHOW UP TO ASK HER TO COME BACK WITHIN THE SAME HOUR THAT AKIO INSISTS SHE STAY AT HIS PLACE.
