Starting to think Maeda's love-language is literally just shit-talking. Like little kids bullying someone they have a crush on.

I have grown to like the Ruri/Maeda dynamic. It's kind of nice to have a character that isn't afraid to throw around cutting remarks, but...out of love, to keep the others grounded.

It's still not what I'd consider mature... I think Maeda thought Ruri was cool af from the start, but self sabotaged her chances of a relationship out of self-loathing/confidence issues. Then gaslit herself into believing Ruri isn't worth knowing by blowing some of her flaws out of proportion, so she wouldn't feel as bad about her with a "not like I wanna be her friend anyway".

Either way Maeda has been a fun wrench in Ruri's everyday life, and she's got tons of room to improve as a person.

Really love that they stuck erasers on her horns. It's such a little thing, but totally feels like something you would do to tease your friend if they had horns.
