in my mind the director is mtf. her talking ab "what if he decided he wanted to be a woman" when she saw pics of minato crossdressing was sort of a key to me. i think she was forced into a role by/for her father but eventually realized that she likes being a woman more.
also, t doesn't come in pill form. e does. (assuming that's what she was taking with her coffee)
a bit more of my thought process:
my best guess about the family situation is that she has a dead sister (hence the zombie comment from her brother.) since it looked like the family photo had two sons & a daughter, but only two of his kids came to visit (one son & one daughter, but seemingly not the daughter in the photo) (& she also apologized to the person her father mistook her for)
i think it was her being made to take the role of his daughter that then made her realize she wanted to be a woman. especially because if all it was was just a role she was forced to play by her father, i really doubt she'd then go to the effort of socially (possibly even medically) transitioning (and trust me, it does take EFFORT.)
(what the fuck even is that also) rou's just an idiot. he just genuinely doesn't realize how his actions are affecting others. and to his credit when he does figure it out he does his best to make it up to yoshino. their communication definitely improves over the course of both this edition & the first one, like rou is very much trying here. hes just a bit obtuse sometimes
THANK YOU!!! This is exactly what I was saying. Like, he's very much just stupid and even still he was completely upfront and didn't hide things. Idk why people were SO upset that this character did something in-character... Even if it's a shitty thing to say, that's the POINT. He's still learning how to properly have a relationship










i really want to like this series and i just don'tttt
i'm on ch55 and jaeyoung's trying to control sangwoo's social life? really? even after he admitted that jihye isn't even a romantic option to sangwoo? like you could let the girl get her closure ffs. and the "no calls!" bullshit... that wouldn't be your business even if you were dating but rn you aren't!!! jaeyoung's so fucking insecure ab this relationship and he's taking it out on sangwoo who doesn't even have the social skills to realize what's happening & why it's unfair to him. dude literally has like.... single-digit friends who he's apparently not allowed to keep in contact with, meanwhile the social butterfly with the parade of exs is trying to isolate him even more. it's harmful and hypocritical bullshit. it's entirely your fault that ur relationship started off so badly, and yet ur essentially punishing ur partner for it. nasty mf.
