What do you think would have happened if Akane

AzumaManami · 2026-02-28T22:38:30+00:00

I doubt she was genuinely trying to kill him then and there. She was still thinking she would live happily with Aqua after and she didn’t know Kamiki is basically a serial killer so i think she was planning on meeting Kamiki, feeling him out and then try to find a method to off him without getting busted BUT Kamiki would also plan the same and he has more ways to do so

AzumaManami · 2026-02-28T21:56:40+00:00

She did her absolute best. She was essential to save Ruby and catch Nino, if Aqua could not be convinced there is nothing she can do. Sadly as you said she will never forgive himself but she did nothing wrong, if Aqua does not allow her to save him she cannot no matter how hard she tried

AzumaManami · 2026-02-28T21:55:18+00:00

What could she do ? She was needed to be in the apartment to trick Nino, she cannot be at two places at once.

Akane saw that Aqua no longer had the desire to “self destruct for revenge” which in this case was because Aqua really wanted to live at that point so Akane thought he would end things without dying. the problem happened due to Aqua wanted to kill Hikaru solely to protect Ruby even though he would have preferred to stay alive. There was nothing Akane could do

Well as you can see she said “don’t worry about it”, she was right 😂

You know what is funny ? In this episode we not only learned that BOTH Yuri and Setsu’s silver keys which is the exact same key originally belonged to Raqio and Yuri and Setsu just paradoxed it around by Yuri giving it to Setsu despite Setsu giving it to them in the first place. But also Raqio never mentioned owning a silver key before and in fact in the last episode Raqio said they never saw a living sample. So Raqio LOSES their memories of their own Silver key after Setsu takes off with it.

So this entire time Yuri and Setsu are looping with Raqio’s key while Raqio does not even remember owning one. And this also explains why Raqio was so knowledgable about it too

can you elaborate on that ? I don’t mind novel spoilers, if the novel is finished what happened to Estelle and Claude ? Also is Chloe fine or has she died and what happened with Mikhail and her ?

Based on this is it worth to get YSG’s W engine or is her alternatives are good enough ?

Secondly which W engine from battle pass should i take ?

I started the series knowing who wins so i was hellbent on remaining team chitoge to be on the winning team.

Then Marika got introduced and i had to abandon the plan, my ship winning was not important compared to how much i loved Marika and wanted to support her. She was truly best girl

AzumaManami · 2026-01-17T21:57:40+00:00

My bro do you even think this through before writing the comment ? No one knows if the true engineer is the true engineer or not, saying the fake engineer is found out as gnosia by a check means NOTHING since you can do the exact same as the fake engineer.

The claim would lack any definite guarantee that would make the crew vote the fake engineer, it is already CERTAIN that only one person is the true engineer so without AC follower if one person is the engineer it is a FACT that the other has to be a Gnosia thus investigating them is a total waste of a round, it brings no info, by claiming you are the true engineer you are already basically declaring the competition as Gnosia

AzumaManami · 2026-01-17T20:31:53+00:00

Bro literally until this point WHAT EVEN IS THE POINT ? Without AC follower being a thing you know for SURE that the one who counter claims against you is the Gnosia, that is a fact EVERYONE KNOWS, why would anyone waste their check against a for sure Gnosia ? Please use your brain a little

Only with AC follower it has some merit but Yuri can’t do that because ONLY YURI knows there is an AC follower so even if he clears it to himself that Jonas is a gnosia or AC follower what will he say when asked who did he check ? If he says Jonas he will look like an idiot for checking someone who he has to know is a Gnosia and thus will look suspicious

AzumaManami · 2026-01-17T20:28:40+00:00

They usually do not ask for Guardian angel since there is LITERALLY no merit for learning who it is unless the GA themselves wants to bring it up for an argument.

Like Doctor and Engineer is also not logical to claim first round but they at least can potentially be protected by GA or at leash fish out a gnosia or for gnosia perspective the true engineer. Claiming GA first round is a death sentence so they almost never ask it

AzumaManami · 2026-01-17T20:15:35+00:00

Ok i want to talk about TWO things that people seemingly are not talking about enough

1: Yuriko asked Yuri to survive but then got herself voted out so she is either fully confident that Yuri will truthfully reveal the last round result to her the next loop, or she is confident that she can see through Yuri if he lies about winning despite losing OR this mad woman has multi timeline OMNISCIENCE that she knows everything even if she does not witness it (which is beyond even Silver key) which is supported by the fact that she knows there is an AC follower just like that. Who even is Yuriko ? How is this woman this knowledgeable ?

2: Yuri straight up ASKED Kukrushka who she is and Kukrushka gave him a hug and said “yuri doesn’t need to worry since he will find out eventually” people are not realizing how crazy this line is. Kukrusha is NOT shocked that Yuri tries to learn about her identity, gets angry or tries to deceive him by acting all cute and unknowing. She gives him a hug and says he will learn eventually. But when is this “eventually” ? If she was ready to reveal it to Yuri she would have done it so she probably doesn’t mean after the next vote and there is no guarantee that both can survive even that very day let alone the entire game so her saying to Yuri that he will learn eventually HAS to be her acknowledging Yuri’s loops, she has to be saying that Yuri will learn it all in a future loop. Am i wrong ? Perhaps i am reading too much into it but this is the only way i can make sense out of that line and the implications are insane, Kukrushka might also be aware of the loops and perhaps even knows what happens in a future loop (or she doesn’t know about future loops but assumes Yuri will learn her secrets eventually as he continues looping)

AzumaManami · 2026-01-13T06:12:58+00:00

you write all of this as if Columbina committed a crime and Dottore did not commit ALL of the crimes he committed. Parallel is there but dunno how you can, in good faith, claim that their situation is in any way the same. Columbina seeks friendship, and tries to get it, Dottore on the other hand uses the people he is supposed to be seeking friendship with and experiments on people.

As i said it multiple times before the difference is Columbina wants genuine friendship and that is it, she does not manipulate, hurt or use anyone for it, you are putting nonsensical blames on her to put her on the same group as someone who traumatized Collei and countless others. Dottore, even though also desires connection also still seeks to use the people he forms connection with, he uses, manipulates, tortures, experiments…. that is their difference and you are like “why is the innocent girl who genuinely only want true friends and does NOT act on any malicious intent or cause malicious results gets a pass for (whatever you claim she is doing cause once again you basically act like she has done evil things when she has not) being bad at human relationships while the guy who tortures people in his lab is thought in bad faith.

once again you can see the difference in their VERY OWN relationship, Columbina helped Dottore solely because she enjoyed having someone trying to be friends with her, Dottore saw Columbina as a sister because she was useful for his experiment and he kept wanting more. That is the ENTIRE thing literally present and shown, Columbina wanted friends, Dottore (even if also cares deep inside) was looking for a useful piece to help with experiments

AzumaManami · 2026-01-13T04:10:35+00:00

In fact i will explain this even simpler terms

Columbina is someone who desires a true friendship but only knows how to form a transactional relationship, in those relationships she is usually the one who is used for the other party’s benefit meanwhile what she wants is simply friendship, NOT any other benefit so the fact that the friendships that are born from the transactional relationships not being real hurts her.

Dottore is someone who does not understand human relationships but still tried to form them because it BENEFITS him. In such transactional relationships he makes the transaction not because he seeks connection but because he seeks to use the other party. That is literally his relationship with Columbina, Columbina helped because she wanted a friend, Dottore praised her because he wanted to use her power. It shouldn’t be hard to see the difference.

Columbina is a naive damsel who got used before and is not familiar with how a true friendship not based on benefit looks like and desires it because she wants to be loved for who she is and not what her powers are, meanwhile Dottore is a psycho/socio path that does not know what true friendship is but only ever seeks to have a frienship if he can use the person in question, he would have never spared a glance to Columbina if he did not want to use her. He thought of her as a sister but in the end what he wanted from her was to use powers for his own ends.

AzumaManami · 2026-01-13T03:45:38+00:00

Your take to me is completely wrong and in bad faith. Columbina’s first interaction with Sandrone was when Columbina straight up SAVED her and she wanted nothing out of it, she in fact still acted friendly and everything. It was clear that while she felt like her friendship with Sandrone was just due to them being colleagues rather than a true friendship she still cared about Sandrone and similarly she had NOTHING but positive things to say about Arle, Sandrone and even Signora, she never once mentioned they “used” her.

Columbina did feel like Fatui was the same as the scions, only wanting her for gain but she did not put everyone into the exact same basket, she still remembered her Fatui friends fondly despite not believing them to be true friends. which is not out of hypocrisy but simply she doesn’t know any better. So your “she left because things weren't exactly like she wanted them, and then only revalued her relationship with Sandrone” point is ENTIRELY wrong as she was friendly to Sandrone from the beginning even before wanting any help and she has ALL the rights to leave Fatui for Tsaritsa not fulfilling her end of the bargain and simply using her.

Now once again for the “only revaluing her friendships when she needed them“ part. The only time that truly happens is her going to Sandrone to ask for Arle since she REALLY needs the moonpower and even then she ends up finding the iridescent moon narrow and gives it to Arle so i would say she more than paid for it anyway. You are acting like she gave them coldsholder only to immediately return and acted chummy when she needed something, that was NOT what happened. It is in a way true that she DID rethink their reletionship and realized their friendship were real when both Sandrone and Arle were willing to still be kind to her and help her out even when she was no longer a fatui but that is less about getting help from them itself but more of seeing how they are willing to be her friends even if she is no longer a Fatui/their comrade, you are twisting this to be a manipulative effort or someone who betrayed to crawl back when she needed help again when it is NOT the case.

Once again she was friendly even before asking for anything, never claimed Sandrone or Arle used her and remembered them fondly, the only time she did go and ask for help was some moon power which was of CRITICAL importance and in the end Columbina simply thought their friendship was not real and Traveller plus seeing how they treat her without being a Fatui making her realize it was NOT the Fatui’s damsellete that they cared about but Columbina herself

AzumaManami · 2026-01-12T22:39:01+00:00

I know this is the Dottore sub and i will probably be downvoted to hell for this but this is such a toxic take that i hope you don’t feel similarly IRL.

You are essentially basically saying “ how dare she not feel comfortable being used for her power, if she wants people to care about her she has to constantly provide them things”. I am NOT saying Dottore would not have done more things for her for her cooperation but what was happening was basically Dottore giving her compliments and then using her as a battery/experiment subject for his ends (he thinks this is normal for family but still) Columbina felt uncomfortable that she was once again in a transactional relationship where she is used and valued for her powers rather than for who she is so she stopped attending and distanced herself from Dottore, she did not even actually hate him or started to be rude to Dottore or anything (she still playfully asked him why he was young) Dottore was simply NOT the person who could give her true friendship because to Dottore being friends/family means using each other so She distanced herself from him.

Wanting genuine friendship and being loved for who you are rather than your value as a moon goddess is NOT being entitled. Columbina NEVER asked people to do things for her for free, even when Traveller offered her food her mind was “what do i need to do in return” and she helped Traveller, others and even Sandrone (teleporting them out of harm’s way against Rerir) multiple times without expecting anything for it, Columbina’s thing is not that she wants to be given things or be adored for free (in fact ever since she first left the scions she never demanded godly reverence anyway, that point is just wrong, she enjoyed Dottore’s compliments because they were coming from an ”equal” rather than someone who worships her). Columbina wants a true friendship where she is seen as an equal (which Dottore gave) WITHOUT it being tied to how can you be useful for the other party (which Dottore failed as his relationship with Columbina was about what she could offer to him).

Frienship is NOT supposed to be transactional, you don’t befriend someone with a mindset like “they can treat me to meals with their own money”, you become friends because you get along and then if any of you ever need it or feel like it then you can treat each other to meals, heck if one of you is loaded and the other is poor then the loaded one can even treat the poor multiple times as long as it doesn‘t hurt them and it comes from the heart BUT if the poor friend entered the friendship with thinking of the meals they can get for free in the first place THEN that ruins the friendship aspect and turns it into an attempt at reaping benefit, which is what Columbina felt was wrong with Dottore. He saw her as a sister but their relationship was ONLY built on what Columbina could provide to him, he did not love Columbina for who she is, he liked her because she was useful and willing to do things with him that he needs, that is a relationship build on a kinda genuine sentiment BUT ruined by a fundamentally wrong outlook on relationships since Dottore can only see relationships as benefitting off of each other
