My ultimate sword husband is Mitsutada, but Kara-chan somehow ended up becoming my second favourite sword in the game, to the point that I'm planning to make him my second kiwame. Which is kinda odd for my standard, coz I don't rerally like tsundere-ish guys?

But now that I'm comparing his pre-kiwame and post-kiwame lines (I'm avoiding his letters for now), I realized that he was more complex than that. More specifically, his line where he went "I'm fine alone. Just go join everyone else who is in the New Year's mood."

It struck a chord in me, because that's exactly what I'll tell my friends when we're at an event. I don't really want them to leave me alone, but saying that outloud to them makes me feel like I'm forcing them to do so (because really, who can bring themselves to say no when someone asks you that?) It's like, I want them to stay with me because they WANT to, not because I asked them.

And hey, a bit of a stretch, but maybe Ookurikara feels that way to some degree too. He knows he's not cheerful like Sada-chan, or charismatic like Mitsu. But that's just who he is, he's not putting on airs or anything. Frankly, it seems stupid to fake yourself to get others to like it. I just want people to like me for who I am, if they don't, alright then, goodbye. Maybe that's how Ookurikara feels?

Maybe Ookurikara finally recognizes and accepts Saniwa's true feelings after he returned from his journey. That's why his Kiwame lines are nearly the same, but you can see how they're tinged with affection now. He isn't capable of fully expressing how he returns Saniwa's feelings yet, probs coz he's still getting used to it.

Shit, this turned out longer than I wanted it to be. But still, there are people who hate Ookurikara. Don't hate Kara-chan, please. It's oky to dislike him, but he's not a person to hate TvT
