these are just some hcs and things I want to point out about Yui's character. (some are ideas/opinions)
okay so first off, we know that she never knew her real parents but do you guys notice how she's never had any interest in wondering if they were even alive?
A long time ago when the series was first made and was getting its fame people were saying the boys and Yui were Japanese. This is FALSE!
She's blonde for crying out aloud ya'll, what Japanese girl is gonna be a natural blonde? I mean the likely hood of that is just to narrow to even be considered.
I had from an analysis based on the games and stuff that after the heart transplant she had, her adoptive father, Seiji, took her away from Romania and moved to Japan. Although I'm not sure if it's true it does seem possible.
Yui is most likely from Northern or Eastern Europe.
Maybe she's like Latvian.
If an actress had to play her part I would say it should be Elle Fanning.
Her name is probably not even Yui.
And of course, if ya'll know me I'm giving name suggestions!
Here are some possible pure Romainian names for Yui: Elvira (the one who protects everybody), Ecaterina (pure, innocent), or Lacramioara (original Romanian name, meaning teardrop)
I see Elvira the most tho.
Okay, apart from this she is very sheltered, so can everyone (who hasn't noticed) take a minute to acknowledge the fact that she isn't familiar with pop culture?
Also, she's a church girl, Catholic more specifically. She is not allowed to listen to a lot of music.
Her dream was to become a nun. This only goes to say that if she wished that; and that that was her goal she is obviously going to avoid certain things that her religion finds/considers taboo.
This might be the reason why she doesn't have friends.
Bc in a modern society if you are sheltered or dedicated religiously, you don't make a lot of friends bc people don't agree with your morals, think you're weird, or can't understand you.
Unfornetly part of Yui's ignorance is just because she's sheltered.
Although tbh in the manga and games she has more of a personality and she really isn't dumb.
For some reason tho Rejet made her seem dumb in the anime and I just hate how she came off that way.
I've always loved her character and I believed that she had valid points (I still do) and I remember for the longest time how people disliked Yui and I'm glad it's over.
I really wish people wouldn't ship her with any of the boys because she deserves so much better like they have abused her is so many ways and she still prefers to be nice and try to help them.
This girl is a role model like her kindness is too good. Like, idk anyone who could compare.
They don't deserve her love.
She is an amazing person who doesn't deserve such a fate.
Like the boys ( I would say most) are beyond redemption.
Anyways I just think that people should appreciate her if they don't already do.
Can we also talk about this in an artistic viewpoint?
She has got to be one of the most prettiest female anime characters.
She has a lot of detail and I feel like the artists gave her a look of some kind of nymphet aesthetic, you know?
If you pay close attention you will see the silhouette of a bat in her eyes.
It's so cool that they put that in as a tieback.
I've drawn her a few times so this is how I know lol.
I also wanna talk about how she is more savage in the manga like, she responds to them a little and tries to get away stuff.
Also speaking of useless, people talking about being Yui weak; which I will say is true.
This young woman is very strong mentally like even if she is a little broken she keeps moving and trying to do the right thing.
But I will see that Laito's hints at anemia and Reiji's methods of nourishing her blood in body kinda give me a hint that she has a weak body.
For one, she doesn't seem to eat a lot when we see her with food.
Now there is nothing wrong with that.
But for Reiji to talk about how cranberry juice will help her blood be healthy concerns me and I mean Laito told her to eat because he thinks she'll become anemic so something is strange.
Plus they'd only act this way if they could sense her blood was a little poor in health. I mean they drink it if they don't know who will?
We also see how she is weak and faints or doesn't have the strength to fight them.
This is either because her health is at risk or she's already unwell. Whatever the case she isn't in the based state.
And we all know that this is because they don't give her space to recover. Maybe if she was too close to dying.
But other than that if she's weak they don't care.
And I'm not surprised if they don't feed her that much. Cause they don't have to eat human food, it's a choice.
They just have to give her food that's enough for her to live, but she's probably on the brink of starvation.
Like I don't' think they give her a lot, they just give her enough amount to be able to walk and function somewhat.
But other than that I think her health is very poor so she is weak.
I will say that even tho she is mentally strong, she is broken bc who wouldn't be after all that happened to her.
It's a lot for anyone to take in.
So I mean even if she makes it out alive she'll never be the same.
I mean they have messed with her sexuality and her morals to the point where she becomes somewhat of a masochist.
So I mean, she clearly doesn't how to feel anymore.
I mean her own father tried to kill her in one of the routes because he thought she was a vampire and no longer pure.
This must have really hurt her considering what he told her in return. She believed in him, the whole time she kept sane bc she had hoped he'd save her or something and yet he let her down. Like wtf.
I'm not surprised if Yui has questioned God's existence at some point. It's never really been showcased but I'm sure it may have crossed her mind. Which in any case is very normal.
Now speaking of religion, I have theorized this before and thought that maybe God doesn't exist in the DL world. Cause if you think about it, it's a little weird for demons to roam the earth among humans, I don't think this is something that wouldn't be particularly allowed by God in any religion. Especially in Catholicism.
It doesn't make sense to me anyways.
So idk maybe it's something humans believe in but it's not actually real in the DL world?
Plus why is there this whole adam and eve thing if God exists in their world? It's a little strange.
Anyways this is all I got for Yui hcs and discussions rn. Let me know if anyone else has something they'd like to know/talk about.
