What genre of media to you think the Hashira would enjoy in the modern era?
I hope this is what you meant:

- cries at every underdog moment
- gives a motivational speech after the credits
- Loves how crazy the fantasy films are + will watch with tengen because of the flashiness
- Would make a character his personality for a while
Examples: Avengers, Top Gun: Maverick, Rocky, Haikyuu!!
Tengen Uzui: Reality TV, Fashion / Red carpet, Blockbuster action, Fantasy films, Sports

- sobs over literally anything with love
- kicks her feet and squeals
- watches just to feel warm inside
- also watches all the dad coded “boy” films with action ect ect because of her dad
- Sanemi strategically watches with her a “boy film” so then when she picks the next film he’s “forced” to watch a romcom
