mizu is a woman who believes herself to have been conceived through violence and whose ethnicity makes her even more vulnerable than other girls, all while living in a time period of extreme sexism that severely limits her options and freedom, and so she is forced to conceal her identity for both personal safety and to be able to achieve her goals

mizu is a trans man who is wrestling with what it means to be a half-white man when he loathes and fears the white man who created him all while he attempts to find a foothold in the hyper-masculine world of samurai

mizu is a nonbinary biracial person who lives between the lines of society in all possible ways and is at constant war with the conflicting sides of themself and seeks some way to find a sense of being whole

mizu is all of them. mizu is a marginalized person and a fucking badass who a lot of people are going to relate to and see themselves reflected within and while it appears the show is going with the first option I don't think it's wrong for anyone to use the lens of the show to explore their own identity or to feel empowered

and also it's fun to explore how the story would change (or stay the same) when viewing mizu as a gender other than cis woman

Last few nights

disinterest

I used to write poetry when I was sad and full of hope. The creativity came from the sadness and the hope was a stubborn side effect.

That was before apathy.

Now, I don't feel sad and I don't feel hope and my notebook is empty.
