"…Did you see?….I kept your promise…I survived…"
g OD THESE TWO!!!! THESE TWO!!! I NEVER THOUGHT HOW AWESOME THEY WOULD GO TOGETHER UNTIL THEIR FIRST INTERACTION WHEN IT WAS LIKE “this is it. This is the friend that would work really really well with Sachiko.”
Maybe it was because they sorta worked well together, like i dont know how to completely explain it, but yknow how in some pieces of media theres like the short loud person and they have a friend who’s pretty tall and quiet but understands theM WAIT I KNOW EXACTLY WHO THEY’ER LIKE.
ROCKET RACCOON AND GROOT. yeah!!!
Its either they’re like that or it was just a case of Sachiko didn’t have any other friends except for her, and so she latched onto Koemi as best as she could and hoped that her friend wouldn’t die.
(Probably a little bit of column A, little of column B)
But either way, they were still really, really reALLY GOOD FRIENDS SO QUICKLY. Imagine what they could’ve been if Koemi didn’t kill somebody!! Because wow o wow that trial fucked Sachiko up.
It fucked her up because for a split second either she thought about Koemi could’ve been a lie. That Koemi didn’t trust Sachiko with telling her what happened (did she not trust her?) and when Koemi revealed she was in fact a super villain this entire time made her also briefly, so very briefly wonder
"Was she lying to me this entire time?"
Like, Sachiko has been lied to before, she’s been taken advantage of before. Trust me, it didn’t really end well for Sachiko. So for just a few minutes she was heartbroken because she assumed she was alone this entire time, but then Koemi said otherwise, hell Koemi outwardly complimented Sachiko and she was the only other person to do that besides her grandmother. Like holy hell does that mean a lot to her???? like hoooly shit. So Sachiko dispelled all those doubts and just told herself “this is my best friend. Koemi Takibana, the super villain RADIANT♥HEART is my best friend here and nothing can change that.”
Then she watched Koemi die and was promptly fucked up. Tbh she never really recovered from that?? It was sorta the reason why she became such a recluse from then on out, she was terrified with crying again. Sachiko didn’t want to watch someone else she cared so deeply for die in such a gruesome way. She also never forgot Koemi’s promise with living as long as she could, and there were times where she just wanted someone to come and kill her, or perhaps kill someone else and hopefully get caught because she just couldn’t take living without Koemi at times bUT HER FINAL WORDS JUST MADE HER KEEP ON LIVING. Tbh if she never added that Sachiko would’ve just giving up.
Sachiko will never really forget Koemi, she still has her backpack and will probably continue to keep it for the rest of her life. Maybe if she ever has a kid she’d name her Koemi?? Probs. Koemi was probably Sachiko’s true and only friend in her entire life. Congrats Koemi!!! you’ve won!!!!
"...yeah you were pretty cool...hit me up sometime...yeah?"
i ALWAYS KNEW THESE TWO WOULD GET ALONG. I aaaaaalways knew.
These two sorta had the same problem Keichi and Sachiko had where Sachiko sorta like Mari from afar and thought they'd be a chill person to meet up with and probably would be LOADS OF FUN like Mari was always pumped to do things and they would've been really cool friends?? but Sachiko never made the effort to talk to ANYONE so it didn't happen at first.
BUT THEN!!! BEACH PARTY!!! Mari talked to Sachiko and wow was it really nice and cool and fun!!! So Sachiko feels better with acknowlodging the possible friendship the two can have.
Talk to her when this is over Mari, she'd love to know how you're doing uwu
"Go on speed racer…find that finish line or whatever…"
i DONT THINK PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT WHENEVER I SEE A RACING/CAR/MECHANIC BASED TALENTS IN THE SAME GAME IM IN I GET REALLY REALLY FUCKING HAPPY. LIKE YOU DONT EVEN KNOW!!!!
thats my personal feelings, Sachiko’s feelings? She likes Keichi.
She thinks hes funny and a pretty cool guy. She likes funny people, and she’s pretty dang sure if they were ever in a room together they’d probably get along well with the guy. Maybe they could’ve been jokester buddies like Koemi was with Sachiko? Perhaps, but that never really came to be, and the fact that it never really happened was sorta upsetting to Sachiko. She likes friends.
And that’s all she knows about him, that he’s funny and sorta who he hung out with. Besides all that Sachiko has no clue about the guy, but that doesn’t mean she’s not willing to be friends!
If Keichi ever reached out to her after the end, she’d certainly reply asap, yehaw
"...you really tried to see the best in people...was it worth it?"
It's honestly so weird how alike these two are and yet how different, and how Sachiko would sorta hesitate to admit it at first. Sachiko wouldn't say she trusts people, but she liked to give some people benefit of the doubt, that not everyone is bad and y'know like, give them a chance to speak for themselves! Except she didn't do this as much after Koemi's trial, but Mai continued to.
Mai always looked for the best in people and would refuse to easily believe someone killed another person. That trait in itself always impressed Sachiko to no end, but besides that she couldn't really say much else about Mai.
Sachiko is someone who does have loads of trouble with showing her emotions and Mai was someone who was the complete opposite of her, and so a lot of Mai's reactions just didn't make sense with Sachiko to the point where she just stopped trying to figure out what Mai was thinking and rather just respond as best as she can.
So yeah, nothing negative, but nothing hugely positive? She didn't hate Mai, and she wouldn't mind keeping in touch with her after all of this.
"...sorry for trying to make you swim mr.roboto..."
wheezes Sachiko is sorta not sure how to feel about Sora???
like she saw him as this super smart dude at first and that was it. She just remember him being really, really smart for the first week and then Koemi's trial.
She didn't realize that was HIS friend, that HER friend killed. Like, it was hard for her to understand that. She sort of resented the fact that no one else was said for Koemi, or at least sympathized with Koemi (but you could understand Sachiko was in hysterics and really had no one else to turn to after that trial.) So in a way she avoided him, he had other friends who willingly stayed with him, and she didn't have anyone (besides Jackson, at least, but there were days when she was alone.)
It wasn't until after that trial did she ever figure out that no, no the victim was HIS FRIEND. That he had a right to be upset and especially vengeful after everything. That she couldn't be upset with what she learned during that trial. So, she Sachiko went back to feeling neutral about Sora.
Then the beach party was going down, and she saw him by himself, and thought "what a great idea! i'll try and establish some sort of relationship with him! it'll be great!" then it didn't go as planned.
tHEN IT TURNED OUT HE WAS A ROBOT oops sorry Sora.
Though tbh the only reason why Sora has a star was that he figured out who the mastermind was, and to Sachiko that was a+ work yknow.
"You're sorta the hero in all this...aren't you..."
sACHIKO IS SO IMPRESSED BY SUNMI LIKE HOLY SHIT.
She is she really is. To her sunmi had this constant about her where even if she didn't find anything trials wise, she was gonna still figure out who did it and pretty much remain not phased by any of the bullshit thrown her way and that in itself was like godly to Sachiko.
Sachiko could never figure out what was going on during trials and for the most part drifted into silence and listened intently at everything, and sunmi always stood out to Sachiko!! Though she knew in her guts that the two would not really become the closest of friends (in Sachiko's mind it was because Sachiko was too slow compared to the others, she could detect bullshit yeah but not figure out what was going on.)
When Valentina Sachiko was really...really surprised to see Sunmi so upset over someone. Truth be told, Sachiko assumed that Sunmi was tough and could take on anything! Even someone close to her passing away, but like, it was obvious that she did care.
Sachiko is glad Sunmi figured out who the mastermind was, and that they all are leaving alive. She knows that Sunmi has no reason to contact her, but she wouldn't be so afraid if she received a letter from Sunmi. She might even respond (though she might just get jackson to write it since hahaha Sachiko can't write for shit.)
TL;DR Sachiko is just really in awe on how someone could be brave and smart during this entire ordeal.
Wheezes they never interacted but I have this feeling that the two of them would’ve gotten along really, really well? Like, tbh I think Sachiko would’ve gotten along with loads of people. but there was something about Masami’s entire demeanor that made Sachiko make a positive mental note all the time.
Like, she really appreciated his sense of heroics?? Like how he was just SO PASSIONATE about beating the bad guys and getting out of there alive. There was a breath of freshness from that. Plus, it didn’t help that he seemed like a genuine cool guy.
She made note that he was concerned about Alexis/Laia, and took the chinchilla with care and she just??? Wow what a cool guy. Sachiko like alexis, she remembers them talking once and how she made sure Sachiko wasn’t having too bad of a panic attack. Tbh if masami didn’t take the chinchilla Sachiko would’ve, but seeing how close he was to Alexis she thought it was better that he had the chinchilla instead?? Idk a friend of a friend is a friend to Sachiko!
"…Was this your plan from the beginning? To hurt me?…."
Christ from the beginning Sachiko had no clue how to feel about Tsubame.
Like, she thought at first “yeah she’s a little bit of a rough-houser and seems to make jokes out of everything.” but sachiko liked jokes, she liked making puns about, well, anything she could think of to be honest. So in the first few weeks she thought Tsubame as someone who was just loud.
Then Koemi’s trial happened and holy shit.
Tbh that trial itself just tore the girl up into shreds. Like Koemi was her best and at the time only friend. Like, Sachiko really wasn’t close with anyone else, and idk she just thought that “koemi willingly talks to me and jokes around with me…I guess she really likes me.” aND THEN THE LITTLE BLURB AT THE END WAS JUST OUCH so Sachiko desperately wanted some sort of keepsake from her friend and the backpack was the perfect object aaaand tsubame just took it and laughed.
Like, Sachiko thought it was absolutely cruel of her to not even consider that she wanted it. That backpack had items that belonged to Koemi and this was the trial that sorta showed Sachiko who she could trust and who she couldn’t? The people who comforted her obviously were concerned, and then others just left and thought koemi was nuts or whatever. Their opinions didn’t show through as the backpack being taken away from her.
So yeah, even when Tsubame gave it back Sachiko still resented the girl like. It sorta cemented in her mind that Tsubame didn’t really care too much about other people’s feelings. Even if the jokes were a defense mechanism and that was her way of keeping calm, she still didn’t think for a second that Sachiko wanted the bag. (she didn’t even like the fact that there was some stuff removed from it?? it was still koemi’s she still wanted it.)
So when it was revealed that Tsubame was the mastermind there was absolutely no remorse on Sachiko’s side. Like nooooope, I’m not gonna hesitate voting for you.
(There is a part of her that still is hurt. Tsubame and Sachiko are ocean sisters, they both love the water right? How could someone that was so similar to her could be so mean?)
