You guys don't understand how much I love the relationship between Deshi and Kira. No matter the thread, the relationship is always the same. They’re such fucking opposites. Deshi is the annoying and rude older brother while Kira is the bubbly and happy-go-lucky little sister. Deshi is a tree person and Kira is tiny.
For most of Kira's life she didn't even know Deshi existed and for a majority of his he resented her. Despite how he planned on killing her when he first accepted the hit, he couldn't go through with it. Even with their fucked up past and lack of trust when it comes to family, THEY LOVE EACH OTHER.
I always say how their Kitsune spirits knew to trust each other the moment they reunited but it's so much more than that. Deshi remembers when his parents first told him he was going to be a big brother. He remembers promising Kira the day she was born that he would always be there and protect her. On some level I feel like Kira REMEMBERS Deshi even if they were only together for a few years when she was young.
They trust each other with their lives. Kira is the only person who knows the full story of what happened with Deshi's ex, Jenna. Not even his mentor Yua, who ended up saving his life, knows the full story. He trusts her to see him vulnerable when the anniversary comes up. He trusts her to see him without a shirt and have his scar on full display.
Despite Kira not knowing him when he first showed up, she TRUSTED him to train her to control her powers. She knew that he wouldn't end up turning on her no matter how hard he was in training. They weren't a family for over a decade but it's like they were never separated.
They have movie nights where they marathon Studio Ghibli movies. Deshi will cook for Kira and ask her what she thinks. They buy desserts and food for each other because they know the others favorite foods. They even made up their own language by mixing Japanese and Korean so no one can understand them.
FFS, Deshi has kept a picture of him and Kira asleep next to each other when they were little in his wallet. Even though he hated and blamed her for him being sent away, HE FUCKING KEPT IT. Deshi would die for Kira and she would do the same. They are so protective over each other and even when they argue they could never stay mad at each other.
Anyway, I could go on for days about how much I love these siblings but I'll leave it at that.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
