*tries to pick a character for the character meme that I don't know how you feel about* *gives up* Onodera Ritsu (because a new chapter just came out)
LMAOOOOOO i’m sorry that I scream at you about all my faves :( i’ll try to leave some mystery for next time. also since I saw this earlier, I wrote my paper while rewatching SH for background noise and it was really loud bc I didn’t feel like hearing my roommate’s music so one of my guy friends (i love him bc we went to a cooking class and talked about hq!! the whole time) knocked on my door and yelled “SHY I KNOW THAT’S YOU WHAT ANIME ARE WE ABOUT TO WATCH TOGETHER???” so I let him in and he watched the last half of the ep before i had to go and get lunch before class and…. he didn’t hate it :-) I think I can get him to watch another one. I’ll update you on my progress. I think I can get him to watch like 3 full eps before he quits on it. LMAO
First impression - “oh, he looks a lot like Misaki and they’re both pretty in denial lol so he’s probs gonna be an exact photocopy of him”
Impression now - I LOVE RITSU WE’RE ACTUALLY THE SAME SASSY, AWKWARD, OVERTHINKING ASS PERSON AND I LOVE HIM but also srsly there are so many difference btw him and Misaki (they are both so great, I love them, I cherish them and they both deserve the best) so I’m glad i didnt pass off SH as an exact replica of the characters in JR
Favorite moment - i wish i was on my phone so I could put the crying emojis bc i’m crying writing this, but anyways the time where Takano asks him if he’s an idiot and he’s like “YES OBVIOUSLY” or something like that bc same
Idea for a story - i actually want someone to make a slice-of-life fic about him + Misaki being like hardcore BFFs and whining and complaining about their DEFINITELY-NOT-BOYFRIENDS and going on DEFINITELY-NOT-DOUBLE-DATES and just being in-denial dorks together. I wouldnt be able to write it bc I know it would 1000% be OOC if i did lol
Unpopular opinion - hmmm :/ i don’t think this is an unpopular “opinion” but ppl juxtapose his relationship w Takano w Misaki and Usami’s relationship but I think that Ritsu x Masamune is more comparable to Hiroki x Nowaki.
Favorite relationship - [upside-down smiley face emoji] Ritsu x Masamune
Favorite headcanon - i can see Ritsu being a middle child. like, he seems very emotionally neglected… like a lotta middle children.
