sometimes i’m like “no one cares about me” but then i remember the guy who told me to kill myself three different times through two different accounts in the span of three months, i mean that’s determination
Sentaro Kyogoku: Main Story and Through Kasumi’s Eyes Review
I read Sen’s main story today, and this made me want to read this from the perspective of our dark prince. This is going to be long, so buckle up!
Contains heavy spoilers! So proceed only if you want to.
Main Story-
Regarding Sen’s story, it was great. I enjoyed every chapter. If you haven’t read anything about Kasumi, then MARK MY WORDS. His behavior will give you a misunderstanding about his personality. But if you have read his MS, then you know what’s going on in that genius brain of his. As I mentioned earlier, MC and Sen both have a friendly nature towards each other in the story. And we can say that one reason for this is their least age gap. Sen, with the prodigy he is, efficiently manages MC as well as his works.
The main problem that we get about Sen is, he has put a lid to his feelings, since his brother Mitsuharu died. He never disagrees to any decision put on by Kasumi, even though it means to suppress his own emotions. But, Kasumi is not at all like that. MC misunderstands that Kasumi is being harsh on Sen, because of course, she doesn’t know what pain he has had been through. Even though it proceeds that way, Kasumi is ready to do anything for Sen to be open with his emotions someday, and till when he will be able to let go of the hand of him. With MCs help, Sen discovers his inner feelings. And it becomes so interesting afterwards to see how Sen goes to much extent for her sake. Sen’s mom! OMG, I love her personality! I was amazed by the way she manages both the Kyogoku hospital and her motherhood relationship with Sen. I had read earlier in Kasumi’s story that she was a kind woman, but getting to read the actual thing got my blood pumping. She doesn’t even blame Kasumi for Mitsuharu’s death, rather than that, consoles him saying that it was not his fault at all. So far, I liked the concept. SEN IS A CUTE AND COOL CHARACTER! With that, he is SO SO SOFT. One instance of his caring nature is when Sho(a patient) gets in an emergency operation and both Sen and MC manage to save him at last. He clings to the ER bed, with his head burrowed, relieved.>.< And I was not wrong in this post to list him among my top 5 favorite Voltage characters.
Through Kasumi’s Eyes-
Now, finally I can talk about our dark prince!! Oh right! Let me tell you why I call him dark prince. It’s not because of the stupid rumors about him or whatsoever. I think he looks so fine with his jet black hair and eyes along with his porcelain and smooth stratum corneum. So that’s why. I apologize beforehand, but instead of developing feelings for Sen here, I fell for Kasumi more. It’s non describable in words how much I admire him. Through his eyes, we can see how he has killed his heart for protecting his loved ones. He is indeed, so strong, yet so weak. He wants Sen to pursue his career and just to let him being kept in the light, he always puts himself first when anything about Mitsuharu comes. For Sen and Mitsuharu, he goes through such extents of politics, pain and struggle, that even if he was suspended at a point, still continues his work outside. Even though Sen’s father always considered him to be responsible for Mitsuharu’s death, he never fought against it, and even though it was uncomfortable, he just listened to whatever anyone lashed out to him.
(This is when Director Kyogoku shouts at him that he is an angel of death.)
More to it, he even takes care of MC in the meanwhile, calling her from time to time when she was in Kyogoku hospital. (Umm, one more reason why he is the canon character. Yes.). This guy even listens and waits on the staircase of terrace, when Sen was crying laying his head on MC’s lap. Even though in the MS, he says that it was disturbing his meeting, but from his own point of view, he actually smiles and gets relieved at how Sen was able to be more open and that he could now let go of his hand, without any guilt left. And I love how he talks to Mitsuharu often about the well being of Sen, him celebrating alone while thinking of him about the Pediatric surgery ward. HNGH.
Ok fine. I will save my blabbering for the next review post. Because my hands will not be able to stop if I continue more. And then this post will turn from Sen’s review post to Kasumi’s appreciation post. But one thing. I LOVE THESE TWO SO MUCH. Gahh, stop.
[Noted one thing? Both of their dresses are the similar ones that they wore in childhood! Ok, maybe the design is the same... But I love that the dark prince is wearing sneakers!]
do you ever just have this one memory that keeps replaying in your mind and it makes you feel so happy and you're like damn why can't i feel like this all the time
Roses from the chain smokers always makes me smile. It reminds me of when I was at UTSA, windows down, inside a friends jeep, fall night, just chilling
