Let’s talk about mitsuri and her relationship with food because I need to talk about this.
⚠️Eating disorder Tw⚠️
Mitsuri has an ED and I don’t care what anyone says she does. (Yes people can eat a lot and be fine and healthy I’m not talking about that) and I haven’t seen many people talking about this but just as shinobu has insecurities I’m sure Mitsuri does too.
It started when she was trying to get married so before she became a slayer. Like when she was 16( the age her fiancé left her)
She starved herself eating less than her body needed to function. I cannot imagine how she felt probably wanting to eat more and holding back just to fit the image that most likely to get her a husband. (It’s not wrong to change how you look but don’t do it at the expense of your health please).
It kinda frustrates me how this was looked over so casually just like a simple sentence but I can imagine this probably continued when Rengoku was training her too. Like even her family said they worried about her just changing and she kinda brushed them off because she thought she was doing good changing.
When someone tells you something that affects the way you go about your daily life it doesn’t just go away in an instant. And maybe Oyakata-san did help with Mitsuri getting better and going in the right direction but I don’t think that was the end of it.
When you struggle with image it’s hard not to continue to compare yourself and wish you were different or born different so I honestly think Mitsuri still struggled with eating afterwards.
Possibly sometimes forgetting to eat or realizing she hasn’t eaten and eating more than her body can handle and laughing it off saying she’s super hungry.
Looking at food and craving to eat but also looking at it and having slight disgust with it.
Mitsuri thinking she’s fine now because she’s accepted her body and her strength and it’s okay to be different but not realizing she shouldn’t be over eating.
Eating anything offered because it’s rude and she doesn’t want to be rude and doesn’t want to worry anyone that she’s not fine.
I just imagine that she still had some type of problem with food is all.
!!! This is my opinion and thoughts you don’t have to think this but yeah!!!
