Comic strip for an arc I've been thinking of where Emperor in his little commoner side quest string ends up coaching Roja as his final test to see if he's truly figured out how to understand others better
Sorry ab the formatting I don't do comics
Little overview
The reason Roja's being forced to play gootuber specifically is because with his main weapon no matter how many drills and practices Emperor made Roja do he wasn't able to let go of the anxiety associated with it due to his own high expectations with his performance, so Emperor in choosing this weapon for him is essentially forcing Roja out of his comfort zone and to accept that he will make mistakes
Bad weapon + inexperience = tons of mistakes (and lots of room for improvement)
(+ it has the added bonus of accomplishments actually feeling like accomplishments instead of being the expectation, so Roja can actually feel some joy when he improves instead of thinking he's performing average)
Also I can imagine Emperor taking a lot of notes from Prinz's development when coaching Roja, taking into account how Roja seems to have the same mentality Emperor used to force onto Prinz, but instead of projecting it onto others he's using it on himself exclusively (you only play to win and only effeciency is needed)
All in all the arc would take place a little bit after the current storyline (jumbled king cup) and eventually end with Roja subbing in for one of Mitsuami's teammates who gets taken out by an injury
It would be too long and convoluted of an arc to work in the actual coroika manga itself obviously bc of how much of the arc is Roja fighting against his own mind but I like it
Also it's somewhat self indulgent not as a ship thing I just miss Emperor and having an excuse to bring him into the Rojawire drama is good enough for me
