This whole anime is calling me out.

I spent most of my life not knowing who I was because I was hyper vigilant of the people around me and kept adjusting my personality to be “socially acceptable.”

This is how you punish honesty. I am unfortunately really good at lying, but it’s still exhausting. I just can’t comprehend why people can’t just let people be “weird.” Why is conformity such a big deal anyway. Who gives a shit.

This anime may have gotten me a little worked up with unpleasant memories. Still, it’s cute and I love it and I want moar.

Who else can related to Makoto hiding her femme stuff from curiously nosy parents?

raises hand

Taiga Ryuji is the most blatant Toradora reference out there. And when he actually saw Makoto in a dress, he’s like “daga, otoko da”

I’ve been trying to figure out what I think is going on with Makoto’s gender, and after this episode I’m pretty solidly convinced she’s a trans girl. It’s hard to read her getting that excited by getting hit on in the street as anything other than gender euphoria.

I really hope the ball goes well, and the fallout from The Handkerchief Incident isn’t too bad, but I’m scared for our poor girl T_T
