"But I understand now. And because I understand, I'm scared."

I have never related to a romcom protagonist like I have with Mira in this moment.
Her ability to go from the "outside -> in" and articulate the subtext of why it's so nerve-wracking for characters who are attracted to one another to initiate physical contact/intimacy is as refreshing as it is adorable in this moment.
What a vehicle of a character for deconstructing the trope of anxiety around similar situations across the genre.

Well would you look at that, Haru's growing up! Actually understanding the world around her and all the anxieties that entails. Ought to make for a much more equal relationship in the future once this hurdle is cleared.

Plus we have the delightful addition of our hero once again being forced to confront the divide between his "duty" as a hero and his own wants as a person. What's a boy to do under such pressure?

Noticed that aside from the lack of Shark Teeth, Mira reminds me of Power from Chainsaw Man. :thonk:

Tbh, she's probably actually understand if he wanted to solve the problem, and since she both knows his identity + the problem is right there it shouldn't cause any issues with the date if he so chooses do so.

That was just the rabbles among the grown-up babies on the venue. Not the world ending thing. Just ignore them.

Hiro... You do know Mira isn't human, so you can just beat those bullies together, right? You can have both... Also those are just random drunk people so why would a hero must take a stage...
