I actually meant the scene where she got mad at him for saying that he didn't want to go the school festival. In that scene, she's shown that she's capable of bursts of emotions that she can't control. That's what I meant by irrational.
As opposed to Aya's constant masking?

Like you're saying she's irrational for honestly expressing her disappointment by pouting and looking away rather than what? plastering on a fake smile?. She doesn't cry or scream or shout or demand he comes or accuse him of betraying her (which would be bonkers) - just pouts. It's probably not your intent but "a girl is irrational b/c she expresses negative emotions" is kinda sexist nonsense.

And also I think Maruto is going for a contrast between Aya hiding her emotions (dark) and Hikari showing her emotions (light) rather than rational and irrational b/c if anything Aya hiding her emotions is part of her rational to her but deeply irrational behavior pattern.

Of course, this does go against the whole Light/Dark symbology he's built for Hikari and Yami, and how Yuu(Dusk) is a transition between the 2.
Yeah this. Like if Maruto is sticking to the symbolism than probably the way to make Hikari dark would be to go full inversion and make Aya light. And like the climax was Aya actively choosing selfish so really doesn't seem to be going there.

I wasn't comparing Hikari to Yami there. They're both irrational. I'm also not saying that they're irrational because they express negative emotions. They're irrational because they have no control over how they express that emotion. Hikari says it herself in the scene that I referenced, that she "can't help it".

FUCKING HELL YAMI

I'm always trying to give her the benefit of the doubt because I just see her as a really broken child, but doing that shit is SO FUCKED UP

I literally fucking recoiled when the the dude said that

In fairness, Hikari was irrational like once, Yami is almost always irrational

I really hope the author actually focuses on the SA here and not gloss it over. If they write Hikari forgiving Yami and moving on then Hikari is going to be the real one dimensional character
Same here, because going from the tone of the scene, it seems like they're treating it as a sort of joke

This shit is so serious and it needs to be addressed accordingly

B/c she's a teenager who's worrying that showing negative emotions will turn him off. Hell, both Aya and Hikari tie themselves into knots over which emotions to show to Yuu.

Which to be fair, that anxiety spiral is irrational. Hiakri is being irrational by thinking she's irrational for showing she's upset and not calming down fast enough.

That fucking bitch really sold her as a prostitute. No matter how shitty your life is, dragging someone else into the mud just because they're annoying you a little (with good intentions) ain't something a decent human would do. And the FMC became her best friend too, HOW?! If I were her, I'd steer clear of this human garbage. She doesn't need any sympathy, especially after she tried to sell you to some old man.
