Also, seeing Emi's face during that scene was just....

Ew.

See, this is the thing that makes me wonder. I can't really tell when Shizune is being sincere and when she's to jerk Hisao around and guilt-trip him into helping her. In any case, the fact that everything is a competition to her, and that she's constantly looking for a method to gain the upper hand makes it impossible to relax around her.

I kind of love that phrase, number one, and number two, I thought it was cute in a "this will be funny later on" sort of a way.

Thing is, she's being sincere even while guilt-tripping him. To Shizune, if you're just gonna mope around and not contribute, you should feel guilty. First of all because your uselessness is a detriment to those trying to achieve something (I.E., Hisao's preference for holing up in his dorm instead of doing council stuff means more work and more stress on her and Misha) and second of all because Shizune's got this idea all twisted up in her brain that achievement = pride = happiness so she constantly tries to push people toward that. If everything's a contest, there's always a victory to gain, always something to achieve. Even her distance in regard to the old incident with Misha is mired in this idea: If they bring that up, it's going to create all kinds of turmoil. That will hurt productivity, which will directly negatively influence what they can accomplish together. The solution then is to stuff it into a figurative box in the corner and focus on the now.

Much as Emi insists on pushing limits of fitness, Shizune insists on pushing limits of achievement. If you're not doing something then you're just wasting energy and time and there will be none of that on Shizune's watch..Y'know, unless she wants to stop by the teahouse. (Hey, humans are hypocrites XD)

You think citrus fruit is a game?

One does not simply spend one single day feeding someone citrus fruit.

You know, lemons are also citrus...

And to answer your question, I just didn't feel a connection with her, her route was very confusing and I felt like i have nothing to relate to all the time. I do plan on eventually giving it another shot.k

Holy shit. Why did I never make this connection till now. Emi = lemon, Rin = orange. The citrus sisters.

Maybe that's what Misha's disability is.
