Since when has Kinji ever been good at reading other girl's emotions? Has he ever been in a relationship before? Kinji has been avoiding girls as much as he could. Furthermore, Kinji and Aria are amateurs in the romance department. Aria easily becomes agitated when mentioning the word 'love' and other related stuff like 'kissing' and beyond that. Kinji wants to avoid any situation or places that can trigger his HSS mode at all times. That's his objectives: avoid girls, keep HSS a secret, leave Butei High as soon as possible. Quote:
Reki practically saved Kinji's life because he's an novice at dealing with snipers. Reki showed him the full extent of what a genius is capable of and how easily he could have lost his life to an attack like that. Without Reki's and Haimaki's timely interventions, Kinji would be at the mercy of Koko. That's the reality of the situation. Aria wouldn't be such a good match up against such an long range opponent with an army of genetically modified hunting dogs. Kinji was regretful later at his outburst at Aria, but she was also in the wrong and so was Reki. When Kinji saw Aria while on a date with Reki, he felt apologetic. They later made up in volume 7. Also, Aria went into a jealous frenzy similarly when Shirayuki and Kinji were caught in a misunderstanding during volume 2, and even when Riko (flirting) had Kinji pinned down in HSS mode during volume 3. Even if Kinji explained the situation to Aria whe she asked him, there was no guarantee that she wouldn't attack him afterwards since Aria was already at her detonation point. But you could also say that Kinji kinda sided with Reki, realizing she actually acknowledges the normal Kinji that no one else does. People do not change that easily, the darkness in Kinji's and Aria's heart will take time to resolve. Kinji has his reasons for behaving the way he does and so does Aria. Don't take HnA too personally, its a work of fiction in the end. P.S. Your putting too much emphasis on Kinji's flaws, but disregarding Aria's too much.

The problem with Kinji to me is that he half-asses through his life. He keeps saying that he wants to be normal and he's going to quit the school, but he does nothing to further that. Sure, Aria and others drag him into stuff, but he could have stopped at many a time. He just uses that as an excuse so that he can protect himself from being disappointed or hurt. If he wants to quit, he should quit and be done with it.
Also he keeps moaning about this 'normal' life that he wants, when in actuality, aside from whatever hijinks he's into his life isn't that bad, really. Saying that he wants to have a normal life all the time is like saying he doesn't care about all the stuff and people that have happened to him so far. Anyway, other than that, Kinji's pretty cool.

The question is, would this make up actually mean something to the both of them this time? Quote:

But I have you guys for that

At the very least, he knew what he was getting into, had the chance to not be involved, and got involved anyway.

In a weird way, I see Kinji's half-assed attitude as an indicator that his character development is not final yet. Sure, he might have made lofty promises but that was him under the influence of Hysteria Mode. That he is painfully aware of the things he said under that mode meant that deep-down inside him, he agreed with his Hysteria mode self. But when he faced extreme situations in his normal self (like Reki's sniper restriction), his heart wavers and he snaps back at Aria even knowing that is not right of him.
In my opinion, if there ever is a time where he can declare his love or not be such a jerk outside his Hysteria Mode, it will signal the beginning of the end of the series. This method of portrayal may not be the most convincing one, but it surely explains why his attitude swings back and forth throughout each volume. |

Still, I pity kinji at times tho... he had a history with girls who found out his secret and abused it, and while he was recovering, in came Aria who's dominating their partnership. i dont know why he chose to continue on this path that melds with the supernatural, but he unlocked Shirayuki, Riko and Reki along the way.
guess that certain guy's gigolo aura that attracted an ENTIRE ARMY of clones affected him, only 47 girls that are stoic got his back atm. both his and kinji's lives are liek a dating sim... unlock one... two more girls show up. btw did Sherlock really die eventually? I mean he DID take a bullet that had HE equivalent to that of an RPG (WTF?!)

Like who? I was under the impression that very few understood his Hysteria Mode. |
