Amata is certainly not without flaws but I think this is not one of them. Last edited by kuromitsu; 2012-04-18 at 07:48. |

From experience, even: yeah, it's awkward, even if it's more of a come-on and not at the level of a full love-confession. It's worse if your significant other is there and you forget to check in with them before you start saying stuff (), which is why the fact that Amata didn't check in with Mikono in that scene really jumped out at me. Sorta been there, sorta did that, won't make that mistake twice (fingers crossed).
I can cut Amata some slack here, is what I'm saying. |

Inversely, it's just as rude to tell someone they were born and live to marry someone else solely cause they're the reincarnations of some people they don't know from 12000 years ago. |

Well, in fairness, if Amata handles the Zessica confession just half-decently Ok within the next two episodes, his character will still be cool with me.
I'm mainly just saying that I can see where theflyingturkey is coming from. Edit: I myself have never received an outright confession from a girl that I didn't like, but I have been hit on heavily by a girl I had little interest in. And yeah, it's awkward (flattering, but awkward). I did try to be friendly to her, but I admit that I was scrambling to think of a good way to friendzone her if the need arose.

Something is wrong with the way it's written here. I hope it's intentional. I'd rather have Amata act like Mikono and just don't buy the destiny thing |

Amatas reaction is actually not that bad when you think about the situation a bit more. What can he say to her? Sometimes silence is the best support. "You didn't mean to do it!"? Thats a terrible response. "You didn't know what would happen!"? Yes she did. No one's really in any sort of a position to say anything to Zessica aside from Amata but he cannot say anything without either sounding cold hearted or completely oblivious. Now... if this isn't addressed in the coming episode when Zessica gets put down gently either by surrendering or Amata rejecting her, then we have a bit of an issue. That and, as I've said before, the show has never actually addressed his abandonment issues (only played at them through Zessica) so when he get s a clip show of: "This is why you will be abandoned!", you can sort of understand his reaction and moping.

That's up for debate. Put yourself in Amata's shoes. You're in love with a girl and suddenly it's "fated" that she's to be with another person (On ONLY that other person's words. There's no true proof on her end yet). Are you just going to get up and walk away like it means nothing? Basically meaning your own feelings were nothing. There's no real guarantee that she would be happy with the other person either.

Schoolboy crush, sure. Zuul, you really hate Amata, do you?
So what if it turns out that he is the reincarnation of your precious Apollo and Kagura is just a random guy who Mykage had messed with? What if Amata is the one with the 24000 years love? What then? (Btw I love how you keep dismissing Mikono's opinion.) |
