I'd like to share a quick reminder. Do not take me as acting aggressive in this post, I've been in seclusion for 4 days, and I am the least bit interested in arguing.... But I can't believe this is an issue. Are Houki haters so low on ammunition it's now a thing to attack a girl's principles? There's too much hate going around it's become very difficult for viewers to see something other than the glaring annoyances. Let me make this one simple. "Doing something for show is against my principles." see's a chance for a dinner for two "I'll take it." What happened? You can see it's plain as a day in England, it's not longer just for show, she was willing to compromise her principles in exchange for a legitimate chance to spend extra time with him. This is why the bloody divorce rates are high nowadays, I've seen one too many relationships with "me, myself and I", and not enough compromise for both parties involved. Many a long time married couples attest to "sacrifices" being made simply because spending time with the one you love is a priceless commodity compared to going solo within a relationship. Then what happened next? She asked him if he's got a problem with that, he said he's fine with it as long as she's fine with it, and then, she proceeded to ask him afterwards about the dinner. She didn't force it on him, because he was down with it. They both came to an agreement. Doing the interview no longer became a way to show herself as "the sister of Tabane, strongest in the land!" (which she did not take advantage of that either), but it was a way for her to spend time with the dude. I thought we've seen it plenty of times in anime before, some guy's were willing to go blind for the one they love, or risk the destruction of two worlds just for some zettai ryouiki action , why is it suddenly revolting when a girl decides on a decision? And she get's criticized for this? Who wants to bet this happens to Charlotte, and everybody who is everybody goes on cheering "whoohoo she got a one up on the competition!". Double standards my foot, I eat double standards for breakfast. |

Houki seemed to me a person who places high stakes on her principles. Imagine if Cecilia let her family's fortune go for Ichika - That would be a hefty sacrifice indeed and I'd respect her tenacity, but also be disappointed since she's trashing her important things in exchange for a guy who may or may not even reciprocate her affections.
A character letting for of their principles in exchange for a loved one can be done very well, but the way IS did it is by making it appear that her principles will always be second to Ichika and nothing else - There's no conflict in it at all since the show makes it clear that she'll forgo any beliefs she claims to have when Ichika's involved. And again, the scene was played for humor so let's not argue too much on it. I made it rather clear that I'd be shaking my head regardless of who did that scene, so no I'm not under the 'Charu moeeee!' double standard.
