Yes!


Time for a character highlight!

Moe - You'd be forgiven for thinking she was just a one note fangirl thirsting after Mari, since, y'know, that's kind of all she was up until episode 6.



Then this happened. It's such a flat, knowing delivery that comes out of nowhere for her. While she immediately backs down afterwards, it's kind of strange for her to have this reaction when nobody else in the entire cast does, but then a few episodes pass and you start to forget about it because, hell, she's a supporting character to a side character. Then King Torture happens.

Even after having her finger reduced to a bloody nub, she's willing to be mutilated to save Mari. She doesn't cry, she doesn't whimper, she stares Torture dead in the eye and demands he release her, in spite of Mari's "protests." Overcome(or even just shocked) by her courage and selflessness, he just lets her go, but not before pointing out that Mari begging her to save herself was not only a complete crock of shit, she wanted Moe to die for her. In character for Mari, of course, but after that reveal we get this.



She doesn't even flinch. She's not even really sad. She just knew. She has always known exactly what sort of trash human being Mari is and she's still willing to die for her. No points for choosing such a terrible person to love, but hand this girl some sort of medal for turning into a full blown character in the span of two freaking minutes with the biggest pair of nads in the entire cast.

Yes. I do feel this character with a grand total of three minutes of worthwhile screen time deserved a bit of discussion. Why do you ask?
