On the subject of Koujaku's route and how personal trauma can lash outwards hurting your loved ones, I am absolutely in love with how the theme bleeds into the meta of the narrative
Koujaku's pain and misery are so all-encompassing it overshadows the main plot!! Getting into Oval Tower doesn't just take a backseat it's shoved out of the way once they enter Platinum Jail. Like all the routes surround the budding romance between Aoba and the decided love interest, but compared to Koujaku's they feel much more balanced between character conflict and plot progression, while his is purposefully skewed — especially if you play straight from the beginning.
Like yeah it's his route so he's the focus but Koujaku's past is at the crux of every single issue, it's the source of every conflict within the story. Aoba has his own problems but none of that gets aired out until the end of the route. Aoba's every waking thought revolves around his concern for Koujaku and their relationship hanging in the balance. He barely has time to think about anything else.
The bad end results in both being eaten alive by Koujaku's torment (Koujaku figuratively, Aoba literally), but it's a combination of that and Aoba's own baggage that leaves him as Shiroba. And!! Even then!! We still don't scratch the surface because Koujaku's self-destruction demands SO much attention.
It even reflects in their designs!! Koujaku's beast form draws your eye with bloody reds, striking animalistic features, and bold complicated tattoos. Shiroba's (though still striking on its own) mostly starch-white appearance looks plain in comparison.
During the events of Platinum Jail Koujaku becomes a whirlpool of despair and misery that sucks up everything in its path. It's like being trapped in the event horizon of a black hole.
It consumes everything, even the narrative focus!
